Endor: episode #7 The Race ends
Anyway, the Race is 3/4 the way over. Let’s review what has just happened in even greater detail! Id rigged Walker’s ship in hopes to win the race. The race started. Walker takes the lead, a very good lead. Not too long into the race he says, “What’s wrong.” Soon his ship stops. Now, the Race is setup in a triangle shape. There is a mid checkpoint exactly in between the start and finish. The checkpoint is an island. They had all made it past the checkpoint. Sky, I, Iot, and the rest of the crowd have just taken horses to the finish by land. A guy had told them Walker was in the lead. Sky was pleased. Then, Walker’s ship stopped and was forced out of the race. This saddened Sky. She didn’t care or pay attention to the rest of the race! Anyway, a tow man came and asked Walker what was wrong with his ship. Walker had told him he didn’t know. So he began towing him out of the race. Id takes the lead and it looks like he’s going to win. The racers are in view. That is where new info. Will be given. Who will win the race? Jed saw that Walker is no longer in the race. “Where could Walker be?” Then he saw the tow ship. He was that far behind. He realized what had happened and also realized he now had a chance at the race. Not a very likely one, but a chance. That was what he needed. He had enough determination. But could he pull it off? Suddenly, Jed was going his hardest. He put so much energy into it that he didn’t notice he had passed all ships...but one. But the crowd did. They knew. The crowd went wild! Id glanced back and saw Jed on his tail. “Oh no. I should have rigged his ship, too!” But it was too late for that and Id and everyone else know that. Then, it was then that Jed realized what had happened. He had enough willpower to do so, but could he do so? Jed knew that only one remained and it was within his reach. Iot, “Use your water power blaster controls!” Iot was thinking the same thing. He pushed it and saw the waterpower thing was empty! “Oh no, now I’m really in trouble. Id pushed his ship as fast as he could. It was not fast enough. Id and Jed are neck and neck and the finish line is only 4 feet away. Id was thinking that if only his water blaster controls worked. (It was a hidden compartment that when the lever is activated, it sprays out water high so the people around him can’t see for a brief moment and it makes him go faster. But the starting condition is that it has to have water in it.) Jed pushed with his remaining strength and took the lead. In a matter of seconds he crossed the finish line. First! Id was second and the rest followed. The crowd cheered and hugged the others. Walker and the toe men came into view. They hugged and celebrated. Except Sky and Walker. Walker says, “I just don’t understand it. I even checked the ship last night and there was nothing wrong with it!” Sky shook her head and said, “Isn’t it about time for the meeting?” With that last sentence said then, a bunch of, “Oh yeah,” and they all headed for the meeting hut. Until next time!
