Keep Moving Forward (Sequel To Redneck Lover)

Chapter 16

*Adelyne*

I was looking out the train car door trying to see anything. It hard to be maybe mid morning by now. All of us stood in the train car. No one knew what to do, what could we do? I ran a hand through my hair. Damn we were all sitting ducks.

"There has to be something we can do" Tara said.

I kept my eyes on outside.

"Like what, run in a group and attack?" I asked sarcastically.

"That seems like a good plan, only one we got" Bob said.

I looked at him.

"It's a stupid plan. These people are smart they're gonna have guns. They'd kill us all" I explained to all of them.

"Do you have a better idea?" Abraham asked.

I sighed leaning against the door.

"No I don't."

"But that plan is still dangerous" Maggie piped backing me up.

I looked at her and she nodded which I returned.

"We need a miracle."

We had buried the bag of guns in the woods and now Rick, Carl, Michonne and I peered over the gates of Terminus. It was quiet and slowly we all climbed over the fence and slipped into one of the buildings. It was quiet and we kept walking. Approaching a door we heard a voice.

"Terminus, those who arrive survive."

In the room were people and I woman who was speaking what we just heard into a microphone repeatedly. She stopped short when she seen us. Instantly she took of her headphones.

"Hello."

"Hello" Rick asked.

"Well I bet Albert must be on perimeter watch" a guy said.

He looked to be about average weight kind of nerdy with facial hair. Not much but some scruff. He walked closer and I felt my guard come up instantly.

"You here to rob us?" the guy asked again.

"No, we wanted to see you before you saw us" Rick answered.

The man nodded and looked back at his people then us.

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

Rick nodded at him.

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

We stood there exchanging glances not sure what to say to eachother. I glanced around the room studying trying to see if there was anything unusual.

Gareth chuckled.

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

"Yes" Carl answered.

Gareth smiled and his eyes shifted to him.

"Good. You found it. Hey, Alex."

Just then another man who looked just as nerdy as this guy came up.

"This isn't as pretty as the front. We got nothing to hide, but welcome wagon is a whole lot nicer. Alex will take you, ask you a few questions. Uh, but first, we need to see everyone's weapons. If you could just lay them down in front of you."
