John knows that it is Sarah who is trapped inside the house. There is no other option for him but to save his girlfriend that he loves. He first runs to the back of the house so that nobody will be able to see him running into the burning house. When he enters he is engulfed in flames and can hear that Sarah is upstairs. He starts to climb up the stairs when suddenly they collapse. John then just jumps to the second floor and heads down the hall looking for Sarah. Eventually he finds her huddled in a room with Mark's dogs. John graps all three of them and then jumbs out of the house and into the backyard bringing them to saftey. John and Sarah head into the woods and there John is forced to tell Sarah about him being an alien and the powers that he has. Suprisingly Sarah takes it really well and says that she will love him no matter what.
To decsive the people watching the house burn, John and Sarah sneak back to the front yard where they find a car with a change of clothes so it hides that John was in the fire. They are then greeted with a police officer and a reporter who say that two witnesses saw John jump out of the fire. John and Sarah deny that anything of the such occured but the reporter does not believe the story that John makes up. The reporter keeps trying to ask John questions and says he will find the truth. Henri then comes and picks up John, Sarah, and Sam to take them home. John again tells the lie that he never entered the fire because he knows that Henri will force him to leave the town if he knows that people have started to noitice his unusual powers.
The next school day, John is relieved to see that the report on the house fire in the newspaper has no news about John. He is happy the entire day knowing that he will not have to leave Paradise, Ohio. During home ec class, John is called down to the office and he knows that it could be bad news. Mr. Harris shows an article on the internet to Jon that has the title The James House Fire: The Untold Story. John now knows that the reporter had told what he think really happened. John also recieves a fax that is confidental and all it says is "ARE YOU NUMBER 4?" At this same time Henri pulls up in his pick-up truck frantical and John knows that they will have to run away form Ohio and start a new life. When Henri enters the room, John decideds to run away and jumps through the glass window.
The story is starting to getting intense because of the fax that asked "are you number 4." I believe that it was the Mogadorians who sent this to him and they are on his tail ready to kill him. Now he is running away and I have no idea where he could be heading because he really has no where to go besides home. John would be heartbroken if he would not be able to say good-bye to Sarah. I am interested to see where this story leads to because I have no idea what will happen next.
