Whitewater Gorge The Old Tale-Teller

Chaska tried to give a smile, glad she would be safe. He would put his friends before himself, and this time, it would be his last act. His chest tightened as he painfully exhaled, his vision darkening till he could barely see now. His breathing became a painful wheeze. 

And soon, it was all too much. His heartbeat slowe, to a stop. And at that moment, Chaska's story was done. The final chapter of his life written, as he passed on. And the last thing he saw was the face of a dear friend, and behind them, the mountain that started it all.
