The Walking Dead Fanfiction - (Spin Off) Bethyl

Anger, Sadness & Guilt

        There was a blanket of silence that covered the group as they walked to the hospital. They were well aware it was a fifty fifty chance of beth surviving. Dary glanced at Maggie who's eyes were bloodshot. Beth was her only sister. She couldn't lose her, not like this. ''Ya'll right?.'' Daryl asked, slowing down to her pace and she just shrugged. ''I'm jus' prayin' to god she's alive.'' Maggie said honestly. ''She's a tough one,'' Daryl said. His blue eyes scanned her sadden face. ''She'll be just fine.'' Maggie's face softened into a smile. ''Hold up,'' Lesley called quietly before glancing at the hospital. ''The main floors are crawling with rotters,'' Lesley loaded her gun and fired it up at the sky. ''What the hell are you doin'?!.'' Rick asked franticly. Lesley looked back with a grin. ''We can't go in, they gotta come out. Get your weapons ready,'' Lesley looked at Rick. ''Ima go there and fire more shots, get em' to come out. Dawns been tryna' get me to come back for a while now. Get them to arrest me, thats when you come out and get them on their knees, ya hear?.'' Lesley was courageous, smart and quick on her feet. Rick watched her closely and as she predicted, a cop car appeared. 

Lesley stopped in front of the car and smirked. ''Well, look what we have here, little Lesley Lerner come back once again.'' The officer smiled. ''Drop your gun and turn around.'' Lesley obeyed as the officers tied her arms tightly. Both officers had their back turned as rick loaded his gun. The two shot around and eyed him. ''Oh look you brought a friend,'' An officer cooed while laughing coldly. Lesley managed to break free of the rope and pull out a knife holding it right up to the cops throat. ''Do as your told or you both die.'' She said firmly. ''Drop your gun.'' The officer shook in fear. ''I said drop it! Now!.'' His gun dropped to the ground. ''Now you,'' She said directed to the other cop. ''Drop it now or he dies.'' She sighed, dropping her weapon to the ground as rick gathered them. Lesley relesed the cop and threw him to his knees. ''You have one of our people, correct?.'' Rick said, aiming his gun at the cops temple. ''We do not-''

''You have beth!.'' He yelled and the cop shut his eyes. ''You are going to help us get her back.'' He said through his teeth, still putting the gun to his temple. Lesley tied their hands behind their back tightly and brought them to their feet, signaling the others to come. She handed the cops to Carol and Sasha before turning back around, firing another shot into the air. ''Go.'' She demanded. The others did as they were told while she waited for the second batch of cops to come. And sure enough they did. They were quick to jump out of the car and point their guns at her. ''I want to propose a deal,'' She started, slowing lowering her weapons to the ground but the cops stayed put. ''We have two of yours, we are willing to make a deal. Yours for ours.'' She said firmly and the cops furrowed their eyebrows. It was quiet for a moment. ''Shoot her-'' One of the cops demanded. Rick gasped as he tried to help her but Daryl held him back. ''She's got this.'' He said and rick nodded.

The cop loaded his gun and Lesley laughed coldly. ''Shoot me, I dare you.''  The moment was intense and the group was on edge, hoping for a turn for the better. Cause this can only end two ways.

''Shoot her damn it!.'' The cop screamed. Her eyes were dark as she looked over Lesley.

''You really wanna shoot Dawn Lerner's sister?,'' Lesley said as she walked closer to the cop. Lesley was fearless. She walked right up to the cop and grabbed his hand and put the gun right under her chin. ''The sister she's been searchin' for since last month?.'' Lesley smiled and narrowed her eyes at him. ''Go, shoot me. You have your chance now go. But know that if you pull that trigger, my sister will feed you to the rotters herself,'' She glanced at the other cop. ''Both of you's.'' The cops hand trembled in hers. ''Now make the choice, are you gunna help us or not.'' It was a moment of pure fear from the group. But Lesley wasn't scared..she didn't fear death as most people do. But the main reason she was so comfortable with a gun ready to send a bullet through her head was because she was doing it for someone else. She knows she did her wrongs, nearly killed someone who meant the world to someone else. What Lesley just did was show she in fact was a good person dispite what had happened.
