The Giver Alternate Ending

Authors Note: This is a piece that I would like graded in prediction.

The heavy snow fell from all directions. Jonas dragged his feet though the thick piles of it on the ground as he carried Gabriel. They both shivered uncontrollably to the point where the memory of sunshine could not help them anymore.  More and more snow fell, making it harder and harder for Jonas and Gabriel.

Suddenly, Jonas tripped and both of them landed in the cold snow. Jonas rushed to Gabriel, hoping to keep him from getting any colder. When Jonas picked up Gabriel, he noticed he was not shivering anymore and his body had become limp. Jonas knew that Gabriel had froze to death.

Tears ran down his numb face as he laid back in the snow, not able to feel anything anymore. He had been unable to keep Gabriel from dying. Jonas let himself get colder and colder, knowing he was going to share the same fate.

He started to feel tired, but he knew that it was actually death that was coming. Closing his eyes, he waited for his death. As his shivering stopped, his body went limp, and he died just like Gabriel.
