The New Call of Duty

So there is this "New Call of Duty" game coming out either 10/9/11 or 11/9/10 called Call of Duty Black Ops. It is not made by Infinity Ward like the Modern Warfare's. It is made by the people that made World at War and I think Call of Duty 2 Big Red One (not sure) they also may have made the other earlier Call of Duty's. This will be there first time making a Modern Call of Duty. Supposedly they are bringing back the zombie mode from Call of Duty WaW. I am not sure if I want to get this game or not. It sounds cool and the Campaign looks crazy, so I am tempted but I don't know.

Creative Story from a LONG Time Ago.

Remember when we were in writing circles and we made creative writing storys? Well this is the begining and I might continiue. Post a comment stating if you want to me finish it or not. Here is the begining.

You wake up to sirens and flashing red lights. There is gun fire and shouting and yelling in the distance. You hear explosions to your left and right. There is something happening to Base 48. Joe your best friend busts through the door, “Get up”! He yells at you. About a minute later your are dressed and ready to go. You step out of your room, do you go left or right?

Spring Break

Today was Friday, the day before Spring Break. My best friend is going to Indiana for the weekend and I am going to Clintonville for Easter because my aunt and uncle live there. It is now the week and my friend and I are planning to hang out the whole time. The first couple days were rainy and bad but it got warmer towards the end. Saturday came and the night before my friend and I stayed up until 3 in the morning. My parents woke me up at 8 in the morning to drive up to Fond Du Lac to look at a new Jeep that my Dad wanted to purchase. We ended up coming home with this used 2007 silver 4-door Wrangler Rubicon(the highest class of Wrangler). Sunday came, the last day of Spring Break and my friend and I when on a big bike ride to the Wal-Mart in Pewaukee, the Menards, and McDonalds.

Creative Writing Challenge: "But...but I thought you were dead!"

“But…But I thought you were dead!” said Derek as I pointed the 9mm pistol at his forehead.
“Good bye Derek, you were always the weak one.” BANG. Derek’s limp body slid to the floor. I turned around to see the door opening. I fired, not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 shots into the door and heard screaming on the other side. There was a ladder to my left and a back exit to my right. “What to do, what to do?” “Back door.”I opened the door and parked possible for an escape route was Derek’s brand new Ferrari 458 Italia. Just as I started to walk down the steps to get to ground level I heard a guard shout stop and started to fire at me. I turned around looked down the sights of my pistol until I could see his head. Bang, Bang, click. “Dang I am out of ammo.” I ran up to the guard and took his G36 which is a fully automatic assault rifle. I quickly ran to the car and got in. “Wow Derek is stupid, left the keys in his brand new car. I floored it making the tires squeal down the road. Once I got on the freeway I hit about 160 mph.

10 Minutes Later

Me: Boss you there?
Boss: Yeah I am here.
Boss: Oh, hey how is it going?
Me: Okay I guess, you?
Boss: Fine thanks.
Me: I found a perfect vantage point of the airfield.
Boss: Great, hate to ask but how are you recovering from the “accident” with Derek?
Me: You mean the one where he tried to burn me alive or the one where he shot and killed my whole family?
Boss: Oh, umm both?
Me: I am fine I guess. I took care of it though.
Boss: How did that go?
Me: Well let’s just say it involved him up against the wall defenseless and me with a 9mm pistol in his face and I “accidentally” pulled the trigger. Oops.
Boss: HAHA. Well I am glad you took care of him in such a mature mater.
Me: Well I am going to go and get the Barret 50cal sniper rifle from the shed in Delafield.
Boss: Alright I will talk to you later.
Me: Bye.

About 20 Minutes Later

Me: Alright I am in position with an amazing view of the airfield.
Boss: Good.

Boss: Great he should be in the second vehicle.
Me: What the big limo.
Boss: Yeah.
Me: The have parked and they are meeting with a grey van.
Me: The driver and passenger or getting out of the van.
Me: The target and his body guard are getting out of the limo and walking up to the driver and passenger of the van.
Me: They have opened the back of the van and to the looks of it there are about 2-3 million dollars in firearms.
Me: I have a perfect shot. Should I take it.
Me: I repeat, should I take it.

Click(the sound of the mystery man pulling back the hammer of his pistol).

You are the 13th child born into a very poor family. Your father is searching for a godfather. He finds one and his name is Death. He said that he treats everyone equally and that he would make this child very rich. This is from a story called “Godfather Death”. “Godfather Death” is a tragedy and the ending with the cave of candles has a purpose worth explaining.

The tragedy plotline of “Godfather Death” starts out with the world being in chaos. Rise to power is when the father finds a godfather and the child becomes a rich doctor. The tragic flaw would be when the doctor uses the herb on someone he should not have. Tragic fall is when the doctor uses the herb again on a person he should not have and Death brought him down to an underground cave filled with candles. The death symbolism or loss of sanity ending is when the doctor dies because Death knocked his candle over and it went out.

The cave in the end of “Godfather Death” is filled with candles. Each and every candle represents a person’s life. A tall candle is for young children, a medium size is for adults, and the shorter candles are for older people. The doctor asked Death what his candle was like and Death pointed to his candle. It was a small candle because he was going to die. When the light goes out they die. Death is the controller of the candles and if something happens like if he knocks one over that person dies.

In conclusion, “Godfather Death” is a tragedy story and the cave of candles has a purpose worth explaining. Death is in control of the cave and decides whether who lives and who dies. Death is the grim reaper, the skeleton with the black robe.

Dead Men's Path

You are the headmaster of a school and a man is coming next week to inspect the school. You have beautiful flowers all around the campus. You are completely ready for this visit... except for the path that leads to the graveyard on the other side of the school. This is from a story called "Dead Men’s Path". The plotline in this story is a tragedy and the title means something important.

The plotline in "Dead Men’s Path" is a tragedy and has a big part. The plotline of the story and the plotline of a tragedy are the same. First it starts with a minor conflict, in the story it starts out with Obi being the headmaster and his wife being mad that all of the teachers did not have wives. The second thing is the rise to power, the rise to power in the story is when they grow all of the flowers and the school looks spectacular. Third is the tragic flaw, the tragic flaw is when Obi closes the path to the graveyard. Fourth is the tragic fall which is when someone dies and they need to get through that path. The people break through the barricade and rip up the flowers making the campus a disaster. Fifth and last is the death symbolism and that is when the man comes to inspect the school and the campus was a mess.

The title "Dead Men’s Path" has an important meaning that has to do with the book. The path in the title resembles the path in the campus. Because it is called Dead Men’s Path it means that the path in the campus in the Dead Men’s Path. It leads people to loved ones graves. If you close the path bad things will happen because of the campus situation where all of the flowers were destroyed. The people in the town relies on this path because of their dead relatives.

In conclusion, "Dead Men’s Path" had a very well developed and informational title and has a plotline of a tragedy. I think that Obi was being very selfish because he would not let the villagers go through the path to visit their dead relatives. Obi deserved what he got and I do not think that the towns people should have done anything different.

A Clean Well Lighted Place

You are sitting at a bar at about two in the morning. There is an old deaf man that wants more drinks. There are two waiters, a younger one and an older one. This is from a story called “A Clean Well Lighted Place”. The story “A Clean Well Lighted Place” has two characters that are waiters who have alot of symbolism.

“A Clean Well Lighted Place” has a character that is an old waiter and has a big part. The old waiter resembles a light place for nighttime people just like him. He cannot sleep at night he has to sleep in the day. He gets mad at the young waiter because he wants to stay with the old man and give him company. The old waiter is the light and shelter for people like the old deaf man. He is a very kind and caring man and he resembles a light place.

Even though the old waiter has a big part, the young waiter has a big part too. The young waiter is very selfish and just wants to go home and get a good night’s sleep. He wants the old man to get out and go home. When the old man stays to long, the young waiter tends to get a bad night's sleep. When the old man wants another drink the young waiter tells him no. The young waiter does not care about anything but him self. The young waiter even told the old man that he wished he had killed himself. On page 176 the youlg waiter says "you should have just killed yourself".

In conclusion, the old waiter and the young waiter in “A Clean Well Lighted Place” are very different even though they have big parts in the story. The characters are very different. The old waiter is a lot nicer than the young waiter because he is the light for the people that don’t like the dark.
