Interview With a Friend

“You shall never escape my lair for you have already seen too much, instead you shall die here and people will never know where you went”, his deep laugh resonated as the man spoke. Before I or my Dad could react the man grabbed a electric gun aiming it at my father. “No!”, I screamed as the bolts of electricity passed into my fathers body. My father collapsed in a shallow heap on the floor not moving. The man rejoicing in his victory laughed again yet this time I decerned a fuzzy sound, like that off a speaker, coming out of the mans voice.

I played with my friends for hours on end putting no thought into what I was doing, until my dad was watching from the couch as I used a twelve gauge shotgun to blow a virtual players legs off or ordered attack dogs to hunt down and tear people apart. He was shocked that a company could get away with producing and selling a game like that. My dad, being a retired combat medic from the Vietnam War, sat me down after seeing that and said “Alex, war is not something that can be glorified and should not be taken lightly”. After talking with me I knew that even though I and my friends were enjoying ourselves shooting each other online, there is more to war than pure violence and destruction.

So in order to escape his dreary position, Huck eventually hatches a plan to escape the cabin. By faking his death, Huck is able to escape his father and overcome the first trial which would mark the beginning of his journey on the M... ... middle of paper ... ...made-up family Huck had made. The situation eventually escalates when one of the men think that Huck’s made-up father has the smallpox even though Huck never specified what kind of problem he had.

the guards were going to throw Elie's father out but Elie said, "I threw myself on top of his body, he was cold. I slapped him. I rubbed his hands crying: Father! Father! Wake up!

When my father was mad at any one of us, it seemed like the end of the world. Nothing was worse than my father completely ignoring me. When I was little, I went with my father and brother to the toy store. My dad bought my brother a toy, and for the first time ever, I got mad and jealous at him.

Then the police came to see about a scream that was reported earlier. The man led them through the house, claiming that the old man was out of town for a while. He finally sat down in the exact spot where the old man had been buried under the floorboards. What eventually made the man confess to what he had done when he imagined that he heard the old man's heart beating from under the floorboards.
