TERMINUS WAS A lie, they weren't a Sanctuary. They were the definition of a human butcher, maybe even rapists too. Now Valerie, Glenn, Maggie, Tara, Abraham, Eugene, Rosita, Bob, and Sasha were stuck in a train car. Waiting to be eaten, was somewhat Eugene's guess at least and then the yelling started. They had heard gunshots the seconds before. "Drop your weapons, now!" The voice they heard sounded familiar to Valerie.
"Hey, doesn't that sound like the leader?" She asked, but got no response. The adults are focused on listening into the conversation, especially Glenn and Maggie. "Now!" The voice yelled again, almost as if the person or the people on the outside of the train car were trying to resist. "Ringleader, go to your left. The train car, go. " He commanded, shouting at this mysterious person. "You do what we say, the boy goes with you. Anything else, he dies and you end up in there anyway."
"Now the archer."
"Now the samurai."
"Stand at the door. Ringleader, archer, samurai in that order." The man commanded. "My son." The man who she assumed was the ringleader since his voice sounded the most close yelled that. "Go, kid." The reader said calmly. "Ringleader, open the door and go in." The leader once again yelled. "I'll go in with him." The Ringleader responded. "Don't make us kill him now." The leader responded and so he decided to go into the car. The four people finally stepped foot into the car and Glenn stepped forward and recognized the man, "Rick?" He asked.
"You're here." Rick repeated as the rest of the group walked up to them. "You're here," He repeated as more of their people stepped forward. "They're our friends." Maggie said. "They helped save us." Maggie further explained. "Yeah." Daryl replied. "Now they're friends of ours." Daryl said, Valerie had a feeling she was gonna be chill with Daryl, the man appeared as a ruff and tuff guy but on the inside he was a big softy. Abraham stepped out from the dark and said, "For however long that'll be."
"No." Rick said, taking a deep breath before making his next move, "They're gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out." Rick said, his hand was pressed against the wall of the train car where he had entered. "Find out what?" Abraham asked.
"They're fucking with the wrong people." Rick told the group.

Some small time has passed and per Rick's orders they began making weapons of whatever they could, even to the point of prying wood from the floor of the train car. "They seemed nice enough, but I was ready to go.We just got out of here, but, damn, it was time to go. When I told them about DC, a wink and a nod from the head asshole in charge, they pulled their guns and it was right back to our regularly scheduled shitstorm." Abraham explained to the group. Everyone asked each other what they needed to know and Valerie pulled a pocket knife from her boot.
"Where'd you get that?" Carl asked her. "Well, cowboy, they tell you to put down your stuff and that's it, they don't pat you down, so boom pocket knife hidden in my boots." Val boosted happily. "That's smart, you think we could use it to pry more wood off the floor?" Carl asked.
