The Walking Dead Imagines

Strength

Lucy Smith. A bright minded, confident, observant young woman. Her mother had cancer, death at the door. When her mother, Lucille, died. Her father, Negan, left Lucy to fend for herself. After her father left, the world decided to take a turn for the worst. As if anything could get worse. The dead are living again and eating everything and everyone that come in their path. Now, Lucy has been on the run from the geeks since the beginning.

She searched for her father for a long time, but to no avail. She eventually just gave up and started focusing on the one thing her mother told her before she died. "Don't let him forget." She sighed, her parents weren't the best. Her father drank their money away and her mother would take most of the beatings. But after she got cancer, he drank more, cheated and beat her more often than not. She shakes her head of those thoughts and continues forward, going faster on her bike.

She gets off her bike and sighs, feeling the cool air against her skin. She hears a branch snap behind her and quickly turns around, pointing her bow and arrow in the direction of the noise. She squints, looking at the treeline. Then a geek comes stumbling out, groaning. She lets the arrow fly and it hits it in the head, through the eye. She takes her bag off and looks through it, pulling out some jerky and eating it.

*Time Skip*

I ran into some people while driving around. They all introduced themselves but I honestly can only remember a few of their names. "You can come with us," Glenn, I think is his name, told me with pleading eyes. I look at all of them and sigh. "Fine." And with that, we set off towards a place that a kid, Noah I think it was, said was safe from the geeks. Well, they call them walkers. We eventually get to Alexander, or something like that. I have selective memory. The gate closes behind us and we're immediately swarmed by people.

I tense up and grip my bow in my hand. "Who's this?" A man, who looks well shaved, asks. Glenn takes a step forward and explains how they found me. "Well, I'm Rick. Rick Grimes." I nod and look around, seeing how everybody is looking at me weird. "L-Lucy." *Little Time Skip* I've been with this group for a while now. I've gotten close with a few people. Carol, Rick, Glenn and his wife Maggie, and Daryl. Recently, Daryl and I have been going out on runs together. Right now, we're on our way back to Alexandria. "That;s terrible." I chuckle.

He grunts and focuses on the road. "Why'd you use poison oak? You couldn't use anything else?" He rolls his eyes. "I didn' know wha' it was. Plus, I was nine." I shake my head, a small smile on my face. He glances at me and clears his throat. "So, what'd ya do 'fore everythin'?" I think about his question for a minute and then sigh. "Nothing." He scoffs and stops the truck suddenly. He turns to me. "Tell me. And don' fuckin' lie." I turn away from him and bite my lip. "It doesn't matter. Lets just go." And we continue back to Alexandria, in silence.

*Time Skip*

Everything happened so fast.

Negan was threatening Rosita, he wanted to know who made the bullet which ruined his precious Lucille and, before I could blink my eyes, a shot was heard and Olivia was falling to the ground, with a hole on her face.

I spaced out. Olivia was so innocent, she deserved better.

I couldn't hear what Negan was saying to Rick, anger took the control over my body:

"How could you?! You already took everything from us! HAVEN'T YOU DONE ENOUGH TO OUR PEOPLE?! You're a fucking monster!"

I could feel Rick restrain me while I cried and screamed at the man with the baseball bat.

Negan just grinned at me: "Oh sweetheart. I'm just getting started." he then walked toward me, I could feel his breath on my face: "and I believe I taught you not to talk back to your father." I glare at him. "You're not my father. I was never happy with you. I'm happy here with Daryl and Rick and this group, they're my family now."

"Once I fuckin' come back to the Sanctuary, I'll make fuckin' sure to let him know how tough his girl is; maybe I'll let him have a little chat with Lucille ".

I was taken aback.

He will hurt Daryl because of my outburst.

I was so scared that I just fell to the ground, I couldn't speak a word, my mind wandered to my beloved Daryl and what Negan will do to him.

Finally Rick decided to stand up against Negan and his Saviours, that's why we're heading to The Hilltop.

The first person I meet is Maggie, I can't stop myself to run to her and give her a hug: "I'm fine, the baby is fine".

I can't help but smile at her, she smiles back: "There's someone who really wants to see you."

At first I'm confused but then I notice that she's looking to the left and that's when I see him.

Daryl comes out from a hut, with Jesus.

I run into him, almost knocking him down and I start peppering his face with kisses:

"I thought I would never see you again".

He kisses me sweetly: "I fough' fer ya, I fough' fer us."

Right now, in the arms of my love, I found the strength to fight with my family, for our freedom.
