The start

War

Well, shit. I'm sorry. I was in a meeting. I see you got you're little mud flaps with ya." Negan held his bat up as we stare at rhe people hiding behind their cars. Clever. Real clever.

"So I'm not exactly feeling a reason to throw light at each other. I care about my people. I don't want to just march them in front of the line of fire to play that my dick is bigger than yours. It is. We both know it. But, we're both comfortable enough to accept the fact that if it wasnt. I'm most certainly not going to let my people dye over that shit. Just like you're about to. So Rick, what the hell can I do for you?" Negan throws his hands in the air with humor. Rick points up at us angrily.

"Dwight. Your name Simon. You're Gavin. And you?" Rick asked our new member.

"Regina." She seemed to play it tough.

"Rick I'd feel remiss it," Eugene starts as Rick cuts him off.

"No, I know who you are. And you." Rick points at me.

"I know who you are. But I don't think you know who you are. Not really." Rick looks at me sternly like a strict father. I just chewed on the inside of my cheek and swallowed back the hard words that could have come out of my mouth.

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

"Listen, you six. The Saviors inside. All of you have a chance to survive here. To survive this. You all can live if you surrender. Can't guarantee it any time but now. Right now." Rick tells us but we all get comfortable around Negan.

"So they surrender... and you and your little piss patrol doesn't kill them. That sounds like a good deal! What about me, Rick?"

"I told you. Twice. You know what's going to happen." Rick points at Negan as I rest my hand on my gun.

"I do. I do know what's gonna happen. You don't. You have no idea about the shit that's about to go down. Let me ask you something, Rick -- Do you think you have the numbers for this fight? You don't. Simon?" Negan steps back as he ishers Gregory from Hilltop to step forward.

"What do you have to say to Rick and the piss patrol, Gregory?" Negan asked him as he clamps a hand down on his shoulder.

"The Hilltop stands with Negan and the Saviors. Any resident of the Hilltop who takes up arms or who supports this ultimatum against the Sanctuary or any of the Saviors, for that matter -- they will no longer be welcome in the colony." Gregory announced.

"And?"

"Their families will be thrown out and will be left to fend for themselves." Gregory questions as Negan nods his head and pats his back.

"And?" Negan asked with humor as I let out a dangerous smirk.

"Go home now. Or you won't have a home to go back to." Gregory looks at us for approval as we nod our heads. close enough.

"You heard the man. Go back to separating wheat and shit or whatever the hell it is you people do." Negan says.

"Doesn't look like anyone's goin', does it?" A female voice goes off.

"Hilltop stands with," Gregory starts as he gets cut off.

"The Hilltop stands with Maggie!" A male voice goes off. I was getting antsy. I needed some action. Can't be standing around in one place for so long. It's driving me crazy.

"I feel like I invested a lot of time in you. I am very, very disappointed in you." Simon looks at Gregory and throws him down the stairwell. Gregory whimpers and grunts as he fell down each step. I chuckled as he rolled onto the ground. I stop chuckling as I heard explosion off in the distance. Black clouds of smoke filled the air far away. I look at Negan as he shakes his head.

"Sounds like a lot of shit is going down Rick." Negan looks at him.

"You lieutenants, you're going to have to make up your minds." Rick tells us.

"You think we can take a time out here?" Gavin asked. Gavin is stupid.

"No." Negan looks at him.

"This has to happen now." Rick says He shakes his head amd replies back.

"This is the only way." Negan paces giving his danger face. Something is going to happen.

"You're going to make me count?" Rick chuckles as if this was a game.

"Okay. Okay. I'm counting. 10. 9. 8. 7." Gun shots went off as I ducked for cover. I grabbed Negan as we hid.

"This is a shit show." He says angrily.

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

"We're gonna be fine. We got the numbers." I tell him. He nods his head as the gunshots were still going off. And then it got worse. m Negan and I tucked and rolled underneath a vehicle. Then there was a explosion and more shots rung out. Felt like it was raining bullets near us. I pull us out from under the car as we head over to a small building.

"In here!" I pull Negan inside as we shut the door. the noise of walkers was coming closer. Of course. The gates down. I sit down in a chair and try to settle my breathing. The door opens and closes. I stood up immediately holding a gun straight at the person. Didn't seem like they were a threat. Negan puts his arm on my shoulder shaking his head no.

"I hope you got your shittin pants on." Negan asked the man.

"What?" The guy asked.

"Your shiting pants, I hope you're wearing them right now. Cuz you, are about to shit your pants." Negan chuckles as I held a smirk. Something was about to happen.
