Nicole's P.O.V.~

We have been walking for days now, and I was getting tired. We have been walking since this morning. I haven't gotten hardly any sleep these past few days at all. When we were walking Rick suddenly stopped. When I looked to where Rick was looking I saw Terminus. I was so thrilled. Maybe i'll actually get to sleep, and eat some good food. Rick put a bag of guns outside the gate, and buried them just in case. We climbed over the fence, and made out way into Terminus. We walked into a room with a lady announcing something over a telephone or a radio wanting people to hear that they have a group a sanctuary. We walked in with Rick saying hello twice. The woman I guess was pretty freaked out. But then some guy started talking to us telling us we had made it. 

"Whelp, I bet Albert is on perimeter watch. You here to rob us?" "No. We wanted to see you before you saw us."

"Makes sense. Usually we do this where the tracks meet. Welcome to Terminus. I'm Gareth. Looks like you've been on the road for a good bit."

"We have. Rick. That's Carl, Daryl, Michonne, and Nicole."

"You're nervous. We get it. We were all the same way. we came here for sanctuary. Is that what you're here for?"

"Yes."

"Good. You found it. Hey Alex! This isn't as pretty as the front. We have nothing to hide, but the welcome wagon is a whole lot nicer. Alex will take you. Ask a few questions. Uh... but first we need to see your weapons. If you could just lay them in front of you."

Rick hesitated a little bit. I have a bad feeling about this guy and this so called sanctuary "Terminus". But I went with the group. 

"Alright." "I'm sure you understand." "Yes I do."

The guys come over and start patting us down making sure were not hiding anything. Alex goes over to Daryl to pat him down and he starts talking to Daryl about the fight that he got into to. 

"I'd hate to see the other guy." "You would." Rick said. 

The guy went over to Carl to pat him down and was still talking. 

"He deserve it?" "Yes." Carl said. 

Rick looked at Carl in concern. I feel the same thing Rick does. I don't know what's wrong with Carl, but I could relate we were almost raped, and killed. Gareth started talking again. 

"Just so you know we aren't those kinds of people, but we aren't stupid, either. You shouldn't be stupid enough to try anything stupid. As long as everyone's clear on that we shouldn't have any problems. Just solutions. Okay."

Alex starts picking up our weapons and handing them to us, but when he gets to Daryl Daryl snatched his up before Alex could touch it. Alex looked at him with a smile and continued to pick up the others weapons and hand them to us. 

"Follow me." Alex said. 

We started walking out the door when Daryl asked him a question. 

"How long has this place been here?" "Since almost the beginning."

We walked over to a lady behind the grill, and she was grilling something that smelt good.

"Hi, heard you guys came in through the back. Smart." You'll fit right in here."

Rick started looking around as did I. 

"Hey Mary? Will you fix these guys up a plate?" 

"Here." Mary says. 

she hands it to Carl. I start to look around. I notice that they have a few of our stuff but I don't think any of it. I look over a little bit, and see Maggie's backpack. Then I look to the right of that and see Daryl's poncho that he had given to Maggie. I look back at Rick, and see him looking at the same things I see. He and I look at the guys pocket, and see the pocket watch Hershel gave Glenn. Rick walks up to Alex, and throws the plate out of his hand, and I smack Carl's plate down making him pay attention. We get our guns out and point them at the people but we are far too outnumbered. They take us and out us in these train carts. When we get in there there are other people in there as well. When I look around to see who the people are I realize that it's our group. I see Maggie, Glenn, Bob, Sasha, and some people I don't know. We all hug each other, and  then Rick looks out the side of the door, and says something. 

"They're fucking with the wrong people."
