Daryl watched as Owen stumbled off the front porch almost dragging Koa who was just a little less weak then him.

He clenched his fists as he watched her laugh at his clumsiness.
It was a feeling that was partly related to the feeling of killing but mixed with another feeling of dread.

He just stared the the two as they walked to Rick who was waiting outside.

"What the hell is he doin out here Rick!" Daryl came running up.

Owens mentality had completely changed from Tim to time, when Koa had met him he was a psychotic lunatic that held her at gunpoint but now he looked at her begging for mercy, shaking, scared.

"Daryl this ain't no business of yours." He placed his hand on his hip and dismissed Daryl but Daryl was not taking his no for an answer.

"Koa, please just- just put me back." He pleaded at her with his big black eyes and Koa felt a strange force pulling the back of her mind.
Like a horse on reigns she felt like no matter what she had to protect or help Owen now and she couldn't really put her finger on why.

"Daryl. Leave him alone please me and Rick will figure this out okay?"

"Rick! You just gon sit there and waste your 'threat to the community' card on this shit!"
He mocked Rick and in return the old cop simply scoffed.

"Daryl please just, we'll figure it out okay?"

"Take Shark hunting with you and I'll figure this all out I promise" Koa reassured him but the rage never subsided and Daryl picked up the dog gently and stormed off to his bike.

They all met in the place campfires were held and Rick, Koa, and Owen sat there joined by Carol and Michonne.

"I know I sound ridiculous but Owen saved my life and he would save any of yours if he had too im sure!"

Owen piped up after Koa's words.

"The doctor, I didn't kill her. Left her there with a gun and told her to be safe while she instructed me to go get bandages for a wound I had.
Came back and she shot herself."

The group grew silent and Koa's eyes met his in confusion.

"You threatened me with her, saying that it would happen to me too!" She snapped at him conflicted at the thought of him lying while everyone stood back.

"You had a full Amory of knives and a gun Koa what the hell was I supposed to do!"

They went back and forth until Rick intervened.

"Stop it! Owen can stay as long as he is under some sort of supervision all times."

Michonne scoffed and walked off at Rick's words and Carol just sighed as if disappointed.

Daryl held the small puppy to his chest as he rode through the woods parking his bike and going on foot placing the dog down.

"Can you believe that woman eh?" He talked to Shark sometimes when nobody was around.

"She's a idiot! He's going to kill her!" He kicked a rock not really hunting but rather having a tantrum in the woods.

"She spits that shit about how he 'saved her' well I fucking saved her plenty!"
He felt guilty talking like this about her to her dog that just happily waddled beside him.

He sat against a tree calming down and playfully began pushing the puppy around and watched as it jumped up and rolled over.

"Ridiculous of me to think she would want sum like me anyway." He looked down at the ground and just stared.

The rest of the trip was silent and Shark was not being the best hunting buddy as he tripped and rolled, crunching every leaf underneath him and a squeak of a bark let out everytime anything moved.
