Rogue has never felt like a girl that belonged. The outcast of her own family, experiencing heartache and abuse at a young age and to top it all off the world hits the dirt before she can really get to know who she really is. Now she's running with the most unlikely group of people that'll teach her loyalty, betrayal, love and family. Follow Rogue's story through the Walking Dead as she discovers that even in darkness there is light, you just have to follow the butterflies.
This will be my adaptation of The Walking Dead, Timeline will be similar but some events will be changed to fit my story. This will not be word for word. I hope I can give the characters justice. I do not own The Walking Dead or the cast aside from my own character, Rogue Taegans. This fanfiction goes out to all the she, hes and theys that love themselves a sleeveless grumpy hunter.

Dead bodies walked the Earth, and the living had two options; band together and live, or turn on one another, and die. Tori makes friends (and enemies) within the group she finds herself a part of. One man stands out as the most irritating, yet the one who also has the biggest heart of all of them. They drive each other crazy, but craziness is to be expected at the end of the world. She battles the harsh realities of the new world, as well as the internal struggle that continues to cripple her mind and body alike. *** [Daryl Dixon x OC] [Sexual Content] [TWD - Season 1-11] [Started 6/7/2023] [Finished ???]

That is, until she finds a small girl lost in the woods... Learning the girl had lost her group, Y/n, for the first time in a long time, was willing to find people. 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! I also plan to make a carol one cuz she's a queeeen! Obviously all characters belong to twd minus any oc's I may add. This will be updated DAILY! Hope you enjoy!

Bandwagon of Death || Daryl Dixon x OFC

I picked up every article of clothing as I heard the water streaming from behind the curtains. Folding her clothes near where she kept her shoes, I stripped off my clothes and stepped into the shower with her. My hands wrapped around her waist, as I stuck my face in the crook of her neck. I started to do a trail of kisses up to the back of the ear. The tension on her shoulders started to break slowly as I kissed each inch of her skin. I'd been so worried about how she is mentally doing since the death of Lori. She hadn't processed much after the little nugget was birthed. She jumped into action immediately after, coming with me to get formula, and didn't stop until we got back to our mattress. She didn't sleep much, and I followed her out as she let out what she had been holding all day. I also have been holding back something for the past couple of weeks. And I want to be able to tell her, but with everything going on, I'm not sure when it's the appropriate time. Hell, the words have never been formed in my mouth. Not even with my brother. So instead of talking verbally, I let myself speak physically. Her body turned to me, giving me a heated kiss. When I pushed her to the wall of the bathroom, it was game over for both of us. - - - The Walking Dead AU Daryl Dixon x OFC 𝐁.𝐃.𝐃. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐜 (𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏)
Desert Rose ➳ D.D
"Oh, kiss so sweet, so fine You could hear the music inside my mind And you showed me a place I'll find even when I'm old." .·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·. .·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·. .·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·. **IN PROCESS OF EDITING** When a zombie apocalypse breaks out and wipes over half of the population, Rose is left alone to take on this new world as it unfolds. She knew it would be difficult, for things to not work out the way they once did, turning in ways she never would've expected. But what she really didn't expect was to come across more survivors like her. Not only that, but the journey that would come right along with it. This book is based off of the TV show The Walking Dead. I don't own the storyline or any of the characters except for my OC. There will be some changes that I have made here and there, but most of the storyline goes to AMC. Some chapters can have triggering things and there will be a ⚠️ at the top of the chapter for a warning. Please let me know if there are any spelling mistakes or errors so I can go back and fix them. Comments are always appreciated<3 ❧ Daryl Dixon x OC Hope you enjoy!
Survivor (Paused Temporarily)
Previously known as Savior 《TWD Fanfiction》 "He's a monster." "How can you say that? Look at him!" ... "Would a monster protect children that weren't his own!? Wake up, Lori! He's not the monster here, Shane is!!" When the dead start to walk, it's survival of the fittest and Alexander has no problem with that. But can he keep the darkness lurking at the surface at bay while keeping his sanity? Patience and humanity are tested as everyone is trying to survive and keep their loved ones safe. This loosely follows season 1 and season 2 of The Walking Dead. Further than that it's my imagination, most of the characters in further seasons will gradually be added as the story progresses. The dialogue will not follow the show or the comics. The ages won't follow the show. Some of the characters will be younger and other characters will be added. The Walking Dead belongs to AMC. OCs belong to me. ⚠Warning⚠ ● Violence ● Death ●Blood ● Sexual content ● Sexual harassment ● Attempted sexual assault ●Very strong language ●Child Death ●Miscarriage TWD timeline is nonexistent. (More modern timeline.) All translations might not be accurate, so I apologize in advance.

TWD: Just Another Boy to Discover (Carl x Reader)
"Because I needed to put them out of their misery," you respond. His intense, bright, blue eyes. His sleek, long, brown hair. His smile that's hard to hate. You just can't get enough. When it started, you were independent, only Flare was there to accompany you. However, just like that, you join a group. Rick and his gang. It wasn't expected, but you can't leave. You couldn't leave. Carl is your bodyguard. He's been ordered to keep an eye on you. Ever. Since. Day. One. ... It all happened when you were raiding an abandoned, old shed. That's where you crossed paths with none other than Carl Grimes. His distinct features remain engraved into your brain and despite thinking that love makes one grow weak; you begin to develop feelings for him. Regardless of what others may think, you continue to pursue him. However, when the group encounters various challenges that test loyalty, trust and courage, you wonder if it's actually meant to be. ... "Carl," he stops and looks at you. "Get away from her." "Why?" Carl simply asks. "Come here," Rick tells him. Carl looks over at you, then Rick. He shakes his head no. "I didn't ask you, I'm telling you." Rick grits his teeth. Carl reluctantly obeys. You watch him as he leaves eyes never loosing contact with his. Rick shuts the door cautiously. As soon as you hear it shut, you stroll over to the door and press your ear against the thin wood. You could hear Rick's faint voice. "Carl. Keep watch over her," he whispers. "She's dangerous." "What do you mean? She's a kid. Just like me. What makes her any different?" Carl defends you. Your heart begins to thud. He's protecting you. Just like what any and every body guard should do. ... A touching fanfiction decorated with intricate detail, heart-racing action scenes and a painful yet deliciously sweet storyline. The only advice I give to you before reading is to prepare yourself both mentally and emotionally. For yours to read and cherish.Complete
