Fear the Walking Dead's Season 3 premiere is quickly approaching, promising to deliver on the cliffhangers offered by the Season 2 finale in 2016.

The biggest mystery following the closing moments of Fear's second season were regarding Luciana's fate. The new character played by Danay Garcia became a fan-favorite as she lead La Colonia and Nick fearlessly. However, she was shot by the apparent new enemy in the closing moments and left with an ambiguous fate.

An exclusive new clip from Fear the Walking Dead's Season 3 premiere reveals Luciana's fate following the encounter with a militia at the U.S. and Mexico border. She has survived the wound but is certainly feeling the pain and being worn down by it. As her and Nick trot through an underground tunnel, she is electing to be left behind while Nick insists he will never allow such a thing.

The Season 3 synopsis for Fear the Walking Dead reads...

"As Fear the Walking Dead returns for season three, our families will be brought together in the vibrant and violent ecotone of the U.S.-Mexico border. International lines done away with following the world's end, our characters must attempt to rebuild not only society, but family as well. Madison (Kim Dickens) has reconnected with Travis (Cliff Curtis), her apocalyptic partner, but Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) has been fractured by her murder of Andres. Madison's son mere miles from his mother, Nick's (Frank Dillane) first action as a leader saw Luciana (Danay Garcia) ambushed by an American militia group — the couple escaped death, but Nick no longer feels immortal. Recovering both emotionally and physically, Strand (Colman Domingo) has his sights set on harnessing the new world's currency, and Ofelia's (Mercedes Mason) captivity will test her ability to survive and see if she can muster the savagery of her father."

Fear the Walking Dead's third season will see a female villain rising into power, as executive producer Dave Erickson pointed out to ComicBook.com in an exclusive interview on After the Dead following the Season 2 finale.
