Haileys Pov

I grip the bandana Maggie gave me and breath heavily as I'm lost in the thought of merle trying to keep me safe.

What I forgot was the fact that it was a bad idea to zone out while your brothers argued in a zombie apocalypse.

I'm completely taken aback when a walker Pounces on me.

"Daryl!!" I shout when I can't grab my gun.
Daryl shoots it down.

"What's wrong with you?!" He basically shouts
"I-" he cuts me off
"You never let your guard down!" Daryl shouts
I shrug my shoulders.

"Just leave me alone" I say feeling anger when he shouts
"It's nothing!"
"You could have died!" Daryl shouts

I can't help it when I shove him to the ground.

"Shut up! Your acting just like dad" I shout as I pull out my gun.
Daryl and Merle just stare at me in suprise when tears start to roll down my cheeks.

I drop my gun and fall on the floor.

"Are you okay?" Asks Daryl
"No! You always protected me and merle never did anything and when I needed him most he didn't do anything!" I shout as I feel my anger boil up more.

"I was basically dead if it wasn't for you and my family dangering their lives." I shout as I get up and wipe the tears
"And thanks to this dumb Ass" I point my finger at merle "Oscar got shot and is dead!"

Merle shrugs
"Who cares about a nigger" says merle
"I do! He was my friend! He was closer than we'll ever be" I shout as I get up in my brothers/merles face
"And you can go ahead and hit me just like gramps. You were just like him" I say in his face as I walk away.

I ignore my brothers as they try calling for me to come back but that's when I hear a baby.

"You guys hear that? It's a baby" I say as I run towards the sound

Few minutes later

I Finally make it to a river and notice two guys fighting off walkers and baby crying.

I ignore my brothers as they say stuff and run towards the river, shooting down a walker.

"Cover me! I'm helping you!" I shout as I stab down a walker

My brothers follow behind me as we Finish off the walkers.

I breath heavily but notice merle go into the car.

I feel anger so I pull out my gun and aim at Merle.

"Get out of the car" I say as I smack him softly
"I know you ain't talking to me little sister" he says
"Get out" I shout

He sighs and gets out of the car.

"Get out of here!" Shouts Daryl

I roll my eyes and walk back towards the forest angrily.

Few more hours

I listen to my brothers arguing.

"What was that back there" says Daryl angrily
"They at least owed us some'in for saving their lives" says Merle
"They had a baby" says Daryl turning towards them
"So if they didn't you would have left them for the dead" shouts merle
Daryl glares at him.

"Hailey want to know what me and Daryl planned" says merle
"You wouldn't dare tell her" says Daryl
"Oh but I will." Merle pauses "we planned on raiding that camp"

"But it didn't happen" says Daryl
"Oh but it would have if it wasn't for me getting cuffed on that roof" says Merle
"You got yourself into that. And cutting your hand, that was on you" says Daryl
"No it w-" Daryl cuts him off
"No it's your damn fault for being a big damn baby" says Daryl as he turns away.

"Shut up"says merle pushing Daryl.

That's when I see Daryls shirt tear and the scars and burn marks show.

I turn away.

"I-I didn't know" says Merle as Daryl notices his ripped shirt. He puts his backpack to cover it.

"Yea you did. He did the same to you and Hailey was getting the same damn treatment" Says Daryl as he gets up.

I cringe at the memory of the hot poker stick on my back.

I quickly shake the memory away and start walking away from them.

"Where you going" asks Merle
"Somewhere we belong" I shout as I walk away from Merle and follow Daryl
"By the way I know I'm the one walking but your the one leaving..again" says Daryl as he keeps walking.
I follow and hear my brother mumble something.
