Jimmy Horseshoe had always been in the center of trouble. He got his first felony at the age of 5, and went to Juvenile Corrections at the age of 12. Jimmy's dad, Henry Horseshoe, gave up on Jimmy after the cops brought him home saying he was in possession of over half a pound of crystal meth that he had been selling.
Here Jimmy was, 18 years of age, sitting in the interrogation room for assault on three older boys who looked at him the wrong way.
"This is it, Jimmy," he thought. "I've already been brought to the police office 4 times this month. I'm getting sent to prison for sure."
Jimmy was no stranger to prison. He had been there several times already since he had become an adult. He was in fact, still on parole since he was recently released from prison.
However, Jimmy's dad had told him that if he was sent to prison one more time he would get thrown out of the house. His dad was sick of paying for his bail, but even more sick of Jimmy as a person.
Jimmy could always stay at his attractive friend, Lilith's house. But Lilith's parents did not like Jimmy for obvious reasons, so it would be a bit awkward asking to live there.
"You've really done it this time," said Officer Richard, who Jimmy was quite familiar with.
"Yeah, whatever," retorted Jim.
"You broke your parole," explained Richard. "You're looking at hard time."
Jimmy just rolled his eyes. "Just get on with it and tell me what my sentence will be."
"You're looking at 6 years in prison," said Rich plainly.
Jimmy couldn't help but gasp.
Six years?
That was like, 1/3 of his life!
He would be 23 when he got out.
Jimmy felt like crying but didn't want to show the officer that he was mad so he played it cool.
"Okay," Jimmy said finally holding back the tears.
"There is another option however," Officer Richard brought up suddenly.
Jimmy, who was looking down, suddenly looked up with excitement.
Another option? What could he possibly mean? Jimmy felt he was far past community service. He had already done that twice before. So what could Rich possibly be talking about?
"What do you mean?" asked Jim.
"You COULD go to prison... or..."
Richard laid a card in front of him.
Jimmy picked it up and examined it. It was a $10 Steam card.
"You could complete both the true pacifist and genocide route of Undertale."
