What Happens Next

Who I am

'Then I think I'm Negan's daughter'.
'Then I think I'm Negan's daughter'.
'Then I think I'm Negan's daughter'. That's all that went through my mind as I sat in the RV, everyone was bringing supplies from The Hilltop in to bring them back to Alexandria. "Jessica, Glenn wants you," Michonne says placing a box inside, "for what?" I ask, "it's a surprise, he's in the infirmary" she says with a smile.

I got out of the RV and went to the infirmary a bit confused. I went inside as Glenn smiled to me and gestured to come. Maggie was laying on a bed as I went to them as I looked at a screen. After looking closely, I saw they were doing an ultrasound on my sister-in-law. I smiled more looking at the screen and then looked the Glenn as he put an arm around me and I put my hand gently on top of Maggie's and Glenn's. There truly is greatness in horror, I was seeing my unborn niece or nephew. Tears came to my eyes as I thought hard about everything.

Glenn told Maggie he'd meet her in the RV as I pulled Glenn aside, "what they guy is saying, there's more than that satellite station.. where I was brought to, that was a full on factory," I say softly looking at him, "they were bringing me to a factory, those are probably just outposts or something," I say. Glenn sighed softly and nodded, "we'll figure everything out, I promise," he told me.

We went to the RV and sat down and leaned against Glenn. Michonne looked at me a bit, worried, I glanced back to her and then looked back to the ground staying quiet.

I was quiet throughout the whole ride back home. I looked out the front window as we pulled up to the gates of Alexandria. I stared at the gates as they opened.

When the RV was stopped, I saw Carl as I quickly went to the door swinging it open and ran to him as we embraced. "Jessica?!" He says as he hugged me tight and close, "Carl, I promise I'm ok," I say looking at him pulling slightly from the hug, "I'm so sorry I left, I thought you were right behind me," he says looking back at me, "Carl, it's fine, I'm ok, that's all that matters," I smile at him as we pull from the hug, "how did they find you? They went to The Hilltop," he says as he looked at other people getting off the RV, "I was there when they came. I spent the night there, and when I was getting ready to leave, they showed up." Carl nodded hearing my words, he seemed much more assured that I was ok and safe.

I was with Carl at the church after finding out Rick was holding a meeting about the attack they were planning on the satellite station, "Jessica, I need to talk to you after this," Rick says looking at me. I nodded in agreement as he went onstage to talk. We were listening to him as he told everyone what they were doing and why they were doing it.
"Glenn told me something," he says looking down at me after the meeting and we were alone, I looked up at him a bit worried, "what'd he say?" I say softly, "he told me that you said there's more than just the satellite station,"
"yeah.. when the people took me, they brought me to a tall factory. There's more than we think Rick."
"We still have to fight these people."
"Rick, if we start this and there is more than we think, someone is gonna die."
"We'll take care of them before that can happen, you know we will, you've been with us for that."
"There's a difference between people and walkers Rick..!"
"We've taken on people like this before, we can do this, just don't doubt us."
"Fine, but let me tell you this Rick. If my family gets hurt because of your ignorance, I'm not sticking around so I can die too." I walked away and sat on my porch until the sun went down.
I looked out seeing around when I saw a figure out in the distance heading to the wall. I stood up looking closely as I saw them hop over.
