Joey's POV...
~~~

I heard a scream.

"What the -."
"It's Ashli", I said. I turned around and ran inside. I seen Ashli, on her knees, crying, paper littering the floor around her.

"Ashli! What's wrong", I asked, kneeling next to her. Zach followed me, kneeling down to grab the paper.

"The photos...and the...letter...he.....he sent it", Ashli said between sobs.
"Who? Who sent the letter", I asked.
"It's Daniel", Zach replied. He placed the letter on the table and ran outside. I could hear him outside. He was talking to someone. Iggy, Sara, Mike - Ashli's dad -, and Zach walked in.

"Iggy, you take Sara and go upstairs", Zach said. Iggy nodded and picked Sara up. They went upstairs.

"Nicki, what's wrong", Mike asked.
"Daddy, we've got to go", Ashli said.
"What do you mean?"
"Daniel, he sent a letter with my pictures in it. Daddy, we really need to go."
"Nicki, I promise that Daniel isn't going to get you", Zach said. I placed my hand on her back.

"It's okay, Ashli. He's not going to hurt you", I said. Zach walked outside.
"No! Zach needs to come back", Ashli said, looking up at me. Her eyes were red from crying.

"Ash, it's okay. I promise he's not going to hurt you. I'll protect you."
"But what about Zach?"
"Zach is going to be okay", I said. Ashli stood up and grabbed the photos.

"Look." I took the images and peered at them. All of the images were of Ashli, yet they appeared to be taken outside, never inside.

"Joey, we have to go. Me, you, Daddy, Zach, Adam, Iggy, and Sara. We all need to leave", Ashli said.
"I agree", I said. I stood up and walked outside.

"Zach, we need to go", I said.
"Where?"
"Any where but here." Zach turned around and followed me inside.

"Okay. Joey, you and Nicki need to go back home. I'll get Iggy, Sara, and Dad and we'll go to my house. Where's Adam?"
"He left earlier", I replied. Zach pulled his phone out of his pocket and called Adam.

"Where are you?... Come home now... It's an emergency... I'll tell you when you get here... Bye", Zach said into the phone.
"Where is Adam?"
"He's coming home." Ashli looked at Zach.

"Where will he go? If he goes to his house, he'll be there by himself", Ashli said.
"Do you want him to go with you", Zach asked.
"Yes!"
"Joey, do you?"
"Sure", I replied. Adam showed up in no time. He walked inside.

"What's wrong? Is everything okay", Adam asked.
"No", Zach replied.
"What happened?"
"Daniel sent Ashli a letter just like ours and we have to go. You're going with Joey and Nicki", Zach said.
"Okay", Adam said. He walked over and pulled Ashli into a hug. Ashli wrapped her arms around Adam.

"It's okay, Nicki. It's okay", Adam said, stroking her hair.
"Now that Adam is back, you guys need to go now", Zach said.
"Okay. We'll go. Bye, Zach", I said. Ashli put her arms around Zach.

"Bye. I love you. Bye Daddy, I love you", Ashli called out.
"I love you, Nicki!" Zach gave Ashli a hug.

"Bye, Nicole. I love you, too", Zach said.
"Stay safe", Ashli said.
"You too." Ashli pulled out of the hug and turned to me. Adam said his goodbyes, and then we left and went home.

Ashli's POV
At Her & Joey's Home...

"Adam, you can stay in that guest room", I said, showing him the room. He walked in and put his clothes down.

"Thank you, Nicki, so much."
"It's no problem. I'm going upstairs with Joey. I'll be upstairs if you need me", I said.
"Okay. Good night, Nicki."
"Good night, Adam." I walked up the stairs and into mine and Joey's room. Joey was in the shower. I changed into my pajamas and crawled into bed and quickly fell asleep.
