Enough about Russell! How about getting finally closure on Shephard's characters arc?
Also now that I think about it maybe the bonus episode shouldn't be added to the Season's 3 story... It might attract more new readers as a stand alone and it might be easier to keep track on the updates... Dunno...

This was fantastic. Vince's fate pissed me off in a good way. It would have been easy to keep everyone together and happy so that element was a breath of fresh air.
I never truly believed Annie was dead. She's too important and precious. Didn't stop those chapters from being sad and emotional as fuck though. The final chapter where Becca and Vince are staring at a grave and we're being lead to believe it's Annie's... reference to Hot Fuzz? Immediately thought of that when I read it.
Good stuff and looking forward to whatever you've got in store for the future.

Also I have two (count 'em, two) chapters of the bonus episode done.

I've written 2.5 chapters and I've done all the portraits for the characters that appear on the key art.

To hold everyone over for now, I've got the first episode of the non-canonical Season 5 ready! The rest will be spread out in release
Episode One: Pursuit of Happiness
It has been nine months since Vinceās death. In that time span, the Outpost has been standing tall, although only three new people have joined since the Brock incident due to the groupās uneasy trust in other people. The first person is a woman named Gretchen, who is now in a relationship with Maya. The second is a man named Louis, who had lost all of his old group before coming to the Outpost. The third is an old friend of Annie and Beccaās, the old man named Bennett. He decided to stop living on his own when bandits raided his town, so he eventually found the Outpost. Itās also worth noting the fates of Gary and Cole, who went missing during the Brock incident. A little bit of time after Vinceās death, Cole was found as a walker and was put down by Thomas. Gary was never found, so his fate stays a mystery to this day.
Also, during the time skip The Outpost received radio frequencies from many miles away talking about a safe place called āEden.ā Becca, Russell, Thomas, Sully and Maya had all left to go and find Eden.
The episode starts with Annie writing in her diary a letter to Vince and Wyatt. As she writes, she thinks about how much she misses the people that left for Eden, especially Becca and Maya. She still remembers the promise that Becca gave her before she left a week ago when she said that she would come back alive. After Annie is done, she goes out to get some food. At the room they call the cafeteria, she gets some food and sits down next to Bennett. Annie talks to the man about her worries and he reassures her that Becca and Maya will come back unhurt. Emily comes to sit with them and tells Annie that she misses Sully a lot, but she has faith that he will come back alive too.
Annie goes out to the front walls of The Outpost with Emily where they see Rodd taking watch as Natalia, Ryan, and Max help him out with other things. After talking with Talia, Lucia, Gretchen, and Louis come out to talk with everybody else. Gretchen also expresses how worried she is about Maya. Lucia asks to speak with Annie in private. They go into a private room and Lucia tells Annie that she truly believes they are now safe, that she thinks that all of the horrible death has finally stopped. Annie is so happy to hear this.
Rodd calls out to everyone and tells them that a truck is coming up to the gates. They keep the gate closed as everyone walks out. The truck comes to a stop at the front of the gates, then three men and a woman come out. Everyone keeps their guard up, but they are shocked when one of the men tells them that they are from Eden. The people from Eden tell the group that the others from the Outpost made it to Eden, and that now they are offering them a home there. After talking and collaborating, the group agrees to go to Eden, although Lucia is suspicious as to why they didnāt bring one of The Outpost members as proof. Nonetheless, Lucia, Annie, Emily and Gretchen decide to go with the people for Eden to see how it is, leaving behind Natalia, Rodd, Ryan, Louis Bennett, and Max for now.
During the ride, the leader of the four people from Eden introduces himself as Greg, and so Annie, Lucia, Emily, and Gretchen also introduce themselves. The truck brings the group of four to a large community that is blocked on all sides by cement walls. They enter through a gate with caution and see many house with people walking around, some women and children were even seen too. Farms were also spread throughout the land with crops. Annie, Lucia, Emily, and Gretchen are introduced to the leader of Eden, a woman named Diane. They also meet the gun trainer and combat enforcer, Connor, a man who reveals that he was once in the military. This makes the group nervous, remembering the last military people they met had tried to kill them.
Finally Annie, Lucia, Emily, and Gretchen are reunited with Becca, Thomas, Sully, Russell, and Maya. Becca tells Annie that she has already picked a house for them to live in with Maya, Gretchen, and Lucia. Sully and Emily also live together in a house.
Connor tells them that he is sending out some more people to go back and get Natalia, Rodd, Ryan, Max, Bennett, and Louis to bring them to Eden. Lucia volunteers to go with them so that The Outpost group will believe that Eden is a safe place. Connor also tells them that they will be taking The Outpost as an emergency armory. As some people leave with Lucia for the Outpost, Annie and Becca meet Lia, Dianeās 16 year old daughter. They bond, and Becca looks forward to having Natalia at Eden so the three of them can be best friends.
At nighttime, Lucia returns with Natalia, Rodd, Ryan, Max, Bennett, and Louis. Connor then explains that The Outpost is now being used as an armory, and that the group will not have to do any work for the first couple of days, but eventually will have jobs later on. They would also be given weapons when the time was right.They all pick their houses and settle in. As they all go to sleep for the first night, they are happy to be able to sleep on a real bed again.
Thomas goes out for a walk since he canāt sleep. He doesnāt feel very good, and heās twitching every couple of seconds. He hears something on the streets between the house, so he goes towards it. He is surprised to see a Max bent over, vomiting blood all over the floor. He picks up Max and runs him to the doctorās building, where they look at him and try to save him. Lucia comes to join Thomas and support him as the doctors claim that Max died from some sort of virus, although they say they donāt know what virus it was. Thomas and Lucia tell the group about it in the morning, and to be cautious of other people that may have the virus.

I posted this in the original ITF3 thread but I figure this one is in more peoples' participated threads so I'll post it here too. Make sure you get the other thread in your participateds for future chapters though.
