Zipline Creative Writing

Improved Essays
I’ve never felt this before. Hanging from a zipline was new to me. The air is no longer disgusting or moist, but crisp.

    So I slowly grasped the sweaty handle bars of the zip line and the conductor tightly put the black belt on my waist. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I took one deep breath and started thinking about how much I had to do in life and if I should go on this risk taking ride. Though, my fear was there, I thought about how this zip line wasn’t that long and could probably come back in 2 minutes, and I could always close my eyes which sort of helped to relieve my fears..…

    Liz sat in her study, throwing pencils around and sighing as she looked at the wrinkles on her hands. "Vale had a module to extend his life, didn't he?" She then jumped straight into a standing pose and smirked, before grabbing blueprint paper from X-13's Lab. Quickly she roughly drew a square, and quickly drew notes around it, stating; 'Square design, uses tubes to send reinvigorating liquids through the veins, probably painful to insert, you need to replace your arm with metal to use it.' She winced, thinking of the pain she would be inflicting upon herself to prolong her life, She continued to draw, and began to think of the liquids she would use to enact the modules work.…
