The Walking Dead: Carver vs. The Governor
A/N: If you don't know, my next story is going to be continuing the series with the season 2 telltale characters after the events of Carver vs. The Governor. So it'll pick up with season 4 of the show. So let me know what you think about that.
Retaliation
The group was in the truck still on there way to the prison. "We need to go back for Rebecca." Bonnie said.
"We stick to the plan." Rick said frustratingly.
"Rick! What is wrong with you!? We just can't leave h-" Bonnie was cut off.
"We're going back to the prison and we're going to get more firepower. We can't possibly take them all on with what we got. You saw for yourself we barely made it out of there alive." Rick said.
"It's a better plan than running back in there like dumb***es." Kenny said.
"Rick, which way is this prison?" Luke asked while driving.
"Just keep strait. It's by the river it shouldn't be that hard to find." Rick said.
"What if they come after us?" Luke asked.
"They won't. They have eachother to deal with." Kenny said.
Carver's Camp
The camp guards were cleaning up after the massive shootout. A lot of walkers were everywhere trying to get in along with the giant herd getting closer and the guards were on the roof taking them out. "How we doin' up here?" Troy asked Hank on the roof with 10 other guards.
"Well, we're holdin' em' back, so that's a plus. But I don't know for how long. They just keep comin'." Hank said.
"I'll go talk to Bill." Troy said walking away. He got down to the pen where the shootout occured and he saw Carver pacing back and forth.
"Bill, we have a problem." Troy said walking over to him.
"That b****rd has my baby! We're going over to his camp and we're killin' that sonuvab***h!" Carver yelled to Troy, Tavia, and some guards.
"Bill, we need to fortify this place! The herd is already here! It's already hard to fight em' off and you want to take the guards and let the camp fall?!" Troy yelled.
"This guy shows up, blows down our walls, killed your friends, almost killed you, and you don't even want to do somethin' about it?! Wow, you're softer than I thought, Troy." Carver said.
"We need everyone we got to deal with this herd, and you obviously can't go by yourself. So what are you going to do?!" Troy asked.
"We'll take our chances. That's my baby Rebecca's carrying! If the camp is destroyed, so be it. Once we take them out, we'll live at there place." Carver said looking at Troy with a crazy look in his eyes.
"If you say so, Bill." Troy said walking away.
Woodbury
At Woodbury, Rebecca is being held in the same place Glenn and Maggie were tied up in a chair. "What do you want from me?!" Rebecca asked the Governor. He sat down in front of her. He sat down across from her.
"Nothing." The Governor said.
"But you can provide help for us. Live bait." He added.
"I'm not doing nothing for you." Rebecca said fiercely.
"You don't have to...he'll come looking for you. And when he does, he'll wish he hadn't." The Governor said evily. He left the room and closed the door behind him. "What are we gonna do with her?" Martinez asked.
"Once he gets here, we'll have to kill her. We can't let him think we ain't nothing and that he can walk in here and take her. Once he's here, he won't be able to escape." The Governor said.
"What about the children and elderly?" Andrea asked walking over.
"We'll try to avoid a shootout as best we can. We'll kill Carver secretly and quietly." The Governor said.
The Prison
Luke pulled up to the prison and Carl and Carol opened the gate. Luke drove in. "Finally. You were gone for a day and a half. We were worried." Carl asked Rick as he was getting out.
"We got into a bad situation that we wern't getting out of so soon. We'll talk inside." Rick said.
"Who are they?" Carl asked.
"They helped us get out." He answered.
"Oscar?" Carol said worryingly.
"He...didn't make it." Rick said sadly.
"You gonna introduce us?" She asked.
"This is Kenny, this is Luke, that's Clementine, Nick, Mike, Jane, Bonnie, Rebecca, Carlos, Sarah, and Sarita." Rick said pointing to each of them.
"Heya." Kenny said to Carol and Carl.
"I met Kenny and Clementine before I met up with you guys in Atlanta. Nice running into familiar faces." Glenn said to Carol as she smiled.
"Let's get inside. We don't know if we were being followed." Rick said.
The group entered the prison. "Did you guys take this prison all by yourselves?" Luke asked.
"There were more of us." Carol said.
"Everybody, I would like you to meet our new housemates." Rick said to the rest of the group. Hershel, Maggie, Beth, and Merle looked up.
Kenny saw Hershel and quickly looked away. He didn't expect to see the man who's son he got killed. Hershel just stared at Kenny with a distasteful look.
Carver's Camp
All of Carver's men have stopped fighting the walkers to go with Carver to attack the Governor. "Everbody pack up and get ready to head out!" Carver said. The whole camp was going with him, including Troy, Tavia, Hank, Russel, Wyatt, Vince, and Shel and Becca. They got loaded with guns and supplies for the trip. Since they don't have any transportation anymore, they are going to have to track them down on foot. They all procceded into the woods.
The Prison
The group is discussing the situation with Rebecca at the tables. "So what's the plan? We gonna go running back in there?" Kenny asked.
"Well, we can't risk being detected by using the truck. And we can't risk it being taken." Glenn said.
"We'll go on foot. They probably expect us to come back anyway to rescue Rebecca. We need to be quick with this so we'll use flash bangs and smoke grenades." Rick said.
"Wow, you have that kind of weaponry?! How'd you get it? You guys are pretty armed to the teeth." Luke said.
"We cleared this whole place out. The armory was full useful stuff. The rest Rick and Michonne found." Daryl said.
"What do we do when we get there?" Maggie asked.
"We know that herd is probably attacking right now so if we're lucky, we can sneak in and get Rebecca while they're distracted without firing a shot. But if that fails, that's what the smoke bombs and flash grenades are for." Rick said.
"Alright, let's get ready." Kenny said getting up.
"Has everyone forgot that the Governor still wants to kill us? Huh. Are we forgetin' about that part. The battle could be over by now. What if he's on his way?" Merle asked.
"They have Rebecca. Either they're working together or one of them has her. I think they have eachother to worry about." Rick said.
"Whatever you say, Officer Friendly." Merle said. Everyone left the room into the cell block. While everyone was leaving Hershel came to Rick. "Rick, I don't like this. You're taking way too much people with you. We need some firepower too, you know." He said.
"We need as much people as we can." Rick said.
"These people you brought in. We don't know them. I don't think leaving us in the same cell block as them is a good idea just yet." Hershel said.
"These are two armies fighting against eachother. I don't think we can make it out of there alive with 5 people. There's enough people to help defend if something happens. Mike, Carlos, Sarita, Nick, Carol. Clementine's pretty tough." Rick said.
"Okay, Rick. You win. I'm not going to give you a lecture. Just go rescue that woman and bring her back." Hershel replied.
"We'll be back. Don't you worry, Hershel." Rick said going into the cell block.
Carver and camp
The whole camp is on the road on there way to The Governor. The group was cautious of an attack. "How do we even know where his place is?" Troy asked pointing his AK whenever he heard something.
"Oh, we'll know. Trust me. It has to be walled or gated. Shouldn't be that hard to find." Carver said aiming his colt python.
The Prison
Hershel came to Kenny when he was loading up his M16 and pistol. He half looked at him and continued what he was doing. "I'm not mad, Kenny. I why you did what you did. I've learned a lot since this all started. Rick and his group brought me to my senses. I know why you did it. You wanted to protect your boy. I know I would protect my girls no matter what. I would've done the same thing, Kenny." Hershel said.
"Thank you, Hershel. I've been struggling a lot through this whole thing. Been thinking about what happened the whole time. Lee, the guy you met, snapped me out of it. He was a great friend. When my wife and son passed...he took care of me." Kenny said emotionally.
"I'm glad we can get passed this. And I'm sorry about you're wife and son. Make sure you come back from the rescue." Hershel said.
"Thanks." Kenny said going over to the group.
"We ready to go or not?" Jane said holstering her pistol.
"We have 6 people with automatics. So whoever doesn't should carry a bag of guns." Glenn said putting a bag over his shoulder.
"Clem, I think you should stay here for this one." Kenny said to Clementine.
"Don't worry. You don't have to tell me twice. I usually do everything." Clementine said walking back into the cell block.
"You got that right." Kenny said loading his M16.
"We ready to go?" Bonnie asked.
"Let's head out." Rick said.
Carl caught Rick before he left. "Hey, dad. Be careful." He said.
"I will, Carl." Rick said.
The group headed for the woods.
Carver and the camp
Carver and the camp finally reached Woodbury. There were several soldiers on the wall. "How're we gonna get passed em'?" Troy asked.
"Follow me. Stay low and quiet." Carver said. He started leading them around the perimeter. They eventually made it to the back warehouse where they keep all the walkers for the fights. "Get ready. We're gonna come at em' hard." Carver said. They all silently ran towards the front of the building.
They ran out into the open and started opening fire on whoever they saw. Bullets ripped through Woodbury citizens. Tyreese and Sasha, who were on the wall, saw heard the shooting. "What the h**l!" Tyreese yelled aiming at them. Sasha aimed her rifle and shot down 2 Howes guards.
"We need to get out of here!" Tyreese said almost getting hit. Sasha and Tyreese climbed over the wall and ran into the woods.
Woodbury citizens were screaming in horror and terror as some lost loved ones while soldiers were shooting back at Carver and crew while some evacuated the people. "Where is she, a**h**es!" Carver yelled firing his AK.
The Governor, Martinez, Shumpert, Andrea, and Allen came running out of the main house. "What's going on?!" Andrea asked.
"I knew he'd show up. Don't let him near that woman!" The Governor ordered.
Martinez, Shumpert, and Allen started opening fire on the Howes guards.
Troy and 3 other Howes guys ran up to the wall soldiers and started fist fighting them. One soldier grabbed Troy and held him back while another tried to stab him but is grabbed and thrown over the wall by Hank. Troy elbows the soldier holding him in the stomach and shot by one of the Howes guards. Woodbury soldiers on the wall spotted them and opened fire on them killing a Howes guard.
Rick and group
The group reached Howes and saw walkers all around the building. "Looks overrun." Michonne said.
"Stay close. We can't risk drawing any attention. Let's just get Rebecca and get out." Rick said. The group moved towards the camp. Michonne and Jane were taking out walkers along the way. The group snuck in through the hole The Governor made. Daryl went in first aiming his crossbow while Rick and Luke covered the right and left. The rest followed. "Nobody's here so far." Daryl said lowering his crossbow.
"We have a lot more areas to check." Kenny said.
"It's way too quiet. Just the sounds of the dead. Nobody's here." Rick said stabbing a walker coming towards him.
"The only other person who would have her is The Governor. Maybe we should check Woodbury." Glenn suggested.
"Nice, now I could finally put a bullet in his head." Merle said.
"Yeah, this place is done." Maggie said.
The group left the camp and headed back into the woods.
When they finally reached Woodbury, they heard loud gunshots and screams and yells. They noticed the soldiers on the roof were gone. "The h**l's goin' on?" Kenny asked.
"It has to be Carver. Remember he's after Rebecca too." Bonnie said.
"We know where she's probably being held. We don't need to get into a fight." Rick said. Rick led the group around the back to the door to 'the chambers'. Luke quickly opened the door and Rick, Daryl, and Kenny went in aiming their weapons followed by the rest of the group. "Get back." Luke said after spotting a soldier walk by.
"Alright guys, in and out just like we planned." Rick said. Rick, Daryl, and Luke rolled in flash bang grenades. "Ahh!" The Soldiers exclaimed when they went off. Rick, Daryl, Luke, Kenny, and Maggie quickly went in and grabbed Rebecca. "Thank God." She said. Before the soldiers could get their sight back, the group already left with Rebecca. "S**t. They took her." A soldier said.
"Governor, sir. The lady's gone! They took her!" A soldier said on his walkie-talkie.
"How?! All of Carver's men are out here." The Governor said.
"I think it was that prison group, sir." He said.
"S**t! Go after them. Do not let them escape!" The Governor ordered.
Rick and the group got outside and stopped to rest. "Thanks for getting me out of there." Rebecca said.
"No problem." Rick said.
"Wait, where's Merle?" Maggie asked.
"He said he wanted to kill The Governor." Glenn said.
"I'll go after him." Daryl said grabbing his crossbow and M4.
Carver and his crew are still shooting out with the Woodbury soldiers. Carver noticed The Governor, Martinez, and a few soldiers run the opposite direction. "Are they retreating?" Tavia asked.
"No. Looks like something else caught their attention." Carver said.
Merle is by himself sneaking around Woodbury. He entered a building and made sure no one was in there. He opened a window and started shooting down both Howes guards and Woodbury soldiers. He was blending his gunfire with the sound of the shootout. He had The Governor in his sights but when he tried to shoot him a soldier got in the way and was killed. Out of nowhere, a soldier came up behind him and put him in a choke hold. Merle stabbed him in the eye with his blade. Two more soldiers attacked him bringing him to the ground and started kicking him.
"You leave him to me!" The Governor yelled grabbing Merle's shirt and dragging him. Merle was able to punch The Governor and get up giving him another punch. The Governor grabbed his arm on the third swing and kneed him in the stomach and slamming him against a table. Merle tried to push the Governor's face back but gets his fingers bitten off and spit out. The Governor stepped back and looked at Merle shamefully in defeat. "I ain't gonna beg. I ain't begging you!" Merle said.
"No." The Governor said aiming his gun.
(GUNSHOT)
Daryl was looking around Woodbury for Merle while the shootout was still going on. He entered the building Merle went to. He turned the corner surprised and devastated to see Merle eating the corpse of the soldier he killed, as a walker. Daryl started to cry at the site of it. Merle tried coming towards him but Daryl kept pushing him away and crying. He stabbed him in the head bringing him to the floor and just kept stabbing away his anger and fustration. Then he just layed crying on the floor.
The battle was still raging on between Carver and The Governor's people. S**t. We're losing too many people." Carver said to Troy.
The Governor came out firing his STEYR AUG at Carver and Troy. "Where's Rebecca?!" Carver yelled in the distance.
"I'm afraid she's long gone, Bill!" The Governor said.
"Motherf***r!" Carver yelled and fired his AK at him. The Governor barely flinched and fired back hitting Carver in the shoulder. Troy fired his AK at the Governor causing him to run for cover.
"There's no reason for us to be here anymore. Tell the others to retreat." Carver said to Troy as he was helping him up.
They all retreated back into the forest.
Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. Sorry this took so long I was being lazy. I honestly don't know how many more chapters this story will have. It might have two or three more depending on how much I can pack into chapters. Please remember to Favorite and Review! :)
