You're in The Walking Dead (Season 4-Season 6)

Crossed (S05E07)

One morning you woke up, you felt well rested, for once. You got up from sleeping position and sat on the pew. You rubbed the sleep from your eyes. Sasha was making a lot of noise, as she was chopping up the pew across from you, which is the reason you woke up.

"Morning sunshine." Daryl said, from across the room. Yep, he came back a couple of days ago... with no Carol. He explained to you that he found the people that took Beth and that they took Carol, too. The reason he knew that it was the same people, was because he found someone from inside and brought him back with him. Noah was his name.

Tyreese was taking out the organ pipes and handing them to Daryl. You walked over to them to see if they needed help. "It was—it was good you weren't here for it." Tyreese told Daryl. "She hanging in there?" "No." Tyreese said looking over at his sister. You grabbed two pipes from Tyreese and followed Daryl outside.

"Are you gonna take the cross, too?" Gabriel asked, standing next to the organ pipes sticking out of the ground. You laid the pipes on the porch and handed one to Daryl. As he was about to push on into the soil, he responded with, "If we need it."

A few hours later, Rick decided to go to Atlanta and find Carol and Beth. The group said their good-byes and left. You, Daryl, Noah, Sasha, Tyreese and Rick loaded up in a box truck and went on your mission to find your people. You sat in the back across from Tyreese and Sasha.

Tyreese stared at Sasha. She looked back at him, "Yeah?" "You know I've been there." "I know." "Bob, he would have wanted –""Don't. I'm sorry. Please, don't. Okay?" Tyreese looked at her, with comforting eyes.

"I've been there, too. My sister was not a very bright person." you stopped, letting out a little huff. "She went outside at night. She had NO combat skills what so ever. When she came back inside, I knew... I just knew something was wrong. She got bit on the chest. There was no way to save her. My father was out on a run at the time. I put her down myself." you said, looking down at your boots. The rest of the car ride was silent.

A few miles later, you came to a warehouse. Rick turned off the truck and you all got out. You did a clean sweep in and out of the place. 'CLEAR' each one of you said. you met back in the main room. "At sundown, we fire a shot into the air. Get two of them out on patrol. Then once it's dark enough that the rooftop spotter won't see us, we go. We cut the locks on one of the stairways, take it to the fifth floor. I open the door; Daryl takes the guard to the ground." Rick explained to the group. "How?" Tyreese interrupts.

Rick looks at him, "He slits his throat. This is all about us doing this quiet, keeping the upper hand. They're not expecting us. From there, we fan out. Knives and silenced weapons. We need to be fast."

He drew out a map in the dirt on the floor. He marked an X where each person would be. "Tyreese, Sasha, take them. Daryl, (Y/N), you take care of whoever is in the kitchen. I got Dawn. If they're smart, the rest of them will give up. Then it'll be six on three. Seven on three once we get a weapon to Beth." Rick said, as Daryl and Tyreese exchange looks.

"Thirteen on three. The wards will help." Noah spoke up. "That's best case. What's worst case? All it takes is one of those cops going down the hall at the wrong time. Then it's not quiet. All hands on deck. We're talking about a lot of bullets flying around." You said. "If that's what it takes." Sasha said, monotone. "It's not. If we get a couple of her cops alive out here, we do an even trade. Theirs for ours. Everybody goes home." You said, looking at Rick for his opinion.

"Yeah, I get it. And it might work. This WILL work." Rick said, getting close to you. "Nah, that'll work, too. You say this Dawn; she's just trying to keep it together, right?" Daryl interjected, asking Noah. "Trying and doing are two different things." "You take two of her cops away, what choices does she have? Everybody goes home. Like she said." You looked at Rick, as he stared at Daryl.
