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.

The race

The race

As he came speeding up the hill, streams of sweat rolled down the side of his face instantly. Not knowing what position he was in, Jack’s heart started beating fast which made him feel extremely nervous, His stomach turned and turned but at this point he was still determined to finish the race, so he kept going.

At that moment Jack had already made it  halfway through . He felt relieved because he knew that it meant he only had a short way to go, in a flash he speed off. A couple of minutes later Jack decided to start going even faster  but as he placed his foot on the pedal, his bike wouldn’t move not even a little bit. His bike was stuck in the dirt. Jack was stressed and worried at the same time because all he wanted to do was finish the race.

Suddenly Jack came up with an idea. He quickly hopped off his bike and tried pushing it so that it would come out from the other side. As Jack was trying his best to push it out, he could see others passing him and finishing the race. It made him turn red because he really didn’t want to come last. So he quickly pushed his bike as hard as he could and it finally came out.

When he got his bike out of the dirt, Jack quickly  jumped onto his bike and speed down the track to the finish line. On his way to the finish line he could hear the crowd cheering for him and encouraging him to keep going and so he did. As he reached the finish line and crossed it a massive smile popped up on his face because he was extremely proud of himself, and that he decided to never give up.
