The bright Light

The bright light

Standing in a dark lonely room felt as cold as ice. Breathing in deeply he suddenly noticed a bright light that look as if it was close, but was actually far away from him.  With steady fingers, he adjusted the special backpack on his shoulders. He had to reach the light soon.  So he quickly hit the power button on the backpack and knew he would be up there within seconds.

All of a sudden he felt nothing go up. He realized that his backpack wasn’t working and that he wouldn't be able to go up and see the bright light. Feeling disappointed but not willing to give up  he quickly looked around him to see if he could find something to help him get up to the light. While he was looking everywhere around the cold dark room for something, he managed to find  some old tools in the corner of the room. So he thought that he would use them to try and fix his back pack.

At that moment he grabbed the tools and opened up the back of his back pack. He noticed that the screw in the back came out so all he had to do was screw it back in place. Once he finished screwing it in, his face turned purple and a massive smile appeared on his face within seconds, because he could finally see the bright light.

Once he turned the backpack on he felt his feet leave the ground and him getting close to the bright light, he knew he would be there very soon. As he got to the bright light he felt extremely amazed at what was in front of him because he really wanted to see it and he was finally able to.
