What are we? (Daryl x reader (semi-rewrite of the original))

Chapter 6~~Lost

We ran to the building where Merle was left, doing our best to avoid Walkers.

"What if we split up? A couple of us go for the guns and a couple for Merle" Rick asked

"Not wort' it. We'r better off toget'er" I replied "better chance ye know?"

Everybody nodded in agreement "Okay Y/N"

I held my knife inclosed in my hand, watching.

"Y'all 'eady?" Daryl asked as we came close to the building. We all nodded.

We ran to the roof, and I noticed no walkers, with some dead dead ones, and some blood on the floor as we went up the stairs. We got there and the roof was empty.

"no! No!" I heard Daryl say over and over until he picked something up.

Merle's hand.

This brought an outburst from Daryl. We gave him time to calm down. All I wanted to do was run over to him and hug him.

I began following the blood trail I saw. I knew the others were following me by the sounds of their foot steps. When I got to the end I found iron with burned flesh. I froze in my steps.

"He cauterized it" was the last thing I said before I fell.

I woke up in Daryl's tent. I sat up and head began pounding "o' lord what 'appened"

"Yer awake" Daryl had a slight smile before he engulfed me in a hug. "I wis' I coulda made t'is easier for ye"

"Did ye find Merle?" But by the look on Daryl's face I could tell that they Hadn't. I hugged him tighter "I'm so sorry dar"

"Anyway, we are leavin'. When we got 'ome the camp was bein' attacked by walkers."

"Where are we going?"

"Rick wan's to go to the CDC"

"We can't"

"We can't argue 'im on t'is. I'm sorry Y/N" he kissed my forehead. "Let's get packed, ok?"

I nodded as we began packing everything.

•Flashback the night before the run•

"Daryl, what'd you do 'fore all this?"

"Ye've asked this before. i did mechanical stuff" He looked at me "'ow 'bout ye?"

"I worked for the CDC. My coworker made this when I was overseas." 

He just looked at me, shocked.

"No. I don't know how to fix this"

*fin*

I stared out the window as we went to an all to familiar place. When I saw the building I looked to Daryl, scared of what was to come. Next I saw the familiar military vehicles. We came to a stop.

I grabbed my backpack that had weapons, my badge, medications, and a few little things that might come in handy. I took my badge out and put it around my neck. I stopped the group before we went up.

"I should have told y'all sooner. I worked here prior. I don't know how to stop it but I will warn you that if there is anyone left inside, they may not be willing to let us in. That's where this-" I held up my badge "-comes into play. Let me do the talking."

Shane wanted to say something but I just walked up to the  doors before he could say anything. I watched for walkers. There were a lot of dead military around.

I held my badge up to the camera. "I don't know who or if anyone's left but you better let me in. I use this key if you don't let me in peacefully." The camera moved but the doors did.

I got ready to scan my key "just remember I do this and your loosing your safety"

I felt the groups eyes on me before I heard rick say "Y/N. Walkers are coming"

I nodded and just as I scanned my keycard the door opened. I rushed everyone in before seeing Dr. Jenner.

"Good job dumbass. You know my key won't shut this"

He shook his head before shutting the door. "Never thought I'd see you again. I heard you ran from helping your country"

I chucked "I wasn't about to die with some dumbasses who were half assing everything" I told him as I lead my group to the elevators.

I looked around "none of y'all are claustrophobic, right? We're going underground. Jenner, How much time?"

"48 hours but you probably just screwed that over"

"Oh quit being pissy towards me. If you want a pissing match I'll beat ya. Just like every time when we first started working together. Isn't that they sent me overseas? Because I advanced so much quicker than you?" I smirked before leading everyone onto the elevator as I picked up Sophia.

I noticed Daryl look at me with a smirk as the elevator went down. Then I noticed Carol start to slightly panic. I put my arm around her "it's ok. We will be safe. We will be out of here soon"

She smiled and nodded before taking Sophia from me and setting her down.

The elevator stopped and we got off. I took a deep breath before stepping out.

"Ok. There are extra rooms down that hallway and there are showers at the way end." Jenner said "the doors are marked and I imagine Y/N remembers her room. We will have a special dinner tonight"

I rolled my eyes as I lead the group down the hall. I found my room at the very end by the showers. Just as I left it. I walked over to my closet. A couple clothes and even one of my dresses. I found my secret cabinet and opened it.

I smiled as I pulled pictures of the kids I helped around the world and then finally a picture of my parents. I smiled but then I heard my door open and I quickly put my pictures back in the box

"Ye ok?" Daryl asked

"I's jus' ye" I calmed down and showed him the box as I said, "I'm jus' lookin' at some ol' pictures"

"T'is is w'at ye did?"

I nodded "I wou'd 'ravel an' meet t'e kids I 'elped" then I showed him the picture of my family and pointed at each person "t'ats my Dad. 'E taug't me te s'oot an' 'e was in t'e Marines. 'E was called te war w'en I was 14 an' 'e never made it 'ome. T'is is my Mom. W'en I was 20 s'e los' 'er battle wit' cancer. An' t'is is my Baby Brother Jared. 'E got dad's genes of t'e red hair an' grew up to be a marine like our dad. I was 12 in t'is picture and 'e was 8. My parents 'ad me w'en t'ey were in 'ighsc'ool, t'en waited to 'ave Jared tell after"

He hugged me awkwardly. "T'ank ye fer tellin' me"

"it's nice talk in' 'bout t'em" I smiled "did ye find a room or are ye stayin' in 'ere?"

"Only if it's fine wit' ye" I smiled bigger when he said that and i just slightly jumbled into him, which cause us to fall flat on the floor. I laughed and he chuckled before I kissed him.
