A few minutes latter there's a loud banging on the door. Jake jumps up to get it but I tackle him to the ground before he unlocks the door.

"What are you doing it could be a freak" I say quietly

" Yeah there freaks alright but they will not hurt you " he says

" Now get off " he yells

I get up and he unlocks the door to his 'Gang' two twin brothers that are freshman at my school Samuel and Isaac tall skinny with light brown hair and green eyes. And the third guy in eleventh grade with me Axel he was ever taller and medium size with dark hair and blue eyes. The group of nerds.

They all run in with weapons galore throwing them on the table Axel walks in last calmer than the rest and looks at me.

" You let her tackle you Jake "

Jakes face gets red " She caught me by surprise "

" I bet " he says laughing

We all walk over the couches sit down. The sun has set it's so dark out side I want to go home but there is no way I'm letting Skylar go out side at night with that freak out there.

" Were are ya'lls parents? " I ask to the boys who look up at me.

" Work still " the twins say together

" My Moms at that dinner party thing with Jakes parents " he says looking at me right in the eyes.

"What about your dad? " I ask

" He left us when I was little " he says

" Oh..." I say feeling super bad

So there's no one to help great. We love to far away on the other side of the creek about a 2 miles walking but I bet I could see my house from here if I went outside.

" I need to go outside " I say as every one stops talking and looks at me

" Sis are you crazy? "

" No I need to see the house to see if Mom and Dad are there "

" I'll go with you " Axel asks standing up.

I get and walk over to the mound of supples the boys brought over food, water, clothes, and weapons like lots knifes, machetes, BB guns, real looking guns, golf clubs, baseball bats, and pitchforks.

I hold up the pitchfork "Are we rioting"

They laugh I take the pitch fork and walk to the door Axel grabs a golf club and practice swings " Four! " they laugh even harder.

" Do not open this door unless you hear the secret nock" I nock twice pause nock twice pause nock twice I do that on the door.

" Sounds like a heart beat " Axel says

" Yes it does " Sky say.

I give her a quick huge and I open the door and we walk out in too the cool out side it's drop a lot scence this warmer afternoon. I was shivering as we walked out on to Jakes dock to see my house.

" Are you ok you are shaking? " he asks whispering in to my ear.

" Yeah I'm just cold " I say chattering my teeth

He takes off his jacket wearing a long sleeve shirt underneath " Here " he says handing it to me.

" No you'll be cold to in fine " I say crossing my arms look for my house

" It's fine take it " he says putting it around me it was warm and smelled of body spray but the good kind and not to much.

" Thanks " I say putting it on all the way.

" He I'm sorry for what I said early about your Dad I didn't know " I say looking at him in the eyes

" Oh that it's fine he left way to long ago to even care about " I still felt bad

" There it is " I say pointing in that general direction

" I don't see it " he's looking all around

I put my hand under his chin and place his head right at it.

" Oh see it "

I pull my hand away.

" Wow your hands are cold " he says grabbing on to my right hand

" Oh yeah " I say pulling them away and shoving them in to the pockets of his jacket.

" I can't see any thing going on over here "

" Me neither "

'Snap'

I hear a branch snap and grab on to Axels arm.

" What was that " I whisper then pick up my pitch fork he grabs on to his golf club.

" Let's get back inside " he says taking one of hands and leading us to the back door. We all most make it to the stairs when I hear a 'Snap'.

I let go of his and grab right to my pitch fork. Then I see it running out of the bushes I pull back and swing and hit the freak straight in the chest and it falls to the ground not moving I walk up to it as Axel shines the light one it.

" That was scary " I say breathing heavy.

" That was hot " he say smiling at me.

I felt some thing grab my ankle and pull me to the ground.
