The Dead World

Thirty Seven ~ License Plates

The walk was quiet, she'd noticed the tension between Rosita and Abraham but choose not to mention it instead she just kept walking passing the marker for route 16 they all saw that the road was indeed blocked and right there parked off to the side of the road was an RV and a smaller car.

"He was telling the truth" Michonne smiled taking in the cars.

"I did say he was" Phoebe smirked and Michonne rolled her eyes at her in humour but a pair of walkers stepped out of the forest.

"I got 'em" Abraham called out.

"We got them" Rosita walked forward the pair killing the two walkers, Abraham had a close call but was covered by Rosita.

"Thanks" he smirked but it fell from his face when Rosita ignored him instead walking back to stand beside Phoebe who winced at the scene, it didn't take a genious to see the pair had broken up whatever they were.

"You ready Red?" she asked moving to search the RV, he nodded stepping in when she opened the door Rosita followed him in while herself and Merle went to check the second car leaving Oscar and Michonne to keep watch.

Phoebe checked if the car was working, which it was while Merle checked the boot and rear.

 "We're gonna get these branches cleared and we'll drive this back to the barn" Michonne walked up beside the car looking at Phoebe who nodded and followed her out.

"I'm going to walk up, Aarons team member is out here somewhere maybe they'll come out" she walked up ahead looking around for someone but there was no sign of anyone so once the roads were cleared they drove the two cars to the barn, Rick and the others emptied the cupboards from the RV.

"This, this is ours now" Rick held up a can looking at Aaron.

"There's more then enough" Aaron nodded sighing gently.

"It's ours whether or not we go to your camp" Rick added.

"What do you mean? Why wouldn't we go?" Carl asked moving forward looking between his father and aunt.

"If he were lying, or if he wanted to hurt us...But he isn't and he doesn't! We need this, so we're going, all of us" Michonne looked around the room taking in everyone "Somebody say something if they feel differently"

Heavy silence flowed through the barn.

"I don't know man, this barn smells like horseshit" Daryl looks at Rick while Phoebe scoffed amused.

"Yeah, we're going" Rick gave in to the majority Phoebe gently clapped Michonnes back knocking their hips together she winked when Michonne looked at her with a smile.

"So where are we going? Where's your camp?" Rick asked turning back to Aaron.

"Every time I've done this, I've been the one behind the wheel driving recruits back. I believe your good people, I'd bet my life of it but I'm just not ready to bet my friends lives just yet" 

"That's fair" Phoebe nodded as she moved forward "But for our safety you're not driving, so if you want to get home you'll have to tell us how" 

"Go north on route 16" he turned back to Rick who marked the map in his hands.

"And then?" Michonne asked moving beside Phoebe.

"I'll tell you when we get there" Aaron shook his head and Michonne sighed.

"It's fine, this will work it's a compromise" Phoebe smiled happily at Michonne who relaxed.

"We'll take 23 north...You'll give us directions from there" Rick calls towards the three of them, Phoebe couldn't help but roll her eyes before she caught herself, she knew why he was being like this she did and after the cannibals she was relieved to know he was being cautious.
