Clarity In A Dead World (Daryl Dixon Love Stroy)

You Wanna Fight? Bring It On Redneck!

(Tigress' POV)

I looked at Rick and then back to my friends before we all burst out laughing at how straight forward his question was.

"Well, that's the straightest way to ask I guess." Zeke laughed out. After calming down he looked at Rick and answered "Well I was partially a mechanic but that was only a cover-up, I do know how to work on cars really well though. My real job though was an infiltrator for the government, so I was pretty much a double agent more or less. I do admit I have blood on my hands though."

Rick's group looked at him in shock and I laughed some more, what can I say even though everything being said was all true their expressions were priceless.

"I was a mechanical genius, I used to make my own computers from scratch it was so much fun." Sam stated "Also I was a hacker and a damn good one too that is until I was caught by a government hacker when I broke into the Pentagon for some research data. I had two choices once caught work for them or jail time, I chose to work for them because I didn't want to make my group here worry."

"From the sounds of it you all have known each other a long time am I right?" Carol asked.

I looked at her and walked to sit by Gabreial and the others then answered: "Well yeah we have, we've known each other since we were all in diapers and grew up together." I looked at everyone "We're a family even if not all of us are blood-related." Everyone nodded in agreement. "Even though some people are in love with each other." I teased Zeke and Sam.

Sam and Zeke blushed "Oh shut up Tig." Zeke said pushing me so I fell backward I laughed and just sat back up.

"Jeez Tiggy, can you not tease us," Sam replied smiling.

"Ok since two of us still haven't said what we used to do I think we should finish that," Frost stated calmly to everyone.

"Yes, father dearest," I said poking him and smiling.

"I'm just going to ignore that and continue. Well before the dead started walking around I used to work at home as a web-designer or at least that's what all my other friends were told, in reality, I was working on experiments for the medical labs and I worked along-side the CDC on top secret experiments. I was as Tigress and the others like to call a mad scientist...."

"You were though." Our whole group cut in at the same time.

Frost slightly glared at us " I was not, I was simply experimenting with certain diseases and stuff like that."

I looked at Frost and said, "Frost you tried to bring several lab rats and mice back from the dead, you were in legal terms a mad scientist."

"I was only trying to see if what Dr. Frankenstein did could, in fact, be done that was all and it was only a personal side project." He defended.

I looked at Darwin who was playing in the dirt beside us, then leaned over and kissed his head. I turned back and reached into his bag pulling out a few toys and handing them to him.

"Thank you, mommy." He said smiling.

I smiled back "You're welcome, baby." I had noticed it had become very quiet in the last five minutes it took to hand my son his stuff. I looked back at everyone who was staring at me "Can I help you?" I slightly snapped.

Gabreial looked at Frost and said breaking the silence "So a mad scientist." everyone laughed. "So I guess it's my turn then huh? Well, I was a biologist one of the topped ranked at that. I, like Frost, worked along-side the CDC but we never went to the buildings to work. Our reasoning was since we lived with Tigress we didn't want to get Darwin sick with any diseases which the president understood. I also was an interrogator on occasion for government agents when they double crossed us I usually worked along-side Zeke for that."

"To put it simply." Trinity started to say.

"We have all worked with," Trigger butted in.

"Or for the government." I finished for them.

Everyone looked between the three of us, then Glenn asked "So which of you three is the oldest since TeAnna is the youngest?"

I answered, "Well before I answer that you got to know that we are triplets but the oldest would be me, then Trigger, and lastly Trinity."

"You guys are triplets?" Carl asked.

"Yep, we are kiddo, even though we aren't identical." Trigger answered with a smile "Also doesn't help that I got all the good looks." Trinity and I hit the back of his head at the same time. "Ow, I was just kidding. Jeez, you two are crazy and hit hard."

"If we're crazy Trigger, then so are you," Trinity said with a smile.

My hand started twitching slightly, I may have told them the truth but I still didn't really trust these people and from the looks, we were getting from Daryl I'd say he didn't really trust us either. He kept glaring at me the most out of everyone, could be because I took him down not even three hours ago. I smiled slightly to myself but covered it with my hand and a cough, he glared harder trying to intimidate me from the looks of it.

I glared back slightly and stood up walking over to him slowly but stopped to talk to Rick quietly "Rick if your boy Daryl doesn't quit glaring at me I might snap at him."

He looked where I was looking at nodded while saying "He can't help it, we have a baby here and he is very cautious of people."

I looked at him shocked *There's a baby here?* I thought to myself. "Wait there's an infant here? Who's baby is it if you don't mind me asking."

"It's my daughter Judith, my wife had to have a c-section and she didn't make it." He told me sadly.

"I'm sorry for your loss." I was telling Rick when Daryl came by and bumped into my shoulder causing me to turn and then glare at him. "What was that for? Huh?" I snapped at Daryl.

He glared right back at me "Oops sorry didn't see you there." he replied sarcastically.

"You wanna fight? If you do bring it on redneck." I snapped at him and clenched my hands into fists, if he wanted a fight I would give him one.
