The group bullies Pritpal into reluctantly running away and James tries to keep his cool before the fear of tardiness sends them all to class. As they run to their next class, they collide with some older boys, which gets them into trouble with George Hellebore, an incredibly muscular American two years their senior. James finds Pritpal in the chaos of the rush to get to class, and the two run to their first classes. On his first schoolday, James is quickly found by his dorm master Codrose, who apologizes for not having met with him the day before before going on his way. On his first day, he meets Pritpal Nandra, who helps him learn the very peculiar ropes of Eton.
After having been taught by his aunt Charmian Bond for most of his life, he begins his schooling a term later into the year than the other boys. When he resurfaces, he finds that the man has disappeared, or so he thinks before seeing his flat and deformed face beneath the water before he is dragged under.įar to the South, James Bond arrives at Eton College for the first time. As their mass drags him under, he calls for help, and sees a man on the far bank running toward him before being dragged down again. After cleaning the wound and beginning to cry for his wasted effort, Alfie tries to return to shore to go home, but finds that the eels seem to be attacking him. Highly disappointed, Alfie prepares to remove his hook and return home, however the eel's flailing drives the hook into Alfie's thumb.
After trying live bait, Alfie gets a bite that after a great struggle to reel it in turns out to be an eel. Alfie finds a great fishing spot where he casts and recasts to no avail. It had been a favorite fishing spot of his father's before he had been injured in World War One and died of lead poisoning after having been disabled for many years due to shrapnel. Alfie, however, was determined to fish in Loch SilverFin, which was on the property. Five years ago, the new Laird had put up the fence and began guarding the property with armed guards.
Alfie Kelly approaches the fence surrounding the local Laird's land and shimmies under the fence through a trench he had been digging for the last few weeks.
