After what happened to Nick, Poe left and went into the forest of Deadheads before Alby and the Keepers showed up. He didn't want to be there when Alby starts yelling at everyone or before he could even begin pointing his finger. He couldn't really blame himself for what happened, not even Clint who asked him to watch Nick. Something like this did happened before, Poe wanted to know about the first Glader who died, so he asked Nick.
George went crazy after he got Stung, resulting the death of another Glader, before he could kill the leader, Alby put a spear into the guy's chest.
He had wonder why Nick was trying to kill Poe, he got Stung, they go crazy and attempt to kill anyone. If anyone, why only Poe though? Clint was right there when he attacked Nick but he still came after Poe. He remembered the look on Nick's face while he was choking him, the look of hatred, hate enough to kill.
Bark found Poe just long moments later, the dog sat down beside Poe and laid his head down on the boy's lap. The older boy was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed and his back against a tree. He stroke the dog's head while staring at the wood, at nothing while feeling somehow guilty. What was he guilty for anyway? It was just there for an unknown reason.
It was half hour later when Teo and Anton found Poe in the Deadheads. Bark was napping with his head still on Poe's lap until he was awoken by Teo and Anton approaching.
"Hey," said Teo, he sat down about couple feet from Poe, "how're you feelin, mate?"
Anton sat in front of the boy few feet away. The poor young boy was the one who knocked out Nick when he came at Poe with a knife. A boy with skinny and tiny arms knocked out the leader with a wooden staff. Poe merely gave a shrug, "I'm alright" he wondered about Nick, even Alby and what's happening out there now. "What's going on now?"
"Well—" Anton sighed, "after you left, they immediately threw Nick into the Slammer. There have been talks and all... and they've proceeded the Gathering so, that's still happening"
If they're still on the Gathering, he wonder if they're still trying to elect the new Second in Command, or it's something else. After what happened to Poe, it's most likely that Alby and the Keepers are talking about Nick.
"So, they're still talking about who's going to be the Second in Command?" Poe stroke the dog's head.
He saw that Anton and Teo were exchanging concerned looks. "I don't think so—" Teo doubted, "what happened today was— something. It's something that can't be avoided. Now that everyone knows that Nick is too dangerous, too dangerous to... be kept... here in the Glade"
