After dinner was served I invited all of the female staff members down to the horsebarn lake. The sun was setting slowly and it relaxed everyone's moods.
"Wow" said Abby, letting out a breath of air. Danie kicked the water with her foot and splashed Alexis who was reading. "Hey!" She yelped and began blowing on her book to dry the pages. Abby then whispered a command I hadn't heard before and instantly a patch of the lake turned into ice. She jumped on it and did a jump and a spin. Danie watched in awe at her performance. I then leaped onto the ice, unfortunately I wasn't as talented and slipped on my butt. "Haha!" Abby and Danie laughed. I got up carefully and steadied myself. Abby looped around pulled my hand then pulled me forward. "Here," she said letting go of my hand, "this is a layback." She spun around and Danie and I clapped. Danie skated over to where Abby and I were.
"That's really cool Abby!" She said. Abby took and over-exaggerated bow and we all laughed.

I pulled off my icy clothes. We had skated all night and it was about midnight last I had checked. I quietly threw on a loose fitting shirt that hung down to my knees and climbed into bed. I wrapped myself in my red fleece and began remembering the day. Herobrine's evil grin flashed before my eyes, images of Matt screaming as his leg broke in two. The beam of light hitting my face and hurting me.

I jolted up in my bed. The sun was creeping through my windows. I rubbed my eyes and looked around. I had a throbbing headache and my vision was blurry. I carefully got out of bed and pressed my hands against the window. I could see the Coco Hotel in the background, still in a crumbled mess. My eyes scanned around the Spawn and I perceived everything in greater detail. I pushed myself away from the glass. I walked over to my dresser and through on a sweater. It was pink and had a Minecraft pig on it. I then put on a pair of leggings. My hair was still in a braid from yesterday so I didn't bother to brush it. 

As I walked down the stairs I winced in pain. My hip was hurting from when I had fallen yesterday while skating. I went immediately to the my garden and sat down in the grass. I stared up at the Golden tree, it's metalic glow shining down on me. Coco and my pet sheep walked over to me and I began to pet it's wool. The sound of the fountain brought tranquility into my mind and I sat down. My eyes slowly started to close and I allowed sleep to come. My dreams were pleasant. Thoughts of clouds, gold and cotton candy drifted through them. 

I was awoken suddenly by the sound of screaming coming from the kitchen. My eyes flashed open and I saw the sheep had fallen asleep next to me. Light poured on my face. I got up quickly and bolted directly to the sound. My bare feet plodded along the carpet. When I arrived at the scene a wave of shock spread through my veins with such intensity I nearly threw up. I couldn't believe my eyes.
