Josephine Rogers POV

I watched as Michonne attacked the men and Merle. He fired at us and a shot scraped my knee. I cried out. I then ran with Michonne. 


We saw a car. I then saw Maggie and Glenn and Optimus. I ignored Michonne's whisper of warning. "Mommy!" Maggie turned. "JOSIE!?" She ran to me. "Hey. What's wrong, baby?" She asked me. "I-I was attacked." I sobbed. "It's okay. Sweetie."

She handed me to Optimus. He hugged me tightly. Maggie then came back out with some bandages. Optimus kissed my head and held my hand as they stitched my leg. 

"Daryl's gonna be glad we're bring you back. He's been looking for you." Optimus told me as Maggie and Glenn looked inside. 

They came back out with the stuff. 

Optimus then helped me stand. "And where is it y'all good people are calling home?" Merle said. 

Optimus instantly put me behind me. Maggie and Glenn pointed their guns. Optimus then stood next to Maggie. Suddenly Merle shot at us. I ducked and he grabbed me. 

Glenn and Maggie and Optimus pointed their guns but stopped when Merle had his gun to my head. "Hey, hey, hold up, buddy, hold up. Put that gun in the car right now." Merle ordered. 

"Let go of her! Let go of her!" Optimus snarled. "Put the gun the car, Son! Put it in."

We got in Optimus's truck and we drove to Woodbury. 


I was crying as I heard Merle beating up Optimus's holoform. 

Optimus spat out blood. Glenn was tied up and watched as his son was beat up. "You know, you're a lot tougher than Jo said." Merle said. 

Optimus glared at Merle. 

I heard what sounded like fighting in the other room and I was crying. 

I heard the door open and I saw the Governor. He stared at me. He then grabbed his knife. I felt scared. He cut off our ties. Maggie was in the room with me too. "May I?"

He sat down. "We'll take you back to your people, and explain this was all just a misunderstanding. She has to stay because she escaped." The Governor said about me. 

"No. She is my daughter and she comes with me." Maggie snapped. 

"Stand up, please." He told me. I refused. "Stand up." I stood up. "Take your shirt off." He told me. "No." I said. 

"Take off your shirt or I bring Optimus's hand in here." I stared at the man horrified. I took my shirt off. He motioned for me to continue. I then took my bra off. I covered my chest with my arms. 

He took his weapons belt off and he walked over and stood behind me. He pulled the chair out from behind me. He touched my hair and then he slammed me on the table. I cried out. 

"So you gonna talk?" He snarled. "You do whatever you want. And go to hell." I snarled. 

He smirked. 

I then screamed. 

Optimus heard Josephine screaming in the other room and Maggie was begging for the Governor to stop.


I was crying as the Governor yanked me and Maggie into the room Glenn and Optimus were in. 

Optimus saw I had no shirt or bra on and my jeans were ripped. He then charged "Hey!"

"Drop it!" The gun was pointed at me. "We're through with games. Now one of you is going to give up your camp." The Governor sneered. He put the gun to me and neither of them spoke. He pointed the gun at Optimus's temple. "The Prison!" Maggie stuttered. "The one near Nunez?"

"The place is overrun." The Governor said. "We took it."

"How many are you?"

"12. We have 12 now."

"Twelve people cleared that whole prison of biters? Huh?"

He then walked back over and I was crying. He looked at Optimus. He then gently rubbed my cheek. "Hey. It's all right." He hugged me and I stayed away from him. He then shoved me at my brother. 

I stumbled into Optimus arms and hugged him. He hugged me back as I sbbbed on him. 

Maggie and Glenn walked over and they rubbed my back. 

"Okay. Hang on." Optimus took off his hoodie. "Here." He gave me his hoodie to wear and I put it on then I hugged him again. 

"What did he do?" Optimus asked Maggie. "He... He forced himself on her... And he raped her." Maggie sobbed. I let go of Optimus and hugged Glenn and Maggie. They both wrapped their arms around me tightly. 

"It's okay, baby. You're okay." Mommy told me softly.
