Blue : Daryl's baby girl

Chapter 25 : Hard day

Blue's P.O.V

After my not so fun bath time Daryl went to work helping move bodies from all over the camp. Seeing how I dont have the power to really help with that and my busted ribs I decided to go over to Andrea. She had lost her sister during the attack and sat holding her all night. I knew she must be on a lot of pain and that Amy wasn't fully dead yet, so I slowly walked over beside her. She didnt move a muscle. I walked over to be between her and the RV and carfully layed down. Softly I whined to her and inched my head near her lap hoping to try and give her some sort of comfort. To my surprise she turned to look at me and the corner of her lips smiled for a second before returning to stare at Amy. So I just layed close but not touching her. My next concern was on Amy, she was turning slowly and I was prepared to do what needed to be done if Andrea didnt.

After a while Lori came up to Andrea. She glanced at me with a smile she never really gave me before and then turned and crouched beside Andrea.

"Andrea.....I'm so sorry. She's gone. You got to let us take her. We all cared about her and I promise we'll be as gentle as we can." Lori spoke softly to her but got no response at all. She seemed to sigh internally before standing and walking away.

Time slowly passed as walkers were being placed in a burning fire after Daryl drove a pickax through there head insuring their death. Glancing over at the small group forming a little ways away I could see Rick, Lori, Shane, Dale, and Carol all talking and looking our way. I couldn't help the small whimpers escaping me as I worried about what they were planning to do.

Just as that thought left my head Rick begun to walk over this way. I lifted my head and whimpered again as he approached. He had just begun to crouch down saying Andrea's name right as she pulled a gun in his face, stopping him instantly and causing my to spring to my feet fur fluffed up.

Andrea said dryly "I know how the safety works.". Rick just slowly nodded saying "Alright, okay. I'm sorry" standing back up slowly. He retreated back to the group as Andrea returned to staring at her sister. I let my fur lay flat again and decided to follow Rick back to the group which Daryl had joined. I sat down beside Carol how smiled sadly and begun to gently pat my head and back as the others begun talking.

"Y'all cant be serious? Let that girl hamstring us? The dead girls a time bomb." Daryl began. Rick looking down asked "what do you suggest?". Daryl said easily "Take the shot. Clean, in the brain from here. Hell, I can hit a turkey between the eyes from this distance.". For one of the first times I did not agree with Daryls idea, I thought it was curl. Lori voiced her agreement with me "No. For God's sake let her be.". Daryl scoffed glanced at me then walked away. He knew I was okay with Carol and walked over to Jim who seemed to have been lost in thought as Daryl says to him "wake up jimbo. We've got some work to do.".

I watched Daryl close as he dropped his pickax and began to help Morales drag a guy towards the fire, only this guy was one of us. Glenn seemed to notice this to as he quickly asked them "what are you guys doing? This is for geeks. Our people go over there." His voice seemed to being raising and I could sense his anger and sadness mixing. "What's the difference? They're all infected." Daryl said. "Our people go in that row over there. We dont burn them! We bury them.." Glenn's emotions showed through as he yelled. Daryl and Morales then moved the man to the other row.

Daryls emotions to started to show as he said quite angrily "you reap what you sow.". Morales glared and said "you know what? Shut up man.". I flattened my ears and felt a whine building up in my throat. Carol stopped petting me, her too watching the scene.

"You'll left my brother for dead. You had this coming!" Daryl yelled angrily and walked away. I stood and quickly trotted after him. He stood near the outside of camp close to the burning walker fire. Nudging one of his hands with my nose I whined once and wagged my tail trying to help him feel better. Daryl instantly patted my head and sighed. Sadly this moment didnt last long.

"A walker got him! A walker bit Jim!". Everyone was right to there feet. Daryl picked up his pickax and we walked quickly back over. Daryl approached "show it to us, show it to us" he demanded getting closer. I stayed right by his side fur fluffed, head low, ears back, and a growl working its was up my throat. As Jim picked up a shovel my growl escaped as I bared my teeth.

I could her shane yell for jim to take it easy and put the shovel down as Daryl yelled for Tdog who was behind jim to grab him. Tdog knocked the shovel from his hands and pulled his arms back grabbing him as Daryl ran forward and lifted Jim's shirt revealing a bit to Jim's stomach. Daryl and Tdog quickly backed away as jim just repeated that he was okay.

The group seemed to all be sharing looks as jim continued to repeat that he was okay. This was bad.....
