(Long chapter ahead :) )

"Decontamination? What does that mean?" I say between bitting my nail, I'm facing a sitting daryl with a bottle of more wine in one hand and the other hand plays with his crossbow, "Daryl!" I snap

He doesn't answer me, he ignores me. I sigh out of frustration and swallow the little bit of anger that starts to build up inside of me.

I slowly walk up to him till I'm standing in front of his sitting self. I stare down at him until he lets out a growl... he growls a lot, doesn't he? He looks up at me with a raised eye brow

"Decontamination?" I ask again, daryl just shrugs but there's a lookin his eyes that tells me he's not telling the truth.

He took another swing of his bottle before I could hear the booming of the air slowly disappear, I looked around before walking up to the vent , climbing onto the couch and reaching my hand up to feel air, but there was no air coming out.

It was starting to get hotter and hotter as the minutes passed, I heard the doors of the others start to open, so I climbed out of the couch I sat on and opened the door,

"Why is the air off?" Lori asked as she opened her door, Carol soon coming out of her room with Sophia right besides her

"And the lights in our room?" She asked , panic laced in her voice

I feel Daryl's presence come up behind me, his shadow soon covering me as he leans over me to look out the door

"What's going on why is everything turned off?" He questions, Jenner grabs his bottle of wine as he walks past us. Not answering anyones questions which worries me more than frustrates me.

I feel daryl grab me by the wrist before following after him with the others, I find myself lightly running besides him because of his long strides

You'd think he'd have zero energy with the amount of alcohol he drinks.

"Energy use is being prioritized." Jenner finally says something before taking a swing of the bottle

"Air isn't a priority? And lights?"" Dale questions Jenner further

"It's not up to me. Zone 5 is shutting itself down." Jenner says, and I'm getting tired of his use of big words. Not everybody's a genius, Jenner.

"Hey, hey what the hell does that me?" Daryl asks him confused as me. He still hasn't let me go.

"Hey, man I'm talking to you." Daryl says and I could hear the frustration and confusion coming from his voice. He's walking faster to catch up with Jenners longer strides, causing me to have to run more, " what do you mean it's shutting itself down? How can a building do anything?" Daryl questions further

"You'd be surprised." Jenner replies rather plainly.

"Rick." Lori yells out to rick, who came running from a hall with Glenn ,t dog, and Shane. He holds his hands up as a signal to wait.

I'm now being dragged along with everybody as daryl hasn't let me go. His grip getting a little tighter to the point where I could feel his palm on my skin, but I don't think he realizes it.

"Jenner, what's happening?" Rick ask

"The system is dropping all the nonessential uses of power. It's designed to keep the computers running to the last possible second. That started as we approached the half hour mark. Right on schedule." Jenner says, taking a swing of the wine before pausing

Hesitating before turning to daryl and I, holding the bottle out for who I'm guessing is daryl, he takes the bottle roughly, to rough that some spills out and splashes on the nice clean floor.
