Runaway Heart
My name is Dragan. I was born April 7, 2001. I was born on the south side of New Domino. When I was five years old, my mom left, leaving my father to take care of me. We used to climb mountains all the time, until one day, my eighteenth birthday to be exact, my dad and I were spelunking when the cave collapsed on us. My father was badly injured.
At the hospital, they told me that my father's operation would cost a lot of money. For once in my life, I felt like there was no hope. While leaving the hospital, I encountered a small man named Lazar. He said if I duel "The Great King," Jack Atlas, I would receive some money. Well, I was in desperate need of money, so, I agreed to duel. The day of the duel, I realized THIS DUEL WAS A SETUP. I was supposed to lose in order to get the money. All of a sudden, I became angry. Angry at myself for agreeing to this mutiny, mad at all the people who set this up.
I put on my helmet and made my way to my runner. The crew primped me (just to lose) and then, out I went. I felt like I was about to get shot backwards by The Titan. I could hear the crowd cheering wildly, and my heart pounding in my ears. Soon all other noises faded and all I heard was my heartbeat.
