The Undead Savior

2 years later

Daryl and I have been travelling a lot seeing more of the world keeping ourselves away from people our relationship growing. We never asked each other out but it wasn't needed. We were now on our way back to Alexandria the truck filled with Food and weapons we have scattered over the year.

Alexandria's door opens and before I got out I was hugged by a brunette girl calling me out. 'Judith how big you have become.' i smiled at her recognizing her voice. Carl hugging me higher than me now. 'Carl so handsome you have become.' i ruffled his hair Snow and Rain jumped out licking Judith and Carl.

It didn't take long before I was hugged by more people till Rick crushed me. 'Why didn't you return earlier why. do you know how guilty I have been these two last years.' he scolded me making me laugh at him. 'Rick humans ain't my thing.' he sweatdropped and stepped back. Daryl opened the back seeing all the food and weapons and more. 'What how.' Rick's eyes grew. 'Well we travelled a lot we hid the truck and filled it up over the last year Hilltop and The Kingdom should also get one on their door soon.' I smiled. We left the truck outside the gate with a note before we left not saying hi to anyone.

Daryl stayed close to me now after the people started to take stuff out of the truck my wolves running around with Judith and Michonne's son. Rick's eyes are brighter everyone is happy. Rick dragged us to the meeting room snow and Rain stayed with Judith. He told us everything that happened over the two years. The skinwalker trying to take the town down and they had to fight back harder. I was a bit sad by the news of the new death and new struggles but I couldn't let that get to me.

'I'm sorry that happened here.' i said not leaving my eyes on Rick. 'Why did you leave we would have been safe if you stayed. You should have stayed... they would have been alive' Some woman said I didn't know her but I have seen her around. I sigh knowing exactly why I left. 'I left for exactly what you just said. I was getting too attached not liking that and knowing everyone will depend on me all the time I'm, not this town babysitter. I have to fight for what is mine and the same goes for everyone else. You cannot blame this on me I was not the one who killed them the world isn't Sunshine and Rainbow anymore you need to stand up and keep fighting. fighting for tomorrow for your loved ones whether they are dead or alive.' I sigh before I stand up.

'This was exactly why I left, I am not your bodyguard I am not your protector yes I have been helping and fighting alongside you all but that doesn't mean I'm your bodyguard. I really should have left Rick and them after I saved them like I usually do. I keep fighting through the world for the dead and the alive. I keep standing tall no matter how many times I have been shot or cut. I cannot save every life I come over and even if I decided to stay there two years who know if I was on a trip to the Kingdom when that happened I wasn't here when the horde came after your town I was lucky I just came back and saved Rick and killed off the horde while getting cut I didn't have to do that did I? I don't own anyone here anything yes I have helped where I felt like it but if this is my thanks then I will not be any part of this anymore.'

I walked off angry knowing all my wrong decisions over time. I whistled for my wolves they were beside me in an instant I didn't even wait for the gate to open I lifted my wolves and walked off my backpack still on me. Why did I come back? Why did I get attached? This world was not the same not that there wasn't killing before.

I walked off my wolves close angry by how I was welcomed after everything I have done I knew from the beginning that getting attached and letting others get to use to my help will blame me in the end.

Daryl pov.

I sat there until someone blamed Anna, why her and not me too. Then I kept listening to Anna explain to everyone in this room how she was no bodyguard and how this world worked and I agreed to everything this wasn't Anna's fight she can't save everyone no matter how hard she tried but also now I understand why she stayed away from humans other than they being evil.

They get too independent on her help they get too used to using her since she is a good fighter and they let the blame fall on her shoulder when she isn't there helping. She wasn't a member of the community not like a normal once she did what she wanted she left and came back how she wished. I become like that too, everyone listens to her speech before she stormed out I knew she was angry. I knew she now regret getting close. All I could hope was that she didn't regret being with me.

That was when a thought hit me were we even together have I ever asked her to be my girlfriend or anything yes we said we loved each other and made love but were we even a couple? My thought started to run wild unsure what to feel or do.

Rick slammed his hand on the table anger dozing off him. 'Is this how we treat our saviour how many times have she saved us over and over and if it wasn't for her we would have starved or worse? Nigael could have taken this place down the first time. Is this really how you treat someone that has done so much for us blaming her ?' Rick then stormed out just as angry as Anna I followed finally getting out of my thoughts.

I looked over not sure where to start to look for her I wanted to make sure she was okay. I kept looking around before Judith and Carl came running over. 'Dad, Snow and Rain disappeared.' then it hit me she left she must have rushed for the gate. 'Have someone left ?' i called out to the guard. 'Well, this woman carried two big Wolves and jumped over the gate and walked off.' I now hit the wall angry she left. I should have followed right away. I struggle to hold back tears. 'She will be back' I knew better it could take years before she will be back.

I slowly sat down my tears falling anger and disepointment why did she leave me behind I know she loved me so why. I sat there for an hour before Rain came running back I could hear his howl and I whistled back making them open the gate I was then jumped by Rain. 'Where is Anna?' i asked worried he howled and I understood she have left Rain was sent to watch Daryl back. 'Doesn't this means she will be back' Rick questioned never leaving since we stormed off angry. 'No this means she wants me to be safe she sent Rain to take care of me.'

Rick looked down he had fisted his hands. 'Anna, always said how she never liked getting attached to how they all will depend on and use her or other things that human was just as dangerous as walkers of even more danger. I only understood half of what she said until today, it hit me like a train wreck knowing everything she have been hinting and telling over the years was all true. This is why she left. Now she is questioned why she even came back or why she even ended up staying. I should have followed her right away.' my tears fell now. sadness and anger Rain licked my face trying to comfort me.

Rick sat close his hand on my shoulder. 'We will see her again.' he tried to comfort me. 'will we?' he was sure of it.
