The glowing lights shined bright, blinding me from seeimg who was talking. "It seems we have a family reunion" I squinted as the dust and mist from the fires cleared.

"Merle?" I beamed as I saw him standing beside an angry looking guy with a bandage on his eye and around his head. The angry looking guy spoke again "it seems these people came to get their people and in the process killed many of our own" I glared at Merle for hanging around such a dickhead but then my eyes landed on Daryl as he stared at Merle in disbelief.

You could see him gritting his teeth and clentching his Fist so hard that his knuckles started to turn white.

I lifted my head and noticed that the guy was still talking, I frowned "let us go!" The guy stopped talking and glared at me. That's when I caught on.

Angry guy, Merle sucking up to him, leadership roll.... "You're the governor. Look dude, we just want his brother back" I nodded my head I Daryl's direction which staring at Merle. The 'governor' smirked "brother?"

You could see the evil clogs working in his head. "It seems somebody has come to rescue their brother" he turned from the crowd of people to Merle. "You will show your respect towards me and Woodbury by going up against your own brother" I saw Merle's face drop instantly, I thought he wasn't going to do it. That was until he de-attached a knife that was screwed on a metal stump.

I whimpered "no" I started towards Daryl but the governor ordered someone the hold me back "NOOOO! Daryl! You son of a Bitch!" I turned and glared at the governor as a dude held my arms so I couldn't get away.

I was forced to watch the brutal attack towards Daryl but he was.... Taking it? He wasn't doing anything to defend himself. They were fighting surrounded but walkers on chains. I knew Merle wouldn't kill Daryl but I had to stop the insanity, they're brother.

I swung my leg back and kick the guy holding me straight between the legs. I stumbled towards and ran straight into Merle's fist. I was about to go face first into a snarling walker when an arm grabbed me back. I turned and noticed Merle standing a couple of inches away from me, Daryl was too busy pushing a walker away. I frowned but Merle just turned to help Daryl out of this mess.

One thing led to another and foggy mist was everywhere. Daryl finally found his crossbow and we escaped with the help of Merle who followed us out of the hell hole. A couple of miles away from the exit we met up with Rick, Glenn and Maggie. I smiled and ran up to them, giving Maggie a hug and Glenn a high five but when they saw Merle their faces dropped.

"No way, absolute not" Glenn refused to share the same car as Merle let alone the same prison. I frowned and sat on the bonnet of the car, this is gonna take awhile.

The arguing last for what seemed like ages, Daryl stated that he weren't going nowhere without Merle and I ain't going nowhere without Daryl. Rick knocked Merle out for being cocky which sure brought a smile to my face as Merle has never changed a single bit.

"Wherever Merle goes, I go. I lost ma brother once, ain't hell I'm losing him again" that's when everything went silent,I tried to hold in my laughter as Merle popped up behind Daryl. "Daryl, you don't have to do this" Maggie finally spoke up "no, but I do. I don't expect any of ye te understand" my face then dropped. Rick gave him a slight nod and headed to the car.

"You're welcome at the prison any time" and with that he got in the drivers seat. Glenn held onto Maggie for support as Merle messed him up pretty bad. "Come on Jamie" I looked at Daryl with narrow eyes and then turned to Maggie who was waving for me to come.

I frowned (this is the hardest decision I've had to make during the apocalypse) and looked between them again. I looked to the floor before finally making my decision.....

I turned from Daryl to Maggie, I could see his face dropped out of the corner of my eye. Maggie smiled as I approached, I wrapped my arms around both Glenn and Maggie and nodded to Rick inside the car. I then turned and walked towards Daryl and Merle again. Daryl's face lit up which made me smile but I felt guilty about the others at the prison.

Merle nudged Daryl playfully, I tapped him on the back and we all turned to walk into the forest. I looked back just in time to see the others drive off bscl to the prison to the guys the news.

I felt gutted but I had to what I did in order to be happy and I am happy when I'm with Daryl and Merle's a great laugh. This should be fun.....

Sorry for the late update, I thought I updated it but turns out I didn't aha sorry again. I hope this chapter makes up for it.
