I know I tempted at this before.. But this time I am NOT quitting on myself.


Joining the American revolution of 1776.

Benjamin Martin, a veteran of the French and Indian war is still not yet involved in the warfare against England.

Partically due to his wife being dead, and it's up to him alone to take care of his seven childrun.

Benjamin himself was found in a barn, trying to make a rocking chair, he finally seemed to have one, but it broke.

Benjamin lost his temper and threw it away in anger, revealing twenty other failed tries also, but when he saw one of his small childrun watching, he calmed himself down, probably not wanting to scare anyone.

Benjamn was later shown at his wife's tombstone giving flowers towards it.


MUCH LATER!


It was now the fairly late at night.

Everyone was asleep except for Benjamin and his eldest son Gabrial who's 18, and his second oldest son Thomas who's 14.

They were both anxiously for their father so they could open the mail.

"So, what came in the mail?" Benjamn asked after a brief silence.

Thomas and Gabrial ran over to the table they left the mail on.

Whie running back though, Thomas tripped and fell, and a unaware Gabrial tripped over Thomas's body, Benjamin looked away from the paper he was reading after hearing the noise, and they both bulted back up before his face turned to their direction, making him belief nothing happened.

Gabrial opened a letter that showed a list of new recruits.

"Hey check it out Dave Gibson joined" Gabrial said.

"Haha. Gibson.. What a stupid made up last name" Benjamin laughed.

"Also there's.. Peter Cupton.. He's seventeen, a year younger than I" Gabrial said seeming sad.

"We should attend the meeting.. It has been removed to-

"Charlettown! We're going to Charlettown!" Thomas cried excitedly.

"No, we're going to-

"Everyone! Were going to Charletown!" Thomas cried excitedly, running up the stairs, making everyone cheer in joy.

"Great, now we HAVE to go" Benjamin groaned annoyedly.

"Why don't I just take them" Gabrial suggested.

"Ya, why don't you SHUT UP!" Benjamin cried childishly.


The next morning the family arrived in Charelottown.

"Aunt Charrlete!" Most the kids cried excitedly.

"Childrun!" Aunt Charrlete cried happily.

"It's so good to see-

Suddenly there was a deafing loud noise.

Everyone looked over to see Benjamin holding a pistol in the air, with smoke coming from it, meaning it's just been fired.

"Greetings" Benjamin said, putting his pistol away.

"H Hi Ben" Charrlete said nervously.

"Why did you fire your gun?" Benjamin son Nathan asked.

"It's how he introduces himself" Gabrial annoyedly answered for Benjamin.
