TIME IS SHORT
AS THE DAY IS LONG.
"WHAT LIES AHEAD"
WE TRY AND REMAIN STRONG!

THE GROUP SPLITS
LEAVING THE CHURCH.
MOST HEAD BACK TOWARDS THE HIGHWAY,
SHANE, RICK, & CARL CONTINUE TO SEARCH!

THEY COME UPON A CLEARING,
SPOTTING A DOE.
SHOT HEARD AROUND THE WORLD,
RICK CRIES, "NOOOOOOO!"

IN AN INSTANT
A LIFE CAN BE TAKEN.
ACCIDENTS HAPPEN
THAT LEAVE YOU SHAKEN!

RICK MUST SAVE HIS SON,
A BLEEDING CARL IN HIS ARMS.
RUNNING HIS DAMNEDEST
GOTTA MAKE IT TO THE GREENE FARM!

OUT OF BREATH
RICK CONTINUES TO RUN!
FINALLY REACHES THE GREENE FARM
"PLEASE, PLEASE, SAVE MY SON!"
