Survival of the fittest (A One Direction,TWD, and TVD zombie apocalypse story)

Dangerous Liaisons

Previously in Survival of the Fittest...

Lia's POV:

  We could help eachother. I could provide these humans with protection and help them lead a safe, happy life where they could raise that child here in peace, and they could provide me with sustenance (blood). Granted they might object to it at first, but it is the safest way to go about things here. Just as they all finally relaxed, I decided to make my undetected presence known. "Well, well," I smirked as they all snapped their heads towards my direction, "Now what do we have here?" 

Lia's POV:

  As soon as the words left my lips, a man with shaggy brown hair, in a vest with wings and a fearless expression pointed his crossbow at me. Despite his quite disrespectful behavior, I smirked since he was quite attractive. Rick stood in front of Lori and Carl and the rest of the group watched on warily. "The hell did ya come from??" Crossbow man questioned me in a prominent southern accent. "I've been here all this time." I answered, "Why are you at MY prison?" "We just need a place to stay." Rick says. "Ah, Rick! I was waiting for you to speak up. It's been a while hasn't it? You look much better now." I said observing his brave stance. "H-How do you know my name?" He asks me. "And how did ya get past all these walkers if you're on your own?" Crossbow man interjects while coming closer to me with the crossbow.

  I ignore Mr. Crossbow and continue talking with Rick. "Oh come now, this is no way to greet your savior now is it Sherriff Rick Grimes?" I say playfully. "We've met haven't we?" Rick responds. His forehead wrinkles in concentration as he struggles to remember, then a sign of recognition flickers through his eyes. "At the hospital!" He says excitedly, "I had a dream about you. That was real wasn't it?" "It was, I saved your life that very day. You're welcome by the way." I answer. "But how? I was in a coma." He asks confused. "All in good time my friend." I respond. "But why are you all here?" I refer back to the group he is with. "We've been on the run for months." Rick explains, "Going from place to place, never able to stay somewhere for more than a day. My wife is about to have a child. We're all just tired of running. We just want a place to stay and call home."

  "How ironic isn't it, that a sherriff is wanting to call a prison "home"?" I say. "Please, let us stay," Rick pleads. "First, tell Mr. Grumpy here to stop pointing his crossbow at me." I say nodding in Crossbow Man's direction. "Ain't no way." Crossbow Man says. "Daryl please, put it down." Rick tells him. Hmm so his name is Daryl? I still like Mr. Crossbow better. Daryl obliges grudgingly. "You still haven't told us who you are," An old man said kindly, "And how you made it this far." "Or how you saved Rick's life!" An asian man pipes up. "My name is Lia Petrova and well, let's just say that I'm very special." I tell them. "Special how?" The Rick's boy, Carl asks.

  I smile at the boy before turning to everyone else. "You never told me who you all were by the way." "You never asked!" Daryl says harshly. "Ignore him," the old man speaks up again. "Well Lia, my name's Hershel. These are my daughter's Maggie and Beth." He points to a teenage girl with curly blonde hair and a young woman with short brown hair. "I'm Glenn." The asian man says. "I'm T-Dog," a black man says, "That's Carol," pointing at a woman in her forties with very short hair. "That's Daryl," points at Mr. Crossbow, "And well you already know Rick, thats his wife Lori and his kid Carl." he finishes. I nod, mentally noting everyone's names with their faces.

  "Lia," Rick says softly, "If you don't mind, how did you make it past all of those walkers and how did you wake me from my coma?" Time to tell the truth now. I turn to him and say, "Well Rick, tell me, have you ever heard stories about the creatures that go bump in the night?" "The hell ya talking about?" Daryl asks. "Well there really is no easy way to say this." I turn, addressing the entire group, "Do you believe in vampires?"
