To the end - The Walking Dead

Merle Dixon

"Hey Dixon, are you crazy?" Morales exclaimed angrily as they ran up to the roof where a man was standing on the edge and sniping walkers while laughing his head off clearly amused at the fact that he was getting in trouble

"Hey hey hey, you outta be more polite to a man with a gun," Merle yelled out as he turned around to face the people running up onto the roof, still standing on the edge of the building and waving the gun around

"And you outta be less stupid for a man standing on the side of a ledge," Artemis replied to the man, an amused look on her face as she stared over at him.

He let out a few grunts as he jumped down off the edge and back on the flat ground of the roof, making his way over to them, "now now missy, its only common sense who should be watching what they are doin' Ive got the gun, I could shoot ya right now," Merle said to her in amusement

T-Dog jumped down near Merle, an angry look on his face as he stormed over to Merle with a scowl on his face, "man, you are wasting bullets we ain't even got, man!" He yelled at him angrily, "and you are brining even more of them down on our ass! Man just chill."

"Hey, bad enough I got this taco bender on my ass all day," he said referring to Morales, "and now I'm gonna take orders from you? I don't think so, bro. That will be the day." He said and every single one of them knew what he was inferring

Artemis jumped down next to t-dog, a scowl on her face as she looked up at Merle, she was only 5'3, but the glare on her face was enough to intimidate the redneck, "are you kidding me right now?" She scowled at him

"Quit bitchin kid, you ain't need to worry about nothin' I ain't talkin to you," he said to her and then turned back to T-dog

" 'that will be the day'? You got something that you want to tell me?" T-dog said angrily, flailing his arms around as he restrained himself from hitting the man in front of him

"Hey, T-dog man just leave it," Morales says to T-dog, he had also been trying to ignore Merle's stupid, racist remarks but it was becoming even too much for him as he patience wore more and more thin

"No!" T-dog fired back rightfully so

"All right? It ain't worth it," Morales said and tried to defuse the situation, "now merle, just relax okay. We've got enough trouble," his attempts only seemed to make the situation worse

"You wanna know the day?" Merle growled

"Yeah," T-dog fired back angrily

"I'll tell you the day mr. 'Yo' It's the day I take orders from a n**-" before he could finish the slur, Artemis had flung forwards and thrown her fist straight into the mans face, knocking him back a few steps as he quickly grabbed his lip. he pulled his hand away from his mouth and saw blood on his fingers from his now split lip. An amused chuckle fell from his lips

"Ya know, I think you and my youngest brother would get on mighty fine," Merle said in amusement as he looked at the teenager in front of him

"Well if he is anything like you than I highly doubt that you jackass," Artemis growled as T-dog looked at her in appreciation. Merle quickly came forwards and hit the girl across the face with the bottom of his gun, the gun hit her temple and she stumbled back a bit as her vision went blurry

"Hey come on Merle, that's enough!" Morales and the others quickly called out to him. He went to punch her but she ducked and then uppercut him in the jaw before doing a spinning back kick, her foot flying into his chest. He let of a growl of anger as he charged at her again. This time Rick tried to get in the way and help the girl but Merle punched him, sending him to the ground before hitting the girl in the cheek with his closed fist.

The people around them were all begging for them to stop, both of them were bleeding from various spots. The girl still hadn't drawn her blade, and didn't plan on doing so, she had no intention of killing the man... just severely injuring him. She suddenly did a tornado kick, high enough to kick him in the head and this seemed to be Merles last straw as he aimed the gun at her and went to shoot her, only to be stopped by Rick who hit the gun out of his hand with his own.

Merle stood back and looked around at all of them in anger, "that's it! We are all gonna stand around and have a little powwow, talk about who is in charge," he yelled as if he had just won the fight, "i vote me! Anybody else? huh? Democracy time y'all. Show of hands huh?" Nobody put their hands up but he wasn't planning on stopping, "all in favour! Show of hands. Come on, let me see them!"

"Oh come on," Andrea said with a groan, annoyed at the behaviour that had gone on while they were up on the roof, at this moment she could have sworn that the man in front of them right now was one of the most annoying people that she had ever met in her life, and the other people standing along side her would have agreed if she asked if they felt the same way

"All in favour?" Merle continued to pressure them all and pointed the gun at the living as the crowded around the girl to make sure that she was okay. They slowly all began to raise their hands, none of them wanting to be shot by the crazy man in front of them who was waving around a gun that could end their life in a second, "alright, well I guess that means im the boss right? Yeah. Anybody else?" he asked, looking at Artemis who refused to raise her hand to 'vote' for him

"hmm? Anybody?" Merle asked patronizingly as he looked at them all

"yeah," Rick spoke up from behind merle. Merle turned around to look at RIck and rick suddenly smacked him across the head with the butt of his own gun, knocking him to the floor. Rick then walked over to him and handcuffed him to a pipe that was bolted firmly into the cement of the ceiling.

"who the hell are you man?" Merle asked in anger as he stared up at the cop who stood over him with a threatening gaze

"officer friendly," Rick fired back and grabbed him by the shirt and slammed his back into the pole, "looks her Merle. Things are different around here now. There are no n***** anymore. No dumb as shit, inbred white-trash fools either. Only dark meat and white meat. Theres us and the dead. we survive this by pulling together, not apart."

"Screw you man," Merle growled at the cop

Rick sighed patronisingly, "I can see you make a habbit of missing the point," Rick says

"Yeah well screw you twice... and little miss feisty over there," Merle said as he motioned over to Artemis

"ought to be polite to a man with a gun," Rick says and suddenly cocks the gun and presses it against Merles forhead. Artemis's eyes dropped as she stepped forwards, "only common sense," he said as he pressed it harder into the side of Merles head

"Rick c'mon," she commented. Now Rick was acting just as bad as Merle was, it wasnt wise to snoop down to his level

Rick looked over at her but his attention was quickly brought back to Merle as he spoke up, "you wouldnt. Youre a cop." Merle said, anger in his tone

"all I am anymore is a man looking for his wife and son. Anybody who gets in the way of that is going to lose. I'll give you a moment to think about that," Rick said as he got closer to Merles face, knowing all the ways to threaten someone. Rick pats him down to make sure that there were no weapons on him and finds a bag of cocaine buried in his pocket, "you got some on your nose their."

"what are you gonna do? Arrest me?" Merle laughed loudly as he looked at the cop but he quickly stopped as Rick threw the bag off the side of the extremely tall building, "hey man, what are you doing, thats my stuff!"
