Ashley's POV 

After we had dropped Chris off at his apartment to cool down, we waited outside of his apartment building. Jess began to break down. She was the most emotionally unstable out of us, a close second being Emily, third runner up being Mike, and finally coming in last being Matt. 

Maybe that's why, those four all seem to bond together.

Chris's POV 

I looked into the mirror and viewed myself with pure hatred

I mean, how could I not hate myself? I finally realized I am falling in love with a psycho

Or...

Was psycho not the correct term to label Joshua Washington?

He's confusing, dynamic, and drastic.

He couldn't be put into a box. He would break the box.

Josh's POV 

I looked at Sam and began the story.

"So, what happened was when I 'died'" I did finger quotes when saying this "I had basically just fainted like a dramatic dame on stage. I woke up in a lab. This lab was located in Washington D.C.  They did..." I gulped "Let's just say not so nice things to me upon seeing me halfway transformed to a Wendigo. All of the pain didn't go to waste, they stopped the transformation but unfortunately was not able to reverse it..." I let my sentence trail off as I thought of my new appearance. 

Sam's eye finally went from their blitzed look to a look of sympathy

"Why did you have to reach out this way, Josh?" Sam asked her voice still showing her confusion. 

"I don't know, it felt right to do it this way." I said

That sentence enveloped my entire life. I never knew why I did something, I just did it because it felt right.

On stage the actor tries his best to follow the script, but will still do what he feels is right. 

I guess in life, I am still a true actor.
