WHEN THE DEAD COME KNOCKING

I ran over along with the others to see the woman. She was covered in blood but it didn't look like it was hers. Her face cringed slightly and she moved her hand to thigh. The walkers noticed and she backed up with her messed up leg. Pulling out her katana as they came towards her. She killed a walker. My parents always told me to never trust strangers blindly growing up, yet my gut told me that she wasn't a bad person

"Should we help her?" Carl asked

"I'm going out there to help her whether you like it or not, Rick" I said. Rick walked off. I pulled out my silenced gun as the woman killed another walker. She then fell to the ground. Two walkers were about to eat her when me and Carl shot them. Rick ran back

"Carl!" Rick said as Carl tossed him the keys

"Shit" Rick muttered as more walkers came. He quickly opened the gate. I pulled out my tomahawk and began killing walkers

"I'll cover you" I said. He nodded. Gunshots went off. Rick then went to check on her as all the walkers in the immediate vicinity were dead

"Is she bit?" Hershel asked. Rick checked and then turned to him

"Gunshot" Rick said. He then picked the woman up. We all ran back to the gate. I locked the gate behind us. Rick ran to the cell block. I ran behind them as I caught up. We went inside

"Carl, get a blanket. Beth, water and a towel" Rick said as the mysterious woman was limping on her own two feet with Rick's help

"All right" Beth said as she handed me the baby. I held her in my arms as Beth ran off. She began crying from waking up. I rocked her in my arms as I shushed her

"Here?" Carl asked as he placed down blankets

"She's not coming in the cell blocks. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Steady now" Rick said as he let her down to the ground. Beth came back with a water bottle and a towel. Rick then poured water onto her neck to wake her up a little more. Her eyes fluttering

"It's all right. It's all right. Hey, hey, look at me. Look at me. Who are you? Hey, it's all right. Hey. Look. Hey. No. We're not going to hurt you unless you try something stupid first, all right?" Rick asked. I felt a hand on my shoulder briefly

"Rick" Daryl said as he put his hand back down and walked in. Rick turned

"Who the hell is this?" Daryl asked

"You wanna tell us your name? You wanna tell us your name?" Rick asked as she sat up and stared at him

"Y'all come on in here" Daryl said

"Everything all right?" Rick asked as he stood up

"You're gonna wanna see this" Daryl said

"Go ahead. Carl, get the bag" Rick said. I walked into the cell block. I turned and waited for Rick as I held the baby that had fallen back to sleep
