He's the victim, although most his thoughts of what happened all those years back had remande uncertain, Cole still remembers what happened to his dear friend... or, what "was" his friend now. What will he ever do if he somehow encounters that terrible thing that chased him in his minecraft world, and his nightmares, and even around his old house? All he knows now is that he escaped, he fortunately didn't get the same fate John had. He's 24 years old now, and has a rather normal life, scarred still, but he sure lives more peacefully than before...
