“The Templars had trespassed on our territory, written stuff on our wall, showed us no respect. I didn’t hear any talk about the dog’s head, about how Roth had begun this. In fact I didn’t hear any sense at all. Some kids said that the fight was going to be up there. Some said down here. Everyone knew it was going to be dirty. The talk was that Roth was going to cut Goddo. There were even different versions of this, depending on who you spoke to. Some said he was going to cut him open. Cut him s...o he wouldn’t be alive anymore. Some just said cut, like it was a lesson. I don’t know if any of this went back all the way to Roth, or if it was something people guessed was going to happen, based on Roth’s reputation. At morning break I went and stood with the freaks. By now it was natural. It was what I did. Stevie was telling them about the wall and about the kid and about Shane, using my words. I didn’t mind. I was pleased, in fact. They were good words. Kirk was loud in his praises of Shane’s courage, and that was only right.MoreLessRead More Read Less
