Trixie and Daryl were pacing back and forth on the side of Cell Block C now, Trixie was wringing her hands and Daryl was chewing on his thumb as they thought about what they had found out. Exposed, sounded like such a nasty word yet Hershel was right, they both had been exposed to the sickness in the block. Even for a small amount of time both Daryl and Trixie's hands were red with the infected blood of the sick from the cell block. Rick had already went out to talk to Carl, Maggie and Michonne as they walked back to the Cell Block D but Trixie was kept back as she mentioned going to see Hunter. Rick had sent Carl off though to get Merle, who had apparently stayed in the cell block to protect Beth and the babies, so now she was waiting. Daryl wasn't good at waiting as he watched Trixie pacing back and forth, forth and back, side to side and driving him nuts.

"Calm down will ya!" Trixie shot a nasty glare to Daryl, immediately, and he recoiled.

"Damn little brother, what did you do to piss off girly now?" Trixie sighed, relief that Merle was finally there but held her hands out to warn him to stay away.

"Not now Merle. Stay there, don't come within six feet. You cant get infected."

"Infected? You bit!" Merle was about to run over to them now before Trixie immediately pulled her rifle over her shoulder and made him stop.

'No! No….no Merle we're not bit but….dammit." Daryl sighed, seeing how hard it was for her to explain so he spit it out.

"Cell Block D was attacked, Patrick and Charlie died from a flu virus that struck fast and hard. Patrick turned, attacked the block. Anyone in there has a chance of getting sick." Merle relaxed a bit now, stepping back and watching Trixie relax as she put her rifle down and frowned, tears brimming her eyes.

"What's that got to do with me little brother?" Trixie sighed then, wiping at her eyes and shaking her head.

"Dear god Merle, as if we would ever ask you to do this, but it will be good practice. You got to watch Hunter with Beth for us. Until we know who is and isn't sick, we cant be in the same block as him." Merle seemed to understand then, nodding as he crossed his arms and glanced between the two.

"That why they having a council meeting?" Trixie glanced to Daryl as he nodded.

"Rick and Hershel wants to talk. Just gonna be us for now, don't want to spread the cold if we got it." Merle nodded, then glanced between the two. Shuffling his feet he sighed before frowning slightly and then pointing to them with his three good fingers.

"You two better take care of each other. I don't want to have to burry either of ya, ya hear!" Trixie grinned, sadly, as Daryl nodded then dipped his head a bit in appreciation to his brother before taking Trixie's hand and leading her back into the cell block.

"Don't worry, Hunter will be fine." Trixie rolled her eyes, nodding as she wiped at them again, smearing blood all over her face from her hands.

"I know, I'm more worried about Merle. Has he ever changed a diaper?" Daryl chuckled then, chewing on his lip as the two of them made their way to the council room and met Carol outside the door.

"Hey." Trixie nodded, feeling Carol immediately wrap her in a hug as Hershel and Glenn headed their way.

"Lets go in and talk." The girls nodded to Glenn, Daryl letting them go in first, before following and shutting the door behind him.

"Its gonna be alright, I promise. We're fine." Trixie nodded again, sniffling as she sat next to Carol and Daryl sat behind her, turning his chair backwards before leaning his chin on Trixie's shoulder.

"What are we gonna do?" Sasha glanced to Hershel as everyone tried to figure out an answer.

"This sickness, it hits hard and fast right?" Hershel nodded to Trixie as he answered her question and Carol sighed.

"Patrick was fine yesterday. And he died, overnight. Two people died that quick? We'll have to separate everyone that's been exposed." Everyone glanced to Carol as she searched their faces.

"That's everyone in that cellblock." Trixie ran her hand over Daryl's leg behind her, frowning at the truth he spoke. "That's all of us, maybe more."

"We know that this sickness can be lethal. We don't know how easily it spread. Is anyone else showing symptoms that we know of?"

"We cant just wait and see Hershel, I mean there's children. It isn't just the illness. If people die they become a threat."

"We need a place for the sick to go. Another cell block." They nodded to Trixie as she glanced up to them.

"We can use A. We cant risk going back in D and cleaning it up."

"Death row? Not sure that's much of an upgrade." Glenn glanced to Carol, as if he was challenging her.

"Its clean, that's an upgrade." Trixie nodded now, agreeing with Daryl as Carol held a smug look on her face. Glancing to Glenn Trixie hoped something wouldn't start right here and now due to high tensions as Daryl glanced to Hershel. "Think that would work for Dr. S?"

"I'll talk to Caleb. Get it set up." Trixie nodded, finally feeling like they were getting somewhere when everyone heard someone coughing from the hallway and they all flinched. Moving out of their seats they made it to the door as Tyreese and Karen were walking by, Karen was coughing badly.

"You okay?" Tyreese was beside Karen, an arm around her shoulders as she nodded.

"I'm fine."

'You sure?" Tyreese and Karen paused at the corner of the hall now, turning to see Carol glaring almost at them while the others stepped out from behind her. "You don't sound so good."

"We're just taking her back to my cell so she can rest." Hershel sighed, shaking his head to Tyreese.

"Tyreese, I don't think that's such a good idea."

'Why, what's going on now?" Karen glanced between her boyfriend and the group as Glenn sighed.

"We think it's a flu or something. That's how Patrick died."

"Judith and Hunter are in that cell block, they are vulnerable. Anyone that may be sick or even exposed should stay away." Trixie bit her bottom lip hard as Hershel mentioned Hunter and Judith and them maybe catching the flu but Karen seemed more shocked than anyone.

"It killed Patrick?" Everyone nodded as Tyreese shook his head, glancing between Karen and the group.

"Shes gonna be ok. Now that we know what Patrick died from we can treat it right?"

"Now don't panic, we're gonna figure this out. But we should keep you separated in the meantime. We'll have Caleb take a look at you and I'll see what we have in the way of medications." Karen nodded, her hand at her throat as she turned and glanced up to Hershel.

"David. From the Decatur group, he's been coughing too." Everyone glanced to each other as Glenn moved from off the wall he was leaning against.

"I'll get him. There's some empty clean cells in the tombs right?"

"Yeah, we'll meet you there." Sasha walked over to Karen and Tyreese as Glenn walked off and smiled to her. "Okay, come on. Lets get you settled."

"We have to call another meeting later Hershel." He nodded to Trixie as Tyreese watched Karen being lead away by Sasha. "We got to figure out what to do, we cant just…."

"No we wont. We will figure this out." Tyreese stared to the group, making them nod while he walked off towards the direction Sasha and Karen went, as Daryl tapped Hershel's shoulder.

"I'll get to burying the dead ones."

"You wear gloves and a mask." Daryl nodded, watching Hershel follow behind Tyreese now before turning to the girls.

"Yall alright?" Trixie glanced up to Daryl, sighing as Carol shook her head, pinching the bridge of her nose.

"I'm worried about Mika and Lizzie, they were around Patrick. And Merle is left alone with the babies now."

"Hey, he will be fine. Don't worry too much. Besides we all were around Patrick. Karen and David are gonna be separated till they feel better. Then we'll be fine." Carol nodded, gazing to Daryl as he glanced between her and the quite Trixie.

"You're right. Are you ok?" Daryl grinned, nodding to Carol before turning to leave.

"Got to be." Trixie sighed, glancing to Carol before starting to follow Daryl.

"Its gonna be ok Carol, once we get rid of the sickness, the prison will go back to normal." Carol nodded, watching Trixie exit then turning to glance down where Tyreese and them had left. Her mind was buzzing but she was starting to figure things out in her own way.
