We rode infront of the car.
I wish Daryl would let me ride his motorcycle, I was good at it. "What's that?" I yelled over the loudness of the motorcycle.
"I don't know!" Daryl yelled back.
There were crashes cars and walkers up ahead and Daryl pulled over and so did Rick and Michonne behind us.
Daryl and I hopped off the motorcycle, killing some walkers. I heard Rick and Michonne kill some behind us too. "These are the governors people." Rick mentioned as we continued killing.
"They were shot." I added, noticing the gun shots in them.
We all stood around after killing the walkers. *Boom* I jumped at the sudden noise of pounding and turned around as I saw a woman inside the car, hitting the windows.
We all stared at her. Daryl opened the car door and she practically fell out, raising her hands above her head, shaking.
Rick held his gun to her.
"I'm from.. Woodbury." The woman said, still raising her hands. "What happened?" Michonne questioned.
The woman turned her head to look at Michonne, still shaking.
"He just shot us all. I hid under a body." The woman said, almost in tears. Daryl and I glanced at eachother.
"This a setup?" I asked, raising my gun.
"No, please." The woman begged, now crying.
Rick slowly lowered his gun, trusting the woman. I kept mine up.
Rick grabbed the woman and checked her for weapons while she continued to raise her hands in the air. "You can lower your hands now." Rick mumbled to her. She did as he said and put her hands down. "I think one of yours is with us. Andrea?" The woman said. I looked at Michonne and she looked at me.
"She tried to get to the prison. Did she make it?" The woman asked, looking directly at Rick.
Rick quickly glanced around the group.
"She didn't." Rick answered.
Come with us." Rick said to the woman. Daryl shot him a look.
"She can help us." Rick said to Daryl.
Michonne put the girl in the car and her and Rick got in.
"Let's go." Daryl said as he hopped back onto his motorcycle. I hopped on the back and wrapped my arms around his stomach again, leaning my head into his back as he drove  off, Rick following us.
We slowly got to familiar area.
It was now dark. Rick pulled over his car and they got out and Daryl parked his motorcycle.
We all walked together with our guns out, and Michonne gripped the woman's hand making sure she didn't do anything stupid.
"Come on." Rick whispered as we creeped up towards the front gates.
Rick fired a shot and Daryl did too.
Soon enough, the security at the front gates were shooting as so were we. We hid behind the cars they had out. I ran and ducked behind a car, ignoring the pain in my knee which had gotten worse.
I peeked my head up and aimed and shot at the people.
"Tyreese!" The woman called out. I shot her a look, signalling to shut up.
Their shots immediately stopped.
"It's me, Karen!" The woman said, again standing and raising her hands.
Tyreese. The name sounded familiar. "I'm okay!" The woman, Karen called out again.
"Where's the governor?" A man yelled from inside Woodbury, also a familiar voice.
"He shot everyone, killed them all." Karen yelled out again, and silence went over us all.
"We're coming out!" Rick yelled and out group raided our hands in the air, walking towards the gates.
The man, Tyreese, opened the gate. "You... you were the people at the prison?" Rick said. I got a closer look and realized it was the group Carl had let in, but Rick hallucinated and sorta kicked them out.
Tyreese nodded. "I'm sorry." Rick said in a whisper.
"What're you doing here?" His sister, Sasha asked.
"We came to finish this." Daryl admitted.
"But then we saw what he did." Rick added on. Tyreese looked at Karen who nodded, telling him we weren't lying.
"All of them?" Sasha asked. Rick nodded.
"Is Andrea here?" I asked, wanting to know if she was okay.
The look on Tyreese and Sashas faces answered my question. They didn't know.
"She might be in here." Rick said, pointing into Woodbury.
Sasha and Tyreese exchanged looks. "We aren't supposed to be doing this." Tyreese admitted, looking at Rick.
"Just let us look." Michonne interrupted, and without another word they let us in and closed the gates behind us.
Tyreese and Karen hugged and Karen went off to her apartment. "She might be where he kept Maggie and Glenn." Rick said, heading towards the room.
"And-" Daryl started to say but quickly stopped himself.
He looked over at me and looked back down at the ground, following Rick and the others.
"He held people here?" Sasha asked, looking at Tyreese.
Daryl nodded. We drew our guns out as we walked almost into the room we expected Andrea to be in.
"Ready?" Daryl asked as he held his hand on the door knob.
"Yeah." I whispered back, holding up my gun.
Daryl swung the door open and we all stepped in, looking around.
Andrea was sitting on the floor , covered in blood.
Michonne and I immediately bent down by her side.
"Oh my god, Andrea." I said, as I looked for the blood source.
"She's burning up." Michonne pointed out.
Andrea slowly blinked and grabbed her shoulder, pulling her shirt back and showing us a huge bite mark.
I turned over and saw Milton, the governors guy, a dead walker.
"No.." Michonne whispered as tears flowed down her cheeks.
My eyes filled with tears as what had happened hit me. I felt Daryl kneel down beside me and he put his
hand on my shoulder.
"Fuck." I whispered, my voice breaking and a tear rolling down my cheek.
I leaned in and hugged Andrea, her breath slowly downing and her movement becoming slower.
I hugged her tight one last time.
"I'll do it." Michonne whispered, wiping her tears away.
"Michonne, you shouldn't I will." I said, looking at her. Michonne shook her head. "No, y/n." Michonne demanded and I knew part of her wanted to do this.
I nodded in agreement and wiped my tears standing up. Everyone left the room and I looked back at Andrea one more time and she gave me a soft smile.
I smiled back, wiping more tears as they came.
Rick closed the door when we all left and Michonne did what needed to be done.
Daryl wrapped his arms around my back, pulling me into a hug and holding me there.
A gunshot blared around the room and I squeezed Daryl even tighter, bursting into tears.
"It's okay." He whispered as he rubbed my head with one hand, snuggling into me.
Michonne left the room and closed the door behind her, not saying a word.
I let go of Daryl and ran and hugged her. She grabbed me back, hugging me and we both cried.
"We're okay." I whispered as we both calmed down.
We stopped hugging and Michonne nodded.
"Let's go." Rick said and we all followed him out the door.
Hopefully the governor stayed gone.
