Setting: police station
Detail: A taxidermied panther
Person: A boy who uses 1990s looking computer program
He woke up in a police station, scared, nervous, and confused. But that wasn’t important now. The only thing that mattered was how he ended up in the cell and how he was going to convince the police that he wasn’t a criminal. The boy was a complete loser. He used Windows 95, didn’t keep up with the times, and didn’t improve his technological systems. However, he didn’t care at all. Instead, he dubbed himself the Captain Awesome, and at night he sported a superhero costume and prowled the streets looking for criminals who were conveniently smaller and dumber than him to take down. This was uncommon, but oh well. However, one night everything turned completely upside down. He was chasing a common local criminal after he heard of a house robbery of Sir Charles, the richest man in the city. The stolen artifact was a priceless taxidermied panther. He chased the robber through dark, sketchy alleys of the city. Then the robber tried to make a break for it. He climbed up a fire escape on an old abandoned warehouse. Captain Awesome lost sight of the robber as the he swung over the edge of the top of the building on the roof. As Captain Awesome lifted himself over the edge of the roof, fear struck him cold. Before he had even a second to react, the panther was thrown at him full speed, knocking him off the edge of the building with the dead animal. He lay there motionless with the taxidermied panther by his side. He woke up in a police station, scared, nervous, and confused. The robber was gone and the men in the offices were discussing his fate. “What a Loser.” “He aint gonna last one night in the house. He’s screwed.” “Idiot. He freakin stole a panther. What the hell’s he gonna do with it anyway.” He sat there motionless and powerless of his destiny. He was no longer Captain Awesome. He didn’t care about his identity anymore or what happened; he just wanted his 95 computer. Stupid Panther. If only Commander Keen were here to save him…

ReplyDeleteI like your story and I thought this assignment was very easy to write about. While I was reading this I kept thinking about Batman.
