The world ended, but people didn't. Not entirely. Twenty years after the outbreak, survival has become second nature. But when Althea agrees to help smuggle a girl across the country, everything shifts. There's Joel: quiet, brutal, impossible. The gruff, closed-off man with blood on his hands and grief in his bones. There's Ellie: foul-mouthed and sharp-eyed, with too much riding on her small shoulders. And there's Althea, stuck somewhere between running from her past and crashing headfirst into a future she never dared to want. Love isn't safe. Hope isn't smart. But some things are worth the risk. Because in the end, it's not about what you've lost, but what you're willing to fight for, even when the world seems beyond saving.

Proverbs 28:13-Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy. They say time should heal all that is broken, yet seven years have passed since you walked away from his hollow heart, and still the memories fester. The name 'Joel Miller' remains to taste like poison on your tongue, a wound that never learned to scar. But fate is merciless and against all odds, he crosses your path once more. And in the shadows of his return, one question waits with teeth... how long can you guard the secret you swore to protect?

After witnessing the death of your best friend Henry and his little brother, you're close to giving up and ending it all. Until Joel asks you to join him and Ellie on their journey across the country and gives you a reason to keep fighting. Or Joel falls for you and he falls HARD. But he hides it in fear of losing you too.

•••• "God, I have my father's eyes- but my sister's when I cry. I can run, but I can't hide from my family line." •••• Cara Miller left the community that she had helped her uncle and aunt build from the ground up- in the name of finding a missing friend in the ruins of the old world. She soon comes to the realization that she had bit off far more than she could chew, when she is suddenly thrown into a battle that she never should have been a part of. Love, sacrifice, selfishness and loss are the only things that she finds on her quest across the country after she reunites with her estranged father while he smuggles an immune thirteen-year-old girl across the country, in the name of finding a cure that could save whatever was left of the crumbled world. •••• LOVE INTEREST(S): Henry Burrell x oc, Oc x Manny Alvarez Oc x Jesse SEASONS: 1- EPISODES COMPLETE: 1 (not following Joel and Ellie in 1-4 tho!!)

She wasn't looking for redemption. He wasn't interested in salvation. A chance meeting leads to new alliances, but safety is only an illusion. Fate has made its move, but it will only carry them so far. After that you have to choose: fight or die. The world ended the day the dead rose. Can she build a life in what remains or is fate not done yet? (Daryl x OFC) ~ I tried to stay true to the characters, and with the addition of some original scenes, this will follow the TV show (eventually). There will be some minor and major changes along the way. Hope you like them. Enjoy!

Daryl never believed in fate. Never believed in things like soulmates, in people being made for each other. And if that kind of thing did exist - if the universe really did carve people from the same star, from the same bone - then Sybilla wasn't his. 𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵 @4𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘲𝘻 !!! 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓; ©𝙙𝙞𝙭𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙: 𝙛𝙚𝙗. 𝟭𝟲, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙: - ʚɞ updates set before twd time
