Blood splattered across my face and my mouth opened wide. I watched as blood spurted out of Hershel's neck and he crumpled to the ground but not before hitting me and landing in front of me. I screamed at the top of my lungs and I heard Maggie and Beth do the same. My heart raced as I looked at Hershel laying in front of me dying. I started to hysterically cry when a few shots fired. I heard the Governor cry out in pain and I just sat there. Shots were being fired but I didn't care. I laid my head on Hershel's chest and I heard him speak softly. "Go Hailey. Get out of here." He said between breaths and I laid down on my stomach and rolled until I was out of the range of gunfire. 

I was still crying as I roamed around trying to find Michonne. I circled around until I stopped dead in my tracks. Hershel had scooted his way to the middle of a few cars but the Governor had found him. I couldn't look away as he raised the katana up and sliced Hershel's head off. I couldn't move. I coulndn't breath. I just sat there. I quickly ran to the other side of the car and puked my guts up. I felt a hand on my back and they rubbed back and forth so I knew it must be Michonne. I started crying again and she stood me up. 

"Go through the fences. In your cars. Get you guns. We go in. Kill them all."

Michonne helped my into one of the cars that was empty and we waited. I was still hysterically crying and Michonne pulled me into her for a hug. We waited until the Governors people were through the fence and we got out only to be surrounded by walkers. I stayed in the car while Michonne sliced and got rid of all the walkers so I could get out. I didn't have any weapons on me so I ran and grabbed a automatic from one if the guys who we killed and grabbed his handgun too. I checked and it turns out he only fired one shot from the automatic and nothing from his handgun. 

The tank was blowing up the prison walls, shots were being fired everywhere, people were being killed left and right. Michonne and I dealt with any walkers that got to close to us. We got close to the bus when I started firing from behind and killing them. I looked up through the wood pallets to see Daryl was shooting at the people next to the tank but I noticed a whole bunch of people were behind him. Wait... they are limping. "DARYL!! WALKERS BEHIND YOU!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs but I guess he didn't hear me. I watched as a single walker jumped on him as he fell. My breathe caught in my throat and I waited for what seemed like hours when it was only a few seconds. 

I watched as the walker stood up and started towards the tank and I fell to my knees. Daryl. My brother. My entire family was dead. Gone. Erased from existence. I started to cry loudly and my vision swirled around me. I leaned over and threw up again. Everything slowed down. I could see the bullets when they were fired and I watched as they hit either their target or the wall. I heard Michonne call to me and I looked over to see the Governor was choking Rick and Rick was nearly dead. 

We both ran toward them but I was a little ways behind her because of my leg. I watched as she shoved her katana through the Governor and Rick rolled over to catch his breath. I walked over to the Governor and pulled out his handgun, not wasting my own bullets. I shot once in the chest where Michonne had stabbed him. "That was for Merle." I shot again. "That was for Daryl." I shot again. "And that was for me you fucking asshole." I said as I was crying. I threw his gun to the ground next to him and I watched as he struggled for breath. He still wasn't dead. Michonne and I helped Rick up. "Carl. Where's Carl?" Rick asked gasping for breathe and he started to walk towards the prison when Michonne said 'I don't know." I went with him and we helped each other since we were both shot in the leg. Michonne stayed back with the Governor as we walked away. 

We made it up to the gate that was no longer there and we both called out for Carl. Rick tripped and fell, bringing us both down. We quickly picked ourselves up and kept walking. Rick called out to his son as I looked at the prison. There were holes everywhere. The whole thing was on fire. There were walkers just roaming around. There were two walkers in front of us and before I could even raise my gun one fell to the ground. Then the other fell to reveal Carl standing behind it with a shot gun. 

I started to cry and let go of his dad so he could hug him. Rick cried as he held on to his son. Carl let go of his dad and grabbed me and picked me up in a hug. I threw my arms around his neck and kissed him deeply. I snuggled into his chest fro a few short seconds and he let go. I stood to one side of Rick and Carl stood to the other and Rick spoke up. "Judith? Where is she?" He asked and Carl shook his head. "I don't know." We started walking when I saw the baby carriage near the overhead bridge... or the remains of it. We walked closer and I was the first to see it since i was the closest and I stopped dead in my tracks but Carl and Rick continued. I closed my eyes as I heard Rick start to cry. A silent tear fell down my cheek when I heard a walker slowly approaching. 

I saw Carl pull his shot gun up and shoot the walker in the head. Then again when it fell. And again. Then he ran out of ammo and just started shooting empty cartridges and Rick called out to him. He started hysterically crying and I tried not to cry but the tears escaped anyways. "We gotta go. Shhh. It's... It's over." Rick said still crying and he reached out for me and I walked over held onto his arm in a weird embrace. 

We walked out of the prison and we just kept going. I heard a gunshot in the distance and Carl and I both started to turn around. 

"Dont look back. Carl. Hailey. Just keep walking."
