This is the ending i wrote for "The Woman and the Tiger" in 9th grade.
The man ponders whether to trust his mistress. He thinks to him self, “Why would she want me to live and marry another woman?” The thought haunted him, as he stared up at her from the arena. Amongst the screaming, he felt complete silence as they locked eyes. He turned away, and slowly walked up to the doors. He stood there as one door meant a cruel fate, and the other a cruel justice. The Princess sat, neglecting to even glance over as he chose. She was hoping, praying, that he would choose the door on the right. What held behind the door was the Tiger. Why would she let anyone else have him? The man was still standing there. He did not want to choose, as either door meant him dying, outside or inside. Finally, he chose the door on the left. He chose left because he had lived on the left of the palace walls, and he always went left to get to his mistress. He very much wanted to wait another minuet, but he realized there was no reason to stop the inevitable. He opened the door, and out came the woman. She looked as beautiful as ever. Her long dress and beautiful figure stunned the man, as he both was saved and killed. The crowd screamed in rejoice as the man fell to the rough area and wept. Knees bleeding, he had lost his one true love. He couldn’t believe that the Princess wanted him to chose the door on the right, as it would have killed him. “Did she really love me?” The thoughts ran through his head as he was being wed. He was hoping it was only a mistake, and that the Princess didn’t know and was only trying to help. As the Priest declared the man and woman wed, the Princess could only watch, in terror, as the, am she loved was being married to the woman she most dearly hated. The man got u, and took the woman he did not love out of the stadium and home. There, in her seat, the Princess sat as the Peasants filled out of the Arena and back to their normal lives....
