Ender, who is still 6, has been transferred from his launchy group. The launchies are the new, young kids in the Battle School. He has been transferred to the Salamander army. Ender finds a new enemy, Bonzo, who despises Ender. Now, they have started to have simulated battles. In these battles, the "armies" wear flash suits, which freeze once you get shot. Even though Ender doesn't like Bonzo, Bonzo is still his commander, so Ender has to follow every order that he gives. So Bonzo ordered Ender to stay out of their way, so Ender has to watch the battle from far away. He doesn't like the way that Bonzo is leading them, and Ender knows he can do it better than Bonzo. A text to world connection is that in the military, even if you don't agree with an order, you still have to follow it. A text to self connection is that when my parents tell me to do something I don't like, I still have to do it anyway. A text to text connection is from the book, I Pledge Alleigence, the main character is a soldier, and he has to follow commands from people with higher authority.
