Holding on (The walking dead/Daryl fanfiction)

Chapter 23

*jamies pov*

"Good morning Jamie" Rick said to me while him and Carl were working in the garden

"Mornin, need any help?" I ask him

"Sure why not" he says while smiling, I smile back and put on a pair of gloves
I bent down and started helping getting food for the pigs, I heard Rick and Carl talking

"The worms will give them extra protein" Rick said and I nodded, that's when I heard gunshots coming in from the prison, I look up at the prison worry spread across my face

"Stay close" Rick told Carl, I picked Up my bow that I brought out with me

"HELP!HELP!, WALKERS ARE INSIDE!" Lizzie a little girl yelled running out of the prison, me and Rick ran towards her

"Walkers in D" Glenn yelled running out followed by Sasha, Daryl and tyreese, we ran inside and Daryl took the gun that a Woodbury man had and gave it to Rick, I shot a walker that was about to bite a little kid then swooped him in my arms and gave him to a lady who was in a cell with some of the kids,

"Stay in here and keep the door shut" I say to her and she nodded, I walked out and shut the cell door, all I heard was screaming and crying and moans, I was hella angry, I shot some walkers until there was no more, Daryl came up to me

"Are you bit? Any scratches?" He asks and I shake my head

"Most of them are gone" I say referring to the Woodbury people

"I know" he whispers while hugging me, I sigh and we walk up to Hershel, Rick, Glenn , DR.S, Daryl and I

"Patrick was the one that started it" Hershel said to all us

"How did he die?, no wounds and no bites, he just died" Rick asks Hershel and dr. S

"And horribly too" dr.s said

"He choked to death on his own blood" Hershel said and I sighed

"All of us in here, we've all been exposed" Hershel says to us, I look at Daryl and sigh.

"Patrick was fine yesterday, and he died overnight two people died over night, that quick?" Carol asks, the council was having a meeting

"We have to separate anyone who's been exposed" carol continues

"That's everyone in the cell block, including us" Daryl says

"We can't put everyone back in D and we can't risk cleaning it up" hershel says

"How about A" carol asks

"Death row, not much of an upgrade" Glenn says

"It's clean, that's an upgrade" I say

"Will that work for dr.s?" Daryl ask

"I'll have him set up" Hershel says, we all hear coughing outside the room were having the meeting in, we all get up in a hurry out the door to see Karen coughing and tyreese walking with her

"Are you sure your ok?" Carol ask her

"She's fine, I was just about to take her to her cell to rest" tyreese answeres for Karen

"I don't think that's a good idea" Hershel says to them

"Why what's going on?" Karen asks we all look at each other

"We think it's a flu or something" Glenn says

"It's what killed Patrick" glenn adds

"Judith is in that cell block, she vulnerable" Hershel says,
Tyreese and Karen were talking with Hershel and Sasha took ty and Karen to a empty cell in the tombs

"I'll get to burying the dead ones" Daryl tells Hershel

"I'll help" I say

"Ok but wear gloves and a mask" Hershel says and we nod and walk off

"Hey are ya alright?" I ask Daryl

"I gotta be" he says and I nod.

Me and Daryl were digging when Rick walked up

"Glad you were in there" Daryl says to Rick

"I wasn't much help without my gun" Rick says

I took off my mask

"No you were, since how much time you've been taking off, you earned it, we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you" I say to him

"Nah it was all of us" he says to me

"No it was you first" I reply

"RICK, DARYL ,JAMIE!!" I hear Maggie yell, we look over at Maggie and she's motioning for us to come quick, I look beside her and see the fences caving in cause of the walkers

"Oh shit!" I say and I throw my shovel and take my gloves off and grab my bow and we start running towards her, I grab a sharp stick off the fence and start stabbing walkers the the holes on the fence

"Are you guys seeing this?... Is someone feeding these thing?!" Sasha says

"Heads up!!" Daryl yells at us cause the walkers are bending the fence

"If we don't support these fences and the walkers keep pushing on them like that then they're coming over!" Sasha says

"Daryl get the truck, I know what we gotta do" Rick says to Daryl, Daryl gets the truck and Rick grabs the pigs, Sasha opens the fence for them and Rick cuts a pig so it can't run and the walkers follow the pigs and eat them, taking off some weight of the fences so we can add support, I looked down at myself and I was covered in walker blood.

I walk back into the prison to changed my clothes, I looked over and saw Daryl looking at my back, he came over and hugged me from behind

"I'm sorry" he says

"Me too"
