One infection causes the society to crumble like a cookie. No military, no economy, no leaders, nothing. No one is coming to save you, no one is there to help. Everyday is a struggle for Mariah Beckon, her adopted brother and sister not making it any easier. When the trio cross paths with a group from Atlanta, she meets the people who she belongs with, her family. As the group of people fight to survive, Mariah falls head over heels for one man in particular. No matter how hard she tries she just can't seem to forget that redneck. This is a story of many things: love, betrayal, hatred, death, but the most important of all, surviving. I do not own any of AMC's The Walking Dead characters, however everyone else mine, do not copy ANYTHING please. @Copyright 2013.

The end of one world is only the beginning of a new one. [Daryl Dixon]

It was clear the second she turned up at the prison that she was one of them. That she was a Dixon. Her brown hair, her greying blue eyes. Almost everything about her screamed Dixon. - When a girl, around Carl's age, turns up at the prison, people start to talk. Bella Riley... Dixon? It has to be true. Everybody asks the same question, and only one person could answer it. Does Daryl Dixon have a daughter?

Faith, or so she goes by now, has been wandering the zombie-infested world by herself. She's survived, she's never had to protect anyone. Just how she likes it. She has turned down every offer to come into a group. She's never even wanted to. But when Rick's group meets her on a supply run, she gets taken back to camp, and she meets the mysterious Daryl Dixon. His brother is the high school bully of every nerds nightmares, and when he notices her and his brother are attracted to each other, he orders her to stay away from her. But she can't. And neither can he.

You are the main character in this story. You meet Daryl in the woods, and become part of his group.
