Athena tightened her hand on her gun looking away from the man towards the tree lines trying to see where the people were.
Whoever they were, they knew how to hide. Rick picked up the CB from the ground and pressed it to his lips.
"Come on out." He ordered "Let's talk."
"We're not coming out, but we will talk. We've got a Carol, an Eve and a Maggie." The women said and instantly Athena's eyes went to Glenn and Jisung, both men went pale."I'm thinking that's something you want to chat about. Now we're going to work this out right now, and it's going to go our way."
"Get him up!" Rick yelled and quickly Daryl and Glenn grabbed the bleeding man to his feet pointing a gun to his head "You can see we have one of yours. We'll trade."
"I'm listening."
"First, I wanna talk to Maggie, Eve and Carol. Make sure they're alright."
The radio went silence, before Carol's voice came through "Rick, it's Carol. I'm... I'm fine, but..." Her voice got cut off, before someone else's voice came through "Rick it's Eve. We're fine." So far the teenage girl's voice was the calmest and Jisung couldn't be more proud of his girlfriend "Rick, it's Maggie. We're okay. We'll figure this... Shut up!" The women yelled "You have your proof. Let's talk."
"Alright, this is the deal right here." Rick explained "Let'em go, you can have your guy back and live. You don't have much of a choice or you would have done something about it." He pointed out causing the radio to go silent "Look, I know you're talking it over. It's a fair trade. Just come out, we do it, we all walk away. Do we have a deal?"
"I'll get back to you."
"We can track them." Athena blurted out looking over to Rick "Me and Dad. We can track them. We just need to go to the car they were at and follow from there."
"Are you sure?" Glenn asked his voice cracking at the end.
"We can." Daryl promised.
"We're doing it." Rick ordered placing the CB in the clip of his belt and pointing to Daryl and Athena "Dixon's lead the way."

They headed back to the RV. Daryl and Athena found a walker on the ground. The people had came from behind Maggie. That was what the tracks were telling them. They walked down a hill and they saw they stood on one place.
"Makes sense." Rick said looking down to see where the compound was "From here, we wouldn't se them, but they could see us."
"Rick, try them again. If we hear background sounds, we can know where they could be held." Athena explained.
He nodded his head and pressed his lips to the CB "So have you decided yet? Talk to me."
"You weren't listening." The women echoed form the walkie "I said I'd contact you."
