Free Will

Free will is the ability to make one's own decisions voluntarily. I find myself exercising free will a lot of the time. A lot of the time, my exercising of free will involves dancing and singing. I cannot dance. I have fully accepted this fact even though I find myself busting a move at times. I was not meant to be a dancer in life, and I was not given a dancer's body by my parent's chromosomes. However, every time I dance, or make lame attempts at doing so, I feel I am exercising my free will. Furthermore, I feel that I am not a very good singer, which is part of the reason that I am in band instead of choir. My glass-shattering voice does not stop me from singing boistrously to my favorite songs. I even joined the A Capella Club (a singing club that uses no music to guide the singers). Free will is apparent in this example as I keep on singing despite my voice. Fate is not holding me back in my musical ambitions.

Villains

With every protagonist, there is an antagonist. When the antagonist takes the form of a character, this character is usually referred to as the villain. To most viewers, the villain acts primarily as a character designed to create conflict and to complicate the plot. This is true, especially as viewers become attached to the protagonist and hope for their success. However, the role of the villain serves more than these purposes; the villain is designed to better understand the protagonist of the story. Generally, the reason that the conflict between the protagonist and the villain exists is that they have opposing ideas and morals. The villain is ultimately a foil for the protagonist as they accentuate the positive qualities in the protagonist so that we as readers support their success.
Furthermore, the villain gives the reader an idea of reality as the world contains both good and bad people. Were there to be no villain, the story would be hardly anything like real life because the heroine would be able to succeed without opposition. The villain complicates the plot, but in the sense that people don't get what they want with such ease in real life.
