After

Right after, Smalls tried to be the hero that went to get the ball, but was stopped quickly by all the other boys, and they told him the story about "The Beast". Smalls, not beliving it, looked over the fence and saw the beast. The boys all worked together a plan in order to get the ball, ando so they waited for the beast to fall asleep. Once the beast fell asleep, they attempted to retrieve the ball.
