A/N: I'm going to try to make chapter 30 a really, really good and a long-ish one. And I want to start preparing for it now. So if you don't prefer a little drama, please comment. I'll do my best to keep all of my readers happy! Thank you!

I stared at the sight in disgust. I wanted to gag. Maggie had crushed Michelle's skull by hitting it uncountable times with a gun. Maggie looked indescribably angry. She was bearing her teeth while staring at the woman she had killed.

I looked at Carol, who's hand was on the door, ready to push it open. I heard foot steps shuffling down the halls outside, and I knew Maggie and Carol heard it too. They ignored it. Maggie jogged over to the man, Mike, who was lying on the ground.

She untied the rope that was cutting the circulation on his arm that was keeping him from bleeding. Blood poured out of his arm as the pressure was released. Maggie put her ear up to his mouth, only to hear faint snarling.

"He's turning." She cried out. We grabbed our weapons and ran outside. We spotted Paula and Perri down the hall, who had not noticed our presence yet. We walked quietly to the nearest hiding place.

I watched Paula as she passed by. She was headed toward the room that me and Carol were in. She knocked the door open, and then yelled in anger. I closed my eyes in fear, thinking that it would make them disappear. I felt two hands grab on to my arm. I started to cry in panic.

"We have to go, and you need to be brave." Maggie whispered. I nodded my head in fear.

"We need you to be brave. Do not make any noise, and we'll make it out of here." Carol motivated. I nodded no.

"Simone, sweetie. You need to be strong." Maggie held onto my shoulder.

"I can't." I cried with my voice cracking.

"Think about everyone who misses you right now. You can't see them again unless we escape." Carol said, trying to motivate me once again.

All I could think about was Carl and Enid. What would they think if I became a coward and chickened out. What if I died? Would they even care? I had to be strong to maintain their trust.

"Okay." I wiped my tears. I walked forward, showing that I was ready.

We walked out of our hiding place, making as less noise as possible.

A fist swung out of nowhere, hitting Carol. We all got our guns out as we aimed. Silence. Silence for countless minutes. Aiming, waiting for someone to come out. Maggie was kicked to the ground. Carol ran towards Maggie, helping her to get up. Carol told me to keep aiming, but my hands began to shake.

I saw black hair in the corner of my eye. I turned my head and shot. The woman had a knife. She ran toward me, ready to stab. I tried to shoot, but there were no bullets. Carol didn't notice, due to the silence of the incident.

"Carol!" I screamed. I was pulled into darkness. I heard the door slam shut.

"Shhhh..." The woman shushed. "Be quiet, and nothing will happen."

"Carol!" I yelled. I heard pounding on the metal door. I looked over to see Maggie and Carol. I clenched my fists, swinging them at the woman. I knocked her to the ground soon enough to get out my knife. I didn't want to, but with all my strength and power, I hit her skull with the knife, killing her.

I ran to the door, unlocking it. I ran out. I looked at Maggie. Her stomach had a slice through the middle of it.

"Oh my gosh, Maggie! Are you okay!?" I hugged her.

"I'm okay. Carol said that the cut wasn't deep enough to harm the baby." She informed me.

"Okay." I shrugged.

A fire started in the middle of the hallway. We ran behind the medal door, which would block the flames.

It went on for countless minutes, until we heard footsteps. We walked out from behind the door, grabbing our weapons. We walked forward very slowly. I kicked the door open.

It was the group. Maggie cried tears of joy, as well did Glenn. They pulled each other into a hug.

I laughed with a smile on my face. I looked at Rick. He looked happy. I ran over to him.

"Hi!" I giggled.

"Hey." He greeted back.
