Hot Pursuit

Amid a hot pursuit, Midas found himself at the centre of an enigmatic spectacle. A golden Ball the size of a football, round, elusive and untouched, was racing through the void in space making quick work of every pitiful creature that dared reach for it.

Midas could only watch as it defied the grasp of one Chosen after another in an awesome manner that even left Midas speechless.

It was like everyone was reaching for it and then slowing down allowing it to move past them, continuing to zip through the void of space without a care. Midas would follow not so far behind, also zipping by only to see something he absolutely understood.

Confused Frustration etched their faces. They had attempted to catch this Golden ball and they had done so in vain. The ball was too swift.

Midas even started thinking that only a Golden Boot could catch a Golden Ball.
