You Don't Know Me

The Prisoner

Blake's POV

After Zelda ran out and sacrificed herself, we all split up and went out looking for her. Maggie stayed with the Judith and Hershel at the bank, and Mom went with Rick and Michonne to search the streets while the rest of us searched the woods.

"Look what I found." We heard Katie call out as she walked over to the rest of us with Michonne's katana.

"Where did you find this?" Mark asked.

"Inside a bush." Katie told us.

"Do you think they got her?" Joey asked.

"Probably." Ted said. "But why would they take her and leave the katana?"

"They didn't." Amy said. "Zelda probably realized she was outnumbered, so she hid the katana and surrendered. And since we don't see her dead body, they probably took her back with them."

"Well we have to go after them and find her." Joey said.

"We can't." Tommy told him. "At least not now."

"Why not?!" Joey yelled.

"We don't know where they took her." Carl told him.

"Plus they outnumber us." I said. "If we went after her without some kind of plan, it would be a suicide mission."

"But the longer she's with them, the more trouble she could be in!" Joey yelled. "She could be dead for all we know!"

"Hey!" Katie said going over to him. "She's gonna be fine. We'll get her back."

It seemed like she was able to calm him down, which is good. I get that he was worried about her, but he had to keep a level head.

"Hey." Michonne said as she walked over to us. "Rick wants us to meet back up at the bank."

We followed Michonne back to the bank. Katie also gave Michonne her katana back. When we got there we saw Maggie holding Hershel and sitting with Judith and mom and Rick were standing in front of a random guy who was tied up and gagged.

"Who's he?" Katie asked.

"We think he was one of the people that took Zelda." Rick told us.

"But he won't talk." Mom told us.

"Where did you find him?" Ted asked.

"He was at a gas station filling up his car." Mom said.

"And he was alone?" Tommy asked.

"No, but we took care of them." Rick told us before turning to the prisoner. "Now how about you start answering our questions."

Rick ungagged the man, which resulted in him spitting in Rick's face.

"I won't tell you shit." He spoke.

"Rachel." Rick spoke.

Mom nodded before pulling out a knife and going over to him. She grabbed one of his hands and jammed her knife underneath his fingernail. He let out a shriek as she moved the knife and pulled out his fingernail, which resulted in another shriek.

"Ready to answer now?" Rick asked. "Because you have 19 more nails that she will be more than happy to pull them out."

"Ok, ok, ok." The prisoner whimpered. "I'll tell you."

"That was easy." I whisper to Carl which caused him to chuckle.

"Now tell us, where do your people live?" Rick asked.
