English Mr. Hunter

Coursework

When I walked in the battered old lady gently closed the door. Immediately she told me to follow her. Whilst walking, a wind wiped my face. It was colder than a winter breeze. She told me to keep up, so I started to walk a little faster. We were now walking down a corridor that had portraits and fancy chandeliers hanging from the crystal ceiling.

When we reached the boss Delancy’s door, she told me to sit down. I heard whispering coming from the door. I got up and gently put my head towards the door. I couldn’t hear much but, I heard them say to remember the plan. I sat back down, curious about what was about to happen. Five minutes went by and the lady came out with a smirk on her face. She told me that Mr. Delancy was ready for me. I got up and went in remembering what I came here to do.

As soon as I entered the room the door shut behind me with a bang. Two men were standing behind me, faces filled with anger, just staring at me. Mr. Delancy told me to sit down but I refused so his men took a step closer to me. He asked me again and I said no again. This time instead of taking a step closer they started to rush me. At that moment my heart started beating faster than a pregnant woman at birth. One of the men attempted to grab me and I struggled to get him off of me. As soon as he touched the ground I pulled my pistol from my waist and killed both of the men.

Delancy, by the way, didn’t move a muscle. I told Delancy that I had a proposal for him and it was that I wanted to join his cocaine business and make some real money. First Delancy laughed at my request, than while he was laughing I gave him some sarcastic advice. I said that if I were him I wouldn’t say no to a man with a gun in his hand. So he said that he would give me a chance and see how it would go but for now to go home and get some rest.

Next day for some reason I woke up at about 7:13. As soon as I was fully awakened I got ready then I made my way to Delancy’s mansion. When I reached the house he was awake also so he said since we were both awake that we could go and buy my suit now. After we spent like 2 hours on buying my outfit then he started to show me the ropes on how to run a drug business. First he showed me one of his warehouses. The more he showed me and told me I came to understand that in this business you had to be as hard as a bull and as swift as a cheetah after about two weeks went by and now I was actually carrying out orders.

I was at one of the spots waiting on my customer when Delancy rang my phone. I answered; He told me to forget about the delivery and that he wanted to talk to me as quick as possible. He said that he wanted to do something that would make me rich and him richer. I got into the car happier than Larry. I raced to Delancy’s house curious about what I had to do. When I got there he rushed me and said that all I have to do is take this bag to this address and the man will exchange it for five or six bags to bring back. He told me to do that now.

So I turned around and attempted to leave. Suddenly Delancy grabbed my arm and told me in a serious voice not to open the bag under any circumstances. I left and started my journey to my destination. For the first 30 minutes in the car I just kept looking at the bag, wondering what was in it. After a while my curiosity took over. I unzipped the bag, and straight away I wished I hadn’t. What had I got myself into?
