Last night didn't even seem real, I couldn't believe what happened my mom and dad refused to let me go home alone. But Fangs, Pea and Jug all promised to stay at my side to calm their worries. And that's exactly what they did. I slept on and off throughout the night, Sheriff Keller called my dad later that night and let him know all night walkers and Cheryl were behind bars.

It might sound cold but I thought killing Zombie would be eating away at me. But it wasn't yes I took a life, but I did it in order to save mine. Night walkers would have taken my life and would have viciously left my body to be found. When Keller searched the 4 that went into Pop's he found blades and guns on all of them.

My mom made me promise to call her as soon as I got up.

(Phone call)

Mom:

Good morning love. Did you sleep at all?

Me:

A little off and on

Mom:

Are you sure you're ok?

Me:

I know I should say no I'm not given what happened last night. But other than my ribs being a little sore I'm fine

Mom:

You know you did what you had to it was either him or you Jade. It's not heartless that you don't feel anything. That's just the facts.

Me:

I know mom. I did what I had to. That's what is getting me though things right now. I'm just glad I don't have to look over my shoulder knowing they're all being sent away is amazing news.

Mom:

That's the greatest news your dad and I are relieved that's for sure. Your sister is worried about you.

Me:

Tell her I'm fine I promise you all I'm fine. I got some stuff I need to do today. But I'll be over later on this evening.

Mom:

Ok my love. Be careful I love you.

Me:

I will mom I love you too

I got in the shower after I talked to my mom I was expecting Toni in an hour. I decided to just go comfy today so I put on some sweats and a hoodie. My whole body was sore. I mentally prepared myself for this conversation with Toni. How was she going to react to the news about Cheryl?

When I got the address from Jade my heart began beating fast. I thought she wouldn't have texted me. It was an address I've never heard of before. I decided to stop off and get Jade her favorite smoothie.

 I put the address Jade gave me into my GPS and began following the directions it gave me. It was in a little town called Zion about a 25 minute drive from Riverdale still in the Southside. The houses were beautiful all on an at least 5 to 7 acres of land.

The GPS sent me down a private road before it said I was at my destination. I couldn't see the house because of a large privacy wall that surrounded it. A huge gate was at the front and a security box on the side. I pressed the button and it rang a few times "who is it?" "Uh yeah it's Toni" I answered. The phone cut off and the gate began to open.

What I seen before me blew me away and made me instantly cry uncontrollable tears. I knew this house, not because I've been here before. But because it was a house I dreamed of, it was literally my dream home. My mind was all over the place I pulled into the circular driveway and parked my car. I tried to gather myself before getting out. What was going on?
