~Chapter 37~

*Jordyn's Point of View*

Today is the day. The day of the slaughter. We are all getting ready for it. The fighters are gonna be fighting, and the others are going to hold this place strong in case there is an outbreak of something. 

After Lizza and Mica, and the Governor, I kind of got used to killing people. I'm not bothered by it anymore. That's the scary part. I don't care about taking away a human's life. It's fine for me. It doesn't sit well, but I can't remove it. 

I hope outta bed a rub my eyes. I use the bathroom and wear my usual style of clothes. I grab a bottle of water and chow down a can of beans for breakfast. I grab my Colt Officer MVP and my knife's and head towards the church where we are going to be going over final rules and stations as well as weapon sorting. I let out a sigh as I walk there. I see Carl and Enid running around as I smile and wave in their direction. 

I ganged up with Abraham as we made dirty jokes walking towards the church. When we reached there, we both nodded to each other and took a deep breath. 

All the fighters were there. Rick was leaned against a wall as everyone else was seated. I gave him a nod as Olivia pulled our gun list. 

I looked over it as I scratched what we needed. 

"Alright, we'll take the two Ak-47's, and the semi-automatics". I stated as everyone agreed with me. 

"And I know how Tara likes her Smith and Wesson's so we're giving her the performance one since she's going to be on watch". I smiled as she threw me a chuckle. 

"Rosita, I'm giving you the Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22. Same goes for Aaron, Sasha, and Abraham". I say as they nod. 

" Me, Rick, Michonne and Daryl"- I said as they looked in my direction as I smirked. "We'll be taking the Colt's". I said as they chuckled. We all prefer the Colts. 

I looked towards the others. "Glenn, Heath, and Aaron, I am assigning you guys the Ump.45's". 

I look towards the people on watch. "Maggie, Carol, and Gabriel, y'all are taking the magnums," I said as they nodded.

 Once that was done, we all loaded in our weapons and stuffed extra ammo in our pockets. I went back to my house, Daryl on my tail, to wrap my stomach up. 

"Whatcha doing"? He asked me as I turned around. 

"I'm finding something to wrap my stomach up". I said as he nodded. We stared at each other for a few seconds but then I went back to looking for a wrap. Once I found it, I attempted putting it on myself, but it didn't work out. 

"Here let me help". Daryl offered as he snatched the wrap. I didn't argue with him as I lift my shirt up so he could wrap it around me. Every touch gave me goosebumps, and every move gave me chills. When he was done, I rapidly pulled my shirt down and gave him a half-smile and an eye roll. 

"Thanks". I said as I left the room, grabbing my weapons. I had one thought in my mind as I hopped into the RV with the rest of them. 

I am not dying today. 

*5 hours later* 

We made it. We are here, at the Sanctuary. We got really lost thanks to Alex, and then we had to wait for night to fall. Maggie, Tara, Gabriel, and Carol all took their spots in the watch. I and the rest of them were behind the Sanctuary, which was a satellite tower. I reviewed with them the plan once more as I looked over to Daryl. He looked at me. He was scared. 

"Don't die". He said as I nodded. Rick motioned for us to slit the guard's throats. I gulped as I sneaked behind them and slit the guard's throat. Blood splattereed in my face. I never smelt blood this bad, but I guess it the baby. 

Before we all go into our positions, Daryl gave me a hug, and a kiss on the cheek. It was to quick for me to pull away, so I stood there. 

I didn't want to seem weak and forgive him and hug him back. So I just stood there. Then, I patted his back and we all went into motion. 

Throats were slit, heads were chopped, people were shot, but in the end, we were all safe and alive. Glenn told me that he saw polaroid pictures of people with their heads smashed in. like a baseball game went wrong. 

I didn't believe him at first until he showed me the pictures. 

We ran into some trouble with the rest of them, some took Maggie and Carol, but luckily we got them back. All of us, alive, piled into the RV and began our journey home. 

When we got home, I was so tired, I could barely stand. I walked up those flights of stairs and planted myself on the couch. 

*Daryl's Point of View*

Jordyn didn't look so well today. I keep debating if I should go and check up on her, or if I should just leave her be. I finally decided I should go and check up on her. 

I walked up to my place, but instead of going to the right, I went to the left. I mumbled some stuff under my breath and knocked on the door three times

 "Who is it"? I heard Jordyn grumble from the couch. 

"Its Daryl". I said as I heard her footsteps leave the couch and walk up to the door. She opened it halfway as she nodded. 

"You good"? She asked me. I looked at her face. I miss her. I miss her o much. 

"Yeah. Didn't look so good today. Wanted to make sure you were good"? I asked her as she nodded. 

"Okay....good night". She said as she was about to close to the door. I stopped it halfway and leaned against the door frame. Jordyn looks confused. 

I couldn't help myself. I need her. 

I leaned down to her height, and wrapped my hand around her cheek, and kissed her lips gently. Once we let go, I looked back up to her eyes, admiring her beauty,. 

"Good night". I said as I left the door frame. As I walked the few steps back to my place across the hall, I smirked and smiled to myself. 

Despite the killing, and all the blood, and Maggie and Carol, I would say today isn't a bad day.
