When the world ends and the dead start roaming the earth to eat the living, what exactly would you do? How would you survive? And when the living are just as dangerous, if not more so, who are you willing to put your faith and trust in to survive? Or is it best to brave this new world alone?
For Y/n, the answer to these questions were simple. The only person she trusted in this world, both before it ended and after, was herself. As for surviving, she had her own ways and despite being from the city, she was rather...resourceful in the ways of survival.
Unfortunately, luck is not always on your side when you need it most and she was stuck in Atlanta during the outbreak. In the chaos of death and the military turning its backs on the people they swore to protect, she had to find a way to survive all on her own.
She eventually found her way out of the city and wandered the highway, figuring it was best to stay away from both people and the dead alike and take her chances on her own.
She wandered for months and avoided both people and walkers at all costs. She stuck to the woods, hunting and living in them to survive, but little did she know, this small decision would sway her path in an unexpected way.
By chance, she comes across a young girl in the woods, in trouble, injured and alone. Much like herself, the young girl was looking for someone, her mother and her group. Unwilling to leave the girl be, she decides to help the young girl find her family. Little did she know, this one decision would change everything...
To trust a stranger and come together to survive, or brave it alone? To let others in, or save yourself from getting hurt?
Y/n has a lot of choices ahead of her...
And none of them will be easy.

Daryl Dixon x Grimes! Reader
YN is Ricks younger sister. Before the outbreak she was a cop just like her brother. After Rick got shot and ended up in a coma the world fell apart. The dead came back and started attacking the living. The military fell too quickly, the city was overrun by the dead and now she was at an old quarry only a few miles outside Atlanta with her Sister-In-Law, Nephew, and her brothers best friend. On the way they met a few more people and now had a small group. She slowly grows close the the youngest Dixon brother, Daryl. When they get back from their hunting trip Daryl learns his brother was handcuffed to a roof and left in the city. But what had YN in complete shock and not knowing how to deal with it is the person who did it. Her brother was alive after she already Mourned his death. She blames herself for not double checking to make sure he was really dead or not. Luckily she has a list of rules and guidelines she has been working on as the days of living in a post apocalyptic world with the living dead to keep her busy. And it doesn't hurt to focus on a certain redneck too.
