Running through branches and high standing grass, I sprint as fast as my body will move. Insure about how much energy my body has left, I keep pacing a constant speed to catch up to Lennie. As the forest begins to come to an end, there is a lengthy creek that comes to view. Hesitating, I plunge into the water trying to find my dear friend Lennie. Just as I think there is no hope on finding him I see a movement out of the corner of my eye. Thinking it was just an animal, I turn away not even realizing that the animal was Lennie. Lennie, terror- stricken and drizzling, is standing right in front of me. I try to dash toward him, but since my legs are in the water they don’t seem to move quickly. Not even bothered about how slowly my feet are moving I still leap toward him in excitement. Since we were hugging I didn’t even realize that the neighing and running footsteps of the men’s horse were drawing closer to us. “Lennie, we have to get outta here. There is nothing ‘round here that is gonna keep us safe.” “But, George...I thought we were gonna get a ranch here, on the fat of the land, so I could tend them rabbits. You still gonna let me tend them …show more content…
“One, Two, THREE!” Lennie and I sprint toward the bus. I don’t think I have ever seen Lennie run so fast. Just as I think we have made it to safety, a gunshot goes off. Right in front of the old bus, I fall to my knees as my vision becomes blurry. Even through all of the noise and commotion, all I can hear is my ears ringing. Most people would be scared or angry that they are dying, but I was happy because Lennie was safe. Surprisingly, the bus driver took Lennie and drove off. The bus before had just seemed like a bus, but now it was like a chariot, because it carried the only thing important to me in it. As the sight of the bus became vague, my eyes slowly shut and my smile slowly
First off, the bunnies. Many times throughout the book Lennie asks George to tell him about the ranch that they are going to own. The first instance is on page 14, “‘...we’re gonna have a little house and a couple of acres an’ a cow and some pigs…’” and “‘...we’ll have a big vegetable patch and a rabbit hutch and chickens. And when it rains in the winter, we’ll just say the hell with goin’ to work, and we’ll build up a fire in the stove and set around it an’ listen to the rain comin’ down on the roof…’”. The next time the farm is mentioned again is on page 57, “Lennie said, ‘Tell about that place, George.’ ‘I jus’ tol’ you, jus’ las’ night.’ ‘Go on-tell again, George’ ‘Well, it’s ten acres,’...” The final time the farm is mentioned is on page 105, “‘We gonna get a little place,’ George began.” Very early on we learn that Lennie does not have the best memory but he always remembers the farm that he and Lennie are going to own. By the end of the book the reader so badly wants for that dream to come true that it makes the end of the book even more heartbreaking. Since Lennie remembers the farm the reader can infer that that dream is very important to Lennie which makes the reader want to see that dream come true therefore making that reader
Everything was loud. The overstuffed bus of children was leaving the school parking lot for its normal route of sudden stops, unforgiving bumps, and of course, transporting students to their destinations. Opposite from every other child on the bus, I sit quietly in seat fourteen listening to the screaming laughter and shrill excitement of the conclusion of another school year. I sit there in silence because I knew that it would be my last bus ride home. I was trying to take everything in: the smell of the old brown bus seats, the half opened windows that tried to keep us cool, the pleasantly plump and incredibly sweet bus driver, and the jovial and rambunctious sounds of kids cackling and yelping. At every stop, I could
Lastly George was trying to help Lennie live his dream."I remember about the rabbits, George"(steinbeck 4). In this quote it expresses how much Lennie wanted to tend the rabbits. George tells Lennie that if he helped him gather enough money that Lennie could tend the rabbits, this shows that George wants Lennie to be happy and will help him do what he wants to.
"No…you tell it. It ain’t the same if I tell it. Go on…George. How I get to tend the rabbits."
GEORGE - “No—look! I was jus’ foolin’, Lennie. ‘Cause I want you to stay with me. Trouble with mice is you always kill ‘em.”
says “No Lennie. I ain’t mad. I never been mad, an’ I ain’t now. That’s a thing i want
Lennie 's personality is like that of a child. He is innocent and mentally handicapped with no ability to understand abstract concepts like death.
“Well look. Lennie-if you jus’ happen to get in trouble like you always done before, I
I see people go through there Dailey routine like they are robots They're faces have no expressions and they have no thoughts Like an assembly line they organize Who knows what they see If I stepped in there shoes how would I see me Are they human Do they have a brain Are they being controlled, like someone controls an animal with rains I won't ever know what it's like to not be me
“Lennie: I got you to look after me, and you got me to look after you, and that's why.”
“What’re you doing here? Ain’t they gonna get you if they find out that you’re helping me and Lennie escape?”
Out of the mist, came the daunting figure of one with no kindness in his heart, no mercy to spare and no care in the world; for in his hands thick fingers had entangled in deep brown hair as body and feet struggled to keep up. There were grunts and groans ringing out before them as she was forced to a halt, and down on to her knees – Ioreth's struggle in the orc's hands was almost unbearable to watch. Lainon's path to her, however, was blocked, for a group of three orcs had decided to head for him; to make him watch – to make him suffer. The bond between the rangers had been a strong one throughout the trip; quite like a brother and sister. For was it not she and Lainon that had run off into the fog to face the foe? Was it not she who told Ruairmli to stay where he was? At this time, however, he could not, and despite her warning to them all to run, he stepped forward on to the ice, but he should have heeded her words. First he heard the crack, and then he felt himself slowly sink into it, the ice giving way under his large boots, but the water beneath was not all that deep – waist deep if anything, but incapacitating all

he went after the old man like a freight train. As I roar for Lenore the raven soares merely this and nothing more.
