"If you are watching this please begin to start packing now. You will need clothes, shoes, and if necessary small personal items. Also you will not be let in after 48 hours no exceptions. So head towards your local Police Department for Valt also known as underground base.
To let you know, say your goodbyes if you have any children or young age family. Children 5 to 17 are to be in an different Valt then ages 18 and up plus children 1-4. That's all the news from channel 5 act-".
The TV clicks off as my mom sets the TV remote on the coffee table. Then asked "Jayson can you call your family right now then tell them to come over in 1 hour and I will call my husband and ask of the same."
Jayson noted his head then turned to me while glaring at me with the I-told-you-so-look. My mom signal me to get started with my packing, while on the phone getting in touch with dad.
2 hours later.....
Two vehicles had pulled up in our drive way. One was an 4 door red minivan. The other vehicle was an two door black Dodge Ram. The man in the Dodge Ram was my father Dave Layfield.
He got out the truck and greeted us with hugs he asked my mom "honey you sounded worryied so I rushed getting as fast as I could. But did you see the news?" before she could answer. coming behind him was Jayson whole family his mom, Dad, older sister, and grandpa.
Their eyes meet our worryied glances, we invited them in. We told them events that had happen. Also told them about the separation and how long we got to get into the valts then after no exceptions.
They were in a lost of words. To me it looked like they were still stuck on kids being separated. I could not help but get angry about how we are forced to separate. I asked my self what was the point of it.
My dad said "Man.... Hmm...Well first things first, we need the the valt numbers, what matter more is our Children's safty and ours." Jason's father and grandpa agreed.
I said to everyone "There is still daylight outside why don't we get our valt stuff now then tomorrow and we'll have more time together after yall pack up then we'll meet here same time right?" everyone stood in silence for an minute.
Then Jayson said "true true that makes a little since then just sitting here like sitting duckes." breaking the silence, everyone agreed yea yeah.
we all rushed to our vehicles and left to the nearest Police Department. It took about 20 minutes but then we had made it to the Police Department seemed like others had the same idea.
There stood an line all the way out the door. It started to look like an restaurant. That place has never been full like that at all I mumbled.
It was almost an entire hour but we were next in line to get our valt number and location. They called Next in line please! I went up they told me
"please state your full name, birthdate, and age."
I said "Jake Layfield age 14 birthdate was 5~16~2002." they had stamped it and also said to me
"Goodluck Layfield". The others did the same soon we were done.
We all left said "see you tomorrow and Jason said at 5 right?" I assured him "yeah 5 o'clock."
we had quite a day planed tomorrow in fear it might be our last. We went inside took an bath, and on our way to the bedrooms.
All this devastating news was like an unpeacefull noise that kept me up most of the night. While later I was dead alseep from exhaustion.
