Monday/title:Touching Spirit Bear,chapter 1, 13 pgs & 20 min read

A 15 year old boy named Cole Mathews Knelt did many crimes and has been bailed out of possible jail because his parents had the money and the connections to excellent lawyers. Cole is on a plane to a island in the middle of nowhere in Southeast Alaska because he has been band from his home for many crimes that he has done and the winning crime was that he beat up a ninth grade kid for ratting out Cole when he robbed the hardware store and then trashed it and no one knew until he bragged about it when he broke some kids and Cole broke into school. At school Cole saw Peter Driscal, the guy who have ratted out Cole, and then he push Peter and said "this isn't over" and after school Cole cornered Peter in the parking lot and started the fight with a full force punch and then started beating him up and when Peter fell to the ground Cole got Peter's head and smashed it to the sidewalk repeatedly but then five kid were able to hold Cole down but Cole was still laughing at Peter because Peter was crying on the bloody floor. Cole has been in a dozen police stations, been through many counselors, a psychologist, several detention centers, and two residential treatment centers for as long he could remember for all his crimes. For the crime he did to Peter, Cole has been sent to an adults courts house to decide for the really bad crimes he has done, not even Cole's parents could brake him out because they previous could even move a mountain with the money and connections they got but they got divorce and they didn't have enough money and Cole really hated his parents because they didn't even go together to visit Cole in the detention center he was in while the court decided Cole's fate. Cole hate how his mother looked like a sad Barby and that his father got easily angry at Cole and thinks it's always Cole fault. Garvy, the probation officer, visited the people in the center often and then he went to talk to Cole and make a deal, Cole had to join a group called Circle Justice and he had to help people and at first Cole didn't want to join but after Garvy told him that it could take off the time that Cole has to be in jail, so Cole joined and he said after Garvy left that " Now i know how to play the game".
