A cold wind was blowing outside as the teacher had dismissed the class for outside recess. It was mid December and very chilly, as some kids played tag, or football, a lonely boy sat and watched. No one would talk to him nor would they ask him to play with them.
This boy soon grew fast and tall. Soon he became the popular guy in school because he played sports. The girls flocked to him, he had his football friends and they would talk about it 24/7. He even got accepted to college on a full paid scholarship.
He soon graduated and was off to a big name college. He was in the paper, he was the town hero. His first season he broke 3 school records. His next step was the NFL, they were hounding him to play. The Cowboys, the Jets, the Eagles and many more were looking to draft this guy.
He graduated the top of his class, got drafted into the NFL, his first game he was blindsided by another player. Laying on the field the whole world seemed to stop. He couldn't move his legs, he couldn't feel his legs, the trainers soon came out and checked a few things with him. They didn't say much, but it didn't look good.
After waking up he was giving the news he was paralyzed from the waste down, never to walk or play football again. But this wouldn't stop him. He was the boy who people picked on, he wasn't going to let this thing stop him.
It took him a few years and many ups and downs but he did it. He did it all by himself. He mumbled these words:
"I came from the playgrounds ashes. There came a little man with little dreams of planning war and new crusades."
Then he spoke these words:
"Watch as a I rise and fall. I came from nothing at all. Watch as I fight all alone!"
