Beating the Odds

By R.C. Angel and Emmi

Prologue



Yay! The after school duo is finally writing together. After much discussion, we have decided to write on a topic that we haven’t yet seen written on the Tower. Of course you’ll have to read the intro, which is coming up in a sec… to know what this is about. If you want to email Rachel (R.C. Angel) email me/her at rcangel13@hotmail.com and if you want to email Emily/Emmi (Emmi) email me/her at animesweetie2006@hotmail.com and we would love a review! Thanks so much for reading.

Introduction



Hi! My name is Robert Macson. I’m 14 years old. I have a dream of one day becoming a Pokémon master. I bet right now you’re thinking, well, duh, isn’t that EVERYONES’ dream? Well, I can’t. I’m blind. When I was eight years old, I was in a car accident. Everything recovered, except for my eyesight.

So, no matter how badly I want to be a Pokémon master, doctors say I can’t. I could get badly hurt! Screw them! Screw everybody who says I can’t go. The only person who believes I can is my best friend’s Rachel Garrettson. She has supported me all the way.

So, Rachel and I are planning to run away, to start our own Pokémon journey. She will be my seeing guide, and we are going to rule!

I hope I can master my goal. I want to be like my idol, Ash Ketchum. Although he didn’t have a disability like I do, he tried and tried and was successful. And like him I will too dominate, I will beat the odds. I just can’t give up.

It’s almost 9:00pm. Rachel should be coming up my window in about four hours. I will leave one solitary note to my family, and off to a world I have never experienced. Off to chase my dream. I can do this.

I know I could get into a lot of trouble. It’s worth it. Well, I have to start packing. There is always a disadvantage to some things… well, bye for now!



Ok, that is VERY short. But it’s only a prologue. This one Emmi and I worked on together. Otherwise, I (Rachel/R.C. Angel) will be writing odd chapters and Emmi (Emmi) will be writing even ones. For every 10 we will be writing one together. It’s easier that way ^^. Well email both OR one of us with a review.
