The Unexpected Killer

Al was at the top of his class full of hope and dreams. He wasn’t destined for any tragedies or so it seamed.
Al was well-spoken, polite, courteous and neat. He was president of student government and an all around athlete.
Admired by many, he was thought to be daring and bold. No one new the dark tragic fate that his future would hold.
Remember, he was a model student who never fought or uttered a curse. Here is were this story takes a tragic turn for the worse.
It was senior and it was the biggest and the best. The party offered many things, but alcohol sparked Al’s interest.
The party food was good. The music was a blast. But once the alcohol was brought out everything went to fast.
Al lost interest in the party and soon it became a bore. Al started with a beer, then two, then rum and even more.
Now here is the main point, the climax of the story. For those of you with weak stomachs this might be a little gory.
Al left the party without a sober driver because he couldn’t wait When he started the car engine so did his fate.
Al didn’t think of the effects of his deadly mistake. An especially about an 11-year-old girl whose life he was going to take.
It started with screeching tires and a sickening, horrified stare. As all watched the innocent young girl’s body being tossed into the air.
Some say she died before she hit the ground, with blood splattered all over her face. Whether she died slowly or quickly, why did it have to happen in the first place?
Hearing that story drove people angry and wild. Because in a pool of her own blood laid someone’s child.
I hope the loss of life will make a person think twice. About not driving drunk; this is such sound advice.
As for Al, his life is ruined. No more fame, praise or glory. He turned out to be an unexpected killer and so ends my story.
