Blues P.O.V

As we neared camp I could sense the anxiety and worry coming from the group of people slowing following behind us. I flicked my ears wondering what was to cause this, I hoped it wasn't me, i hadn't ment to scare them that bad I was just worried about Daryl's safety. The thought of this brought my mind back to the new man that was now also following us back to the camp. He smelt of gun powder and sweat, nothing to alarming so I didnt give it to much more thought, as long as he didnt hurt Daryl we would he fine.

As we entered camp Daryl began to call out for Merle. I never really liked him much, he gave off a bad vide and always caused trouble. Merle was family though so I mainly but up with it.

Daryl walked over to a fire pit and yelled out to Merle again "Merle! Get your ugly ass out here! Blue and I got us some squirrel. Let's stew them up.". I was about to sit down by Daryl's side when she awkwardly stepped forward. "Daryl, just slow up a bit. I need to talk to you." Daryl stopped what he was doing body tensing some which caused me to go on alert. He looked at Shane and asked "about what?". Shane walks over so he is standing in front of the old smelling RV and says "About Merle. There was a.... there was a problem in Atlanta.". Shane sighs as people from the group gather around noticing the growing tension in the air that made the fur along my back start to prickle.

"He dead?" Daryl asked looking towards the ground as he walks a little ways from the firepit. I followed close by his side watching Shane. "We're not sure" Shane said. Daryl anger was rising as he yelled "He either is or he ain't!". Even though I didn't like Merle that much I was hope he wasn't dead for Daryl.

Just then the strange new man stepped forward and confronted Daryl. "No easy way to say this so I'll just say it". Daryl turned to face new man and said "who are you?". "Rick Grimes" the man said introducing himself. "Rick Grimes you got somthing you want to tell me?" Daryl said trying not to yell. I looked up at Daryl and thought it was us but decide to let it slide for now as Rick looked conflicted and nervous before he spoke again.

"Your brother was a danger to us all. So I handcuffed him on a roof, hooked him to a piece of metal.....He's still there.". As Rick finished that sentence I could feel the rage coming of Daryl like flames. The fur along my back stood fully up and I could feel a growl starting to build up in the back of my throat. How dare he leave Merle like that!.

Daryl turned and walked back a couple of places "hold on." He said processing the information as I stayed between him and Rick my head low daring Rick to move. Daryl turned back to face Rick and said "Let me process this. You're saying you handcuffed my brother to a roof, and you left him there?!" Daryl yelled and I let the growl escape my mouth as I bared my teeth at Rick.

Rick looked down a bit and said "yeah". Then Daryl just snapped throwing the sling of squirrels at Rick and going to charge forward but he was tackled aside by Shane. This made my anger boil over as I let out a snarl and charged forward. Shane turned just in time as I launched in the air and sank my teeth into his forearm. He cried out in pain stumbling back from my weight as I bit down hard tasting blood. Daryl was now on his feet knife in hand as he approached Rick again. He swung the knife a couple of times, Rick dodging his swings. This distracted me as I worried about Daryl's safety enough for Shane to get his other hand around my throat and yanked me off his arm. I let out a cry of pain as he flung me off him and I landed with a loud thump to the ground a good couple feet away. My cry of pain also distracted Daryl as he looked over with concern but then was grade by Shane and put in a chokehold. Rick graded the knife from Daryl's hand as Shane struggles to get Daryl to the ground.

I struggled to get back to my feet and to get the air back in my lungs that was knocked out from hitting the ground so far. My neck and my side burned with my movement and I whimpered in pain as I shakily got to my feet. Fighting the pain I charged forward again and sank my teeth into Shane's calf in hopes he would let Daryl go. Shane yelled out in pain turning to me and glaring. My attempt to get him to release Daryl failed as he turned and sent his foot into my already burning ribs. This was enough for my to cry out in even more pain and relse his leg. "Blue!" Daryl yelled to me incorncen as he fights Shane. I was about to try and make another move when Morales put his hands gently around my chest and slowly backed us up a couple feet. At this point my I decide not to struggle and fell to the ground panting in pain as Morales watched the scene unfold beside me.

Shane finally got Daryl to the ground as Daryl yelled "you best let me go!". "Nah, I think it's better if I don't" Shane said as he shifted his position clearly in some pain from my attack which made me smirk internally. "Chokehold is illegal!" Daryl struggled to yell as Shane just said "yeah you can file a complaint". This caused me to growl towards the man and shift to try and get up but Morales but his hand on my back and whispered "easy girl". I didn't want to hurt him so I reluctantly layed back down.

"Come on man we'll keep this up all day" Shane said as Rick crouched down in front of Daryl. "I would like to have a discussion on this topic. Do you think we can manage that?" Rick asked Daryl as he glared at the man. "You hurt my fucking dog!" Daryl yelled at Rick how flinched slightly as he looked over at me just noticing the state I was in. "I'm sorry about that but she attacked Shane first" Rick half apologized. "Wouldnt have done nothing if you hadn't of started things" Daryl muttered. "So can you manage a calm discussion?" Rick asked again. Daryl stopped fighting and Shane released him. "What I did was not on a whim. Your brother does not work and play well with others" rick tryed to explain to Daryl as he sat up to his knees. "Its not Rick's fault" Tdog suddenly stepped forward. "I had the key, I dropped it" he spoke. "You couldn't pick it up?" Daryl asked like he was talking to a stupid person. "I dropped it in a drain" Tdog confessed.

Daryl gets to his feet and whips his face as he walks a couple paces away from Rick. "If its suppose to make me feel better it don't" Daryl says as he goes to walk to me Tdog speaks again. "Maybe this will. Look, I chained the door to the roof so the geeks couldn't get at him. With a padlock." "Its gotta count for somthing." Rick says.

Daryl turns and walks over to me. He crouches down and whispers "it's alright blue, your a good dog. Fucking Shane is going to get what's coming to him". Carfully Daryl pats my side and sees nothing is broken, just light brusing. I stiffly get to my feet and to his side as he turns and yells "hell with all y'all!!" "Just tell me where he is so's we can go get him" Daryl says with a heavy sigh.

"He'll show you, isn't that right?" Lori spoke up from beside the RV door. Rick looked at her and then at the ground before looking back up and saying "I'm going back".
