EDDIE GREYSTONE-D.DIXON

CHAPTER SEVEN: SNUGGLES

Eddie had did as Daryl asked and stayed with everyone else, seeing the children cry over Hershel made Eddie's stomach swist, so he was quick to take Alex, Carl and Sophia to his room.

"What are we going to play?" Sophia asked, Eddie grinned, reaching under his bed and pulling out…"Jumanji?" All three kids asked, Eddie tipped his head.

"You haven't seen Jumanji?" He asked, the kids shook their heads, with a loud sigh Eddie begane to explain the game and the rules.

{•°WITH DARYL°•}

"Why do I need this? When I got this?" Tomas asks, Daryl rolls his eyes, "you don't fire guns, not unless you're backed up against a wall, noise attracts them, it really riles them up" he said.

"If I make enough noise will that long haired pretty boy come back?" Tomas asked, Daryl let out a low growl, looking at him with a glare, "you go towards him ever again, I'll kill ya" Daryl said.

Tomas looked at him, tipping his head before a grin spread across his face.

"Ohhh, you must've already claimed him, how does he feel, I bet he's fine as hell at riding" he said, Rick took a step forward, hand on his gun, "watch how you talk about him" Rick growled, Tomas held his hands up in mock surrender.

"We'll go in two by two, Daryl will run point with T-dog, I'll bring up rear with you, stay tight, hold formation, no matter how close the walker's get, anyone breaks ranks we could all go down and anyone runs off, they could get mistaken as a walker, end up with an ax to the head" Rick said.

"That's where you aim, these things only go down with a head shot" Daryl said, "you don't have to tell us how to take out a man" Tomas said.

"They ain't men, they're something else" T-dog said, "just remember to go for the brain" Rick reminded.

"I don't like how the little ring leader talks and looks at Eddie" T-dog whispered to Daryl, the other male grunted and gave a nod, "me neither" he grumbled.

"Man, it's too damn dark in here" an inmate quietly said as they turned a corner, "gotta hold it up high, out in front of you" Daryl instructed, "you're going to hear them before you see them" he added.

They watched 2 walkers stumble out from behind a corner, the inmates quickly ran forward and began to gang up on the walker's, sending kicks and blows to its body. Axle even ran forward and began to shank it in its Stomach.

Rick and Daryl looked at each other.

{•°SMALL BREAK TO CHECK ON EDDIE°•}

Eddie was now laying in a tent like fort, hair laying around him, some even getting in his mouth, lying around him and cuddled in his sides was Carl, Alex and Sophia, Carol awed before quickly going back to the check on Hershel.

{•°BACK TO DARYL°•}

The group now all were steadily taking out walkers.

"It's gotta be the brain, not the stomach, not the heart, the brain" Daryl reminded them, shooting a walker in the head as if to prove his point.

"Stay in tight formation, no more prison riot bull crap" Rick said, nobody noticed big tiny backing away until it was too late, the male screamed in pain as a walker ripped into the back of his shoulder with the bone of its arm, Tomas shooting it and giving Rick a heated look.
