Becca's Story II: The Spilt

Chapter Six: The New Group

The woman had brought us to the people that walked passed us a couple of minutes before we had ran into the woman. She took our weapons and she told me she would give mine to the runner of the group she is bringing me to and wont be giving Lucy's gun back unless the runner of her group says yes. The woman said her name was Paula and we told her out names, "we're gonna drop you and the baby off at the group, and your sister at one of the camps we have," Paula said. I looked out the window as we pulled up to the group, "the name of the place is Hill Top, now lets go," Paula said as she had me get out of the car, "Paula, what are you doing her?" A guy asked coming out of the gates, "I found some people back in Georgia, there was three of them but Negan wants to take the older one, so we're giving you guys the little girl and the baby because we know you'll make good use for them," she said, "let me talk to Gregory," the guy said and went back inside, "go say bye to you sister and then you're going to leave and here are you weapons," Paula said handing me my gun and knife as Lucy came out. "Becca, you stay safe and not cause trouble, ok?" Lucy said, "you too, I love you Lucy," I said, "I love you too, and you keep a good eye out for Glenn ok?" she said, "Lucy I can't do that, Glenn is still in Georgia, we're in Virginia," I said. "Gregory said that he'll take her," the guy said coming back out, "good, I gave her back her weapons in case you want to take them from her, but have fun with her," Paula said as she headed back to the car, "let's go girly." she said to Lucy, "I love you Lucy," I said hugging her, "I love you too Becca," Lucy said back and gave a kiss to Alexis and went into the car. "my name is Paul Manroe, but you can call me Jesus," he said as I turned around, "my name's Rebecca, but just call me Becca," I said, "was that your sister?" Jesus asked me, "yeah, ands is my baby sister Alexis," I said looking up at him, "if you don't mind, Gregory wants to hold on to your weapons for the sake of the group," Jesus said, "I'll give you my gun, but not my knife, a very important friend dropped his knife and I don't want to lose it," I said giving him my gun be giving you a room, so we would like it if you kept the knife in there," he said, "sure" I replied. Jesus brought me inside and I looked around and I saw tons of growing food and everything I was so surprised, "I'm gonna show you to your room but then I would like it if you put the knife in there and then I will take you to Gregory, we have a doctor so I would like to have him give you a check-up, to make sure you aren't bit or anything. Were you sick recently in the passed couple of month?" He said and then asked, "yes, I was, I'm still a little sick but getting better. My group, we were in a prison about a days trip from here by foot, but almost everyone was sick and if it was really bad for someone, they died, my brother and I were two of the lucky people, but I don't know if he is alive, our prison was attacked yesterday and everyone in my group was separated, I only got out with my sisters." I said, "well Becca, I promise you'll be safe here, unless Negan come rolling in," Jesus said, "who is Negan, I heard Paula talking about him, who is he?" I asked, "in the beginning when we first started this place, Negan came rolling in and told us that once a week members of his group will come and take supplies, at first we said no and he killed a 16 years old boy with a bat wrapped in barb wire," Jesus said, "is that what he's gonna do to my sister!?" I asked, "I don't think so, only if she doesn't listen or he finds no use for her, but if he doesn't he isn't that big of killing, he only does it when he has to, at least that's what he claims," Jesus said. After he said that I got very worried about her and Jesus had brought me to my room and I put my knife in there and then he brought me to Gregory and he had asked me about myself and important stuff that he would need to know. Then when Jesus brought me to the group doctor, he told me I was no longer sick and doing a lot better so I was happy there. "Gregory told me that we was gonna find a way for you to pitch in during the group and wanted me to ask you what you're good at," Jesus asked me, "well, I'm good at searching for supplies," I said, "well then I'll talk to Gregory for you then, if everything goes right, then you'll be going on runs with me," Jesus said as we got to my room, "well Becca, you have a nice night and I'll see you in the morning," Jesus said, "good night Jesus," I said as I walked into my room shutting and locking the door. I layed down on my bed and started thinking wishing my family was back together, I was wishing I was still with Carl, Rick, Michonne, Maggie, Glenn, and that Lucy was still here with me. I looked over to the side where a small crib for Alexis was put. Jesus had said that I was lucky that they had found a crib earlier and had brought it just in case. Soon I fell asleep and slept in late because I was waken up by a mad crowd of people storming through the rooms pulling everyone out of bed and a guy pulled me out of my bed and brought me outside. "So, you're the new girl, my new member's little sister, don't you have another one?" A man said as I was brought to him, "she's still asleep," I said looking at the man and my face had worried and scared written all over my face, "oh don't worry, I didn't hurt your sister, and I promise I wont hurt her or you, unless either of you decides to be stupid, and I told her the same thing," he said, "oh, and in case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm Negan, and I wish Paula brought you in stead of your sister, I can see the bravery and intelligence just by looking at you," Negan said, "so, where's the supplies for my survivors?" Negan said looking at everyone, "I don't want to have to show to you people what happens when I don't get what I want again, do I?" "Negan, I promise we'll get you what you want, but please let the girl go," Jesus said, "how about, I let her go when I'm ready, but I for sure want my shit, and I might be a decent person and give her back when I get my shit," Negan said, "fine, I'll help gather your things and be back very soon," Jesus as he walked away with a group of people. "So, Paula said you had a group prior from this, where are they?" Negan asked looking at me, "no, I haven't seen any of them in two day, we were in a prison but then someone broke into it and destroyed it," I said. While I was saying that Negan looked at my arm with the scar from the Governor, he saw it because while I was leaving my shirt got caught on barb wire ripping my shirt. "what happened here?" Negan asked pushing up the sleeve of my shirt, "a while ago I was kidnapped by my group's enemy and he scared that in my arm," I said, "damn, that's not very nice, especially to a little girl your age," he said laughing. It was about a half hour later and Negan had been talking to me the whole time and then Jesus brought the supplies over to Negan and his people and they took their stuff and left. "You ok Becca? He didn't hurt you or anything... right?" Jesus asked, "yeah, I'm ok, he didn't hurt me," I said, "I saw he was looking at that scar you have on your arm, I didn't want to ask but when I saw him ask about it and was able to tell him so easily, do you mind me asking?" Jesus asked, "no I don't, it's from someone who attacked my group, he kidnapped me while I was trying to save my brother and my sister-n-law, when we took me cut this into my arm, at first I didn't get what it meant saying 'this is not over', but now I do, because it's been almost two years, and none of this had ended yet, making it not over.... meaning... none of this will ever be over, because this isn't over, and it will be a long time before it is over," I said looking at Jesus. He looked at me and the look he gave me he knew I was right, "Gregory said you'd be able to go supply searching with me, your first day is gonna be tomorrow, but I'm gonna tell you, you need to be quick and on your feet, and there's gonna be a lot of running, and wearing heavy clothes that cover up your body," Jesus said, "ok, but I know a way to keep them from coming at us, a friend showed me, cover ourselves in walker guts and they wont come after us, no matter how close, and the walkers wont be able to smell you," I said, "well maybe at one point we'll have to do it, so good call," Jesus said. The day went by quickly and I did what I had to do for the day and took care of Alexis and she hasn't been this happy in a while by far what I could see of her. I also started becoming good friends with the people in the group, and there was a boy about the same age as Carl, making him a year older then me and he seems like a good person and a good friend, at least for the fact that I've only known him for a day. My technical first day at the new place was pretty good, and I actually think I'll be able to make myself at home here, at least is I can't find my family.
