Overall thoughts:

I'd choose Daryl to be by my side in an apocalypse any day. Michone too. Glenn as well.

"Some men do not earn the love of their sons." ouch

Daryl getting Carol a rose and knowing what kind of flower it is. Bringing it back safely and putting it in a 'vase'. And people say he's heartless. "I believe this one bloomed for you little girl." 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Daryl getting impaled on his own arrow fuck

Daryl covers himself up like a Victorian lady when Carol brings him food and not knowing how to respond when she kisses his forehead 🤣

"I can't profess to understand God's plan. Christ promised the resurrection of the dead. I just thought he had something a little different in mind."

Shane being a dick and opening the barn and Glenn asking Maggie for permission to kill the walkers cause he knows they were family

At this point, if it's not about Daryl and the team, I don't wanna know about them - just give me my found family

Mama stilinski what are you doing here?

Daryl please come home

s3, ep 10 - this is where I started to actively take note 

“You quite a lady.” Yes she is, but not for you. 

Daryl knowing that it’s a baby crying and not wild animals - immediately going to check it out. Of course Merle is acting like a dick. 

ARMS

CLOSING THE WALKERS HEAD IN THE CAR’S BOOT HOLY SHIT 

Daryl putting the crossbow on Merle when he’s stealing from the family with the baby 

“They didn’t owe us nothing.” You did save their lives bby 

“THERE👹WAS👹A👹BABY!” 

“Man I went back for you. You weren’t there. I didn’t cut off your hand neither. You did that. Way before they locked you up on that roof. You asked for it.” Finally someone says it. Finally Daryl sees it. 

DARYL’S BACK

HOLY SHIT 

OH MY GOD

NO 

SDKFNHRUE

“I didn’t know he was-“ “Yeah, he did. He did the same to you. That’s why you left first.” JNFJHEFUSIOJWEL IMMA KILL 

“Back where I belong.” Yes sir, I know that’s right. 

“Damn near killed the Chinese kid.” “He’s Korean.” WE LOVE TO SEE GROWTH 

“You know, I may be the one walking away, but you’re the one that’s leaving. Again.” I am not ok. I don’t think I’ll ever recover from this. 

“This rage is going to get you killed.”

THE GOV SHOWING UP AND KILLING AXEL 

DARYL NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO SHOW UP

Ew Merle

S3, ep 11

Carl telling Rick he should stop being the leader was not on my bingo card 

The Gov wanting children 13+ to fight in his war 

Gov lying to Andrea - unsurprising 

“You go to that prison, you stay there.” Or the both of you can just.. disappear..

I’m with Glenn on this one. Remove Merle. 

Merle can read????

“When the governor returns, he’ll kill me first-“ GOOD I’LL PAY HIM TO DO IT

“This is our home.” “This is a tomb.” Well damn Daryl, why’d you come back then???

“He’s your brother, but he’s not good for you. Don’t let him bring you down.” STOP HURTING ME WITH DARYL’S STORYLINE 

HIS LIL LAUGH WITH CAROL 

Andrea fuck off

Milton two-timing Andrea is iconic - sucks that it’s for that piece of shit tho

Andrea doing Michonne’s pet walker thing 

Tyrese and his gang witnessing it 

Merle approaching Michonne 

Tyrese is too pure for Angela and the Gov

Rick setting Andrea straight 

“Next time you see Phillip, you tell him I’m gonna take his other eye.” As you should 

“Go to hell, Michonne.” Have you seen the world you live in? 

“He sent Merle to kill me.”

“You chose a warm bed over a friend.” Preach 

Tyrese run 

“Shane loved Rick.” “Shane loved Lori.” No he was obsessed and stalkerish with Lori. 

Carol asking Andrea to sleep with Gov and then kill him is wild but like.. pls do. 

Rick giving Andrea a car, knife and gun - he better than me, I’d leave her for dead 

HOW IS CARL READY

HE IS A CHILD

Ugh Andrea you bitch just kill him 

S3, ep 12

Driving past a hitchhiker - I get it, but fuck man that would suck 

The car getting stuck in the mud is instant karma but I hate it 

Carl boy it is not her fault the car got stuck 

THEY LEAVE HIM BEHIND AGAIN

‘No guilt, you know that’ what 

‘Turn around and live’ ??

Carl shooting the shooter in the town was unexpected 

Morgan’s story… fuck man

“I think she might be one of us.” Hell yes she is Carl 

Love the lack of judgement from Michonne 

Walkers got the hitchhiker 

S3, ep 13

Where in the hell are they?

“Great. He bought his butler.” Daryl I love you

“You better watch your mouth, sunshine.” Marry me

“Imma make him. There’s gotta be a way.” Daryl bby, ily but he beat the shit out of him. That’s not going away any time soon. 

“I care more about her than I care about me.” Glenn sweetie, you’re in an apocalypse

"Well, it's not infected so far." Hershel said, checking over Natalia's arm.

"Yippee."

"Are the pain killers helping?"

"Sorta." Natalia shrugged with her other shoulder.

"You'll recover a lot quicker if you're eating, resting, and not waving a gun around." Hershel told the woman.

"I think I'm healing quite nicely, thanks."

He flicked her forearm only slightly, causing the woman to hiss and flinch.

"Yes, I take it that you're doing well."

"That was mean, Hershel."

"Get something to eat, you need strength so you can heal, we need you for this so called war we've signed ourselves up for."

"You know there's no other way, right?"

"Yes, I do, but I don't like it."

"We didn't sign ourselves up for anything, they pointed guns in our faces and are forcing us to pull the trigger."

Michonne and Andrea were missing when Natalia walked back out of the cell blocks, her arm rebandaged and back in the sling, that she hated.

"You need me to whip you up anything?" Carol asked her.

"Oh, no thank you, it's okay." She smiled kindly at the other woman.

She looked over the ingredients, they didn't have much left.

Natalia picked up a granola bar, using her teeth to rip it open, after checking it over.

"Natalia." Merle walked over, overpronouncing her name. "Can I call you Tallie?"

"No, you may not." She told him.

"Wanted to thank you." He ignored her comment. "For sticking up fer lil ol' Merle."

"Please don't, I didn't say anything for your benefit. I don't like you, either."

"Got the hots for my little brother?" He looked over his shoulder at Daryl who was fixing his crossbow, but had chosen the wrong time to check what they were doing, again.

"No." Natalia said, her expression was bored, and that's how she felt about the conversation. "He's a better man than you, by that I mean he's not a self centred, insufferable, attention seeking asshole. Other than that, he's a survivalist, something to admire." She then walked towards the door to leave.

"You wound me, sweetheart!" Merle called after her.

"Don't tempt me."

She looked over at the field of walkers, once she was outside, something had to be done, it was only getting more busy.

Taking out a knife, Natalia let out a sigh, stepping forward.

"Put it away."

"Is it just a family trait to bother everyone?"

"I ain't bothering ya. I don't need Hershel breathing down my neck to look out for yer dumbass."

"Says the king." Natalia chuckled.

"What'd Merle say to ya?" Daryl asked.

"Shit."

"Jus' ignore him, he's a prick."

"You didn't think I was doing that before?" She looked at him. "How come you decided to come back?"

"Cause." He shrugged.

"Really." She told him.

"Cause it's my home, my people are here."

"Thanks for helping me, yesterday, and for looking after him, when I was..." She let her sentence trail.

"Don't have ta thank me."

"But I am, so deal with it."

The group had given Andrea a car so that she could get back to Woodbury, which Natalia was glad of, she felt uneasy having the blonde here, like she was being spied on.

"Can you spare it?" Andrea asked Rick.

"Yeah." He nodded.

She looked around at all the people, weapons in their hands.

"Well, take care." She said, getting into the car.

"Andrea." Rick said, stepping towards the car. He handed the woman a swiss army knife and a gun. "Be careful."

"You, too."

She started the car and drove towards the gate, waiting so that Merle could open it.

"Go!" He shouted at her, pulling the metal on wheels across.

Andrea had managed to set up a meeting between Rick and The Governor three days after her visit.

Since Natalia's arm was healing nicely and she was actually able to use it, though it hurt like a bitch still, Rick had asked her to come along, as well as Daryl and Hershel. 

Natalia sat in the back, Rick drove and Hershel was in passenger, Daryl rode his bike.

Once they arrived, Rick had told Hershel and Natalia to stay in the car so they could scope it out, apparently him and Daryl could handle it without them.

Hershel moved to sit in the front seat, so that he could drive to the meeting place.

Natalia checked her weapons, she had knifes stuffed in the sheaves she had made around her belt, a black handgun in the waist band of her jeans, a Swiss army knife in her pocket and shoved into her boot. She also had one of the guns that Rick, Michonne and Carl had got from the run they did yesterday. 

"This whole thing is bullshit." Natalia muttered.

"Maybe, but we should hear him out." Hershel told her.

Eventually Hershel started the car, driving towards the shed.

Daryl walked towards the car.

"He's already in there. Sat down with Rick."

"He came by himself?" Natalia asked, getting out the vehicle.

"I don't see any cars." Hershel said.

"It don't feel right. Keep it running."

Soon enough, a car showed up.

"Heads up." Daryl said, both him and Natalia raising their weapons at the vehicle.

Three people were in the car, Andrea, a man with glasses and mousey brown hair, who looked like he couldn't fight his way out of a plastic bag, and a Hispanic man, who was slightly smirking at them.

"What the hell? Whys your boy already in there?" Daryl asked them.

"He's here?" Andrea asked.

"Yup.”

She looked over at the Hispanic man before sighing loudly and marching towards the shed, pulling the door open and heading in.

Natalia and Daryl both kept their weapons raised on the two men.

The man with glasses was writing in a notebook as the other man stared at the two, leaning against the car.

Daryl eventually lowered his gun, pacing back and forth.

"Maybe I should go in there." Hershel said.

"The Governor thought it best If he and Rick spoke privately." The man with glasses said.

"Who asked you?" Natalia told him.

"Better question, who the hell are you?" Daryl asked.

"Milton Mamet."

"Great. He bought his butler." Daryl commented, Natalia looked away as she snorted.

"I'm his advisor" Milton replied.

"What kind of advice?"

"Clearly bad." Natalia replied to Daryl.

"Planning. Biters. Uh, you know. I'm sorry. I don't feel like I have to explain myself to the henchmen."

"You better watch your mouth, sunshine."

"Look, if you and I are gonna be out here pointing guns at each other all day, do me a favour, shut your mouth." The hispanic said.

Daryl stepped towards him. 

"Tell Alfred over here, to shut his." Natalia told the other man.

"We don't need this. If all goes south in there, we'll be at each others throats soon enough." Hershel told the two men.

Daryl stepped away.

"How come blondie gets to sit in there." Natalia asked, looking over at the door.

No one got the chance to reply when Andrea walked out.

"Aw, your kumbaya speech not work?" She asked the other woman, fake pouting.

"Go to hell." She muttered, walking away to sit down.

"I'll be sure to ask Philip how it is, I'm sure he knows the place pretty well."

The Hispanic man walked towards the door, closing it.

A little more time had passed.

Milton stepped towards the group, leaving the other mans side.

"There's no reason not to use this time we have together to explore the issues ourselves." He said.

"Oh! I can!" Natalia put her hand in the air excitedly.

Daryl slapped her hand down.

"Boss said to sit tight and shut up." The man told Milton.

"Don't you mean The Governor?" Daryl asked.

"Its a good thing they're sitting down, especially after what happened." Milton said. "They're gonna work it out. Nobody wants another battle."

"I wouldn't exactly call it a battle."

"I would call it a battle, and I did. I recorded it." He held up his little brown notebook.

"What, so people in the future know how much of a piece of shit you and your people were?" Natalia asked him.

"Something like that. It'll be a part of our history."

"That makes sense." Hershel agreed.

"I've got dozens of interviews " the man stepped toward Hershel.

A snarl of a walker and metal clanging interrupted them.

Natalia grabbed a knife from her belt as they headed towards it.

There were three walkers.

"After you." Daryl told the other man, gesturing for him to go forward.

"No way. You first." He replied.

Natalia rolled her eyes, stepping forward.

So had Andrea.

The blonde took out the first one, pushing him against the metal building and plunging a knife into its skull.

Natalia tripped the female walker up, sending it hurtling to the ground so that she could plunge her knife through the third walkers eye, pulling her knife out, blood shot out, a little splattering on her face, she let it fall as she trailed back, the female walker reached for her as she bent down, dropping the knife into her head.

"Pussy." The man told Daryl.

Whilst on the ground, Natalia looked to see what the woman had, finding a lipgloss on her.

"Seriously, you're raiding them?" Andrea asked, sounding unimpressed.

"What? I love this colour, besides, she's not gonna be using it anymore." Natalia shrugged, pocketing the lipgloss.

Four more walkers appeared.

The man swung his metal bat before smashing it in the head of a walker, crushing its head into the metal building. He looked back to check the others were watching, grinning.

Daryl shot the female walker down with his crossbow.

The man hit another with his bat.

Andrea walked away, but Natalia stayed to watch the show, folding her arms across her chest.

He got ready to do it again, but Daryl beat him to it with his crossbow, the arrow flying through her head and into the neck of the other one, Daryl reached for his knife, aiming it as the man walked up to the last one, once again he was beat by Daryl throwing the knife and it landing right into the walkers head.

Natalia stuck her hand out with a grin, Daryl lowfived her, the man didn't look impressed.

Daryl walked forwards to rifle through the walkers pockets, pulling out a pack of cigarettes.

"Look what he's got." He said, holding them up. He put one in his mouth before offering them out.

Natalia took one, but the man leaned back.

She hadn't had one for about nearly four years, since she found out she was pregnant.

"Nah, I prefer Menthols." he said.

"Douchebag." Daryl muttered, pocketing them.

He lit his cigarette then leaned over to light Natalia's as she inhaled the smoke.

"You army or something?" He asked.

"Nah, I just, just hate these things. Yeah. After what they did. To my wife, kids."

"Preach." Natalia looked away, blowing out smoke.

"Sucks." Daryl said.

"Thanks." The man muttered. "This is a joke, right? They ain't gonna work anything out. Sure, they'll do their little dance and tomorrow, next day, they'll give the word."

"I know." Daryl said, Natalia nodded.

"Hey." He gestured to Daryl's pocket, Daryl pulled the pack out, handing it to the man.

"You gotta little ..." Daryl looked over to Natalia, licking his thumb and pressing it to her cheek, wiping off the blood.

"You did not just do that." She said, stepping back, letting out a laugh and using her sleeve to wipe her cheek.

"What?" He asked.

"You guys get together before or after?" The man asked, making them both look at him.

She looked at the man with confusion.

"This conversation is over." She sighed, shaking her head as she threw the butt of her cigarette, walking away from the pair.

"We ain't." She could hear Daryl tell the man, turning to go back as well.

It was a little while longer before Rick and The Governor came out the shed.

Everyone moved to get back in the cars, Daryl on his bike, then they drove their separate ways.

When they got back to the prison, Maggie, Carol and Glenn were outside to meet them.

"Let's get inside." Rick told the small group, so that he could discuss the meeting.

Everyone stood inside the cell block, waiting for Rick to tell them what happened.

He reached in a cell, grabbing a gun.

"So, I met this Governor." He started. "Sat with him for quite a while."

"Just the two of you?" Merle asked.

"Yeah." He nodded.

"Should have gone when we had the chance, bro." He said to Glenn, moving past everyone to stand behind Glenn.

"He wants the prison. He wants us gone. Dead. He wants us dead. For what we did to Woodbury. We're going to war." He told the group, before walking out the building.

"Come on, Sully." Natalia mutters to her dog, who was sat by her feet, they headed up the stairs, and towards their cell, Daryl was behind her, heading to his, which was next door, now.

She entered hers, not wanting to start a conversation with the man, but she didn't lock the door, instead layed on the bottom bunk with Sully, petting his fur, in thought as he napped.

It was two days later.

Rick had called a meeting with her, Hershel and Daryl. 

"It's the only way." Rick said, after explaining that the Governor was willing to leave them alone in exchange for Michonne. "No one else knows."

"You gonna tell 'em?" Daryl asked.

"Not till after. We have to do it today. It has to be quiet." Natalia bit her tongue, shaking her head as they talked. She thought it was sick.

"Got a plan?" Daryl asked.

"We tell her we need to talk. Away from the others."

Daryl looked at the two, Hershel had his head down, and he could see the pissed off, disapproving look on Natalia's face.

"Just ain't us, man." Daryl told the man.

"No. No it isn't." Hershel agreed, walking away.

"It's disgusting, Rick. You have no idea what he's gonna do to her, look what he did to Maggie and he didn't even have a vendetta against her."

"Look, I know, but if we do this, we avoid a fight. No one else dies."

Daryl nodded.

"Alright."

She poked her cheek with her tongue, looking away.

"We need someone else." Rick said.

"I'll talk to him." Daryl said, seeming to understand what Rick meant.

"I'll do it."

"I'll go with ya."

"No. Just me." Rick then left, heading back inside.

"She helped us." Natalia said. "If it weren't for her, Judith would of died, Glenn and Maggie, I could've. When I was stood out in that field, getting shot at, I was so confused and in shock, I didn't move, she pulled me away, hid behind the bus, temporarily bandaged me up. Now we're sending her off to her death like she's cattle. It won't even matter. He's not gonna stop with her."

"You don't know that." He disagreed, shaking his head, looking at the field.

"I do. You do, too."

"He'll change his mind. Come on, we gotta get ready for war."

Maggie, Beth, Carol, Hershel and Carl stood along the runs, banging pots and pans and shouting to the walkers as Glenn and Daryl layed slabs of wood with coiled barbed wire nailed to them, on to the grass, bashing them in, so that if Woodbury decided to drive up again, they'd have a hard time reaching the courtyard fences with popped tires.

Natalia and Michonne were also in the field, picking off any walkers that got too close to them or the truck.

"Come on. Let's go!" Daryl called, stood at the back of the truck with his crossbow, Glenn sat opposite him.

Natalia got in the drivers seat, Michonne in the passenger, they trusted her to drive now.

Rick opened the gate for them, so that Natalia could drive straight through.

"They drive up to the gate again, maybe some blown tires will stop them." Glenn told Rick as they all hopped out the truck.

"That's a good idea."

"Thank Michonne." Natalia said.

"It was her idea." Daryl added.

"We don't have to win." Michonne said, not picking up on the heavy stares the three were sharing. "We just have to make their getting at us more trouble than its worth."

"That's smart, Mich, you really are an asset to our group." Natalia patting the woman's shoulder.

The others came up and joined them.

"Hey." Maggie smiled at all of them.

"Let's go." Rick nodded for everyone to go back inside.

Natalia was in the courtyard with Sully, Daryl was also in there, pacing, when Rick stormed towards them.

"It's off. We'll take our chances." He told them.

"Called it." Natalia said.

"Not saying it was the wrong call, but this is definitely the right one." Daryl added. "What's wrong?"

"I can't find Merle or Michonne. They've gone."

"What? Already?" Natalia demanded.

"Come on." Daryl nodded, heading towards the generator room, the other two following.

"He was in here. Said he was looking for drugs. Said a lot of things actually." Daryl said, the three spread out, looking around the room.

"Like what?" Rick asked.

"Said that you were gonna change your mind." Daryl picked up a white bag. "Yeah, he took her here. They mixed it up."

"Damn it!" Rick cursed.

"I'm going. Maybe I can stop them before they get there." Natalia offered.

"I will too." Rick said.

"You can't track for shit." Daryl stopped the man and woman in their tracks.

"Then we all will."

"No, just me." Daryl said. "I said I'd go, I'll go. Plus, when they come back here. You need to be ready. Your family too." He walked out the door.

"Go with-"

"Watch Sully for me." She cut Rick off, following after Daryl.

"Thought I said I'd go by myself." Daryl told her as they reached the gate.

"I told you I didn't like it. She's my friend." Natalia told him, fast walking ahead.

They had been walking through the woods before spotting Michonne, in a street. She'd just beheaded a walker.

"Hey!" Daryl called out to her. "Where's my brother? You kill him?"

Natalia looked at him, unimpressed, Merle was an asshole, but she wouldn't have done that, even if he did kidnap her, she didn't know if Merle would let her either, he was fighter, just as much as the trio discussing him.

Michonne shook her head.

"He let me go."

"Are you okay?" Natalia asked her.

"Fine."

"Don't let anyone come after me." Daryl said, seeming to know what his brothers intentions were, before jogging off.

She was torn between staying with Michonne and following Daryl, but she knew Rick sent her with him for a reason, they were both aware Daryl could handle himself, and yet he told her to go, even though she would've anyway.

"Be safe, alright, I'm glad he caved, I voted no, by the way." Natalia smiled at the woman, before sprinting after the redneck.

They had made it to the meeting place, an black car was parked on the grass, the drivers side was opened.

Walkers hadn't noticed them, as they were too busy eating.

Daryl and Natalia quietly walked past them, looking around the place.

Walkers, as well as what looked like to be the Governors men, were dead on the ground.

Daryl shot one walker, with long curly hair, down.

"Oh my god!" Natalia gasped, her hands coming up to cover her face, the handle of her knife was still in her hand.

Daryl walked back and forth, watching as his older brother was taring apart and eating one of the men.

He had seemed to realise they were there, staring at the two new targets as he got to his feet.

Daryl teared up as his only blood left was dead, and now one of the walking dead.

Walker Merle tripped over his latest meal as he moved towards his brother.

Natalia stood back, but was ready to jump in if Daryl needed it, she knew it was important to deal with your own.

"No!" Daryl shouted as he pushed Merle away, but he came back and so he did it again.

Until eventually, Daryl plunged his knife into Merles chest, pushing him to the ground, before stabbing him in the forehead, over and over again, until his head was nothing but a bloody, mushy pile.

"Daryl." Natalia bent down as he fell back, continuing to sob.

She hugged him, she didn't know if he wanted it, but she didn't know what else to do, letting him cry and grieve, she wished how someone could've been there to do that for her, so she thought it was only right to do it for him.

"I'm so sorry. I'm so, so sorry." She muttered repeatedly.

It was silent on the way back, neither of them wanted to talk, neither of them had anything to say.

Once back at the prison, the group had decided that they were going to stay and fight.

Hershel was going to wait in the woods with Beth, Carl and Sully, and Judith, whilst the others would take down the Governor.

She kept her space from Daryl, letting Carol be the one to comfort and talk to him as they prepared for the enemies arrival.

Natalia was hiding in the tombs, she had caused distractions that she knew would lead walkers towards where she could guess the Governor would take his group to, she held onto flashbang cans, waiting for the right moment.

From inside, she heard when they had arrived, shooting at everything insight and blowing up guard towers, it was going to be hella work to put the place back together again, after this.

Natalia made subtle noises to egg them on to come her way.

As soon as she heard the quiet footsteps and hushes of the enemies down the hall, she pulled the tab throwing the cans into the group and ran back to let the chaos unfold.

Members of the group began shooting around, the Governor shouted for everybody to get down, snarls of walkers sounded as they followed the noise and the alarms above rang out, flashing red in the darkness.

She had done her job of pushing them out of the prison, it was up to the others of getting rid of them for good.

Once it was final, she met up with the others outside the prison.

"We did it. We drove them out." Rick told the group.

"We should go after them." Michonne said.

"Yeah, they'll just keep coming back." Natalia backed the woman up.

"We should finish it, for good." Daryl joined in.

"It is finished." Maggie disagreed. "Didn't you see them hightail it out of here?"

"They could regroup."

"We can't take the chance. He's not gonna stop." Glenn spoke up.

"They're right." Carol sighed. "We can't keep living like this."

"So we take the fight back to Woodbury? We barely made it back last time."

"We can't afford loose ends either." Natalia told her.

"Yeah." Rick nodded, "Lets check on the others."

They got back to the cellblock.

Judith cooed as Beth carried her in, the others behind her.

Sully ran straight towards Natalia, jumping at her.

She excitedly petted the dog, smiling at him as she made sure he was okay.

"Thanks, Carl." She nodded at the kid.

"No problem." He said, as he hugged his father. "Dad, I'm coming to Woodbury."

"Carl." Rick sighed, standing back up.

"Dad, I did my job out there." Carl argued. "Just like all of you. Took out one of the Governors soldiers."

"One of his soldiers?" Hershel asked. "A kid running away? He stumbled across us."

"No, he drew on us."

"I'm sorry you had to do that." Rick told his son.

"Its what I was there for. I'm going with you."

Natalia walked outside to prepare to leave for Woodbury, helping to get one of the cars ready as Rick and Hershel talked.

Rick, Daryl, her , Glenn, Maggie and Michonne were going to go.

The others would move back into the prison.

Rick was talking to Carl when they finished, which had ended up in Carl walking away.

They were stood around the car when Rick walked over.

"Rick, we're staying." Glenn said, stood with Maggie. "We don't know where the Governor is. If he comes back, we'll hold him off."

"Just the four of us?" Daryl asked. "Alright." He nodded.

Natalia got in the back, Michonne got in the passenger, whilst Rick talked to Maggie and Glenn.

"You ready?" Natalia asked Michonne.

"Hell yes." The woman answered, as they highfived.

"Is it too early to say you might be my new best friend?" Natalia teased.

"Not in the end of the world times." Michonne grinned back.

Once Rick got in the car, they drove off, Daryl leading the way on his motorbike.

They were driving down a road, soon coming to a stop.

One of the trucks that Woodbury came in, was stranded in the middle of the way.

Dead bodies, some being eaten by walkers, covered the road.

Natalia took out a knife, whilst Michonne unsheathed her sword, both dealing with the walkers, Daryl even shooting some down with his crossbow.

Rick took out one that was eating a boy who sat in the drivers seat of another truck.

A woman with dark curly hair banged on the glass window of the big truck, making Daryl, who was stood in front of it, jump out of the way.

Rick raised his gun at her, heading towards the vehicle as Daryl opened the door.

It was night by the time they got to Woodbury.

The now five snuck around cars, their weapons raised in case of an attack, as they moved towards the gates.

The people on watch shot at them, causing them to shoot back, until hiding behind a car.

"Tyreese!" Karen, the woman, shouted, standing up with her hands in the air. "It's me. Don't-"

"Get down!" Rick shouted, yanking the woman to the ground.

"Karen!" Tyreese shouted back. "Karen, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" She stood back up again, and out from behind the car so that they could see her.

"Where's the Governor?"

"He fired on everyone. He killed them all."

"Why are you with them?" Tyreese asked.

"They saved me!"

"We're coming out!" Rick decided, he looked to the other three, who all shook their heads. "We're coming out." He repeated.

Rick and Daryl were the first to stand up, Rick had his hands in the air, in surrender, whilst Daryl aimed his crossbow at them.

Michonne and Natalia copied, before they all raised their hands up and walked towards the gates, which were then opened by Tyreese, him and Sasha walking out.

"What are you doing here?" He asked Rick.

"We were coming to finish this until we saw what the Governor did." Rick explained.

"He -- He killed them?"

"Yeah." Rick whispered.

"Karen told us Andrea hopped the wall, going for the prison. She never made it. She might be here."

Tyreese let them in, Rick led them to the old warehouse buildings.

"This is where they had Glenn and Maggie." Rick said.

"The Governor held people here?" Tyreese asked.

"He did more than hold them." Daryl told him

"Whatever he told you, I can guarantee it was all bullshit." Natalia put it bluntly.

They arrived at one door, blood was pooling out of it.

Michonne and Natalia grabbed their weapons out of their sheaths, Daryl aimed his gun.

"Will you open it?" Michonne asked Rick.

Rick reached out for the lock, raising his gun with his other hand.

"One... two..." He pulled the door open, being met with the dead and beaten body of Milton Mamet.

"Andrea!" Michonne hissed, seeing the blonde woman leaned against the wall, running in for her.

"I tried to stop them." Andrea said, as the other three entered the room, taking a look at the woman, who looked weak and also covered in blood.

"You're burning up." Michonne whispered, holding her.

Andrea sighed, moving her shirt to reveal bites along her collarbone.

Natalia bowed her head and took a step back.

"Judith, Carl, the rest of them ." She asked.

"Us." Rick told her. "The rest of us.

"Are they alive?" Andrea asked.

"Yeah, they're alive."

She smiled, looking up at Michonne.

"Its good you found them." Michonne nodded as she cried for her friend. "No one can make it alone now."

"I never could." Daryl agreed.

Natalia didn't speak up about her personal experiences, she could handle herself on her own, and she preferred it on her own, until she met the group, she lost count of how many times they had saved her ass, or how much she came to care about them, she had only just begun to start seeing them as family, and she'd do anything for her family.

"I just didn't want anyone to die." Andrea told them. "I can do it myself." She decided her fate.

"No." Michonne told her.

"I have to. While I still can." She looked to Rick. "Please? I know how the safety works."

Natalia guessed it was some inside joke between the pair.

Rick passed over his colt python.

"Well, I'm not going anywhere." Michonne told Andrea.

She looked around the group.

"I tried." Andrea whispered.

"Yeah." Rick responded. "You did. You did."

They eventually left the room, leaving Michonne and Andrea to have some privacy.

Then the gunshot sounded.

Natalia kinda wished she knew the woman before Woodbury, then she had an idea of why she meant so much to the group, she could tell Andrea was a good person who had made bad choices, too bad Natalia was the type to hold grudges.

Rick had offered to take the remaining people of Woodbury back to the prison, uniting them, just like Andrea had died for.
