Years
ago I was playing army with my cousin. We were fighting in a jungle of
a Pacific Island in my backyard. We had been overrun by Japanese
soldiers. I thought we were all going to come out alive when I heard
Eric cry out.
"SARGE- THEY GOT ME!" Keeping my head down, I made my way over to where he had fallen. Eric looked up with his 13 year old round face distorted with agony. It was quite a death scene. Like always, whenever Eric died, he'd go into one of those patriotic, American pie speeches with a "tell my girl I love her" toward the end.
I stood up, pulled out my 45 cap pistol and put a period halfway through his sentence.
