The Bleeding Scar [TWD]

Chapter 6: Deadly Punches

"He better be okay. It's my only word on the matter" Daryl said to T-dog. They were driving for fifteen minutes and Daryl was constantly glaring at T-dog. Stefan had his hand on Erika's back as the dog was sleeping with it's head on his lap.

"I told you the geeks can't get at him. The only thing that's gonna get through that door is us." T-dog answered tiredly. Okay, he had made a mistake but who doesn't?

"We walk from here.." Glenn said after he turned off the engine. Then Glenn and Rick opened their doors and Daryl rolled up the back door. The noise woke the dog up and she jumped out the truck. Stefan and T-dog followed and lastly Glenn and Rick. Stefan held the leash and everyone started running on the train track.

After some endless minutes of running, the men reached a tall barbed wire. Glenn opened the spot that Saphira and him had cut at the very start and they went through it.

"Merle first or guns?" Rick asked.

"Merle! We ain't even having this conversation." Daryl stated.

"We are." Rick said as he looked at him.

"You know the geography. It's your call." The sheriff said to Glenn this time.

"Merle's closest. The guns would mean doubling back. Merle first." The Korean answered and all of them started running towards the building that Merle was at..

[Back at the Camp]

Saphira was in the lake..With eyes closed she stayed in the water. She wasn't swimming..She was standing in the lake, feet not touching the sand and she was just thinking.. After thirty seconds she felt the need to fill her lungs with oxygen again. She brought out of the water her head, opened her eyes and breathed. She saw around her and noticed Shane trying to teach Carl how to catch frogs. Then she saw the women of camp, aside of Lori, doing the laundry. Thinking they could use her help she swam towards them..

"Need help, ladies?" She asked as she stood up and she squished the water out of her long, brown hair with her hands.

"We wouldn't mind it actually." Amy answered. Saphira then sat on a crate and Amelia handed her some clothes and a soap.

"Can someone explain to me how the women wound up doing all the Hattie McDaniel work?" Jacqui complained.

"The world ended. Didn't you get the memo?" Amy asked.

"It's just the way it is.." Carol said as she looked at her husband that was smoking by their car. After that, all the women started scrubbing the clothes with the soap.

"I do miss my Maytag.." Carol broke the silence.

"I miss my Benz, my sat nav.." Andrea continued along.

"I miss my coffeemaker with that dual-drip filter and built-in grinder, honey.." Jacqui said.

"My computer..And texting." Amy said with a sad expression.

"Or even better.. Music." Amelia sighed.

"How about you, Saphira? What do you miss?" Jacqui asked. Saphira then stopped scrubbing and glanced at her..

"I know it's gonna sound weird..But I kinda miss my job.." She answered.

"Your job? I mean, okay you had a cool job but wasn't kind of exhausting?" Andrea wondered out loud.

"It was... But it was my safe place, you know? We were like a family.. One for all and all for one type..And every day was like an action movie for us..God, I miss this adnventure.." She said and started scrubbing again..
