**__Russel and Piper discriptions__**
Russel is one of John McNab's little brothers, he is Pipers brother as well. Russel thinks that there are cops that look like kids, and he says thats how they ceatch kids.Russel is scared of John, when Maniac returns to Two Mills with Johns brothers and John McNab sees them. Russel doesn't have a very clean house, he has cockroaches crawling around in his house, and paint falling off the walls if they rubbed their finger on it. Russel wants to set out on a journey with Piper to Mexico, and leave Two Mills.

Piper seems like the kind of brother that agrees with everything that his brother Russel says. For evample, when Russel says that the guns should be real he just agrees with Russel. When Maniac asks who the enemy was that they were supposed to be shoothing Piper let Russel answer and Piper just went along with it. When Piper and Russel figure out that little Maniac Magee blasted there brothers fastballs they laugh on the sidewalk for five minutes. Piper also seems very gulible, because when Jhon got steamed Maniac told a lie that after Maniac hit all of McNabs fastballs that McNab through stopballs and Maniac missed them all. They believed that John could through this ball and didn't laugh anymore.
