When she awoke in a place she's never been in before, she was very confused. Until the memory came back and she realized this was the place she was looking for, Atlanta's prison. She had heard from the Governor that there was a group of people living here, so she ran away from that hell to come here. That's why she was so exhausted. Phoenix used all of her energy getting out of Woodbury just to find out she would need it again for the run to the prison. While she was looking around the cell, an older man came in. He stared at Phoenix in surprise seeing as, the way she fell, she shouldn't have been up. He estimated the time being in her "coma" state to be around five days. Not one day.
"Oh, hello there miss. I didn't expect you to wake up this early."
Phoenix just sat there in silence, staring at the old man in wonder. Was he the doctor of the prison? Or was he just someone labeled as the "doctor".
"Anyways my name is Hershel. And you are?"
"Phoenix Dixon." She said quietly. Her anxiety slowly creeping in.
His eyes flashed with recognition.
"I see. While I don't know why you're awake right now, I do know that our leader, Rick, will be here soon to ask you some questions. To see if you can stay, if you want to of course."
The youngest Dixon just nodded her head. "Can you take these cuffs off me at least? I'm not going to do anything without my weapons."
Hershel nodded and unlocked the pieces of metal around her wrist.
"There you go. I'll be right back with Rick."
She watched him walk away, and not even four minutes later he returned with "Rick".
"Alright. I'm going to ask you a few questions. Those will determine if you can stay or not."
"I understand," She said quietly.
"How many walkers have you killed?"
"I don't keep track anymore. I lost count at 300."
"How many people have you killed?"
She gulped, knowing that she had to kill some to survive and make it out of Woodbury, "Seven."
Rick was quite for a moment.
"Why?"
"They tried to kill me, they did horrid things to the women at the place I was staying at. It was either kill, or be killed."
Rick nodded, knowing what she had meant, "What's your name?"
She looked up, a certain glint in her eye, "Phoenix Dixon."
Ricks eye widened considerably.
"You may stay if you wish, I'll show you to the cell you'll be staying in. Now it's with my son, I hope you don't mind."
She rolled her eyes yet nodded anyways.
----------------
When they approved the cell, Phoenix saw a boy, about her age, cleaning his gun.
"Carl, this is Phoenix, she's going to be your cell mate for awhile."
Carl looked up, and all Phoenix could she were breathtaking features. Beautiful, baby blue eyes, black, almost raven colored hair, and an almost petite nose. Overall he was beautiful. Phoenix could feel herself becoming twitterpated which his looks.
"Fine, don't expect me to be nice to her though."
Rick nodded, with a disappointed look.
"Phoenix, we'll have someone here to see you soon."
The girl simply nodded and climbed to the top bunk.
Carl rolled his eyes and Kaye's down on the bottom.
Phoenix slowly fell asleep thinking about the boy's looks.
