Chapter 12

Over the next day and a half, the group scavenges around for cars, gas and supplies. They pack up the prison and load everything into the 4 cars they end up taking.
———
The next day they all wake up to a beautiful, shinning and quiet sunrise. Daryl is standing by the window when Nëraid comes up next to him.
"So whose Leo?" He raised an eyebrow at her.
Her cheeks flushed and he grinned.

"One of my many friends I haven't seen in 3 years."

"Friends?" Daryl questioned.

She playfully punched his arm which he then wrapped around her and pulled her close to him. She smiled and sighed into him.

"I swear to god if you leave again I'm gonna kill ya myself." Daryl laughed before kissing the top of her head.

"I'm not going anywhere, I promise."

He smiled and continued to watch the sunrise.
All of a sudden Nëraid stiffened under his arm.

"What's wrong?"

"Somethings not right..." she muttered before bolting down the stairs and towards the cells.

"Nëraid?" Daryl called and followed after her.

She ran to Nico's cell and shook him awake frantically. She had a wild look in her eyes.

"Nëraid what the hell-" Nico looked into her eyes and he stopped. "What's wrong."

"I can sense danger...I have a bad feeling."

"Where?"

"Looking out the window of the perch."

He nodded silently and got up and started walking to the perch.

"Wake Annabeth." He said behind his shoulder.

Nëraid jogged to the cell next door and this time gently shook her awake.

"Morning." She yawned sleepily before rolling over.

"Annabeth it's bad."

She sat up quickly.

"Perch. Nico's there."

She instantly got up and ran to the perch, Nëraid followed.

Daryl eventually caught up to them on his perch. Annabeth reached out and put her hand on the window. She recoiled instantly.

"You're right...somethings off." Annabeth said quietly.

A few moments later they heard gun shots in the prison yard.
The quad ran down and grabbed their own weapons before running outside to see a group of people cutting into the fence and coming into the yard. They looked heavily stocked.

"Shit." Daryl muttered.

Rick appeared with Glenn, Maggie, Beth and Hershel.

"What- Glenn, Maggie; take tower one. Beth and Daryl, tower two."

They all nodded and headed to their towers.
