*The Next Morning*

I walk out of the house behind Chrissy as we load up the RV with things we need on the run to the army bases we were taking half the group with us and some from the kingdom. I even see rick loading up they're truck he was going with michonne and I see him pass Judith to tara and she gives rick a kiss on the cheek and one to michonne I swear Judith gets cuter each and every day. I walk over to them and I say "hey where's my kiss?" she puckers her lips and kisses my cheek and she goes straight to me and I say "you be good for auntie titi ok?". She giggles and hugs my neck and then she goes straight to tara and we load up the RV.

But before I leave tara calls my name and I turn around and she says "be careful out there" I flash her a smile and I say "we will don't worry". Her and Judith walk away and go inside her house and then we were off and pop was right it was a long drive to just sit and wait. Enid sits across from me and she lays her head on my shoulder and Chrissy does the other shoulder and we stayed that way until we got to the first army base. Carl sits across from me in the RV and we get out and paul says "I'm the only adult here I just realized that why do I always feel like I am in teens company?".

I start snickering and then enid was next and I say "because your the best pop" he sends me a smile and I grab my gun out and make sure my knife was in its place. We walk inside the army base and start searching for more guns and ammo and it looked completely looted and every locker or gun locker was wide open. They were either out there somewhere on walkers or some already found them. I mark off on the list that it was looted and we moved onto the next one and I hope that this one isn't empty like the last one.

I walk to the front of the RV and help dad with the map in finding the next army base and the next one was the one my dad went too. We arrive quicker than I thought we would and he says "you see everyone knew about the other one that was empty?". I nodd at him and he says "not very many people knew about this one because this was the original base they just built the second one and when the second one came out-". I smile and finish his sentence "they forgot about this one" he smiles at me and we get out and everyone follows behind us and we check the whole base and find nothing and then I see a locker space alongside the wall.

I look between the holes in the locker and I see a line of guns and I say "anyone got a hairpin?" enid starts checking her hair and then she says "here use mine". She hands me a bobby pin and I start trying to unlock it and then in the blink of an eye I hear a click and I pop open the door. I grab the guns and hand them to pop and he dies laughing and I put them inside the duffle bag and the ammo that came along with it. There wasn't that many but it was better than nothing and then the third and final army base was the jackpot my jaw went completely slack when I saw all the guns in the lockers just collecting dust.

The wall was covered in lockers with guns lined up side by side and we got the ammo loaded up and the guns in the RV. Today was a good day I was shocked we didn't lose the light and I say "I'm surprised we didn't lose the light if we go to the mall we'll be back in Alexandria before dinner". Pop pulls out his pocket watch and he says "yeah your right because we will start to lose the light around seven or eight and it's only four right now". I flash him a smile and Chrissy wraps her arms around me and she says "you also thought we would find guns at every army base we hit sissy the first two were busts well not the one dad knew about though".

He sends her a smile and we get inside the RV and pop starts driving and it wasn't far from where we were and when we finally get there he locked every door on the RV so no one tries to break into it. We get inside the mall and it wasn't that big and before we go in then I hit the door and it echoes all through the outlet mall. We wait a few minutes and carl says "if there was any here we would have heard them coming". I turn to pop and he nods at him and we have our guns drawn and my knife out and Chrissy follows behind me and I find a spencers store. My face lights up and they follow behind me and pop just snickers "of course this is the store you pick".
