The zombie apocalypse. Sounds ridiculous to most people...until it actually happens.

They were all on tour when it begun: Black Veil Brides, Avenged Sevenfold, Pierce the Veil and Falling in Reverse.

The four bands were thrown into a world where the dead ate the living and the living fought the dead and sometimes the living as well; they didn't know any different and it had become their lives.

After they'd all been split up from their initial band mates and groups, they travelled for months before they all managed to meet up with one another again; whoever had been separated now had a group. Andy ended up in charge of one of the groups, Synyster Gates got the second group.
With the initial threat still out there and roaming around, waiting to take its prey and make them into walkers as well, all they strive for is survival and in a world such as this, it's not that easy.
After travelling for so long, one of the groups end up finding another lot of survivors; they're leader was named Rick Grimes.

Will everyone be able to survive and count on one another, or will something happen to turn each person against each other and make them all go their own separate ways to try and take their chances within the ruined world that the Earth had now become and that everyone once knew?All Rights Reserved

To reunite the small girl with her family. But when she does finally stumble across the group, which was slowly falling apart at the seams, she can't seem to leave them. Something in her decided to stay and help. That and a brunette woman... NOTE: I LOVE Maggie and saw no x reader fics, so I decided, hey I'll write one. I will do a male reader one if requested!

ribs || carl grimes x reader by fckmka

You knew Carl from before all this happened. Your moms were best friends and would sip wine on your back porch while the two of you played pretend in the backyard. The day the world went to shit, you were dismissed from school early and Lori had to take you home. You never thought you'd see Carl again after you slid that mini van door closed... ------------------------------------------------------------ ~ENGLISH ISN'T MY FIRST LANGUAGE so I apologize for anything I may get wrong! ~each chapter is named after a song that fits the vibe ([name] - [artist]) making a little playlist by the end of the book! (the title is a reference to Ribs by Lorde btw [Carl Grimes coded song imo]) ~also this work is now cross-posted on AO3 and Quotev, so feel free to check it out there if you'd prefer!

Both fathers took charge leading their respective communities. Both younger sons stayed by their father's side and did as they were told, while the elder ones tried to keep the peace inside. And when both mothers met their fate the fathers took the world by storm. In another world they most likely would've gotten along, but as they were just so similar it's truly no wonder why they hated each other so much. ༻❁༺ (Featured on the Wattpad Tik Tok Trending Reading List!)

Never The End (Sequel to 'What Keeps You Alive') by TheWalkingDaryl

Everyone's been forced out of the prison, Andy and Ashley out on their own, Ronnie and Matt in the complete opposite direction, Vic nowhere to be seen when CC finds himself stuck within the remains of the prison with Glenn; the walkers everywhere and making it near impossible for them to be able to get out and back into the world. Will everyone be able to survive long enough to find a new sanctuary, and for that matter, will it ever be as good and secure as the prison? Where're all the other people that sought refuge within the walls of the prison? Where have Arin and Gates managed to get themselves to over the past few months? Will Andy and Juliet get back together or will he refuse to even look at her forever after what happened between them? The main question though: Will everyone survive? ***Sequel to 'What Keeps You Alive (Walking Dead cross w/bands)' *** ***Possibly slow updates again; sorry***

Days Go Bye | Rick Grimes by PatheticFckinfool

The world as we knew it came crashing down with the outbreak of a deadly virus that caused the dead to rise and seek out human flesh. Amidst the chaos, Rick Grimes was presumed dead, and his wife and son were forced to flee the city to stay alive. Accompanying them was Lori's closest friend, who took on the responsibility of caring for her friend's son alongside her in the absence of his father. When Rick unexpectedly returned, the friend showed immense relief, even more so than his wife. As they struggled to survive in a world overrun by the undead, they found solace in each other's company. They slowly began to develop a deep emotional bond, having shared numerous losses, one of which pushed them closer together than all the others. {WARNING THIS STORY MAY CONTAIN GRAPHIC/MATURE CONTENT, IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO ANYTHING SKIP THE CHAPTERS WITH WARNINGS OR READ WITH CAUTION, ALL TOPICS THAT ARE MENTIONED WILL BE APPROACHED WITH CAUTION - THEY MAY CONTAIN - SEX - SEXUAL CONTENT- CHEATING - TORTURE - MURDER - SCARS (POSSIBLE SH RELATION) - POSSIBLE MENTIONS OF SA - ZOMBIES - REANIMATED CORPES - APOCTOLYPTIC WORLD - ABUSE - CHILD DEATH - ADULT DEATH - AND OTHER MATURE CONTENT OF THE SORTS.} Started: July 2024

Beyond Terminus (Book Two) by hope_forever_18

The world has changed...or ended. It depends on how you look at it. The undead roam the streets, hungry, never full. They search for human or animal flesh to fill the void of their bottomless guts. One bite and you're doomed; doomed to become one of them, unless your brain is destroyed. Now we know that, even if you die, you turn. What would you do to keep your family safe? A lonely girl, a broken redneck, and a group of people so different you'd have never thought they could get along. Hope cares for her group more than she has ever cared for anyone ever before, and she is willing to do anything to protect the ones she loves. When she finds out that she's expecting a baby, she only grows more determined to keep him or her safe. Along with this, she's dealing with the new experiences that come with being a wife to a certain redneck. Daryl wants nothing more then for a world where Hope will be safe, away from harm, and there's nothing threatening to take her away from him. With the extra knowledge of Hope's pregnancy combined with the new role of being a husband, he's determined to be a better man. For her, he feels like he has to. Once again, Hope and her group must find a way to survive, like they already have been for years. Once they get out of Terminus, all they have to do is find the next safe haven. Then, they see how long it lasts. Book Two in the Apocalypse Angel Trilogy
