The Sheriff's Daughter, The Archer's Girl

Involving Another Group

                The next morning we went to talk to Gregory about fighting with us. 

                              "No, as far as I'm concerned we have no connection with Alexandria. Sorry, Ricky, but no. I won't fight them, I'd prefer to keep what peace we have with them. I risked my life keeping Margaret and Sasha here," he said. 

                      "What peace? They brought walkers in here to prove a point. While you were hiding like a little bitch, Jesus, Sasha, and Maggie, because that's their names, risked their lives to save a coward and these people," I said. 

                             "Leave, go out the back so you're not seen," Gregory snapped. 

                                     We walked out, "what now?" I asked. 

                                             "Well, we'll know if he plans anything with Jesus, Sasha, and Maggie here," dad said. 

                             "And Enid," Maggie said. 

                                            Then Enid ran inside, "come outside!" We walked out to see some Hilltop people. 

                          "You're going to fight the saviors, we're in," a woman said. 

                        "Can you fight?" Dad asked. 

                          "We can learn," a man said. 

                          "They still have numbers on us," dad sighed. 

                         "They can learn. We have to go through, they'll go to Alexandria when they realize Daryl is gone," I said and Daryl tightened his hold on my hand. 

                              "What's the rush? We'll be able to tell what they're planning to do, it's long range," Jesus said holding up one of their walkie talkies. 

                                     "Then where are we going?" I asked. 

                                      "I think it's time you met Ezekiel, King Ezekiel of the Kingdom," he replied. 

                               When we got closer to the Kingdom we pulled over, "how much further?" Dad asked. 

                                                       Before I could hear his response Daryl grabbed a hold of me and pulled me back into the car while he stood in between my legs, "Daryl, what's wrong?" I asked. 

                                  "I know this isn't anything new to us, but I killed a guy, I didn't have to, he was gonna let me take a bike and go right out the door, but I let the thought of 'what would I do if this guy told them I left and that I was going back home and if I wasn't there and Negan got there? What would he do to you?' I only thought of you the whole time," he said looking at the ground. 

                          I pulled his chin up so he was looking me in the eyes and said, "baby, listen to me, it's okay. Had I known it would've helped you I'd came and got you myself. I was going to go with Negan to get you, but I knew he wouldn't let me out of his sight. Now, I have you back and that's all I care about," then I kissed him. 

                           "Jamie, Daryl, let's go," dad said. 

                                                         We all walked into the Kingdom. While standing there we was all looking around, "Morgan?" Tara asked.
