chapter 7, kidnapped

Victory

That sensation shook through the Governors body like a warm chill on a cool winters day, that feeling of victory was like no other. The Governor looked down at the unconscious boy that lay on the ground, that sherif hat he seems to never take off lay next to his head, his mop of brown hair spread wildly on the concrete ground. Blood smeared on the concrete next to the boys head. His head did bounce off the ground, the Governor reminded himself as he grabbed the boy by his shirt, swiftly throwing him over his shoulder.

He noticed how light the boy was, sure he was young but he couldn't possibly be this light, almost like his body was empty. Even Penny...

The memory of his daughter forced him to stop in front of the hole he cut open on the prison fence. He held his body weight with one arm against the fence while the other holds the boy in place. The Governor shook away the memory away and was replaced by a snarl. Revenge, he told himself again, I will get my revenge. He thought about the many thing he could do to Rick's son as he went through the hole in the fence. Biters snarled noticing the over the roaring thunder as they limped their way towards him.

Tugging off a small bag off his belt he chucked it through the hole back into the prison ground, the biters stopped following the Governor and followed the smell of fresh blood. With nothing stopping him the Governor walked through the forest brush to his truck that stood waiting for him, perfect.

Glenn awoke to the sound of thunder, when his eyes opened he noticed the lack of sunlight usually flooding in the guard tower windows, instead it was blocked by clouds. Great, he thought sarcastically. Turning over to his side he saw his wife wasn't next to him. He remembered her saying something about having to go back to their cell early in the morning to help Beth with...something.

Stretching his arms he slipped on the pair of jeans and plain white top he wore the day before. Grabbing his rifle he walked through the door, looking for anything out of the ordinary. Looking out into the forest he couldn't see much since everything was darker, just then a drop fell onto Glenn's arm, he looked at it then at the sky. Another fell onto him, yep it was raining.

Looking back down there was still nothing to be seen, maybe I'll be more help inside, he decided. Looking to the right his body did a one-eighty degree turn at the sight In front of him.

PKOW!

Rick jumped at the sound of gunfire, Judith still layer in his arms half asleep.

"Rick!", Maggie came running to him.

"What's going on he said handing Judith over to Carol as she too came running.

"I don't know-Glenn fired the shot", she said in panic for her husband as they rushed towards the cell block door, followed by a few others.

"Is anyone else out there!"

"I don't know-it was only him in the guard tower"

"Alright, everyone be on your guard we don't know what out there!", another shot echoed through the prison. Rick slid the door open and was met by the dead moans of walkers. They where scattered everywhere. Many of the walkers saw them and now where pressing themselves against the metal surrounding the cell block C doorway.

Taking out his knife he stabbed the nearest walker through the metal gap, everyone did the same while Maggie aimed her rifle through the hole Glenn made in the metal a while ago and fired at approaching walkers. One by one the walkers became fewer and fewer. Pushing the gate open was difficult with all the walker corpses piled up against it. Once they where through Rick pulled his Python and shot at the walkers coming through a hole spotted in the fence.

The last walker fell limp to the ground, everyone breathed deeply. "How did they get in", he heard Tyrees ask while they followed Rick.

"There's a hole", Rick said grabbing different parts of the fence."Maggie, find me some rope, we need to close this", she nodded and ran off passing her father as he hobbled towards Rick and company.

"What happened?"

"Walkers", was all he said letting go of the fence,"came in through here"

Herschel looked at the gaping hole in the fence,"and how did this happen"

Rick didn't answer, how did this happen? His attention was brought down to a small bag that lay torn apart on the ground right below the fence. Kneeling down he picked up the remains and looked at it. The walkers where clawing at this, he decided turning it inside out. A piece of meat fell from one of gaping holes.

Alarmed, Rick got up and looked into the forest in front of him. His eyes darting left and right, scanning over every little thing like it was a predator.

"What was in it?", Tyrees walked beside Rick.

"Go tell Glenn we need to speak", he ignored the question,"take over guard duty 'til then", Rick suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Carl since he went outside here this morning. The truth hit him like a tidal wave and he broke into a sprint towards his cell block.

It been a while I know, but now my life has calmed down and I can focus on this fic again, update soon;)
