I added that mysterious magic has started appearing without her fully understanding or controlling it yet. My name is Austin Grimes. I'm twenty-two years old, the daughter of Rick Grimes, and I've spent the last four years hiding a deadly secret from the rest of the world. I'm a vampire. I was attacked and turned against my will. There was no hiding the truth from my family, but thankfully, I got all the good parts of being a vampire. I have incredible speed, unnatural strength, heightened senses, and I can even walk in the sun without burning. There's only one downside. I have to drink blood to survive. As if being a vampire wasn't strange enough, something else has started happening to me. Every so often, magic appears without warning. A flicker of power in my hands. An object moving when I'm angry. Something impossible happening when I need it most. I don't know where it came from or what it means. I only know it's getting stronger. My family accepted me, but Shane Walsh was the one who was always there when things became too much. He helped me adjust to what I had become, stayed beside me through the fear and hunger, and never once treated me like a monster. Somewhere along the way, he became more than my father's best friend. He became mine. Then the dead started walking, civilization collapsed, and the world became overrun with creatures that craved human flesh. For the first time since I was turned, I'm no longer the strangest or most dangerous thing hiding in the shadows. My speed, strength, and unpredictable magic could be the reason my family survives-but every time I use my abilities, I risk exposing exactly what I am to people who may decide I'm no different from the monsters outside the gates. Thankfully, I won't be facing the end of the world alone. Shane has always stood beside me, and the apocalypse isn't going to change that. Walkers aren't the only monsters left in this world. Some are alive. Some are undead.
