Ok first things first. English is not my first language, one of the reasons I'm writing this is to improve my English. The other reason is because I love TWD and I thought I could give this writing thing a try. If you see any mistakes in my spelling or grammar please let me know.

The new people seemed rugged and dangerous, which caused alarm and curiosity amongst the people of Alexandria, everyone seem to be wanting to take a look at them, everyone but two girls, Jo and Enid.
Both girls where the outcasts of the community, the lone wolves; each of them arrived alone to Alexandria, being found by Aaron in critical conditions. The two girls, feeling out of place in this community, started a friendship filled with trust and loyalty towards each other.
Jo being quiet and mysterious was often overlooked by most people, who were only interested in talking to her when she was helping Doctor Peter in the clinic, she used to be a nurse so she became an essential member of the community.

Before arriving to Alexandria, Jo had being part of a group who got separated by a herd of walkers, so she ended up alone for a while trying to find more survivors.
After many days of walking by herself, she made it to a place called Terminus, an abandoned train station, where she thought she would find shelter, but it turned out being the opposite; the members of Terminus were cannibals, they were eating every person who arrived at the station looking for sanctuary.
Jo managed to escape that place, but not without a fight, Gareth, the leader, caught her on her way to the woods, he tried to restrain her but she fought back, he was strong but she was fast, he was able to stab her on her side, and she managed to kick him and hurt him enough to run away.
She stayed hidden for a day before she was forced to leave her hiding place to find food and water. She was lucky to find a stream of water, where she was able to drink and clean her wound on her stomach; she was losing a lot of blood and she knew she was not going to make it.
She heard steps behind her, but she was in no condition to fight walkers, so she gave up, she collapsed to the floor and thought about her family. She started crying because she missed them, when the earth went to hell she tried to find her family, she went to her parents house and found them dead. She went to her brother's house but no one was there, her brother had been in the hospital when everything started, and she knew he was dead to because the cities where the first ones to go down, she couldn't find her sister in law or her nephew, they were probably dead too, the probability of surviving in this chaos was very low.
She smiled thinking of them, she was ready to let go and meet with them, she wanted to see them again, her parents, her brother, her nephew, her sister in law, her friends. With a final sigh she let go, she closed her eyes and collapsed to the floor where she passed out, footsteps where the last thing she heard.
When Jo woke up, she found herself strained to a bed in a room with an unknown man, her first thought was that the Terminus people had finally found her, so she tried to get free from her restrains. The unknown man tried to make her stop but she was not going to stop until she was free. Hearing the commotion, two more guys entered the room, when she finally calm down due to being exhausted, one of the guys introduced himself as Aaron, who told her that he had found her wandering around by herself in the woods and decided to follow her and decided to help her.
And that's how she came to Alexandria.

Enid put her book down and looked out the window, she had heard a commotion outside and was curious to know what it was, she saw some of the Alexandrians were walking hurriedly towards the gate.
"What do you think is happening? " She asked Jo.
Jo, who was standing outside the window curiously looking at the people walking to the front gate, decided to ask Martha, a nice lady who was passing by what was happening "Hey Martha, what's going on?"
"The recruiters are back, they brought a large group of people with them" Martha said
"How many?" Jo asked.
"I saw at least 10 of them, they look dangerous" Martha said looking scared.
"They might look dangerous but I trust Aaron, he wouldn't bring back bad people" Jo said smiling trying to calm down Martha.
"I hope you're right Josephine, they do have a baby with them, maybe they're not bad… Anyway I have to back to my knitting, take care Jo" Martha said walking away to her house.
"A baby you said?" Jo asked in shock. "Yes, a little girl!" Martha yelled from across the street.
"A baby? How did they survived out there with a baby?" Enid asked from the doorway.
"Who knows, maybe they had a camp or somewhere safe?" Jo answered.
"But if they had a safe place, why did Aaron recruit them?" Enid said looking at Jo who had a look on her face.
"You're right, I think we should check them out" Jo said walking down the front stairs "Are you coming?" She asked turning to look at Enid, who sighed and said "Yeah… my book was getting boring anyway"
Both girls were starting to get curious hearing some of the things the people were saying about the newcomers.
They heard something about a baby, a police officer and a woman who had a ninja sword.
Finally reaching the front gate, they walked through the mass of people who were standing there to take a better look at the new people.
Jo saw the baby, a cute little girl, she saw a couple of girls who seem to look her age, an Asian guy and then looked to at the bearded man who was talking to Deanna, when she saw him, she couldn't hide her surprise.
"RICK!?" Jo said with a cry.
The man talking to Deanna look away to someone calling his name, when he saw who called his name, he brought his hands to his face, not believing what he was seeing.
"Jo…"
