STILL GOTTA MEAN SOMETHING









I was with Maggie, Rosita and Dianne. We were talking

"Listen.. what they did with their weapons, it was dirty. It was an extremely smart idea, I won't even lie.  Which is why, if they come back, we need to get them for good, this time" I said

"And how do we do that?" Rosita asked

"We poison our own weapons" I said. Maggie looked shocked

"That's extremely dangerous and how exactly will we do that?" Maggie asked

"I can make it myself" I said. Maggie shook her head

"Absolutely not" She said. I sighed

"Well, the relay cars are in position. If the Saviors are coming back, we'll have 10, maybe 15 minutes heads-up" Rosita said as Daryl walked in

"And our ammo?" Maggie asked

"'Bout what we thought. Not enough to fend off another attack of that size" Dianne said

"Which is why we sh-" I was cut off

"I already said no" Maggie

"Maybe we don't gotta worry about that no more. At least for now. Maybe going hand-to-hand's our only option" Daryl said

"You think they're low on ammo?" Rosita asked

"Well, they must've gone through a whole bunch of it getting through them walkers at Sanctuary" Daryl said

"And there's not a lot of places to find more" Dianne said

"Mierda. They have our bullet maker. They can make more" Rosita said

"You think the Saviors have what he'd need to make them?" Maggie asked

"If they don't, I know where they'd find it" Rosita said

"Then we head there" I said. Daryl nodded

"Let's go" He said. Me, him and Rosita walked out. We went outside to grab a car so we could drive to the place. I made sure to grab my mask. I saw Taylor, and I smiled and waved at her, but she only glared at Daryl. I looked at Daryl confused

"What the hell did you do to piss off Taylor?" I asked. Daryl looked over to the glaring Taylor

"She's still pissed?" Daryl asked annoyed

"Clearly" I said as we made it to the car. Rosita got in the driver's seat. I got in the passenger's seat and Daryl got in the back. I put on my mask as we left Hilltop. Rosita drove. A CD playing music. A different song had come on. I instantly recognized the song. Me and Rosita looked at each other with grins on our faces. I turned up the radio as the music played

"The fuck you turning this up for? Y'all are just like Rick" Daryl said annoyed

"She's into superstitions
Black cats and voodoo dolls
I feel a premonition
That girl's gonna make me fall" Me and Rosita sang with grins

"Turn this shit off!" Daryl yelled. Me and Rosita ignored him as we jammed out

"She's into new sensations
New kicks in the candlelight
She's got a new addiction
For every day and night" We sang. We could hear Daryl groaning in annoyance in the back

"Upside, inside out
She's livin' la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin's the color mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!
She's livin' la vida loca" We sang as we both danced along to the music

"I should've stayed home" Daryl said

"Don't be such a pessimist. This is good music" I said

"Good music my ass" He said. I flipped him off with a grin. He rolled his eyes

"Woke up in New York City
In a funky cheap hotel
She took my heart, and she took my money
She must've slipped me a sleeping pill" Me and Rosita sang

"She never drinks the water and
Makes you order French champagne
Once you've had a taste of her
You'll never be the same
Yeah, she'll make you go insane
Come on!" We sang. I looked at the mirror to see Daryl smiling

"Upside, inside out
She's livin' la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin's the color mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!
Livin' la vida loca
She's livin' la vida loca" We sang. The trees flew past us as Rosita slammed on the gas

"She'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain
She'll make you live her crazy, but she'll take away your pain
Like a bullet to your brain
Come on!" We sang. I pretended I was holding a mic as I sang

"Upside, inside out
She's livin' la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin's the color mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!" We sang

"When does this song end?!" Daryl yelled

"Upside, inside out
She's livin' la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Her lips are devil read
And her skin's the color mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!
Livin' la vida loca
Come on!
She's livin' la vida loca" We sang. Me and Rosita looked at each other with huge grins

"Come on!
Gotta la vida loca!
Gotta, gotta, gotta la vida loca!
Gotta, gotta, gotta la vi" We sang. The song then ended. Me and Rosita laughed

"Thank God it's over. Y'all are terrible singers" Daryl said

"Do you hear something?" I asked Rosita. She shook her head

"I didn't hear anything" She said

—————

Daryl was looking through binoculars as we stalked the place Rosita mentioned earlier

"Well, looks like you're right. It's up and runnin'" Daryl said as he handed Rosita the binoculars. She looked through them

"Yep. Buckets of casings for Eugene to turn into hundreds of bullets" Rosita said

"Let's do it now" I said

"We don't take out the machines. We take out the man" Rosita said. Me and Daryl nodded
