The Longest Mile (#Wattys2016)
"I think we archers need to stick together."
Sunny is just trying to survive like anyone else. The problem is, she's only 15 and lives with her dog. The father she only has memories of is leaving behind breadcrumbs for her to follow. That trail happens to be a series of journals.
But the next morning after a series of her traps go off, she finds there is unwanted company from the Wolves headed her way.
While trying to flee from the treehouse Sunny once called home, she runs into someone who is the closest thing to a friend at the moment. He is from a community, one she soon finds herself in after a short fight with the wolves.
But does Sunny really belong there? She questions her own ability to fit into a lifestyle she had left behind so long ago. Between finding the journals and trying to fit in, she discovers new things about the path that lies in front of her. The longest mile has never been so clear.
Where will the journals lead her?
To her father.................Or to her death?
"... I saved your ass twice in one day." With that, I started walking to Denise.
"You should watch that mouth of yours sunshine." Daryl called after me.
"Like you're any better pretty boy." I shot back, not even glancing behind me.

** the story is supposed to be based around season 6, but was started before 6 B aired, so it's mostly unscripted
