"We stop that train, they are going to see us coming, radio ahead that we are coming." Rosita explained as they gathered to make a plan.
"Can't leave her there though" Daryl pointed out.
"Maybe there is a way to do both?" Carol looked around as they listened to Carol's idea.
Everyone split and got into position.
Daryl and Theo.
Carol and Maggie.
Gabriel and Rosita.
Maggie and Carol were the first on the train after Daryl blocked the tracks with branches and sticks, causing the train to stop, allowing Carol and Maggie to tie up the driver.
Daryl and Theo made their way around the side of the train sneaking onto the train from the back.
Gabriel and Rosita, taking out the guards within the woods, taking them out one by one.
Everyone waited for the moment where they were all spread out before opening fire on them.
Daryl jumped on top of the cart, opening fire on them as he tried to open the door.
Theo continued to fire at them, but was unable to get a shot.
Maggie and Carol saved them from behind as they took out two of the soldiers before heading back to their post.
However there was one more solider who had grabbed Connie, a gun to her head, making everyone drop their weapons.
However, Connie was underestimated by the solider, managing to elbow the solider off of her, although it resulted in her getting a smack to the face the solider ran for it.
"Go! Chase him down Daryl" Theo told her husband as she checked on Connie.
As the rest of them headed back to the current base, Carol and Maggie brought back the train driver.
He explained how there was a map, a map that could help them find their friends.
Theo waited for Daryl as he arrived back with a concerned look.
"Everyone is okay" Theo assured him as he hugged her tightly
"Please dont!" They heard Carol yell in the back causing everyone to join them where the train driver held a knife to his neck.
"Please, if i help you they will kill me and my wife. My boys will die. Please" He begged as Theo stormed over.
"Hey! No. Okay you don't have to do this. Okay. We can hurt you, just enough to make it look like you barely escaped, they will never know" Theo assured the man who continued to cry and shake with a knife to his neck.
"They will know I lied!" He yelled
"Please. What if they don't kill you, and you have ended your own life, leaving your wife and kids?" Theo made the man think as he cried.
"I can't! I'm sorry!" The man yelled before plunging the knife into his neck
"No!" Theo cried as he was their last hope to find their kids.
"What now?" Rosita asked, scared.
"We head to Alexandia, that's where they will be. Let's stop wasting time and go" Theo snapped as they all agreed.
"Get your things, we are a few hours walk, move out" Theo ordered as everyone spread out.
"You okay?" Daryl asked her as she shook her head.
"This has to work. If we don't find them D" She panicked as he hugged her tightly.
"We will get our kids back. All of them..."
Sorry for the short chapter.
8 more to go:(
I want to make the final chapter perfect, and it will be a long chapter too.
I hope you are all still enjoying the book and hopefully there will be more to come in the future.
Lots of love
