Hero's Journey

While reading the Bunker Diary Linus takes on the Hero's Journey. In the beginning Linus sees an old man who portrays to be blind and helpless. He needs help trying to load things in his van but his arm is supposedly broken and he can't lift anything.The old man just simply lures him into getting into the back of his truck and that is when the old man strikes Linus. Now, he is captured. This is where Linus reaches part two. The road of trials. Linus tries to make escape plans to get out of this basement or wherever he is because he is not sure. Him and all  the other people who have been captured put their minds together to try to figure something out. Linus is the only one who tries to go through with any plan no one really believes in Linus's plan to escape. The only person Linus really has that is willing to help him is Jenny. She's 9 years old and wants to escape as well. After about a month in this basement they are finally getting full fledged meals and are starting to look like themselves again after only eating about a slice of bread. The older people that are down there with him look up to him for his bravery and him trying to escape. Linus never returned home. He stayed in the bunker until he and everybody else died. the only thing is Linus was the last to die due to starvation. He tried everything to stay alive but the man who captured him stopped sending food down and stopped acknowledging him and left him to die by his lonesome. Therefore Linus did not complete the Hero's Journey but he did try to stay alive and complete it by fighting all the way to the very end.
