It didn't take long for Glenn, morals and Jackie to return back upstairs, me and rick had our guns pointed to the door as we watched a Walker hit the final pane of glass holding them back with a rock

"what you find down there" rick asked

"not a way out" morals breathlessly said

Rick glanced at me from the corner of his eyes as he slowly lowered his gun, I felt my insides turn as I relized we where back to where we started, and time was running out

"we need to find a way...soon" Andrea said

I turned and looked morals and Glenn over, and when my eyes met glenns he gulped

"guess it's time for plan B" he said, I took in a deep breath, and closed my eyes as I exhaled

"where running out of time, if where doing Somthing it needs to be done now" I said as I moved passed Jackie and began making my way back upstairs, the others following close behind me

Once we opened the door we where filled with questions fron merle, ones we all ignored as we again made it to the edge of the roof, rick picked up morals binoculars, and looked around to where I said the van was

"the construction sight, yeah they always have keys at hand" rick nodded, turning to me as I bit the inside of my cheek

"you have no way past the walkers Still" morals pointed out

"you got us out of that tank" rick said, I turned to Glenn as he stepped away from the edge

"ya but they where feeding, they where distracted" he said, clearly distressed from the situation, as we all where

"right, listen to him he's on to Something, a diverging, like on-

"god, give it a rest" Jackie then snapped, so I didn't quiet understand the last of merles sentence

I looked Merle over with my eyebrows frowned together... He did have a point

"maybe we throw the redneck over the roof, that'll distract them" I said, his eyes then met mine as he glared at me

"you know for a sexy bird your hell of a bitch" he spat, my nose flared as I clenched my jaw, my upper lip curled in disgust

"leave her alone" rick growled, he then turned away from the filth on the ground and looked at the group

"there drawn by sound right?" he asked "right." Jackie answered

"ya like dogs, they hear sound they come" Glenn said, not understanding what rick was getting at

"what else?" Rick said, trying to find out anything they know about these creatures as we knew so little

"they hear you, see you, smell you... They catch you they eat you" morals said pretty much putting what we needed to know in a short sentence

"they can devide us by smell?" I asked, glaring around the group

"cant you?" Glenn said loudly

"they smell dead, we don't.. It's pretty distinct" Andrea said, looking over to me

I stood stiffly, my eyes moving to rick once again, and as many times before we seemed to read each others minds

"so we need to smell like them" rick stated our idea allowed, the group looked at each other confused

"how?" Glenn asked innocently, I placed my hands on my hips and I looked to my shoes, slowly licking my dry lips

"we need to get one of them... Cut it up..." I said, squinting from the sun, seeing people's horror in realisation of what me and rick where planning
