Answer:
As i chase the dog down the street, it feels like its getting father and father away. I feel the hard concrete beneath my feet. All i hear is the sound of the rain pattering against the ground. As i run as fast as my legs can, I slowly catch up to the dog. We ran past old houses. As the lightning struck, i jumped on the dog and bit it's neck. It died instantly. AS i slowly dragged the body out of the street, I felt very hungry. I bit and scratched at the dog until his body ripped open. i ate like i haven't eaten in days. I chewed on the bones and licked the blood as if it was water. I left the dog's carcass there and walked into the dark woods. Never looking back.

<u>"About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia:</u> Illnesses affect people, but does not change who they are inside.
In this story, we learn about Russell, and about the difficulties he faced throughout his life due to mental illness. However, the author shows that, even though his illness affected Russell in many ways, he always remained the same person at heart, including being a loving brother.
