The way that these guys treated her suddenly changed. She was manhandled into a truck where her hands were tied behind her and she was blindfolded. After a long, bumpy ride, she was dragged out of the truck and dropped onto the ground.

"Get up," someone demanded, and then she was being pulled to her feet.

She heard a door open and they walked inside, then she heard it shut behind her. They walked down some steps, which she almost fell down because no one bothered to tell her that they were there. When they stopped her hands were untied. The men began removing her clothing. She yelled and fought, and it took several pairs of hands to hold her still. She feared that Negan had finally decided not to wait for a 'yes' from her, but instead, she was pushed into a room, the blindfold was yanked off, and a door slammed shut behind her. She looked around and jumped when she saw a man sitting on the floor to her right. She tried to cover herself up. The man didn't say anything, but he removed the shirt from the sweat suit he was dressed in and handed it to her. She put it on and was happy to find that it was long enough to cover everything.

"Are you Daryl?"

The man looked surprised, but nodded.

"Rick told me you were here."

"You seen Rick? Is he ok?"

"Physically, yeah, but these psychos seem like they're trying to get under his skin."

"What about the kids?"

"I just saw them about an hour ago. They're both fine."

Daryl nodded, "And Maggie?"

Toni shook her head, "I only met Rick and his kids. What are they going to do to us?"

"I dunno. I been stuck in here for a while. They been feeding me dog food and playing some horrible song, but not much else."

"Ok," Toni took a breath, feeling at least a little bit relieved. "My name's Toni, by the way."

"Why you in here?"

"Negan didn't like how our 'date' went," she replied, using air quotes.

Daryl eyed her, "Did he hurt you?"

"No. After I talked to Rick, I told him I wanted you to come work at the hospital I was running. He said if I wanted to see what they were doing to you he'd show me."

Daryl ran a hand down his face.

"It's ok," Toni quickly told him, "We'll get out of here soon."

Daryl didn't respond, so she walked over and kneeled in front of him. She put a hand up to his face, "Seriously. We'll figure something out."

"They got too many men."

"We'll find a way. Negan's bullied everyone he's ever met; I'm sure he's made some enemies along the way."

Daryl only nodded. Toni sat up against the wall next to him. They sat in silence for a few minutes.

"Find anything to pass the time in here?"

Daryl looked at her like she was crazy, "No."

"Well we gotta find something to do. People go crazy in situations like this."

Daryl shrugged.

"Why don't you tell me about yourself then?" Toni suggested.

"Not much to tell," he mumbled.

She smiled at him, "How long have you known Rick?"

"Been with him since the beginning."

"Any family?"

"I had a brother." He said, but didn't elaborate.

"You don't talk much, huh?"

Daryl shrugged.

"Then I'll talk," she said with a smile. She didn't want to sit in here staring at these four walls for days on end… or maybe longer. "I'm from the midwest, originally. I came to the east coast when I was fourteen, travelled up and down it for a little while, then went to college and medical school. I got my first job around here and I've been here ever since."

Before she could continue, the door swung open and Negan was looming over them. He looked at both of them, then let out a hearty laugh. "Damn, Daryl! You've been locked up here for weeks, we throw a naked woman in here and nothing? I'm starting to wonder about you man." Even though it was supposed to be a joke, Toni still felt violated.

"Go to hell Negan," she said, not bothering to get up from the ground.

Negan smiled at her, "Ok darlin', you can stay here as long as you need," he looked at Daryl now, "She's off-limits, so don't get any ideas." He closed the door and they could hear him whistling as he walked away.
