Summary
Many things have changed in the past twenty-five years for Joel, one being the fact that infected now roam the earth. What he didn't think was going to change was his inevitability of him dying someday, some would even say that he seeks out his own death. Nonetheless Joel doesn't understand why or how he is still alive, doesn't know why he has been dreaming of six other strange assortment of people, some traveling together and the other two off on their own. He doesn't know how he is alive after taking that beating from Abby, he doesn't understand what has happened to him but he does know that he will get his revenge.

An AU where Joel doesn't die (or he does but comes back because the old guard) and ends up finding a new family while searching for his revenge along side Ellie.
TLOU fans you don't have to really know what the old guard is to understand this, I try to explain most stuff either within the fic or in my authors notes. I do recommend watching the movie though because it's amazing and so well done.TITLE CHANGED FROM THE LAST OF THE OLD GUARD TO PROMISES AT SUNDOWN

Summary
The past month didn’t feel real to Nile. Everything happened so fast, her dying with her throat cut open and her blood going everywhere. Then her coming back to life, Andy basically kidnapping her, learning what she is with the lack of a why. Then everything with Merrick and subsequently Booker’s exile.
Nile truly didn’t feel as betrayed by Booker as the other three did. She didn’t know him for very long, and she understood where the man was coming from. He felt lonely and depressed, the Frenchman most likely has severe depression and along with the fact that he couldn’t die, that he was alone and having to deal with Nicky and Joe at the same time.

This is a companion piece to my longer fic 'The Last of the Old Guard', you don't have to read that to understand this one nor do you even have to know what The Last of Us is. There are elements of tlou, but only at the very end.Series
