Daryl often found himself alone on a run or hunts. He preferred it that way to anything else. He was more of a lone wolf then a group person. It was quiet out. Deer were moving through the woods and he was following them with stealth. His blue gaze locks on them and lines up his crossbow against his shoulder. He let out a breath then pulls back on the trigger with his index finger - he watches the bolt fly through the air until hitting his target. The deer took off and Daryl was following the blood trail left behind. He found the deer dead and he was getting ready to gut it when his eyes find a small shack. He walks inside and leans his head to the side. “I hear you. I’m armed so come out slowly with hands where I can see them.”
Beth’s eyes darted to the door then squeezed her eyes shut before slowly stumbling out of the shed before groaning as the sunlight burned her eyes, “Don’t… don’t shoot,” she whispered softly as she swallowed harshly - her throat burned as it was so dry. After the prison had been run over she was on her own, of course she knew life wasn’t gonna be easy on her own, but she tried - she really did. “Please, don’t shoot,” her body was near collapsing as she leaned on a tree then her eyes focused on the man with the crossbow, “I just need water,”
Daryl wasn't sure he was actually seeing her. Another cruel day dream. He hadn't seen her in months. He lowers his weapon then fishes for a bottle of water. He tosses it to her. “Beth? Is it really you?” He asks not taking his eyes off her just in case it as all a figment of his mind. No one had seen her but here she was. “Your real, right?”
