Difference Doesn't Matter

Authors Note: I am comparing Matthew F. And Pedro, because they are very different in small ways but also are the same in the biggest way of all.

In the book Evil Star Matthew Freeman and Pedro, a poor peruvian boy, have had their lives changed forever whether they like it or not. They are both one of the five, together they are two of the five, fighting to keep the ancient ones from coming into their world. For them to fight together is very hard because of how different they are. There really can’t be many ways they are alike.

Pedro, a very poor beggar who lives in Peru. He has known all his life that he was one of the five . Matt knew he was different but he never knew he was a part of something so big, like saving the world or that he could use his mind as a force instead of nothing. Pedro’s native language is spanish and this makes it hard to him and Matthew to understand each other.

Matthew is very special and has powers that could be described as telekinesis, but is very powerful. In the first book Ravens Gate Matthew runs down a hallway and pushes steal, locked doors out of his way with just his mind. This is one of the big differences in between Matt and Pedro. Matt is an english boy from England and never had any money problems, but did have family problems. Pedro has had both money and family problems. Even with all these small differences they are more alike than they realize.

Pedro and Matt are stuck with each other now they are both one of the five. These five kids are gatekeepers. Their only job is to make sure that the gates do not open. Matt and Pedro are able to communicate in their sleep, but even though Matt hears Pedro talking english. Pedro hears Matt talking in spanish. These are two kids that didn’t meet by happening, they were supposed to meet. They think that they are different when are not.
