John was sitting on his arm chair were him and his daughter would sit and watch TV eating his supper. Then he had a vision of his daughter and him playing with the frisbee and then the bullet going into Lily. Ever since his daughter died he's been seeing visions of him and his daughter. He listened to the sound of the bullet piercing her skin and her scream. Because of this John has been seeing a therapist to help to stop seeing the horrid visions,but it's not helping. Anyway, after his supper he put his plate in the sink and washed it, then he went to sleep.

When he woke up in the morning, he got dressed had some breakfast and went for a jog. As he was jogging he found a lost Bernese Mountain Dog running by him. John stopped and took a look at the dog's collar, there was a note it said "This dog's name is Charlie and he is a very nice dog. Please take care of him because I can't take care of him because I'm too poor so please take him with you.. Thank you."

So John took the dog into his care and walked it home with him. So that dog now became John's best friend, the only one who could understand him when he was mad,sad or happy. One day John took Charlie out on a walk and then as he walking past a lamp post he saw a sign and it said that his brother had finished his sentence in jail. John started running home. Charlie followed but had a worried face on. When John got home he got Charlie some food then sat at table,Charlie wouldn't eat he was to worried about John he had never acted so scared before. John told Charlie to eat so he did and while he was eating John started to pack bags to leave his home as he went to open the door Charlie barked which gave John a warning not to open the door. John stepped closer and looked out the door window and there was standing his brother with scars which had shown he had been put in his place in prison. John didn't know what to do but there was one thing he knew he wasn't going to let Jacob hurt the one thing he has left Charlie.

John stepped away from the door quietly and grabbed his bags and went out of the back door and started running with Charlie by his side. They stopped running when they got to the police station and went inside and ran to the officer that had put his brother away and started saying everything he remembered. Then finally Charlie barked and it shut John up as he saw his brother had followed him to the station and walked in, John tried to run but the officer caught him. Jacob started to move closer to John and gave him a hug and asked him why he ran away from him. Then as John gave him a look he knew why John ran. After a few seconds John realized he was hugging the killer of his daughter and pushed away. As John backed Charlie stepped forward and growled showing Jacob that he wouldn't let him touch John, Jacob tried reaching for his brother's shoulder but Charlie stopped it from happening by biting Jacobs hand with fury, probably drawing blood.

Then Jacob stepped back and told John to call off his dog, but John didn't say a word surprised that Charlie would do something like that for him, to protect him he felt safe for a moment then fear filled him up again. John told Jacob to get lost that he never wanted to see him again that he just wanted Jacob to leave him alone. Just then and there Jacob said he would get John he would hurt him again and kill his dog and make him watch just like he did to John's daughter. As he walked out the door the same grin came on his face the he had made under the skee mask when he killed Lily, when he started walking out again he said that he would rise to the top. Then grabbed a gun out of his pocket and shot a bullet in the air warning John he was coming for him then hopped into his car and drove away.

John stood their with his whole body paralyzed from the fear that was in him. Once he could move again he looked at Charlie,his mouth with Jacob's blood all around his mouth John knew he could count on Charlie to protect him. But then he thought to himself if Charlie was the one thing standing between them, so would Jacob would go after Charlie if so he wouldn't have to be as careful. John had to make a decision put Charlie in danger, or try to protect him by letting the police take him for a while, but John chose the third option John would never leave Charlie so he was going to stay at the police center where him and Charlie would be safe, Or would they?

Once Jacob was gone John looked at Charlie then at the police, John told the police that he would like to stay there and the police said that they could. When John started heading to the spare room at the station he sat in the bed and wondered if his brother would try again, and if he did what would he do. There was so much to think about in the world but the only thing John could think about was getting revenge on his brother, so he hatched a plan to make his brother regret everything he has done to hurt John and his family.

When John was sleeping Jacob opened the window and shot Charlie and went after John. The gunshot woke him up, leaving him to fend for his and Charlie's life. John had managed to wrestle Jacob down, but when john looked over to Charlie, but he was gone. All that was left of charlie was his chew toy and blood. That was the breaking point for john he took Jacob to somewhere no one would find them, no one but one person, his daughter.
