Author's Note: This is a story in Sentence format. Basically, it's 100 sentences that tells a story. Each sentence has a title that relates to that particular sentence. I wanted to try it out. It was originally going to be 50 sentences, but I couldn't fit all I wanted to into just 50, so I doubled it.
Enjoy!
