I quickly went for the radio and pressed the button. "We are here, we're also safe. Please tell me you can help Asshole over here. I'll be fine getting away from the dead." She stated into the small radio and the guy on the other line sighed.

"There you are. You had me wondering." He stated and Natalie smiled. She looked over to Rick who was still in shock.

"Where are you? Outside? Can you see us right now?" Rick asked as he took the radio from the small girl. She rolled her eyes and looked above the tank to here to slight banging of metal against flesh.

"Yeah, I can see you. You're surrounded by walkers. That's the bad news." He told them and stopped again as Rick asked his question of, "There's good news?"

"No." The man told him and Natalie bit her lip as she listened.

"Listen, whoever you are, I don't mind telling you I'm a little concerned in here." He told the guy as Natalie raised an eyebrow.

"Oh man. You should see it from over here. You'd be having a major freak-out."  He told Rick as Natalie rolled her eyes.

"Got any advice for me?" Rick asked and the man nods his head while speaking.

"Yeah, I'd say make a run for it." He stated.

"That's it? 'Make a run for it'?" He asked in confusion.

"My way's not as dumb as it sounds. You've got eyes on the outside here. There's one geek still up on the tank but the others have climbed down and joined the feeding frenzy where the horse went down. With me so far?" The guy asked and Rick nods his head.

"So far." He stated.

"Okay, the street on the other side of the tank is less crowded. If you move now while they're distracted, you stand a chance. Got ammo?" He asked his question while giving out the advice.

"In that duffel bag I dropped out there, and guns. Can I get to it?" Rick asked and Natalie looked up at this.

"Forget the bag, okay? It's not an option. What do you have on you?" He asked and that's when Natalie took the radio.

"I could get the bag, but at the same time, if Rick needs help killing that lurker I can't. Once I kill one of them, they all start chasing after me." I told him sadly.
