Chapter 5 prediction

       I think Cassie will go up to Mr. Barnett and say, "Um, Mr. Barnett, I think u forgot about T.J.'s list."
  
     "Well actually I didn't, you see I have to help them white people before I help you fellas."
  
     "Well I don't think that is fair." 

     "Well that's just the way it is and your just going to like it."

     And then Cassie gets in big trouble and has to suffer severe consequences, and hurts her bad.

Chapter 13 Cave

     I wanted to see want he was looking at.  And when he let me see I could not believe what was before my eyes.  It made the room glow.  Papa and I were speechless.  There was weapons, piles and piles of weapons.  There was enough weapons to make a hillock of weapons.  They were as shiny as water when the sun glistens on it.  There was gold, sliver, and bronze axes and swords.  They were very heavy.  I wonder why Mr.Pluto kept all these and didn't sell any, I thought to my self.  They were very heavy.
