[3rd POV]

They stand there for a moment in shock before they start moving for the door. "Daryl, you cover the back." Shane said as they walked. 

"Hello?" Rick asks as everyone enters the building. 

"Hello?" Shane calls. 

"Close those doors. Watch for walkers." Rick tells the group. 

"Hello?" Dale calls and right after he said that, a gun cocked and they raised their own guns at the person standing in front of them. 

"Anybody infected?" He called to the group

"Anybody infected?" He called to the group. 

Some stole glances at Ash. "One of our group was. He didn't make it." Rick said. 

"Why are you here? What do you want?" The man asks as he stepped forward. 

"A chance." Rick said. 

"That's asking an awful lot these days." The man said. 

"I know." Rick said. 

The man looked around at the group and his eyes landed on Ash as she sweats and pants. He raises his gun at her and the rest aims their own guns. "You said no one else was infected." The man said to Rick. 

"She wasn't bit. She's sick. We don't know how to help her so we came here, hoping you would." Rick says as he motions for everyone to put their guns down. 

The man stares at the girl for a moment before nodding and lowering his gun. "You submit a sample of your blood, that's the price of submission and for saving her." The man said. 

"We can do that." Rick says. 

The man drops his gun completely. "You got stuff to bring in, bring it in now. Once this door closes, it stays closed." The man said and the men ran out except for T-Dog and Dale as T held Ash and Dale held the doors open. 

They run back in with all the things. Once the doors are closed, the man speaks into a key card. "VI, seal the main entrance. Kill the power up here." The metal door closes over the glass door and Rick walks up to the man. 

"Rick Grimes." He introduces. 

"Dr. Edwin Jenner." Jenner says and they all walk into an elevator. 

"Doctors always going around packing heat like that?" Daryl asks. 

"There were plenty left lying around. I familiarized myself. But you look harmless enough. Except you." Jenner said as he looked at Carl who looked up at him. "I'll have to keep my eye on you." He said which made Carl smile. 

They walk out of the elevator once it stops and walks down a hallway. "Are we under ground?" Carol asks. 

Jenner turns around to look at her. "Are you claustrophobic?" He asks.
