The end

So Close

It felt as if the oxygen around me was decreasing. My legs were burning yet I knew I couldn't stop. My lungs were screaming for more oxygen, but I knew that I still couldn't stop. That shinning gold energy was just waiting for me grasp it.
Looking at my empty right side, I knew that I was ahead of my brother. My arm outstretched, I could almost feel the heat it was emitting, as if it were reaching out for me too. 'This is it!' I thought.
I was so close I could feel the energy grasping my wrist and crawling up my arm. The heat caressed my face as it went for the trophy. My heart.
