I am forced to live against my will, with people I barely know. Everything that I've ever loved has been taken away from me, leaving me to survive with a group of strangers. All I want is a reason to live, and maybe he will be my reason. Gemma Jenner is the daughter of Dr Edwin Jenner of the CDC, who is attempting to find a cure for the apocalypse. When a group of stragglers approach the CDC for answers, they take them in. However the group discovers that the answers are not what they expected and what they were looking for. When the death of her father forces her to survive with this group, she reluctantly begins to make connections with these people, amongst them Daryl Dixon. Gemma and Daryl are polar opposites and seem to be everything the other hates. But will the current situation of the world draw them together and help them see past their differences?

Merle Dixon never needed anyone. Neither did Harlow Dalton. But when the world goes to shit, all bets are off. (Merle Dixon/OC) #wattys2015 #feels

Beatrix and Daryl had never met before. In fact, they lived two completely different lives. Beatrix lived in the city, right beside of the hospital, which is where she spent most of her time. Her favorite thing to do at work-besides work, of course-was to talk to her patients and the nurses. She had never been in trouble a day in her life. She had a perfect record, not even being stained with as little as a speeding ticket. Daryl lived in a secluded cabin, at least three miles away from any civilization. The only time he ever talked to anybody was when he was forced to at work. He was constantly in and out of jail, mostly taking the blame for his older brother, but nobody knew that except for him. He destroyed the name Dixon. You couldn't have picked two people that were more different. What happens when the apocalypse brings them together? Will they ever be able to be together? Or will the apocalypse destroy them, just like everything else? Disclaimer: I do not own The Walking Dead or any characters/idea from the show.
