I think Katie was right to run back and hide in the trunk because she didn’t want the rebels to come in her house and steal her belongings. A quote from the story that shows risk and reward is, “When the rebels were going through the trunk, John Warren touched Katie and caused a distraction to the rebels to leave so they wouldn’t harm Katie. That shows risk and reward because she took a risk by staying in the house when she could have gotten hurt, and her reward was that the rebels left without hurting her.

I Think it was right to go back to the house because she what’d to protected he stuff and all the memory’s and has grown up in that house. Another think is that she loved that trunk and she could have died if another guy would have touched her. I think that the guys took some of the stuff and they thought that the father had money and I think the father took the money. Here’s a quote from page: 301’’The rustlings drowned their words, another dress went, and a hand touched me. I wanted to bite it, to make him jump and shout but I stilled myself. Maybe he didn’t know. Suddenly, he shouted,’ Out! The tories are coming. Back to the road! Hurry! He did not close the lid, and footsteps sounded out the door. Here’s another quote from page 303, He’s left one seam of goodness there, and we were all tied to it: Papa, Mama, Walter, Hattie and me.
