Nick was about to say something to Clementine but, he heard someone.

“No! Help!”

Nick's eyes widened and he ran towards the yelling.

It was Eddie, he was stuck in a fence, his arm was stuck.

A lurker was walking closer towards him.

But then, he saw Jane on the ground, another lurker was on top of her.

She was holding it up so, it wouldn't bite her. Her knife was out of reach.

[ Help Eddie ]

[ Help Jane ]

Nick ran towards Eddie, Clementine was behind him.

“It's okay, Eddie. I am going to help you.” Nick said

Eddie nods his head, trying to look calm but, he was scared.

Nick starts pulling Eddie's arm.

“Nick!” Clementine yelled to get his attention.

Nick looks up and sees that the lurker was getting closer.

“Shit…” Nick said in a low voice.

He goes through the hole in the fence and gets his hammer out.

Clementine tries to pull Eddie out while Nick kills the walker.

Nick walks toward the lurker and hits it's knee. It falls to the ground.

He hits it in the back of the head until it's dead.

He goes back towards Clementine to help her.

Nick pulls Eddie's arm out, ripping his shirt.

Eddie's arm was cut but, not too bad.

Nick helps Eddie up “It's not too bad of a cut but, we'll ask Carlos to take a look at it when we get back.”

Eddie nods his head and hugs Nick.

“Thanks for saving me, man.” Eddie said

Nick smiled “Just don't get stuck next time.”

Eddie smiles back at him.

Nick realizes they forgot about Jane. His eyes widened as he turns around.

But, the lurker wasn't on top of her anymore. It was dead, on the ground, next to her. Her knife was still out of reach.

Nick looks and sees Luke is next to her.

Luke saved Jane, Nick was happy about that.

Nick ran over to Luke with Clementine behind him again.

Nick and Clementine nearly knocked him over, they hugged him, tightly.

“Hey guys, I guess you missed me.” Luke said with a smile, he was also, almost out of breath from the unexpected hug.

Nick and Clementine stopped hugging him, they both smiled.

“Hate to ruin the moment but, we have to get back to the others.” Jane said as she picked up her knife.

“Then, let's go.” Nick said

They all left to head back to the others.
