Negan pulled her into the room with a satisfied grin.
"Damn!" Four of the men exaggerated. Sadie glared over to them and blinked. They instantly stopped.
"She has limits assholes." Negan let go of her hand and went to talk with a few other Saviors. She shrugged and stood behind the serving counter.
Dwight shrugged and met with her and Claude.
He tilted his head, wondering why she looked so nice. "Don't ask." Sadie hummed. He shrugged. "Not fond of people?"
She sensed the urge for beer in his voice and opened a bottle.
"Strangers. And no I don't need to be introduced to everyone here." "That's understood." He sipped from the bottle. "Anything interesting on your agenda Sadie?"
She sighed. "Not really." Dwight sighed. "Don't really want to talk tonight?" "I don't really have anything to talk about."
"Share about that badass time you climbed the fence." Simon walked over in a tease.
'Seems like enough security to me.' Sadie smiled and rolled her eyes, knowing what the sentence was translating to. "I'm sorry. Were you speaking to me?" She popped open a bottle for him.
He smirked.
"So." Claude tried to start a conversation.
"Thinking about getting bigger Sadie?" Simon referred to her chest. Sadie smiled, feeling comfortable enough to accept his humor. "By who? You?"
Claude sighed. 'Just for tonight. I don't like where this is going.'
"Everything comes with a price." She winked. "Keep talkin'." He leaned on the counter.
Dwight and Claude looked unsurely at each other and walked off. "I certainly have more class than that." The former judge shook his head.
"She reminds me of my wife.." Dwight cleared his eyes with his hand. "I'm sorry to hear that."
"If you shave, perhaps I can..oh I don't know..slip something special into your..booze." She tried to loosen the corset as it dug into her skin.
Negan glared at her from across the room and she stopped. 'Just deal with it.'
"Special huh?"
She rolled her eyes, letting the subject drop.
Sadie opened another bottle.
"Hey. Look who it is." Gavin took it.
"What can I say? I was taught well." She winked.
Suddenly, a gunshot was heard outside. Everyone looked up at the ceiling since there were no windows. "What the shit?" Sadie whispered and narrowed her eyes.
Negan walked into the hallway with an irritated look in his eyes. He silently pointed Lucille at Dwight, Simon, Claude, and two other Saviors.
Simon set down his bottle and motioned Sadie to change and to come along as well.
She cleared her throat as another gunshot sounded, triggering the girl to run up the stairs and lock the door. She undid the corset and threw on her tank top, shirt, and boots. "I don't give a shit about my hair."
After grabbing the jacket on a hook, Sadie met with them just as the doors opened.
"Hi! You're Rick right?" Negan responded.
"Where is she?" Rick lowered his gun in between two large pieces of scrap metal.
"Huh. I was just going to pop in and say hello believe it or not. Patience is key Rick."
"Where..is..she?"
Negan simply grinned at him.
"Are you going to make me count?" Rick huffed. "God damn is that hot!" Negan grabbed Sadie's right hand behind him and pulled her aside. "Pres and to!"
Sadie glared as she spotted Esmeralda, Clopin, and Quasimodo next to a car shielded with more scrap metal.
'Be calm and collected. I'm Negan.' She folded her arms. "Well shit! I'm sorry. I didn't realize I was so popular."
"Sadie belongs with us! And so does Eugene, Dwight, and.." Rick pressed his lips, trying to remember Frollo's first name. "Stampede to the point, Rick." Claude spoke up as he and Simon stood next to Negan.
"She's a traitor!" Esmeralda shouted.
Negan rolled his eyes then locked eyes on her chest with a smile. She huffed and looked away.
"A traitor? Moi?" Sadie tilted her head, pointing to her heart.
"Yes you!" Quasimodo glared at her, folding his arms.
She blinked. 'I don't have time for this nonsense.'
"We no longer provide for you." Rick stated.
Negan looked over at Sadie and pressed his lips. "Ah. Gee Rick." He scratched the back of his neck. "All that f*ckin' talk about agreements and shit you gave me didn't mean anything then. But I personally wouldn't want us to break each others balls over that shit!"
Sadie sighed. 'Don't talk.'
"Ten!.." She listened as Rick started to count down. Everyone on the opposite side of the fence drew their weapons.
'Where the hell did they get all those?'
"Nine!.." Negan simply grinned, so did Simon. "Eight!.."
All of the guns started to fire at the Sanctuary widows and everyone ran back inside.
Sadie quickly hid her tiny body between a gap in the hallway as the men ran to find cover. "Let's not get run over today." She huffed.
Claude, Simon, and Negan sighed. "Where is Sadie?"
Negan stared at the former judge. "We'll find her! Chill out for one damn second!" He rose his voice then tensely huffed. "We'll find her. Return to the pit."
Both Claude and Simon hurried back there as he went to look for her.
Sadie tried to sit down and think but the space was too tight. "Ah screw it. Now." The girl began to think of some sophisticated form of revenge, but sadly was brain dead at the moment.
"Agh!" Her head started to hurt from thinking too hard.
She immediately shut up and held her breath as footsteps were heard walking down the hall. 'I'll be fine.' Her eyes shut as his words whispered to her. 'You're a tiger who earned her damn stripes.'
Sadie narrowed her eyes and forced herself out of hiding. 'If you wish to start a riot, let the f*ckin' riot resume Rick.'
Sadie grabbed a sniper rifle off of a hook and ran into a room. She slowly entered it, being aware of the shattered glass on the floor. Bullets were still being fired and she locked the door.
She grabbed a book from a bookshelf and set it on the ground. She rested her right knee on it and tried to hid her body between the bricks separating the windows.
Sadie sighed, but noticed the cars starting to leave. 'F*ckin' cowards.'
There was a knock on the door and she gulped. Her eyes looked down below out the window. 'It's only two feet at most.' She heard another knock and she shivered. Sadie cleared the rest of the glass with the gun and snuck out the window.
She gulped and ran into an empty trailer. 'I can do this.' Her eyes shut, gripping the gun.
Negan kicked open the door of the room and huffed. The first thing he noticed was the book on the ground. He groaned and ran outside, trying to locate any other place she could be.
Sadie shut her eyes and leaned her head against the wall. "I'm okay..I'm okay." She held the door shut with her back and shot one of the trailer windows.
Glass shattered to the ground as a result. In some cases, impaling walkers in the shoulder.
Sadie wasted no time in firing each bullet. She gulped, hoping her ammo didn't run out. "Come and get me you little shits." The girl narrowed her eyes as they crowded near the window.
Negan ran outside and scowled as a hoard of twenty walkers crowded around the trailer. He jogged over and bashed one in the head with Lucille against it.
Sadie shivered. 'What the hell was that?'
After finishing them all off, Sadie slowly caught her breath. "Damn you..Rick."
Negan held up Lucille at eye level and smiled. He killed another one of them and noticed nearly twenty more of their friends trudging over.
He flung open the trailer door and Sadie lightly screamed. "Oh." She cleared her throat while sitting in a corner. "It's you."
Negan ran in and tightly hugged her. "F*ck darlin'." He kissed her neck. 'Wow. He like..worships me.' Sadie hugged back. "Was that you? At the door inside?" "Mmhmm."
He placed his other hand on the back of her head. "I was scared. Sorry about that." "You had every right to be scared darlin'. But probably wasn't the best idea to hide in here. We're surrounded."
"Doesn't this trailer open from the top?" She blew on her weapon. "It does. But it's the size of a god damn lemon." He huffed.
Sadie blinked. "That's not stopping me." She climbed a ladder and opened the top. He rolled his eyes. "You are such a badass!"
"A few scratches won't kill me." She stuck her head out and wiggled her hand through. Negan sighed, holding her waist so that she didn't fall.
Just as expected, Sadie was scratched trying to free her hand. "Shit." She squeezed her gun through the hole and attempted to fire with the lack of space to aim.
He lightly pushed her up and she huffed. It helped her aim but her waist payed the price of more scratches.
'Please tell me I'm not bleeding.' Sadie shot each one below then sighed, resting her head on the top.
Negan looked outside the shattered glass, surprised that she cleared them all. Sadie shook her head and climbed down, resulting in more scratches on her shoulders, neck, and cheeks.
She jumped down and shook her head again. "Am I bleeding?" He knelt down and lifted her shirt. "Nope. You're all set darlin'." He kissed one of her scratches with his eyes closed. "Proud of you."
She weakly moaned as his lips met hers. "Is the coast clear outside?"
Negan shook his head and snapped back into reality. "Shit. All that god damn noise is bound to attract even more." Sadie ran after him back into the Sanctuary. "Alright. You..are going to work from the inside if they start to overrule." "What about conserving ammunition?"
He tilted his head. "We are more then set on that darlin'. Now you gotta promise me that you will stay inside." "I promise." She nodded and went to put her corset back on. Negan grabbed her left arm, then her hand. "You gotta promise me baby. I can't lose you." He huffed.
"Promise." "Alright." He kissed her forehead. "Should I load all my shit into this room then?" Negan looked out the window below, noticing a group of five walkers dragging themselves towards the entrance door. He bit his tongue.
"Yes. There's a better view in here. Can I trust you to keep this door locked until tomorrow morning?" "Yes sir." She ran into his room and grabbed her bag.
The girl looked around and made a bag of popcorn in the microwave. "Don't want to starve." She poured a glass of water.
Once it beeped, she poured it into a bowl and headed back downstairs. Negan smirked.
"Be sure to get some sleep tonight. Don't stay up too late." Sadie set everything on the ground and wrapped her arms around his waist. "I love you."
"You too baby. You too." He shut his eyes. Sadie went to undress but Negan decided not to close the door. "Bye." She giggled and shut the door, locking it.
Sadie hung her jacket on a hanger and took off her pants. She put on her shorts and hoodie before firing her weapon at the intruders.
The men were all huddled in the pit and Negan strolled in with Lucille. "I don't know what the f*ck just happened, but fasten your f*ckin' seatbelts. It's going to be one hell of a ride."
"Where's the..uh..kid?" One of the Saviors asked. "Oh. I locked her in a closet somewhere." Negan chuckled and leaned over to Claude and Simon, who nodded. "In all seriousness though, she's safely tucked away in a room shooting walkers."
"We're freakin' clueless! Now what?" "I'm leaving!"
Negan rolled his eyes as everyone started panicking and smashed a beer bottle with Lucille, getting everyone's attention.
"No one is going anywhere!" Negan rose his voice. "I am made of steel and I am not leaving until I am damn good and ready!" He blinked. "Anymore bullshit questions?"
Sadie quietly snacked on the popcorn as she continued aiming. "What time is it?" She looked around for a clock. "Ten forty five." She sighed as she missed hitting three zombies.
The girl cleared her throat. "I guess that's fine for now." She sat on the bed and cleared her eyes. "Ugh. Zombie tunnel vision." She lay down with her eyes open and fixed the sheets. "Door's locked..front door is sealed." She closed her eyes but opened them again.
'Few more.' She took another barrel of bullets from a box and shot ten more. "Better." She placed it on the ground. Sadie turned on a stereo and turned the volume down. She shrugged as Easy Street began playing. Sadie closed her eyes, falling asleep as it played on a loop.
