More from Zoie_Falcona
She was inspired by two things. One was a raccoon that I saw was hit by a car, reaching out to me desperately for help because her spine was broke, but before I could do anything the second car ended her life. The second was my friend, MoonlitCaitlyn, who said I should draw a chipmunk.
Aliyah, who also suffered from being hit by a car when she was little, lived in a state of lethargy and was constantly bullied when she was young. Many times her classmates purposely pushed her down the steep hill of her school to see her wheelchair flip over and her fall. Her confidence rock bottom, an older classmate who also used a wheel chair sped through and rammed the bullied then picked up his cane to defend her. Of course he got in trouble for assulting others and met with suspension, when he came back to school two weeks later, Aliyah was there at the carport, wanting to be the first to thank him.
The two quickly bonded and he noticed she had the same emotions and thoughts that he did at that age and invited her to the video room of the library, which was being worked by one of her constant bullies. He asked her to watch one video and one video only and he will change her mind forever about wheel chairs. The bully scoffed but when the video came on, both of the two were amazed. It was a paraolympic short track race of people using wheel chairs.
"Holy shit! They're fast!" scoffed the bully, a rabbit,"... but not as fast I, I can run at nearly 30 miles an hour!"
"Look closer at the subtitle, they're faster.. much faster," smirked the wheelchair bound wolf.
"Oh God.... nearly 40 miles an.. " as the rabbit jawdropped.
"Precisely, the world record right now is over 45MPH in a stainless steel racing wheelchair," remarked the wolf. He then looked to the chipmunk, who was still transfixed on the television screen as the wolf wheeled next to her and spoke,"I will be racing with the UNC hospital para-team this Saturday if you and your "friend" want to come see..."
Of course she asked her parents, they took her and the rest as you say.. is history. Now she currently trains with her high school with several others in racing in the fall, wheelchair basketball during the winter, and wheelchair tennis in the spring. She won the county title for the JV team for the 100m and 400m in racing and wheelchari basketball withand the state title three times on the varsity team for the 100m and 400m, the state title in wheelchair basketball her senior year, and won the state title in tennis twice with an invite with the paraolympic 2016 team to which she declined as she was declined for a passport because of "lost paperwork". She is currently accepted into the University of North Carolina under the pre-med program as that one fateful encounter has her set to help others, as a wolf once did for her.
Speaking of the wolf, she is currently part of the U.S. Paraolympic team for wheelchair rugby (yes it is a thing!)
