You - along with other people - felt the need to battle, but you didn't know whether to [[speak-up]] or [[continue with your daily life]].
You gathered others and spoke-up to ''Continental Congress'', but they ignored you and all the other people that came with you. You decided to [[continue with your daily life]].
You just continued to work at your store, selling paper, ink, and a mix of other things. You look outside through your window, //'I guess I'm not going to get much business today,'// you thought to yourself. You didn't know whether you want to [[stay at the store]] or [[go home]].

You decided to stay at the store. Right when you were about to close the store, you saw a man walk through. //'Should I [[talk to him]] or [[ignore him]]?// <audio src="http://soundbible.com/grab.php?id=911&type=mp3" autoplay>
As you were closing up the store, a man rushed in. He adjusted his hat, and walked over to you. "Hello, my mistakes. Was I a little late?" You had no idea who this person was - or what he was talking about. You weren't sure whether you should [[talk to him]] or [[continue packing up the store]].
"Um, excuse me, but who are you?" The man turned around. //'Is he a patriot or a loyalist?'// [[should I ask]] or [[should I think of something to talk about?]]
Despite your tiring day, you were in no mood to talk to him. He tapped your shoulder. "Excuse me, could I possible have a moment to speak with you?"
You sighed, and said, "I suppose, but whom am I talking to?" You looked at the man. He was a man who dressed up like a few of the generals, wearing a black coat to top it all off. //'Is he a patriot or a loyal?'// You wondered. [[should I ask]] or [[should I think of something to talk about?]]
You continued to pack up the store. You got a few crates to relocate them by the counter that you work at to put feathers and ink - and a number of other items that weren't that big of a success to your store. He continued to walk over to you, making the floor of your store creak even more. You saw, from the corner of your eye, that he was wearing a suit. //'Is he a patriot or a loyalist?'// [[should I ask]] or [[should I think of something to talk about?]]

"Excuse me, um... sir?" He stood still and stayed quiet. "Are you a patriot?"
"Yes I am. I am fighting for the right of freedom for us patriots. However there are some that stil believe in the British, they are loyalists." He stopped then groaned in frustration. "I am getting off the main point of the conversation." He huffed. Have you heard about the ''Boston Massacre''?" You nodded.
"Yes, I do." It was true. It happened outside your store. You - and a bunch of other customers - were terrified.
"Well, I am gathering a group of people to help fight against the British. Many people that are still angered by this event joined without a second thought." He paused. "I have a question that may seem random, but is //''George Washington''// a good leader?"
"He's a great leader. Why do you ask?"
"Well, instead of someone else leading our army, I decided that he would be a better leader than //''John Hancock''//. George is always ready for anything. He's also willing to the right thing."
Someone from outside ran into the store.
"The King, he's... he's here!" They rambled. But they were right. As you look outside, you saw a man walk down the gravel path. //''King George III''//. Even though you were wanting to fight, you felt peace within yourself.
//But you still felt the need to battle.//

"Hi, I am Oakley." You gleamed at the man.
"Hello, I am John Adams." He looked at you and walked from the doorway to the counter.
"Well, it's nice to meet you, sir." You said. You held out your hand, and he shook it. "I've heard about you, and your brother."
"Yes, that was probably me... wait, I am getting quite off the main point of the conversation. Have you heard about the ''Boston Massacre''?" You nodded.
"Yes, I do." It was true. It happened outside your store. You - and a bunch of other customers - were terrified.
