A/N: So, I have thought about doing this and here it is!! This is a series rewrite for The Walking Dead. I DO NOT own twd or any of the characters. So, no copyright infringement or whatever is intended at all. This is going to be a reader insert and I will do it episode by episode. Some days I may post a couple at a time, and then I might not post it for days on end. Please, let me know what you think of this. And as always, feedback and any kind of CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM is welcome. However, if I get any hate, you will be ignored and I won’t post whatever you say. Also, let me know if you want to be tagged in anything!! And I will most likely make a separate Masterlist for this specifically that will be linked in the regular Masterlist(eventually). My Request box is always open. This will most likely get gruesome at some point, so if you get queasy by the thought of blood, I suggest you read something of mine that doesn’t involve it. Read at your own risk. Thanks for reading!!

It was the day after the walker attack, and Andrea hadn’t really moved. She was sitting next to her sister’s body, holding her hand. Lori had just tried to talk to her, to get her to move and let them make sure she wouldn’t turn. But she didn’t even react to her words.
“Andrea, sweetheart. You don’t want to see or watch her turn. It is not good to watch. I don’t want you to have to see that.” You said, trying to tell her that youo needed to do it. She only shook her head. You watched as Daryl hit the dead in the head, and T-dog and Glenn moved the bodies. Then when Rick tried going over to her, she pulled a gun on him and told him she knew how the safety worked. He backed away slowly. Once he was far enough away, she put the gun down. You knew she was grieving. She almost could not handle her death. You were hanging back with Shane and Rick, when Jacqui said that Jim got bit, that a walker got him. You all got up, and he grabbed a shovel, trying to protect himself. T-dog went behind him and held his arms in place while Daryl, lifted his shirt to check. And indeed, there was a bite. You were shaking your head after seeing it, and looking down at the ground. Jim kept repeating ‘I’m okay, I’m okay.’ After all that mess, they were discussing some things, while you went back to Andrea.
Before she could tell you to go away, you said, “I came over here to be with a grieving friend. Not to tell you what should happen.” She nodded her head at your words, and you sat down on the opposite side of her. After a few moments, Dale came over and said that he wanted to pay his respects, and sat down with you all.
“Have I ever mentioned, how I lost my wife?” Dale asked.
“Cancer, wasn’t it?” Andrea responded, unsure though.
“Yeah. I-I dragged her to every doctor, e-every test. And, after all the surgeries, chemos, she was ready. She accepted it, ya know.” Dale said. “But I never could. And I spent the last few years, so angry. I felt so cheated. Since she passed, you girls, were the first people, that I cared anything for.” After he said his piece, Andrea reached into her pocket and grabbed the neckalce. “This is her birthday.” He said as he suddenly realized. She nodded in response to his words.
“Her birthday was always like a week long affair. But I always somehow, missed it. I was away at college, too busy for kids parties. She’d call all excited. I always said that I’d make it home, and I really always meant to. But, I never made it past that phone call. "Andrea said.
"You know, things are hard enough for you, without adding guilt into the mix, huh.” Dale said. She then got the necklace out of the paper, and was placing it on her sister. You and Dale both got up, and were walking away, so she could be alone. You saw that Carol was the one to make sure her 'husband’ didn’t turn. She put the axe into his skull a few times until she stopped and she was crying a bit. You were sitting with Dale and Carol when you noticed that Amy had turned. She was awfully close to Andrea, but you all just sat back and were watching what was happening. Then, she got her gun and pulled the trigger after placing it against her skull. You watched her, and she seemed better than she was earlier. She probably really was supposed to be the one that did it. You had then went and joined Lori and the others, making sure everyone was okay. You had been one of the last people up to where they were burying the dead, and you stood with Shane, and everyone was crying and mourning their deaths. After the bruials, you had stayed back at the camp with Lori, Carol and Andrea, along with the others. You and Andrea had fallen asleep, which you didn’t even realize how exhausted you were. And the sounds of nature were just a background noise as you slept.
You had slept through the night, and was woken up by Shane. He had to shake your shoulder, and told you that you were all leaving. You got yourself and your things ready to go, and made your way outside. You were ready to go, and had your motorcycle in the back of Daryl’s truck, alongside his, and you planned on riding with him. You tuned them all out, and Morales had decided to not come with you all. You had gotten in the truck with Daryl and were following behind the RV for some time, when the hose of the RV had busted. This caused you all to stop. You and Daryl both had your bows ready, for anything. Shane had went with T-dog to go and see what was at the gas station that seemed to be just up ahead. And Jim was getting worse. You stepped in for a moment, and heard Jim say that he wanted to be left where they were to die. You smiled empathetically at him, before stepping back out.
“He wants to be left here to die.” You say to Daryl.
“Yeah, I would too.” He replied. They discussed what he wanted and what was gonna happen, and Lori told them it wasn’t their call, that it was Jim’s. You had stood back and away, letting everyone say their good-byes. You could tell everyone was saddened that he wasn’t going to be with them anymore. And so, you all had him propped against a tree, and you left him there.
After even more time, you all had come to a stop. The road was barricaded, and there was dead on the sidewalk and the street. So many dead bodies. There were flies all over. And then you began to make your way over to the buildings, with your weapons ready. It was getting darker out, and you all were approaching a building that was most likely the main CDC building. There were gates pulled down and locked, and then there was a walker that had gotten up. Daryl shot and killed it before anyone else could. Then Shane was saying it was a dead end. And he had also told Daryl to shut up. Rick was going a little crazy, and we all thought nobody was here. He began to bang on the gate, creating noise, which meant walkers. He was also slightly shouting. We were going to need to be able to leave, but we couldn’t leave any of them behind. Rick was still shouting, and Lori and Shane were trying to get him to stop, while the rest of you were prepared to start shooting the walkers. When Shane was having to forcefully drag Rick away, that was when it opened up. There was a bright light, and it blinded you all from seeing what was inside. And you all were staring in shock at the scene in front of you.

A/N 2: Holy shit this is long. I'm watching the episode while writing so that I can write as I'm watching which is surprisingly easy and good. And I'm also using quite a bit from the show in dialogues, hardly changing the wording.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You had made it to a building, and decided to climb up it, to get a vantage point. While climbing, you never looked down, knowing that would be bad if you did. You got to the top after a little bit of climbing, and began to look around. You looked down at a corner, and saw a tank, and walkers crawling all over each other to get to something on the ground. What it was, you couldn't tell, but you thought it was Rick's horse, and hoped to god not him. You were observing the other buildings, seeing ways to get from one to another, when you caught a glimpse of a man standing on top of one near the roof you were on. Your eyes narrowed and you saw him talking, with you assuming he had a radio. After a bit, he went down a ladder. That's when you saw and heard commotion from below. The top of the tank opened, and you saw someone get out. You paid little attention to them, as you started to jump to buildings to get to where that man had been. Once there, you let out a sigh, and noticed they were coming back up the ladder. The man and Rick. You sighed again in relief, and they came up. The unknown man's eyes widened immensely, before he began to talk.
"Who are you and how did you get up here?" He asked.
"Y/n. And I climbed and jumped the buildings. Glad to see you're still a dumbass Rick. Least you're still alive." You respond, and they laugh when you call him a dumbass. "What?"
"That's just what I called him for getting in the tank. And I'm Glenn by the way. Now, let's go." He said. You grinned at hearing that. He began to lead you and Rick to a hatch that lead inside.
"Did you barricade the alley?" Rick asked.
"Nah, probably someone who was around right before the city went and not many geeks get through here." Glenn replied.
"Hey uh, back at the tank, why'd you save my ass back there?" Rick inquired.
"Foolish, naïve hope, that if I'm ever that far up shit creek, somebody might do the same for me. Guess I'm an even bigger dumbass than you," He responded again, while dropping his bag down and then made his way down, with you and Rick behind him. He lead you two through a room in a building, then out and down some stairs, while taking the radio and telling his group that he was coming and that he had two guests. At the bottom of the stairs, you three stopped as there were a few walkers there. They froze, but then, from a door, two people came out with armor like clothing, and a baseball bat each, and smashed their heads in. They ushered you in, and Rick was suddenly grabbed by a blonde woman, and she had a gun in his face.
"You son of a bitch, I oughta kill you." She said.
One of the guys that were wearing the armor spoke up, "Just chill out Andrea, back off."
"C'mon, ease up," another woman said to Andrea, the blonde.
"Ease up? Yeah, and we're all dead because of this stupid asshole."
"Oi. Knock it off sweetheart. Yes, he is a dumbass, but you kill him, and I kill all of you. Don't think I won't." You said, pissed that she had the nerve to put a gun in his face, the one person you had any sort of relationship with.
She looked at you, before the guy from earlier spoke up again, "Andrea, I said back the hell off." He waited for a minute before saying, "Or pull the trigger." She backed off.
"We're dead, we're all dead because of you," Andrea said, shaking her head, with tears in her eyes.
"Wh- I don't understand." Rick said, before he was taken by the arm, and told what they had been doing.
"Listen, we were sent in to scavenge. You scavenge to survive. You survive, by being sneaky and quiet. Not shoot the place up like the O.K. Corral." He said, and then Andrea spoke once more.
"You just rang the dinner bell." She said, and that's when you both noticed the walkers at the storefront, blocked by glass doors.
"Get the picture now?" The man from earlier spoke once more. The walkers were pounding on the glass, and were close to breaking it.
They all moved back, before they began to talk again.
"What the hell were you doing out there anyway" Andrea inquired.
"Was trying to see the helicopter," Rick said, before he was almost interrupted by the other woman.
"You were chasing after a hallucination, it happens." She said, and Rick quickly spoke again.
"No, I saw it." He said. That's when you all heard a gunshot.
"Oh no, was that Dixon?" She groaned. You all began to move , you and Rick following the group. You moved up a stairwell to the roof. There were more gunshots, that sounded like a rifle, and you all burst through the door.
"C'mon Dixon, you crazy?!" One of the men said.
Dixon, merely laughed, before saying, "You oughta be more polite to a man with a gun. Huh. Only common sense."
Then, the other guy, who had yet to speak, said, "Hey, man, you're wasting bullets we ain't even got man. And you're bringing more down on us, man chill."
Dixon replied with, "Man, it's bad enough that I have this taco-bender on my ass all day, and now I'm gonna take orders from you? I don't think so bro. That'll be the day."
"That'll be the day? You got somethin' you want to tell me?" He said, and then armor guy stepped in yet again.
"Hey, T-dog, man just leave it." He said.
"Naw man-" T-dog started, but was cut off.
"It ain't worth it. Now Merle, just relax. Okay, we've got enough trouble." He said. Glenn, you, and Rick shared a look, while Glenn just shook his head.
"You wanna know the day?" Merle asked.
"Yeah." T-dog replied.
"I'll tell you the day mister yo. It's the day I take orders from a nigger." Merle told, and T-dog went to punch him, but was dodged, and then Merle knocked the butt of the rifle on his face. T-dog fell back, and everyone rushed forward. Rick got too close, trying to intervene and prevent it, but was punched hard by Merle and thrown back as well. Merle kept attacking T-dog while the others just voiced their disapproval and to not do that. You walked over to him, not exactly realizing what you were doing. Merle had T-dog on the ground, and was repeatedly punching his face. You stopped his hand before it met T-dog's face, and Merle looked up at you. That's when you reached back quickly and punched him, most likely breaking his nose. He was shocked and slightly afraid, especially because you had no emotion while doing it. Since he had been thrown away from you from the power behind your punch, he didn't go back near you. That is when Rick stepped in. He dragged him over to the pipes, and handcuffed him.
"Listen close Merle. There are no niggers, and no dumb as shit in bred white fools either. There is only white meat, and dark meat. Us and the dead. We survive this by pulling together, not apart." Rick said, while messing with the gun.
"Screw you man." Merle said.
"I see you make a habit of missing the point." Rick said.
"Yeah, well then screw you twice." Merle replied.
"Better be polite to a man with a gun, only common sense." Rick said, copying his words from earlier while pointing the gun at him.
"You wouldn't. You're a cop. One of the good guys." Merle said, not scared or shocked.
"All I am, is a man, looking for his wife and son. Anyone who gets in the way of that is gonna lose. I'll give you a moment to think about that." Rick said, and took the gun away, while he searched Merle's pockets. He found drugs and commented, "You've got some on your nose there," and flicked his nose.
"What're you gonna do, arrest me?" Merle asked jokingly. Then shouted incoherently while Rick threw the drugs off the roof. He began to walk away, while Merle was shouting, "Do you hear me?"
"Yeah your voice carries," He said. You walked with him on one side while Morales, was on the other.  
"You're not Atlanta PD. Where're you from?" He asked.
"From up the road a ways." Rick responded.
"Well, Officer Friendly, Welcome to the big city." He said, while they looked out to the streets with all the walkers. "And what about you? You seem to have had training of some kind, and no officer I have ever seen, can have those kind of weapons. Nor that kind of poker face while punching a man."
"I worked with the CIA. I was allowed a clearance to have my own artillery of weapons for different jobs." You answered. When you all finished talking, you walked back over, and he asked how the signal was.
"Like Dixon's brain, weak" was the response he got. Merle flipped him off, and you grinned at the sarcasm, but also bad news.
"Keep trying." Rick said.
"Why? There's nothing they can do, not a damn thing." Andrea said in response to his words before walking off.
"Got some people on the outside is all. No refugee center." He said.
"Then she's right. It's up to us to find a way out." Rick said.
"Good luck with that. These streets ain't safe in this part of town I hear. Ain't that right sugartits. Hey, honeybun. Lets say you get me out of these cuffs, we go off somewhere, and bump some uglies. Gonna die anyways." Merle said snarkily.
"I'd rather" She replied.
"I thought as much. Figured as much" Merle said dejectedly.
"Streets ain't safe, now that's an understatement." Morales said.
"What about under the streets. The sewers. " Rick suggested.
"Oh man." He said, before turning around. "Hey Glenn, check the alley. Do you see any manhole covers?" Glenn got up and jogged over there.
"No, he said, after a few moments of searching. "They must all be out on the streets where all the geeks are."
"Maybe not," Jacqui said right after them. "Old building like this, built in the twenties, big structures often had drainage tunnels into the sewers in case of flooding, down in the sub basements."
"How do you know that?" Glenn asked.
"Its my job. Was. I worked in the city's zoning office." She said, and that's when you all decided to go down and see if anything could happen.
Once you all were there, you had flashlights, and Morales asked, "You sure this is it? This is the right one?"
"Yeah, I've scoped this place out many times, it's the only thing that goes down. But I've never gone down it. Who'd want to right?" Glenn replied. He had a disgusted look on his face, which disappeared to mixed grimace and sadness when we all turned our heads to him. "Oh. Great."
"We'll be right behind you." Andrea said but was stopped by Glenn.
"No, you won't." He said. "Not you."
"Why not me?" She asked. "Think I can't?"
"That wasn't..." He said, but trailed off.
"Speak your mind." Rick said.
"Look, until now, I always came here by myself. In and out. Grab a few things, no problem. First time a bring a group, everything goes to hell. No offense. If you want me to go down this hole, fine. But only if we do it my way." He said. "It's tight down there. If I run into something and need to get out quick, I don't want you all jammed up behind me, and get me killed. I'll take one person. Not you either. You've got Merle's gun and I've seen you shoot. I'd feel better if you're out there, watching those doors, covering our ass. You've got the only other gun, so you should go with Rick. Jacqui, you stay here and yell if anything happens. Y/n, I think I would like you here with me. I've seen you do stuff that not many can do, and you're fast. Sorry Morales, but she is very fast. And she's quiet and pretty fearless. So, Morales, you stay here with Jacqui, and flit between the both pairs."
"Okay. Everybody knows their jobs." Rick said, and gave Glenn a reassuring pat on the shoulder. He nodded before putting the flashlight in his mouth and heading down the ladder. You grabbed another and did the same, following him down. You both were now holding your flashlights and making your way through the sewer. There were rats on the ground and he made a grimacing face and noise. You both had kept moving forward and found a grated area. There were bars that were grated, and it looked like you couldn't get past them.
"Well, we have ourselves a sewer tunnel. Jacqui was right." You say, while Glenn got closer to the gate.
"Can we cut through it do you think?" He asked unsure.
"If we had a blowtorch and half a day we could." You reply. "The hacksaw I saw earlier though certainly won't do it." That's when you saw the walker eating the rat, and he reached through the bars. You and Glenn were quick to jump back, and he let out a gasp. You made your way back through the pipe and back up. You both heard the sound of glass breaking and saw that the walkers had managed to break through the first set of glass doors.
"Did you find anything down there?" Rick asked.
"Not a way out." You replied.
"We need to find a way." Andrea said. "Soon."
They were looking at the construction site, seeing the trucks there, and Rick said they always had keys on hand.
"But we'll never make it past the walkers." Morales said.
"You helped me out of the tank," Rick said, but Glenn shook his head.
"They were feeding then, they were distracted." He said.
"What if we make another distraction?" Rick asked. "They're drawn by sound right?"
"Right. Like dogs. They hear a sound and they come." Glenn replied.
"What else?" Rick inquired.
"Aside from they hear you, they smell you, see you. And if they catch you, they eat you." Morales said.
"They can smell us?" Rick asked.
"Well, yeah. They smell dead, we don't." Andrea replied, and then Rick had an idea.
"This has got to be one of the most dumbass plans you have ever come up with. If there was an award for dumbest plan of the year, this one would get it." Glenn said. They were gathering up gloves and long shirts. They planned to open up a walker or two, have the blood and guts on the shirts, and then go out there amongst them, while getting to the truck. Once Rick and Morales managed to quickly drag a dead walker inside, they began to cut him open. You, Rick, and Glenn planned on going out there alone. With walkers blood and guts all over you.
Rick began the process of cutting the walker up. Then, everyone began to put guts and blood all over the three of you.
You all had made it out and they didn't even know you weren't dead. That is, until it began to rain. You had been faster, but not by much, so when you felt the rain hit your face, you began to go even faster, until they knew you were alive. You kept running and going, and didn't look back until you were free of walkers. You had talked to Rick before, and told him you were going back for your bike and go bags. He knew what would happen, so you knew he would tell the others to not be worried. You got on the highway and waited for one of them to come by you. You told them both exactly where your bike was, and that you would  follow whichever came to you first back to the group. You somehow had managed to miss the car that Rick had, so you waited for Glenn to appear. And appear he did. In a beautiful red car. That had an alarm going off. Classy, you thought. You quickly sprung into action and followed after him, matching the speed he was at. You looked over and grinned at him, seeing the awestruck look on his face.
