''Put ya left hand here for support and ya right hand by the trigger.'' Daryl explained. ''Place ya cheek against the back so ya can see through the scope.''

''Alright.'' Michelle nodded.

''Keep ya wrists relaxed or ya gonna hurt yourself.'' Daryl said as he placed his hands on Michelle's wrists as he stood behind her while she kept her eyes on the target. ''Alright.''

Daryl took a step back and he saw Michelle standing perfectly ready, relaxed and focused.

''Keep both eyes open and fire when ya ready.'' Daryl said as Rain jumped from the metal table and landed on his shoulder, making him smile at her.

Ben & Dog were sitting next to Daryl watching Michelle when she fired a bolt from Daryl's crossbow and she hit the middle of the dart board!

''Yeah!'' Daryl cheered as Ben & Dog barked.

''Yes! Finally got it!'' Michelle said and gave Daryl a high five.

''Knew you'd get it, Jukebox.'' Daryl smiled.

''It took me several tries.'' Michelle chuckled. ''Thanks for teaching me how to shoot your crossbow.''

''No problem.'' Daryl smiled at her. ''Pretty soon you'll be shootin' Walkers with it.''

''I gotta practice a lot longer before I can hit moving targets.'' Michelle said as she placed the crossbow on the table.

''You're already a great shot with ya guns and ya knives.'' Daryl said. ''Your skill is there, ya just gotta adjust it to the crossbow.''

''I guess.'' Michelle smiled shyly. ''But using the crossbow is your thing, Mr. Crossbow Hero.''

Daryl chuckled.

''But I'll keep practicing in case I ever do have to use it for some reason.'' Michelle stared at the crossbow for a moment and something entered her mind that kinda scared her and Daryl saw it as she kinda flinched from her own thought.

''Ya alright, Jukebox?'' Daryl asked as he stepped closer to her.

''Ye-Yeah.'' Michelle nodded quickly. ''Don't know why, but I....I just saw myself shooting Keith in the head with your crossbow.''

''He deserves it with everythin' he's done.'' Daryl said.

''True. But I just never thought that far, you know?'' Michelle said and Daryl nodded. ''Gotta take everything one day at a time.''

''True.'' Daryl agreed.

Ben walked up to Michelle and she smiled at him as she gently scratched his head.

''Tomorrow's the day.'' Michelle sighed.

''Ya ready for it?'' Daryl asked.

''Gotta be.'' Michelle said, making Daryl smile at her.

''Alright. Tomorrow we kick ass.'' Daryl said, and they both smiled as they bumped fists.

*****

The Next Day.
Daryl, Michelle & Ben were standing on a roof of a building a couple of streets away from the ship keeping watch for any of Keith's men driving off away from the ship. Then they were gonna follow them to Keith's location and hopefully his main lab where they can destroy everything that Keith has made or has planned for the future.

Once they saw a truck leaving, the trio rushed out of the building and Ben ran ahead to catch sight of the truck again as Daryl & Michelle got on his motorbike. Daryl started it and rode off and paused at the corner of a street as they saw Ben at the next corner while he was watching which way the truck was going. Ben barked at them to follow him.
