I woke up to someone snoring in my ear.
I have an idea of who the culprit is.
I sighed and tried to get up but a pair of arms reached out and pulled my back into a warm chest.
"Daryl stop. I have to get up" I giggled
He rolled over reluctantly and I got up and dressed myself.
I walked down as Rick was discussing something.
"Aim I want your opinion on this" he motioned me over
"This is a nice place and all but I think we should go clear out this prison and stay there." he said
"Well it's a good idea, but what if there's too many. I mean with the baby and the children. Lets just say it's hell growing up without parents " I said cautiously
"Alright. How about we go check it out?" Hershel said "I agree this place is nice. But this house is close to a highway. We should at least look at it"
And with that we got a group consisting of me, carol, daryl, maggie, glenn,beth,carl,and rick.
"Alright. Aim you Carl and Beth stay down here and attract the walkers. Daryl and Carol take that tower. Glenn and Maggie take that one. I'll run and shut the gate. Don't let the near me" Rick said
"Alright. 1....2....3!" Carl yelled and Rick ran in.
We started whistling and yelling at the walkers while they were being popped from above.
A bullet landed close to ricks foot and carol yelled sorry.
I muttered rookies as Rick closed the gate and got into the tower.
It was a team effort and as soon as Rick began to attack it was over.
The biters were dead.
The entire courtyard empty other than bodies which we eventually piled in a corner and burned.
As soon as we set up tents and everything we brought Lori and Hershel in.
Rick told us to get some sleep because tomorrow we are going to clear the next courtyard and the first cell block of the prison.
~~next morning ~~
We a got up and ate some dried food we found in the house.
"Alright are we ready . We go in. We get out. Just like when we cleared here except were doing it hand to hand" Rick explained.
We all got positions .
"1....2....3" he yelled and we busted in the gate after securing the lock we started attacking the ones on the ground while Rick ran to the other gate.
There were a couple with fighting gear on but we handled it.
We eventually got it cleared with a lock on the other gate.
Everyone say down for a breather and I just fell out on a picnic table and everyone laughed.
After we were done we got up and started to work on cell block C.
"Alright check out the cells. Kill anything in them " Rick said
I walked into a particular cell and saw a very nice lock pick set and a knife.
I didn't think they'd be of use so I left them.
We cleared out the cells and surprisingly there was nothing in then.
We locked the door that lead to the other blocks and told everyone to come in.
"Aim come here for a minute." Daryl called me over. "I'm not good with cells so we can either split or we can take the wardens area(idk what it's called) up there"
"It'd feel to weird sleeping alone" I smiled at him.
"Hey Aim come here" I heard Carl call.
"What is it?" I asked
"Look at this. I thought you might like it" he said smiling.
I froze where I was standing and my jaw dropped
"That's a Japanese sword set Carl. The long ones a katana. The middle ones a wakazashi. And the small ones a tanto. It looks like a 440j stainless steal." I said getting excited. "Here. You can have tanto. It's very portable." I said smiling.
He took it and ran off to show his dad.
"Damn Aim. It looked like you just gave him a box of chocolate." Glenn said walking up
"Glenn do you not see this shit? It's like my gander mountain I mean seriously." I said sarcastically
"Alright whatever. Daryl your girls crazy as fuck.." he yelled at the wardens area in a song tone
"Keep your hands off..." He yelled back in the same tone.
We all laughed and I picked up the katana and wakazashi putting the holsters around my waist.
Guess I don't need my bow anymore. but what should I do with it?.
I quickly got an idea and ran off to find beth.
"Hey Beth. How would you like to learn to shoot a bow"
