The Giver by Lois Lowry Chapters 13-16

Jonas can now see a full perspective of all colors that surround him. After many weeks of training with The Giver, he’s starting to wonder where the pain of the whole training is. Then, the Giver gave him a memory which involved the same hill from the memory of snow, only that this has much steeper and felt more dangerous. Jonas had rode down the cliff and couldn’t handle the sleigh very well.  After a while of riding down the cliff, Jonas landed violently on ice, making his leg break. After the memory, at home, he still felt his leg sore for such pain the memory involved. Jonas had returned once more to the training even if he didn’t want to and saw the Giver with a sad look on his face. The Giver told him to retrieve the memory he was having, and then that was how he learned about the memory or warfare, which disgusted Jonas. That evening when Jonas was walking back home, he noticed Asher and all of Jonas´ friends where playing. They had all making what happened to be the sound of gunshots and men falling down. Jonas was invited to play, but he simply stood in the middle, in shock, remembering the warfare memory he had retrieved. He ignored all that happened at that time and he just remembered, Asher was upset of how Jonas had ruined the game for him. In desperate frustration, Jonas tried to explain his friends how is it wrong, the problem is, none of Jonas’ friends can see beyond.
