A few days later. At the camp near the bridge.

I looked at Justin's dead body in front of me.

People were going crazy over it.

I didn't kill him though.

Jed "Guess they're gonna execute every last one of us! Just like Justin! "

Regina "Not if we have guns, too. "

Laura tried to hold some people back " Hey, hey, you guys! Come on! No, no, no, no! No! "

Rosita held a woman back "Back off! "

Alden got in between the saviors and my people " Hey! Hey! Stop this shit! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! "

Everyone calmed down.

Alden "We're gonna find out who did this, and we're gonna make sure it never happens to us again, - all right? "

Jed asked pissed off ""Us"? You're not one of us anymore. "

Alden ""Us" means all of us."

Jed punched Alden in the face " Go shovel that horse shit to whoever killed Justin! "

Carol put a hand on his chest and he eyed the gun on her belt.

Jed "I thought you were supposed to be our leader. "

Carol "Enough. Turn around, all of you. "

Jed"No can do, Cee. Why don't you go ahead and yank that Roscoe, pop me right here? It's better than worrying about getting it in the back."

Our people took their guns out.

Laura "We don't want this. Hey, we just need to protect ourselves. "

Daryl " No guns! "

We looked at Daryl who was standing on some wood.

Jed "That 'cause you're the one took out Justin? "

Mike "Nah. My money's on garbage lady. "

They looked at Jadis.

Regina "Revenge for Simon's play, sure. "

D.J " No. It's him. Finishing what he started. "

Then he grabbed an ax.

Arat rushed to him " Hey, stop. It's gonna go too far."

Daryl shook his head " Nah. It won't."

Then he aimed his crossbow at D.J and Mike.

D.J." Maybe it's both of them. Come on."

They stepped to us.

Suddenly Dad rushed through us with his horse "Everyone back off! Right now! "

Arat grabbed the ax from dad.

Laura " All right, we are not doing this. Let it go."

Alden " I'll talk to Rick. I'll try and find a way to make everybody feel safe, all right? "

no one said anything.

Jed scoffed and walked away.

Dad "Start the redirect. Pair off to work the grid. "

Then he got off the horse and turned to me "you go talk to Daryl"

I shook my head "it wasn't him"

Dad "you sure?"

I looked at him.

I walked over to Daryl and sat down next to him.
