Todd’s death was mapped out by the women he fell in love with, this is the biggest…

    Todd is still very young and has not yet reached adulthood, he is close but he still has a lot to learn. He was not expecting to be sent off so abruptly, but Ben and Cillian knew it was coming and Todd did not understand how they knew or why they knew. He did not want to leave on his own but ben and Cillian acted like that was the best and only option to keep Todd safe. Todd did not understand why finding the quiet hole in the swamp was such a big deal but his guardians acted like it was a life or death situation. His guardians did not give Todd any intimation of why finding the whole of silence was so bad. All they told him was that he needed to leave right away and to not think about the hole of silence.

    French visited Todd's house looking for his parents, the reader immediately knows Todd has some evil intentions because he replies to a question by French and then he "…picked up the .30-.30." Todd acted complete cool in the situation and then suddenly "He pushed the safety catch to the off position with his thumb and pointed the rifle at Rubber Ed." Todd would shoot French several times. We see the violent nature of Todd when "He shot Rubber Ed again and roughly half of his head disappeared in a spray of blood and bone." Todd was a changed boy. Once seen as the all-American kid, could now be seen as a shadow of Dussander. Todd lived and breathed off of finding as much as he could about Dussander and he would pay for his actions in the end. ""I'm king of the world!" he shouted mightily at the high blue sky, and raised the rifle two-handed over his head for a moment. Then, switching it to his right hand, he started that place above the freeway where the land fell away and where the dead tree would give him shelter. It was five hours later and almost dark before they took him…
