At dawn, Zayla, Daryl, Michonne, Glenn, Maggie and Rick piled into their only red mini van and followed Merle's map to Woodbury about 23 miles away from the Prison. They arrived at the rear of the town and found the cut wires on the gates, unfurling the gate to sneak inside. It seemed as though all the citizens were in their homes sleeping and only early morning watch was out, so Zayla, Daryl and Michonne went around silently shooting or slicing at the six people on guard while Maggie, Glenn and Rick were moving as a squad to the building housing the Governor.
"Go get him, we got this." Zayla told Rick and Daryl; both men nodded before entering the building.
The Governor was in the room with two soldiers and with the element of surprise on their side, Rick and Daryl shot the two armed men down. Philip was quick to overturn one of the tables and use it as cover as he shot his pistol at the men as they did the same, flipping over two desks to use as cover. They fired at each other until they were all out of bullets, then tossed their guns aside as knives were pulled. Rick emerged first and went charging for the Governor, but the other man caught Rick and tackled him to the ground. Before he could throw a punch, Daryl came running over and kicked him off Rick. The Governor got to his feet and dodged three of Daryl's attempts to slash at him, but the fourth managed to slice his shirt. Philip threw a punch and got Daryl in the face, but Daryl ducked the second swing and threw a punch of his own, getting the brunet man in the face. It was Rick's turn to tackle the Governor to the ground and he got three punches in before Philip blocked the rest of his punches with his arms. Philip rolled them over and managed to punch Rick twice before Daryl pulled him off and was kicking at the man on the ground until Philip spit out a wad of blood. The Governor grabbed Daryl's leg and managed to pull him down, but Rick jumped on his back as he got to his feet. Rick had Philip in a chokehold and the Governor was clawing at Rick's arms to no avail, then he ran backward to slam Rick into the wall twice, breaking Rick's hold. Rick didn't give Philip time to recover as he sent three punches to the man's face and the fourth one knocked him to the ground, bleeding.
The Governor coughed up blood and Daryl kicked him in the gut, making him roll onto his side. He grabbed the brunet by his shirt and pulled him up, holding his hands behind his back so he couldn't escape. Rick retrieved his discarded knife from the ground and walked over to the bound man. He sneered at the Governor before dragging his knife across Philip's throat, his face being coated in a splatter of blood. Daryl released the Governor and he watched with Rick as the man fell to his knees, his hands around his throat as he gurgled and choked on his own blood. He fell to the ground and continued choking on his own blood for another two minutes, then his body went limp as he died. Daryl went over and nudged the man with his foot to ensure he was dead, then he sunk his knife into his head to prevent the man from reanimating.
Daryl and Rick each grabbed one of the Governor's arms and dragged his corpse outside. The fighting was still going on, but all fire ceased when the men approached with the Governor's body.
"This is over!" Rick declared as Philip's body dropped to the ground. "We don't want a war with you people! With the Governor gone, we can live in peace as neighbors!"
The remaining soldiers looked at one another as they decided what to do, but Martinez was among them and he came to meet the men. He put his rifle down and the others followed suit. He held his hand out and Rick took it, shaking it.
The moment of peace was interrupted by Michonne screaming for help and the group followed the sound to find her in some sort of secret chamber where a bleeding Andrea was on the ground with a chunk of her neck missing and bloody. Milton was in the room as well, but he had already reanimated and was put down by a pair of pliers into his eye. Michonne was crying as she put pressure on Andrea's neck wound, but they all knew what had to happen next.
Zayla took a spot next to Michonne and Andrea weakly smiled at the ginger; she took Andrea's hand. "What…not gonna call me a dumb blonde…for getting bit?"
"You went to law school. You were never dumb."
"Judith, Carl…the rest of them…they're alive?"
"We're all okay."
"At least…I get to see Amy again." She smiled. "I can do it myself."
"You don't have to." Michonne sadly argued, but Andrea gently shook her head.
"I have to…while I still can…please?" Again, Michonne shook her head, but Zayla pulled one of her pistols out and gave it to the blonde, wrapping her fingers around it. "I remember…how the safety works."
"You better, blondie."
"Take care of Michonne for me…she doesn't need to be alone again."
"I'm right here." Michonne said as Zayla put an arm around the samurai woman, tears streaming from both their eyes.
"And we're not going anywhere." Zayla added.
With a final smile, Andrea slowly raised the gun under her chin and took in a deep breath, sighing. Seconds later, the gun went off and Michonne put her head down as she sobbed into Zayla's lap. The ginger was trying to keep herself from falling apart, but she quietly cried with Michonne as Andrea's body went totally limp against the wall.
