As I regained consciousness, I tried to tell my father, who was beside me, that I was alive, but I was so weak I could not speak. Then, I heard father explaining to Calvin how he got here, on Camazotz.He said he was on a mission to try to tesser to Mars, but instead went to Camazotz. As we had a small discussion mostly regrading the things that happened before, three dark objects or creatures, came and try to take me away. Clearly my father didn't want that to happen. But the three things said that that taking me away was vital for my survival, and he agreed. The things carried me away and I was kind of "asleep" again. I guess they were trying to help me stay alive. Maybe they were being sympathetic towards us.
When I woke up, I was perfectly restored to normal, though I was still quite weak, but the pain that had overwhelmed me so much had all but vanished. I spoke a few things about Earth to one of the things, and it said that life on Earth is quite complicated.Then, the things gave me something to eat. One of them gave itself a name for me to call: Aunt Beast. It was quite funny, so I laughed for a short moment. Aunt Beast explained to me that his planet, Ixchel, shares the same sun as Camazotz.
After that, he took me to meet some other beasts and Calvin and father. I tried to beg for father to try to communicate with Mrs Whatsit, but he said he can't. I was on the verge of scolding him when Aunt Beast stopped me. How could a Father do that to me? Then, all I knew was that the three Mrs Ws were back.
