*Kayla's POV*

John stood up from the bed. "Please tell me your joking" John said. Destinee, Mhali and I nodded no. "Nope, we're not joking" Destinee said. John ran his fingers through his hair. "Did you call the police?" John asked. "We did but they said there is nothing they can do" Mhali said. John sighed and nodded his head.

"You girls are unsafe" John said. "None of us are John, whoever this person is, knows everything about us, it is scary but the police said that there is nothing we can do about it" I said. John nodded and looked very annoyed. "How can the police just say they can't do anything about it?!" John said with a tone of anger in his voice. We just sat there looking at him. "It's their job to protect the citizens in this city! But what are they doing? Nothing!" John yelled. "John! Your a soldier, you protect this country! Don't get mad!" I begged. John took a deep breath.

"You know what we're going to do?" John asked. We looked confused at him. "We're going to get to the bottom of this, we are going to find out who this person is that has been sending these messages, until we find out, I'm going to protect you, my sisters, my step sisters, family and friends, I don't care if that means putting my own life at risk" John said. I nodded no.

"No John" I said. John face fell. "What?" John asked. "No John, you'll be killed, our family needs you here, I'm risking my life for everyone, this is my responsibility to keep everyone safe" I said. John grabbed my arms. "Kayla, do you hear yourself? I'm not letting anyone hurt you, your my little sister, I can't lose a sister" John said shaking me as he was explaining to me what he was saying. Destinee and Mhali just sat there and watch.

"Do you realise that your risking your life? There is a stalker that is dangerous and whoever it is that is stalking you, they are going to kill you. Do you know how many people are going to get upset if you were killed? Think about Mom, think about Ian, think about Dad, think about Katherine, Frankie and me, think about Lauren, Megan and Clara, think about your friends, everyone that cares about you!" John said gripping his fingers into my arm, which pinched. I felt my throat burn and my eyes began to water up.

"Think about it Kayla, would you take a bullet for the Ghost Adventures Crew if they were stuck in the middle of this?" John asked. I was fighting to hold my tears back. I bite my lip. I felt the burn in my throat worsen. "I don't want them to get into the middle of this" I said. "But would take a bullet for them if they were in the middle of this?" John asked. "John, this isn't helping" Mhali said. "We can work..." Destinee said until John interrupted her. "Answer the question" John said.

If Zak, Nick, Aaron, Billy and Jay were in the middle of this, I would take a bullet for them, but I know they will escape. Everyone I love and care about will escape, but I won't. "Answer the question Kayla" John asked. I sniffled and nodded yes. "I would" I said. John's grip loosened but he was still holding my arms. "And that goes for everyone I love, I would take a bullet for everyone I care about" I said.

John let go of my arms. Destinee and Mhali looked from me to John. "I know you would, I know you would bullet for everyone you love" John said. He started walking towards the door. I kept looking at my older brother with fear while he was walking towards the door. John turned back and looked at me. "The only problem of taking a bullet for someone, there might be a chance of you not waking up again" John said. That frightened me. I felt my heart drop. John opened the door and walked out.

The door shut behind him. I couldn't hold in my tears. I fell on to my knees and bursted out crying. Destinee and Mhali got off the bed and came over to me. They knelt down and comfort me. "It's alright Kayla" Destinee whispered while patting my back. "I would take a bullet, I would!" I cried. They both pulled me in for a hug. I'll say this a million times, I would take a bullet for everyone I love, even for Zak, Nick, Aaron, Billy and Jay. However, they don't know that I exists, they don't know us. Am I coward for wanting to take a bullet for people that I love?
