"Where are we going?" I ask Glenn from the driver's seat, "There's an abandoned 2 story Walmart about 200 yards up, go ahead and pull over, we'll have to walk from here" Glenn says, I pull over and run around the back quickly grabbing my bow, I slide my quiver over my neck and plant it on my shoulder, I adjust it to fit so it's comfortable.
"Merle you go to the roof, Jacquie, Andrea, Morales you search this floor and gather anything useful, T-dog, Jade and I will go scope the bottom half of the building, remember guys get clothes, but not too many, get batteries, toiletries, feminine stuff, get any weapons you come across, and anything else important. And stay close to each other. We'll meet back up here" he says and we all head off.
We reach the bottom level and I start browsing the clothes and hygeine isles, I gather what I can in my 2 back packs. I come across some great combat boots, and I put them on, I slide on some multi-pocketed black jeans and a black tank top, with a light jacket. I checked my reflection in the mirror, I looked pretty badass. I get some things I think would fit other people in the group and I grab a few toys and some books and things for the kids, I then head over to the weaponry isle, I about scream in joy when I find 2 whole boxes of bolts and arrows, I quickly shove all of them in my bag and fill up my quiver with arrows, I grab 2 extra quivers, and that's when I see it. This gorgeous crossbow, I grab it and examine it, I wonder if Daryl would teach me how to shoot, I sling it over my shoulder and look at the knives, I put some knives in a few of the pockets I have in my jeans, and I replace my boot knife, and then I look at the guns, "Hey Glenn!" I call, he rushes over, "How much room do you have in your bag?" I ask, "I have just about 2 bags free, why?" he asks, "Let me see em'" I say and he hands them over, I shove a few guns and some ammo in them, its getting too heavy. I see a gun bag on the shelf, "Grab me two of those" I say, he hands them to me I finish loading them up. We get T-Dog and decide to meet up with everyone where we came in.
We hear gunshots coming from the roof, "Oh God, is that Dixon?" Andrea says and we all dart upstairs, I'm carrying 3 bags across my shoulder, and 2 in my hands, "Here. let me help" T-Dog offers, I hand him 2 from my shoulder, "Thanks" I say, "No problem" he says and we reach the roof, "Merle, what the hell is wrong with you?" Andrea exclaims walking up to him, "Nothing, just lettin' off some steam" he says, "Yeah, well your letting off steam is gonna get us all fucken killed" I exclaim, T-dog steps a little too close to Merle and before I know it a full out fight breaks before my eyes, I don't hesitate to pull Merle off of T-dog, I drag him off and slam him back, "Goddammit, This is not what we came here for. We don't have time for your bullshit!" I yell at Merle looking directly into his eyes, a hint of fear flashes through them but is quickly replaced with anger, "O.K. Blondie. Jeesh, settle yourself" he says, I back up, "Don't tell me what to do" I spit and go over to help T-dog.
"There's a guy out there, we have to help him" Glenn exclaims from the roof railing, I run over, sure enough there is a figure sprinting down the streets, firing off rounds like its new years, what a moron! He runs over to the tank and gets inside, ok, he's definitely a moron, now he's screwed. '"Ok. Glenn, your the navigator, how can we help him?" I ask, "I say we just let him die, we didn't come here to save some moron's ass" Merle says, "Yeah, well I didn't ask for your opinion, now did I? And besides you're a moron too. Up here firing off rounds for no reason" I snarl, he puts his hands up in surrender and backs up, "I'm not risking my ass for him" he says, "I didn't say you had to" I say and turn back to Glenn, "I'll go by myself" he says, "Hell no. I can't let you do that" I say, "It'll be fine, I'll use the walky to lure him to the emergency latter on the side of the building and then we'll come back up here, it's that simple" he says, "Glenn, I'm trusting your judgement, but are you sure you want to go alone?" I ask, "Yes. I'm faster on my own" he says, I hesitate but hand him the Walky, he smiles and twists the nob.
"Hey you... Yes you...In the tank" he says and waits for an answer, "H-hello? Can you see me?" the guy says, "Yes. I'm looking at you right now. Look your best chance is to come out of the top left of the tank, jump off and run North down the street, there's an alley, I'll meet you there, hurry" he says, "Thank-you" the guy in the tank says, "Yeah yeah, hurry up and get your ass there. I'm not going to wait all day" he says and hands me the walky before sprinting back inside the building. "Are you ok with this?" Andrea asks, "Of course not, but what choice do we have, we can't just leave him there" I say, she smiles and gives me a hug before going over to the bags and retrieving a water, "Toss me one" I say. "Hey sugar tits. What do you say we go make some magic?" Merle says, I spin around and see he's talking to Andrea, I nod for her to pull her shirt up, "Hey Merle do yourself a favor and shut the hole in your face before I shut it for you. Permanently" I say looking at the street.
{Glenn's P.O.V.}
I sprint down the steps and run across the floor, then down out the door and down the emergency ladder, then out to the gate, the guy comes rushing past dressed as a sheriff. "Hey, hey over here!" I say, he spins around and runs in , I lead him to the emergency latter and start climbing, he stops to look at the walkers below, "Hey, moron, what the hell are you doing? Climb" I say he snaps out of it and climbs. We reach the ledge, I look up at the taller latter along side the building, "Hope your not afraid of heights?" I joke, he chuckles, "At least it'll be the fall that kills us" he says and we start climbing.
{Jade's P.O.V.}
They made it! I think to myself, as soon as he gets up here we are leaving. "Man that'll be the day" Merle says, "What?" T-Dog asks confused, "That'll be the day. When I take an order from a n****" Merle says, T-Dog gets up, "Do you have a problem with me!?!?" T-Dog exclaims, and they go back to fighting, I let out and exasperated growl, and run over. I jump on Merle's back and wrap my arms around his neck, he slams me back first against the brick wall, I gasp but continue to hold my grip, "LET GO OF ME!!" he screams, "Not until you stop!" I shout back, he slams me against the wall again, Someone grabs him from the front and slams him on the ground. I get up and wince at my elbow, I think it's broke. Andrea comes rushing to my side, I brush her off, I glare at Merle who is now handcuffed to a pipe, "Let me off this damn pole!" Merle screams, "Not until you learn to behave you peice of shit" Andrea says.
Great now I won't be able to shoot my bow, "I was right, you are an asshole" I say to Merle as I walk back to the door, "Where are you going?" Glenn asks, "To try to find a sling, my fucken elbows broke!" I yell over my shoulder, the new guy follows me down the steps. "I don't need any help" I say, "I know, but I wanted to ask you a few questions, you seem like the leader of this group" he says, "No. You should be talking to Glenn" I say walking to the first aid isle, I find a sling and rip the package open, I put my arm in it, "Do me a favor and hold this bag open for me" I say to the new guy, he holds the bag, I throw some medications and first aid stuff in the bag, considering I went to school to be a nurse, I grab some braces and gauze, and a few scissors and whatever else I can scavenge.
"Thanks" I say taking the bag from him, "The name's Rick. Rick Grimes" he says, Oh that's funny. Lori and Carl have the same last name, But that has to be a coincidence Lori's with Shane, I keep my thoughts to myself. We head upstairs, "Is this your whole group?" he asks, "No, we're just out on a run" I say plainly, "How many do you have in your group?" he asks, "About 15" I say, we stay silent for a moment, "Ok. My turn, what's with the sheriff getup?" I ask as we enter the roof, "I'm from the sheriff's department, I am the sheriff. I woke up in a hospital bed yesterday and these guy and his son took me in, they left, I grabbed my stuff and drove my car to town, it ran out of gas and I had to ride a horse here, it got devoured by those things. And well you know the rest" he says, I smile, "Yes. I do. Your lucky that horse of yours got devoured and not you" I say bluntly, "Ok guys, we can't go out the same way we came so we're going to have to leave that car. So we have to find another route, Glenn take the binoculars and scope out, see what you can find" I say laying the bag I just got over with the rest, "I see a UHAUL truck, but that's just about it" He says, "Ok. How many walkers?" I ask, "Too many. There's no way we're gonna be able to kill them all" Glenn says and sets the binoculars downs frustrated. I sit down with a sigh, "T-dog keep trying the walky" I say.
