Narrator's POV

Scarlett, Rick, Daryl, Carol, and T-Dog had been up since sunrise, moving the overturned bus from in front of the main gate, and they had even begun moving their cars

"Okay, let's get the other car in. We'll park 'em in the west entry of the
yard." Rick says as Scarlett climbs out of her truck

"Good, our vehicles camped out there look like a giant "vacancy" sign." Daryl says

"After that, we need to load up these corpses so we can burn 'em." Rick says as he motions to the corpses littering the yard

"Gonna be a long day." T-Dog says

"You can say that again." Scarlett says as she wipes the sweat from her forehead with the back of her right hand

"Where's Glenn and Maggie? We could use some help." Carol says

"Up in the guard tower." Daryl says as he points to the tower

"Guard tower? They were just up there last night." Rick states

"Glenn! Maggie!" Daryl shouts before the guard tower door opens and a shirtless Glenn pokes his head out

"Hey, what's up, guys?" Glenn asks as he buttons his pants up earning laughs from the small group in the yard

"You comin'?" Daryl asks

"What?" Glenn asks causing them to laugh harder

"You comin'?" Daryl repeats himself before Glenn turns to Maggie who is still in the guard tower

"Come on, we could use a hand!" Daryl shouts out

"Yeah, we'll-- We'll be right down!" Glenn yells down to them before the small group on the ground walk over to the green car

"Hey, Rick." T-Dog says from behind the group causing them all to stop in their tracks and turn their attention to him before they each follow his gaze and their eyes land on the only two prisoners left

"Come with me." Rick says before Daryl, Scarlett, and T-Dog follow him towards the prisoners, Scarlett's set of keys to the prison clipped to a belt loop on her pants, clinking with each step she took

"That's close enough." Rick tells the prisoners as he, Scarlett, Daryl, and T-Dog come to a stop

"We had an agreement." Rick adds as Scarlett right hand rests on her holstered Glock

"Please, mister. W-we know that." The blonde guy says as Glenn and Maggie exit the guard tower

"We made a deal. But you gotta understand...we can't live in that place another minute. You follow me? All the bodies-- people we knew. Blood, brains everywhere. There's ghosts." He says

"Why don't ya move the bodies out?" Daryl asks from beside Scarlett, his hands on his hips as he glares at the prisoners

"You should be burning them." T-Dog says
