What role do transitions play in the story? As the Khalidis’ car pulled away from the house, loaded with the last of their
possessions, Rashi peered out the window, hoping for a glimpse of sleek black fur, but instead he saw the Hudsons’ moving van pull into the driveway.
“I know Vader’s going to show up as soon as we’re gone, and he’ll freak out,”
Rashi said.
“Naw,” replied his older brother, Akil, “he’ll find the food on the back porch, and
then the new owners will see him and call us.”
“And we’re moving to a different street, not a different state,” added their mom.
“When we walked to the new house last week, it took only about 15 minutes,
remember? You can walk back and look for Vader this afternoon.”
As he carried book-laden boxes into their new home, Rashi furrowed his brow.
He didn’t trust those Hudsons—especially their daughter, Tess. Before her family had
bought the Khalidis’ house, she’d told Rashi she was “desperate” to get a cat.
“The Hudsons could be cat burglars!” Rashi shouted across the yard to his
brother.
“No, Rashi!” yelled his brother. “Cat burglars don’t take cats—they climb through
windows to steal jewels or something!”
Just then, Rashi saw a lithe shadow dart across the street. Wait—that was no
shadow. It was Vader! The cat rushed over to Rashi’s feet. Tess Hudson was close
behind.
Rashi picked up Vader, who was purring like a motor. “Smart cat, how’d you
know where to go?”
“If you’ve walked here before, he probably followed you,” Tess reasoned, “and
then today he remembered the way. I followed him to make sure he was safe.”
“Thanks,” Rashi said.
“No, the truth is, I was chasing him because I’m a cat burglar, as you know.”
Then, much to Rashi’s relief, Tess smirked.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
