"Where's Daryl?"
Rick looked over at Sofia, "He went looking for Sophia." He said, "Whatcha got?" He asked, nodding at her hand
Sofia held up an apple, walking over to her truck, where Rick was leaned over on the hood, looking over a map, "What've you got?" She smiled playfully
Rick took the apple, taking a bite, "An apple and a map." He grinned, "I'm making a plan on when we should look for Sophia. I'm marking out places we've already looked at, as well."
"Ah, look at you, Officer Friendly." Sofia smiled warmly
"I gotta be good for something, huh?" Rick grinned
"Being a thief isn't enough?" Sofia asked, taking her apple back, taking a bite
"I thought we were sharing. Like you shared your shirt with me." Rick recalled
"That's the community shirt. Found it inside a car on the highway." Sofia laughed
"It's the Rick Grimes shirt now. I've grown accustomed to it." He smiled widely
"You've had it for less than a day." Sofia argued
"Let's focus on the task at hand." Rick said, grinning as he changed the subject, "Daryl's looking in this area over here.. I'm thinking Shane and I check out over here."
"Leave Shane. Take Glenn." Sofia said, "Shane's acting a little funny since he returned from that run. He might be a liability."
"Good thinking." Rick nodded, "What did you do before this?"
"Dental hygiene." Sofia said, taking another bite of the apple
"Mm.. you fit the job." Rick grinned, taking the apple
"Oh yeah?" Sofia laughed, rolling her eyes
"Sofia?" Dale shouted, looking through his binoculars
"Yeah?" Sofia called back, walking toward Dale
"We got company inbound." Dale said, tossing the binoculars off the side of the RV
Sofia caught them, inhaling deeply as she peered through
"Whatcha got?" Rick asked, reaching for the binoculars
"No... no!" Sofia exclaimed, dropping the binoculars.
"What is it?" Rick asked, kneeling down for the binoculars
"Daryl!" Sofia screamed through tears, hysterical at the idea of him having turned. She ran through the yard of the farm, making her way to the field
"Don't touch him!" Rick shouted, "Sofia!" He yelled, running after her, "Shane! C'mon!"
Shane ran after Rick, gritting his teeth as he felt his ankle throbbing
"Daryl!" Sofia screamed louder, hearing a gunshot fire off. She watched in horror as his body hit the ground. Sofia cried as she knelt down beside him, "No, no.."
"Stop yer cryin'." Daryl mumbled, weakly
"Daryl!" Sofia wept, relief washing over her as she leaned down, kissing him deeply
Daryl kissed her back weakly, his body limp on the ground
"Get away from him!" Rick shouted, picking Sofia up off the around, placing her down behind him, shielding her with his body, covering her line of sight in case Shane had to give Daryl mercy
"He's alive! He's alive! Don't shoot!" Sofia begged
"Son of a bitch." Shane laughed, helping Daryl stand, "C'mon." He said, "Sofia, take this." He said, kicking Daryl's crossbow
