Inside the operating room, Dr. Edwards examined Beth's wound in her neck. He realized this wasn't what he expected to see at all. The bullet didn't graze her throat, instead fragments were spread all throughout. He hooked her up to an IV, along with a heart monitor. Her blood pressure was dropping way below what he would have liked it to be. Beth was dozing in and out of consciousness, and finally the heart monitor no longer had a steady rhythm. Beth had flatlined, her heart had stopped.

"No! Dammit!" Dr. Edwards shouted as he climbed on top of the gurney and began pumping on Beth's chest in a panic.

He pointed to one of the women he had been using as nurses since the world had gone to shit and yelled at her, "You! Come over here and keep pressure on her wound while I give her CPR!"

The nurse obeyed, but there was still no sign of a heartbeat...

Beth's POV:

Beth felt like she was floating on a cloud. She felt light, new, and fresh. She opened her eyes and took in her surroundings. She saw nothing but white. White walls, white floors, and white ceilings. She sat up from where she had been laying and stood. She saw a man walking towards her, she squinted to try and make out who it was, but everything was too bright.

"Bethy," the man whispered once he had reached her.

"Daddy!" Beth exclaimed as she jumped into his arms. He looked exactly how he looked on the farm. He had both of his legs and he looked healthy as ever.

She then realized what was happening. She remembered what she had said to Dawn. She remembered stabbing her, but after that everything went black. She panicked at the thought of dying.

"Daddy, am I dying?" Beth asked softly. "Is this Heaven?"

Hershel nodded. "But you don't have to stay, Bethy. You can choose. You have the will to fight that I always knew was within you. You can choose to stay with your sister. The group. Daryl."

Her face lit up at the mention of Daryl. Hershel chuckled, "I've seen it all watching over you, Bethy. You love him. And he loves you too. You both have my blessing."

Beth began to tear up, but Hershel wiped them away. "Don't cry dearheart. You won't hurt my feelings by leaving, Bethy. Daryl needs you. Your sister needs you. Judy needs you. Now get back down there."

Beth nodded and hugged her father one last time. She kissed him on the cheek, "I love you, father."

"I love you too, sweetheart." Hershel kissed her one last time and walked away.

BACK IN THE O.R:

Dr. Edwards pointed to another nurse, "You! Get me the defibrillator! Now!"

The nurse did as she was told and prepared the paddles for Dr. Edwards to use. "Charging to 200 volts," she told him as he began to press the paddles into Beth's chest. Beth's body jumped up from the electric shock, but nothing.

Dr. Edwards was even more worried, but he wasn't giving up. "Charge to 300!" He shouted.

"Charging to 300 volts. Clear!" The nurse yelled, and she saw Beth's body jump from the shock, but still nothing.

"Dr. Edwards, I don't think she's coming back.." The nurse began to say.

"Shut up! She will! Just fucking charge it to 400!" He screamed.

The nurse recoiled from his tone, but turned back to the defibrillator. "Charging to 400 volts. Clear!" This was their last chance. Beth's body jerked from the electric shock once more, and that seemed to do the trick. The heart monitor began to have a steady rhythm again, and Dr. Edwards let out a slow, shaky breath.

"Thank you for coming back, Beth." He whispered.

He noticed how pale she looked and knew that it was from the blood loss, and knew her blood pressure was still low. He then turned to the nurse, "Give her 10cc's of Vasopressin, that should bring her blood pressure back up a bit. Then go ask everyone in the group what their blood type is, and start drawing. Her blood type is A positive. Get all the blood you can. We're going to need it."

The nurse nodded and Dr. Edwards began to operate on Beth's wound on her neck.

The nurse walked out of the operating room, and Daryl was up before anyone else.

"How is she?" Daryl asked in a panicked tone.

The nurse held up her hands, "She's stable for now, but we're still not out of the clear. We need blood donations. Beth is A positive. Who can donate?"

Maggie and Tara stood up. "I have the same blood type as my sister. Take all that you need." Maggie said.

The nurse then looked at Tara. "I have A positive just like Beth and Maggie. Take all that you need too, I just want to help."

The two went to follow the nurse, but Maggie could see Daryl crying in his corner and she went to kneel down beside him. She placed her hand on his back, "It's going to be okay, Daryl. Beth is pulling through. We're going to give her the help she needs. She needs you to be strong for her right now."

Daryl wiped his eyes, took a deep breath, and nodded his head. Maggie kissed him on the head and walked over to the two ladies who were waiting on her to follow them.

Dr. Edwards successfully removed all the fragments from Beth's neck, and to his surprise, she was looking better. He had seriously doubted his ability to save her, but somehow by the grace of God he did. He sewed up Beth's neck, and gave her the blood transfusions. Now it was just a waiting game, but her blood pressure had elevated tremendously and that's what counted.
