The other three stood there, not knowing what to do. John's screams nearly broke Alexander, causing him to put his hand to his chest as he could almost feel his heart breaking.

"What do we do!?" Thomas yelled, looking at the others.

Lafayette went over to Alexander, helping him up from the floor. "Mon ami, we need to do something."

Alexander coughed. "Any suggestions?"

Lafayette looked down at the shorter man with a look that said Alexander knew what he was going to say. Before Lafayette made even a sound, Alexander shook the is head.

"No, no. We are not going to him for help."

"Who are you guys talking about?!" Thomas said, still panicking.

Alexander groaned. "Samuel Seabury, the priest." At this John yelled out louder and deeper.

"NO! NEVER! THIS IS MY BODY! MINE!" The deep voice growled. He continued to yell until he collapsed on the floor in front of the three men. The yelling stopped. He stopped moving.

Panic drove its way back into Alexander as he rushed to sit next to John to see if he was still alive. He listened closely and heard faint breathing, sighing with relief in response. He whispered John's name, but not even a whisper came from the man who lay on the wood floor.

Alexander looked at Lafayette and Thomas and nodded. "Fine, we'll take him to see Seabury. But one of you will have to pick him up. I would, but.." He gestured to his small figure.

Lafayette looked at Thomas. "I drive us to the church. You pick up Laurens."

Thomas sighed and rolled his eyes, but walked over to carry John to Lafayette's car.

While in the car, Alexander stayed next to John, watching him to make sure he was okay for the time being, completely ignoring his most likely broken ribs. To Alexander, John was more important than a few of his own broken ribs.

It was a quiet, slow, and agonizing drive for the three of them, and John's breathing soon became harsher. Alexander kept complaining about the drive and began to annoy the two in the front seats by telling Lafayette to go faster and asking if they were there yet.

They finally made it to the church and before Lafayette even put the car in park, Alexander nearly jumped out and practically ripped Thomas's door open. Thomas told Alexander to relax for once in his life, but was ignored. He got out of the car and picked up John, worried he will wake up and attack him.

Once Lafayette was out of the car, they all tried to rush into the church, but Thomas could not get past the parking lot.

"I can't get through, Hamilton. Go inside and get him I'll be out here!" He called out to Alexander. Nods were exchanged and the other two rushed inside.

"Samuel Seabury!" Alexander yelled out. "We need your help!"

Samuel seemed surprised to see Alexander in the church, especially the one he worked at. "Mr. Hamilton! What a surprise! What do you need?"

"It's John. There's something wrong with him. It seems like he's....possessed or something!"

"Oh dear. Well I better have a look then. Is he outside?" Samuel asked, walking towards Alexander and Lafayette.

"Yes, now hurry it up! I don't know how long he will be unconscious for." Alexander spun around on his heels and began to run back outside.

Samuel, bible in hand, followed the two outside to where Thomas was crouched, forcefully holding John down onto the sidewalk where he couldn't move very well.

"Took you guys long enough! He's awake now, if you haven't noticed!" Thomas said, grunting as he held John down.
