Alexandria Part Two

Chapter One

Dear Diary,

We stand next to Rick and the others Alexandrians; the quarry was infested by walkers. The trucks are blocking the exists making it harder for the walkers to get out.  However, I watch in shock and nervousness as a truck teeters on the edge of a cliff.

If that fails, we're all doomed. "What do we do?" I whispered to Rick.

"We have to wait. We need to go through the dry run with everyone or we can all die." He told me and is sighed. That would be all I got from him and it wasn't what I wanted to hear. We needed to do something to stop it from falling.

Rick starts talking to himself as I walk away but I turn back as the truck plummets to the ground unleashing the walkers.  "Let's turn the dry run into the real one!"Rick yelled and we all went scattering about putting Ricks plan I to action before it got way out of hand.

Daryl went off in his motorbike as he leads one part of the herd away down a road lined with cars that were bumper to bumper.

Sasha and Abraham drive a car to a point with red balloons which were all part of the plan. Daryl was bringing the herd to them.

Rick, Michonne and Morgan arrive at a point with Yellow balloons whole Glenn and I bring another herd towards them.

"We're almost there," I said into the walkie talkie while Glenn drove off.

We were close and picked up Nicholas and Heath along the way. We arrived at a tractor store which was on our way to Michonne, Morgan and Rick.

Glenn, Nicholas, Heath and I were on a run to a tractor store which was on our route of the walker- herding route. 

"We need to kill the walkers inside so that it won't draw anymore this way." Glenn devises a plan and it was the only one I saw working.

I gave Nicholas a stern look as I saw him open his mouth to object; just to have him shut it again when he caught my eye.

We made our way through the herd, trying to lure them all away. Only the front door was blocked.

"What do we do now?" I whispered in a yell to Glenn.

"We need to kill them now. In the tractor shop." Glenn said. It was pretty much the only plan we had and the only one that could possibly work.

"You stay here and if things go wrong, radio Rick," I told Nicholas. He was the one that would usually get us killed.

Glenn looked left and right before he broke the window at the store and Heath, Glenn and I shoot the walkers as they pour out of the broken window.

There were much more than I anticipated. Nicholas had to step in and help us kill the remainder of the walkers.

He managed fairly well to fan out the herd. All of Alexandria were pitching in to help whenever they were needed and there were no casualties until a walker bit Carter who screams.  This draws the walkers off route and towards the noise.

This was definitely not good.

Rick had to kill Carter to stop the screams and to try to get the walkers back on route. We needed thus plan to go the right way. Our whole community was relying on it.

Tobin and I attempted to get the stray walkers back onto the road while Morgan returns back to Alexandria to update the others who stayed back. 

Daryl, Sasha and Abraham continued to lead the herd down the road to keep them on track for as long as they could.

Michonne and Rick monitor the herd on the road keeping them in check. which was definitely what we needed. They shot at all the stray walkers with silencers to stop the noise attracting others.

We were reaching the destination for all the walkers when a loud born went off in the distance and again the plan was going astray. Half the walkers split off the herd.

The front half continue to follow Daryl, Sasha and Abraham while the back half is drawn to the noise. It doesn't matter what we did to get them back in line but nothing works.

The new route of the back half of the walkers takes them back towards Alexandria. 

Rick Michonne Glenn and I sprint back towards the community. the Horn was still hooting and none of us knew why. The only thing we could do was continue this plan.
