From Everest
"What's the matter with you, kid? Why don't you look where you're going?"
"Sorry." Dominic picked up the vial and scooted out of the way. Mom had continuous nightmares that climbing would kill at least one member of her family. I'll bet she wasn't expecting it to happen like this, he reflected, a little shaken.
The SUV accelerated up the ramp, pausing at the top. The driver tossed a candy bar wrapper into the trash barrel and drove off. It was a Summit Energy Bar. Dominic recognized the logo from where he stood, rooted to the spot. He had climbed towering cliffs, yet walking up this gentle slope to get that piece of paper seemed much, much harder.
He reached into the garbage and fished out the sticky wrapper. In a way, he almost knew what he would see before he turned it over.
A V!
It was a ticket to the top of the world.
