Daryl woke up and looked and saw Venus sleeping beside him he mumbled ‘’It wasn’t a dream’’ he stood up and then went to Carl’s and Harry’s cell. He went into the cell and looked at his son Harry was sleeping with his arms wrapped around his pillow. He ran his hand through the boy’s hair and grey eyes opened and he grinned and said ‘’Morning Daddy.’’
Daryl smirked and said ‘’Morning pup’’ Harry sat up and yawned and climbed down and Daryl walked out with Harry following behind him. Venus walked out of the room and she said ‘’Morning’’ she kissed Daryl’s lips and Daryl kissed her back and Harry groaned ‘’Ew!’’ and Daryl grabbed him and picked him up and said ‘’How about I kiss you instead’’ Harry yelped and said ‘’No Daddy!’’
Daryl put him down and finished walking to the kitchen area everyone was there. Harry went to Merle and the man said “Hey little bit.” Harry grinned up at him and said “Morning Uncle.” Harry looked at the others and Venus stood off to the side she didn’t know these people she looked at the older woman holding a baby. She walked over and the woman said “This is Judith Grimes Rick’s daughter.” Venus looked at the baby and she stared back and Venus smiled at her and Judith copied her.
Harrison went over to the guns and ammo. Merle loaded the weapon in front of him and Harrison copied him Merle nodded and patted him on the head. Rick said “Andrea set up a meeting with the governor so I’m taking Daryl and Hershel. Everyone else stay here be ready for anything.”
Venus looked at her husband and he nodded. Venus looked at him and they walked away and she put his ring on his finger and Daryl said “I’ll be fine.” Venus said “I know.” Daryl looked at Harrison and said boy was watching Carl load his gun in front of him. Daryl walked over and made the boy look up at him and Harrison smiled at him and Daryl said “Be good watch your uncle for me.” Harry said “Yes sir.” Daryl rubbed his head and nodded and went to grab his pack and his weapons.
Venus walked over to Merle a few hours after Daryl and the others left. He said “Baby mama.” Venus sat down and said “You are the odd one out huh.” Merle grunted “I was with the governor found him when I was handcuffed to a rooftop.” He looked at his hand and Venus hummed and said “You must have done something.”
Merle opened his mouth and Venus said “No one deserves to be left on a rooftop Merle I would have killed them all.” Merle looked at his sister in law and his cheeks turned red and he looked away and he grumbled softly “Geez.” Venus smiled at him and hit him and said “Let’s start over I’m sure if Daryl can become a member of this group you can as well.”
Harrison walked into the library of the prison he looked around he looked around and nodded when it was clear and he opened his violin case and he jumped when Carl walked in and he said “What are you doing?” Harry said “I just wanted to practice.”
Carl looked and saw the violin and Carl climbed up on a bookshelf and Harry squeaked “What are you doing?” Carl said “Its safe no walkers in this part of the prison so go on I’ve cleared it.” Harry said “So your going to stay.” Carl nodded Harry sighed and mumbled “Fine” he pulled out his violin and Carl sat Indian style and waited and Harry closed his eyes and mumbled “Don’t laugh I was working on this in school my teacher was obsessed with Disney so I wanted to surprise her.” He started playing Tale as Old as Time on his violin Carl just listened.
Venus looked around and saw Merle with Carol they were in the kitchen talking. She said “Harrison where is he?” Michonne said “Carl followed him they might be in the library it’s safe on that side of the prison Carl goes over there to be alone.” Venus sighed and nodded and she said “I’ll go bring them back then.”
Michonne said “I’ll show you.” Venus and Michonne made there way to the library they heard music and the music stopped once they reached the door. Carl clapped and Harrison was turning red and he hid behind his hair and he mumbled “It wasn’t that great.”
Venus opened the door and Harry and Carl jumped into action and Carl pulled out his gun and Harry had a throwing knife in his hand and they lowered their weapons to their sides when it was just Michonne and Venus. Harry said “Sorry mom" Venus said “Just tell me next time when you go somewhere please.” Harry nodded and Venus beckoned him to her and Harry looked at Carl and grinned and bowed and then hurried after his mother. Michonne cooed “Someone has a crush.” Carl yelped “I do not!”
That evening Venus looked up when Daryl walked into the room and Venus said “So" Daryl said “Rick spoke with him he wants us gone dead.” Venus nodded and said “So we are going to war.” Daryl grunted “Looks like it.” He sat on the bed and Venus climbed into his lap and laid her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat she said “Should we tell them about Mine and Harry’s magic.” Daryl grunted “Not yet let’s keep it a secret for now.” Venus nodded and Daryl ran his fingers over her back he just stared at the wall and listened to her breathing.
The next morning
Venus leaned on the wall outside and listened to Rick and Hershel and she said “What gives you the right to decide who gets tortured and who doesn’t. Do you honestly think a man like that will just leave you alone I bet he’s going to show up with goons to kill off you and the ones who show up there.” Rick and Hershel looked at the woman and Rick said “It’s risky I know that.”
Venus said “I also know that you will use Merle to do your dirty work so let’s get one thing straight Mr. Grimes he is my family if whatever your planning hurts Merle in anyway you won’t be happy with me I will make your life a living hell and I won’t feel bad about it so I suggest you do your own dirty work and leave Merle out of it. Your not going to use him like the governor did and then blame him when shit doesn’t go to plan.” She walked away and then said “I’m taking Merle on a run just in case you didn’t hear what I just said.”
Harrison walked over to his father Daryl was looking at Michonne and Harry said “Dad" Daryl looked down at his son and said “Yeah little bit.” Harrison said “What’s wrong?” Daryl said “Just thinkin” Harrison said “Mom left with Uncle Merle.” Daryl nodded and Harrison said “It’s going to be okay” Daryl looked down at him and said “How do you know?” Harry shrugged and walked back inside and Daryl looked when Michonne came over to him with an idea to stop the governor’s people from getting at them.
Harry stared at Judith and Judith stared right back and Harry grinned at her. Judith cooed and Harrison reached inside the playpen and picked her up and Judith played with his long hair with her chubby baby fingers Harry cradled her and he said “Good afternoon Jude.” Judith stared up at him with a small smile on her face. Harry turned and Beth was there she said “She likes you.”
Judith yawned and Harry put her down and Judith whined softly. Harry said “I can’t put you down” Judith yawned again and fell asleep in his arms. Harry said “Well okay then I guess.” Harry went to his and Carl’s room and he climbed onto the bottom bunk and laid back and laid Judith down on his chest and stared at the bottom of the bunk he wanted to be outside.
Carl walked into their room after coming back inside from setting up the traps for Woodbury soldiers. He saw Harrison on his bed with Judith they were both sleeping and Carl picked up Judith and Judith made a sound and Carl put her in his arm and said “Hey Judith.” Judith looked at him and smiled at him Carl mumbled “Were you bothering Harry.” Judith stared at him and Carl rubbed her cheek and then went out of the room to give her to Beth.
Venus walked back into the prison that evening with Merle who had a deer on his shoulders. Venus looked at Rick and Rick walked over and said “We aren’t doing it.” Venus looked at him and nodded and said “Good.” She patted him on his back and she said “We need to get ready and come up with a plan.”
Merle said “I have a plan we ambush him he thinks we are coming to bring him Michonne I suggest we head there and attack first he will bring his best men to attack us so we should hit him first take out his people and then he will have to attack back here but he will only have his people from Woodbury. They are weak scared of their own shadow we show enough force they will run with their tails between their legs.”
Rick raised his eyebrow and said “We will go with your plan once we take out the men he takes to the meeting spot in two days then we will talk about the retaliation he will do.” Merle nodded and said “Yes sir officer friendly.” With that said Venus Merle and Rick went inside the prison to talk with the others about their plan.
