English class that required my partner (my best friend) and I to write a forty page short story. My friend and I were both gamers and we produced an action-packed sixty page behemoth that was so violent that the teacher decided not to require the next year's class to write a short story. The story included:- A character modeled after Yoda.- Music from Tool- A battle involving a hero with a bullwhip vs. a villain with a sword during a thunderstorm- Numerous references to Magic: the Gathering- A corrupted sheriff who dies in a explosion- Pages of gun fights- An epic car chase that resulted in deadly wrecks- Carcasses being eaten by coyotes- The line "I have a bad feeling about this place. If I shout its a trap, Chris, then get an axe!"Despite all of that, the story was well written (ok, so I'm biased). We spent days writing it and almost as much time checking for spelling and grammar errors. We were so picky over it that my dad joked we thought it was going to be published. We received an A+.</blockquote>
