Hank - On the Road/Town - Enrique and Turisa
"That'll work. You can get to higher ground, on a building maybe, keep an eye out. We don't have any way of communication, just our voices and weapons. If you see anything, anyone who isn't us, you shoot - we'll hear it. Me and Turisa will search any stores and vehicles, there's bound to be something useful," Hank instructed as he continued down the road with his hands on his belt. He looked straight ahead, never wavering from the mission.
Above them, the sun evaded the clouds and shined brightly upon the three. Its heat waves struck down from atop and seemed to burn each individual's skin cells right off their muscles. Hank brushed off the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, squinting his eyes so the light doesn't irritate them.
With the town still out of sight, the group continued their struggles. "I know it seems difficult right now, this situation. But we've been through worse. That guy back there (he spoke of Claiborne) made a vital mistake," Hank started, pausing his little interactive speech dramatically.
"........He didn't kill us."

Abram - On the Road/Van - Heather, Jon and Jess
Tapping on the steering wheel with his index fingers, Abram looked through the open window gap into the empty streets abroad. His mind was on the group that left towards the town. In his mind, Hank was becoming dangerous - not only endangering his own life, but that of the groups. How? Well, his vision and actions implied that he would kill anyone to keep his people alive. Thing was, Abram was unsure who his people were.
Abram looked over at Jon who now sat in the passenger's seat. Then he turned to the ladies in the back, making sure they were preoccupied with themselves. Upon turning back to Jon, he scooted a bit closer to the man. "You see it too correct?" he asked him in a light tone in regards to Hank's sudden bestial rages.
"Aiming for that girl, not letting Joe come with us.................................we could be next. I do not want to hurt anyone. I don't want to leave him behind, but we can't have blood on our hands anymore. That's NOT who were supposed to be. Back in Baton Rogue we....." Abram paused, recollecting the memories of the events that unfolded during the battle.
".....we fought your people. We had to save ours, and we killed yours. There are no words that could make up for our actions. I am not asking for your forgiveness. But I want you to know that I know what I've done. Seeing Samantha back there opened my eyes to much more. I know there is light in this world," he said, giving a glance back at Jess' child Benjamin.
"But we must prevent having to kill people. There are other ways, and you know this Jon. I want you to help me. Help me fix Hank. Floyd and Heather, they say he was a good man and I believe this to be true. We just have to bring him back. He reminds me of an old friend of mine.......the man was a good leader, a soldier, brother and friend. I miss him dearly....."

Hank - On the Road/Town - Enrique and Turisa
Upon reaching the small town, walkers already roamed the seemingly abandoned town. Without time wasted, Hank ran towards the side of a local store, hiding on its wall with Turisa and Enrique. He peeked outward and gazed at the surroundings. Turning back to the others, he took a knee and took a breath before speaking.
"There aren't many of them. We stay close and take them out, use our knives, no gunfire - we don't want to attract anymore of them. There seems to be a two story office building there on the left, once we take these walkers out, Enrique will move to the second floor and provide cover. If you see anybody and have the shot, you don't hesitate. Like I said earlier, Turisa and I will scavenge the other stores and look for food, water and gas.
Hank then stood up and pulled out his small blade. "Now," he commanded, quickly rushing out there in a silent jog after the walkers. There were about seven to eight of them, but they were scattered around not bunched up together. Staying close to the deserted vehicles, Hank sneaked up behind on of the dead and jabbed his knife through the back of the beast's skull. Hank aided it's body to the ground before going after another one.

Alvey - Sleep Inn - Rose, Edward and Children
Upon hearing Rose's concern, Edward was fast to respond in attempt to ease her worry. "In that case, we will send Rick with you. He doesn't have much experience out there, but it's best that he learns now instead of later."
"I'd rather take my boy, Rick talks too much. Fucking guy can't keep his mouth shu-"
"Mr. Turner please!" Edward erupted, putting his hands to his nose bridge. Alvey let his head lean towards an elbow and smiled at the man before starting to laugh. He scratched his beard then ran his hand through his hair.
"Language, yes, yes," Alvey played, turning to his wife before putting his hands on her shoulders and squeezing them a bit as to massage them. Slowly he started to guide her towards the room.
"So can I tell Rick that he will be joining you?" Edward asked as Alvey and his family made their way down towards their room.
"Sure, just put tape over his mouth beforehand Edward."
"That'll work. You can get to higher ground, on a building maybe, keep an eye out. We don't have any way of communication, just our voices and weapons.

Upon reaching the room, Alvey was quick to drag his duffel bag from under the bed start packing. He opened the drawer to the night table and pulled out his loaded handgun, putting it in the back of his belt. Upon looking up at his wife, he could see the brewing look of disapproval. Sighing, Alvey scratched his eyebrow before giving her a warm smile. He then extended his hands for her to come to him, which she did. Slowly he ran his hands up the side of her arms until they were placed on her cheeks, which made her close her eyes in playful discomfort.
"I'll be fine," he said, giving her a quick little kiss. He moved his hands down to the side of her neck which allowed her to open her eyes. Alvey looked straight into them without blinking.
"Don't worry please, you make me worry. I'll be just fine, I always am."
