You got back to the Oasis. Vince was taken to the holding cells inside the air base.

Later that day, you had gotten word of what had transpired that day between the communities.

Unfortunately, the Kingdom had lost most of their fighters in an ambush at a Saviors outpost. Jerry, Carol, and Ezekiel were the only survivors to make it back to the settlement.

Rick and Daryl cleared out their outpost alongside Aaron's team. They also stopped the shipment of the MG Browning machine gun and ammunition to the Sanctuary. Rick was now on his way to meet with Jadis and the Scavengers to offer his ultimatum.

Jesus and Tara's team cleared out their outpost too, but ended up taking prisoners. You thought that taking Vince to the Hilltop to join other POWs would be a good idea. In the letter, Maggie had requested some supplies to help with their situation, and you obliged.

You went to the holding cells to inform Vince on your decision.

Vince: The Hilltop?

You: POWs are being held there. You're a prisoner. I'm taking a convoy out there anyway with some things, so you're coming too.

Vince simply nodded, and sat on the bench. He decided to go off topic for a bit.

Vince: Negan told us about you. How you're his nephew...

You: Why does that matter?

Vince: To show us how serious he is. In order to keep the Savior way alive, he won't put his blood relations or feelings at the forefront.

You shook your head.

You: Asshole.

Vince: The King...The Widow...The Kid...and Rick. Those are the people he told us needed to go down. The other three, he doesn't care if they get them alive or dead, but you...he wants you alive.

You rest your arm on the bars of the cell.

You: Me? Why?

Vince: In hopes of turning you to his side. To be a Savior. To help him lead them. If he can't turn you...then he'll just kill you.

You think about what Vince said. Negan wants to turn you, because he somewhat still cares about you. But you don't care, even if you accepted his terms, he's find a way to harm the people you care about.

You: Negan's right. He'll have to kill me. I'll die before I join him...that's if I don't kill him first.

Vince nods.

Vince: I hope you keep your word. I want to be free from that place...free along with Bonnie.

You assume that's the name of his girlfriend back at the Sanctuary.

You: We'll be on our way out tomorrow evening.

You turn around, and leave the room.

The next evening, you were helping Oasis soldiers pack some crates of supplies onto the cars. Clementine and Aasim were helping them along with you.

Wyatt walked over to inform you of something.

Wyatt: Christa's telling me that Rebecca isn't feeling well. She might need medical attention...for the baby's sake.

Rebecca was about to be due for her child's birth. The time was most likely now. The Oasis didn't have an obstetrician, but the Kingdom did.

You: If she needs assistance, then we have to act fast. If she's willing to ride in the convoy, I'll have somebody stop by the Kingdom and drop her off.

Wyatt: Yes, sir.

Wyatt runs off to tell Rebecca. Clementine was nearby and heard the conversation.

Clementine: Little Alvin Jr. is about to pop out?

Clementine has been close with Rebecca since you both first arrived at the Oasis. Alvin Jr., or AJ, was the name Rebecca told Clementine she wanted to give the baby.

You: Maybe. I don't think Ezekiel would mind if we stop by and have his doctor have a look.

Some time later,  the soldiers had finished packing the supplies into the vehicles, and it was time to move. Rebecca arrived and was ready to go as well.

Rebecca: Thank you, Y/N.

You gave a nod, and helped her into the van you were going to be in. Clementine, Russell, and an older soldier named Bobby accompanied you. Vince also was in the truck, hands tied and watched over by Russell.

Lee, Louis, and Aasim were by the vehicle as well.

Lee: Be safe, all of you.

You clasped his hand, and shook it, and it led into a hug.

You: We won't be long.

You did the same thing to Louis and Aasim, and bid them farewell. You then entered the van, and Bobby began to drive off, following the other vehicles.

••

Bobby continued to drive as you conversed with Rebecca and Clementine in the van. Russell chimed in when he wanted to, but kept his gun pointed at Vince.

Rebecca: I really hope it's a boy.

Clementine: And if it's a girl? What's going to be the name?

Rebecca: Never really gave it much thought. Alvin always believed it'd be a boy.

You: Besides, naming a girl AJ would be...unique.

Rebecca chuckled, then let out a cough.

Bobby: You okay, ma'am?

Rebecca nodded.

Rebecca: I'm fine. It's probably just a flu.

Russell: Either way, seeing a doctor at the Kingdom would be ideal. In case it has something to do with the baby.

Rebecca: That's what Wyatt said. Him and Christa have been so caring towards me these last couple weeks.

Clementine: Really?

Rebecca: Yeah.

She then gave a smirk.

Rebecca: You didn't hear this from me, but I think they're together. I know an item when I see it.

You gave a nod. You never really gave it much thought, but you did notice Wyatt and Christa being together more. Wyatt was close with her and Omid before he died, and he probably wants to be there for Christa and her child when the time comes.

You look out the window towards the cars in front of you. They suddenly stop.

Bobby: What the hell?

You assume the lead car ran into something on the road, but your train of thought was broken when gunfire sounded and bullets started flying towards the cars.

BRAKAKAKA!

BRAKAKAKA!

The windows of the van began to shatter. You were okay, but somebody in the van was hit...

...somebody was killed.
