this is the opening, the story of a man, a man who got his wii:
(spoiler: migets and knives)
went to Best Buy the morning of Sunday the 19th. Me and me friend got their extremely early but their was already what I would call a primitive society formed at the entrance. As we pulled into the lot, many eyes darted to our car. We got out, and fortunately the number giving was just starting. An employee clad in a generic uniform annouced there would only be 24 Wiis avalible. My heart stopped as the line seemed never to end, the numbers went higher and higher and there were still more unwashed hooligans in Yoshi suits standing in front of me. Luckily, my friend got 23 and I got 24. I was so happy I almost danced. But then I thought about the people behind me who wouldn't get one. I felt eyes searing a hole into my backside, and I spun around. It was a midget. He looked up at me with eyes full of hate and malice. But there was sadness in there... I felt bad but before I could say anything the stampede began.
Everyone ran into the store as the massive doors opened slowly. My friend was lost in the rush and I was knocked into the store. I got up and the line was already forming. My friend had saved a space for me so I snuck into line. I was so happy I was going to get my Wii. Then as the counter grew nearer, I noticed a rack of games on the side. I went to go get our games. As I stacked up Zelda and Monkey Ball I felt a disturbing prescence looming near. It was him.
"It should be mine." I heard him say in a squeaky voice. He looked straight up and me and the pressure was unbearable. My fiend called me over and I had an excuse to leave. I hurried over to the counter and got my Wii, and my friend got his. My friend went out to the car but I foolishly went to check for another Wiimote. I was searching the aisles when I felt that prescence I knew too well. He was there, and I was trapped. Sweat trickled down my forehead as I thought over my options. With the Wii in hand, I was slow, too slow, he would outrun me.
"It's mine and you know it." He screeched and I felt faint. He took tiny paces closer and I stepped backwards. He pulled out a knife. Oh **** I thought right away. I couldn't give up my Wii, not after all that work. He held the knife to my chest and I had to give the Wii over. Then, I pushed him over and ran for it. He defied the laws of nature somehow and jumped after me. I felt hands grip my shirt and I was brought down.
"Why are you doing this?!?" I yelled.
"You stole my Wii. All this waiting and you stole it. Give it to me."
"But why?"
"WHY!? It's my only pleasure in life. You don't know how it is... YOU DON'T KNOW!" There was real sadness in his eyes. Tears were soon to come. I understood him perfectly in one glance. There are times people have chances to do good deeds, and this was one. I had to do it, despite everything. I handed over, with all the games. His face lit up like a flashlight and he sobbed thank you. I smiled and patted him on the back. He grabbed the box and grinned. Then I knocked him out with a jumbo pack of batteries and ran the whole way home.
