Everyone does certain things when they can’t have what they desire and often they are mean. Whether they mean it or not it still happens. In “The Most Dangerous Game” Zaroff can’t be the best hunter in the world with Rainsford still alive, so since he could not get what he desired Zaroff hunts and attempts to kill Rainsford. In “All Summer In A Day.” Margot can remember the sun from while on Earth, however on Mars the sun comes out only once every 7 years causing the kids not to remember and to be jealous. Resulting in the kids locking Margot in a closet before the sun comes out because they can not get what they desire, which is to see the sun everyday.

There are many types of conflict and we experience them ourselves in our own lives, but in stories what is it? “All conflict in literature is, in its simplest form, a struggle between good and evil.” - Anonymous.

If you win you can kill me if I win I’ll kill you.” When night fell Zaroff stroke out for the darkness. “I’ll give him 1 hour.” said Rainsford. So while Rainsford was waiting he had some brandy and some croissants. One hour later Rainsford got one hound and nothing else. Rainsford was going to fight this out hand to hand. Zardoff went to the exact tree that Rainsford claimed and went to sleep. Rainsford’s dog picked up the sent and took off running Rainsford right on the tail right to the tree. When Rainsford looked up the tree Zaroff was gone no were in sight. The hound couldn’t find the sent again. So Rainsford killed the hound because it looked like Zaroff.

How could an innocent game lead to a future of unwanted consequences? No one expects the worst until it finally occurs to them. My little sister is quite competitive when it comes to winning.
