At the shelter I picked out a half-shepherd half-chow. Black coat with a brown mane. She looked like she had lion blood. I named her Flame. She died when I was twelve. Tumors no one knew were there until it was too late. The day Flame died was the day I stopped believing in God. It was also the day I became obsessed with finding something new to believe in.</p>
