CHAPTER 1: AIN´T RISKING OUR ASSES
Daryl´s Pov:
"We ain´t risking our asses again, baby bro!" Merle explained "especially not hers" he stated looking through the rear view mirror of the van to the sleeping form of our baby sister.
"It may be best for her" I replied "the camp may be safe"
"And the people?" He retorted "we dunno what kinda people we are gonna find there. We can´t trust in anyone anymore. We never could!"
"Not all people are bad!" I said a bit louder than before careful not to wake Dee up "Tommy was good."
"Tommy was an exception but we dunno these people." He replied.
"Let´s give ´em a chance we won´t let them get close to her till we know what kinda people they are. They may be the family we always wanted for her to grow up with." I told him.
"That whatcha want!" he shouted.
Dee whined and opened her blue-green-brown eyes a little bit. I turned to face her
"Shhhh lil fighter get back to sleep Merly didn´t want ta wake ya up" I whispered soothingly.
"Sorry lil ass-kicker" Merle apologized
She nodded and closed her gorgeous eyes and 2 seconds later we heard her breathing even out as sleep once again claimed her tiny body.
"See whatcha did?" –I scolded my brother
"Look! I know ya always wanted her ta grow up in a family, unlike ours. But we are her family now and we cannot risk starting over again. We just left shithead back there!" He stated.
"And if he comes back?" I questioned.
"If he comes back, and that's a big if, we will throw him to the brainless" he said
I pulled the van to a stop at the camp and climbed out, grabbing my crossbow and a squirming Dee from the back seat.
"Shhhh princess. It's ok. It's Boo." I whispered
She groaned and rested her head on my shoulder.
Grabbing her bag from the trunk we headed towards the camp.
"Hey baby bro!" Merle called "pass her ta me. Ya need both hands ta handle the bow but I just need one for my gun."
I nodded allowing Merle to take Diana from me adjusting her to his sit on his waist.
"Merly?" she question her voice laced with tiredness.
"It´s me lil ass-kicker now be a good girly and don´t look back. Ok?" He told her.
"k" She said.
Then she noticed me "hey Boo" she greeted with a huge smile.
"Hello lil fighter" I smiled back
"Where we going?" she asked
"Uh… ehh…" Merle and I stuttered in unison.
"Far far away from the shithead, baby sis, far far away." Merle answered finally
"Hello" a black haired man said gaining our attention." The names Shane. Shane Walsh." He said raising his hand out in a way of introduction.
Merle grunted pointing the gun at the man and holding Dee closer to him "Shhhh don´t move" he whispered to her. As I pointed my bow at the man and cautiously stepped forward to defend my baby sister if anything happened.
"Hey, hey!" Shane said lifting his hands to the air in an attempt to show he meant no harm. "I'm not a threat! I ain´t hurting ya! I aint gonna hurt ya! Who are ya?"
"I'm Daryl Dixon" I said defensively stepping in front of Merle.
"Merle Dixon" he grunted.
"And this lil one here?" he asked pointing to Dee.
"It ain´t none of yer business"- Merle spat turning around to hide and protect her from his sight.
"Oh, ok" he stuttered.
"Merle, put the gun down!" I ordered him whilst putting my bow down.
"No" he retorted
"Are there more people there?" I asked suspiciously indicating towards the camp.
"Y…Yes" he answered, intimidated by Merle "follow me"
"Ya dun give us orders" Merle said more suspiciously than I did.
"C´mon" Shane said to me "I'll introduce ya to the rest of the group. He can stay here if he wants."
I nodded. But Dee soon started crying "no Boo! Dun go! Please don't leave me Boo! Please stay"
"I'll be back, warrior princess, don't you worry about that" I assured her kissing her forehead "stay here with Merly. Make sure he behaves. Okay"
She nodded burying her face in to Merle´s shoulder
I knew she hated when we became separated. When me and Merle had to leave her in the daycare to go hunting, at first she started crying and trying to follow us. Then Tommy arrived. Tommy Johnson was the director of Dee´s daycare. He was also my best childhood friend. He was great with Dee. She adored him. So we left knowing she would be fine and looked after till we picked her up.
Shane directed me to a crowd of people.
They looked good. There were women and children maybe they were the group we wanted. No needed.
"This is Carl" Shane pointed to a young boy that looked a little older than Dee "his mother, Lori" He pointed to a brown haired woman.
"Carol, Sophia and Ed Pelletier" he pointed at a family. The man had a dangerous look in his eyes a look of hatred and pure evil. Similar to the look in the eye of the disgrace I called father.
"Amy, Andrea, the Morales family, Jim, t-dog, Jackie, dale, and Glenn" he pointed to everyone receiving a wave or in some cases a nod.
I nodded taking in all the names.
"This is Daryl Dixon" Shane introduced "he came with his brother and… niece?"
I shook my head "sister" I said
"Oh! Sorry" Shane apologized as he lead me away with him "Merle doesn´t seem like much of a talker"
I shrugged
"If ya guys want to take a tent, you are free to do so there´s an empty one over there" he said indicating to an empty tent.
"Okay" I said as I walked towards my siblings.
Merle was sat in the floor with Dee sitting on his legs. He was holding her tight as I got closer I could see she was crying. I ran over.
"What´s wrong?" I asked
"Merl…y says there… there are monster…monsters that ki…kill p …eo…ple" she sobbed in Merle´s arms.
Her beautiful three-colored eyes were full of tears. Her hypnotizing big eyes. Those eyes lasted in your mind forever. No one had forgotten those special eyes.
I looked judgingly at my brother "it´s the best explication I could give her" he stated matter of factley.
"But they ain´t getting ya, we promise ya we ain´t letting anything happens to ya" I promised.
"Pinkie Promise?" she asked giving us her little fingers
Merle and I looked at each other and nodded crossing our fingers with her "Pinkie promise" We replied in unison.
She sighed.
"Go to the van where we can see ya, in the front seats" Merle told her "Boo and I have things ta talk ´bout".
I stood up and held her hands to pull her up. I went with her to the van, grabbed her teddy bear, and gave it to her so she didn´t feel lonely and then I closed the van door and headed back to Merle..
"How´s the people?" he asked
"Not bad, but there is this guy that don't look to good" I reported back
"What if he gets her?" I questioned
"We won´t let him get close of her. We won´t put our guard down."
"Hmmm…."
"There´s an empty tent for us and there´s food. I dun want to eat squirrels, that it´s the only thing we will find, for the rest of our lives!"
"Okay, but remember this: if anything, ANYTHING, happens to her, every fucking time something happens to her, I'll punch ya twice, TWICE, YA HEAR!?"
He grew closer to me, with a threatening look he grabbed my shirt. "DO YOU HEAR" I nodded
"Now, let´s get settled" he said walking towards the van. He scooped Dee up from the seat and told her something. He put her down as she came running to me. I lifted her up
"What did Merly tell ya, baby?" I asked her
"That ya´re warned and that I had to go with ya" she said as she rested her head on my shoulder.
I started off towards the tent Shane pointed out to me before.
There were sleeping bags in the corner. I put Dee down and started opening the sleeping bags.
Merle arrived with Dee´s and his bags.
"Where´s my bag?" I asked
"In the van" he answered "I ain´t carrying it. I'm not an ass."
"Where´s Tommy?" Dee asked before I could reply
"Dunno" Merle said "I dunno if he´s even still alive"
I could see how Dee´s eyes filled with tears and she began to cry
"You stupid ass!2 I told him as I went to Dee and hugged her.
"It´s the truth" he said
"We had always pushed her away from the truth!" I said rocking my baby sister "Shhhh, princess, Merly didn´t mean that"
"Tommy dead!" she screamed
"No! No, listen" Merle took Dee from me and laid her in his arms "he may be alive, girly, but we dunno for sure. I dun wanna give ya false hopes."
She buried her face in Merle´s chest and sobbed as they hugged- "go grab yer things"- he told me
I went to my van and grabbed my bag. I turned back to the tent to find Merle had put his and Dee´s sleeping bags out. Dee was drawing something on some paper on hers. She would be sleeping between Merle and I. And Merle was searching for something in his bag,
"Hey lil bro" he turned to me "put yer sleeping bag out, I need ta drink "water"" he used the quotation marks in "water", as he showed me a small Vodka bottle in his pocket and smirked to me. Then he kneeled beside Dee "ya stay with Boo. I'll be back in a lil while" he kissed the top of her head.
"Don't go mad with it" I whispered him as he shook his head and walked out the tent.
Merle and I had an agreement ´bout the things we could do and could not close to Dee:
THINGS ALLOWED: insult our father, aka shithead.
THINGS NOT ALLOWED: drink (alcohol, obviously), drugs, smoke, bitches, bad words, dirty things, steal, yell, fight, pornography.
Merle and me grew up with all the NOT ALLOWED and didn´t have fun. We wanted Dee to have everything we didn't. We strictly carried out the agreement.
