Timeline of Events
Key Plot Points
Since we are an AU Walking Dead site with an ever advancing plot, I decided to create a timeline of events to better help explain the story thus far. I have organized it from oldest to the most recent update in plot. Everything on this site is the same as what happened in the TV show except for these key points in the plot.

- Merle is still alive. When the governor shot him, he had missed his heart by a few inches. When Daryl finds him later he is severely wounded, but Daryl was managed to take him back to Hershel in time to extract the bullet and bandage up the wound. The group was angered by how he kidnapped Michonne, and was only redeemed because of the good deed he ended up accomplishing by luring walkers in to kill the governor's men, and being Daryl's brother was the other only reason he was kept around afterward. These wounds leave him severely injured for a while, however.
- When the group ends up being exiled from the prison, because fate has a twisted sense of humor sometimes, Merle found himself paired up with Glenn, despite the deep hatred Glenn has for him. They still eventually later group up with Tara, and Abraham's group.
- Beth never dies. She still ends up being kidnapped and brought to the hospital, but during the hostage exchange Rick was able to negotiate with Dawn and defuse the situation to let him take both Beth and Noah.
- Tyreese was never bit, thus he never died.
- The group continues their journey to D.C. Though they never encounter Aaron, and because of that they have no knowledge of the existence of Alexandria. Because of this major turn in plot events, Noah does not end up dying and remains alive.
- After their cars run out of gas and they have to continue to travel on foot, they still end up taking refuge in the barn as they did in the show. They stay for that one night, and continue the journey on foot, weakened and hungered. After 2 days of doing this they encounter the small town that brings them to present time in the plot.
- The town is completely void and abandoned of human life and they decide to scope it out for shelter. The group finds a large Victorian style home, with 3 stories and enough room to house all of them. After going through the inside and making sure everything was safe and clear, they decide to spend the night and search for food, water, and other resources in the morning - after which they will be faced with the decision of staying there and ridding it of walkers, putting up their own walls and making their own city, or to continue their trek onward.
- Currently, Rick's group has decided to settle in the town and are in the process of securing it by putting up walls and finding more adequate shelter.
