After they gather their things we made our way downstairs and out the window. I told them where the school was located at and that we will stay the night. "By the way if you hear yelling, it's fine, it's just me getting yelled at by a lot of people" I said. They didn't ask the question so i told them."I kind of have a breakdown and ran away but I am all good now, I save a little kid tonight and I also meet you guys and other people." I just hope Sally didn't get ahold of me or I'll really will dead. As we got closer to the school, I was explaining what it was like to live and to fight tickers and growlers. I told them how to survive when you can't do anything else but to live for today and leave yesterday in the past. We made it to the school and Luke let us in. He was wearing a white bandana around his neck. I wonder why he was doing that then I remember that I said for everyone to wear one if you didn't have a tattoo on your neck. I told the girls what it meant and they just nodded there heads.We made our way inside the school and I show them a room they can stay in and where the food was. After making sure they were alright I went to test my fate against Sally and Jimmy, but before I could enter the office I was tackle by Tabi. Not only was i hugged but i was also hit by her. She was yelling at me for leaving they way I did and not talking to them, then she start to cry again and I hug her telling her I was sorry and that it won't happen again. I let her go and I went into the office. I face a very calm and very scary Sally and her wife Claire. Claire came up to me and said "I'm glad your back but you made just dead because of my wife" I just nodded at her because I couldn't use my words in fear of her wife. "Jackie" Sally said in a calm voice. "Yes Sally" I said. She didn't say anything but then I felt a sharp pain in my gut. She hit me with her fist and I know I deserve it. Next came Jimmy and his brother, Jimmy was yelling at me and very piss while Zac seem to understand why I left and Erin was just as he always was, quite. He did give me a look that said if I ever left again like that he will end me.

After leaving the office I was tackle to the ground by my best friend Jade. She was crying and wiggling her tail hard. It has almost been a month since I left and I miss her deeply. She wouldn't get off of me but I knew if I was her I would do the samething. She licked my face and tried to get closer to me. I just hug her back tightly. A few minutes later I got up and she follow me to the room where Tabi was waiting on the cot we'd share before I left. Tabi cuddle into my side and Jade lay beside the cot on her bed. It was getting late and I needed to sleep. I mean I still have problems sleeping but I can get a few hours of sleep. Sometimes I still see his dark blue eyes and him falling to the ground and sometimes I don't. Soon I welcome sleep and dreamt of nothing.

I woke up around six and left the cot and Jade. I wanted to use the bathroom and wash up then find some food and maybe make breakfast for everyone. I enter the lunchroom and Jade and Tabi came running in. i stop what i was doing and she just looked at me as if she was going to cry again. I didn't make a move but she did. She was mad at for leaving without waking her up and I try to tell her I wasn't going anyway and that I was just going to make some food for everyone. She didn't believe me and it seems that Jade didn't as well so they both stay with me. Tabi helped me make food and Jade was sitting there watching us making sure I wouldn't leave without her. Everyone was not awake on coming back from their night shift and I just gave out the food. When Stacy and Tori walked in I handed them food and told them where we were going. I explain to the boys what and where I was going and I told them I would help them set up BMCC and I'll check in all the time. I promise them I wouldn't leave again and I won't unless I died.

After packing up for today I told Tabi that i would be back and that I would check in more. She didn't believe me so I gave her a walkie talkie and set it to the right channel to reach me. I told her I will call her once I am at BMCC and helping a new leader out. Jade came running towards me crying and pulling on my pants for me not to go. I give her a hug and told her I would be back for her no matter what and that she is my best friend. I just didn't want to put her in harm's way. Tori and Stacy got there things and follow me outside of the building to the wall. I saw Benny and the other kids playing in the front. It amazing to see them play even if our world has turn upside down. I also saw Hallie, Sara and Raven training with Claire and Abby making her way up to the watch tower. We didn't have many weapons here so only people who were on the towers can use them. I called out to claire and told her about the weapons situation and told her to work on it. She nodded and radio the boys to tell them.

We left the school and started out walk to where Lucy's block was. It was downtown and I decide to walk along the water to show the girls the wall that was built on the Jersey side. A few minutes later Victor and Jimmy were with us. "What are you guy doing here" I ask. "We are here to help you and the girls and to meet this new person helping people, after all I am you second" she said with a smile on his face. I could tell he was also here to keep an eye on me if I don't come back. Two hours later we made it to where Lucy was and I told her guards that I would be seeing her and bring my friends with me. Lucy meet us outside and told us that some people are already moving to BMCC. I smile at that and I told her my second in charge was with me and he would help her. They introduce himself and left in order to help people move. They look to be sending groups of five to six people at a time and soon this place would be clear. They were about twenty people here so they would be done in no time. After they left I took the girls and Victor to see Allen. Just down the street and in the back of the small store i open the door and they was Allen was a book in his hands. "Hey dude i brought some people who want to study you if you don't mind" I said." it's not people for these beautiful ladies" he said smiling like a goof. After a few minutes of asking him questions and how he got bitten they took some more samples and we left him to read. I told Victor to get these girls back to the science building and I was going to stay and help people move to BMCC. He nodded and I radio Jimmy and the other brothers about what I was going to do.

I radio Tabi and told her i was going to be late but home. She spoke back and told me not to be too late and to bring her a book to read. I just laugh and told her maybe and got to work helping people pack. I walked to the first person i saw and told them I was here to help, they thanked me and I help them pack what the own and some more. It was like that for an hour or so before it went to hell.

I looked up and saw Allen running around like her was mad. I ran towards him and told everyone to stay away from him. "Allen what the fuck are you doing" I yelled at him. He look at me and fell to his knees. I ran to him and ask him what was wrong but he still wasn't answering me. Then he just throw up, it didn't look good. It look to be like that stuff that oozes from growlers and tickers.oh no, he was turing! But how, he did not show any of the signs of turing for a month. While he was throwing up i was yelling at people to leave and calling lucy and everyone one the walkie and telling them what was going one. Then Allen just stop throwing up, he stood up and something was off. I looked at him and he looked back without really seeing me. "Allen whats wrong, your freaking everyone out" I ask him. He didn't say anything then all of a sudden his eyes began to bleed and he body began to change. I step back and look at what was happening before me. Allen the flirty guy i knew for only a day was gone and something else was taking his place. I back up some more and his body began to shake and bend out of place. His skin started to fall off in place and stretch in places. His body began to grew bigger and his muscle were misshapen and fell out where the missing skin use to be. I stood there in bewilderment. I never saw anything like this, this is something new altogether. I stumble back when i saw his arms change in length and size and his legs as well going through the change. His clothes ripped and some bones were protruding out of his once beautiful skin. "Holy shit this isn't happening"I told myself.

They're still some people struggling to leave so I ran to them got there shit in a bag and sent them running towards BMCC. I radio everyone and told them not to come this way and that I will handle this. I don't know what I was thinking but I turn off my walkie so I wouldn't hear people yelling at me to run. However the lost voice I heard was Tabis begging me to run, but I couldn't, this thing this freak that use to be Allen could destroy a lot of things and hurt a lot of people. There were two people left. It look like a father and his daughter. It was hard trying to focus on them and Allen. I knew i should take away his name but I can't. I know him and I now have to kill him. He isn't a person anymore he is this think, this freak but a part of me will always see him as Allen. They made their way towards me and i tell them to go but not to make any noise because I wasn't sure what this freak would do. Then he moved. And I yelled at them to run! "Fucking run and don't look back!" I yelled and they did it. I yell out his name but no response, so took out my Beretta M9 line up my shot and fire at his head. But nothing happen. He didn't fall, he is still moving but this time moving towards me. I got him off of those people so they can run to safety but now he is after me. Fuck this shit I said to myself. I needed to put him down.

I didn't know what to do. I never face something like this. I barely face the end of my world just two month ago and now I have to face this. I can do this, I can put down someone who could of been a friend. I need to be quick and light on my feet. I didn't bother taking out my bat it wasn't going to help me if taking down this tank of a thing. As it ran it swing its arms out and I got hit and threw me back. That fucking hurt but I got back up and started running around it. Taking short stops to fire my M9 at its head. My side was hurting but I ignore the pain. I needed to take this freak down. It came at me again swinging its arms and miss the first time but connected on the second time and send me flying and hitting the ground hard. I was in pain but I couldn't let that take over me. I landing next to a machete that was left by someone. I grab it and got up and starting running again and firing my M9. I was hitting its body and head but it still wasn't slowing down. Damnit, what is this thing made of. It started swinging its arms again and this time I use the blade to defend myself with, I was still hit but it was also bleeding that black stuff now. It howl in pain and I saw growlers make there way here. Fuck, I didn't think it could make a loud cry like that. This was getting worst by the second.

I was in pain but I couldn't let that stop me. I needed to take down this freak and run like hell away from here. I couldn't take on all these growlers and a freak at once. It came at me again and this time I cut the other arm but and held onto it. Once again it howl out in pain but I didn't let that stop me. I took the blade back and brought it down hard on his arm till i saw that bone. I was thrown off of it and a growler came at me. I make fast and shot it in the head. It fell lamp on the ground and I focus on the bigger fish then the small fry. I was bleeding, I was cut above my eye but that didn't stop me. I held my M9 and point it at this things head. I fire non stop while moving. Some shot landed in his chest and arms and some the head. It was started to slow down but my body wasn't keeping up with the way i was moving. It came at me again and hit my on my left side into a car. I didn't yell out in pain but I did take my blade and aim for the head area. I cut it neck and it grab me and fling me to the other side of the street. I was in so much pain but I needed to take it down.this is my one track mind right now. I needed to take it down and live. I got back up and looked into its eyes. I didn't see alen anymore, I just saw that freak that came out of him. A growler came too close to me and I shot it point blink range. I was still looking at it, it was like I was having a stare down with it.

I made the first move by aiming at it and firing. He came running towards me and I run from it. Trying to keep my distance from it. I wasn't fast enough and I was hit by its arm again and thrown into a car again. It was close for me to shot at so I loaded a chip into it and stabbed at it. But before I could hit it head it throw it head down towards me and my first reaction is to block. That was my mistake. It took a bite out of my right forearm and in my left hand was the machete that i plunge into its skull. It finally stopped moving, but I wasn't done just yet. I was going to kill all the growlers that freak attracted and tell Lucy and the boys it was done.

I didn't feel anything. I didn't want to feel. I knew my time was up but this was something I could do. I could kill these damn things and make this areas safe again. That is what I did. I kill them all. I let out my rage that I had held in for so long. I held in the pain I felt when this all first started. I just let it all out. When I was done I was cover in that blackish red substance. I didn't care, they something happen. The sky grew dark and it began to rain. I laugh at that, it was like the world knew how I felt. I left that area, I didn't want to be there if anyone decide to come and check on me. I left and the rain came down harder. I didn't care.
