During the prison he went on runs a lot and one run he got hurt, badly and passed out. When he woke up he was in a new community. It was like paradise, everyone was so happy, kids running, even learning, but he knew he needed to get back to his community so he left, promising he would visit when he could but he never did.
Your community was a thriving one, hidden away from the saviors, hidden away from everything and anything. Walls are high and stable, solders trained, kids and adults happy. It was safe, hidden, and protected.
One early morning your top soldier woke you up saying it was urgent. It was, very urgent. When you went to the gates of your community you saw Daryl and his group. You were speechless.
"We need some help." He said, putting down his crossbow. He could never forget the bond you two made while he was here all those years ago. They did need help especially with negan going wild with the saviors.
