Before anyone starts, this is my own story that I also posted to AO3. I wanted to put it on here as well to spread the story around. I hope you enjoy the story. Thank you very much.

A feud that had followed many generations of the city of Atlanta is still very present today. The Grimes and the Greene family have a vicious feud that has been deeply rooted in the history of Atlanta in itself. Both families live on different sides of the law. The Greene family follows the law to the letter in many different ways, such as law enforcement and attorneys. Nearly every member of their family has a job that involves the law. The Grimes family is the exact opposite. Their family is known for their criminal activities, which involves murder, drugs, and prostitution.

Greene family have been after the Grimes for decades but never had anything that could actually stick. Greene family despises the Grimes for their ability to escape justice. It is known that the Grimes can never be trusted. They will turn and switch so quickly against anyone who doesn't have the same last name as them. Loyalty runs on in blood and money for that family. And both are needed to ensure the utmost loyalty. Greene family looks down on the Grimes for the injustice that they commit and the innocent (or not so innocent) lives taken too early, whether it is drugs or murder.

The Greenes are held up in high esteem throughout the community and are one of the wealthiest families in Atlanta, the Grimes being another. The head of the family in recent years is Hershel Greene, a respected lawyer with many honors and prestige. His wife Annette, who is a veterinarian for farm animals, has been married to Hershel for nearly 30 years. Their anniversary is coming up in a few months. The Greenes had a total of 5 children, 2 of them died at a young age. One of their children is biologically theirs, while the other two are adopted. All the 3 are girls, with Maggie being the oldest, Sasha as the middle and Michonne, the youngest of them all.

Maggie is the Greene's biological daughter. She's the oldest at 25 years old and now she's working with her mother at their family veterinary. Since the family has a farm they visit every summer, Maggie was always been interested in animals and was eager to learn when her mother was around. Now at 25, Maggie is doing what she loves with the support of the man she loves, Glenn Rhee. Although they aren't married, the Greene family is still hopeful of a wedding and children in the near future for them.

Sasha, the middle child at 23, already knew what she wanted to be in life since she was a small child. After hearing the stories her grandfather told about the Grimes family, Sasha knew then and there she wanted to be the one to catch them all, to bring down an entire family in one fell swoop. Rather than being learning about animals with her elder sister, Sasha stayed in the house and listened to her grandfather stories and tried to learn more about the Grimes family. Sasha is now at the Atlanta PD working the organized crime department, she's now the youngest officer in that division and second to the lead detective on the Grimes family case.

Michonne, the youngest member of the family at just 20 years old, is a free-spirited child. She can be serious when the situation calls for it, but she'd rather live life freely. As a child and now, she doesn't know what she wants to do with her life. She currently attending Terminus University and her major is in Pre-Law. Although, this isn't necessarily the track she wanted to take, forced by her father and grandfather, she is now on track to be a lawyer. This is so she can become the new head of Greene and Associates and continue the family name. As a child, she was very interested in art and creating it, no matter if it was in music or in painting. She was very talented and the only people who truly knew were her sister and her mother. Maggie and her mom were the most supportive then and even now. They are the only ones who know about Michonne's passion to be an artist. Sasha is no longer interested in Michonne's life anymore and if she ever did find out, Sasha would immediately rat out Michonne to the patriarch of the family. So for now Michonne is doing what her family wants until she is able to make a decision for herself when the time comes.

The Grimes family is just filled with men sans the matriarch of the family Mrs. Deanna Grimes. Deanna was born a Grimes and married Reg Monroe, but rather than taking her husband's name like many women do after they marry, the family took her last name. Deanna has 4 children, Aiden, Spencer, Shane, and Rick. Aiden and Spencer are her eldest children and a set of twins. At 30 years old, Spencer and Aiden have a couple of businesses throughout Atlanta that offer X rated pleasure for voyeurism or participation. They have it all. Both still single, but it does not stop the various callers into their beds. Spencer and Aiden were supposed to take over the family business since they are the eldest of the 4 Grimes children. But due to their inability to get serious when the time called for it, the line of succession shifted.

Shane is the middle child of the Grimes family. At 25, he is very much a playboy, rather than his elder brothers who also indulge in the life of sleeping with many people, Shane never sleeps with the same person. A new lover always takes his bed every night. He is known as a heartbreaker of every gender, although he is exclusive with only one. Shane dabbles in what his older brothers' businesses, but he is known more for his every high-end drugs. If you wanted to be higher than a kite from just one measly sample, Shane is the guy to go to. But his drugs are also really expensive, the only people who really indulge in his concoctions is the elite and housewives in the suburbs, whom he wouldn't mind having sex with rather than getting physical payment. He also isn't the next head of the Grimes family after Deanna steps down due to his inability to settle down for a moment or two. Unfit to be a leader for the family.

The soon-to-be leader and new head of the Grimes family, is the youngest of them all, Rick Grimes. At 21, Rick hasn't done much with his life except shadow his brothers in their different ventures. But in order to make their money legit, Rick helped their mother in the business of dealing arms, legally and illegally, to different countries of war. They also partake in heavy set security for the elite. While Rick's father is an architect and has big contracts with not only the U.S Government but the government of other countries as well, it doesn't necessarily explain the amount of money they have. So The Armory was created in order to legitimize their money. Rick was the only child who had their head on straight. He was the one who would be able to lead the Grimes family into glory and continue their fight with the Greene family. Although he is the youngest of the children, his brothers would be ready to do whatever Rick needed to be done in a flash. Even though this seems like the life for Rick, everything is going his way, he wasn't too sure if this was the life he wanted to live. Rick had been interested in law enforcement. Even wanted to become a sheriff until his mother gave him a reality check that their family is on the other side of the law, and he would have to arrest them all. That quickly nipped that thought in the bud, but Rick always wanted to be something more, rather than being the head of the crime family.

Thanks again for reading. Lmk what you guys think.
