A cabin in the woods
A gruff voice replied, "This is Catch Nail."
Troy's eyebrow's shot up. Catch Nail, Floyd Earl Hogan, was the notorious co-founder of the MC. Hogan had escaped from the US Marshall's transporting him to trial eleven days prior to the dead rising. He had the usual 1%-er resume; murder, arson, extortion, narcotics trafficking, narcotics distribution, illegal firearms manufacture, murder for hire, auto theft, receiving stolen goods, and a partridge in a pear tree.
He had was supposed to have been gunned down in one of the early clashes between the defenders of Ringgold and the Crows. The sheriff had claimed it had been the source of the two parties agreeing to avoid one another months back. Troy wasn't so sure of that if this was indeed Catch Nail.
"My man tells me you are stragglers." The gruff man said. "Is Ringgold open to new management? If I kill the dead will anyone dispute my claim to the town? I don't want to kill you people if I don't have to. Will I?"
Not far away, straining to here, Alexi determined two things immediately. The first was that there was a rather brutal and complex history between the people in the cabin and those on the radio. The second was that he had truly stumbled into the heart of Dixie judging by the slow draws and exaggerated vowels.
Among the survivors in the shadows of the cabin, people seemed captivated and terrified all at once. The adults passed the name, Catch Nail, between them with much anxiety.
