Ethan Barton is a teen boy living in a world gone to shit. His mom is the leader of a small group, a group that could fall apart any day. He fights to survive, and for his group to survive, but he also wants to live, and what's a better way to do that than falling in love? Carl Grimes, with his group shattered, his home in ruins, his family dead, and only three people and a large animal left in his life, he now leads his much smaller group away from the past. He's cold, broken, depressed, and pissed at the world. He doesn't want to live anymore. But will that change? Is there someone who can repair his brokenness? Is there someone who can make him want to love again? DISCLAIMER This is a completely different story from the show! I own everything except for the five characters from the show! All plots, and most characters belong to me! HOWEVER, I WILL BE REFERENCING STUFF FROM THE SHOW, WHICH I OBVIOUSLY DON'T OWN!
