Tommy's POV


Sasha and I were on watch when we saw the same car Blake, Rick, Carol and Michonne left in.  I quickly went over and opened up the gate.  When the car came in I noticed that Carol was driving.  She got out of the car and opened the backseat and I saw Daryl was lying back there and looked like he got beaten badly.


"Help me take him to Rosita."  Carol told me.


I do as she told me and grab Daryl's shoulders as Carol grab his legs.  We were able to carry him to the infirmary where Rosita, Tara and Beth were.


"What happened to him?"  Rosita asked as she cleared a place on the table for us to put him.


"I don't know, we found him in the middle of the road."  Carol told her.  "He's still alive but he lost a lot of blood and we need you to stitch up his wounds."


"Tara, get me a small needle and disinfectant.  Beth, get me some cotton and bandages."  Rosita tells them and they grab what they're told to get.  "You two can leave and I'll let you know when I'm done."


Carol and I listen to Rosita and leave the infirmary.


"So what happened to Blake, Rick and Michonne?"  I asked her.


"They should be at the police station by now."  She tells me.  "I should probably go back and get them.  Hopefully they managed to get Carl and get out of there by now."


We both turn around when we hear footsteps running towards us.  We see Amy come around the corner running towards us almost out of breath.


"W-where's Maggie?"  She asked out of breath.


"Maybe in her room?"  I suggested.  "Why?"


"People...outside..."  She said still out of breath.


"People?!"  I asked shocked.


"A lot."  Amy informs us.


"Amy, find Maggie and meet us outside."  Carol tells her.


Amy runs away towards Maggie's room.  Then Carol and I run outside towards the gate.  We start climbing up the ladder and look over at the people.  We saw about ten police cars with about five or six people in each of them.  And then there she was.


"Hello Thomas."  Jessica spoke standing front and center.


"You know her?"  Carol asked me.


"She tried to kill me."  I tell her before turning to Jessica.  "What do you want?!"


"I want everything you have."  She tells us.  "Your weapons, your food and even this place you've been calling home."


"How the hell did you find us?"  Sasha asked aiming her sniper at them.


"We were able to follow your car after you drove off with what's his face."  Jessica told us.


"You left him there on purpose."  Carol said.


"Of course I did."  Jessica told her.  "That way we could follow you back to this place.  And the rest of my men could follow Blake and those other two while they think they have the upper hand on us.  When in reality, they're falling right into my trap."


"Who are you and what do you want?"  Maggie asked once she got up here with us.


"Are you leader of this place?"  Jessica asked.


"Yes."  Maggie told her.  Which was true because Rick puts Maggie in charge when he's not here.  "Now what do you want?"


"For you and your people to leave."  Jessica told us.  "Otherwise you'll make me do something I really don't want to do.  Actually that's a lie, I really do."


"I think if you don't turn around right now you'll make us do something we don't want to do."  Maggie threatened.  "You see the woman with the sniper aiming right at you?  That's Sasha.  And she never misses her target."


Jessica didn't respond with any words.  Instead she just chuckled to herself before snapping her fingers.  After she did that one of her men came out of a car with Glenn gagged and tied up.  He walks Glenn next to Jessica and she takes a gun out of her pocket and aims it at his head.


"Let's see if Sasha's quick enough to shoot me before I shoot him."  Jessica said.


I looked over at Maggie.  She was trying to put on a brave face but I knew she was a wreck on the inside.


"So, you can either behave yourselves and do as I say or I'll have to kill him and then kill all of you."  Jessica told us.  "What's it gonna be?"

Blake's POV


Rick, Michonne and I discussed our plan.  Now all we have to do is wait for our opening before we go in, get Carl and get out of here.


"Hands up."  We heard a voice.  I also felt a gun against the back of my head.  "And drop all your weapons."


I glanced over at Rick and Michonne and could see people behind them as well.  I watch as Rick puts his gun on the ground and Michonne does the same with her katana, so I drop my gun.

"Now stand up and turn around slowly."  The same voice said again.


Rick, Michonne and I do as we're told and turn around.  When I do I see three men aiming guns at us and about ten other people behind him all wearing the same police padding.


"Cuff them and take them in."  The leader told some of his people.


One of the men came over to us with handcuffs and cuffed my hands behind my back.  When he went over to handcuff Michonne I noticed that no one was watching me.  So I ran trying to get away.

But I didn't get far before I tripped and fell.  And with my hands cuffed behind my back made it almost impossible for me to get up.  It wasn't until the leader bent down in front of me and pulled me up off the ground.


"Look, I don't like sneaky little shits like yourself trying to run away."  He told me.  "Luckily for you I have orders to keep you alive so I can't kill you.  But your two friends back there, they're fair game.  So you can either behave yourself or I'm gonna make you watch as I slowly and painfully kill them.  So, what's it gonna be?"
