The Evil Ant King (pt. 3)

The ant army was exhilarated by the evil ant king's speech. He was able to coerce every ant to fight harder than ever with the power of the evil spirit. The king was determined to not let his adversaries win this war. It has only been a year into the war and some of the blunders the humans have made led to the demise of the leader of the humans. The new leader wanted to redress the loss by taking punitive measures against the ants. His plan was to search the source of the ants and unleash a nuclear arsenal. This would alienate the leader underground from the army on the surface. After separating the surface army from their leader, the humans needed a way to suppress the ants' anger. The humans realized that since ants love taking their food at picnics, they could put their culinary skills to use to make a deal with the remaining ants. This artifice was sure to work, and it would set the precedent of what to do in case this were to happen again.

The Evil Ant King (cont.)

The war between the belligerent ants and the amicable humans is the bloodiest war the earth has ever seen. Leading the humans in the war is the United States, who is the most able to scrutinize the motives of the ants. They found that the ants have a meticulous plan to conquer the world. The plan is to utilize the ants' adroit abilities in carrying heavy weapons instill a holocaust upon the humans. The ants would carry flamethrowers and cursorily try to obliterate the humans. This was their biggest blunder. Because of this, some of the humans that carried heavy armor (called juggernauts) were impervious to the flames of the ants. These juggernauts put up a good fight, causing many ant forces to retrogress. The evil king of ants saw this and using the powers he obtained from the evil spirit, he speaks to the entire ant population through telepathic communication, sending an impetus through the hearts of all of the warriors. With fire in their hearts and in their hands, the war goes on.

The Ant Kingdom

While humans lived their opulent lifestyle on the surface, deep down in the earth lived a kingdom of ants. These were not the normal ants. They were ruled by Anthony, an ant king adulterated by an evil spirit. He had no power until the evil spirit entered him, augmenting his capabilities to rule all ants. Now powerful, the insidious king gave no intimation of his intentions. He instantly took all currency and made it his own, leaving the citizen ants bereft. Even after seeing the effects his actions were taking, he stood stolid by his plans. His ultimate plan was to rule the humans, so he put an army together, their will pliable by the king's power. Though the soldiers were outsized, their fortitude remained. It was only a short time after deploying the soldiers that the evil ant king ruled the entire world.

First essay: Tell me about a person or event that made an impact in your life and influenced who you are today.


I have been blessed to have the opportunities I've had to go to events that impact my life and influence who I am today.  The one that stands out from them all was my favorite; Buckeye Boys State. Not only did I grow intellectually, but I grew personally. I learned about Ohio's state government and also about the way I interact around strangers.
The smartest young men from every corner of Ohio are selected to go to Bowling Green University for a week in the summer and run a mock state government. I felt honored to be nominated and accepted for such a enriching opportunity. Spending a week with highly intellectual, motivated students helped me push my work ethic to the next level because we competed for positions in the state government. Once I arrived at Bowling Green and met the students with whom I would share the same floor, or “city,” for the next week, I immediately felt at home. No, it was not just because of the people or the campus, but rather just the idea and feeling of college life. That week was my first taste of what it must mean to be a college student.
During the first few days, the counselors helped us organize by political party. I was a Federalist determined to beat my Nationalist counterpart for a spot in the state senate. I campaigned harder than I ever thought I could, putting ads all over the campus. After the elections, the whole program was student run. We got up early every morning, ate breakfast, went to work, ate lunch, and went back to work until three. Then we had the rest of the day to do whatever we wanted around campus.
For me, most of that free time was spent bonding with the guys on my floor. We would gather in someone’s dorm and talk about life at home, joke around, play pranks, and even show each other pictures of our girlfriends. At home, I never really bonded well with other guys. Most of my friends were girls until that week. The experience and acceptance let me know that I am able to make those kinds of friends. I still feel close to them, even though we have all been apart for a half of a year. I can tell these friendships are going to last a lifetime.
