Pulp Fiction (Totally open to imagination)

I wrote a short story in an 8th grade English class around 1995 called "Born to a Destiny" which was about how the Gimp became the Gimp. This was NOT turned in to the teacher, he would have us write stories in our "journal" that would be read and critiqued by other students. My buddy who got my story that day could barely keep his laughter in check. I would love to be able to find a copy of that story

ASOIAF. There is more story pre GoT. The original battles against the WW's, rise of the dragons, Robert's rebellion, etc.

"Utah in Columbus"

Johnny Utah grew up in suburban Columbus, Ohio, the apple-pie-eating, 4.0-earning All-American football player who was an emblem of Middle America and custom-made to grace the cover of Parade magazine. A moderately prized recruit, he went to (where else would he go?) Ohio State, where he took the reins from his predecessor after a string of forgetful Buckeye teams from the mid-80s. Utah started at quarterback for two years, improbably leading Ohio State to the Rose Bowl in his senior all-conference season.

In the Rose Bowl, Utah played probably the best 50 minutes of football of his life, leading the Buckeyes to a lead over the heavily favored USC Trojans. Then in the fourth quarter, what should have been an innocuous hit from a defensive end sent Utah’s shooting star on a different trajectory. On a quarterback sneak on second and short, Utah sustained a blow below the knees that turned lower leg at a 90-degree angle … the wrong way. The fluky hit resulted in a torn ACL — surgeons promised Utah he would never play football again.

Having always planned on playing football in the NFL, Utah faced the first of many personal identity crises after doctors told him wouldn’t play football again. Following his parents’ wishes, he went to law school (of course), the perfect full-time distraction for someone who no longer knew what he wanted out of life. Because Utah was the obsessive type who gravitated toward the most demanding and competitive pursuits, he thrived in law school (of course) and sought a career in law enforcement; and no donut-huffing, Big Gulp-guzzling local cop (of course), but the FBI. After law school, Utah joined the FBI Academy, where he thrived (of course), graduating at the top of his training class and demonstrating marksmanship scores that embarrassed his conference-leading completion percentage.

None. I've seen enough prequels/sequels/reboots/spinoffs for a lifetime.

Edge of Tomorrow.

Would love to see the "Angel of Verdun" back story.
