Writing Challenge 28: Ludicrous Swimmer and Cauldron

Michael Phelps looked into the cauldron and sighed. He knew what he was about to do was wrong but he knew he had to. See, the cauldron is filled with a green liquid known as Drazzle. This Drazzle stuff is the secret to the big boy’s success, he would be nothing without it.

In fact, the entire 2010 year he did not take any of it and the effect of this was that Ryan Lochte, of Florida, was deemed the fastest swimmer of the 2010 year. This really upset Phelps so he went back to the Drazzle, which was a steroid that never shows up in drug tests.

As he put a cup into the simmering liquid his coach, Bob Bowman, walks in and is kind of shocked to see Phelps downing anther illegal drug. “Ludicrous Swimmer! Or can I even call you a swimmer now? You are just a cheater and I cannot believe I wasted my time on you!”

Phelps tried to make excuses but he knew it was no use. He gave over his cauldron, with his head sung low, and walked out of the room.

Phelps’ career was over. He has won 14 golds and 16 total medals in three Olympics, he left millions of fans mouth a gaped at his ferocious swimming and his amazing body.

But, from then on Phelps lived his own life. He started a drug dealership, selling Drazzle and every now and then go and smoke out of a bong again. Pictures of him surfaced but no one cared anymore. The swimming world turned his back to Phelps and he had turned his back to them. He never went back to swimming and never regretted a thing.
