"Merle. Merle. Tell him to let us go, c'mon." I say, still trying to loosen the grip of the man behind me.
"No can do." He says.
As he appears from the shadows, I notice something, peculiar.
"You have one arm?" I say.
"Walker bit my left one. Funnily enough after I left you guys, but I didn't leave. You forced me too." Merle says, walking back and forth.
"We're sorry." Sophia says.
"Sorry my ass." Merle says spitting in her face.
"Please. Were just kids." I say.
"Kids that get in the fucking way!" Merle shouts.
"What do you want?!" I scream.
"I want to feel Shanes dead body, in my own hands. He's the reason I'm no longer with you guys, the reason I am no longer with my own brother!" Merle shouts, anger throughout his voice.
"I think a lot of people want Shane dead to be honest." I say.
"Let go of her. Come sit with ol' uncle Merle." He says, patting the sofa.
So I do. Not because I want to, because I'm scared he might stab me with the knife that's in place for his hand.
"What?" I say.
"Why's Shane so unpopular?" He asks.
"Slept with Lori." I spit out.
"And Lori is.."
"Pregnant." I say.
"Hmm. Good. Let's go." Merle says.
Before Merle even finishes his sentence, my eyesight goes black, as I feel a bag go around my head, and tightens around.
Merle turned his back on us, like we did him.
