Girl in the mask(A Daryl Dixon Love Story) (Under revision)

Chapter eight

We were all freaking out especially Sasha. Where could he have gone especially this late at night. We couldn't find him so we decided to go back to the church. We also couldn't find Daryl or Carol.
I was almost freaking out as much as Sasha but I knew it wouldn't help if I lost it. I had barely gotten Carol back in my life I couldn't just lose her without at least a good bye. But I was also freaking out because Daryl, one of the most important people in the group was missing, I hated to admit it but he was one of the reasons this group was alive to begin with even if he did hate my guts.

Everyone was on edge and then Abraham said we should leave to Washington which caused a huge argument about who was going or not. So they made a deal if they stayed that Maggie and Glenn would go with them in like 12 hours. It had been a while then we heard noises outside. Some of us looked out the window and Bob was laying out there on the ground he was breathing I could see his chest rising and falling. We quickly went out to get him but realized he was missing a leg so we had to carry him in. When we laid him down he told us what happened and how Terminus survivors had chopped off his leg and eaten it and how he had been bitten since they got back from the run earlier. Sasha was devastated I could see it in her face.

We decided on a plan and I was to stay with the group in the church which including Carl, Judy, Gabriel, Tyrese, Eugene, Bob, and Terra. I was to make sure nobody came anywhere near them or hurt them. We hide in one of the rooms and waited for the results.

They fell for it. "You should come out I know who exactly is in her it will go easier for you if you surrender" we heard Garth call and he kept going. I swear to god he really enjoys hearing himself talk I shook my head with annoyance but then Judy started to cry. "Damn it" I muttered.

Then I heard the rick and the rest come in and subdued them so I went and tried to calm down little Judy. I didn't really pay attention to what happened next I just know they were gone for good and father Gabriel was mortified. I didn't care through I was to focused on Judy trying to make her stop fussing.

It didn't take me long and finally most of the dangerous stuff had passed but most of us didn't sleep through the night. The next morning we said our good byes to Bob. I didn't really know him that well but he was kind to me so that made him alright in my book. When I talked to him for the last time he seemed strangely at peace with what was going to happen.

It all happened in an hour then we set out to bury him and held a small little memory. I had felt bad about the loss of a group member so I asked if they would mind if I played a small piece for him with my flute I kept hidden in my pack. They agreed as long as it wasn't to loud. I grabbed the flute and made sure I was facing away from them so they couldn't see my face.

I played a slow melody and made it memorable for them. Sasha was crying all the way through. When I was done I mumbled a small prayer and a quiet "Goodbye Bob you will be missed." We all went our separate ways and then later joined back up to say our goodbyes to the group that was leaving.

When they were gone we went about the day and waited for Carol and Daryl to come back, if they're even alive. I didn't want to believe that but sooner or later we'd have to face the truth. It had gotten late and I was keeping watch with Michone outside then father Gabriel came out and started to talk to us but I wasn't paying much attention to them. Then we heard noises off in the trees.
Michone and I jumped to our feet and went to investigate. Then Daryl popped out of the trees. "Where the hell have you been?" Michone said "and where's Carol?" I added he looked at us for a moment then said "Come on out" I looked behind him expecting Carol but this kid comes out.

"Daryl where is Carol?" I said trying not to freak out or snap at him. He didn't reply "Where is she?!" I yelled and grabbed his shirt collar. He shook his head "she was kidnapped" he replied but it just made me angrier. "And you let that happen? You let who ever it is take her?!" I yelled I couldn't control my anger or the angry tears that started to flow I was pissed and freaking out I couldn't lose the last remaining part of my past that kept me sane to a certain point.

"Trust me she's safe she is safer and better off where she is right now" the kid spoke up as he tried to reassure me. I looked Daryl in the eyes and I saw the regret and I just pushed him away. "Ok fine but I don't want you anywhere near me Dixon you hear me. At least until I no longer want to kill you." I said and started to walk into the church.

This was going to be another long night I thought as I stormed into the church in a rage and went immediately to one of the corners and punched the wall till I realized I was bleeding and Rick made me stop before I did any more damage to my hands. When I looked at my hands they were a bloody mess I had broken a lot of the skin on my knuckles.

"Damn it" I said as the anger left me and my hands started to hurt. "Come here" Tyrese said as he took me off to the side and started to clean the wounds with water and started to bandage them up as best he could. "Sorry you have to do this" I mumbled in a quiet tone. "It's fine I know how you feel if it was my sister or anyone in the group I would probably do worse and considering you and Carol have history it's fine to be mad" he said and I gave him a small smile. "Thank you Tyrese it means a lot" I said as he finished up my hands. After he was done we joined everyone and they started to discuss what happened and what was going to happen.
