YEARNING - Daryl Dixon

TWENTY TWO.

BONNIE and the rest of their group continued making their way towards Terminus, only hoping that it was not overrun.

Bonnie walked beside Tara and Rosita as they made small talk "What were your favourite things to do before this bullshit?" Tara asked and a smile lit up Bonnie's features as she remembered her life before this.

"I enjoyed my job, medicine was my life, getting drunk too." Rosita replied and the girls laughed.

Bonnie licked her chapped lips "I loved my sport, back home sport was everywhere and on twenty four seven so sport influenced my life heavily, obviously work." She paused a second before getting embarrassed "I also collected records." Tara looked at the blonde as if she had grown another head.

"What?" Bonnie asked with a sly grin and Rosita laughed from beside her "Records? Aren't they like so nineteen tens?" Bonnie rolled her eyes "Shut up." The girls laughed again and they noticed a huge factory come into view with letters painted on it, spelling 'Terminus.'

"We're here." Maggie stated and the group raised their weapons as they slowly entered the front gate. Bonnie was on high alert, noticing that nobody greeted them at the gate "I don't like this Maggie." The blonde mumbled as she held a pistol given to her by Rosita tightly, finger resting just above the trigger.

Bonnie's heart sped up as they seen a sign, telling them to lower their weapons and there they seen a woman cooking some meat on a grill.

At the sound of the groups approaching footsteps, the woman turned around and had a smile plastered to her face.

"Hi, I'm Mary." She began, walking out from behind the grill, to stand in front of the group "Looks like you've been on the road awhile." Maggie nodded from beside Bonnie "We have."

"Lets get you settled, and we'll make you a plate." Bonnie still felt uneasy "Welcome to Terminus."

Little did the woman know, that all hell would break loose.

Bonnie felt hands grab her from behind, slamming her into the brick wall beside the group "Woah, hey get off of her." Rosita yelled before the whole group was grabbed rather violently.

Bonnie could feel a stinging pain from her chin and liquid seeping down her throat as a man with short hair walked over with an evil smirk "Welcome to Terminus." He greeted to which Bonnie seethed through her teeth, spitting at his feet.

The man cast his eyes on Bonnie "Well aren't you a feisty one, huh?" Bonnie glared at him, and she was ripped from against the wall to stand facing the man. In that moment she noticed that there were no other people sat in the courtyard at the tables and chairs, just them.

She looked at Maggie with fear and anger, Maggie imitating her look as the group were stripped of their belongings and weapons. Her knife and sheath were pulled from her leg and Bonnie grunted "You wanna take my boots too?" She extended her leg out in front of the guy taking her knife "They're good for kicking people's heads in."

The guy who greeted them turned and looked to the people who had hold of Bonnie and the rest "Take them to the cart." Bonnie grunted and fought against the man who held her tightly "Let go of me." She yelled.

"Don't push us princess." The man responded as Bonnie dug her heels into the concrete below them, causing the man to punch Bonnie straight in the guts, winding her.

As she gasped for air, the group were dragged towards a singular train cart "What, you just go around hitting women?" Abraham spoke up from the back.

"No, just bitches who think they are above us." The snarl in his voice caused Bonnie to shut up as she struggled for air, and the door was pulled open to a large train cart.

Bonnie was tossed in like a rag doll, sliding across the floor.

The blonde sat up on her knees, hunched over, as she tried her best to suck in oxygen "Fuck." she muttered as she held her stomach and sat up at the sound of the cart door closing "Bonnie you ok?" Maggie asked, resting a hand on her back and the blonde nodded, sending Maggie a thumbs up.

"We need to get out of here." Bonnie struggled out, looking up at Maggie with concerned eyes.

"We will." Maggie assured.

Bonnie coughed a few more times before she stumbled up onto her feet, walking to the door to see if she could figure out where they were.

"Can you see anything?" Bonnie asked Abraham who had the same idea as her, and he shook his head "No, it's about as dry as it gets crocodile dundee."

Bonnie sent him a funny look as the tall ginger kept peering through the small hole "D-Did you just call me crocodile dundee?"

Abraham was a good guy.
