Savannah born CJ Jefferson, 33 years of age when the dead rose and the living began to fall. Her father, a former corporal in the army, raised his 2 children to be able to survive and adapt to any and all situations. At the end of the world, after losing everything and trapped in the city belonging to the fallen, CJ is rescued and brought to a group of strangers she grows to love and protect. But when everyone is so busy worrying about the dead, it's easy to forget that the living are just as dangerous. ***** "I used to think I could see everything that was coming for me, but apparently my mind has a blind spot," "No one coulda' seen any a' this comin'. But just 'cause you can't see it, don't mean you ain't ready." "I'm sorry I called you an asshole. You might be a prick but you're not an asshole." "Gee thanks" ***** OC x Daryl Dixon Book 1 of 2 (Seasons1-8)

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!
