The adrenaline filled his body while he started running to Rick, Beth and the others.  He can't believe the crowd running through Alexandria.
'Don't want someone dying' he thought and ran faster. "Rick over here!" he yelled while he took his crossbow and shot a walker down.
"Beth, Carl! Get 'n the house! Rick what happened?!" He asked and killed another walker. Daryl looked at the kids to see if they are  safe or need any help. "They're fine." Rick said and nods to him. "We need to close the gate, Gabriel forgot to close it! I think there's at least 30 walkers left to kill."
-
"Are you with me?" Daryl hesitated for a moment and looked at him before he nodded in agreement. The two men continued running to Olivia to get into the armory. "Where are the others? "Daryl asked the sheriff. "Don't know. It happens so fast, I-.."
Rick stopped and looked at the right side. One of the people from Alexandria screamed, a walker bit him right on his neck. Rick reacted rapidly and took his gun out from his Holster and shot the walker to the ground. He couldn't put the bitten man down himself, Daryl knew that, he pats his shoulder and walked to the man on the ground who's suffering. "I'm sorry bro." he said and and took Rick's gun. "Just do it. I wouldn't turn. Please."  Daryl looked at him silently and pulled the trigger. They lost another guy from the group.
He no longer moved.
"Rick c'mon. Hurry." He said and reaching his hand to him. Rick nodded and ran with him to Olivia. When they were finally there, they took some weapons and ran back to the horde of walkers.
"Keep safe." Rick told him softly. Everybody could see the worry. That he is worried.  Daryl promised to himself that he'd kick Gabriel's ass once this was all over. Daryl took a deep breath and killed the walkers with the others.
He counted 30.
"How many?!" he yelled and ran straight to the gate. Suddenly a walker behind him threw him on the ground and tried to bite him on his neck.
---
"RICK H--"  He yelled, trying to get his knife to handle it by himself but he couldn't. The walker was too heavy blocked him from getting his knife. Only five centimeters between Daryl's neck and the walker had it's way. "RICK!"
--
Daryl really thought that he was going to die.
'ain't afraid of nothing'
But in the same moment when he no longer had any power left in his arms, Rick finally put his knife into the walker's skull and took Daryl's hand. "There are only 8 walkers left! You alright? Are you bit?" Rick asked and looked on Daryl's hands, neck, and arms. "Jeez" was the only word that the hunter could say. "I'm fine. Go. Close the gate, I'll cover ya." he said while he was loading his gun. Rick nodded and ran straight to the gate. As he finally closed it, Daryl killed the last walker. "We did it." he said and put his hand on Daryl's shoulder. Daryl smiled gently and looked around. "Are the kids safe?" He asked, his voice shaking as he remebered Carl and Beth. Daryl didn't waste a second and started looking for them.
"Carl! Beth! Where are ya!?"
Carl opened the door and nodded. "We're okay, Daryl. Don't worry. You okay too?" He asked and walked towards him. When Rick arrived, he took Carl and hugged him tight. "Is the gate closed?" Beth asked and walked over to them. Daryl was glad that both of them were okay. Daryl nodded and flung his crossbow over his shoulder. Rick lower his gun and walked into the house to check on the baby and take some rest. Daryl was proud of him, he saved him again. 3 times he counted.
"We should bring all the bodies to one place, right? " Carl asked and looked to the archer for an answer. Beth nodded and walked over to the gate. Daryl wanted to say 'no' but both of them were right, so he followed them. As they arrived, they saw that some people dragged some bodies into a pile to burn them later. "Let's go." he said and dragged one body by the feet. "I'll help you." Beth said and helped him. As they walked to the others, both of them didn't notice that one of the walkers wasn't dead, only shot in the shoulder.  As they put the zombie on the ground and turned back to take the next one, the walker grabbed Beth from the foot, causing her to fall down. Daryl couldn't react, it went so fast.
---
As he turned around, he heard Beth scream in pain. The walker bit down on her neck. It was over for her, Daryl lost again one of his family members.
Again.
"NO. " he screamed while pulling out his knife. He killed the walker in the blink of an eye and shoved the dead body off of Beth. She lost so much blood in such little time. Daryl couldn't belive what just happened. He could feel a deep black hole in his body.
Loneliness.
That was it, he only noticed hot tears  flowing out from his eyes. Beth did not breathe, and he knew what he had to. He swallowed his emotions and gripped the knife tightly in his hand. "Beth ... I ... I'm...".
Rick was behind him, Daryl noticed his presence. "Daryl, I .. Let me do it if you can't." Was the only thing he could say. He knelt down next to him and looked deep into his eyes. "I can handle it!" He hissed and sunk the blade of the knife into Beth's skull. Rick tried to comfort him, his brother. But Daryl denied the offer once again. He stood up with the lifeless body that once belonged to his friend, and walked off to a place to bury her. He would never accept it if someone even mentioned that Beth  was to be burned on the pile. She deserves a grave.
"I don't want to feel this pain anymore." he said and took the shovel.
