The story The Beast by Walter Dean Myers ends with a happy ending. They story ends only telling the future of Gabi and Spoon. The Beast lives on in the past of its victims and is a temptation for the weak. The strong can live with the burden in them and act as if it doesn’t affect them at all. Gabi in this case seems to be healing and with the help of Spoon. She is willing to go on in her life. She has gotten a job and is has started going to get help to get over her drug problem. If she was weak then she would have fallen back to The Beast during the time Spoon was away. Monica is a good example of what The Beast can do to the weak. She had no support and was weak on the inside so she still has not given up drugs and cannot face reality. Only those who are strong can use the challenges faced in life to bring a better future.
