From the Shadows

Daryl/OC. Teagan is a harshly independent woman found by Daryl and Glenn. She fights to survive, and thrives on living by herself. When she meets up with Rick's group, built on cooperation and caring for one another, her lifetime ideals are tested. Is there more to Teagan than a cold, unwelcoming exterior?

Note: This story somewhat follows the events of The Walking Dead television series. Exact dialogue has been replaced with my own. There are a few drastic changes from the original story to this one. Eventual Daryl/OC relationship. Strong language and acts of violence. I do not own anything related to the Walking Dead.
