I stare at the sound system in the old van and ask "Where's the radio?" Tyler looks at me and says "Oh it's in this really weird spot that it's not supposed to be at. Like it's above your head. Just look at the ceiling." I look up at the ceiling of the van and I laugh before looking at Tyler who seemed immensely deep in his thoughts. "Hey, do you wanna talk?" I ask Ty before hearing a small noise that sounded like the word 'no' come from Tyler's mouth. He seems more quiet than usual. I wonder what's going through his mind at the moment.

After ten minutes of solid silence Tyler stops the van and says "Josh, I am getting out here at this abandoned place. Go collect my family and tell them that I'm fine. Tell them not to worry about me at this point. Tell them that I'm having a moment to be alone with my thoughts. But most of all, tell them I love them and that I'll see them later." I look at him and ask "Are you alright Tyler?" Tyler smiles at me and says "Yeah Josh. I am. Just that I need to be alone with my thoughts." I then watch as Tyler gets out of the van and begins walking away. I then slide over to the drivers side and close the door and then drive off to the airport to collect Ty's family as instructed whilst still worrying about Tyler. I really hope he's okay.

I sigh and look up to the sky and notice that it is snowing. Probably not the best idea I've had but I really wanted to be alone with my thoughts and I didn't want Josh to be to concerned about me as I kind of lied to him about my nightmares stopping. I sigh and take my ukulele from out of my backpack and begin playing a few notes before singing one of our songs. I get half way through the song and stop playing because IT is back. BLURRY is back once again to confront me once more.

"Hello Tyler. Remember me? It's your old friend Blurry." I look at the dark shadowy being and see its wearing a blue beanie, black clothing. I also notice that it's eyes are glowing white also. "What do you want Blurry?!" I ask in fear and anger. "Oh nothing much. I just want to see you fall under the pressure of how Josh doesn't really like you as a friend and that he is planning to kill you." I begin to feel short of breath as Blurry is saying this stuff and trying to bring me down. I try to breathe but it is hard to do so as I am in a bit of a panic about the shortness of my breath. "Oh... what's the matter Tyler? Can't talk back? Are you feeling a bit breathless?" I then feel my hands go around my neck (it was as if Blurry was trying to stop me from breathing completely). I then fall to the ground and it then felt as if Blurry was keeping me pinned to the ground to stop me from getting up. I try to yell out for help but it was useless as I was struggling to breathe properly. Why would Blurry do this to me. Why would Blurry hurt me like this? I then hear the cruel laughter of Blurry before I start crying whilst trying to breathe. Moments later I passed out.

After dropping Ty's family off at their home, I go for another drive to see if I can find Tyler. I then notice something that looked like a wild bear on the side of the road. So I stop the van and get out of it immediately. I then run up to the creature only to discover it was Tyler who looked like he was on the verge of death. And so, with all my strength I pick up Tyler and rush him to the van. I then opened up the back of the van and carefully put Tyler in it. I then closed the back of the van and jumped back into the drivers side of the vehicle and closed the door before speeding down the highway just to find the nearest hospital. Every now and then I would look in the rear vision mirror to see if Tyler was ok and every now and then, I'd hear a slight noise come from him and I'd say in a strong voice "COME ON TYLER! STAY WITH ME! YOU CAN LIVE THROUGH THIS! I BELIEVE IN YOU!" After driving for two hours I finally made it to the hospital and so I parked in the hospital parking lot and got out of the van and then ran to the back of it and grabbed Tyler and ran into the hospital and yelling "SOMEONE HELP ME! MY FRIEND CAN'T BREATHE AND HE IS NOT MAKING SENSE OF WORDS! PLEASE!" I then begin crying as a doctor rushes over to me with a hospital bed with wheels on it and asks me to place Tyler on it. The doctor then wheels Tyler away and I am still in tears and began wondering where I went wrong as a friend. I then go and sit down in the waiting area and I then feel a hand on my shoulder. I look up to see this girl who looked pretty. "Hi. I'm Jenna. Listen, sorry about what happened to your friend." She says with a smile on her face. "Nice to meet you, I'm Josh. And uh how did you know about my friend?" I ask as she sighs and says "Well... I was going to leave this place and but then I heard your screams and decided that I should alert a doctor about this." I smile and wipe away my tears before saying "My friends name is Tyler and we've been very close for so long and I just don't know what got into him to decide he was gonna stay out in the freezing cold like that. I mean good thing I got him here otherwise he might be dead. I mean he was already on the verge of death but you know what I mean."
