Imagine you were either a slave getting ready to face the lions or a gladiator getting ready for battle. Write a journal entry on the day that you are going into the arena. Include what you feel about facing your competitor and what you feel towards the government that is forcing you to do this because you were born into poverty. (200 words)

As I was getting closer and closer to the den of the lions, I got more scared and hoped for the best. Knowing I might face my fate. I decided to look on the bright side and try thinking positive to a way out of this. While the government thought I stole something, I was helping my family. As the lions slicked their lips and got ready to pounce every step on the way. I got more terrified then ever before. Thinking there is no way out of this situation. Then the time has come, as I finally entered the lions territory, the lions got closer and closer making sure I don't get out of their sight and closing in. I'm pretty sure they are thinking of a way to split me into a feast but I hope I don't taste good if not I'm dead meat. (Seriously) As many people cheered for the lions to get this over with. I made sure to think smart and find a way to dodge and get make sure I don’t get finished in a split second. Hoping there is a way out sooner or later. I surely hope they get tired and give up!
