Ian:
Throughout the train ride, I kept hold of Clementine's hand.
Seeing her in that cage earlier had twisted something inside me. At that moment, I decided I would go with her instead of leaving her behind.
It was something I needed to do. I truly believed my life and happiness existed wherever she was.
I realized it when I walked up to the cage, gripped the bars, and looked at her.
That was it.
She was my happiness. She was what I wanted for my life.
When we arrived, I forced myself to stand and helped her up carefully.
She felt lighter in my arms, as if she had lost weight over the past few weeks from whatever she had endured.
I lifted her and jumped down from the train, landing on the platform.
Then I set her down gently and cupped her face in my hands.
She stared at me in confusion, as if trying to recognize me.
That hurt.
Footsteps sounded behind us.
I turned quickly, expecting fleshmingos.
Instead, I saw Haiden, Troy, Leysa, and Fauna.
