Authors note: Hey, This is my first fan fic. And I know what your thinking. ~ya this is gonna suck~ BUT ITS NOT. I will make it the best I can. Enjoy my story. OH and our English teacher asked my class a question after we finished the book... ~Do you think Jonas and Gabe lived or died?~ tough question right!

So I'm writing this fan fic on if they lived or died.

So only read this chapter if you think they LIVED.

When Jonas reached the bottom off the hill, Gabe still in his arms, he realized that the echo was not an echo at all, it was in fact music. Jonas, still freezing, sat and listened to the music. He eventually got the willpower to stand up and follow the sound.

He walked with Gabe until he saw lights of different colors: reds, and greens, and yellows. The music was so close Jonas could feel it in his gut, He was so close to Elsewhere.

Soon Jonas and Gabe reached a small town surrounded by snow and a feeling of joy and happiness in the air. Jonas was so confused, he didn't know what to do.

He walked up to one of the small looking houses, wondering if anyone was there. Slowly he knockedon the brown wooden door. The door slowly opened to reveal a girl, not much older than Jonas, she stood there with a curious look on her face.

"Hello." said the girl

"Hello, is there anyone here that could help me? I have a baby with me." he said motioning to Gabe. "and we both have not eaten in days."

"Yeah. Hold on." said the girl sounding concerned. She left then returned with a woman and man that Jonas assumed to be her parents.

"Can you please help me?" then looked at Gabe

"Yes. Of course. Please come in." said the woman

Jonas entered the house, a rush of warmth over whelmed him when a medium sized tree covered in twinkly lights, and beautiful decorations, caught his eye. Jonas walked over to the dressed up tree and stared up at it questionably. Looking at all of the detailed decorations with stars painted on them.

"Why is this tree in your house?" asked Jonas

"It's a Christmas tree. You do know what Christmas is, don't you?" asked the girl

"I only know of it very faintly. I have never actually experienced it."

"Oh."

"What's your name?" asked the woman.

"Oh I'm Jonas, and this is Gabriel."

"I'm Elizabeth, you can call me Lizzy, this is my husband Charles, and this is our daughter Emma. Well Jonas let's get you some food and find a place for you to sleep tonight."

After Jonas and Gabe ate Emma showed them to their room. It was a cozy room with light blue colored wall's, a bed with peach colored sheets with a floral pattern on them, and a window which through you could see the white snow fall gracefully from the sky onto the pure white ground.

"Emma, what is Christmas like?" asked Jonas

"It's a time to be around family and friends and just share love for one another. Christmas is really one of the best times around here with the snow and the music and joy everybody has"

"Oh that's a very lovely way of putting it"

"Thanks. Good night Jonas. I'll see you in the morning."

"Good night. Oh yeah I have one more question, what is this place?" asked Jonas

"Oh. This is Elsewhere."

With that she left. Jonas falling asleep with Gabe wrapped tightly in his arms he fell into the best night of sleep he had ever gotten. A lovely dreamless sleep. As he was just drifting to sleep he could not stop thinking: This is Elsewhere. I made it to Elsewhere. This is where I belong. Elsewhere, finally.
