Theo walked over to the medical hut, where people were sick from an unknown illness.
"Theo, come out here" Siddiq pulled her away and back outside.
"How's things going?" Theo crossed her arms, looking around frustrated, she was gone for a couple months, leaving Michonne and the council in charge like she had practically done for the last few years, everything turned to shit.
"No closer to the solution, we've had 2 people die today, Rosita has it too" Siddiq frowned before crossing his arms.
"Although I appreciate the update, I meant with you" Theo sadly smiled.
"Better, the flashbacks only come to me in my sleep now, only a trigger is setting them off" Siddiq tried to smile
Theo hugged him tightly before saying goodbye, back to work on more duties.
Heading back into the cell she was met with screams from the whisperer.
"What the hell is going on?" Theo yelled as she watched Carol sticking her thumb into his wound.
"Lady, you have that animal in you" The man breathed heavily. "If we were out there, I would take you...like a dog in heat" He disgustingly looked her up and down.
Theo took a step forwards, pushing Carol to the side before punching him square in the nose.
God that felt good- Was all Theo said in her mind.
She leaned down to his eye level
"Talk" Theo angrily taunted, giving a slight head tilt, one of which Daryl picked up on, it's the same daunting tilt her father used to do.
He smiled through the blood dripping into his mouth.
"I would take you too" He smiled, spitting his blood to the ground.
Theo laughed as she looked at Carol who then continued to punch him again and again until she could physically no more.
"You are all weak... I would do anything for Alpha, she saved us... She protects us... She even sacrificed her own daughter for us..." He said causing Theo to whip around to look at the man
"She killed Lydia?" Theo pretended, more shocked if anything to find out that Alpha, was a liar.
"Yes. That's right, you convinced yourself that Lydia belonged to you." The man laughed as Theo acted, pulling gout her knife from her pocket, pushing it up against the mans throat.
She cried pretending that Lydia wasn't at home right now looking after CJ and Libbie.
"Theo..." Daryl walked towards her, pulling her away from the man, holding onto her tightly as they both pretended to cry.
"No, you're lying!" Theo yelled before running away, outside.
"Theo!" Carol ran after her.
"No. I know what you are going to say and the answer is no" Theo continued to walk home, not even turning to look at her.
