3. Dangerous Woman

Over the next few days, Theo continued to recover, finding things hard sometimes but managing just.

Rick and Morgan were out in the morning, but when they came back they called an emergency meeting, everyone panicked at the mannerism, they let off a panicked energy that sent everyone into a stressed frenzy.

Everyone gathered in Deanna's house, wondering what was happening.

"We might have a large problem, and it needs to be sorted" Rick began, looking around the room.

Theo took a seat next to Daryl in the window as she listened to what her father had to say.

"There is a quarry, filled with walkers, that is growing every single minute. They are trapped in  by vehicles, but they are slipping, as soon as one of them goes, hundreds of walkers are going to be heading our way. Straight to Alexandria" Rick explained looking around the room.

"We have to move them..." Rick announced making the room erupt in conversation.

"How?" Maggie asked, making the room quiet once again.

"Daryl, will lead them away using his bike" Rick began looking at Daryl, who nodded. "The rest of us will control them, getting them to go in the same direction"

"I'll take a car" Sasha spoke up. "He shouldn't do that alone" she stepped forwards.

"I'll go with her" Abraham offered, smiling in the direction of Sasha.

Theo looked over to Rosita who looked upset, obviously something was going on between Sasha and Abraham and the poor girl looked heart broken.

"Okay, I need more people, a lot more people," Rick looked around the room.

A few people volunteered including Glenn, Michonne, Nicholas and a few more

"What about me?" Theo asked "Two bikes will be louder than one right?" Theo asked, looking at her father.

"No" Daryl stopped. "You're still recovering from that gunshot"

 "But-" Theo tried to argue.

"No, he's right, we need people who can fight back here too, making sure in case a few roamers leave the herd, killing them before they attract more" Rick asked his daughter.

"Alright" Theo agreed finally.

"Look, I would rather you be out there with me so I have ma eyes on ya, but I don't wanna risk that," Daryl whispered to Theo, he hated to bench her, but right now it was the only way he could insure she was safe.

"I know, your right anyway" Theo nodded, a small smile on her lips

"How do we even know this is going to work?" One of the Alexandrias asked, walking forwards, a few other nodding along.

"Carter, by the sounds of it there is no other way" Tobin defended, he was another Alexandrian who had been getting surprisingly close with non other than Carol.

"What if we just build it up, make it stronger, i can do that" Carter panicked, "Reg taught me" He nodded, he was petrified, his face said it all.

"That won't matter" Theo looked at him who only looked back in fear. "Eventually, it's going to come down." she shrugged, explaining her opinion calmly.

"She's right, more and more walkers, the sound bringing in more walkers and finally there are too many to ever fight." Rick explained, knowing there was no other way.

"When are we doing this?" Daryl asked, looking at Rick.

"Tomorrow, get ready," Rick explained as everyone left.
