No Mercy (TWDG)

The Start of a Journey

"So. That's how scary it was when Carver beat Jake?" Abigail questioned as she rocked Lee. "Yeah, now you know what I went through." I replied. Her and I were the only ones awake. Everyone is getting sleep for the journey to hell. "Man, that was scary as hell. It's a miracle that he's alive." Abigail said facing Jake. I nodded. "Now he has a eyepatch again." I muttered. "I'm sorry you went through that again, Clem." "Thank you." Abigail gave me a warm smile.

"A'right people. Murphy says you gotta go now!" A man said kicking open the door. "Troy?" I said with surprise. I sure as hell wasn't happy to see him though. "Oh. I remember ya. Get your shit together and leave!" He said. "Dammit, you again." Jake said. "How's that eye?" Troy teased. Troy started to laugh. My brother and Troy had a very hostile relationship. Jake raised his fist and was about punch Troy. "It ain't worth it dear." Kendra said putting her hand on Jakes shoulder. "Wish y'all could stick aroun' so I can order ya around again. Like I said. Take your shit and get the fuck outta here!" He said as he finished laughing. He hasn't changed a bit. We just stood there glaring at him. He raised his gun at us. Which made us move.

"I really liked you folks. You seemed like good people." Murphy said on our way out. "If only Jake hadn't murdered that man, I would happily have you folks in our community. It's a shame." He said. "For the last fuckin' time. It wasn't goddamn murder!" Jake spat. "Sure it wasn't. Get moving." Murphy ordered us. "And if we don't?" Carl asked. Guards pointed their guns at us. Murphy chuckled. "Oh one more thing. You guys forgetting something?" He said. I shook my head. "Think harder." I then realized, Lee wasn't with us. "Lee! Where is he?!" I questioned. "The poor little guy has been through a lot. So we're keeping 'em here." Murphy said. A woman came through the crowd with Lee. "Like hell you are!" Christa shouted. "Give us the baby! Now!" Jake ordered.

"Whoa slow down kid. I give the orders around here boy." He said. "We aren't leaving with out him." I said. "Deal with it!" He spat. "Give them the child." Joel said. "Joel, man you just met these folks. Give me a goddamn break!" Joel just clutched his hands together. "Troy?" "Yes sir?" Murphy nodded. The woman put Lee on the ground. Troy then aimed the gun at Lee. "Noo!" I shouted. Jake darted toward Troy but Murphy got in the way. Jake easily shoved him out of the way and grabbed the gun. *Bam* "Ahhhhh!" Troy screamed. "You shot my dick off!" He whimpered. I ran towards Lee and grabbed him.

"Now Jake. We can make a deal." Murphy said holding his hand out while crawling away. "To late." Jake muttered. Murphy looked over at the guards. "A little help?" He asked. Jake glared at the guards which scared them off. He raised the gun and put a bullet in Murphy's head. "C'mon, lets go." Jake said. We left Yankton. Great, leaving another safe place. First, Wellington, then Fords city. Now here.
