#  This is essentially what I am testing 
1.  The user is prompted for a new string template (the one with the double underscores in it).

  a. The prompter class has a new method that prompts for the story template, and that method is called.

2.  The user is then prompted for each word that has been double underscored.

   a. The answer is checked to see if it is contained in the censored words.
      User is continually prompted until they enter a valid word

3.  The user is presented with the completed story

There are two things you're missing. First is you need to prompt for a story template and allow the user to input one, not use the hard-coded template (#1 and #1.a). Next, you need to print out the story with both the template and the words that are entered, not the words in fakeResults.
