A one shot after watching tonight's episode which depressed me big time. I love Carol she is the reason I watch the show. I am torn at what she did one why I totally understand, but the other hand it is hard for me to digest that she did what she did.
A change in the Air
Daryl, and the others came back with the Medicine, and Hershel who is showing signs of the disease himself went in to administer the medicine to the Group. Hershel told the others that the medicine might be to late for some of them that are to far gone, but it might help the one that have not been coughing up blood.
Daryl went to the kitchen , and got a glass of water when Rick came up behind him, and told him he needed to talk to him it was really important.
"Can't it wait I am exhausted, I was going to go up , and have a rest"
"It is about Carol"
Daryl put his glass down, "Don't tell me she has this d**n bug"
"No but we have a problem"
Rick asked Daryl to take this outside he didn't want anyone hearing what he was about to say. Daryl followed him they went to a place that no one could hear, Daryl was freaking out because he wanted to know what was wrong with Carol"
"She has been acting different , and I knew she took matters into her own hands to protect the children"
"What are you talking about"?
"Carol was the one Daryl she ended Karen's and"
Daryl ran over to Rick, and pushed him, 'You lie she would not do that maybe you would and I thought about it , but she never would do it"
"She did I asked her, and she is going to get herself killed because she can't forgive herself because Carol is strong but not strong enough to deal with this. She lost Sophia , and she was going to protect the children here, and I can't say I am not proud of her because I wanted to end it too, and protect Carl, and Judith but I couldn't. She almost got herself killed today running out trying to fix the water access, and I am scared for her"
Daryl turned, and walked away Rick yelled out, 'What are you going to do"?
"I am going to her, and I don't know what I will say". Daryl walked into the prison, and Rick sat down putting his hands over his face. He hated this , and he wondered if any of them would survive this , and if they did would they ever come out of it alive.
Daryl walked down the hall, and walked to Carol's cell she was sitting on the bed alone. He was walked in shutting the cell door making Carol jump.
"You scared me, I didn't hear you come in"
"Tell me it isn't true"
"Rick told you I see yes it is true, and I hate myself for it, but I would do it again to save the children"
"They were quarantined Carol they were not near the children"
"They were coughing up blood, and I knew they were going to die, and turn on us , and I couldn't let that happen. I have 2 girls to protect, and one of them is quarantined right this moment because I am not capable of protecting anyone, I let Sophia down Daryl, and I wanted to protect the other children."
"Carol you should have talked to me, and Rick, and we could have decided what to do"
"I thought if they died no one else would get sick, and look what happen half of us are sick. Glenn, and the Doctor, and I can't believe I thought killing two people would save the rest of us"
"Carol I know you did this to protect us but you know others will hate you for it"
"I know that but I hate myself Daryl I am so sorry" Carol started to cry, Daryl held her, and he pulled her in close as he whispered.
"I will protect you Carol you know you have me , and I will not let anyone hurt you"
"Daryl how can you stand to look at me, I am a horrible person"?
"You be quiet girl you are not horrible you are brave , Beautiful, and I would trust you with my life. I am not saying what you did is right but when it is time we will tell the others, and I know it will be hard but we will make them understand"
"Daryl thank you for being my Friend"
Daryl whispered, "I have a hard time saying how I feel but I love you Carol"
Carol touched his face as the stare at each other both knowing what was ahead of them would be hard but knowing they had each other they would survive this horrible world, and maybe one day they could be happy, and not having to worry about what was going to happen to them next.
The End
I was also very shocked that she kicked over of the tanks holding the water and that the water spilled everywhere on the side walk. I love Carol as well but I am shocked and sadden by what she has done. I feel bad for Tyresse when he finds out what Carol as done.
