‘I need to keep going. It doesn’t matter how much it hurts, I need to keep going.’ Those are the only thoughts in my head as I ran, and ran I did. I could hear the wolves behind me even through my heavy panting, but I didn’t care. The burning sensation in my chest from the running wasn’t the only reason why. Looking down at the quite large white egg I clutched between my hands, I could feel the warmth emanating from it. Success right in my hands.  I feverishly grinned and kept running, freshly reinvigorated by my prize.  If I can’t have it, no one can. ——————— If you do happen to find this story, welcome. I do hope you enjoy reading what I write, and any feedback on what I write is appreciated and welcome. That said, I write for fun and the schedule will probably be very inconsistent (I have a tendency to procrastinate).  Anyways, thanks for reading.
