Lee was walking with Mark and Twilight in the woods, hunting for food. They have begun to run out of food as time went on, and needed to find more.

"Man, things are getting pretty tense back at the motor inn." Mark began, still walking forward, "I thought Carly was going to take my hand off when I grabbed for her rations." Twilight did feel bad, as she, Starlight, and Spike could survive off the land by eating grass.

"Can you really blame her? I mean, we're all hungry after all." Lee explained. A bird flew in Mark's line of sight, and he aimed for it.

"Can you take the shot?" Lee asked.

"I don't think its worth it." Twilight added.

"Your right Twi. I'm just hungry." Mark said as the bird flew away. Just then, they heard gun shots out of the forest.

"Was that Kenny?!" Mark yelled and asked at the same time.

"I don't know, but let's go find out!" Lee said, running towards the gunshot.

"Kenny, Starlight!" Twilight yelled as they approached the gunshot.

"Twilight, Lee!" Starlight yelled as they came up to them.

"What happened?" Kenny asked, looking around, noticing a group of kids and a adult in the forest.

"I don't know!" Lee replied, looking at them.

"Please help us!" One of them asked.

"We don't need their help. They might be the group that attacked us! I mean look at those things." The other one said, pointing at Twilight and Starlight.

"We just want to help." Lee told them calmly.

"Please, get me out of this thing!" The guy yelled.

"What the fuck, a bear-trap?" Mark said, taking a look.

"Get back." The taller one said.

"We aren't the people that attacked you. What happened?" Lee asked.

"We ran and were attacked by a group a bandits. Our teacher got stuck in a bear-trap. Please help him." The first one said.

"Lee, there isn't a release latch on this thing." Mark explained. Just then, walkers attacked them.

"Lee, me and Starlight will hold of the walkers. Get him out of that thing!" Kenny said, aiming his rifle.

"Twilight, come with me!" Lee yelled, and Twilight followed him.

"Can you get this off Twilight?" Lee asked.

"Not sure how it opens, if I can see.." Twilight started, but Lee pointed to the bear-trap and showed her where it opened. Twilight begun to cast a spell, slowly pulling it off.

"ARAGG!" He screamed before passing out. With some help from Lee, Twilight manged to get the bear-trap off with little damage to him.

"Quickly, let's go!" Lee said. One of the kids followed them, but the other one was confused and didn't move. Starlight used a magic spell to wake him up and forced him to follow them back to the motor-inn. They didn't plan to keep them, but to help the guy get healed and on his way.

Back at the motor-inn, the group was sitting around, working on the fence, standing guard, or kicking a ball. Lilly was on watch, and she heard a noise and whistled, causing them all to duck, and she pointed her rifle out into the forest.

"Open the gate, quickly! We have wounded!" Lee yelled, having him and Kenny carry the unconscious man. Kat and Carly went to open the door, and Lilly and Larry begun to yell.

"What the fuck Lee."

"What's going on."

"What happened."

"Lee! Lee! Lee!" Lilly yelled. "You can't be bringing more people in here, we have a hard enough time feeding who we have.

"They were wounded, by us. We weren't going to leave them!" Kenny explained.

"Besides, they don't have to stay. We can kick them out once were done." Twilight added.

"I didn't think helping this mans cuts wouldn't have been much of an issue Lilly." Lee added.

"Whatever, leave me out." Carly said, leaving.

"Hey, come see what I drew." Clem said, having the two boys. Starlight simply walked away.

"You come in here bringing more people!" Lilly stated.

"They are survivors like us!" Kenny added.

"Besides, what..." Spike started, but Twilight stopped him.

"Go on Spike, please. I will handle this." She whispered. Spike just nodded and left.

"We helped them, we have to stick together."

"We helped you because you had food, they don't." Lilly told Mark.

"Besides, none of you have the balls to run this group." Larry added.

"Dad, please." Lilly said, and he grumbled and walked away. Mark thought it best the three of them handle this.

"We weren't just going to leave them to die!" Kenny added.

"And you can't go making decisions on your own!" Lilly yelled.

"This isn't a damn democracy. We can make our own damn decisions. Right Lee?" Kenny brought Lee in to this.

"Well, fighting over it won't help anyone." Lee added.

"Besides, your both right in a way." Twilight added, but both to no avail.

"You both have to pick a side at some point!" He yelled, walking away, going to talk to Kat seeing if she could help him.

"You both weren't any help back there." Lilly said.

"You and Kenny need to get over this issue of yours." Lee pointed out.

"Yeah well, since I started handing out rations, everyone hates me now. It isn't easy." Lilly said, a hint of sadness in her voice.

"None of us said it was easy, Lilly." Twilight added.

"You know what, I'm not doing it today. You both doing." She begun, handing them both the food for the day. "Here's today's rations, but there isn't enough for everyone. There is eight food items for eleven hungry people. Good luck." Lilly said, going back to her look out post. Twilight and Lee looked at each other and sighed.

"This is going to be a long day." They both thought.

Author's Note
