12 Merle

Turning back to Rick I noticed that he was talking with Shane, now that he knows that his family is safe and secure. He seems to be relaxed and calm, like anyone else after not meeting their family for a long time he wants to hug them and comfort them. But he tells me he wishes to rescue the survivors from the campus as they helped his family in and are in trouble for trying to provide food for the camp. The little Rose also wants to save them, with all of us agreeing to help the survivors trapped in the store. We made our way down to the street where the store was located. 

Even from far away we can still see that there are many walkers gathered around, all of them seem to be gathering near the front door. Heading towards the back of the store while the walkers follow the jeep nearby. I told Rick that I will clear out the nearby area, he only needs to clear out the stragglers with the help of the survivors inside the store. If they find a car it's great he can go to the camp and contact me through the walkie-talkie to let me know the location or wait for me. Dropping Rick, Ross at the back door of the store, I make my way to the front again. I start honking, drawing their attention to me as the walkers slowly make their way towards me. While attracting them away from the area I keep watch to not leave that many behind. 

Making a couple of laps around the many streets I found a tunnel nearby which was not that long but it was there for the train tracks. I can block ¾ of the path with the Jeep leaving narrow enough space for two Walkers to walk across, making up my mind I speed up, park my Jeep in a way that it blocks the path. Turning to Dawn, Thor, Rex, Fenrir, I tell them that "dad was going to teach them how to farm some Z coins". 

Turning my attention back to the walkers I see that two have made it cross, kicking the first one on the chest knocking it down to the floor I stabbed the second one in the head with a knife, pulling the knife back I stabbed the one on the ground. Turning back I started stabbing the walkers, it took me a whole hour to farm all the walkers. Stabbing the last walker in the head I moved back to the group of ungrateful brats as only Rex was helping me while the others watched on.

Yesss, that's what I'm talking about. Putting the weapons back into inventory, I fix them back to shape and walk back to grabbing the walkie-talkie, Hey Rick you there. I got the reply that he was worrying but still waiting for me in the store. Pulling back the Jeep for my little lady Dawn, while others hop on. I move my way back to the store. It seems that Rick and others are ready to leave but I don't see Merle. Even this time he was still cupped to the roof because of his stupidity. Telling them to get ready to leave, I head up to the roof to grab Merle and Tdog. When I got up to the roof T dog had already lost the keys, and was looking for them. I told him that I was with Rick and I asked him what happened. He told me that while Rick and Rose approached them, it seems Merle had other plans as he was up there shooting his gun, attracting more and more walkers. 

Rick got angry as Merle was endangering the other survivors. Had a little shuffle with Merle and that's how Merle ended up hand-cup to the roof. I'm telling Tdog to get ready to leave. I turned to Merle who was running his mouth off about N**** that and so***bit**h this . While I made my way closer to him he still didn't shut his trap. I asked him why he was making it harder for the group. He told me he wouldn't be lectured by a child and that I should go back to my mother. Pulling my arm back I punched him right on the jaw, dropping 1 of his front teeth. Holding his bleeding mouth he kept yapping so I gave him some more shots to the body, he dropped to the ground holding his stomach. 

I know the type of person Merle is , he is the type who barks with little strength but when he meets someone stronger he will surrender. Only way to subdue him is by showing superior strength. 

I grab his hair and make him look at me while I talk to him. Do you see where all your wrapping has brought you. I know that you don't want to work with them, but now you will be working for me. Try keeping it in mind that I don't like trouble makers. If s*** with Rick group doesn't work out I may as well have a backup as I can get NPC from the store that will replace the crew, and their loyalty is without question but having Merle is good as he has what it takes to survive in this hell.
