The Edge of the Storm

Merle finally got out of the shower and we were now headed back to the Prison. “So maybe coming all this way for a shower wasn’t a bad Idea” Merle chimed. “I see it put you in a good mood” Daryl said while keeping an eye out. He stopped walking and turned to look towards a yard “wait here” He ordered “but” I started taking a step “wait here” He added again looking back at me before jogging over to the yard. I sighed, and glanced back at Merle, I might have understood him a bit more but I still did not like being alone with him.

With Daryl

Daryl was treading lightly as he hopped the fence into a yard of the one of the houses. He could faintly hear the sound of something pulling at a chain. With his Bow ready he aimed it at a shed. Scratching noises came from within it. Daryl hesitated a moment before kicking the door in. something shuffled and backed into the darkness to hide. Low snarling was a bad sign. Daryl raised his bow and was ready to kill but whatever it was never came for him. He lowered his bow looking around to make sure nothing was going to sneak up on him he stepped inside the shed.

Returning to Merle & Bree

It had been a while and I was starting to get nervous, He hid it well but Merle was too. “I’m going to go check on him” I sighed walking off I stopped as Daryl opened the gate to the yard, He was grinning triumphantly “Look!” He called pulling behind him a thin and afraid Pit Bull. “Found her in the shed. Thought I heard something back there” He added when he got close I dropped down to the dogs level and held out my hand slowly for her to sniff it “It’s ok girl” I said her pink nose sniffed my hand and her tail began to wag. “Good girl!” I praised petting her head her tail wagged more her whole rear was wagging now. I laughed “she’s adorable” I said standing up “figure we’ll keep her. I mean seeing as your other ones…” Daryl started I nodded. “Thank you”.

Back at the prison I stood bouncing Judith lightly while I feed her the formula. A smiled would not leave my face when I held her. The Pit Bill whom Daryl had named killer watched me as she rested with a full belly. It felt like heaven, maybe it was the mother in me, to be holding a baby again. I patted Judith’s back to burp her. “You look good with a baby” Carol said coming down the stairs. “I thought everyone was outside?” I asked. She smiled and looked up to her cell mischievously “not everyone” she said with a giddy giggle. I looked her over she looked like she had been in a wrestling match. “Oh dear lord!” I gasped she laughed more “I’m not made at ya….get you yours Momma Carol, get you yours” I laughed. “He’s sleeping now so funs over” Carol sighed sitting down at the table. I sat down along with her and frowned. “Do you think ricks doing the right thing…meeting with the Governor tomorrow…” I asked her after a moment of silence. Carol sat up straight “I suppose…but then what other choice do we have…we have to figure this guy out. I’m sure Rick knows what he is doing” Carol reasoned. I nodded my head and sighed. Judith finally burped and this caused me to smile.

Beth came back inside the Cellblock and relieved me form baby duty, not that I was bothered at all. I looked up as Daryl entered in. “where were you?” I asked arching an eyebrow “having a chat with my brother” Daryl said, his eyes looked serious “what about?” I asked following Daryl up to our cell. “About you, about us…the terms of him staying here.” Daryl said sitting down on the bunk, he gathered the things he needed to fashion for arrows. “And?” I asked sitting on the floor next to the bunk looking up at him. “And he ain’t happy about it, but to hell with that” Daryl grumbled “He’ll get used to it, there ain’t no other way, this is gotta work” Daryl added. I kept quiet but rested a hand on his leg “Merle’s not that stupid….and he won’t risk getting separated from you again.” I stated “hell I’ll hog tie him here if he acts out just so he can stay” I muttered. Daryl looked down at me he managed to keep a straight face but his eyes were definitely surprised. “No I don’t like him, But I get it now, and I’ll be damn if you leave again” I said getting to my feet I walked to the door way and stopped “that’s not an option” I added strolling out.

I had to find Merle, I had to bite back bitterness and pride and have an actual talk with him. He wasn’t a friend of mine but he was Daryl’s brother and as long as that was a fact, He had me on his side. “Where’s Merle?” I asked as I spotted Hershel and Pliny in the common room. “Out in the courtyard” Hershel replied “what are you going to do?” Pliny asked, but I kept walking.

The sun was setting but it was still bright the landscape painted in a light orange, however it wasn’t a pleasant orange, it held a hellish glow. Merle was stabbing walkers, I took in a deep breath before approaching him. “Merle!” I called out He never turn around, He stabbed another walker through the gate. “Merle!” I called again “what!” merle barked in annoyance. I tried to remain calm when all I wanted to do was slap him. “Merle I wanna talk” I stated, He finally stopped “what do I get another Lecture” Merle barked some more I leered at him. “Listen for a minute ya rat bastard would you!” I yelled. “I don’t like you much either…lets understand that right now.” I said calming down again, looking at him with dull eyes. “But I came to thank you” I added Merle stood up straight and looked surprised “really?” he said in a sing a song tone “what for?” Looking off to the side I bit back any Pride I had left “For making Daryl the man he is, you’re a crazy bastard, but somehow you managed to keep him safe from his father, from the walkers, you taught him everything that’s made him so important to all of us.” I added with a heavy sigh “not all of its good but most of it…most of it is” I turned my back to him “for that I’ll do everything in my power to make sure you stay here…He still feels he needs you.” Merle walked away from the gate a bit “just know this…I won’t stand by and watch you treat Daryl like he’s some kid…He’s not a kid anymore and he’s finally spreading his wings a bit. Hinder him and we’ll have an issue…” I looked back at him “I expect you to treat him with as much respect as he has always given to you.” With that I walked off back into the prison.

I was sitting in the middle of the floor playing with Killer, we had managed to find her a stick to play with. Rick Carl and Michonne entered the common room behind Glen and Maggie. “Ah cool!” Carl called running to Killer petting her she rolled onto her belly to receive a belly rub. Rick smile and so did I, it was the first time in a long time Carl acted like the kid he really was. “Daryl, Hershel, you should get some rest, I’m taking you with me tomorrow” Rick ordered. I looked up at Rick, I just got Daryl back I wasn’t letting him out of my sight “uh you too Bree and bring that dog…it looks fierce enough” Rick added “No, hell no, I don’t want’er out there with that wack job!” Daryl called “Oh shut up and go to bed” I sighed getting to my feet I went to head up the stairs. I went to our cell and laid down on the bunk it wasn’t long before Daryl lay next to me. “You shouldn’t go, we don’t know what’s going to happen” Daryl said in a hushed voice “that exactly why I’m going” I reasoned “you’re in no shape. You ain’t ate nothing for days, you look like a bag of bones you back’s lashed up, you wrists got rope burn…your shoulders still healing from being shot up” Daryl went on “I get it I’m fucked up” I muttered “but I’m still useful and I am going” I said. Daryl sighed and turned over his back facing me “stubborn ass” he muttered “Love you too” I yawned.

The next morning I awoke to Killer jumping on us “ow! Come on damn dog!” Daryl grunted pushing her off carefully I laughed loudly “come on she’s right we gotta get ready” I said groggily. I strapped on my throwing knives so that they were hidden from view and grabbed my riffle. I grabbed the chain Daryl had saved to use as Killer’s leash and hooked it to her collar. “You ready?” Daryl asked I nodded “yeah lets go I bet rick and Hershel are already down by the car.” I said Daryl stepped to the side to let me walk ahead of him. Down in the Common room Carol fidgeted nervously “you be careful” she muttered hugging me tightly “I’ll be fine” She turned to Daryl and went to speak “I’ve got her, don’t worry” Daryl assure her Carol smiled and Pliny rested a hand on her shoulder. “Trust him it’s in his eyes” He added nodding at Daryl “you watch her” Daryl said to him Pliny nodded again.

It was almost hard to breath as we rode to the barn were we were going to meet the Governor, I didn’t know what was going to happened, we didn’t know how many men he had. I gripped onto Daryl tightly as we rode along on his bike, I hated and yet I love it the purr of the engine was so soothing. Daryl must have felt me tense “are you alright?” He asked me, I nodded my head against his back and sighed my nerves began to relax and then the car stopped. We were here and my nerves were back. Daryl parked and dismounted his bike, I followed. Rick got out the car and with guns drawn we ran around the hay mills as swift as we could afford making sure the way was clear. Daryl was our point man he had his bow pointing at all angles I took the rear watching the road behind us Rick safely in the middle. Suddenly Daryl gave the signal for us to halt, and then pointed “rick and I glanced at one another before stepping out a bit further to see, he was pointing to the Barn house, he had found it. We ran like ghosts across the field to the barn house, We stopped at the site of a dead walker laying in the grass. Daryl checked to make sure it was really dead, Rick pointed telling us to go check out the south end of the Barn house and sheds. We didn’t argue. Going around the back we saw the Governor talking with Rick in the Barn. Daryl hushed me and we continued on.

Daryl and I had scanned the place, and all seemed secure. We headed back to Hershel in the car. “He was already in there…He sat down with rick” Daryl reported Hershel looked around “I don’t see any cars” He spoke slow and his eyes darted in every direction. “I know…it don’t feel right” Daryl replied shifting his weight form one foot to the other. I turned to look back at the Barn. Daryl glanced back at me “Keep it running” he muttered to Hershel, Daryl hit the roof of the car with the palm of his hand, I nearly jumped out of my skin “Heads up!” He called hearing the engine of a car. I lifted my Riffle and pointed it at the dusty champagne SUV. Daryl stood in front of our car at a bit of a distance from him, while Hershel went to get out of the ran I ran to Daryl side, we both lifted our weapons and watched the SUV pull to a stop just a few steps away from us. Daryl slowly walked around to the driver’s side of the door. His bow at eye level I trailed behind him taking aim at the second man who exited the car while Daryl has his eyes locked on the first. “The hell why is your boy already in there” Daryl called in a dry tone as a third person got out, Glancing over I noticed it was none other than Andrea. I smirked a bit he was getting sharper by the day. Andrea looked around as if confused “he’s here?” she asked looking over to the Latin man whom looked to be the leader of the three of them. “Yep” he said with a smirk Andrea rolled her eyes and huffed in frustration before going into the barn house.

The Latin man puckered his lips at me making silent kissy sounds. Daryl leered at him even harder. The meeker looking man was writing something down on a piece of paper on the hood of the SUV. Hershel and Daryl were locked in a stare down with the Latin man. I shifted a bit under his gaze, it had been a long time since I had seen a man outside of those in our group. Daryl lowered his bow but not his guard as he walked in front of me and Hershel. “Maybe I should go inside” Hershel finally spoke, “The governor thought it best if he talked with Rick in private” The meek man stated quickly in the most uninterested voice he could muster barely looking away from his paper. I leered at him Daryl tilted his head a bit “who the hell are you?” He asked and much ot my surprise it came out very passive, however there was the fact that this man looked like he wouldn’t hurt a fly. So why was he with someone like the Governor? “Milton Mamet” the man answered looking up briefly before going back to his work.

“Great he brought his butler” Daryl mused I laughed inwardly and it showed in my eyes. The Latin man chuckled a bit as well. Maybe after the other day I was an overheated mess, but he wasn’t have bad looking when a smile came to his face. I tried to tell myself if we just from the lack of options recently but I wouldn’t give up Daryl for a world of them. “I’m his advisor” Milton corrected once again never looking up. “What kind of advice?” Daryl asked turning back to face them. Milton sighed and looked up but he did not look at Daryl “Planning bitter…I’m sorry I don’t feel like explaining myself to the henchmen” Milton shot with dry sarcasm. “Hey watch your mouth sunshine” Daryl said a cocky smirk coming to his face as he strolled closer to the Governors men. “Daryl” I whispered reaching out to grab his sleeve but he didn’t take his eyes off of the two. “Listen if you and I are going to be out here pointing guns at each other all day” The Latin man spoke with an annoyed smile he looked over to me and let his eyes trail my body before turning his eyes back to Daryl “do me a favor…shut your mouth” He ordered. Daryl glared at him grinding his teeth together Daryl walked over to him he didn’t look calm he was trying to but he was steaming by now. “Daryl” I called again but got the same reaction as before, I glanced back nervously at Hershel. Daryl circled him a bit and go tin his face The Latin man smirked at Daryl and looked at him as if sizing him up. “We don’t have time for this” Hershel called out. The two men never took their eyes off of one another, locked on like targets ready to fire, looking something like snarling wolves. “We’ll be at each other’s throats soon enough!” Hershel called. They refused to part “Daryl” I called out louder this time the Lain man sized Daryl up once more “please” I added Daryl looked at the man as if saying he wasn’t done with him but slowly he went to return to Hershel and I. I held out my hand for him to grab yet instead her snaked one around my hips and back pulling me closer to him keeping me under his arm and near his chest. He took another look back at the Latin man who smirked smugly. It must have been a while since he had seen a woman from outside of his group as well.

“I want you to get in the car” Daryl whispered into my ear her back turned to the Governor’s men I glanced past him to see the men. “I can handle myself, the guys surely not stupid I won’t try anything or nothing like that” I whispered back “yeah well” Daryl looked back at them and nearly snarled at the way the man was staring “I don’t care to much for the way his looking at you…..like a damn dog wanting a piece of meat” Daryl muttered “would you feel better if I got Killer out of the car?” I asked Daryl grumbled “not really but go ahead” he sighed I nodded and went to our car. Killer was grateful to get to stretch out her legs but she showed no sign of happiness as she spotted Milton and the other man. Her head hung near to the ground and she began to growl slightly. Killer was a thick pit her face was wide and her body very stock pure muscle under auburn fur. The chain used for a leash didn’t make the site much less intimidating. Daryl smirked at Killer as we both returned to his side. “Nice pooch” The man commented unfazed however Milton eyed her warily.

Andrea Exited the barn and looked around at us quietly “that ain’t good” I muttered to Daryl, he nodded as we all watch her to take a seat near the barn. A few more minutes passed, Daryl passed now some small distances, he blow out of puff of air trying to relax. “there’s no reason not to use this time we have together to explore the issues ourselves” Milton chimed in, I watched in uninterested, did we really look like the type of people who wanted to talk at this point I mean that was the whole reason we were out here and not in the barn. “I saw they sit tight and you shut up” the other man spat. “What are you the Governor?” Daryl shot at him, he turned to Daryl darkly highly annoyed. If they’re sitting down, especially after what happened their going to try and work things out, no one wants another battle” Milton added, Daryl looked back at me and then took a step forward his bow slung onto his back “is that what you call it, I wouldn’t call it a Battle” Daryl stated “I would call it a battle, that that’s what I was, I recorded it” Milton said holding up a paper “For what?” Daryl asked “to keep a record of what we’ve been through, it’ll be a part of our history” Milton reasoned “that makes since” Hershel said speaking up A glimmer of hope came into Milton’s eyes “I’ve got dozens of interviews” he said unfolding the paper heading over to Hershel. Daryl, the other man, and I looked up as a walker cackled in the distance. Daryl grabbed his bow off his back and headed for the sound I quickly went after him glancing at the other guy as he reached for something gin his car. Briefly I saw Andrea stand up and gripped her knife. “About time we’ve had something to do” I muttered from behind Daryl he gave me a tiny smile as he looked back at me for a split second.

We walked around to the hay towers, two walkers were hobbling along they seemed to come alive at the sight of their prey. Daryl lowered his Bow as he notice the man next to him “after you” he said in a mocking way, I rolled my eyes. “How nice, you first” he replied gesturing his bat to the walkers. Andrea sighed and pushed past them Stabbing the male walker between the eyes, I shook my head, she thought she was so bad ass, I chuckled a bit four 3 more hobbled up. He Man looked at Daryl swinging his bat around “fine…Pussy” He said Daryl watched him with malice with Ill will as he walked off. The man bashed the female walkers head against the tower it shattered into a shower of tainted blood and mushed brains like a rotted pumpkin. He then looked back at Daryl with a grin on his face he looked like he was having a blast. Daryl rushed past him Bow raised and shot a Male walker in the head, it was a clean and perfect shot between the eye brows. He looked over to his new found Rival with a straight face. I shook my head and looked down at Killer who was tugging at her chain barking and snarling I smirked “go!” I called letting go of her chain, she tore off running between the two men. She pushed her large body off of the ground and pounced the walker making him down. I aimed my Riffle and took the shot while she had him by the arm. It fell limp and Killer returned to me. “Good girl, no training needed” Daryl said proudly down to the dog as I walked to stand between him and the other man. “Nice” He commented I nodded there were now three more left as two more walked up. The Latin man bashed the face off of one and two more remained. He and Daryl glanced at one another and then at me. The Latin man twirled his bat again and made his way to them. However Daryl was quicker and fired an arrow at the two walkers. He had hopped his arrow would pierce through the brains of both walkers but his aim was slightly off in his rushing and only lodge in the second walkers neck after going clean through the first eyeball. The Latin man went to take the second one out spinning the bat around in ways far more tactical and fancy then before, it was obvious I wasn’t going to get another kill but I was still going to have some fun I looked up at Daryl and simpered “guys good with his hands” I spoke smoothly as if I was mildly impressed. Daryl looked down at me and reached for his knife he grasped it firmly holding it up he took arm drawing back his arm he threw it with great force it spun once and then lodged itself in the walkers head just as the man went to bash it’s face in the walker fell to the ground dead. I chuckled as Daryl looked down at me triumphantly, the man looked back at him with his mouth hanging open, Daryl looked up at him he took one last glance at the walker before heading back to the two of us. Apparently Andrea had walked off while the two were having their duel. Daryl gave a small short nod to him and rested his mar across my shoulders I looked up at him and then to the man, it would seem they now had some sort of understand. “Men are strange beasts” I muttered Daryl huffed in amusement and looked down at me “there’s only one beast here” he said with much ego. I rolled my eyes and Killer snorted.

I sat on the ground petting and praising Killer and Daryl rummaged the walker’s cloths looking for anything that would be useful it was a tactic we had recently started doing amongst the group. “Look what he’s got” Daryl called showing us a nearly empty pack of cigarettes. Daryl pulled one out and popped it in his mouth before holding out the pack to the other man whose name we still did not have. “Ah I only smoke Menthols” he said coolly rolled my eyes like it mattered in this day in age? “Dooshbag” Daryl muttered sticking the pack in his rear pants pocket. Daryl pulled out a lighter and lit the cig, he took a long drag from it and blew out of the smoke. For a moment looking like he had a little piece of heaven, I however knew it would be hell later when those other three were gone and he was having a nic-fit. But I wasn’t mad at him I didn’t smoke such things, but Russell and I were known for sharing in a blunt every now and then, and now I would kill for a hit of Bud. Daryl put his liter away and took another puff “you army or somethin ?” he asked him. “nah I just..just hate these things” The man replied looking down at his bat. “Yeah after what they did” He added Daryl watched him “wife, Kids” The added Daryl nodded “that sucks” He said simply I looked down at my hands and swallowed down hard. Killer whined and licked my hands feeling my change in mood. “Thanks” the man muttered.

He looked over to me as I watched them stand quietly he nodded in my direction “so you and your girl, how long have you been together?” He asked Daryl gave a short chuckle and flicked the ashes off of his cig, turning his eyes to me “I donno 4 years maybe almost five.” He said my heart skipped a beat at the way he looked at me. His eyes were so low and so tender I lost my breath and found myself gazing at him while Killer tried to get me to play. “Really?” the man asked “yeah off an’ on but still” Daryl said blowing out smoke. “Keep her safe, I can see it just by looking at you” The man muttered “see what” Daryl asked never taking his eyes off of me “that’s your heart sitting over there” The man added. He and Daryl looked at one another for a long time in a moment of Silence.

Killer had finally worn herself out she now laid in the grass peacefully, I walked over to Daryl and tucked myself under his arms, resting my head on his chest and watching the cigarette smoke leave his lips. Daryl rested his free hand on my head rummaging his fingers through my hair I grimaces at the feeling of his fingers lacing into my thick “nappy” roots I hadn’t combed my hair is weeks. “This is joke” the man muttered getting our attention. “They aren’t going to work anything out in there, they’ll do their little dance in there and then tomorrow…the next day they they’ll give the word” He said darkly. “I know” Daryl Spoke up, the man looked at Daryl’s Cigarettes “here” Daryl offered again “hey” I called out to the man “you never gave us your name” Daryl looked down at me and then to him “that’s right” He added “Caesar” He said simply Daryl nodded “names Bree Raquel…two first names” I stated tiredly for some reason It felt as if my energy was being sucked right out of me. “Daryl” Daryl replied before turning his attention to me almost as if he could feel it leaving me too. “You alright?” he asked, I nodded a hummed some form of the word yes but I wasn’t sure. Daryl, Caesar and I returned to Andrea, Hershel and Milton. As we did so the Governor slid open the giant barn door and walked out. I cowered a bit behind Daryl against my own will, He smirked at me in a shady way, this cause Daryl to be on high alert, He wanted to say to something but I gripped the sides of his shirt and pulled his back closer to me whispering “no” and he held his tongue but remained tense.

Rick followed soon after the Governor, the air was very tense, each of us by standards glanced at one another we did not know what was to come or if we should even bother with goodbyes. The Governor got in the SVU and Caesar followed after him. Rick then got into our little Silver car, Daryl grabbed my hand and lead behind him,He mounted his bike and I got on after him. I watch as Andrea watched us she looked as if she didn’t know what to do. I had no doubt in my mind that she know knew her “Philip” was crazy, I knew she was probably missing the friends she had turned her back on. But I also knew she was to afraid, sanctimonious, and to messiah complexed to leave Woodbury and let this alone and thus I felt little pity for her. It just made me mad, if she was really our friends she would have left a long time ago, I’d come to the conclusion that she’s be her own death, and that she was never coming back. She gazed over us all for a moment before getting into the SUV. Hershel sighed and got in the car. Daryl having seen enough fired up the motor and led us out. I hugged his waste tightly and hide my face in his back. It was obvious things did not go well, and yes I was afraid, the Governor was insane that was crystal clear, and we had no true idea about how many men he really had what really lied in that city. As we passed the Governors car Daryl didn’t even blink, like he wasn’t even there, but when the Governor locked eyes with me, it felt like a lake of fire was burning at my soul, I felt like I was looking into the face of death and yet it was only one man. “don’t look at him” Daryl ordered I quickly listened hiding my face back in his vest, I closed my eyes and it was like I could feel the stinging of a whip on my back “He did it I know he did” I muttered in spite of myself. It didn’t take long for Daryl to understand He tense and sighed rigidly “don’t worry, that bastard won’t live to touch you again” He grumbled gripping the bars tighter. I nodded and nuzzled my face into his back more.

Daryl’s Bike roared loudly as we finally got into view of the prison, I was just glad to see the rusted old gates, I wanted nothing more than to run into Carols arms, be hugged and feel safe, never have I felt so small like a little lost child in a mall, the world seemed so huge and so evil and all because of one simple man. No even all the walkers in the world made me feel like this. But I was immune to them, it was people I was not safe from. The Governor seemed like the one thing that could take away everything, my friends, this my family. He already had Russell and knew he knew it was in his eyes he knew about me, which only left me to think, Did Russell give me up? And what did he do to him to make the secret slip out. We rode past the walkers as if they weren’t even there, Carol and Carl opened the gates for us, Carols eyes stuck on my like glue as she saw be all but cowering latched onto Daryl like a an oxygen supply. Maggie and Glen came out to meet us as they had been taking watching, I got off of Daryl’s bike and watched as he did to I felt so ashamed of myself having been so tough and crumbling to nothing because of what? A crazy ass dictator wanna be? It made me sick. Daryl rubbed my arm and brushed back some of my hair holing my head in his hand he caressed my cheek. “Come on let’s get inside!” Rick called gathering a few things out of the car.

We assembled in silence in the cellblock, by the stairs. I stood under Daryl he was my safety net and I wasn’t going to stray from him. Carol stood at my side and Pliny behind her. She grabbed my hand and squeezed it lightly. She did not know what happened but she could see I was shaken and she could see Daryl was stony, Rick looked crazed and ready for war the air was prickly and weighted down. We all looked to Rick, waiting for him to speak, waiting for him to give an order or an update of some king. Anything to break the silence and to cut through the thick air. Rick grabbed his Machine gun and looked around “So I met this Governor” he spoke nodding a bit he seemed unimpressed as he looked all of us over “Sat with him for quite a while” Rick went on “just the two of you?” Merle piped in stepping out from a cell. Rick nodded I watched Merle brush my Glen “we should have got him when we had the chance bro” he muttered Maggie and Michonne glanced at each other. Rick looked at his feet before raising his head “He wants the Prison” He looked over us all again. I stood up straight and squinted Daryl shifted his wait bothered by this as well, gripping his bow. “He wants us gone” Rick added, It seemed we all took offense to this out disputations transformed significantly the fear was washing away and turning into something new. “Dead” Rick paused “He wants us dead” I took Daryl’s hand into mine and held Carol’s tighter. “For what we did to Woodbury” Carol looked down as my hand began to tremble my jaw was closed tight as I bit my tongue. “We’re going to war” Rick said dryly before walking off. My heart raced after as I looked up at Daryl who looked down at me squeezing my hand he nodded to the side telling me to follow him as he walked forward towards the stairs. He looked back at Merle, the Solider Merle gave him a small nod in return. Daryl then look back down at me and lead me up the stairs, I glanced back at Maggie to look to Glen. We might have been startled and afraid but one thing was for sure, if it as going to be a war, we were ready for it and would take the front lines. We had been through far too much to give in now. I turned around and followed Daryl.
