A Crossbow and a Mic (1D & Walking Dead)

Ch.65

*Liam's Pov*

I stood pacing in the watch tower looking over the prison. My mind off, surrounded in my thoughts. I looked down below me to see Daryl his face buried in his hands and a chain hanging from his hands.

Daryl's head rose when he spotted Michonne walking towards him, his blue eyes filled with sorrow and pain, reminding me of Darlene.

I lowered my head knowing there's little to nothing I can do for him or anybody else.

I picked up my rifle aiming it at the trees the scoop on. I scanned the woods with it checking for, anything actually.

As my eyes searched they landed on a familiar pair of sparkling blue eyes, her brown hair cascading down in front of her.

My first thought was Darlene.

I lowered the gun rubbing my eyes with my thumb and forefinger.

Now I'm just seeing things.

I lifted the gun back up.

Nothing.

*Daryl's Pov*

Throughout this infernal hell hold I've lost told much.

My big brother.

Though Merle didn't care at times he loved me with all his heart.

Darlene.

Dar.

My poor little baby sister out there.

She's probably dead.

I just wish I didn't let her outta my site.

She'd be here now if it wasn't for my stubbornness.

I should be the one out there not her.

No. She's just fifteen.

I chuckled to myself.

Her birthday is coming up here pretty soon.

I scoffed.

When she was little perhaps eight or ten around there Merle and I used to take her to the woods and teach her how to survive and hunt, even how to drive a motorcycle at eleven. That was pretty fun I have to admit.

The old man never approved though. He thought we were worthless scumbags not worth anything in this world not even two shits could or would he care if something happened to us. Never did like the dum bastard anyway.

~Flashback~

"Okay, Dar, hold it like this." I whispered steadying Darlene's arms.

Darlene stuck her tongue out her hands shaking as she aimed at the buck. Dar released the arrow flying through the air and hitting the deer. The deer dropped blood spilling out beneath it.

"Good job Dar!" Merle clapped.

I pulled Dar by the shoulder hugging her side.

"You did good, sissy." I smiled kissing her forehead and jogging over to receive her game.

~A Few Years Later~

"Kick the stand up." I said instructing Dar.

"OK, now what?" she asked her feet planted on the ground.

"Rev-up the engine." I ordered.

She nodded her small knuckles turning white as she gripped the handles tight.

I bit my lip hopping she'd listened carefully to my instructions that I had given her early.

Darlene lifted her up on the bike and took off down the road.

I jumped in the air cheering on my little sister. She suddenly speed up loosing control. I laughed running after her and telling her to hit the brakes. She screamed at me her searching for the brakes. Finally she came to a slow graduated stop. I panted patting her back and kissing her head.

"You did good, ya' did good."

~End of Flashback~

I smiled blinking thoroughly. My vision cleared. I sniffled standing up. I slipped my locket into my pocket.

"Daryl?"

I spun on my looking at Louis and Eleanor.

"What?" I spat rudely.

"We're sorry." Eleanor said.

My eyes fell on her.

"And whys that?" I asked.

"We understand that you miss them." Louis answered.

"You don't know shit." I said walking away.

I spotted Rick from a far, in the garden with Carl tasting vegetables.

I began walking that way until I saw Liam dash past full speed. The kid ran so fast I could of sworn it was for his life-or he did track or something as a kid.

As I approached I heard Liam panting and Rick trying to understand the kid.

"Rick-Rick she's alive."

Liam's words lingered in my mind.

Who's alive?

Dar?

His ex, he talked about so much?

One of his sisters?

His mom?

Who? Who is she?

Rick's eyes fell on me, as did Carl's then finally Liam's.

"Daryl it's Darlene."

*Carl's Pov*

My heart probably beat a million times faster. Inside I was screaming and jumping with glee that she's alive.

Earlier I know I said I'd leave but then that whole thing went down and with Liam stopping then later Louis did so also so I never did get to leave.

Then it hit me.

How does Liam know Darlene's alive? 

"Wait, Liam how do you know Darlene's alive?" Dad asked closing his eyes then reopening them to look at Liam.

I nodded wanting to understand as well.

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of Daryl as Liam told his story. Tears welling up in Daryl's eyes. After Liam finished Dad frowned his hands rubbing his face.

"Liam where exactly did you see her?" he asked.

Liam shakily pointed his finger towards the woods by the main entrance.

My heart dropped. "How'd she look at you?" I asked.

"Carl don't." Father cut in.

"No. Dad I want to know." I said. "How'd she look at you?" I repeated my question.

"With fear in her eyes as almost as if she was forced to look." he said, choking.

"Were her hands at her sides?" I asked.

"No." he replied simply.

"I know who took them."

A/N: Cliffhanger! Big question who do you think has Darlene and the boys? Did you know Walking Dead is one of the most watched shows? Last night this is what was discussed on the Duck Dsnasty and The Big Bang Theory.

Duck Dsnasty, Phil: Godwin your glowing! Godwin: Like off Walking Dead?

Big Bang Theory, Sheldon: So do you wanna catch up on the walking dead? Leonard: Sure. Sheldon: How about we watch the one where Lori dies? Leonard: I haven't seen that one. Sheldon: Or she doesn't. Let's go find out!
