Apocalyptic | Daryl Dixon |
"Hey you alive in there?" The voice questions I pick up the radio quickly
"Hello? hello?" I ask urgently
"There you are you had me wondering" the man says relived
"Where are you? Outside? Can you see us right now?" Rick says grabbing the radio from me
"Yeah I can see you, your surround by walkers, that's the bad news" the radio cackles
"There's good news?" Rick says back
"Well that's great" I sigh out
"listen whoever you are I don't mind telling you we're a little concerned in here" ricks says getting agitated
"Oh man, you should see it from here you'd be having a major freak out" the man over the radio says, that's helpful i think to myself rolling my eyes
"Got any advice for us?" He questions hopelessly
"Yeah, I'd say make a run for it" he says I grab the radio angrily
"That's it? Make a run for it?" I grit out
"My ways not as dumb as it sounds you've got eyes on the outside here, there's one geek still up on the tank but the others have climbed down and joined the feasting frenzy where the horse went down, you with me so far?" He asks
"Okay the street on the other side of the tank is less crowded, if you move now well there distracted you stand a chance, got ammo?" He questions
"In that duffel bag I dropped out there and guns can I get it?" I reply back
"Forget the bag ok? It's not an option what do you have on you?" He asks
"Hang on" I drop the radio going to grab the gun Rick got from the army dude checking its clip theres only 15 rounds...shit I sigh going to check the army man's body when I find a Grenade oh hell yeah I think handing it to Rick going back over to the radio picking it up
"I've got a Beretta with one clip, 15 rounds" I say worriedly
"Make em count, jump off the right side of the tank keep going in that direction, there's an alley up the street maybe 50 yards be there." The man says back
"Hey what's your name?" I ask curiously
"Have you been listening? Your running out of time" he says rushed, right I think to myself I let go of the radio looking over at Rick
"You ready?" I say looking at him nervously
"As ready as I can be" he says also nervous I grab a baseball bat and give Rick the gun sense he's worse at killing walkers I go to open the top of the tank I take a deep breathe before pushing it open I look out and see the walker at the top swinging at it making it fall to the ground I push myself out looking back to make sure Rick gets out, we head down the tank jumping off at the bottom I immediately jump into action swinging at walkers rick shooting them, we're heading down the street when I go to swing at someone in an alley
"Not dead! Come on! come on!" I stop mid swing running down the alley with him Rick trailing behind watching our backs
"Come on!" The man says climbing up a ladder i go up first rick still shooting
"What are you doing come on!" I say looking down at Rick he runs out of ammo throwing the gun starting to climb once we get halfway we take a break I look Down seeing how many walkers there are
"Holy shit" I sigh out of breath
"Nice moves there Clint Eastwood" the man says looking at me I smirk
"You the new sherif riding in to clean the town up?" The man asks Rick I huff a chuckle out
"It wasn't my intention" Rick says out of breath
"Yeah whatever yeehaw, your still dumbasses" the man says rolling his eyes
"Rick, Alex, thanks " rick pants out going to shake the man's hand
"Glenn, your welcome" he says shaking ricks hand
"Uh guys pause the love fest for a second" I say pointing towards the walkers starting to climb Glenn goes to the ladder looking how far up it is
"Bright side, it'll be the fall that kills us" he says looking at me
"What a nice bright side" I say smiling sarcastically Glenn smiles back as we all start to climb. After what feels like forever we get to the top walking over a board to the next building over
"Are you the one that barricaded the alley?" Rick asks
"Somebody did-I guess when the city got overrun, whoever did it was thinking not many geeks would get through" Glenn says as we start to run over to a ladder down into a building Glenn opens the top throwing his backpack into it
"Back at the tank, why'd you stick your neck out for us?" I say looking at him suspiciously considering we still only just meant
"Call it foolish, naive hope that if I'm ever that far up shit creek somebody might do the same for me, guess I'm an even bigger dumbass than you guys" he says climbing down the ladder I look down smirking and start to climb down, when we get to the bottom we run through a exit climbing down some stairs
"I'm back, got two guests plus four geeks in the alley" Glenn says into a walki-talki we reach the bottom of the stairs to see walkers roaming I start to panic when some people with bats come out killing them
"Let's go!" Glenn shouts me and Rick running after him into a metal door
"Morales let's go!" Glenn shouts looking back at the man in amour with a bat swinging at the walker, he runs over closing the door swiftly
"You son of a bitches we outta kill you" I look up to see a gun pointed at me and Rick by some blonde lady
"Just chill out Andrea, back off" Glenn says trying to diffuse the situation
"Come on ease up" morales says taking off his armor
"Ease up? Your kidding me, right? We're dead becuase of these stupid assholes" Andrea says angrily
"Andrea, I said back the hell off" morales saying coming up to her she thinks for a moment before dropping the gun starting to tear up
"We're dead-all of us becuase of you guys" she says frustrated
"I don't understand" Rick says confused
"Look, we came into the city to scavenge supplies you know what the key to scavenging is? Surviving! You know the key to surviving? Sneaking in and out, tiptoeing not shooting up the streets like it's the o.k. Corral" morales says pushing us into a hall way leading us into a department store shoving us towards the windows
"Every geek for miles around heard you popping off rounds" he says gesturing to the hoard of walkers outside
"You just rang the dinner bell" Andrea adds
"Get the picture now?" Morales asks annoyed I look at the window scared seeing the glass start to crack under there weight but then one grabs a rock and starts smashing the glass
"Oh god" I say us all backing up
"What the hell were you doing out there anyway?" Andrea asks us
"Trying to flag the helicopter" Rick's says
"Helicopter man that's crap there ain't no damn helicopter" some guy with a do rag on his head says
"You were chasing a hallucination imagining things it happens" another lady with short black hair says
"We saw it" I snap not liking feeling crazy
"Hey, t-dog try that c.b. Can you contact the others?" Morales tells the man with the walki-talki
"Others, the refugee center?" I question
"Yeah the refugee center they've got biscuits waiting in the oven for us" the short haired girl says sarcastically which makes me roll my eyes
"Got no signal, maybe the roof" t-dog suggests when we hear a shot from above
"Oh no is that Dixon?" Andrea says freaking out a bit everyone starting to head for the stairs
"Come on let's go" Glenn says following the group up the stairs to the roof, when we reach the top I see a blading grey haired man shooting a rifle
"Hey Dixon are you crazy?!" Morales yells, the man continues shooting
"Hey! Y'all be more polite to a man with a gun!" He looks back yelling over at us
"Huh only common sense" he says dropping down from the ledge he was on
"Man you wasting bullets we ain't even got! And you're bringing even more of them down on our asses! Man, just chill" t-dog yells running over angrily
"Hey! Bad enough I got this taco-bender on my ass all day now I'm gonna take orders from you? I don't think so bro that'll be the day" the man with the gun says
"Oh great a racist" I mutter to Rick already hating the man
"That'll be the day, you got something you wanna tell me?" T-dog questions
"Hey t-dog man just leave it it ain't worth it, now Merle just relax, ok?" morales sighs out
"You want to know the day?" Merle ignores him continuing
"Yeah" t-dog stands up taller
"I'll tell you the day, Mr."yo" it's the day I take orders from a nigger" Merle says but before he can even finish t-dog attacks him but Merle's to strong he punches him back almost knocking him to the ground
"Dixon!" Andrea says trying to stop it, rick goes over to help but Merle just punches him in the face making him fall back
"Oh hell no" I mutter out seeing this asshole hurt my brother going over to him but when I get there Merle slams t-dog against a pole him groaning in pain on the ground every one rallies around trying to stop him but when he pulls out a gun and points it at t-dog we all pause
"Yeah! All right!" Merle says on top of him spitting on him
"We're gonna have ourselves a little powwow, huh? Talk about who's in charge I vote me anybody else?" He continues getting off of him
"I vote no you racist piece of shit!" I yell at him he turns around pointing the gun at me now
"And who is this fine piece of ass?" He says smirking licking his lips I visibly recoil in disgust, well he's focused on me they pull a groaning t-dog away from under Merle
"Don't talk to my sister like that" Rick comes up behind Merle punching him to the ground handcuffing him to a pipe dragging him upwards by his shirt
"Who the hell are you man!" Merle says slightly scared
"Officer friendly" Rick says sarcastically going to grab his gun discarded on the ground unloading the clips in it
" look here Merle, things are different now there are no niggers anymore no dumb-as-shit inbred white-trash fools ether only dark meat and white meat theres us and the dead, we survive this by pulling together not apart" rick finishing his speech reloading the gun
"Screw you man" Merle replies
"I can see you make a habit of missing the point" Rick smiles looking at him harshly
"Yeah we'll screw you twice" Merle spits out at Rick
"Ought to be polite to a man with a gun only common sense" Rick grits out pressing the gun into Merle's head cocking it
"You wouldn't your a cop" Merle says but I can tell he's slightly scared
"All I am anymore is a man protecting his sister and looking for his wife and son, anybody that gets in the way of that is gonna lose I'll give a moment to think about that" Rick says looking Merle dead in the eyes, reaching into his pocket he finds coke he grabs his face looking up his nose
"Got some on your nose there" Rick says flicking his nose
"What are you gonna do? Arrest me?" Merle says laughing but stops when he sees Rick starting to walk towards the edge of the roof throwing the coke off the building
"Hey! What are you doing? Man, that's was my stuff!" Merle shouts angrily
"Hey!" He grunts trying to get lose from his handcuffs
"If I get lose you'd better pray-yeah you hear me you pig?!" Merle shouts over to Rick as he walks over to the ledge, me and morales start walking over
Yeah your voice carries!" I shout back annoyed
"You're not Atlanta p.d, where you guys from?" Morales questions
"Up the road a ways" rick sighs out
"Well officer friendly and officer friendlies sister from up the roads a way, welcome to the big city" morales says looking towards all the walkers down below
"God, it's like Times Square down there" Andrea sighs out as we come over towards the group
"How's that signal?" Rick questions
"Like dixons brain-weak" t-dog says looking towards Merle which makes Merle flip him off
"Keep trying" morales says
"Why? There's nothing they can do not a damn thing" Andrea says looking at me and Rick still blaming us I roll my eyes wanting to say something but bit it back watching her walk away
"Got some people outside the city is all, there's no refugee center" morales says looking at Rick
"Then she's right we're on our own it's up to us to find a way out" Rick sighs looking back towards me
"Goodluck with that these streets ain't safe in this part of town from what I hear, ain't that right sugar tits?" Merle smirks looking at me
"Oh pets names hm what would yours be let me think....small dick? Yeah small dick fits you" I say smiling sweetly at him his smile drops gritting his teeth
"What about under the streets? The sewers?" Rick says to morales looking at Merle harshly
"Oh man...hey Glenn check the alley you see any manhole covers?" Morales ask Glenn
"No, must be all out on the street where the geeks are" Glenn says
"Maybe not, old building like this built in the 20s-big structures often had drainage tunnels into the sewers in case of flooding down in the sub basements" I say looking at them they stare at me confused
"How do you know that?" Glenn asks
"I payed attention in school" I say shrugging
"Ok well let's go then" rick says heading towards the stairs
"Hey what about me!" Merle yells
"T-dog stay with him" Rick says t-dog groaning but nodding
