AJ WAS ON watch with Carl, calmly looking through binoculars at their perimeter.
"Psst!" The Whiting boy alerted both Carl and a nearby Maggie. "There's something weird out there." Maggie nodded, holding her rifle up and looking through the scope.
In slight shock, the Greene woman lowered the gun. She took a shuddered breath and glanced back at the expecting boys.
"Andrea." She whispered hoarsely. "Get your dads and the others."
Carl and AJ were quick to obey, placing their guns down before running into the prison.
"Dad!" Carl yelled out as they got within earshot of the cell block. "Dad, come quick!"
Rick fumbled for his gun quickly. "What? What is it?"
"It's Andrea! She's walking up now!" AJ panted, sliding to a stop.
Daryl scoffed, grabbing his crossbow and jumping to his feet. "She's just walkin' up?"

"What?" Andrea scoffed loudly, obeying either way.
"Turn around, now!" Ellie shouted, pushing the woman onto the fence and patting her down.
When she was sure she'd gotten all the weapons from her person, the brunette backed away and nodded to the leader.
