ENJOY!

A arm grabbed her and pulled her, the bag still over her head. She was rushed from the room, tripping over her few times. The person dragging her stopped then she felt the ground beneath her disappear. The man picked her up tossing her over his shoulder. Loud gun shots ran through the air and Maggie could feel a breeze against her arms telling her they were outside now.

When she felt the stranger place her on the ground she ready herself to punch him out when she heard a familiar voice. The bag was pulled from her head and Maggie let out a weep. Daryl stood in front of her, in all his Daryl glory. She jumped into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck. She let out a cry when she felt him wrap his arms around her wait holding her as close as possible.

"Shh, shh," He shushed her. He ran his hand through her hair and she cried harder into his shoulder. "You're okay, you're okay, everything's okay." He comforted her. Maggie finally pulled away from his neck and looked at his face.

"You're really here."

"Yeah, I'm really here." His eyes looked at her with a intense gaze. "Are ya okay? Are ya hurt?" He asked, he pulled away from her and looked her up and down; looking for any sigh she was hurt.

"I'm good," she assured him even though she really knew she wasn't. She knew by the look he gave her he didn't believe her, but he shrugged it off.

"Daryl, this was Merle." Maggie felt her heart stop and she saw shock cross Daryl's face. "He was going to execute us."

"My brother's the Governor?" He asked moving away from Maggie and towards Glenn. Glenn shook his head.

"No he's like his second in command. or something." Maggie answered. Daryl turned to look at her and his eyes stared at her chest. She looked down and bit her lip. His eyes moved to back to Glenn, a shirtless Glenn. He opened his mouth about to speak when Rick cut him off.

"We need to get out of here, now" He walked over to Maggie. "Are you okay?" she nodded in return.

Maggie looked over Rick's shoulder at Daryl and could see him biting down on his thumb. His eyes watching her.

"Maggie, you-"

"No Glenn, I'm fine let's get out of here," She assured Rick placing a hand on his shoulder. Her eyes staying on Daryl while she spoke.

Maggie's eyes moved to Oscar who was giving Glen a shirt. Rick passed a gun to her and she gave him a nod. Rick moved away from her and walked towards Daryl. Her eyes lingered on them for a second, she could her them whispering. Her head turn and she walked to Glenn helping him get the shirt on. She slid a arm around his waist and helped him to his feet. Her eyes moved back to Rick and Daryl who were arguing. She could make out her name and Merle's being said.

"Alright lets go," Rick moved from Daryl and walked to them.

They moved to the door and walked out one by one. Maggie following behind Oscar and Daryl behind her. She readied her gun and started to fire one she hit the street. The streets were full of smoke blocking the view of the residents of the town. Their voices could be heard shouting commands at each other. Daryl walked by her heading to the front of the group.

Maggie fired her gun into the smoky streets, rushing a fast as she could. She caught Glenn fall to the ground and rushed over to him. She wrapped her arm around his torso and pulled him to his feet. His arm wrapped around her shoulders. She shot at the few people she could just barley make out through the heavy smoke and dragged Glenn at her side.

She finally made it to the opening in the wall. She shot her gun at a few walkers moving towards them. Tightening her arm around him they squeezed through the small opening. She could hear Glenn wheezing in her ear and she turned to look at him. His eye was swollen and his face still bloody. Her eyes scanned around for any more walkers, none came into view so she dragged him across the road. When she felt a hand touch her back her head swung around and she let go of Glenn's body.

"This way," Rick said when she turned to face him. He slid a arm around Glenn and pulled him towards a area covered in bushes. She followed close behind him. She crouched down to the ground next to Rick and Glenn. "You guys okay?" Rick asked.

"Yeah, yeah were good." She looked to Glenn who nodded his head. She gave him a smile then looked back towards the wall. The gun fire was done, but loud shouts and yelling could still be heard. Walkers were going to start coming with all the noise they had all just made. She turned back around and looked at Rick and Glenn. Her brows furrowed when she noticed Daryl wasn't there. She felt her heart speed up and her blood rush through her veins. "Where's Daryl?"

Rick's eyes moved from her to the wall. "Shit," He spit out. His hand moved to his hair that was covering his forehead. He pushed the hair from his skin and shook his head. "He must of went back-"

Both their head turns and they put their guns back in position when a noise came from behind them. A woman Maggie recognized from earlier with long brown dreads and a sword in her hand appeared. She raised her hands up and dropped the sword from her hand. Maggie held the gun towards the woman's head ready to shoot if needed.

Rick held the gun to her head and crouched down and took her sword from the ground. His finger lied on the trigger and he pushed the gun closer to her head. The woman's hands were up and her eyes stared at Rick ignoring her completely. Maggie's eyes looked between the two and Rick moved his gun from her head. The woman's hands fell to her side and her body relaxed.

"You get what you came for?" He asked, the woman's head shook.

"Where's the rest of your people?" The woman asked and her eyes moved to the ground.

"They got Oscar." Maggie turned and saw Glenn on his feet and a gun in his grip aiming towards the woman.

"Daryl, Daryl's missing did you see him?" She asked the woman. The woman's eyes looked up at her and she saw a quick flash of pity in her eyes before she shook her head at her.

"If anything happened to him-"

"I brought you hear to save them." The woman cuts him off. Both Rick and her stare at each other before he turns back to Maggie. "You're going to need my help to bring them back to the prison, or to save Daryl." Her eyes moved to Maggie quickly when she mentions Daryl. "Ether way you need me." She finishes.

Maggie's eyes move from the woman to Rick, his face looks like it had aged within the amount of says since Laurie died. His face is covered in sweat and his brows are furrowed. Maggie moved her gun and places it in its spot on her belt. She looks to the woman who's staring at them waiting for a reply. Maggie's eyes move back to Rick and she nods her head.

"Alright, let's get them."

Somewhere else in Georgia (Present Time)

The chill of the upcoming fall air filled the cold room. A man walked with his head held high and eyes blood shot. His large build was intimating along with the caliber rifle he held in his hands. His chin covered in stubble and dark bags under his eyes. His hair was slicked back with grease and a strong smell of body odder filled the air around him. With every step he took the loud thud of his boot hitting the cold ground bounced off the walls.

"Now all y'all are going to listen to my every word," His deep voice said. He stopped his walking a spit on the ground. "My men and I are taking over this place." He smirks looking around at the men and woman on their knees.

The man's tongue slid along his bottom lip as he look as a woman. Her head was looking down, her body shaking and hands held tightly together. Her long brown hair was falling from it's braid and covering her face. A smirk fell on the mans face and bent down to the girl. He was aware of everyone looking at him and that made what he was about to do so much better.

"Ya hear me toots?" The girl kept her head down and her body shook a bit more. "Did you hear me I just asked you a question." He asked irrigated. The girls head slowly moved up and her grey eyes popped out from behind the fallen stands of hair. Her eyes met the man's blood shot eyes.

The woman appeared to be no older than her early twenties. Her face coved in dirt and grime and her pale cracked lips were in a firm line. She stared at the man who was becoming inpatient with every second. A smile appeared on the mans face and he let out a deep throated laugh. The back on his hand connecting with her face and she fell to the ground.

"I fucking asked you a question. You answer me," He snarled. She spit out the blood that was staring to fill her mouth. She looked up at the man and could see the anger in his face.

"Like I was saying before. My men and I, were in charge. Y'all are going to do what we say or you're going to end up like little bitch here." He looks from the people around him to the girl he had just hit. His boot connects with her ribs twice before he continues. "I take that back. This is nothing compared to what's going to happen to all of you." He bent down to the girl and grabbed on to her hair and pulled her up to her feet. "Billy come here." He commanded one of his men.

Billy a tall man with dark skin, large shoulders and a shaved head walked over to the man. The man pushed the girl into his arms and pulled her arms behind her back. "I'm going to ask you one last time. Did you hear me." His snarled in the girls face. The girl stared him in the eyes for a few seconds before spitting the blood in her mouth in the man's face. "You fucking cunt," He reached out wrapped a hand around the girls neck and pushed her to the ground.

From the other side of the room a man in his mid twenties was on his knees with one hand placed on the woman at his sides back. He rubbed circles into her back while Chloe's screams filled the room. "Why the hell couldn't you just say yeah Chloe?" He asked her in his head. She had one of the men, who he assumed was their leader on top of her. While one of the other men Billy, holding her down. His eyes moved away from her, he couldn't watch it. Weeps of the other woman and a few children could be heard around him.

"This is all my fault. This is all my fault." He repeatedly said in his head. The woman on his side shifted closer to him. "Shh, It's going to be okay." He said trying to comfort her. However, he knew it wasn't going to be okay. It was going to be far from okay and it was all his fault.

Back to our favorite group of people

Daryl walked behind Maggie and Rick with his brother not far behind them. His bow was on his shoulder and his face was killing him. Fucking Merle he said in his head. There was a awkward silence in the air around them while they walked back to the cars. No one said anything, not even Merle which surprised him a bit. His brother had one of the biggest mouths he knew. His mind begun to think about what they were going to do. There was going to be a lot of shit they were going to have to talk about now that Merle was with them.

Maggie came to a stop in front of him and turned her body to face him. Daryl noticed her eyes glare at his brother briefly before moving to him. Her lips turned up a bit and he gave her a nod. He stopped when he got to her and looked to his brother. "Go ahead."

Merle looked between Daryl and Maggie and gave a grunt. "With officer friendly over there," He nodded his head towards Rick. "Fuck no."

"Merle fuck off." Merle looked from Daryl to Rick then let out another grunt. His face cringed and he moved from his spot and started walking towards Rick.

Daryl watched his brother drag his feet through the dirt while he slowly made his way to Rick. When he was sure he was to far to hear him he turned back to Maggie. His mouth opened about to speak but Maggie cut him off wrapping her arms around him. Her arms squeezed around neck putting all her strength into the hug. Daryl wrapped his arms around her waist holding her close. His nose was in her hair which smelt of sweat, blood and her. He let out a sigh into her hair and slowly pulled away.

Maggie's arms slowly fell from his shoulders to her sides and her eyes sparkled with tears. "I thought I might of lost you for a moment there." Maggie said letting a tear fall.

Daryl bit his bottom lip and nodded his head. "Right back at ya," His eyes moved to look at his brother then back to Maggie. His eyes started at the shirt she was wearing; the shirt that belonged to Glenn.

Maggie's eyes caught Daryl's looking at the shirt she was wearing. A cold chill ran up her spine at the memory of how she came to wear Glenn's shirt. His eyes followed up the shirt to her face and his brows furrowed. She knew what he was about to ask and she was terrified at what was going to happen when she answered. She braced herself waiting for him to ask the question. Her eyes looked down to their feet and she took a deep breath inhaling the fall morning air. There was a long pause before he finally did something. His arms wrapped around her pulling her close.

Daryl felt Maggie relax into his arms when she pulled her against him. He didn't need to ask her, he already knew. His hand found her hair and he rubbed circles into her scalp. She wasn't crying, she wasn't doing anything but letting him hold her. Daryl wasn't sure what to do. Should he say something or do something besides hug her? He had never been in a position like this before.

"Ya two fuckin' done already?" Merle's voice yelled out. Daryl felt Maggie's body tense up before slowly letting him go.

"Shut the hell up." Daryl heard a more quiet Rick sneer at his brother. Rick looked over at the two men waiting for him and Maggie. He looked back to Maggie who was starting at him. "Ya goin be okay until we get back?" He asked her.

Maggie bit down on her bottom lip and nodded. "Yeah I'm good, lets go." She said walking towards Rick and Merle.

"It wasn't Merle?" He asked causing her to stop.

Maggie turned around and shook her head. "No, it wasn't him, but Glenn. That was him." Daryl nodded and followed behind her making their way to the other two.

...

Maggie ran a hand through her hair while Glenn, Rick and Daryl argued. She wasn't even bothering saying anything anymore. Each time she tried to say something she was ignored or cut off. Fucking men. No matter what though she had to agree with Glenn, he was right. Merle could not go back to the prison even if he was Daryl's brother or not. Merle was the reason they were both captured and tortured.

"Fine, we'll fend for ourselves." Daryl's words brought her back. Her eyes widened and she tensed.

"That's not what I was saying." Glenn said.

"No him, no me." He replied back.

"Daryl you don't have to do that." Maggie said, cutting into the conversation. Daryl's eyes started at her for a second then moved to the other two.

"It was always Merle and I before this anyways." He looked to Rick who shook his head.

"What are we suppose to tell Carol? What about Maggie?" Maggie looked at Glenn who was pointing to her.

"I can speak for myself." Maggie said to Glenn. "Daryl, stay here with us. Don't go." Maggie took a step towards him but Daryl took a step back.

"She'll understand and you will too." He said looking to her. Maggie's head shook and she watched him with wide eyes as he walked past her. Rick followed behind Daryl and she felt like she was locked in place.

Daryl was leaving? He was actually leaving them to be with his brother. The one who handed her and Glenn over to the governor with out a second thought. He chose him over them. The blood begun to pump through her vanes and her heart started to beat loud and fast. She was fuming and before she knew what she was doing she was walking towards the woods where Daryl was walking towards his brother.

"Hey!" She yelled out. Daryl turned around just as she got to him. Maggie's hand collided with his chest and she shoved him.

"What the fuck?" She shoved him again. "Maggie," and again. Daryl reached out and grabbed her wrist before she could shove him again. "Maggie stop."

"No, you don't get to do that. You don't get to walk away Daryl." She sneered at him. He blinked at her a few times before letting her go. "You can't just walk away from me, let alone not even say goodbye."

"Look Maggie..."

"No you look. I can't force you to stay and I know that. But I do know that we've been through way to much for you to just leave it like this." She said out of breath. Daryl's eyes roamed her face for a moment before he nodded. "I'm still going to ask you though, stay?"

He knew Maggie was right. She deserved more than what he was giving her. She meant more to him than everyone in the group and now he was just leaving her for his brother. He wanted to stay, but he wasn't about to abandon his brother again. He also couldn't leave her like this.

He scratched the back of his neck. "This ain't no fairytale where we run off together into the sunset or some shit like that." Maggie squinted her eyes at him and bit her lip. "This is real life and there ain't no such thing as happily ever after. I'm leaving Maggie and you're right there ain't nothing you can do about it." He finished.

Maggie watched him turn from her and walk to his brother. Merle wrapped his around Daryl's shoulder and the two started walking deeper into the woods. Maggie ran a hand through her hair and turned walking back to the cars. Rick was standing at the back of the car when she walked out of the woods.

"You okay?" He asked her. Maggie looked for Glenn and the dark skinned woman she believed her name was Michonne. She found them both sitting in the car and then turned her head back to Rick.

"Honestly, I don't know."
