A/N (skip down if you don't want to read): this is an alternate ending for The Hudsucker Proxy that we had to do for econ class. That's why its so short. If you've never seen The Hudsucker Proxy, then shame on you.
Anyway, I'm sorry I haven't written anything in a while. I may be coming out with a Kim Possible fic soon, though. I was inspired by the movie.

Disclaimer:The Hudsucker Proxy was written by Ethan Coen, Joel Coen, and Sam Rami. It also belongs to various other companies/persons, but there are far too many people involved in the movie process for me to list them all.

Gripping the ledge, Norville Barnes looked up into the eyes of his killer.

'No, not killer,' he thought, 'this is suicide, after all.' Breathing in deeply, he let go, praying his end would be quick…

And it was. Falling was the most painful part of the experience, seemingly lasting forever, but eventually it ended, and Norville Barnes was nothing more than a stain on the sidewalk.

…

…

After regaining consciousness, Norville slowly approached the large white gates. 'Heaven?' he asked himself, noticing the clouds and cherubs, "Why am I in heaven? I killed myself!"

While Norville was thinking these things, he was approached by a large man with white hair and a long white robe.

"Norville," he began. "I am – "

"Werring Hudsucker," Norville interrupted.

"Yes, and if you'll stop interrupting me, I'll tell you why you're here," Hudsucker snapped, obviously angry with the young inventor. Seeing Norville's flinch and subsequent silence, he continued. "you are quite possibly the most idiotic person I've ever encountered. You could have had the world in your hands, a successful company and a lovely woman, if only you'd opened that blue letter!"

As Hudsucker finished with a bellow, the blue letter appeared in Norville's hands. Opening it up, he skipped the parts Hudsucker advised him to skip and read the parts pertaining to him.

"Oh God…" Norville said, realizing what he'd given up. "Oh God…"

Sometime during the time it took Norville to read the letter, Hudsucker had crept off, leaving the young inventor alone with his grief. But even if he had dressed in drag and done the hula, it is doubtful Norville would have noticed, he was so overcome with grief.

"Oh God…" he said, falling to his knees in despair. "Oh God…"
