I went down with a heavy heart and a frown. I hibernated for a day! I know I was over reacting but seriously, I'm going to miss Michael. After 10 hours of crying, I managed to drain all the possible tears on my eyes and got over. I thought we had a connection, but sadly, it's just an imagination. I shrugged my thoughts away, if I'm going to think about him all day, I'll just miss him over and over. I saw three people with weird clothing and hair, though I recognized one of them. They were talking to Cordelia and Fiona.

"Looks like there's still one more to be questioned...", Myrtle told me, and instructed me to come with her. I went inside an empty room with her and sat in front of her. I looked down, I'm really not in the mood, but it's very disrespectful to act like this, so I regained my posture.

"Have you seen Madison Montgomery? When did you last see her? She was reported to be missing yesterday at exactly ten pm...", She took out a notepad, and began to write things. Wait, Madison's missing?

"Wait, she's missing? How?", I frowned, maybe she ditched going here? After all, she hates almost every one of us here.

Myrtle just looked at me straight, "Just answer the question, dear...".

"Uhm okay... The last time I saw her was yesterday in the morning... She answered the telephone and went upstairs. That was the last interaction we had...", she continued to look at me. She was like trying to intimidate me to tell the truth, like squeezing and choking my tongue to spill the things she wanted to hear. But she eventually gave up and told her 'council' that I'm not a suspect.

I missed so much yesterday. I didn't even notice that Madison went missing last night. I didn't even notice that Queenie fucked a minotaur last night. And I didn't even notice that I swore at my last sentence. The longer I stay inside this coven, the more I forget that I was a nun for a year and a half. I didn't know if it was for the better or for the worst. And lastly, I didn't even notice that today is Halloween. Jesus Christ, I lost my track of time. And I didn't even notice that we have a maid.

I dressed as Stevie Nicks today, I looked at myself at the mirror and twirled like she did in Gypsy, if only Misty's here, she would've joined me too. I went downstairs and saw our new neighbour conversing with Nan, obviously flirting with each other.

I saw Delphine, the new maid, handing some candies to the children. I went down and saw everyone in their costumes. I smiled at them and grabbed an apple out of the tray,

"What's your costume, Gabby?", Zoe asked me,

"Oh, Stevie Nicks...", she nodded at me. "Hey, how are the things going on with Kyle?", I asked her, she pulled me to a corner, and checked if anyone was looking.

"Gabby, don't freak out but...Kyle killed her mom.", I widened my eyes at her, I think it was a big mistake that we brought him back to life. I think that Satanic ritual triggered something in him.

"What? Why the fu-"

"Guys, look outside.", Nan said with a shaky voice, we approached her and shared a horrified look with each other. Wait a minute, these are not zombie trick or treat children costumes, these are legit. The outside shows an army of the undead laying siege to our house.

We were all terrified except Luke who thinks it's just an elaborate Halloween prank,

"Come on guys, I'm sure they'll do you no harm. I'll prove to you that these are just kids who wants attention and scares...", he headed for the door, but Nan held him back,

"Luke, no!"

"It's fine, Nan. I'll be okay", Luke reassured Nan, who slowly pulled away from him. He walked among the dormant zombies, thinking they are Halloween pranksters. We were all watching in horror, afraid of what's going to happen next. Then shortly, a teenager came, saying that their make ups were really good. It was all fun and games until his screams of agony rang in our ears as he was torn apart by the zombies. We all shouted at Luke to come back inside, but it was too late. He was struck by an ax at the back. We tried to stop Nan to go outside but she resisted. The undead converged on them and didn't have time to reach the house, so Nan and Luke take refuge inside Cordelia's car.

Zoe and I shut the lights off and closed the curtains,

"Spalding, go and take Queenie and Delphine to your room...", The butler didn't move a muscle, Zoe sighed impatiently, "Then pick a room and keep them safe."

She then turned her attention to me, "Okay Gabriel, I have to distract the zombies so that Nan and Luke can escape, don't leave the house...", I didn't have time to reply as she took two pots and ran outside, clashing the two metals together. I walked back and forth, not knowing what to do.

"Seek your luggage..."

A deep yet soft voice told me, I went to my room and took my bag. I opened it to see a jewelry-like box. I lifted the cover open and saw two dagger like Sai's. I took the weapon on my hands and practiced it as if I was already used to fight. I was shocked because of two things :

1. How did this get in my bag?

2. How the hell did I do that?

I read the handle, it reads "ut imperet tibi Dominus", this is what Archangel Michael said when he defeated Satan when he tried to take the body of Moses. It means "may the Lord rebuke you".

I wasted no time and went rushing downstairs.

"Gabriel! Help Zoe! She's trapped inside!", Nan told me while aiding the bleeding boy,

I immediately went outside. I don't know where I got the courage to fight, it just appeared out of nowhere.

"Hey!", I called the attention of the zombies. They all went to my direction, I ran towards them and threw the other dagger-sai directly on the head of the undead. I summoned it back and began punching, kicking, and stabbing them one by one.

I saw Zoe come out of the small storage room with a chainsaw, she ran towards the zombies and cut them out one by one.

I ran to a zombie stabbed it under it's chin, another one tried to attack me but I stabbed it by the back of their neck. I fell down to the ground because of exhaustion, I didn't notice that there was one more zombie behind me until Zoe ran towards my direction and said,

"Be in your nature.", The zombie fell down, we defeated all of them.

"We definitely overpowered walking dead in that one", Zoe joked as I laughed. I was still confused though. I examined my weapon, Where did this come from? And how the hell did I fight like that? I couldn't even believe myself. For all I know, this is over.
