As soon stops to catch a breath, he feels he water cold and sees the island. Cole has to reach the island before he freezes. Cole keeps stroking even while his mind wonders. Cole thinks why there are many Circle stuff, there are Healing Circle, Circle Justice and Circles of Understanding, he thinks that they are going to make a Sentencing Circle or a Bail Circle. Cole goes to a library to the Circle meeting, its the first time without any guards and hand cuffs on him. Cole met the person running the thing, she wore blue jeans and a flannel shirt and she shook Cole by the hands. Cole picks a seat and then a bunch of people come and sit down. NO one sat beside Cole, they just kept eyeing him. Cole's parents came and sat beside Cole but not together. Cole was relived that no one from his class came and then he heard more people come in, it was Peter, his parents and his lawyer. Every one took a seat. The Keeper told every one to stand up and join hands to pray. Cole didn't like to hold hands with his parents because compared to his mother his hands were rocks and hers were velvet and compared o his father's, his' dad's were like steel hands gripping on a sponge. The Keeper also told every one to respect when some one was talking and she showed them a feather that she will pass around and the person who has it will talk if they wish. One by one, every one told why they were there. As it when to Peter, he said that he was there because he got beat up. By the time it got to Cole's mom, she said that she didn't know what else to do. By the time it got to Cole, he said that he really screwed up and that he would just want to change his life, Cole even wiped his nose to make them believe it. Every one heard what they wanted to hear. When it came to Cole's dad, he said that he was there to make sure Cole never causes problems again and that it was going to end now.
