We Will Survive Together

Chapter 25: We need to

Daryl's POV:

I was waiting for Kass and Glenn's car to come back. They seemed to be out longer then they said they would be. I noticed another walker coming to the fence. But this one was different. This walker was holding a basket of supplies. "Rick" I yelled out looking back at the fence. Rick and Carl both walked over to the fence where this mystery person was. I took out some of the surrounding walkers with my crossbow. I saw the person go down and Rick and Carl dragged her in. "Hershel. Looks like she has been shot" I walked out to the fence to grab the dropped basket and saw Kass's bag in the basket. Glenn's knife was also in their. I looked at the woman and was wondering what she did to them. They brought her into an empty cell with a door so they could keep an eye on her. "Rick" I said walking in. Everyone turned to me. The girl was now awake and was staring at me. I threw down Kass's bag and Glenn's knife. Then I sat down the basket of baby formula and other supplies for the baby. Rick studied them. "Where are our people" Rick said turning to the woman. She didn't respond. "Where are they" Rick said again this time aiming his gun at her. "They were taken" the girl finally answered. "Taken. By who" Beth responded. "Same dumbass who shot me" She said. "Hey these are our people. Do you know where they are being brought." Rick said looking at her. "Yeah. He is most likely bringing them to Woodbury. Run by a man calls himself the Governor. Pretty boy. Charming. But has secrets didn't trust him so I left" the girl said looking at all of us. "Can you tell us your name" Rick said looking at her. "Michonne" she said staring down Rick. "Ok I'll be back to talk to you more in a little bit." Rick said getting u and shutting the cell door behind him. "What are we going to do" Carl said as we all walked into the small cafeteria. "Is that even a question. Where going to go get them right" Kaley said looking around. "Of course we are but we don't even know where this place is." Rick said looking at all of us. "Then we bring the girl. She knows." I said leaning against the wall. "That could work. Ok it will be me, Daryl, and Michonne." Rick said looking at all of us. "I want to help to" Oscar said stepping forward. "Ok but that's all. We leave in 20 minutes" Rick said walking back to the cell blocks. 

Kass's POV:

I was brought into another room. Merle had put a bag on our heads so I had no idea where we were. I was sat at a table and another man took the bag off my head. I had no idea where I was. "In advance I am sorry for what they might do. I hate it but I can't do anything about it. I'm Mark" The man said while sitting at the table. "I get it you don't trust me yet. But I have to go" Mark said as he left the room. I could here Merle in the room next to me. It sounded like he was beating up Glenn. I heard him leave the room but come back seconds later with what sounded like a walker. The door shut again and I could here Glenn struggling to fight it off. After a few minutes of this going on I heard Glenn take it down. I knew he was ok and that was a small relief. Then a man came into my room. Not Merle, not Mark but someone else. "Hi" The man said. My hands had been duck taped behind me so I couldn't even try anything if I wanted to. I gave him a glare. "Don't worry your boy toy in their is ok. He is a fighter" this strange man. "Not my boyfriend. Just a member of the group I'm in" I said not letting up on my death stare. "Ah. I see. Merle thought their would be in some relation. So do you know Merle's brother. Glenn knew him." The man said sitting across the table in front of me. "Yeah" I said still staring at him. "Where is your camp. We can drive you both back and say this was a misunderstanding." This man said. "You must be stupid if you think I'm gonna give that up" I said slightly tilting my head. "Fine you win" he said leaning up. "Stand up" he said looking at my upper body. I sat their for a minute processing the information. "Stand up" He said again. I reluctantly stood up. He walked over and took the tape off my hands. He walked back over to his chair but only leaned on the table. "Take of your shirt" He said biting his bottom lip. "No" I said still staring him down. "Take off your shirt or you and Glenn will die right now" he said looking me dead in the eyes. I reluctantly took my black shirt off and sat it on the table. He stared at my chest and I tried to cover myself. "Tell me where your camp is" he said again. "Not going to happen" I said again. "Keep going then. Take off the bra" he said glancing down at my black bra. "If you don't same thing will happen" he said still standing in front of me. I took a deep breath before unstrapping it and taking it off. I instantly covered my now bare chest and was trying not to make eye contact with him. He walked up behind me which gave me chill. "Where is your camp" he whispered in my ear. I stayed silent this time. "Suit yourself" he said as he forced my body against the table. He put his hands on my body and I started to cry. "Prison" I spit out. "See that wasn't that hard" he said backing off. He grabbed my arm and my clothes and led me out of the room. He led me into Glenn's room. I could tell Glenn was just as uncomfortable as I was. "She told me where you were hold up. Didn't really have a choice if she wanted to live" the man said. He threw my clothes on the floor. Merle, Mark and the man who I was just with left the room. Glenn turned around so I could get redressed. We sat along a wall and were waiting for what was going to happen. Then after about 20 minutes they came back in and put bags on our heads again. I didn't know that Daryl's brother was capable of this much. We were on our knee's waiting for them to come back to take us to where ever they wanted us. They came back in and started to grab us when what sounded like a smoke grenade. I fell backwards after being pushed by the person who was holding me. Then I was grabbed and being taken out of the room. "Wait take me with you" I heard Mark say. "Come on then" an unfamiliar voice said. I had no idea who it was. While being dragged around we stopped inside another store. They untied my hands then I took the bag off. I saw Daryl standing there. He wrapped his arms around me. "Who did this to you" he said pulling away and looking at me. "Merle" I said looking up at him. "He's alive Daryl. He was the one who took us" Glenn said. "I need to find him" Daryl said looking at Rick. "Not yet first we need to get out of here. Then maybe we can come back." Rick said. Daryl looked at me and nodded. They handed me a gun and we ran.  I had no idea where anything was because I had a bag on my head when we first got here. I tried to stay close to Daryl and would periodically shoot. I didn't even realize that Daryl had got separated from us until I turned and saw him gone. "Rick where did Daryl go" I said stopping and looking around. Rick, Oscar, Glenn, Michonne, and Mark turned around and looked around. We heard the leader talking. We ran towards the noise but stayed low so we wouldn't be seen right away. I saw Merle standing their. "One of the terrorists, is one of our own" the man said but he was different. He was now missing an eye. I remembered that Michonne had separated from us a while ago. "Merle" he continued. The crowds gasped and that was when I noticed that their were walkers on chains around him. "I asked you where your loyalty lies. You said here. No prove it. Prove to us all that your loyalty does lie here. And fight one of the terrorists" the man said again. Then the brought a man out who had a bag on his head. "Merles own brother" he said taking the bag off of Daryl's head. My heart dropped. Merle and Daryl were staring at each other before Merle turned to the crowd. "I'm willing to prove" He started before turning and punching Daryl. "That my loyalty" he said again kicking him. "Lies in Wood bury" Merle said kicking Daryl again. I saw Merle help his brother up and standing back to back while fighting off the walkers. "Now" Rick said as he started to shoot. We all shot at the walkers and the guards taking out whoever we could. Daryl and Merle both ran towards us. Daryl grabbed my hand and we ran towards the gate to get out. Deep down I didn't completely trust Merle. Neither did Glenn. 

We got to the car and we all piled in. Daryl didn't let go of my hand the whole ride home. The ride was mostly quiet except my thoughts. All I could think about was I was about to be raped just so someone would know where the Prison was. We finally made it back to the prison. They didn't lock up Mark or Merle. I think it was because with Merle being back with his brother he wouldn't try anything. I went back to me and Daryl's cell and sat on the bed and leaned against the wall. Everyone was asleep. I heard Daryl talking in the cell next to me. Almost immediately I stood up to go find Kaley. As I stood up she ran in and wrapped her arms around me. "Are you ok" She said pulling away. I knew I wasn't because of what that man did but with Daryl standing in the door way I chose not to say anything yet. "Yeah I'm fine" I said smiling. She wrapped her arms around me again. "Hey why don't you go back to bed. We can talk more tomorrow." I said pulling away. Kaley who was now crying nodded and left the cell. I smiled and sat back on the bed. Daryl came over and sat next to me. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled him into a hug. "I am so sorry that Merle did that to you" He said still hugging me. "It's fine. When I figured out who it was I was more shocked because you said he was dead" I said still holding on to him. "I thought he was" Daryl said not letting go of me. I started to cry thinking about all that happened. Daryl pulled after noticing. "What is it" he said lightly grabbing my chin. I had to think of an excuse quick. i was used to it though so it was easy. "I thought I lost you when we got separated" I said hoping that was convincing. Daryl leaned forward and kissed my forehead. "That will never happen. Never" he said looking down at me. I nodded and he leaned forward and kissed me on my lips. "Get some sleep" he said grabbing my hand. I nodded and laid back. He laid next to me and wrapped his arms around me. I let a tear fall but tried not to start crying. I knew I wanted to tell Daryl about what happened but I couldn't..
