Trust The Living: Inspired By Events In 'The Walking Dead'.
Takes place starting in season 1 of The Walking Dead. I do not own any characters from that series, only the characters that I have written into the existing story. This story takes subtle liberties with events and dialogue, adding in characters when needed.
Now about the story...
Emma Miller never thought much about surviving until she was forced to. When the world turned into one full of the undead, she realized she was stronger than she ever knew before. Up until now, she had been on her own in the apocalypse. Trusting people wasn't something she was good at before the world went under, and it was even harder now.
She had lost her sister, not being able to get in contact with her when the grid shut down. She had planned to try to find her but found herself stuck in the city of Atlanta.
When she decides it's worthwhile to settle with a group, it becomes a journey for her that she never expected. She's taken off guard by these people. They show her kindness in a world where it seemed to be forgotten. She becomes taken with one of the members of the group. Someone who also seems wary of trust and love.
What will the future hold for Emma? Can she trust the living? Can she find her sister? Can she find love with a member of this group? Read and find out...

Norman Reedus Hey Reedus Readers, This is my first attempt at fan fiction, and I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I'm enjoying writing it. It is based primarily on the storyline from AMC's The Walking Dead, and uses the characters and relationships from the show. It begins just before the first battle with the Saviors (the end of season 7 of the show), and assumes the storyline follows Robert Kirkman's comic going forward. If you are not a reader of the comic, there may be some Season 8 spoilers here if the show follows the book closely.
