Jon looked down at Athena and saw that she was still passed out.
"Come on, Jon," Nadine said. "There's still more people that need to be changed. I might need your help."
"No, I won't help you change anyone else," Jon said, surprising Nadine. Everyone else that she touched went along with everything she said. But for some reason, Jon was different. He did like being a Goth, but he didn't possess Nadine's desire to change more people.
He bent over and helped Athena stand up, then he helped her walk through the crowd. The cafeteria had more than one exit. Maybe one of the other doors was unlocked.
"Hey, you're supposed to do what I fucking want!" Nadine yelled over the commotion coming from all the changed people.
Jessica Davis, Kyla Leeson, and Zach Jones (three of the forty or more new Goths in the room) dashed over to Nadine, after hearing her yell.
"What's wrong?" Kyla asked.
"It's Jon Gibson. There's something ..." She paused for a moment. "Bring him to me."
The three Goths nodded, then pursued Jon.
