Chapter four

"You wan answers? You want anything? You get 'em when ya put down the gun!" Alex panted as Rick held him.

"Hmm… guessing your guy on the roof with the sniper-riffle, has he a good aim?" asked Rick while looking at the sniper who was on one of the roof-tops.

"Yates, put that thing down!" Alex shouted at the sniper. "I got this!"

The sniper lowered his riffle.

"So, where did ya get this watch?" asked Rick again.

"From a corpse. Didn' think a dead guy would need it" Alex replied.

"What 'bout the riot-gear or the poncho?" asked Rick.

"We got the riot-gear of dead cop and the poncho of a clothes-line" came Gareth's voice as he stepped into the yard.

Lilly looked over at him. She wasn't even sure how it came to this. Rick just snapped and now they were holding guns at these people. She didn't understand why a poncho or a watch mattered so much to him.

"You talk to me!" Rick threatened Gareth.

"What is there left to say? You don't trust us anymore" Gareth replied.

"Gareth, please" Alex pleaded. "We can wait"

"Shut the hell up Alex. It's okay. Rick what do you want?"

"Where are our people?" Rick asked.

"You didn't answer the question" Gareth replied and gave a sign with his hand.

That's when a gun-shot came and killed Alex. Lilly turned around and saw a man with an assault-riffle run away. He must have aimed at Rick, but got Alex instead.

Everything went down quickly as the shot was fired. Gareth, Mary and the other people of Terminus ran away and Yates, the sniper, started firing at them with his riffle.

"Follow me!" Rick shouted as they ran from the yard. Lilly was still one the same spot, so he grabbed her by her arm. They ran into a warehouse from which they ended up on an alley. It seemed like the people of Terminus directed them, since they were shot at from the roof-tops, but never really hit.

"Keep theme of B!" came Gareth's voice from one of the roof-tops as they ran past a sniper that had an AK-47.

Daryl was leading the way followed by Carl and Michonne, while Rick and Lilly were behind, giving cover-fire. They ran past a place filled with skeletons.

What the fuck? Wondered Lilly at the sight, but she had no option to slow down. Rick had his arm around her, trying to get her fatser.

"We can't slow down!" he muttered to her.

The next thing they ran past was a container marked with D.

"Help! Anyone! Please!" came a young man's voice as they ran past the container.

"In 'ere!" shouted Daryl as the ran into a building.

They ended up in a large room that was filled with candles and dozens of names were written on the floor with age and place of origin. On the wall was written Never again, never trust, we first always.

"I don't think that these people want to kill us" said Michonne.

"Yeah, they seemed to herd us" replied Lilly.

"Doesn' matter what they want, we need to get out" Rick muttered, looking around the room. He saw a door and pointed at it. "That way"

The five survivors ran out and saw the fence. But there was no hope. The gunfire started again and soon the place was filled with snipers everywhere: On the roof-top, behind the fence and through the windows.

"Okay, fun is over!" came Gareth's voice as stepped out again, this time he was on the roof-top. "Drop your weapons!"

No one moved a muscle.

"Now!" Gareth shouted.

Rick looked at the others and put down his gun. Everyone else followed his example.

"Now, Ringleader, go to the train-cart that is marked with A!" Gareth shouted.

Rick didn't react.

"Do as we say, the boy will follow you! Else he dies now and you still end up there"

Rick started to walk to the train-cart.

"Now goes the archer" Gareth continued.

Daryl followed Rick.

"Then the samurai"

That was Michonne.

"Now the mother"

Lilly walked towards the train-cart, wondering why Gareth called her that. Did he think she was the mother of Carl?

"Alright! Ringleader, archer, samurai and mother go the door in that order!"

"My son!" Rick shouted back,

"Go kid!" Gareth said as carl walked up to them.

"Ringleader you open the door and all of you walk in!" came Gareth's voice.

Everyone stepped in and Rick closed the door behind.

Inside the train-cart it was dark and dirty. It was difficult to tell if they were alone or not. And they weren't.

"Rick?" came a young male voice from the dark.

Everyone turned around and saw eight figures come out if the dark. One young Asian man, a young, pretty brunet woman, an African-american man, an African-american woman, a big male ginger, a Hispanic woman, a man with a mullet and a young woman that resembled…

"Tara?" Lilly asked as she saw her sister.

"Lilly?" she replied looking at her.

Lilly ran to her sister and hugged her.

"I thought ya died!" Tara muttered. "Sorry for not looking for ya. It looked like ya were swarmed!"

"It's okay!" Lilly replied while holding her. "Where is Alisha?"

"She's dead! I saw what he did to Meghan! I'm so sorry! I should have stayed back at the camp and have protected ya two!"

"It's my fault" Lilly said while still holding her sister. "I let that man in our life"

The two sisters hadn't listened to Rick who was talking to the Asian guy and the pretty brunet about some of the people.

"They are friends" explained the pretty brunet.

"Now they're friends of ours" Daryl replied.

"However long that lasts" mutters the big ginger.

"No" Rick said while turning to the door of the train-cart. "This clown and hos goons are gonna feel pretty stupid when the find out"

"Find out what?" aksed Lilly.

"That they're fucking with the wrong people" Rick replied.
