After Evan and Quinn were taken to the hospital everyone went back to the office. "I can't believe what I just did I delivered a baby"Criss remarked in shock. "Another reason for you to be on the six o clock news"Costa joked as Dimi chuckled. "I wonder what's going to happen to the restaraunt with nobody to run it than Evan may lose it and that Coster guy may buy from underneath him" Dimi worried. "Dimi don't worry all right". The door opened and Felix came in. "Hey Felix what brings you here?". "I heard from Marcus Criss helped deliver a baby today". "Yea Quinn went into labor when she found Evan on the ground having a heart attack"Costa stated. "Place isn't going to be the same with out him". "What do you mean?" Dimi asked. "I just got a call from the hospital Evan died he went flat line at the hospital and they couldn't bring him back".

"Oh my"Costa remarked. " The board is selling the place. We allready got an offer from a guy named Coster Gems"he replied and left. Dimi started to cry as Criss gave her a hug. That afternoon Criss went by the restraunt and saw some people left flowers which made Criss smile. "You'll be missed Evan"Criss muttered. "Who put this memorial here!!"someone called out. Criss saw Coster coming over. "Hey show some respect a man died"Criss said. "I don't care if Houdini himself died here". He picked up the flowers and cards than threw them in the trash as he picked up the fence. Criss walked off wanting so bad to hit the guy to teach something about respect. As Criss was leaving for Believe he saw an officer walking in. "Hey Criss". "Someone stealing from The Luxor" he joked. "No someone was assaulted an eighteen year old". Criss felt a pang in his stomach so he decided to go with him.

When they got there a couple of the fanasty girls were sitting on the fountain. When the dancer moved Dimi was sitting there with a coat over her shoulders and some of clothes were torn . "What happened?"the officer asked. "We were coming past here when we heard screaming and swearing"one of the girl remarked. "So we walked in and saw a guy holding this poor girl down while his johnston hanging out so I grabbed the guy as the girl ran. That guy as he zippered up saying that the girl liked it rough than asked if I wanted a taste instead I pepper sprayed his ass". "I brought the girl out here and gave her my coat than called you guys". "Where's the attacker?" the officer asked. "In pantry we put him in there so he wouldn't leave". The officer went in with the girls as Criss sat next to Dimi. Dimi hugged her uncle as she cried. "It's all right Dimi he won't hurt you again"Criss assured her.

After the police took her statement they decided to take her to the hospital just to make sure everything was all right. At the hospital Criss sat in the waiting room wondering if Dimi was all right and hoped that guy didn't hurt her. "Christopher is that you?"a voice called out. He turned and saw Quinn. "Quinn what are you doing down here you should be upstars with your son?". "My nephew and his mom Care down here his mother and him got into a car accident coming to visit us. What are you doing here did one of your tricks go bad". "I wish Dimi was attacked by that Coster guy"he remarked. "Is she all right?" Quinn inquired. "She's being looked at right now. I can't believe Coster did that to my niece" he replied. "If I was there he wouldn't be a man anymore if you catch m drift",Quinn stated as Criss chuckled.

"I heard about Evan I can't believe he's gone". "I know and they're selling the place"Criss replied. "I heard Coster may buy the place". "I don't think Felix will sell it to him now that he attacked my niece and got himself arrested"Criss stated. "Well I should get back upstairs before they think I decided to ditch my child talk to you later" and Quinn left. After Quinn left JD and Lynn came in. "Criss where's Dimi. Is she all right?" JD asked. "I'll hurt that man if he hurt my daughter"Lynn stated. "Lynn JD take a breath sit down. Dimi is being looked at by a doctor but I don't think He hurt her that way. Some of the fanstay girls heard her yelling so they got her out of there"Criss replied as they sat down.

When Criss finally got home Sandra was waiting for him. "Criss where hae you been we had plans for tonight?"she askeds. "I was at the hospital Dimi got attacked". Sandra couldn't believe it as they sat down. "Is she all right?". "She's fine JD and Lynn are with her" Criss remarked. "What's really wrong Criss you like you're ready to cry" she asked. "You know that restraunt at The Luxor we met at". "Yea our first date was there sharing a thing of garlic fries" Sandra remarked sitting next to him. "Evan had a heart attack and he died". Tears fell down Sandra's face. "What's going to happen to the place?". "I don't know really"Criss replied. Sandra and Criss just sat there quietl. The next day when Criss got to work reporters were there. What the heck is going on here he wondered. After he parked his car and went to his office Costa was waiting there.

"What the heck is going on out there?"Criss asked him. "Coster who attacked Dimi he has a record for sexual assault". "I think Felix isn't going to sell that place to him now"Criss muttered. "Come on let's get to work" and they went in. As the day went on Criss couldn't stop thinking of what was going to happen to that place. Criss got up and went for a walk.

[RACHEL02189]

When Criss went pass the restraunt he saw some officers. "Excuse me" Criss asked. The officer looked up and it was Officer Willmer. "Christopher SarantakosI forgot you work here at The Luxor"she stated with a smile. "How's your mom?". "Good she went sky diving for her eighth birthday"she replied. "That would be funny to see my mom do that for her birthday so what's with the police I thought Coster was charged" Criss inquired. "We're just crossing our 'T' and dotting our 'I' as your father would say" she replied. "All right". After the walk Criss came back to see a a lawyer talking to Felix. "Criss come here for a minute"Felix called out. He walked over to Felix. "Criss this is Harry Zhang he's the executor of Eddie's will". Criss shook his hand. "You must be Christopher Angel Mr. Schwartz talked alot about you".

"My crew and I probably kept Evan is business since we moved in here. I even met my fincee there. It's a shame that Evan passed away"Criss said. "Well according to Mr. Schwartz's will he's left the restraunt to a lady named Quinn and he left you something as well"he replied. "Seriously" Criss stated. "He considered you and your crew family. He said that your crew and your family were the best customers he ever had"the lawyer remarked. "So what did he leave me?". "It seems Mr Schwartz left you this" giving Criss an envelope. "Thanks"Criss remarked. Criss took the envelope into the office. "What's with the envelope Felix paying you off again"Gerard joked. "No Evan left me something in his will"Criss remarked sitting at his desk. "Well open it". Criss opened it and it was a letter.

Inside the envelope was a check for a hundred thousand dollars. "Holy " Criss muttered looking at the check. "So what should we do with this?"JD wondered. Everyone looked at eachother wondering that same thing.

Great Chapter , i can't wait to find what they do with the money

[RACHEL02189]

"I-I-I-don't know"Criss stuttered. "You didn't know about this?". "No I'm in shock that Evan left us that money"Criss replied. "Why don't we split it". "Yea how five dollars and twenty-five cents sound because if we did that for everyone right down to the people who set up magic place to the person who does Criss's hair that's probably how much you'd probably get"JD said as Criss chuckled. "Well we have to give a bit to Dimitra since she gave Evan a recipe that his crowd loved"Luke suggested. "All right but I don't know what to do withthe rest"Criss said. "Well untill we figure it out why don't you ask Felix to hold on to that"Costa suggested. "All right"Criss replied. Criss went up to Felix's office and knocked on his door.

Felix opened the door. "Christopher what can I do for you?". "I was wondering if you can put this in your safe". "What is it?". "Evan left me a check for a hundred thousand dollars". Felix whistled. "Wow what are you going to do with it". "Well three hundred goes to my mom because she gave Evan a recipe that his patrons loved but the rest I don't know so do you mind". "Sure"Felix remarked. "Thanks" and Criss left. A few days passed and Criss was leaving after doing Believe when he went passed the place and saw Quinn inside. "Hey Quinn what are you doing here?". "Just getting some stuff from Evan's office" showing him some. Criss saw he had a picture of him and Evan. "I can't believe Evan kept this picture. Costa took this when I moved into The Luxor"Criss remembered.

"There's something else you don't know. You inadvertently got Evan this spot". "What do you mean?"Criss asked. "When Felix started to plan where to put Believe Evan's restaurant was there so Felix moved him here for half the leasing price"Quinn stated as Criss smiled. "What else you got in there?". "his recipe book and this" showing Criss a picture. "I know this place it's a homeless shelter I did a Mindfreak over there a few years ago"Criss replied. "Criss that's Evan in the back" pointing it out. "You want what let me hold on to this I have a feeling it may lead us to find out a little more about Evan"Criss replied and left.

[RACHEL02189]

At Serenity Criss was looking at the picture that Quinn gave him in his office so not to distrub Sandra as she slept. His mind wondered if Evan had volunteered there or was he living on the street when this picture was taking. I wish Evan was alive I could ask him myself Criss thought. Criss yawned as he looked at his watch that said three twenty-two in the morning. Criss put his arms on the desk than his head and closed his eyes. "Hey buddy wake up". Criss opened his eyes and saw he was in the shelter. "Here hve something warm to eat" giving Criss a tray of food with some mik. "Thanks man"Criss remarked. "No problem and call me Evan". Criss looked around at all the people including kids and old people.

"Hey you"a voice called out. Criss looked up at a guy with glasses. Criss saw his reflection and saw he looked like the homeless guy he protrayed in television movie and showed him the poor side of Las Vegas and Sanctuary House. "Something wrong with you?'. "Sorry" and moved over. After Criss finished eatting he saw Evan and walked over but he disappeaed before Criss could get him. Criss turned around and saw the place was empty just an empty lot. Criss saw he wasn't dressed like a homeless man anymore but himself. "Christopher"a voice called out. Criss didn't know where the voice was coming from. "Christopher wake up". Criss woke up and saw Sandra with her hand on his shoulder. "Sandra where am I" he asked still not awake. "You're in your office at the house. What time did you come in last night". Criss looked at his watch and saw it said seven o clock.

Banging head

[RACHEL02189]

Criss got up and went to the kitchen for some coffee to remove the cobwebs from his brain as Sandra followed him. "Criss what's going on with you?" she inquired. "I-I-I don't know ever since I got that check from Evan's estate my brain is just-". "Just what". "I don't know I need a shower" and went upstairs. In the bedroom Criss shut the door and sat on the edge of the bed. He put his head into his hands feeling like he was losing it or that his brain was malfuctioning. I think it's time for a vacation Criss thought. He untied his shoes and threw them into the corner. As Criss took off his shirt he felt a cold breeze hit him givinng him chills up and down his back. Criss got up and started for the bathroom when he tripped and fell to the floor. When Criss woke up he was back at the shelter. "Pastor Ray"a voice called out. Criss saw Pastor Ray walking over.

"Yes Samaul what can I do for you?". "I heard about your wife I'm so sorry for what happened to her" he remarked. "If we were meant to have a child than it would of happened, but thank you". I never knew that about the pastorCriss thought as he followed the pastor. The pastor went otside to sneak a smoke which his wife had been trying since they got married to make him quit. He stood near a dumpster as he lite he heard a muffled cry. The pastor looked at the trash next to the dumpster and looked through it to find a new born thrown away. The pastor took off his coat and wrapped the baby in it. "Michelle"he called out. Michelle came out and saw the new born wrapped in his coat. "Call an amblunce tell them we found a new born". "Pastor it must just been born the umblical cord is still attached to the child"she remarked. The pastor looked and saw that the cord had been tied off and cut. "Who in their right mind would do that to baby boy". "I'll call the police too".

The pastor went in and kept the baby warm. "I shall call you Evan". Criss couldn't believe it than a flash of light hit Criss blining him. "Criss it's all right" as someone grabbed his wrist. Criss saw he was in the hospital with Sandra and a doctor in the room. "What happened" as Criss laid back. "You tripped over yor shoes and hit your head against the end table. I couldn't wake you up so I called an amblunce"Sandra replied. "I was wondering why my head hurts"Criss muttered. "I'm going to get a CT scan just to rule out a brain bleed but so far I think you just have a concussion and nasty gash"the doctor replied and left.
