The Huntress - Daryl Dixon BOOK ONE

Part 19

Prison

Rick Carl and michonne left earlier to go find more guns, they wanted me to go but I didn't want to leave Judy, yes everyone else would be here but I just couldn't, tomorrow the boys Rick Hershel and Daryl are going to meet Phillip, to talk this all out, I wanted to come but Rick knew it wouldn't be a good idea, let's just hope it all goes to plan.

Rick came back with a tonne of guns bullets and grenades, found on a guy he used to know at the beginning called Morgan, Carl shot the man after he was shooting at them thankfully he was wearing a vest, they managed to get a proper cot for Judy as well as a photo of Lori, Carl thought I'd have been mad but like I told him, that was there mother I'm just a guardian, though Carl calls me much more then that, that's all I feel I am.

They got back from meeting Phillip, Rick knows he was planning on killing everyone, he said he wanted michonne and the war would be over and he did think that's what he wanted to do but he's thought about it more, before anyone could say he no longer would do that to her Merle had already took her and was on there way to meet them a few days later.

Daryl was on his way to find Merle and michonne you wanted to go with but needed to stay back and prepare for the war that was bound to come, Rick stood round the group and told them his first plan was to hand over michonne but he couldn't go through with it now it's to late as Merle had already taken her, the group wasn't happy he made the decision without everyone else which he has now said it will be group choices from now on.

Daryl came back cold, colder than you had ever seen him before, tears streaming down his face and since Merle wasn't with him you figured you knew what had happened but didn't ask him he's kept his distance grieving on his own and you know all to well not to push someone going through the motions, Carl Hershel Beth and Judy was packing to leave and wait out in the forest away from all the shooting that's most likely going to happen, we all packed out bits so it looked like we left the cells.

We waited in our positions around the prison staying hidden as clambers of feet made there way through, all of Phillips people holding guns some  not wanting to really be there, you threw down the first smoke and flash bangs and shouted "NOW!" All of your group started firing there weapons at the people until they all got in there cars and left "we did it" carol came out wrapping her arms around Daryl, your heart hurt at the sight and anger made its way through your body yet you couldn't show it, "we need to go after him" you spoke up loudly "yes he's left but he could regroup and come back" "she's right" Daryl spoke agreeing with you "we will stay here to protect them just in case" Glenn said talking about him and Maggie "okay let's go" yourself Rick Daryl and michonne got into the car and drove after Phillip and his people.

You guys came you a stop when you seen trucks that had just flew the prison parked up and loads of walkers chewing on fresh meat, you all got out with your weapons drawn, you brung your bow back and shot an arrow through the walkers face, a bang from the truck window a woman with Curly black hair sat with her arms raised in surrender, "please don't kill me" she spoke up as Daryl opened the truck door "what happened" Rick asked the woman "he went crazy just started firing at all of us, killed everyone I pretended to be dead" you wasn't shocked you knew he was a dickhead "we are going to Woodbury your gunna help us in" we all got back into the car.

Woodbury

Arriving at Woodbury where 2 people guarded the wall "tyreese Sasha it's me" "Karen?" The man asked "where's the governor" "he killed everyone, and left" Rick shouted out "it's true I was the only survivor" took us a few minutes to get them to let us through but they did "wheres andrea" you spoke up "she's not here she jumped the fence to see you a few days ago" "yeah Karen said but she never made it" you was walking through the halls as it all started to look familiar "maybe she's through here" "how do you know there's rooms here" the girl Sasha asked "it's were he held me and my friends beat them half to dead and well you know done something no one should go through to me" you didn't need to say the words to know they understood what you was saying.

You walked into the room where blood was flowing out, stopping at the sight of Andrea against the wall,she was pretty much dead and all though you wasn't close you didn't like to see anyone like this " he...hey" she coughed out, michonne was at her side right away "I'm not going to make it, he bit me" she pointed at the dead walker on the floor, you walked out the room after saying goodbye to Andrea.

your head was spinning as memories of the day you spent here, it wasn't the same room but it was the same hallway, you knew you shouldn't have but you walked to the room it happened in and stood just inside "what are you doing in here" you didn't have to turn to know it was Daryl "this is where it happened" your heart rate was high, Daryl's breathing got heavier "I wished him dead and now he is" you nodded " I know, I know you didn't mean it" "it's not the same though I'm sad because it's my brother but I'm also glad because of everything he's put me through my whole life and what he put you through" you turned to looked at Daryl "I get it, he wasn't the best brother he always bullied you, I could tell that the second I met the bloke, I would have never forgiven him so in a way no offense I'm glad he's gone, he's a constant reminder of what happened to me, all I need is the people I love around me and hopefully your stick around to" Daryl smiled at her slowly pulling her into one of the few hugs they have "ill always be here for you" after he spoke the shot rang out and you realised Andrea was dead.
