I came to, handcuffed to a bed. I started to try to get free from the cuffs, when a man in a cop uniform walked into, holding a gun up at me.
"Are you bitten?" He asked me as I looked at him.
"What do you mean?" I asked as he pointed his gun at the bandages on my arm.
"I just woke up from being in a coma!" He lowered his gun and took a closer look at me.
"Wait a minute." the cop paused, "It can't be." he stepped back, "Alissa, is that you?" He brought a hand to his face, and pulled off the bandanna from his face.
"Officer Grimes!" I gasped in surprise. He came over and uncuffed me from the bed. I sat up rubbing my wrists. "Rick, what the hell is going on?"
He brushed off my question. "I'm doing a supply run with my crew." Rick offered me his hand to help me stand. I took it and we started walking out of the house as he asked me, "Do you want to come with me?"
I looked down at the ground, "Do you know if you know where my husband and daughter are?" I looked up at Rick, "You work with my husband. His name is Brandon." A smile formed on Rick's face as we came to a stop in the middle of the street, he placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Yes Alissa." My hand covered my mouth as his hand lifted off of my shoulder. "They are back at the farm where my crew has set up camp." Tears start to run down my face. He smiles at me, "Let's get to the meet up stop."
Rick and I started walking into the direction of the meet up location. It took us about a quarter of a mile to get to a four way interaction. Where a man standing next to a motorcycle was waiting for us.
"What took you so long?" Rick walked over to the man and hugged him. "Rick, who's this chick?" His hand went to his crossbow on his back.
"Daryl, wait!" Rick placed a hand on his shoulder. "It's Brandon's wife, Alissa." Daryl looked at Rick with shock, "Really?" Rick nodded, Daryl looked over at me and smiled.
"Then, let's get back than." Daryl hooped onto his bike and started up. Rick chuckled, "We have to wait for Shane, Glenn and the others." I ran over to Rick and grabbed his arm. "I have a question, do you happen to know what happened to my best friend Jessie, her husband Alex and their daughter Jamie?" I looked Rick in the eyes. "You worked with Alex too. Are they at the farm too?"
Rick smiled, nodded his head and opened his mouth to say something when a van, car and truck pulled up to the intersection.
As the vehicles stopped, the doors all opened and five people jumped out of them. Three women and two men.
"Hey Rick, do you think that this will be enough for a while?" Asked the eldest blonde haired woman who came out of the truck with a younger blonde, walked over to Rick and Daryl. Rick looked over at their truck full of chairs, buckets and a lot of other outside gear for camping. "It looks great Angela." He patted her on the shoulder.
A young man came running over from the car, "Rick, Maggie and I got a trunk full of medications, first aid kits, and antiseptics." The man bent over with his hands on his knees to catch his breath. The brown haired woman with him, walked over saying, "The back set is full of healthcare products, razors, hair ties and other stuff like that."
The man in the van can be seen walking over, "I got a whole bunch of canned goods, jarred goods, boxed goods and even some alcohol for us when the kids go to bed." I looked at him and Rick high five and hugged, I let out a gasp, "Shane?"
The tall man looks over at me, he almost falls to his knees in shock, "Omg?!" He looks at Rick. he runs over to me, picks me up and brings me a big bear hug. "You're alive. I can't believe it!" Shane laughs as he puts me down. "Barndon is going to be so happy to know that you are alive."
"Whos this?" The man from the car asked as I looked at Rick. "Let's head back. We don't have time to do introductions just yet. Shane, Daryl, lead Glenn, Maggie, Angela, and Beth back to the farm." Shane looked at Rick and then at me, "What about the two of you, how are you guys getting back?"
Rick smiled, "Well Alissa and I will find something." He nudged me in my side. "Right Alissa?" I look at Shane and then at Rick in confusion. "Lissa, do you know what's going on?" I just look at Rick and Shane, I shake my head.
Shane looks at Rick, "I will lead the troops back to the farm." He places a hand on my shoulder, "I promise that I won't let anyone let Brandon or Carrie know that you're alive until you and Rick get to the farm." He walks back to the van as the other five get back into the vehicles or on their bike.
Rick and I stood there in the middle of the four way intersection as we watched his crew drive out of site. I looked at Rick, "What's going on here Rick?" He looked at me and was about to say something when we hard something in the woods off of the side of the road.
The thing that made the noise came out of the woods and it was another person, but something was off about him, his clothes were all tattered, he looked malnourished, sick or drunk and he was walking right towards us.
"Stay here Alissa." Rick pulled a hammer out of one of his belt loops, "I will handle this." Before I could say anything, Rick was running at the person with the hammer raised. I screamed as I saw the hammer get plunged into the person's skull.
"What the hell Rick?" I ran over to him and the man lying on the ground, "Why did you do that?" I was about to get down and help the man when I saw that he was missing a huge piece of his right arm, there was a chunk missing from his face and neck and his skin looked rotten.
I recoiled from the sight of the body, "They're the Walking Dead!" I looked up at Rick as he offered me his hand. He helped me up to my feet, "Lets get looking for a ride back to the farm." Rick started to walk back down the street we came from. I followed close behind him.
