As soon as Jackson pulled me out the room, the other guy walked up and punched him, throwing him to the floor unconscious. The guy grabbed my wrist and pulled me inside the room again, locking the door. "I won't hurt you." He said. "You can call me zombie. That's what everyone calls me."

We lied in bed, but we have each other space. Today I slept under the same sky as yesterday, but under an evil roof, unlike yesturday. And then I drifted asleep.

I ran up to jackson, giving him a hug. Beside him, were his friends. I didn't like his friends (they look mean) but I ignored that, because Jackson is my best friend. I understand him.

The next day, I saw Jackson with his friends again, and that day, I knew I should've told his parents, only then I would understand the situation.

"Jackson, come on try some. All your worries will go away. You are going to feel like flying, it's really good, man." One of his friends said, which if you ask me, I'll never hang around him.

"How could I? My parents would never let me." Said Jackson, rejecting the drugs offered by his friend.

Jackson ended up consuming that drug. And since that day, he slowly changed, becoming the monster he is today.

I was waken up by the sound of sirens. No way. Is this the police? The sirens are getting closer and closer. I heard Jackson yelling for everyone to hide. But I just stood there. Waiting to be rescued.

"It's the police, open the door!" The police yelled through the other side of the door. I followed the voice until I found the door. And as soon as I was gonna open the door, somebody hit my back with a bat. I fell to the floor aching with pain. I felt as I couldn't move. I needed to open the door, then everything will be ok, and I will go home.

Klang!

I was hit by the bat again. The world was slowly disappearing. I was a thin and delicate person.

Smash!

The door opened by itself. The police had kicked the door opened. I saw four polices... And my mother. My mother who I loved so much. She was everything I had. I have no father, just her. And she is mentally disabled, but she knows how to love a daughter. Mom, I love you.

As soon as I was about to faint, the last thing I heard were a couple of gunshots.

Then everything goes black.
