They went home and Elliot was still in a trance. It felt as though anything that was said and done after his small daydream was all a vague dream.
He was sitting on the roof again, watching the beautiful colors of the city. Ryan and Miranda left with a note saying they're safe. The others didn't want to pry into their business anymore, even when they wanted to.
The two decided to stay away from them, thinking they'll endanger the participants. In the note also states that the two will support them as much as they could in the background. This was enough to ease their minds, trusting the police officers.
His students were also present outside the arena, but he couldn't feel anyone around him.
Elliot was back in his memories. The time when he was still nothing, and the only thing he was holding on to was his promise to his mother.
