Story Notes:
I don’t own the Walking Dead or anything about it…I don’t make any money off of this…etc. etc. It’s just for fun. The only thing I own are my original characters.
This is going to be an eventual Caryl story. I want to make sure that everyone understands that by that I mean that eventually the two will be a couple, but it’s not going to be anything quick or immediate by any stretch of the imagination. So settle in and enjoy the story and know it’s coming but it’s not here yet and it’s not just ahead.
This story is going to pick up just after they’ve left Hershel’s farm. I’m reinterpreting what’s already happened and what will come to suit my own desires for the story. That means that though I’m keeping lightly to what happened in Seasons 1 and 2, there will be changes. Also, I’m going to keep some of the action of Season 3 as it happened, but most everything is subject to change to suit my needs. I just want you to know in case you’re someone who’s bothered when people don’t follow the story lines rigidly. They certainly won’t be followed exactly in this tale. There is also an OC that’s going to play a large role in the story. If you’ve read my story Phantom Hearts, then you already know Alice. If you haven’t then you’ll be meeting her soon enough. If you know her already, though, know that she is like the other characters and changes to fit her new setting.
So here’s the first chapter, just to set the mood and get us introduced a little to what we’re dealing with. I’ll try to have something else up for you soon, since if you know anything about me then you know I love having a million things going on in life!
I hope you enjoy, and let me know if you think you’re going to be interested. I appreciate all reviews since they are really the only form of payment any of us receive for fanfic writing and they make me anxious to get more out to the people I know are writing.
