He felt like something was pulling at him, trying to take him away but when Calvin tried to step back, Charles refused. They kept on walking forward and saw a man sitting on a chair in the back of the room. He said "I have been waiting for you, my dears." with an unexpected kind and gentle voice.

The man provided a turkey dinner for them and the man said that food didn't really have a taste of its own. To Meg and Calvin it tasted absolutely fine but to Charles, it tasted like sand.

Once again, Charles looked into the red eyes and his eyes dilated. He smiled-a smile that wasn't Charles Wallace's smile. Meg realized this wasn't her brother. He wasn't Charles Wallace anymore. She cried "That isn't Charles! Charles is gone!
