[Me and Rick were still in the tank. Then Rick started talking to the unknown guy when we heard the radio again.]
Man on radio: Hey you alive in there?
[Rick immediately gets up but hits his head and goes to the walkie.]
Rick: Hello. Hello
Man on radio: oh there you are. I was wondering.
Rick: where are you? Outside? Can you see us right now?
Man on radio: yeah I can see you your surrounded by walkers. That's the bad news.
Rick: There's good news.
Man on radio: No
Rick: Listen whoever you are I don't mind telling you I'm a little concerned in here.
Man on radio: oh man you should see it from over here you'd be having a major freak-attack.
Rick: You got any advice for me.
Man on radio: Yeah, I'd say make a run for it.
Rick: that's it make a run for it?
Man on radio: My ways not as dumb as it sounds you got eyes on the outside here. There's one geek still up on the tank but the others have climbed down and joined the feeding the horses that went down. You with me so far?
Rick: So far
Man on radio: okay the street on the other side of the tank is less crowded if you move now that their distracted you stand a chance. You got ammo?
Rick: In that duffle bag I dropped out there and guns can I get it
[I immediately raise my head up wondering if I could get my bag as I dropped it next to the guns along with my Hat.]
Man on radio: forget the bag it's not an option. What do you have on you?
Rick: Hang on
[Rick grabs the gun and checks it for ammo. Then he goes to the walker inside the tank to check it he sees a bomb and grabs it.]
Rick: I got a Beretta with one clip 15 rounds.
Man on radio: Make them count. Jump off the right side of the tank keep going that direction there's an ally up the street maybe 50 yards be there.
Rick: Hey what's your name?
Man on radio: Have you been listening to me? You're running out of time.
[Rick gets of the walkie and grabs a shovel from the tank.]
Rick: Stay close to me. Understand?
[I nod my head. We go out through the top of the tank and go to our right. Rick shots the dead while I stay close to him holding my knife in case of anything. We keep going until we run into an Asian man in an alley.]
Man: what are you doing? Come on!
[We follow the man I was now in front of Rick. The man then climbed up a ladder with me following behind.]
Man: What are you doing? Come on!
Athena: Rick come on!
[Rick followed us up the ladder we made it up a safe place]
Man: Nice moves there Clint Eastwood. You the new sheriff? Come riding to clean up the town?
Rick: Wasn't my intention
Man: Yeah, whatever yeehaw. You're still a dumbass.
Rick: Rick, thanks. This is Athena.
[I smile and wave my hand.]
