The Innocent People, The Slaughter

And I do not want it” (63, ch. 6). He does not want everyone to be there eager to murder innocent ranchers, some of whom attended his son’s christening (62, ch. 6). It is difficult to witness this event through Peter’s eyes because the reader sees a mass slaughter.

Feet shuffled through the halls as the bell rang, indicating for class to start. Something seemed to be in the air, though, that just didn 't quite seem right.
