Annabelle, or Anna, didn't think that the dead would start to rise up and eat them. She had only heard about it in movies. So when that actually DOES happen, she takes her children and is on the run to protect their lives. A year later, she never thought she would run into her past in this world. But she does. Set in time between season 3 and 4 and into season four.

Annie has been alone all her life, having been abandoned by her birth mother when she was hours old on the steps of an orphanage. And she's done well with. Twenty seven years later, still alone, she is surviving the apocalypse easily, but when she is saved by a mysterious crossbow wielding stranger, she somehow figures out that being with someone isn't that bad after all.
