Joe's Death: A Narrative Fiction

“No, there was a tattoo of a cross on that hand” Hector sighed, his energy deflating.

“Joe's Reward” is a story that is looked to be as great story holding heroic actions, lessons to be shared, and a bit of laughter. Although, it might seem odd you king find through the seams of the story the elements of what you would find in a Myth. A Myth is story of an unknown author that people long ago, told to solve serious questions about how important things began or occurred. Myths were also used to explain creations or teach a lesson. A myth element that is shown periodically all throughout the story is about teaching a lesson.

“You can curse the dead or pray for them, but don’t expect them to do a thing for you. They’re far too interested in watching us, to see what heaven’s name we will do next.”

Joe Flynn is just like any other twelve-year-old his age, except for one thing. Joe has witnessed a murder. The only thing is; no one believes him. Not his mother, and certainly not the detective assigned to the “alleged” case. At least not until dead bodies start popping up.

Scott was... done. Just done. He supposed Mitch noticed the difference over the last few days, but he really couldn't care. He killed... no, helped kill Alex. He tossed his body out of the window and pulled off all his fingernails. He even held the poor bastard's mouth open as Mitch ripped out all of his teeth. Scott released a bitter laugh and lowered his head, avoiding his reflection with an even more bitter grin. He assisted in a murder.

This week has been one of hardest weeks I have had to endure since the break of Jeffery and I. I have not been able to focus on absolutely anything. My children do not notice that I am going through this pain, at least I don’t think that they have noticed. I am in church praying and hoping that God will make a way for me soon, but as of right now, I am wearing an artificial smile on my face to hind the grief I am subdued to everyday.

For this visual narrative, I decided to ask a man who lived down our street his life story. The story line follows his life from being a small child in Scotland to being a 73 year old man that lives in Canberra. I chose to interview and portray Joes life story because i found that his story of being a poor child who had nothing who worked his butt of the better the lives of himself and others quite compelling. But the one thing that I find most compelling is how the army and war have had such a dramatic impact upon his life. This can be seen when his father is killed by the Germans during WW2, being born in an air raid, fighting for Australia in Vietnam and even his Antartic voyages to conduct research on the area. I aim to show

Traditionally, women have been known as the less dominant sex. They have been stereotyped as being only housewives and bearers of the children. Many interesting characters in literature are conceived from the tension women have faced with men. This tension is derived from men; society, in general; and within a woman herself. Kate Chopin‘s short story, “The Story of an Hour”, focus on a woman’s dilemma near the turn of the 19th century. Contradicting the “normal” or sad assumption of death, “The Story of an Hour” illustrates the significance of death representing freedom. The Story narrates about an hour of Louise Mallard’s life, as she tries to understand, and deal with her feelings of her husbands death.

In Johnny’s defense I think the death of Bob wasn't on purpose. Johnny was just defending his good friend Ponyboy Curtis. Ponyboy was almost going to drown to death if it wasn't for Johnny. My thought is that Johnny killed Bob off his reaction like Johnny didn't know what to do!

The most serious offence Joe could be charged with is murder. Murder is the “unlawful killing of a human being under the Queen’s Peace with malice afterthought to kill or to cause grievous bodily harm”. Murder is committed by an act or omission. In this case its an omission. An omission occurs when the defendant had a duty to act and breached that duty. This breach must be the cause of death. The actus reus for murder is the unlawful killing of another person in the Queen’s peace and It must be satisfied that the defendant’s act or omission caused the death of the victim. Karla is not a foetus, she was not killed in a cause of self- defence nor during a time of war. In Miller, the court held that “conduct which consists of failing

Hannah had a focused look as she explained her theory. “As a child, it is said that Edgar played with the 'little folk' and was alleged to have seen his deceased grandfather. He regarded them all as incorporeal because he could see through them if he looked hard enough. One day he said he heard the voice. He did reveal at the age of 10, while in his hut in the woods, he saw a woman with wings who told him that his prayers were answered. He was given something by this being he said, but he never told anyone what it was, Don’t you see, he was given the talisman?” Hannah said passionately.
