I rushed up the ladder and stood on the castle wall. I gasped and my eyes couldn’t believe it. I had my hand on the wall and the roar of the enormous monster greeted me.

Just so you know, this is the Big Apple and I rule this town. New York City is filled with tall buildings, great culture, and historical sites. No other city has so much beauty that it takes your breath away; yet, there is a real danger that lurks on the streets. I should know because I am Detective Michael Morgan a United States Super Spy in charge of capturing dastardly villains who are set on destroying our world. Armed with mind-altering powers, Alex Higgins is on the top of the FBI’s list of the ten most wanted men in America. This thug is one of the greatest danger to our world and must be captured and jailed in the vault of death. There is no place safe for him to hide from the law and rumor has it, he is in my town. You break the law here in New York City, you pay the ultimate price: freedom.

I was so scared to respond, and get stuffed into a locker again, so I didn’t say anything. Which obviously was not the right choice because he picked me up by the shirt collar and he exclaimed

He ignored it and keep going after a while he started to get tired and decide to setup camp he turned

If I'm in...I'll be All-In. While I'll be the first of family and friends to attend the University of Colorado, Boulder and unsure of the challenges within the campus community, I know myself. I am at my best when I fully commit.
