The Light in my Storm

Oh Andrea...(31)

Rick was wandering outside the fence. Glenn was still gone, I was bored. Katie and Carl were sitting in the grass kind of talking, Katie seemed kind of out of it. Mason was with Beth and the baby. Tanner and Carol were together. Hershel was walking from the far fence back to the prison. Maggie was resting, I think she might be slightly depressed. So on and so forth. I think Rick sent the strangers away. I don't know. I go from the watch tower, to my bunk and repeat that. Michonne was out in the yard. Axel was standing with his arms crossed looking around. At night Carol took watch.

"Rick!" I screamed. A car had pulled up.

"Rick! Rick! The Governor! The Governor!" I screamed as loudly as I could. Then Axel fell, blood splattering everywhere.

Shots fired everywhere, Rick was getting shot at. I ran down the stairs. Tripping and stumbling hurting my leg. My child was out on the field. I ran to the field hiding behind a barrier.

I peeked out just to have bullets spray my way.

"Holy shit," I muttered catching my breath. I couldn't see Katie, maybe she had gotten to safety. I couldn't see anybody in the field to be honest. I had my machine gun on me, I sprayed bullets towards some guy that wasn't near the car. That guy was spraying bullets at Rick. He was too far, and he jumped behind a tree.

Gunfire stopped for a minute. Then it all restarted. Someone had managed to run into the other guard tower while we were all focused on the Governor. After a few minutes of everyone shooting when we could, gunfire paused again. A few moments later a big delivery truck showed up and plowed through our gates.

I stared in confusion as it slammed on the brakes and stopped.  What were they doing? They stopped in the middle of the field, nobody was shooting anymore. A ramp dropped and walkers wandered out, snarling. NO!

I was less than 25 ft away from the walkers that were already heading towards the prison. A couple of guys got out of the van, I stuck my head out from the barrier, aimed and shot. I was out of ammo.

"Son a bitch," I hissed as bullets ricocheted off the barrier.  I could see the guy in the tower again. The gunfire restarted. Rick was yelling at Hershel to get out of there. Hershel was hiding in some knee high grass. Michonne was getting shot at as well. Walkers were still coming out of the vehicle. How many were there??

I couldn't see Katie, I sprinted to the other barrier, bullets hitting the ground as they shot at me. Maggie had tossed me more ammo. I reloaded and began firing again. I managed to shoot the guy in the guard tower. He fell, half his body hanging over the edge. The Governor and his men were leaving just as Glenn pulled up. Walkers were inside the prison and tons of walkers from the woods made their way over here. Overruning the prison and Rick who was on the outside. I began shooting at walkers, Katie found her way to me. She was holding a machine gun as well. We both dropped them when we ran out of ammo, and began stabbing.

I ran into the field, Katie stayed back as I commanded her. I stabbed them with my machete and threw my throwing knives. Michonne was using her sword and I think Rick had a generally large knife. Michonne and Glenn then got Hershel.

"Go get Rick!" Glenn commanded as they went past. He was getting overrun. Katie went with Glenn and Michonne. I sprinted down to Rick, my leg throbbing a bit. I managed to get to him and pulled a walker off of him. 2 more started grabbing for him, then another 2 were trying to get me. I held 1 away with each arm, the third one with my leg. I couldn't kick or I'd lose my balance, if another one showed up, I was screwed. I hopped back, losing my balance, walkers reached for me, I was pinned against the fence. 1 was extremely close to my face, then it stopped struggling. The other in fact so did one of the other ones. There was an arrow through the walkers face and it was mere inches from mine. The third one became limp. I dropped them all.
