"Rest girly." Daryl's voice echoed through my head as the darkness that succumbed me lifted away and was replaced by a red glow. Squinting my eyes open I sat up on a wooden bench and rubbed my sore neck. It must have been where Daryl pressed on my nerve before I passed out.
Peering around I realized I was in the church and I was not alone. A boy cradled a baby in his arms and the ebony woman with the katana sat across from me. Finally noticing my consciousness the ebony woman stood up and knelt down by me.
"Who are you?" Her dark eyes narrowed.
"Who are you?" I said back with a snake like hiss.
Before she could answer the boy beside her did. He must have been fourteen years old. "I'm Carl Grimes and this is my sister Judith. This here is Michonne. We are gonna take care of you until the others decide if you can be trusted."
"Thank you Carl, Judith and Michonne." I rose to my feet. Michonne stood in front of Carl protectively. "I'm Ruby Smith." I stuck my hand out for them to shake. Carl shook my hand right away but Michonne was very cautious.
"How old is she?" I knelt down and smiled at the cute angel in front in his arms.
"Eight months. Would you like to hold her?" Carl asked. Before I could answer Michonne pressed her katana blade against my neck. "Carl! She could be dangerous!"
Carl looked me in the eye before answering back. "I trust her."
I smiled at him and mouthed 'Thank you'. He smiled back and handed me his adorable sister. She had beautiful baby blue eyes and blonde hair.
"I can tell you two are related." I spoke to Carl.
"Really? How?" He beamed.
"Same eyes and shape of nose. And both of you laugh at my silly faces." I stuck my tongue out at him which earned a laugh from the boy. Michonne clearly did not like the matter one bit as she glared at me.
"What are you doing Carl?" I heard Rick walk in. I turned my head to the door as Rick, Daryl and two others walked in.
"Carl?" Rick asked, his brows knitted together. That's when he noticed I was holding Judith. "No! Do not touch my daughter!"
Rick ran at me. I quickly handed Judith to Carl and held my hands up in surrender as Rick charged at me, pressing the barrel of his gun into my head.
"Why did you let her touch Judith?" Rick angrily asked.
"It was my choice Dad. I trust Ruby!" Carl stood up.
"No one can trust her Carl! And how did you get her name? Miss Ruby wouldn't give it up to Daryl." Rick said.
"I simply asked her. Dad, trust me on this. I've got a good feeling about her." Carl smiled at me which I gladly returned. I sure owed this kid! After a few moments Rick dropped his gun from my temple. I let out a sigh of relief.
"You can stay here for the night and we'll take turns watching you." Rick said sternly. "But first you're going to answer a few of my questions. Are we clear?"
"Crystal." I glared back at him. "What do you want to know?"
Rick eyed me cautiously, "How many walkers have you killed?"
I furrowed my brows in confusion, "More than I can count."
Rick nodded his head, "How many people have ya killed?"
