The sentence which uses correct punctuation is C. In time, of course, all issues get resolved, but not necessarily in the way you would like.

In A, the comma before he was concerned should be a dash. In B, there should be a colon before a flashlight, not a semi colon. In D, there should be a comma before yet, and not a colon.
