~John's POV~

"So this sickness" Mimmi asks as we are in the temporary council meeting, well it was temporary until Phoenix woke up. Now we are discussing this sickness that killed one, good thing Mimmi and Greer took away the virus that turns people into walkers before anything got out of control "how did it come?"

"Through livestock" Hershel tells us

"So the animals" Phoenix sums up, she thinks this over "Okay" clapping her hands "this is what is going to happen. Those who were working on the bricks go to the livestock and check each of them over, Mimmi will deal with the animals that are sick if there are any. Greer will get the people ready to leave, specifically the pregnant women and children since we need to make sure their healthy. I will get those who aren't helping with the livestock ready to leave the prison. Bryce informed me when she got back that the Governor has people again, an army since they have guns. They outnumber us with the guns but with the magic we might stand a chance but we need to get people out of here quickly" that man should have been killed right away. But these humans and their save the guilty, I mean Maggie called him out on every lie and still he was let off the hook "let's get this thing done as quickly as possible"

"Phoenix?" Felix speaks up, we look at him "if I may?"

"Go ahead" she waves her hand

"Let's leave some of the livestock here" he says, we stare at him. Why? "These humans, from what Bryce and I saw don't know the truth. If we leave some of the animals behind, it'll be for the humans. Show that we were here but that we left too quickly, only the Governor has been by so only he knows how many animals we really had"

"We should also" Carol says "leave some of the vegetables and fruit, if we don't then they might thing someone is off"

"Alright" nodding her head "everyone get going, who knows how long it'll be before he attacks" as everyone leaves, Demetri and I stay for our mate "aren't you guys going to help?"

"We will" Demetri promises "but first, how are you feeling?"

Rubbing her brows "Tired, who knew being a leader was so stressful"

"If it helps" I offer "your the best leader I've seen in a long time"

She smiles "Thanks" getting up "now, we need to get going—right now"

~Two Days Later~

"Do we have everything?" Phoenix asks as us supernaturals are around Phoenix, Rick is here also with Charles. We are outside, we packed up as much as we could, some of the animals are still here in the pens as well as vegetables and fruits but the witchy herbs Phoenix has.

"We do" Charles nods his head "we've divided ourselves so that we have weapons on each bus" yes, with how many people we have—as needed three coach busses. Then we have the RV, two cargo vans that have so many supplies, one semi truck with the cargo unit that holds the sleeping animals, lastly we have the Phoenix's truck.

"Good" nodding her head. We hear something and look over to see a tank is brought just as a tower is blasted "Everyone, remain calm! Stay safe" we see a bunch of cars around the tank with humans and their guns.

"Phoenix!" The Governor yells "come down here, we need to talk!"

"Don't" Demetri shakes his head

"We're leaving" Phoenix says "but if he tries to attack we will kill him" she goes down to the group. God, if your listening...please keep my mate safe.
