Cara had been out on a hunt with Daryl, she was 21 years old. She had gotten separated from the man she loved and suddenly was surrounded by two men. The burnet looked up at the man in front of her. "Look, I don't know what you are planning here man, but you need to go." She said firmly. "I make one noise and the two of you are dead... trust me" She said, she terrified but she would not show it.
"Oh, little one... there's no one else here... and what are you going to do?" The short haired man asked. "The moment you reach for your gun, you'll be dead before you grasp it."
Cara looked down and shook her head, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry" She said slowly as she looked up and raised her voice. "REDNECK! NOW!" She yelled.
Daryl came out of no where, flipping his bowie knife to a better position before stabbing the man behind Cara through the head. The older man pulled Cara behind him with one fluid motion before pointing the knife at the other man. "I suggest you leave unless you wanna become a walker" Daryl told him, "You threaten my girl and you don't get to just die... I will turn you into a walker" He told him firmly. The man had watched in horror as Daryl had stabbed his friend before looking up at Daryl as he spoke.
"You wouldn't kill an unarmed man" He said putting his hands up in surrounder. Daryl laughed darkly;
"Like I said... leave now or you become a walker" He said flipping his knife around again to attack position. The man took a couple steps back;
"I'm out.." he said before taking off in the opposite direction, Daryl flipped his knife yet again and threw it at the running man. The knife hit him in the back as the man fell to the ground dead on impact.
"D... he was leaving.. you didn't have to kill him" She said, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder before the man turned to look at the girl with gentle eyes.
"Sunshine, he threatened to kill you... I wasn't going to let him get away with that." He told her gently, "Besides I told you years ago that I would never allow anyone hurt you... EVER" He said wrapping his arms around her gently. "I'm sorry that we got separated"
Cara smiled and kissed the man gently before he pulled away, resting his forehead against hers for a moment. Daryl then went towards the dead man and pulled the knife out of his back before leading Cara back to the car and getting her into the passenger seat.
"Let's get back to the prison, Sunshine"
