We are all standing there looking at the gate when it opens a man With curly black hair looks at Aaron with worried face but before anyone can say anything somethingknocks over a trash can behind us everyone turned around drew their guns it was possum Daryl Shot it with Crossbow and said " We brought dinner" Aaron nodds and says "its okay come on in guys " the group and myself walk in and I look around it was a amazing site their was kids playing with a dog and Eldery sitting on their porches in Rocking gate closed and the black curly hair guy said " before we take this any further I need you all to hand over your weapons. if your staying you hand them over." I stepped up and said " we don't know if we wanna stay" Aaron turned to the black curly hair guy and said "its fine Nicholas" I then said " if we were gonna use them we would have started already" Aaron looked to Nicholas and said " let them talk to Deanna first" Abe Speak up first " Whos Deanna?" he said Aaron looked at all of us and said "She knows everything you'd wanna know about this place. Rick why don't you start ?" I looked back at my family I saw a walker coming towards the gate so I said "Sasha" Sheturned around and shot it in the head. I then looked back at Aaron abd said " Good thing were here". He then Said " Rick follow me I will take you to see Deanna" I noddedand handed Judy to Beth and Went with Aaron. We walked for a good 5 mintues until We came up to a house Aaron said "Go on in Deanna will be with you soon"
I was looking around the house when a heard a female voice " Hello I am Deanna Monroe" I Said " Rick Grimes" she then asks me " Did you mind if I flim this" I looked at her andsaid "What?" She then said " do you mind if I flim our talk ?" I said " Go ahead" She walked over to a video camara and turned it on I asked " why flim this?" She said " we'reabout transparency here" She then nodded towards a chair and said " please" she sat down on the couch and I sat down on the chair she then asked "How long have youbeen out there?" I said "Since the Begininng" She then Asked "how did you all find each other did you know each other before?" I simply answered "we didn't know each before" She then said " I was a congress person Ohio 15th District you ?" I said " I don't think it matters anymore" She then said "Oh I know it does" I asked her "What is this place?" she answered " this is the start of disdain ability that's what the brochures we found say this was planned community with own its solar grind ,cisters, ecobasesewage filtration starting in the low 800,000 if there is such a thing and they sold them all" She was laughing a little I asked her " How'd you end up here?" She said " Myfamily and I trying to get back to Ohio so I can help my district manage the crisis and Um The Army Stopped us on a back road and directed us here they were supposed tocome later they didn't but thier was supplies here and we made the best of it". I asked "you put up the wall?" she answered " well there was this huge shopping mall beingbuilt nearby and my husband Reg was a professor of architecture and who he was mattered quite a bit He got The first plates up with our sons and after a few weeks morepeople arrived and we had help we had a community." I then said " you've been behind these walls the entire time? she then said " We need people who have lived out there your group is the first we've even consider taking me in for a long time." I looked right at her said " you should keep your gates closed." she Asked "Why?" I then said "because it's all about survival now at any cost people out there are always looking for an angle they play on your weakness they measure you by whay they can take from youby how they can use you to live so bringing people into a place like this now" She cut me off and said " Are you telling me not to bring your people in or are you already looking after this place ?" We stared at each other for a few seconds then she said " Aaron said I can trust you" I said " Aaron doesn't know me I've killed people I Can't even tell you how many by now but I know why they're all dead so my family all those people out there can be alive and so I can be alive for them" she then said "Sounds like I'd wanna be apart of your family .Rick Northern Virginia was effectively evacuated millions of people gone for a long time there has hardly be anyone here living or dead but still we have lost people And I've done things" I looked at her and said " What have you done?" She said " I exiled three men who didn't work out we both know thats good as killing them" I got up and looked out the window and said " what do you want from us?" She got up aswell and said " these families should be able raise their children in a safe environment your son your daughter should have a place grow up what do I want you to help do to help us survive I know you can help us do that" I then said "how?" She said" I am exceptionally good at reading people If I didn't win re-election I was going to be professional poker player" I chuckled a little she then said " I'm not its 3:37 p.m. if your skeptical you have a right to be it's time to decide if your the one who's doing the deciding" I looked at my watch and turn the clock to 3:37p.m. and said " I was a Sheriff" She said " I knew something like that. Rick I would like you be our constable" I said" okay" and she said " lets get you settled in then."
We walked out and somone brought cart over and Deanna said " please put your Weapons on it they are still yours you check them out when ever you are going outside the wall but inside here we store them for safety" Everyone put there weapons on the cart. a lady with glasses laughed and grabbed the cart and said " I should have brought another bin" Aaron said "everyone follow me and I will show you your houses".
