Moneybags Jr.
                  Mr. Moneybags was somehow able to find a woman in his dreadful life that thought he was worth bearing a child for. She was dreadfully mistaken about Mr. Moneybags being worth anything but a fat bank account. They did however reproduce and they created a most interesting and puzzling individual. His name was Moneybags Jr. He hated his last name and hated pretty much anything that had to do with his father. You see Junior here resents his father for giving him the world but never spending any time with him as a child. So naturally when the time came for Junior to graduate high school and move to college he chose a destination as far away from his home in Boston as possible. This lead him to the University of Washington in Seattle. It is no coincidence that his destination is also the home of Microsoft, the company in which his dad has lost all faith. This hatred for Microsoft of Moneybags Sr. sparked an interest in the company from Junior. It was the Junior's first day in Seattle. After getting off of his plane alone he flagged down a cab to take him to his dormitory as all first year students are required to live on campus. Junior asked the cab driver to take him through the interesting parts of Seattle's down town seeing as he had never been to the city. They were driving through the fisherman's wharf there was a woman chasing her young child across the street when the cab driver had to slam on his breaks. At this moment, tires screeching to a halt, Junior's head whipped around to the left and just before his eyes closed they met another set of eyes, the most beautiful eyes he'd ever seen, and for that one moment, for the first time in his entire life he felt at home.

Mr.Moneybags
 It was a well lit corner office with a beautiful view of the vast expanse known to people as the Atlantic Ocean. This office was currently occupied by Moneybags. Mr. Moneybags that is. He was a fat man, lazily dressed and his skin, his skin was the most awful white color with strange red splotches. Moneybags was a particularly well off man. Well off meaning rich. Rich meaning he owns lots of things. To say this man was rich in spirit or life or love would be just plain wrong. He was monetarily wealthy and that was all he cared about. It was five o' clock and he was preparing to leave for the day. First he shutdown his iMac, checks his emails, Facebook, and whatever else he was interested in on his iPhone. He then shut off his office light and walked towards the exit. He went to the back up computer to back up all his files for the day. He did so as usual sending off all his data to the iCloud. The last thing he does is check the bank statement at the reception desk computer. This was a normal day for Mr. Moneybags. This day however would be the last normal day for Mr. Moneybags for quite a long time.
