*Daryl's pov*
We made it to where they were keeping Sophie and Glenn. It was an old warehouse that looked like it was unfinished. There were trees surrounding it, which is where T-dog was going to hide out.
"You sure your up for this?" Rick asked a nervous looking T-dog. "Yeah." He replied quietly while nodding and then he carefully made his way to his spot. I was worried that he was going to chicken out but we don't have many people to choose from so he would have to do. My attention then turned to Miguel who was looking a little too confident for my liking.

"One wrong move, you get an arrow in the ass, just so you know." I said to him harshly but it didn't seem to sway his expression. "G's gonna take the arrow out of my ass and shove it up yours, just so you know." Miguel replied almost mimicking me.  "G?" Rick asked.

"Guillermo. He's the man here." He replied smugly. "Ok then," Rick said while loading his gun, "lets go see Guillermo."
I nodded and we began to make our way to the front of the building.
My heart began to race. She better be okay.
We climbed through a small gap in the wall and I pushed Miguel in front of us and me and Rick both trained our weapons on him. We carried on walking slowly towards the doors of the building. I scanned the area making sure there were no walkers lurking, surrounding us were half built walls covered in graffiti and all over the floor were piles of rubble. It looked just like the place Merle, and sometimes me, would hang out with his drinking buddies.

The doors of the building were big and almost looked like the doors of a barn. We stood hesitantly in front of them waiting for someone to come out but still making sure our weapons were focused on Miguel. After a few moments the doors opened and a guy wearing a baggy shirt and a chain necklace slowly walked out. This must be Guillermo.
"You ok little man?" He asked looking at Miguel. "They were gonna cut of my feet." Miguel replied sounding a little scared which made me chuckle on the inside, I guess my threat really got to him. "Cops do that?" Guillermo said looking over to Rick who was still dressed in his sheriff uniform, but before Rick could reply Miguel spoke up. "Not him. This redneck prick here," He said turning and gesturing to me, "He cut of some dudes hand. He showed it to me." Miguel continued.
"Shut up!" I yelled at him while moving slightly closer with my crossbow, I was fed up with the talking, I just wanted Soph back.

"Hey!" Some guy yelled while walking out the building with a gun pointed directly at me. "That's that vato right there! The one that shot me in the ass with an arrow!" He continued walking closer to me. I recognised him now, he was the one that was beating me while they took Soph and Glenn. He kept walking towards me but Guillermo put his arm in front of the guy and stopped him. "Chill." He said calmly.

"This true," he continued looking at me, "You want Miguel's feet? That's pretty sick man." I scoffed but before I could reply Rick cut me of.
"We were hoping for a calm discussion." He said.
"That red neck jumps Felipe's little cousin, beats him, threatens to cut of his feet and Felipe gets an arrow in the ass and you want a calm discussion. You fascinate me." Guillermo replied almost mocking Rick. "Heat of the moment. Mistakes were made. On both sides." Was Ricks response which was an understatement. I wouldn't call my little sister getting kidnapped a mistake.

"Who's that dude to you anyway? You don't look related." Guillermo asked Rick while gesturing over to me. "He's one of our group, more or less. I'm sure you have a few like him." Rick replied.
"You got my brother in there?" I asked as calmly as possible. I'd had enough of this, I needed answers, after Merle got of that roof these guys could of picked him up just like they did Sophie.

"Sorry." Guillermo started, "fresh out of white boys. But I got Asian. And a pretty blonde. Interested?"

My whole body tensed up. Just hearing him talk about her made me want to kill him right then and there. I went to yell at him but before I could Rick started, "we have one of yours, you have two of mine. Sounds like an even trade."
"Don't sound even to me." Guillermo said. "G, please come on man!" Miguel pleaded sounding worried. "My people got attacked. Where's the compensation for their pain and suffering? More to the point, where's my bag of guns?" Guillermo continued. He must of been talking about the bag Rick had, back in the alley they tried to take it before I shot the guy in the leg.
