In Millions, the reader gets a glimpse into the life of Poundcake, revealing that he lost his little brother and doesn't speak because his mother told him to shut up just before she died of the plague. She trips over the body of Ben and shoots Evan in the leg. Evan dodges him, but is stopped by Cassie. Evan knocks him unconscious and then makes his way down the hall to Sammy, who shoots the gun at Evan through the door. When he first sees Ben after making it to the hotel at last, Evan punches him to make sure he won't shoot him, leading Ben to attack him. In the present day, Grace realizes that Evan is in love with a human, Cassie. They became romantically involved at that time. They both realized that they were Others, and finally not all alone in the world. With his broken ankle, Evan doesn't get very far and ends up hiding under a car like Cassie did in the first book.Įvan reminisces about the first time he and Grace met, when they were sixteen and at a county fair. He thinks he has succeeded, but Grace has only passed out. Evan tries to garrote her so that he can escape. Grace realizes that Evan is playing at being human, which is not part of their mission. Like Evan, she is a Silencer tasked with taking out any humans that cross into her territory. They keep on the move in order to make it back to Grace's station in the woods along Highway 68. She interrogates Evan about the human's infiltration of the base and does not find his story believable at all. Grace is strikingly beautiful and an Other like Evan.
However, she does not trust him and remains very suspicious of how he came to be at the base, his role in the event, and his relationship with Cassie. Grace pulled him out of the army base and nursed him back to relative health.
Evan is being tended to by Grace, an old friend of his. When he awakes, Evan is in a great deal of pain and can barely move. The reader realizes that he must still be alive after the army base exploded, impossible as that may seem. In The Last Star, the point of view shifts to Evan.
