StoreBrad - Catacombs
The second-in-command watched the man leave. Good riddance. He turned to his boss, who was pouring over the contents of the letter. Tyler had donned a look of annoyance after Eli had left, but whatever was in the letter was now making the man smiled. Brad felt a pang of irritation. "How much do they want this time?" he asked.
Tyler barely acknowledged him. "Triple."
"That's too much. After the last one, you said we would-"
"This one is pregnant, Brad, so I need you to shut your mouth." Tyler looked into the shorter man's eyes. It was intimidating and captivating all at once. "Can I trust you, Brad?"
Brad nodded profusely. He hated all of this, having to gather women for Tyler. What did Tyler need with women? They had everything they would ever need, right there in the hideout. All Tyler needed was his second-in-command, and his force of loyal men. Together, they could take the world by storm, none of this other bullshit required.
Still, Brad would do just about anything for this man.
Tyler smiled at him, a smile that warmed Brad. "Then take these papers and gather what they're asking for," Tyler said.
As if taking sacred documents, Brad grabbed the papers and hurried deeper into the catacombs.

Shannon - Auto Garage - OG Gang
Shannon reached out and caught the candy bar. She ogled it momentarily. "Well, thanks," she said. She walked over to James and handed it to him with a small smile. "Really." It was nice and all, but James needed a little more than a chocolate bar. He needed somewhere safe to be - somewhere where they could all be safe. Shannon wasn't sure where that was, but she knew what they did today was the first step toward reaching it. "James, how about I get you a bunch more chocolate? At the mall, we'll probably find all sorts. Whatever kind is your favorite." Shannon stood up and walked over to the stranger. "If you're serious about that deal, then I guess I'll change my mind." She held out a hand to shake on it. "I'm Shannon."

Tyler - Catacombs - Eli
A laugh escaped Tyler's lips. "Clean? Who would want to clean this dump?" Though his laugh grew more boisterous, Brad only stood to the side, his face a mask of stone. "Fucking hell, I said this last time. Like I could get the men to do that anyway!" Tyler smacked Brad in the back, who lurched forward a step. The second-in-command gave his boss an embarrassed smile.
Tyler waited for his bout of amusement to pass before he went to grab the paper's Eli was offering. He looked at them briefly, but a thorough read of the papers would have to wait until later. This one had better be better than the last one; It had taken her ages to get pregnant. Whatever they were asking for this time was probably far more than they deserved.
As Eli went to leave, Tyler waved him off mockingly. "Your wife is happy with her current station. I keep them all healthy and happy, you know this. It's mutually benefit for both me and her, after all." Tyler's grin waned slightly, and he realized he wanted rid of this man immediately. Always asking about his wife, which was really his wife no longer. It was a mockery to continue referring to her as such.
"And she'll continue to be happy as long our dealings keep going strong."
The Bull - Underground Arena - Floyd
Bull had been whooping and yelling the entire time. The other men had grown rambunctious listening to him, adding their own shouts. "Holy shit! Look at that! This guy's one hell of a hardass! No way, that one was fucking close!" When Floyd was the last fighter standing, the Bull began to clap. "Look at that, boys! That's how you goddamn do it!"
One of the doors was opened and Bull stepped inside the arena, flanked by two other raiders with rifles. They pointed their guns at Floyd, waiting to see if he attacked. Bull looked ecstatic as he walked over to the man. "Haven't seen a good show like that in some time now!" he said, clapping a big hand onto Floyd's shoulder. His eyes went down to the knife on the ground and he hastily went to pick it up. "Now, we have question for you... Lloyd? Floyd? Ahaha! ... Anyway, you gotta tell me, what kinda of things have you done to be here today? I mean, I just saw you rip through a couple of deadheads, you certainly have balls. What do you think it takes to survive?" Bull and the other men waited on Floyd's response.
Shannon - Auto Garage - OG Gang
Groaning, Shannon put a hand to her forehead. First Daniel had no interest in the mall, now he thought this guy - this stranger - made all the difference. "It's up to Amy, then, because I don't think bringing him is a good idea. I mean, the whole reason we're doing this is because we don't have enough for ourselves." She leaned backwards against the desk, her hands gripping the side. There was no way she was being unreasonable about this. They needed to start planning and this guy would only make things more complicated. She was being practical, because she had not just a kid to worry about, but a whole group of people. She realized it was that sort of reasoning which led her to shoot at innocent people yesterday, but she knew she couldn't back down.
Looking toward the stranger, Shannon said, "... I'm sorry."

I been wanting to know...why a mall? Resource hunting?
Yesss.
Tyler - Catacombs - Lynn & Eli
Tyler frowned at the proceedings before him. His men had presumed him too weak to take care of himself; he would rectify their behaviour later. "Get her back to a cell," Tyler ordered, walking up to the men. They hauled Lynn to her feet and held her arms. He grabbed the woman by her chin. "Just you wait, Lynn. Just you wait." With that, Tyler waved the men off.
On his way out of the arena, Brad and Bull informed Tyler of the new male prisoner, and of Eli's arrival. Tyler told Bull to deal with the prisoner in the usual manner and that he would meet with Eli right away. Taking Brad with him, Tyler headed for the catacomb's entrance.
"So good to see you," he said to Eli with a hint of sarcasm. They were at the catacomb's entrance, and Tyler waved for Eli to follow him. "Like usual, I'm going to need the details before I hand anything over." The leader of the raider's flashed Eli a smile; A smile which was strangely white compared to most of his men. He was cordial with Eli, most of the time. After all, the man supported his ideals, in a way. Tyler felt short-handed by the arrangement on some occasions, but he had to admit that Haywood was invaluable.
Bex - Emma's Cell - Emma
Bex felt as if his eyes would glaze over. This girl was trying to score sympathy and he begrudgingly had to admit it was working. Still, the poor girl was only going to succeed in making Bex's day worse. "Listen." he said, raising his voice slightly. "I can't help you, Emma, because life isn't fair, especially not these days. If you're going to get mad at anyone, get mad at whoever started this mess."
Bex was going to say more, but he was cut short by Bull walking in, followed by another pair of raiders and a beat-up Lynn. "Don't bother cleaning her up," Bull said. "Just put her in there." He pointed to a cell nearby Emma's and the two men threw Lynn inside. The Bull then gave Bex a jovial look before moving deeper into the cells.
"... Just don't fight back," Bex said, his back turned to Emma. "It'll be easier on you."
The Bull - Underground Arena - Floyd
Floyd was forced into the arena, much like Lynn minutes ago. This time, Bull stood where Tyler had once been. The big man had a smile plastered on his face; He was the arena's biggest fan. "Time to fight for your life, man! We're going to pop a few dead fuckers into the room with you, and you have to clean them up. Do well, and maybe we'll let you out." The Bull slammed a fist on the metal door and gave Floyd a thumbs up. "I'm rooting for you, honestly!"
Two other raiders opened one of container doors, letting a small horde inside the arena. They threw Floyd a knife before retreating behind metal doors. The arena now contained Floyd and a group of five walkers.
"At least you get a weapon!" Bull called out.
Shannon - Auto Garage - OG Gang
Shannon sighed in a frustrated manner and put her own weapon away. "I don't think we should give this guy anything, but-" She narrowed her eyes on the intruder. "We don't need any trouble. We don't want any trouble. " By her tone, it was an obvious threat.
Shannon then crossed her arms and looked toward Polyester. "Poly, we're only going to take a look. Besides, I need you hear for James." She moved to stand beside Amelia and waited for Daniel to deal with the intruder.

Bex - Emma's Cell - Emma
"That doesn't really answer my question," he said, his gaze expressionless.
Before Emma could respond, Smith and Chuck waltzed into the cells with a prisoner tied up between them. Bex gave a slight nod to the two men as they brought their prisoner further into the cells. The deepest cells were kept exclusively for male prisoners. As Bex waited for more prisoners to follow, it became readily apparent that Smith had only captured the one. It wasn't even a woman. Tyler probably wouldn't be happy.
"You should be happy Daniel isn't here," he said, turning back around to peer into Emma's cell. "Men don't tend to live once they come down here."

Also what so far has made Enrique into such a threat? And has he not shown respect to the woman with the rifle.
They're on edge, there's raiders about.

"Surrendered" riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
He lowered his hands and set the axe down.
Shannon - Auto Garage - Enrique/Amelia/Daniel/James/Polyester
Shannon folded the map and stuffed it into her backpack. She flashed James a reassuring smile before moving to follow Amelia outside. "Is it at least clear out today?" she began to ask, but Amelia suddenly pointing a gun behind Shannon cut her short. She raised her pistol as Amelia yelled at the man to put his weapon down. "James, Poly, get away from him," Shannon commanded.
When the man surrendered, Shannon kept her weapon trained on him, waiting for Amelia or Daniel to put away their weapon first. She was suddenly angry at this man, surprising them like he did. He was right about the gunfire drawing walkers on them; if it had came down to that, it would have been his fault entirely. "Sneaking in through the back door like that. You expect us to believe that's all you came for?"
