Mi Amor ~ Daryl Dixon

Chapter Sixty-Five

When Adrianna and Daryl came back, Maggie informed them on what happened. Gregory had shown up with information. He claimed that the saviors were going to be setting up roadblocks at a certain time and Negan was going to be with them. Of course, with it being Gregory, the group made a back up plan. That man couldn't be trusted.

"We'll stick to this road, keep to the trees. We'll get there quicker." Daryl pointed to a map. "Plus we can keep an eye on the road that way." He said.

"Yeah, if they're planning anything, we'll see it."

"You think we can trust Gregory?" Michonne asked the group. "What he told us?"

"I locked him up inside the house. He knew I wouldn't let him walk around free, he knew he was coming back for that." Maggie informed. "He doesn't believe in anything but himself, he'd have to believe the saviors a whole lot to send us into a trap and think it would work for him." She explained.

"Unless Dwight didn't tell him." Daryl suggested to the people. "That asshole could be setting us up."
Everyone sighed in defeat. They knew they didn't have any more choices. They had to be sure that if Negan was there, they didn't miss the chance. Morgan walked away from the group abruptly and his widened eyes worried the group. They turned away when Carol followed after him.

"You really think it's a set up?" Adrianna asked Daryl as they walked away.

"You don't?" He fired back.

Before Adrianna could answer, a loud crash and a grunt sounded out. Everyone looked over and watched as Morgan was breathing heavy above young Henry. His eyes were wide like he didn't know it was the boy and he looked at the saviors that were prisoners walk inside. Maggie moved to him carefully and he shook his head. "They were-"
He stopped as he continued to deeply look at the prisoners. "They were coming in." He breathed out.

"I asked Maggie if we could clear the wall from walkers." One of them spoke up. "We drew them away so we wouldn't have to worry about em when we rolled out." He explained.

"He did." Maggie confirmed.

Questioning eyes stayed on Morgan and worry filled their bodies. "Let's keep getting ready everyone." Adrianna ordered. "First teams going in twenty." Everyone moved back to what they were doing when she finished. Adrianna shot Rick a quick look before weakling away. He needed to have a talk with Morgan now, the man wasn't in the right of mind.

The group waited quietly in the trees. They had a perfect view of the road so if Gregory was telling the truth, it'll be easy to take them out.

Low rumbling made everyone's head raise along with their weapons. Carol raised the binoculars and watched as a group pulled up. They piled out of the cars and pulled the walkers with buckets on their heads over to the road. Carols hand raised in the air and she waited for the perfect moment. When everyone was in sight, she dropped her hand. The group popped out and shot the people down. They dropped the walkers next and began searching the trucks.

"Good people, something was found." Ezekiel called out. Everyone walked over and looked at the paper that was in his hand.

"What is it?"

"A list and another map." He said as he read the paper. "And what appears to be other facts."
The group waited patiently for him to read it out.
"They're lining up saviors on the old mill road. That's where Negan will be."

"We have to get to Negan before they find out what happened here." Rick replied.

The groups began dragging the bodies out of the road. Adrianna pulled the walkie out and hit the button. "Maggie." She called over the device.
