Hello guys, this is my entry for this weeks #marveloustales .


this drawing is mine, use it if you like

Uhhh, if people are wondering why I used this account for this entry, well I just want this account to have some rep. I actually asked about it to some trusted people in the platform, and they've told me it's okay as long as all I post here are all mine and are originals...Well, the lazy @apsu told me it was wrong...That bread!!!!!


In an endless horizon of endless possibilities, a sacred road rests, waiting to be explored, a girl ventures with her best bike.

Rosalina, a young girl wearing a hoody, standing around 6.5 to 7.5 ft with big mascular body and hairy chest is our protagonist for this story(well, I just made a really misleading illustration here you know).

Well, to pin down the details, Rosalina was born from a giant race. Her parents are both giants. Papa Max who was a lumber jack and Mama Corry, who is a house wife. Rosalina has a wonderful life, she attends school, goes to church every Sunday and eats meal three times a day.

Today is Rosalina's weekend vacation and somehow she felt bored playing with her Overwatch all day. And so with that, she felt doing cycling and rushed into their garage to grab a bike.

In the garage, she saw a really beautiful sight. The BMX 31080 Limited Girls Edition bike, which her father bought for her for her 13th birthday. What a wonderful gift for a 13th birthday.

Putting her helmet on and strapping her gears, she started to hit the road.

"Hey, Rosalina, where are you going?" Lala, a friend of Rosalina has shouted while walking her dog. Lala is an elf from a somewhat influential family. Somehow, it caught Lala's attention that she saw Rosalina with her bike in a weekend.

"I'm going to achieve 'Red'!" Rosalina said with confidence.

"Huh? 'Red'? You're insane!" Lala reacted in response.

Just before Rosalina was able to pedal away from Lala, Rosalina used her breaks. "Schweeee", the sound Rosalina's wheels made when she suddenly used the breaks.

"What are you thinking? Do you know how dangerous 'Red' is?", Lala said in a somewhat convincing manner.

" I already made up my mind Lala."

"Haaaaaa....", Lala was stoned in shock.

"So there is nothing that I can do to stop you", Lala stated in a depressed manner.

After Rosalina say 'later' to Lalala, Rosalina pedalled again. She went straight two blocks and turned right after the traffic light.

Rosalina was probably pedalling for an hour already, but her determination is rock steal, she will definitely do 'Red" today.

"Rosalina! Rosalina! Rosalina!", a fawn with a leather jacket named Thomas was calling Rosalina from the other side of the road.

Rosalina stopped and approached Thomas.

"Lala called me a minute ago, is it true?" Thomas asked a little frustrated.

"Yes, today is the day!"

"Wow, I think you're really ready for it. Ganbare Rosalina! I'm rooting for you", Thomas said encouraging Rosalina.

And so, with such little words, Rosalina's fire went bigger. As if her heart were burning and someone poured kerosene into it.

"Rosalina, Rosalina, Rosalina" voices were starting to be heard as Rosalina gets closer to 'Red'. As Rosalina Pedals, the voices gets louder.

It was Margarine street, the said street where the legendary road is to be seen.

After Rosalina turned left, Rosalina smiled. There, Rosalina saw all of her friends shouting her name.

"Rosalinaaaa",everyone was shouting, it was a really dramatic moment, Rosalina shed in tears.

"Everyone, what are you all doing here?", Rosalina asked with such happy emotion.

"We are here to support you ofcourse", Thomas said.

"With all these hard work you've done, there is no way you can't achieve 'Red', Rosalina", Lala added as encouragement.

As Rosalina pedalled closer to the end of the road, one by one, Rosalina's friends gave her a pat.

No words were needed, just a pat meaning "ike!", a Japanese word meaning 'go'.

There in the starting position, she readies herself. With her sight in the goal and her heart in the price, she looks at it, the highest and steepest road in town. A road painted in deep red to warn people the dangers it has. The 'Red'!

With one last breathe before she attempts 'Red', Rosalina looks at her friends and waves.

"Goooooo!", everyone shouts.

"Itekimaaaasssssssuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!, Rosalina shouted while pedaling down the 'Red'.

The 'Red' is approximately 60 meters long and has a height of 50 foot from it's starting point which is above sea level.

Rosalina is picking up speed caused with such steepness, the steer kinda feels a little shakey and fear started to knock into her heart.

"You can't do it" a voice inside Rosalina said.

"Huh?"

"Use the break and give up, there is no way you wouldn't get hurt from this", the voice added.

"Who are you?", Rosalina asked in confusion.

"You don't know me? I was always with you. During all these times, I was with you, how come you don't know me?"

Inside Rosalina was a very dark room, inside her room, she saw someone appearing from the darkness inside the room.

"I know you, there is no longer a need for you, just hide there and wait till I end this 'Red'!. Rosalina answered in high spirits making the fear in the dark room hide itself again into the none ending darkness.

"A fear like you can't stop me anymore."

Rosalina then remembers all the hardships she had experienced, from that time she blew a tire, that time when her tire is out of air and many more hardships no one can imagine. Life is tough indeed!

With a few more meters till the end of 'Red',another trouble appears.

An old lady with her pet poodle is crossing the street. With Rosalina in her full speed, there is no way she could steer to change her direction.

"Ahhhhhhhh, old lady watch out!" Rosalina shouted.

Rosalina had no choice, she needs to use her breaks! It's a hard decision to make but lives are at stake, she needs to stop!

"Schweeeee", with her break a loud screech has been made. The break wasn't enough, Rosalina had to use both her legs. "Ackkkkk", Rosalina cries as she tries to stop her run with all she has. That cry is no ordinary cry, that is an honorable battle cry. Rosalina is indeed fighting!

Two more meters before she hits the old lady, still her bike isn't slowing down.

Then it became a meter.

Then three feet.

"Nooooo", the old lady cried covering her face with her arms.

With inches away from hitting the old lady with her poodle, Rosalina and her bike made a complete stop saving the old lady and her poodle from danger. Phew, man, that was intense...

"Oh man!"

"She was so close to it..."

"She should had just dodged or something, what a waste."

These were the comments after the incident. It is sure frustrating, but Rosalina was still happy even after the failed attempt.

She was happy cause of how exciting the moment was, it was like she felt every drop of blood flowing in her body. Every breathe she made was as if it was her last.

Rosalina felt alive for the first time in her life. Rosalina then rushed home to tell her parents the tale.

With a smile in her face as she pedals home, she knows, she will try it again next weekend. And she knows, this time, she will succeed 'Red'.
