The man who answered the door was no stranger to him, Chris remembers: flashes of the past starts to come back all at once, he sees the way he beat him for losing his school book and remembers all the harsh and unforgivable actions he had done to him and his family.
This man name is Henry Gilson and is the main reason why Chris left Elmville.
Johnathan starts to worry about Chris, he wonders what could possibly be taking him so long to get help. With his hand pushing up on the bed so he can get up, with all his strength he managed to get on his feet.
He felt a connection with Chris he seems to know something is wrong, he feels it in gut, he no longer was feeling sick. He walked slowly towards the door, the door was a bright green color as to him it always apeared blue, without hesitation he went out the door he turn to his left and saw Chris frozen in the doorway of the elder's cabin.
"Umm... Chris I don't feel sick anymore... Is everything okay.
Chris says in a panic okay lets go back in your cabin ... Sorry mister for knocking on your door... False alarm I guess chris says laughing with a fake laugh.
He rushed over to Johnathan.
The elder had a look of confusion on his face... He thought to himself - that boy looks so familiar to me ... Where do I know him from... Must be a student- with that thought he closes his door.
As Johnathan and Chris hurries inside the cabin Johnathan started seeing everything as if for the first time. Shapes, colors, the world all looked different. He sees a chair in the kitchen which his father gave him on his last birthday. The chair no longer looked old and rusted but now new and shiny.
He also noticed how his window in his room has a yellow tint to it, it always seemed clear to him before.
Now with Johnathan in front of Chris, Chris notice something sticking out of Johnathan's back, it was gleeming in the sunlight that had managed to slip through the widow in the cabin.
" Oh my goodness, you have something sticking out of your back" Chris says urgently.
Eager to see and pull the object out of his back he reached his hand around his shoulder and pulled it out... It was a huge needle.
It had some type of greenish brown liquid inside of it. It almost appeared as thick as mud, barely moving as Johnathan moved the needle to examine it.
"Why was a needle in my back and what is inside of it.. it looks deadly, who stabbed me and why?" Johnathan said reluctantly
Chris.. Crazily.... Seemed unattached with reality he was to busy wondering if the elder in the next cabin knew him... He wondered if the elder remebered him.
Pulling himself together, Chris tells Johnathan to retrace his steps.
Chris says impatiently " have you came in contact with someone who does not like you, someone new, someone that's in trouble right now, someone on the west wing of the school"?
"What, how, when... You know about Alice don't you, you can't possibly think I've been stabbed with this needle by her do you"? Johnathan said surprisingly.
Wondering how Chris knows about him being around Alice
Johnathan said questionably
" how do you know about me meeting Alice today"?
