Elijah is wasting away and all Xavier can do is watch. The morphine has taken a hold of his sanity and now he believes he is invincible. He frequently goes on raids by himself and his fear is completely drained from his mentality. Drug abuse is a very scary topic to read about. What can happen to someone's mind is far worse that what can happen to their bodies. How can you reason with someone who has already lost their marbles?
Drug abuse is not something to laugh about. It destroys families and friends, just like what is happening to Xavier and Elijah. Once you start the drug abuse there is almost always no way of coming back. You fall down into a pit and sink down so far that you need help from others to get you out. If they still consider you a friend. You can't magically regrow your murdered brain cells, you can't hide the fact that your reflexes are loosening, and you can't run from the rot that slowly overtakes your body and feeds on your disgusting habits.
It has finally came to this. Xavier can no longer see the good in Elijah and fears for his life. Elijah spoke words to him but Xavier took those as threats. After a short-lived tussle between them, it is over. Xavier removes his rifle from Elijah's blue neck, steals his medicine and ID tags, then the story cuts off. It had to be done. There was no more hope left in Xavier that Elijah would come back to reality. He was too far gone and he needed to be stopped. This ending was heart breaking but it had to be done for the sake of Xavier's existence.
