It was an important day for Rick's Group, they found a stranger yesterday and he told them about the place.&Alexandria&
At the first moment, the archer thought he is talking shit but he had evidence for him and the others. Daryl took a look on every photo. He was really surprised when he saw these walls.
Stable.
Safe.
Dangerous.
This place looks secure, but also like a trap. He wasn't so convinced, but he told that nobody.
Now the others are sitting in the cars, on the way to Alexandria. Daryl was again in his thoughts and looked around. He wishes that Merle could see that, but he's gone.
'I need to finish this part.. Leave it behind me.. Start a new chapter' he spoke to himself.
'I need to accept that he's gone.'
"Daryl are you okay?"It was the voice from Beth. He really likes this girl, she's always positive and very kind. She's like a sister to him. He pushed the button and took a deep breath before he talked into the walkie talkie. "ye ye Imma fine. Don't worry 'bout me."-
"Keep watching the street, kay?" Her voice was worried. She knew already that Daryl isn't so happy and healthy because of how he looks like.
"Course." I replied.
After a few hours, the archer saw the gates. He was the first vehicle in line. The gate is much higher than on the photos. He guesses that this place is more then a trap, but he will see how it works.
Rick turned the engine off and looked at the gate. "I hope my kids are safe now, and all of you." He smiled gently and opend the door. As he closed the door, he took a deep breath and looked over to Daryl who is sitting on his motorcycle. He sees it on his face, that he is untrusted.
What is he thinking about? How does he feel?
"Rick let's go. We're safe here." Said Aaron who takes him away from his thoughts.
He nodded to him and walked after him with his group. As they walked through the gate, thier faces are surprised. This place looks like a zombie apocalypse had never happened. Pretty Houses, kids with bikes... The complete opposite as to how the world actually looks.
"Welcome to Alexandria, I'm Deanna." She was an older woman but she looks friendly. Beside her, was a man the same age like her as well.
"That's my husband Reg Monroe, he built these walls. And you?"
Rick clears his throat and replied: "Rick Grimes. This is Daryl, my son Carl, Glenn and his wife Maggie, Beth, Sasha, Eugene, Abraham and Rosita."
"It is my pleasure." She said with a smile. A slightly younger man stood before Deanna. He aimed while straightening the gun on Rick's group and shouted loudly: "Weapons down!"
He didn't even get to know that he just contradicted himself. Daryl Interfered because this man annoys him so much. "Shut dafuck up, douchebag!" He yelled. Rick looked at him, giving him the look that he should stop and needs to learn to ignore those people.
"He's right Rick." Deanna said. "Look at these walls, you and your group are safe. Don't worry and please put the guns down now. Nobody is going to hurt you."
Rick nodded and gave his group a sign so they took the weapons down. Daryl gritted his teeth and looked threateningly at the guy. 'We are not finished yet.' He said to himself. "Come with me I'll show you to your new home. But first, we are going to see Olivia."
Rick wondered who Olivia is, but he did not think about it and ran alongside Deanna, followed by his group. A woman came to the group with a small cart as she introduced herself as Olivia and said to Rick's group that they should put the weapons in the cart. Without contradiction, they laid all the weapons in the cart and followed Deanna further towards their new home. "Here it is." She said, and opened the door.
"Dad! It looks like our house but much bigger!" Carl exclaimed in surprise. Everyone's smiling except Daryl, he still has a suspicious face and still doesn't trust this place. They looked around the apartment and even noticed that there is running water and electricity. This place is perfect!
"We should take a shower first and change our clothes." said Glenn with an honest smile on his face. Everyone agreed with him. After they all were finished, they sat together in the kitchen and ate something. They still can't believe it that they found a new place.
Daryl still doesn't want to accept this and locked himself back into a single room in the house. He had to process everything that happened, he had to accept that he didn't have to hunt anymore. He could just as easily take something out of the fridge and no longer have to worry about the water supply.
He's safe.
Beth noticed after a while that Daryl isn't in the kitchen. She stood up and ran up the stairs to look for Daryl when she arrived at a locked door. She knocked and asked, "Daryl, are you in there?" Daryl looked silently at the door, he wanted to be alone. But he stood up and opened the door. "Imma fine, just tired ya know? I need to rest, you too." He said. Beth knows that he was lying. Without saying anything, she hugged him and sighed.
"See ya tomorrow." He gave her in reply and closed the door again. He ran straight to the bed and closed his eyes in a dreamless sleep.
