    Change can be seen as a form of transformation or conversion.

Having the perspective of each character allows us, the readers to get a much greater understanding about them and to make a better character analysis. Having said that, this story is simply about a girl, Alison getting kidnapped by an unnamed kidnapper. What were really captivating were the changes spotted on characters as the conflict progresses. One character in particular is very intriguing and his name is Kyle. One of our main character, Alison gives a small description on Kyle as she spots him running outside through her window, moments before the incident with the kidnapper: “He looked like a skeleton with a mullet.” (71). She further describes him as a weird and wimpy guy. With these descriptions we can easily paint a picture of how Kyle looks and boy does he sound “heroic”. It may be hard to imagine, but Kyle has changed from the beginning of the story to the end, and this change may even be described to be heroic.…
