Days Gone By (Daryl Dixon love story)

Days Gone By Chapter One

I made my way through the mass of abandoned cars on the highway, heading towards the houses I could see in the distance. I sighed and hitched my back pack higher on to my shoulders, my t-shirt sticking to my back. Maybe if I'm lucky one of the houses might still have a working shower, yeah right. After walking for about twenty minutes I finally made it to the houses, I walked along the streets trying to find a house that would be secure enough for the night when suddenly I heard movement up ahead, dropping down behind a car I reached behind me and pulled my baseball bat out of the top of my bag, staying low I crawled along behind the cars and looked over the hood of one, not too far up the street I could see one of those things, in a hospital gown, staggering around in the middle of the street.

It was only one but I didn't really fancy it roaming around while I was trying to have my beauty sleep, I stood up and started to creep up behind it with my6 bat raised ready to bash its head in........and then I stood on some broken glass, I grimaced and groaned inwardly as the thing turned around.......

"What are you doing?" It asked in a raspy voice and I dropped the bat in shock.

"Your not dead!" 

The man gave me a puzzled look and glanced down at the bat, he took a couple of steps back clearly thinking I was unhinged.

"No I'm not dead, that's why I'm walking around" He replied slowly.

"Oh my god, you have no idea what's going on do you" I replied amazed.

"No...I woke up in the hospital.....there were bodies everywhere.....what the hell happened?"

"It's not what happened, it's what's happening" I answered "Look I know this is going to sound completely mental but their was some kind of a......outbreak and people just started going mad and attacking people....bitting them, then the people they attacked got sick and died....but they didn't stay dead, they got up and started to attack people too.....and.......well to put it simply your the first person I've seen in a couple of weeks".

The man just stared at me with a blank expression.

"Look, I know it's a lot to take in bu......"

"I've go to get home" He interupted me.

"What?"

"I've got to go and see my family" He turned and started to stagger up the street.

I stood there for a few minutes debating what to do.

"Wait, I'll help you, your not going to get very far on your own" I jogged and caught up with him "What's your name?".

"Rick Grimes"

"Well nice to meet you Rick Grimes, I'm Raylan Stuart"
