Ava sees the world fall apart as the dead start to rise.

-August 19 2010

-My father was sent home from deployment unexpectedly and he wouldn't talk about why he was.

-It was a week and a half away from my 13th birthday and my father was buying a bunch of canned food

-August 22nd 2010 my father bought this huge portable generator and hooked it up to the house. He started buying jugs of gas to put in it as well.

-August 26th 2010

-Are you okay dad, why do you keep buying all this stuff?

-Just in case we lose power, he says laughing nervously.

-I heard on the news last night there's been people biting people and trying to kill them. That's what you're worried about. How did you know about this before the news di-.

-Hey can you head into town? He says cutting me off before I could finish speaking and go buy a bunch of clothes with Cody and Hannah.

-Okay, I say worried.

-I don't really want to be in a vehicle with Cody but at least Hannah is going to be with us so he won't do anything.

-Me Cody and Hannah head out to Walmart with a list of everyone's sizes for clothes.

-Before we walk out the door my dad gives me a pocket knife and hands Cody a revolver.

-What the hell, Hannah says scared out of her mind.

-Yeah Thomas what the hell, Cody says.

-Just in case you go across any of the murderers, my dad says.

-Me Cody and Hannah get into Walmart and on our way there there's military vehicles everywhere.

-Can we just head back, Hannah says. This is scary.

-We have to get stuff. I say. We can't just come back with nothing.

-Cody can you at least bring the gun in with you, Hannah says.

-What are you fucking insane I'm not going to get arrested carrying a gun in to Walmart, Cody says. He throws the gun into the Glove box.

-Hannah if it makes you feel better I'll carry the pocket knife with me.

-Okay, she says.

-We walk into Walmart and it's a shit show. It's crowded with people buying food and camping gear.

-We rush around the store trying to get the clothes. Cody runs and grabs the last two tents that are there. It wasn't on the list but Hannah told him to grab them because everyone else was.

-We check out and before we go out the doors we hear people screaming inside the Walmart.

-We turn around to see and there's a woman getting teared apart by two of those things I saw on the news.

-Everyone in the store rushes out causing a mob. People are pushing people and walking on them. Me and Cody make it to the car with the stuff.

-Where's Hannah, I say to Cody.

-Shit, he says. He climbs on top of the car and spots her. She's over there. Hannah was on the ground because someone pushed her. Me and Cody run over to her as soon as it's safe to run without being trampled.

-Hannah gets up and tries to walk but she must have broken her leg and one of those things is right behind her. It bites her arm right before we get to her. Cody hits the thing off of her with a paddle he found before it bites her more. The thing isn't knocked out though it gets right back up. I pick the paddle and keep hitting it, giving enough time for Cody to pick her up. The thing keeps coming back so I run as fast as I can back to the car. Cody throws Hannah in the backseat and speeds off. A whole group of those things come out of nowhere. Cody speeds off as fast as he could.

-Call 911! He says yelling at me.

-Okay. I try calling but the phone isn't working.

-It's not working, I say.

-Fuck, he says and starts driving to Boston.

-We can't get into Boston because there's people driving out of it and military personal blocking going in.

-We can't get to the hospital so guess what Ava you get to put your medical knowledge to use for once, he says yelling at me. SAVE HER.

-I grab some napkins from the glove box and wrap one of the shirts around her arm to hopefully try to stop the bleeding.

-The bite is on her arm not very deep so hopefully she won't bleed out I say trying to calm, Hannah and Cody down.

-Hannah's burning up, I say to Cody.

-That makes him drive even faster back home. We get home in minutes and the neighborhood is nuts. There's those things everywhere.

-Cody carries Hannah into the house as soon as my dad unlocks the door.

-One of those things tackles me down and before it could bite me my dad rips it off me and shoots it in the chest. It's still alive so it gets back up and my dad shoots it in the head this time. It stopped when he shot it in the head; that must be how they die.

-Come on hurry up, my dad says and picks me off the lawn and rushes me inside.

-My dad has all the windows boarded up and when me and him get inside he board's the door up.

-Kayden, Mariah, Jasmine and Diana are here. My dad must have told them to stay over here because it was safer than being alone.

-Are you okay? Kayden asks me noticing the blood on me from the thing that tackled me down.

-Yes I'm fine, I say to him.

-It doesn't matter if you're fine, Cody says and pulls me to my room where he put Hannah.

-Help her! Cody says yelling at me.

-Don't yell at her, my dad says Hannah's going to be fine. She has a broken leg and wound that Ava can stitch up.

-Sorry, Cody says to me with coldness in his eyes.

-I give Hannah some painkillers and wrap her ankle where it's broken and stitch her arm. She's still burning up I don't know why so I grab her a cold cloth to put on her.

-A--va am I go--ing to b--e okay, she says to me before she falls asleep.

-I leave her alone and shut the door to my room so know one will bother her.

-Is she going to be alright? Elizabeth asks me.

-I think so, I say.

Ava Reid was just living her life as a 13 year old girl. Then the dead came back and caused The End of the World. Living through hell before the world died Ava finds out that maybe things aren't that much worse than they were before.

Seasons 5-11

I do not own any of TWD content this is just a fan fiction.

Before you read TW:This story will include topics of Sexual Assault/Sexual Abuse, Physical Abuse, Suicide, Violence, and adult language.

-I was born on August 28th 1997 in Boston to my father Thomas Reid and mother Jessica Reid. My mother died three weeks after I was born in a car accident. My father was devastated after it happened from what I learned from my grandma. He spent weeks out of work just taking care of me and didn't go outside except to get formula for me and food for him. My father worked in the Army and was high ranking. Major was his ranking I believe when I was born. It was a perfect time for me to be born because my father was home and not deployed. I spent the first three and a half years of my life with my grandmother when my dad was deployed. He came home for a month three times in those years.

-Then my father was stationed at a military base near home when I was four.

-During the time that he was home he married Miranda. Miranda had three kids Cody 9, Emily and Elizabeth 4. It was a good thing that I had a mother figure and someone to take care of me when my father was gone because my grandma a few weeks before the wedding had a stroke and wouldn't be able to look after me anymore. Miranda divorce the girl's father a week before she met my dad and got full custody of them and painted him to be some crazy man. Cody wasn't her ex's but he adopted him a year after the girls were born. Elizabeth and Emily are two months older than me.

-My father and Miranda were together before my dad met my mom. My mom is the reason they broke up. So that would be the reason for my childhood hell.

-I remember most of my childhood, the good and the bad but mostly the bad. After the events of 9/11 my dad was deployed yet again to Afghanistan. That's when stuff got really bad. I remember if I did anything wrong I was locked in the closet for hours on end. That's where I learned to read at the age of four all of Miranda's cooking books and old magazines were in there so instead of sitting there doing nothing I would read them. When Miranda wasn't watching me I put crayons and paper in there and started drawing words that I saw and learned my own name.

-Then in March 2002 me, Elizabeth, and Emily would go to a babysitter three times a week when Miranda was doing whatever she did on those days. She was a stay at home mom so I still don't understand why we needed a sitter. The sitter had a 6 year old son so she would sing the ABC's all the time and play learning games with us. I picked it all up pretty fast so by the time I went into Kindergarten in September 2002 they moved me up to first grade a month into it because I knew what they were teaching and how to behave around other students. Then by the end of December they moved me to 2nd grade because everything became easy for me again.

-My father came home for Christmas and I remember being so happy because during that time Miranda had to be nice to me. My dad was so proud of me he told me how I was so smart just like my mother and I could be a doctor just like her someday and I could do great things. That made Miranda very angry whenever my dad talked about my mom.

-January 2006 When I was eight years old Emily and Elizabeth started complaining about having to share a room together, so of course them being the little princesses they are Miranda kicked me out of my room for Emily to have it and put a bed in the attic for me.

------------------------------------TW:Sexual Abuse----------------------------------

-The times when my father wasn't home were the worst parts of my life not only from Miranda but from the whole family. Miranda would hit me if I didn't do what I was told. Emily and Elizabeth would tell me how ugly I was all the time and know one would ever love me. Then March 2006 my step brother Cody would come into the attic and got into my bed and started to touch me. I pretended to be asleep so maybe he would stop. He left a few minutes later and I rolled over and remember feeling so confused about what he just did. Cody would come into my room once a week for three months to touch me.

-June 2006

-I decided to stay up to catch Cody so maybe he won't do anything. This day also happens to be Cody's 15th birthday. I stay up looking at photo albums of my mother and father. I look just like my mother, almost a copy of her. The only feature I have from my father are the red highlights in my blonde hair making me a Strawberry blonde. My dad looked so happy with my mom I let a tear fall from my eye. Then I hear someone walking up the attic stairs. I stand up waiting to see Cody walk in.

-Oh you're awake, he says with a smirk.

-Yes I am so, I say. He starts walking over to me. I start backing up slowly.

-I know what you've been doing. I have been awake every night you come up here. I'm going to tell someone if you don't leave me alone, I say.

-Really Ava what could you even say to make anyone believe you he says. Do you really think anyone will believe you over me? He grabs my arm like he is going to break it.

-I could do so many things to you and there's nothing you could do to stop it, he says sinisterly as he touches me.

-You're hurting my arm, I say with tears in my eyes.

-I've been letting you off so easily and it will stay that way if you don't say anything to anyone or when your father comes home I will kill him. He lets go of my arm. Do we have an understanding?

-I shake my head to say yes.

-Good but there's still something I still need you to do for me, he says as he exposes himself.

-I stand there in shock for a moment because I don't know what he's going to do. He sits on my bed and grabs me to sit there as well with him. Then he grabs my hand making me touch him.

-This went on for a few weeks the only time I ever felt safe was when I was at dance or Gymnastics, or hanging out with my friend Kayden's house he lived across the street from us he was also in the same class as me so that made him two years older than me. He lived with his older sister Jasmine 14, and younger sister Mariah who was the same age as me 9, and his mother Diane. Kayden's father died when he was five years old. Mariah, Emily and Elizabeth were good friends with each other so every time they slept over I would go to just to hang out with Kayden. I had a little bit of a crush on Kayden. I don't think he ever knew it. He was one of the only kids in my school days that would be friends with me. He didn't care that I was younger than him in his class. He just saw me as an equal while everyone else saw the weird smart girl. I remember staying up at all hours of the night hanging out in his tree house after sneaking out of the attic to get away from Cody.

-August 2006

-My father will be home for my 9th birthday in a week and this time he's going to be stationed near home again for a while. I decided that my father will believe me about Cody so I am going to tell him.

-Three days before my father came home Miranda called for me to come to the living room to talk. I walked in to see her holding my diary that I wrote my plans to tell my father about Cody.

-You're a little fucking lying bitch you know that, she says.

-What I wrote down is true. I say to her. Your sons been hurting me.

-Look I don't care if he has or hasn't he is my son and you're nothing and no one would believe you anyways, she says.

-Yes they will, I say, trying to pull one over on her.

-She slaps me across the face and breaks my arm. I start crying because my arm hurts.

-Stop fucking crying you're a crybaby just like your mother as well as a lying little slut. You would like what Cody is doing in your imagination. You're ugly and deceitful just like her. Get up she says I have to take you to the doctors now for something you did to yourself. You disobeyed me and climbed that tree like I told you not to and fell down.

-Okay I say defeated. My dad will be home in just three short days. I will be fine, I say to myself hoping to convince myself.

-After Miranda brought me to the hospital and they put a cast on my arm when we got home Miranda had Emily put her stuff back into Elizabeth's room and me put my stuff back into my room so my father wouldn't find out I slept in the attic. I still had to sleep in the attic for those two nights before my father came home.

-I couldn't get to sleep because Miranda broke the arm on the side I usually sleep on. I shot up when I heard creaking on the attic floor boards and saw that it was Cody.

-What do you want, I say as he pulls my blanket off of me.

-He slaps me and says what did I tell you would happen if you told someone, he says.

-At that point I don't even care what he does anymore to me. I remember that what he did next hurt a lot and I was bleeding. He told me after he was done if I told anyone he would kill my father.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-September 2006

-My first day of 6th grade was a week after my 9th birthday.

-I really did like being in the same classes as Kayden but the stuff became too easy for me again so I was moved up to 7th grade with the permission of my dad and the school board.

-My dad was so happy my life was great for the whole school year. Cody wouldn't dare to do anything to me while my dad was around. The only thing that sucked was everyone that bullied me in school.

-We celebrated my fathers 43rd birthday in April 2007. During that time I was also accepted into a private school in Boston.

-My father got deployed again at the end of July 2007. I would be sent to a private school in September anyways so I would only have to be living in the house 5 weeks before I got to leave, so I wasn't as scared as I would usually be with my father out of the house.

-August 2007

-Cody went back to what he was doing before my father came home.

-One night I was talking about how cool the new school is going to be at dinner time and Miranda exploded at me.

-I know you think you're so special just like your mom. Your mom always used to brag just like you are right now Ava you're not special stop thinking that you are Miranda says.

-One week right before my birthday I started to feel really sick in the mornings. I looked up my symptoms in one of my mom's old medical books. And all the symptoms were pregnancy symptoms. I couldn't believe it I wouldn't believe it I started to freak out I can't be pregnant i'm only 9 almost 10. I stole some money from Miranda's purse and ended up walking to the local shop to buy a test.

-This for your mommy dear, the lady at the check out said.

-Yeah she's in the car I said sweetly she didn't feel good to come in, I said.

-Well honey, tell her congratulations if it's positive, she says.

-I will thank you have a great day, I say.

-I read the steps on the box on how to do the test and they're simple enough. I took the test and the anticipation of waiting killed me but what happened next killed me even more when I looked at the test it was positive.

-I started crying so loud in the bathroom that Miranda came in.

-What the fuck is your problem I'm trying to watch my show, then she sees the test on the counter and a million things cross her mind.

-Fuck, is all she says as she walks out and goes to Cody's room and slaps him.

-What the fuck, is all Cody says.

-Yeah what the fuck. Ava's fucking pregnant you dumb shit. What do you plan on doing? You could get arrested if she told anyone else because that's evidence. Good thing I barged in or I don't know where you would be next time you do something to her wear a fucking condom, she says.

-The fact that she's not mad at what he did but at the fact he could get in trouble is what she's mad at.

-Miranda pulls me to the kitchen and runs to her bathroom and comes back with a bottle of pills. On the side of the bottle says do not take it if Pregnant she handed me a few of them and I take them because I do not want a child.

-I go through a miscarriage alone in the bathroom.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-School Year 2007-2008

-My new school is amazing there's people like who are smart and no one makes fun of me the whole school year. All my teachers think it's amazing the stuff I know at only 10 years old. They offered a doctors program in the high school I will be going to next year where you learn the fundamentals of being a doctor its a four year elite program that only certain kids are picked for.

-Summer 2008

-My father was home the whole summer so he got to spend my 11th birthday with me and even got to drop me off at school before he had to be deployed again for six months.

-School year 2008-2009

-This year was my first year of high school the year was amazing again still though. My father was home for a while. He was home for my 12th birthday. He was set to deploy in June 2010.

-School year 2009-2010

-This year was more stressful just overall more complicated classes. Next year I'll be a junior and it's weird to think that I would be in 8th grade like Emily and Elizabeth if I didn't move up classes.

-My father was deployed before I finished the school year so he couldn't pick me up this time for school.

-Cody just finished his second year in college so he came home with his girlfriend so that meant he left me alone.
