Chapter 5 Alternate Ending


Russ pulled into the drive way and i got into the window so he could see me. I began to bang my head against the window loud enough so he could hear me but quiet enough so that the bikers couldn't. Russ heard me and looked up. i could barely hear him through the window but i could make out him saying, what the hell are you doing man?
Russ climbed up the wall and made it onto the roof so he could open up the window. Why are you all tied up, he said. Whats going on?
The bikers found out about you steeling from them. they think i did it too man. untie me so we can get wout of here.
Okay but I have to get my stuff out of the living room, he said. he had a bunch of his clothes and a little bit of drugs that he had scored in a tan duffel bag on the couch in the living room where all of the bikers were either partying or passed out. I go, dude you cant, they are all sleeping in there. they are gonna find you and they are gonna kill you. They were ready to kill me before you came. Then he says, don't worry about it dude, they wont catch me.
Russ untied me and i followed him down the stared into the living room even though i didn't want to. most of them were passed out except for Joker who was half asleep playing with his pistol. he was facing the wall, soruss snuck around him and grabbed the bag from the couch, but Joker heard him.
Hey! there you are you little freak! Hey guys wake up, Russ is back, get him!
Russ turned around and looked at me. Crap, lets get out of here! he said.
As Russ began to run one of the bikers on the couch grabbed him by the arm and threw him onto the couch. Joker ran up and held him down. You're going to get it kid! he said. Russ looked up and threw me the keys to his Camaro. He goes, Get the hell out of here dude! they got me, get the hell out of here!
I didnt want to leave him but i knew that if i didnt they were going to kill the both of us. i looked at the keys, then back at Russ and said, okay man, but i dont like this. you were a good friend.
I turned and ran out the front door and over to the Camaro and got into it as fast as I could. I pulled out of the drive way and burned out as I sped away. As I drove, I couldnt help but think that i could have saved Russ from those bikers. I was sure that he was dead now, but I still wondered what they were going to do to him. I started towards my Mom's house.

Rule of the Bone


Chappie gets kicked out of Russ's place for not having any weed. So he goes to the mall to try and find a place to stay. when he is wandering around, the same security guard from before tries to kick him out but it doesn't work. Chappie just goes back into the mall. While he is wandering around, he finds this little girl in a torn up red dress and no socks. he feels worried about her but she just runs away when he tries to help. Then he sees her later at the Victoria Secret with a big fat bald guy. Chappy thinks they are from Canada, because they looked a little bit weird, like they didn't belong. Chappy follows the two around the mall, until finally he confronts him in the food court, and asks him if he could spare some change so he could get some food. The guy seems to be really nice, and buys Chappy some food and sits down and talks to him. He explained how he used to be an actor, and how the little girl was his "Protege". Chappie felt bad for the girl, so he wanted to take her place as his "Protege". he said he would go to the mans house for a "screen test" if he gave him twenty bucks. they begin to leave the mall but then Chappie sees disfigured manikins and it makes him realize what he is really doing. he runs away without giving the guy his money back so the guy chases him but chappie loses him. he ends up spending the next couple weeks in a janitors closet in the mall.

This "Canadian"guy is obviously a child molester. he was buying woman's underwear from victoria's secret for a little girl. how creepy is that? if Chappie had actually gone with him to his house, i think he would have gotten molested.

The main character is very confused. It seems that he subconsciously aware that most of the things he does is wrong, but he still does them. he knew that steeling from the mall was wrong. and he knew that steeling from his parents is wrong, but he does it anyway. Because of the people he stays with and the world he has been exposed to (drugs and drug dealers), he has been conditioned to do these things. underneath all of that, he is a good kid.

The Xmas fantasy proves this. he says he wants to show up at his parents house with a big bag of presents and make them both happy. he would love to do that, but that's not him anymore. the fantasy reveals that he wants to do good and he is deep down a good kid, but he has gone way to far the other direction.

Here are few facts about homeless teens.
1. Half of all runaway teens leave after being physically abused.
2. 1 in 3 homeless people are under the age of 18.
3. Half of all runaway teens leave after having a disagreement with their parents.
