A/N: Hello, readers! So, if you've read my chapter story for TWD 'Something They Never Thought They'd Find' this is the oneshot collection I was thinking of. If you haven't read my chapter story, I've been thinking of this oneshot collection for awhile! Anyway, this first chapter is actually based off of a dream I had recently. What would life be like in like 10 years if they stayed at the prison? So here you go, I hope you like it. Love. ~Helen

Harsh Georgia winters were something they'd become accustomed to over the years. Bitter winds and low temperatures were all but a joke to them now. The knowledge of a shortened food supply lay dimly in the backs of their minds each day, and they all knew it could be days before they ate again. The summers were no surprise either, dehydration was common for them all. Heat exhaustion scared them indoors on most days, even walkers couldn't be bothered to be out in the heat.

They had so few members of the group now. Most died, some ventured out on their own. Only five remained from their original group camped at the quarry. Rick, Carl, Glenn, Daryl and Carol all had equally suffered in loss and grief. Beth and Maggie were the only remaining survivors from the Greene farm after losing Hershel not long ago. Most of the elderly from Woodbury had passed on, leaving only Jack, Evelyn, and Timothy. The younger people from Woodbury, the ones who were only children when Daryl, Rick and Michonne found them, had left. They thought they could make it outside the prison walls, alone. Most were lost in the first few weeks.

Tyreese, Sasha and Michonne had stayed; they lost Sasha at the same time they lost Hershel. The prison, which they called their home became somewhat of a rest stop for any remaining survivors, but there were so few of them anymore. The survivors were few and hard to come by, but when they wandered by the prison the group would offer them food, medical attention, and a warm bed to rest the night. The next morning they'd continue on their way, leaving only footsteps and memories in their wake.

As far as the normality of life, they all seemed quite satisfied. Treating each other like family and trying to survive in the world of walkers. Over time, Rick ended up with Karen. They seemed to make each other happy, and she was a good mother to Judith. Glenn and Maggie got married -Or whatever you could consider being married in an apocalypse. Together they had three children, Patricia, Maria, and Teddy. Patricia named after Otis's wife, Maria after Maggie's mother and Teddy came from Theodor, which was T-Dog's first name.

Tyreese and Michonne had became somewhat of an odd couple. They bonded over weapons and hand to hand combat rather than guns, considering neither of them could shoot. They weren't very affectionate, but they cared for each other deeply. As Carl grew older, he and Beth had become close. Though it was never outright announced, everyone knew they had staked a claim on the other.

Daryl and Carol too had become a couple. Much like Carl and Beth, they'd never announced they were together, but everyone knew. Especially after Carol had given birth to the two Dixon twins, Rose and Hunter. They all grew quite accustomed to the life at the prison. They grew crops in the field and supplied up for the cold winters. They had a small, make shift cemetery for their fallen friends, adding graves for each of their own. All the way from Amy and Jim to the most recent, Hershel and Sasha, wooden crosses were made and carved into. They even added Jenner, Milton, Merle, and Andrea. They were never at the prison, and at one point had been an opposing force, but the group wouldn't be where they were, or as strong as they'd come without them.

They carried on each day just like the last. There hadn't been a walker threat for months, the last being when Hershel and Sasha were lost. And before then, not for years. They lived their lives out, the original group soon passing away from old age in that prison, all with high hopes of their children seeing a better world.

A/N: So I wasn't sure what Maggie's mother's name actually was, so I went with Maria. And figured if nothing else it could be based on her mother's middle name. As for Hunter and Rose, I think they're cute Dixon names. I like them. Though I think they've been used before... Sorry for killing Hershel and Sasha! They just seemed like the odd two out. Also I apologize for the shortness of this, the others will -hopefully- approve in length.

I also must warn you, I am a hardcore Daryl/Carol (Caryl) shipper. Sorry if you aren't fans.

Any suggestions for future oneshots, or something you'd like to read, let me know! I'm always open to new ideas. And remember to review! Thanks! Love. ~Helen
