"How on earth are we supposed to stop the Rylo Man?" I asked.
  "The story says that theres only one way to stop the Rylo Man..." She broke off, biting her lip.
  "Which is?" I said, preparing for the worst.

  "Umm, so somehow you have to get up close to him and say 'Rylo tora domani disendo'."
  "That doesn't sound that difficult. I mean, how hard can saying a few words be?"
  "Well... He can teleport can't he?" Jayla said.
  "So? What does that have to do with - Ohh... Right." I said, catching on. The Rylo Man could just keep teleporting away when we say the words to him.

  "We need to think of a plan" I said.
  "Yeah" she agreed.
We couldn't think of anything so we just decided to sit on her bed and do some research on her laptop about the Rylo Man. We searched up stuff to see if there was another way to defeat him, or anything to help us come up with a plan, but we couldn't find much at all. All we found out was  that the Rylo Man was once a person, and he was brutally killed in the 1800's for a crime he didn't commit. We had a look on some Creepypasta websites but he wasn't on there.

  "Jayla, it's getting late. Should we finish the research in the morning?" I asked, looking at the clock wich read 2:50am.
  "Yea, let's go to bed. I'll sleep at the bottom of the bed and you can sleep at the top" she said, walking out of the room.
  "Where are you going?" I asked.
  "To get a spare pillow for you".
  "Okay, I'll come too" I said, not wanting to be left alone.

  We went downstairs to the laundry room and got a few pillows. While we were down there, we decided to get some crisps as we were both a little hungry. Jayla had Cheese & Onion crisps and I had Ready Salted. We ate some of them on the way upstairs and finished the rest in her room. We checked the clock and it read 3:00am.

  "Okay let's go to bed now" I said.
  "Ya, I'm exhausted" Jayla replied, yawning quietly. I got into Jayla's bed and slept on the side closest to the wall and Jayla slept at the bottom on the other side. I was really comfy but also a little scared.
  "Jayla?" I asked.
  "Yeah?" She replied.
  "What did you do with that map?"
  "Oh, I burned it because he can locate where the map is and come and get us"
  "Okay, I was just wondering. Goodnight!"
  "Goodnight Amber!"

  I stared at the ceiling for ages. I just couldn't get to sleep knowing that somewhere the Rylo Man was out there. I kept telling myself that I was safe here, that he couldn't hurt me here, but I wasn't so sure that staying at a friend's house was going to stop him from finding me. Pushing that thought out of my head, I tried calming my self by taking some deep breaths. After a while, however, I heard Jayla snoring. I giggled a bit because it was really loud and then I drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
