"If you think you're soooo good at motor cross, I challenge you to a race." Melissa smirked at her friend, Meghan rolling her eyes. The two teenage girls were in a paddock, having fun and riding their motorbikes were soon to be challenging one another.
"We have a deal," Meghan bored her green eyes into Melissa's deep blue ones, "But if I win, you owe me an ice-cream from the shops when we finish."
"And if I win, you have to buy me an ice-cream." Melissa stared back into Meghan's, almost like a staring competition. Meghan soon started to giggle, then they both laughed together, "See? You can't even win a staring competition!"
Meghan stuck her tongue out in a humorous way, making them both laugh once more. Meghan put her bike helmet back on and mounted herself on her white motorbike, "Shall we start?"
Melissa, doing the same thing, mounted on her own green bike, "We shall."
Looking ahead at the make-shift track that they had made out of the dirt, they both revved their engines. Melissa glanced at Meghan, giving her one last teasing look. Meghan once again rolled her eyes.
"On your mark.. Get set," Melissa counted down, "GOOO!"
They were both of to a speeding start, Meghan swiftly moving ahead of Melissa. Surprised, Melissa moved on the inside of the track to move ahead. They then rounded of the first turn of the course, everything going seemingly well.
A couple of laps later and Meghan had gone in front of Melissa a few times, but to her disbelief she always came back to first place.
It then soon became the last lap, both girls gaining up on each other, Melissa still in first place. She turned her head around to look at Meghan, who had a look of horror on her face.
"Melissa! Look out!" She shouted, pointing at the tree in front of them. Melissa turned back around, but it was too late. She had managed to hit the tree with a force so hard she went flying, a few ribs cracking in the process. Melissa then hit the ground, laying motionless in the dirt and grass.
"Melissa!" Meghan jumped of her bike, not caring where it went and ran over to Melissa, "Oh no, no no no no.."
Meghan tilted Melissa's head with her shaking hand to see her face, she was as white as a ghost. Meghan was freaking out, she didn't know what to do. She did however have her mobile phone on her, she pulled it out and speed dialled the ambulance. After telling them where they were, the call ended as her phone ran out of data.
Meghan looked over at her, not knowing if she was dead or alive. She put her ear against her chest above her heart trying to make out a heartbeat. She heard nothing, just the sounds of the birds and Meghan's soft sobbing.
