-fighting of symptoms-
The next morning they were up at the same time, Theo under Daryl's arm, sinking into the think mattress.
"I'll never get bored of waking up next to you" Daryl sighed in his sleepy state, causing a blush to raise on Theo's cheeks.
She looked up at him in admiration.
"I love it. I love you" She smiled as she reached up to kiss him softly.
"Morning love birds!" Their morning was rudely interrupted by Merle 'knocking' on their door.
They both sighed to one another before smiling.
They laid with one another for a while before getting ready for the day.
"Are you doing anything today?" Daryl asked her, tying his boots.
"Training" She smiled, placing her new jacket on.
She stood up and did a little spin
"What do you think?" She smiled, posing in front of Daryl.
Daryl looked her up and down, the jacket fitted her perfectly, not too tight, giving her enough room to move, but not loose enough to lose her body in it.
"Suits ya" Daryl winked, "Ya look hot as hell" He stood, walking over to her grabbing her gently by the waste and pulling her closer to his body
"Alright, keep it in your pants Dixon" She smirked as he kissed her.
"Yeah, might have to do something about you wearing only that jacket" He smiled down at her making her playfully roll his eyes.
"Hmm. Well..." She smiled before backing away from him, "I guess I should clear my schedule for tonight then?" Theo looked at him mischievously making him melt.
"Absolutely"
"You want help today?" Daryl asked, chewing on his nail as he moved himself away from Theo before he started something he couldn't finish.
"Nope, I can handle those assholes on my own" She smirked
Daryl smiled at her before gunshot came from inside the prison, sending both of their heads flying in the direction it came from.
"The hell?" Theo asked grabbing her gun and bat
They began running, Sasha, Tyreese, Carol, Glenn and Rick joining them on the way.
The gun shots came from cell block D.
When they got there people were screaming, and there were walkers.
A lot of walkers.
"Are you bit?!" Theo asked as he helped someone up off of the ground who was covered in blood, tears down their face.
"No!" They yelled, getting up, holding on Theo tightly.
"Go, go now" She instructed as she shot at one of the walkers heading her way.
"Daryl!" She yelled as she pointed at a child on their own, he was closest and could easily help the boy.
He responded in doing so, picking up the small boy, landing harshly on his back before shooting the walker with his crossbow.
A couple minutes passed and the mayhem quietened.
"You alright?" Daryl asked, coming straight over to her, checking over her quickly before Merle joined their side.
"You both alrigh?" He asked out of breath.
"Yes, thanks bro" Daryl patted him on the back before turning his attention back to Theo.
"Yeah, I'm okay" She nodded out of breath, it was a lot of walkers to take out.
They made their way up the stairs, finding two other walkers hiding in the cell.
"Dad?" Theo asked, watching him carefully, he just stared at the walker, no emotion in his features.
He nodded at her, she knew he hadn't killed a walker all month, he didn't even touch his gun.
"What happened here?" Glenn asked, rubbing the sweat off of his head.
"Patrick, he has no bites, no scratches, nothing. I think he just died" Rick began, sighing at the young boy.
Theo looked at the young boy sadly.
"This is awful, he just died?" Theo sighed as she tried to hide her emotion.
"Yes, and horribly" The new doctor, Caleb explained, keeling besides him.
"How?" Theo wondered, coming into the cell, Daryl closely behind her.
"He choked to death on his own blood" He told the group "Imagine it as if you shook a soda bottle until the lid popped, but instead of a lid, it's your eyes, ears, nose..." Herschel continued, looking down at the boy.
"Okay..." Theo stopped him as he spoke, not wanting to hear the rest of it.
"I've seen walkers outside, looking exactly like this" Rick added, Theo had to. She just didn't take any notice.
"So this is from the walkers?" Bob asked, looking between the others.
"No, this has been around a lot longer than them" Caleb explained, standing back up.
"It's a virus, and we have all been exposed" Herschel broke the news.
Theo looked around the room, knowing exactly what that meant.
"We have to quarantine everyone here and everyone in the block still alive from the others, to stop the spread" Theo instructed, her mind went straight to Carl and Judith and all the other younger and elder ones in the prison, they were the most at risk.
"We don't know if anyone else is infected, if we are lucky the two that have clearly died from this, might be the only ones who have had it" Caleb hoped
"I haven't known anyone to have luck in a long time" Bob admitted making everyone agree.
"I want to hold a council meeting, now" Herschel nodded, looking at the others.
"You're just going to ignore this? You just said we have all been exposed, yet your going to go and mingle with everyone else?" Theo snapped.
"We don't know yet..." Rick began
"Oh sorry. Are you stupid? The good idea here people is to quarantine everyone, keeping away from Carl and Judith and everyone under the age of 10 and everyone over the age of 50. What aren't you seeing here?" Theo snapped.
"We hold a meeting" Rick ignored her...
Theo looked annoyed at Daryl.
"She has a point" Daryl agreed.
"Now!" Rick snapped walking away.
"Keep your distance" Daryl told Theo who nodded looking at merle who agreed. The two of them walking away to go to the meeting.
Theo wanted no part of being in the council after all, no one took notice of what she said anyhow.
After a meeting was held Theo bumped into her father.
"Hey" He smiled looking down at her
"Hi" She smiled, "How was the meeting?" She asked, cocking her head slightly.
"We came to an agreement, we are going to quarantine anyone that has symptoms" Rick explained
She nodded annoyed.
"I'm going to go and find Daryl, can you go and make sure the walkers aren't piling up?" Rick asked his daughter
"Of course" She smiled as began walking to yard and over to the fence
"Holy!" She yelled as she ran to the fence, the walkers had piled up over night, and the fence was currently beginning to bend, and any second now, looked as though it could break.
"You need to get my dad" She told Maggie as Theo began to kill some of the walkers with a crowbar.
"It's not going to hold!" Sasha yelled, trying her hardest to kill of the walkers, but nothing they did seemed to be making a dent.
Maggie, Glenn, Daryl, Rick, Theo and Maggie were killing as many walkers as they could but it wasn't enough.
"Are you seeing this?!" Sasha yelled looking at the ground to see half eaten rats
"Someone's feeding them!" Theo concluded, angrily looking up to the prison.
"Back!" Daryl yelled as the fence bent even more, pulling Theo away.
"Daryl, get the truck," Rick asked as they ran off.
Maggie left also to open the gate.
While the others continued to kill the walkers, Rick and Daryl headed out in the truck after gathering all the pigs they had left inside the prison.
They drove around, sliced the pigs leg so it couldn't run before dropping it for the walkers, while doing so, the others gathered large enough pieces of wood to support the fence until they could get rid of all the walkers.
After that Rick and Daryl came back and headed over to the others.
"Where are we going to sleep?" Theo asked Daryl, reaching for his hand.
"Anyone that was in that cell block needs to relocate, they can't go back into C, Judith is in there, so you have A, the towers, the basement" Rick listed before walking away.
They all nodded before parting
"Are you feeling okay?" Daryl asked, looking over her protectively, making sure to see if she had any signs
"Yeah, you?" Theo responded, sighing heavily.
"Yeah, were you wanna sleep?" He asked her, looking down at her.
"Tower?" Theo smiled and pointed up to their old hang out, it was destroyed by the Governor, but had been cleared and restored to the best of it's abilities
"Sure" Daryl smiled, leaning in to kiss her cheek but was abruptly stopped by the yelling of someone from the other side of the court.
"Rick!!" Someone screamed from the top of the prison
Tyreese stood at the top, looking destroyed.
Daryl, Carol, Merle, Theo and Rick ran up to him
"What's wrong?" Rick asked
"You need to see this," Tryreese said through his teeth.
