I am walking and walking, in an upwards direction,higher and higher, however, it feels like I am not making any actual progress in distance. Once I get to the top, if I ever do, I’ll be able to see the whole city, and better yet, I’ll be able to see my best friends! I’d better be back by 10:00, or my parents will be furious.

Annabeth reserved a seat, in excuse of my absence. I take my seat, and place my belongings beside me, and we start. Jamie started us off last week, and Annabeth the week before, so that would leave it up to me to tell a tale as old as time. I begin, “It was long,long ago, when the land had not yet split, when only few humans walked upon the Earth. Just 500 miles north of the Pangea, lived Goddess, Zaid. Zaid was a Goddess of Gold and Glory, therefore, she flourished in her abundance of coins, jewels, and servants. She had the power to control luck of each individual person, and the fate of each youngin.

The short, thin, homeless, child roamed the streets night and day, unsupervised, with his only job being going growing corn. He often got lost, and scared, and didn’t know his way home, therefore he would wander, and wander, until the sun would rise and it would be day again. Rialb was very genius like, and greatly gifted with a talent of smarts, but he often got overlooked, because of the absence of income, in which he could not afford to join a math club, or a spelling bee. All the people and scholars knew this, so he never even got the chance for a second

In the bleachers, three of runners dugged their teeths into the survivor’s necks, faces, shoulders, who were lying peacefully and unexpected in their sleeping bags. In the middle of the gym’s basketball court, two more runners’ yanked meat and muscles from survivor’s faces, as the survivors attempted to fight back, however their attempts were useless, the runner’s strength over powered theirs.

    I first started walking Fred Flintstone style until I reached the peak of the hill. When I first started going down the hill the adrenaline hit me. With no control over my speed it felt like a helpless free fall and the only thing I could do was steer perfectly through the narrow path. The most difficult part though was avoiding the dead piles of grass that lined the sides of the path. Being an abandoned golf course there isn’t much upkeep except cutting the grass every once in a while which built up on the side of the path. After the exhilarating and successful run I ran back up to Paul for his turn telling him how fun it…

    Language has played a big role in making my life successful. As senior year was ending I had a major life changing decision. I was unsure whether to pursue my passion of baseball in California, or to hang up my cleats for the last time on a high note. Although this was not a life or death decision, It was still a decision that was still near and dear to my heart.
