Aaron Morgan has always wanted to succeed in the sport of volleyball since he started watching players from other schools and other cities in the National Tournament when he was in elementary school, but he focused on one, the "little giant", who wa...
Since I came to this school I have improved as a person and as a player. The technique of every play in a game has been the best of me thanks to this school and my coach. I have made more friends from the school, like Alex and Harry, they don't judge my height, especially because they see that it is not an obstacle to be the best in my position.
We have been competing against different schools, all those that have the level to represent the city in the nationals and compete against the best players in Colombia, but that is just a dream for many schools, but not for us, because this school, Nekoma, came to win the nationals, and not just to try.
We made it to the finals, thanks to all our effort we are going to compete against the best school in the town, Karasuno, who have been going to the nationals for 5 years in a row. The trophy for this competition has been won by Karasuno 3 times, but the time has come for a change.

The moment arrived, the game that will decide who will represent Bogota in the nationals. It is the last battle, Karasuno against Nekoma.
-Hey Rachil! I have to go to the Volleyball's Center Live. Are you going with me or my mother? - I asked.
-Honey, I won't be able to go to the game today. I have to go to the hospital. My little brother has a surgery today because he had an accident, so I have to stay with my mother there. I'm sorry.
-God! I can't believe it. Don't worry, I will win for you and your brother.

As soon as I knew what happened to my brother I couldn't think, the first thing I did was to tell my best friend everything, Aaron, he has always been with me in the good times and the bad in my life, and I don't like the idea of not being able to be there for him at such an important moment as the final game, but I have to be there for my brother, who has always done the things by himself.
Without thinking about anything, I grabbed my car keys and drove to the hospital. All along the way I didn't have a moment of lucidity, I only saw cars passing there and I tried to gain time to arrive on time, but at one point I was blinded by the light of a car. Without being able to avoid it, I crashed, until everything went black in my mind.

We are here, the game has started and there is no turning back. The best thing we can do is to leave all our energy on the court and know that we gave it all, with all the effort possible.
We won the first set, if we win the second set, we can go to the nationals. It wasn't easy, nobody said it. In a match, the trophy is not won by one player, but it is for everyone, we all complement each other.
Halfway through the second set, the lights went out, the whole coliseum was blacked out and nobody knew what to do, but the only thing they told us was "keep playing, jump as high as you can without caring that you can't see", and we did it, until the coliseum suddenly lit up, and that's when we realized that when we run and jump on the court, we generate enough energy to give light to the whole place.
This type of energy is very adaptable and innovative, it is something that motivates us in a match to give our best effort to be able to make the energy ourselves. This power generator is high-tech and is very alternative for moments like this.
However, there are disadvantages such as that they can overload us, the players, and we can crash as a computer, because we need to rest a little and to give enough energy to a place as big as this it is necessary to do it in a row.
I think it is very useful for moments of desperation like this where it is so important to solve this, but it is necessary to find a quick solution so that the players can rest, and that's what the engineers did. There was a moment where we could stand still and the light wouldn't go out.
Thanks to this, we tried harder without having to worry about others, my only concern was Rachel, but my thoughts were only about winning. We got to 23-23 and in order to win we had to get to 25 points with a 2 points difference, so we had to make 2 points in a row to end this.
We were all tired by now, but there were only 2 points left to go. We managed to make one more, until it was time for me to be the star of the team, so the final point was made by me, with a shot that none of the players of the other team could receive. Finally, we won the final, now, we're going to the nationals. The dream of each one of us became a reality.
We all celebrated the victory with the coach, who said a few emotional words to everyone:
-Guys, I don't have words to you, but I'm very proud of all of you, who made me feel so nervous during the game, but now, I can say that we are going to the nationals!
I had never felt this way, but happiness was gone until I received a call from Rachel's mom.
-Aaron, it's me, Gladys, the Rachel's mom. I have to tell you something so important for me.
-Hey Gladys! What happened? Is your son okay?
-Yes, he is. Is something about Rachel.

I have always been close to Rachel, she has been like a sister to me. We have known each other since little ones and we have always done things together, like traveling or accompanying each other's things.
Now it's all over. Rachel has left this world and it's something I can't assimilate, being in front of his grave is something unreal to me. He left at such a sudden moment. She gave her life for her brother's. But I know that from the place she is now, she's proud of what I did, because this was for me, but especially for her.
-Hi! I brought you the flowers you like, tulips, as always - I said in front of her grave.
At last, I could create that expected "way to the sky".
