Twas a dark night in Las Vegas and something seemed to be wrong. I was sitting on my porch thinking about my fathers death and how my vicious mother would marry another man in one week. I was feeling a little light headed and I suddenly saw a ghost come out of my shed. It was a silhouette of my father, he started to tell me how my uncle the villain had murdered him in his studies for the company. I had to tell the officials what had happened, but wait if I tell the police officers that a ghost told me my uncle murdered my father they would think I'm crazy and would take me to an asylum. So I had to make a plan and fast. I thought for a while and decided that I would observe his movement by becoming a spy. But why did Claudius kill my father, and then I decided that he would want my dads inheritance and his millions but little did he know I would have the inheritance.

For the next couple of days I spent hours driving around the city thinking about the choices I had, I could kill myself by jumping off a building or I could get revenge on Claudius for my father. First I was going to need a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and finally a gun to protect myself. Now that I have my equipment I think I should go say hello to Ophelia, so I started my car and drove away. I reached the library Ophelia was at, something felt wrong. I walked in and there she was sitting on a bench next to a big curtain, reading a book about dinosaurs. I noticed that there was feet under the curtains and I got extremely angry, that Ophelia was letting them spy on me. Claudius knew that I was aware that he killed my father.

The next day Laretes had just arrived from his vacation to India to be told Ophelia had died by a wrecking ball. "Today is the day I get revenge on Claudius" I boasted. Hamlet decide to take action and finally take revenge for his father, So Hamlet waited for midnight to attack. It was time I put on my jet pack and flew into the mansion. Once I was in I put on my night vision goggles to see where all the guards are. I took out my gun and shot the guard on the left thankfully the other guard didn't see. Claudius was hiding in his room and all of a sudden saw me kill a guard and dashed to the alarm and pulled the lever. I decided to surrender, Claudius came down and spit on the ground in front of me. "As a punishment you will play Russian roulette with Laretes" boasted Claudius.

I was nervous, I knew that if I was the one that died than my father would be disappointed. "Before we start how about a glass of wine" said Claudius. I was nervous so I decided to take a drink to calm myself down. The drink tasted very bitter but I drank it. We started spining the gun, I was to go first, I shot there was no bullet. Now it was Laretes, all of a sudden a bullet flew through his head and he fell to the ground. I grabed the gun hoping there was a bullet and shot it twoards Claudius. The bullet flew through his chest and out the mansion. "I did it father" I said. All of a sudden I felt my heart stop, the wine was poisonous. I guess I had to know revege comes with a cost.
