Tessa Grimes has been through a lot in life. To a miscarriage, a divorce, the dead walking the earth, and even thinking her brother Rick had died. Needless to say, she has been through her fair share of feeling fear and sadness, but nothing could prepare her for what was about to happen. With everyone kneeling on the ground Tessa was looking toward Rick, who seems to always have the answer, relying on him to say what to do next. Tessa sat between one of her closest friends Abraham and Michonne, trembling from fear. As a little girl, she suffered from severe anxiety and this situation didn't help the fact.
She looked over towards her nephew Carl who looked completely unfazed. He send her a reassuring smile which Tessa returned. After a few minutes of complete silence among the group, a man, who they previously came across, starts to step toward the RV.
"Alright! It's a full boat, let's meet the man!"
Once the door of the RV swings open, Tessa could feel the power and authority of the man who appears. She also becomes completely uneasy once seeing the weapon on the man's shoulder. A baseball bat covered in barbed wire.
"Pissing our pants yet? Boy, do I have a feeling we're getting close. Yup it's gonna be pee-pee pants city here real soon."
Tessa's eyes never left the weapon on his shoulder, but once she realized the sound of his footsteps walking towards the group, she quickly looked down. As if he could hear all the thoughts running through her mind, Abraham reaches for her hand trying to give her a sense of comfort. When they first met they completely hit it off and he became her person as well as her becoming his. It never became anything romantic, just two people who loved and were always there for one another. He was like her second brother.
"Which one of you pricks is the leader?"
"This one, he's the guy"
"Hi, your Rick right? I'm Negan, and I do not appreciate you killing my men. Also when I sent my people to kill your people for killing my people, you just killed more of my people. Not cool. Not cool. You have no idea how not cool that shit is, but I think you're gonna be up to speed real shortly. Yup, you are so gonna regret crossing me in a few minutes. Yes, you are.
Negan. The man who was supposed to be dead. Not too long ago Rick had made a deal to eliminate the threat who was known for taking supplies from communities. The Saviors. Right away Tessa disagreed with her brother. Not wanting to be the cause of death of many people. She did not want to spill bloodshed. Despite her disagreement, her brother went on leaving Tessa to stay behind in Alexandria.
"You see Rick whatever you do, no matter what, you don't mess with the new world order and the new world order is this and it's really very simple. So even if you're stupid which you very may well be you can understand it. You ready? Here it goes pay attention. Give me your shit or I will kill you.
"I will kill you". Those very words were enough to send chills throughout Tessa's body. She knew this man wanted revenge. That's exactly why Tessa told Rick not to go through with his plan, knowing there was a possibility it could backfire, and that is exactly what happened.
