The bell rang and Ramon and I headed for first period. “The next thing they says about any of us is gonna be their last.” ‘Let’s wait a while before we even think about doing anything about those cowards.” I said. “No talk in my class!” The teacher said. “ You really think I care!” Said Ramon. “ You can’t say that to the teacher!” I said. “ I can handle this! Hey, teach! Why don’t you just leave me and my friend to talk and you just continue your babysitting job!” “ Dude your really gonna get it now.” The teachers face turned bright red. He walked across the room and it looked like he was he was about to punch him. But since that’s illegal the teacher calmly gave us detention.” That’s what I thought.” Ramon said. The teacher hates me and Ramon cause Ramon talks back and I’m his friend.

After school while Ramon and I are walking to detention and some jocks appeared from across the hall. They don’t really talk much. Of course they know were gonna run so they sent the two star track runners against us. They start sprinting after us and were only slightly ahead. One of them tackles at Ramon but he dodged him and he fell flat on his face. Then Ramon starts kicking him as hard as he can. The other one got scared and ran away. “That was close.” Ramon said. “Man! You went crazy on that guy!” I said. “What are you gonna do know?” Ramon said. “I have a gig in the city. It’s gonna be really boring. I have to play songs that I don’t even like.” “That stinks.” Ramon said. “Were having the physical fitness test the next day so I know I’m gonna fail. And we also have a meet for cross-country with Ricky and Spazzz.” I said. Even though the gig paid really good I decided to skip it so I do good on the physical fitness test and so my team doesn’t lose at the cross-country meet. The next day I meet up with Rickey and Spazzz but Ramon is nowhere in site. All of us pass the test but were all worried about Ramon. It’s time for the cross-country meet and Ramon didn’t show up again. We all just thought he was sick and we waited until tomorrow to find out what happened. The guys and me arrive at school and found out that Ramon was jumped and left at the front of the building.

Questions for Peer Reviewers

1. Think of plot—is it original? (If an adaptation, is it creative or interesting to you?) What suggestions do you have for the author(s)?

2. Think about problems that the characters face. Are there complications that add enough suspense, tension, or interest? Is there a climax that satisfies you? Is the resolution satisfying? What could be added or changed?

3. Think of characterization—are the characters life-like? Are characters likable and enjoyable? Do we get a good sense of character from many of these: description, dialogue, narrator's opinion, discussion from other characters, the character’s own actions?

4. Think of imagery and details. Do they help you //see// and //hear// and //experience// the story? What details would you like to see in the next revision of the story?

5. What areas of the story need the most improvement? What suggestions do you have for the author?
