Keira is a survivor. She doesn't fall for tricks, she turns her back to the past and walks on. She carries secrets as her burdens. Guilt and sadness curdle inside her, but she's learned how to mask it. Cares and carelessness cause her to make mistakes, the mistakes that cost her dearly. But she's learned how to ignore it. She is alone and scared. She has nobody to cling to, and maybe she doesn't want anybody like that. Keira is a survivor, but maybe she isn't. Maybe what she's hiding will make her unhinge. She's clever, but she's naive. She's careful, but not quite enough. Keira is a ticking time bomb. Someday she's going to implode. If only there was somebody to fix her. • Ø • Ø • Page count: ~344 Word count: ~35,255 Grammar Nazis will be satisfied. Highest rankings: #1 on "carl grimes" tag!!! #59 on the fanfiction tag!!!

The Saviors. One would think they could live up to their name. The people on the inside do, but the people on the outside? The groups and camps getting ruthlessly destroyed? The people getting their skulls crushed just to get a point proven? The countless leaders living in fear of losing their family, their group? They all know differently. They all know how ruthless The Saviors can be. How ruthless their leader can be. But when one female has her life in danger, can he save her? ~~***~~ I do not own any characters in this story, only the ones I make up. All Characters of the Walking Dead belong to the creators and rightful owners, and my characters belong to me. Thanks for understanding.
