Extra Credit Freewrite

Once upon a time, there was a little boy who always got picked on in elementary school. His name was James and he always wanted to stand up for himself but never had to courage to stick up to the older kids. One day when they pushed him too far by mocking him for being adopted, he socked the "leader" of the bullies and started pounding his fists into the kid's bruised face. They became all frightened all of a sudden from the change of personality that took hold of James. The group of bullies avoided James from that moment on knowing that he is a ticking time bomb.

James realized that if he stood up for himself and his rights, then he could scare away anybody. That philosophy kept him going his whole entire life and that is why he chose the profession of a lawyer. He wanted to get rid of all the bad people in the world by using the laws and rules. He supported the capital punishment and if any criminal committed a crime terrible enough that they must be killed according to the law, then they must be executed. James was a lawyer that dealt with criminals and murderers who infect the community.

One day, he had to support the people convicting a drug lord who shot and killed 2 cops. James hated murderers and argued that the drug lord and all of his men to be executed for their plague on the city. After a series of debates, the jury obviously decided that the drug lord and certain men under him should be executed as soon as possible. When everybody was excused from the court, the future dead men were going to be transported from the courthouse to jail and they were going to be killed in the electric chair. James was proud that he was able to convince the judge and jury that most of the men should be killed as soon as possible.

Back at jail, the drug lord was discussing with his fellow inmates how he was going to get back at that "bitchy" lawyer and his "false" accusations. The drug lord never realized the terrors he caused the city with his drugs and shootings because he was in major denial of his actions. The prison was also a professional escape artist and noticed many flaws in the jailhouse that could help his attempt in escaping. The night before his execution, the drug lord escaped his cell with the help of an old friend, or one of the jail guards. When the drug lord was free, he contacted a "guy" and found out who and where James lived. With a silenced pistol and a new suit of clothes, he was ready to take care of that lawyer.

James lived in a little apartment and was going to make a down payment on a house as soon as he gets a little more money. His apartment was in a safe neighborhood, but it still could be dangerous at times. The night before the execution of the drug lord and his fellow henchmen, James felt relaxed and did not have a care in the world, until he started to eat dinner. He heard several loud thumps on the door and when he was about to answer the door, he was knocked back by the door. It got kicked down by the one and only drug lord who was sentenced death in the electric chair. James was surprised and practically stunned to see him at his apartment door.
James asked in a trembling voice, " What in the world are YOU doing here?! I thought you were in prison. I thought you were practically dead!!"
He replied with a quick and painless answer, "You thought wrong." And shot James in the head while holding a murderous face the whole time. It doesn't matter if he killed a hundred people that night, he was still going to executed...when he gets caught.
