I decide to take guard on the east tower, I grab my binoculars and scope out the area, I see Daryl and Rick killing Walkers in the walkway of the cell. I scan out some more and look out over the field, I see the bushes on my left shake and I grab my rifle and quickly get ready to blast a Walker away but nothing comes.
I've been on watch all day and it's just beginning to get dark so I decide it's time to head inside. I'm walking down the spiraling stairwell when I hear a soft clink, I look down to see a grenade and I jump in a forward motion sending me hurling down the steps. I catch myself just as I hit the floor, I grab my rifle and sprint through the thick debris and outside, I see the governor and his car pulling away and a white and red box truck come barreling right through our fences, it flies past me and I pull put my gun and run up behind the bus next to it.
The car beeps and the back is opened, Walkers come walking out by the dozens and I see a person in riot gear exit the car before trying to make a run for it. This undeniable rage builds up in me and I shoot them in the leg, they collapse and a few of the Walkers attention goes to them, I shoot those Walkers and begin to drag my new prisoner into safety, whoever it is better enjoy it while it lasts because I'm gonna beat the shit out of them later.
I remove the face mask to find a Puerto rican guy underneath, I knock him out and furiously drag him inside and to the farthest cell before locking him in and storming back outside. I scope out the surroundings and sure enough they all left. Well besides the 3 dozen or so Walkers now loitering in our field.
Once I'm 100% positive there is nobody left I storm inside to find everyone in the main room all shaken up and talking over a war plan. I throw my gun on the counter and grab a towel before heading to the sinks in our makeshift bathroom and wash the blood of my face, arms and legs. I stare at my reflection on the mirror, "Jade, are ya ok?" Daryl asks, I stand there with overwhelming built up anger, I stare at my reflection a few moments more before blasting a hole in the nearest wall with my fist.
Daryl seizes me by my arms and pulls me into his chest, "Let me go" I say pounding my fists into his chest. He holds on tighter. My hits become weak and eventually stop, "Are you good now?" he asks concerned, "Yeah. Why'd you let me hit you like that?" I ask, "Because yer already all smashed up an bloody, no need fer more broken bones" he says, I smile in his chest.
I stand there for a moment and think, I turn back towards Daryl and smile before running over and attaching my legs to his hips and sending my lips crashing onto his. He undoes the top 3 buttons on my shirt revealing my bra and kisses my neck, we hear someone's feet shuffling into the room we are in and he sets me back on the floor. I quickly button up my shirt and fix my hair just before Rick shuffles in, "What are we gonna do with your prisoner?" he asks.
That sudden urge of anger comes back again, "I'll deal with him" I say between gritted teeth. I walk back upstairs and unlock his cell to find him awake. I loudly pull up a metal stool and sit down, "What is the governor's intentions?" I demand, he sits there. I wait a few moments and ask again, "He is preparing a war against you guys because you have 2 things he wants" he says "and that is what exactly?" I ask, "Michonne and this prison" he says, "What does he want with Michonne?" I ask, "She killed his daughter, which was a Walker, and then took his eye when he tried to kill her" he says.
"Why would you work for a man like that?" I ask, "He was providing everything I needed to survive, he has food, water, shelter and lots of protection" he says, "Ok. Answer me this. If I let you have a choice to go back to them of stay here with us, which would you choose?" I ask, "The survivor part of me is telling me to go back but the human part of me tells me to stay here" he says, "You could stay here but you'd have to prove to us that your not going to do any harm" I state.
"I just let loose 3 dozen Biters in your home but yet you offer me the opportunity to stay here, why?" he asks, "I believe in chances" I say, "Would you consider letting me stay here?" he asks, "Yes but your gonna have to make your keep. Starting with those Walkers in our field" I say, "When can I start?" he asks, "I'm not sure what our plan is and I can't let you in on that because you can't be trusted yet" I say apologetically, he smiles, "I can see that" he says.
I get up to walk away, "Also you should know most of the people that are at Woodbury are being forced to fight and would probably want to be here rather than there. The governor has changed... For the worst" he says, I lock his cell and walk away devising a new plan with the evidence I was just given....
