Request:Then may I please request a bit of angst? Perhaps with Daryl seeing his girl get shot down from some where while in a fight. When he gets to the area shes not there, an when he finally finds her shes fine it just hit her arm she just ended up tripping on her foot and thats what caused her to fall.

“What the hell is that?” I asked as I saw tanks emerging from the trees.
“It’s starting.” Beth whispered.
Everyone was extremely quiet as we watched the governor and his army. They weren’t saying anything either, they were just standing and waiting for one of us to make our move.
“You okay?” Daryl whispered as he came running up behind me.
“Yeah, I think so.” I whispered back.
“I love you.” He said and grabbed ahold of my hand squeezing it quickly and then dropping it.
“I love you too.” I said in a low voice and hoped to God that we would make it out of this one.
“I’ll always find you.” He reminded me and pecked me quickly on the temple.
“I hope so.” I sighed and closed my eyes.
I wasn’t ready to give up our home, it wasn’t time to say goodbye. We’ve made so much here and the thought of leaving made me sick.
The governor and Rick were yelling through the fences, while Daryl was secretly passing out guns for us to use.
“We’ll figure this out, we have a council and we’ll figure things out aright?” Rick tried to bargain.
“Is Hershel part of the council? What about Michonne?” Someone went to a car and pulled Hershel out, followed by Michonne. My stomach instantly dropped and I thought I was going to be sick.
Rick ran down to the governor and tried to negotiate, but he wasn’t having it.
I looked over at Daryl, who was already looking at me. We both nodded at each other and looked back to our target.
I thought everything was going fine until the governor lifted Michonne’s sword and swung, causing it to slice into Hershel’s neck.
The screams of Beth and Maggie sent chills down my back, and in this moment all I wanted was to kill the governor myself.
Guns from our side began to fire as the tanks were advancing in our direction. This was it, everything would soon be over, whether I made it out or not.
I decided I didn’t have a good chance of getting any kills from where I was, so I booked it across the courtyard.
I was now behind a car, I could easily be a target, but this was better than my last position.
I picked up my gun and aimed, knocking down my target instantly. I got a few more before I turned to a new one, but her gun was already pointed at me.
I shot once and quickly moved before I was shot down, but I wasn’t fast enough. A noise escaped my mouth, it wasn’t a scream, it was more of a gasp. I tripped over my own feet, and when I hit the ground I saw that my arm was covered in blood, I’d been shot.
Something in me told me I couldn’t stay, so I picked myself up and bolted towards the woods. I would attack them from behind.
*Daryl’s P.O.V*
I heard a noise escape from someone’s mouth, and when I looked, it was Y/N. She went down and I’m pretty sure I started to scream, but I wasn’t sure.
I had to get to her, I had to. I didn’t care about me at this point, so I just went. When I got there she wasn’t anywhere in my sight, which made me even more nervous. I felt sick to my stomach, I didn’t even know what happened, and all different scenarios were playing in my mind.
I kept shooting, all from anger, and all my targets feel to the ground.
I wasn’t understanding why people were starting to fall forward instead of backwards, and they were all in a row.
I heard the screams of someone yelling the words “In the woods! They’re in the woods!”
I looked through the scope of my sniper and didn’t see anything except more people droppin’ like flies.
Three men ran back to the woods to catch a glimpse of the killer, but three shots were heard and nothing more.
“Daryl I can’t find Maggie!” Beth yelled as she came running towards me.
“Beth we gotta go.” I said pulling open a grenade and throwing it inside of the tank. Beth and I took off running towards the woods, all I could hope was that I would find Y/N somewhere out there.
Beth and I sat around the fire, she was goin’ on and on ‘bout havin’ hope or faith or whatever, but I couldn’t stop thinkin’ 'bout Y/N.
“Well find her Daryl. I know we will.” She said nodding her head.
I couldn’t say nothin’, I was too worked up about what coulda happened to her.
“Did you hear that?” Beth started whispering.
I looked up and sure enough I heard cracklin’ of sticks. I grabbed my crossbow and stood up.
“Daryl!” Y/N breathed out a sigh of relief as she stumbled through the woods and into my arms.
I held her tighter than ever and kissed the top of her head. I felt her body trembling in my arms as she let out cries.
“Don’t cry baby, I’m here and you’re okay.” I said as I ran my fingers through her hair.
“I’m sorry I ran away, I was just so scared, I already got hit once so I went for the woods and attacked from behind.” She explained as she pulled away from me to wipe the tears away from her face.
Sure enough there was a chunk of fabric wrapped around her arm where she was shot. I couldn’t believe she was the one in the woods knockin’ them down.
“That was you?” I asked in amazement.
“Yeah.” She half smiled sniffled.
“That’s my girl, now let me fix ya up.” I said after pecking her lips lightly.
