The Philestine Gangsta (a ghetto retelling of the tale of David and Goliath, as found in 1 Samuel 17 in the Bible)

The Philly gang met up at the quick mart on 3rd street. They were getting ready to bust up Sal's gang from the east side of the city. Sal's gang gathered at pump one, and the Philly gang at pump seven. They stared each other down. Geo, the boss of the Philly gang and cocking it at nine feet, stepped up. His bling dragged on the ground.

"Which of you punks think you can bust me up?" Geo halla'd. "If any of ya'll can beat me up, we'll join Sal's crew. If none uh ya'll think you man enough, we get to bust you up!"

Sal started freaking out. The rest of his homies freaked out, too.

Dave, Jesse's son, thought he could bust up Geo. Dave was just a little kid, and three of his older bros were in Sal's gang. He walked up to Sal and asked him if he could stand up to Geo. Sal agreed.

Dave and Geo approached each other. Geo shouted, "I'ma tear you apart, you midget! I'ma feed you to the pigeons!" Dave picked up a piece of gravel and silently weighed it in his hand. "D'you think I'm some kinda mutt? D'you think you can chase me off with a little rock?"

"You street punks don't know jack! I got someone bigger 'an you on my side, and He's gonna help me kick your butt! You'll be alley cat food by the time I'm through with you!" Dave screamed back. He jumped back a few feet and chucked the piece of gravel at Geo's face. Even while Geo was laughing at Dave, the gravel hit him square between his eyes. They rolled back in his head, and he fell to the pavement, dead. The Philly gang turned and ran, while Sal's gang chased them outta the city. Then Sal's gang took all of the Philly gang's stolen car parts out of their garage and sold them and used the money to buy more bling. Dave became a hero in Sal's gang and ended up becoming the gang leader when Sal kicked the bucket.
