Swimmers
Armando Point is dedicated to trade. It is a mature man whose girth resists the toughest competitions in the summer. It is the most active members of the Club Swimmers. His friends think that Point, his 55 years, risking too much when crossed by swimming the distance of the city on the island, 20 kilometers open sea, as sea ice and dangerous sharks. Criticize him for making whiskey or ride a bike long routes, long before the club morning.
Increased competition from club members is held at the beginning of spring, then taken up in July entered the summer games. But by that time the waters of the Pacific held its icy streams. Just the first day of the season Swimmers Club opens the doors to the community in general and the city oquesta enlivened with popular music and classical composers.
The group is led by stronger competitors Point, is the most medals at its own expense obtain, bets are made. Followed by the group of Ramses Ran. East, the reckless, always ready to play the all out, without taking into account the tremendous losses and personal losses, several swimmers had died en route to the island of All Souls because of bad strategies Captain Ramses.

known that during the good weather of the sea, sharks up to the surface to swallow any floating object that could feed. Contrary to what was happening as the currents swirled on the surface and the waves cast a sinking boat show and every man for himself, as the shark diving into the depths in search of small creatures to gobble in one bite.
It does not matter to Ramses Ran whose lust for power and passion for gambling was betrayed, despite its proven track record as a man of the sea and maritime companies. Lost at times the dimension of reality and fell into their own traps. A middle-aged man who concealed their shortcomings with eccentricities out of place as property and women gamble or risk the lives of their followers by promising gains value.
Ramses intended to get more support from club members who were at once attracted by the figure of Point and rejected by their physical integrity and integrity giving moral solution to the conflicts presented to him as a major partner in the Club Swimmers. They were always the weak who were the strongest and abandoned to their fate to the first of its lower failure.
For months a rumor reached the ears of swimmers: winter work towards infants, elderly, single mothers and hopeless had undermined the finances of the club. Ran advantage situation to spread among members the fallacy that the stability of the club was in danger and that only a man with enough recklessness and courage might give the place they deserved Club members Swimmers.
all of this happened while the press committee of the club launched an invitation for partners to be prepared to organize the upcoming spring and summer competitions, so calling in advance of the year the quota was to enter.
This statement confirmed the suspicion of members who doubted the effectiveness of the latest movements of Point students on scholarships and grants to workers over fifty years. It is true that since the Club Swimmers projected a favorable public image for those who want to insert into the political life of the town, but this did not matter to Point, which made it more puzzling his interest in community social category, decreased capital club in the short term but long term the club's image is strengthened, not as a society of social life outside, but as a society of men to influence decisions in the different fields will take the governments. This was the view that some favorable long-term loomed, but without immediate results in line with the opinions of the economy pragmatic prey.
performance philosophy Point began to bear fruit, as large companies turned large donations to the society of swimmers. Thus, although all indicated that Point lost popularity within the club, the winning sympathy and projection in society.
So, Swimmers Club was divided, and the accounts were not entirely satisfactory, so someone decided to turn the statement at the last moment which called for the fee to members without the permission of Point.
-needed alarm to our partners when we began to receive support from private and public institutions, said Point to one of the members of the finance committee.
"I think it was necessary to anticipate any eventuality that could hinder the proper development and organization of the celebration.
"I do not think it very wise decision to conceive, because the funds start flowing to the Club Swimmers and still remain more than three months to run the summer competitions.
"With the background that we could only organize the swimming competition ...
"That's what I mean when you get the skills for the summer we will have recovered much capital. And organize the event smoothly.
"Well, would not be quite sure what you assert, sir Point, we reviewed the accounts and lack the resources to cover all expenses. In fact, Mr. Ramses Ran offered the profits in exchange for upcoming competitions take your place in the Club Swimmers, which is not frowned upon by some directors of the 18 committees that make up the club.
"But that consensus was reached quickly, estimated Ferrer.
"That's what Ramses said, not rush. Want to bet the team competitions. But we'll bet the swimming competition open to him.
This time, the council will meet to evaluate the possibility to bet a large sum in your favor to save the club's finances.
"But ...
"We know that goes against the very philosophy and soul of the club: Ramses conditioned its participation and threatened to withdraw support for the construction of the new school if we intervene bets start to promote. So we come to this determination, your team will bet all of their policies. So get cash for the event and delimit the influence of R. is within the board of swimmers.
"I think very risky position assumed by the directors, but I appreciate the trust placed in me. I'm no hero infallible, so I notice that my discipline and training is my only guarantee. But tell me who rushed things this way. If the finance committee agreed with the last stage of the project to provide social services and wait for businesses to invest in us.
"We know that Ramses sailors benefited from four colleagues who occupy the bottom rung of the pyramid of finance.
-This explains everything, is Ramirez Meldaño, Santrón and Benavides.
"We're still to confirm the information of the intelligence, but apparently they were placing the order to advance the payment of membership fees to Club Swimmers.
A week before spring, Armando Point and Ramses Ran were in the club. Point reached before the end of daybreak, when the automatic lights in the club went out and lit the light of day in the hills.
Point swim time usually between five and seven o'clock. Recently out of the pool when his vehicle was losing Ramses who closed his car and headed to the pool area.
- Good morning, Armando, what about the dawn.
- good morning ", Ramses, just was thinking about the bet.
- Hey, but if the boys want to leave me out of the game! And they decided to bet all, who would believe this. Do not tell me who have followed your advice, Armando urchin.
- Go, Ramses's friend, now with these comments as nonsense! We both know what the club stands for and our partners are desperate to come to exercise greater political influence at all costs, is this your ... No. You are the visionary, Ramses, go, go!
"But good that you can read clearly. I know and you know what I'm capable of. And I am ready. You'd better do to one side. If you can ... You will remain a slave, I'll be my slave and master.
-Ramses, and talk like a murderer. No doubt you are, but not frighten me. I do not understand is how and that means you embedded in our organization.
"Do not be shocked my prince, remember that I have the gift of altruism and a great joy of health and manly reputation. So we'll see who wins the competition.
"Let's go on too long I have not. Total bet your policies, two billion dollars, the competition swimming in open water so that we will begin the competitions. Of course, if you have no objections to the swimmers we you and me.
-On Why would I have them. You are not the only one who crosses the sea to the island.
"This time there will be no relay, Ramses, are you aware what that means.
-Ja, ja. But that fool you. Remember that I am a sailor, captain, and you alone are the son of a sailor. Do not come to give lessons of honor and survival to me.
Ramses "Okay. So we agree to swim free of 20 km of sea that separates the island from the earth on Sunday with the start of spring. And The committee will provide the details for that event. I wish you the best of luck.
-Ya. Armando well my dear and stay and hope you do not happen in this irreparable misfortune to be, if not the last, most difficult of your skills. From here will come a winner and a loser, and you'd better take him to overcome the current and swallow the sea.
Ramses "Do not be negative. Have faith that you will come to the mainland. Have faith in God's love.
already had finished dressing while holding Armando Point Ramses's eyes that watched with a touch of irony and sadness in that moment I thought of how difficult it would win. Would run a secret plan to not succumb to the open sea.
Although the organization of the event included divers and lifeboats. I wanted to win at all costs. His condition was not bad, but his specialty was diving and snorkeling. For swimming was not the best, simply. Not kept pace in the stroke and the movement of his legs preceded him. But I had almost the same strength, the same height, and ten years younger than Armando. This was a perfectionist nature, which led him to confront his own weaknesses, their own insecurities to overcome any obstacle.
A night before the spring Sunday, Armando came to watch the tide. The weather was good for competition. There were big waves and sharks away from the surface. I had read in the newspaper that the safety committee had everything ready for the opening. Only expected to win again and to complete the leadership of Club swimmers. He was calm. Set the alarm and lay down.
At five o'clock Armando and Ramses, the competitors were on the verge of the sea. The rescue boat, divers and helicopters were waiting for the detonation of saves to observe the development of competition.
The waves pounding on rocks all opposed to the vast amorphous mass threw violent blowback of its own entrails. The seagulls flying in the vicinity of the pier. Boats tied clung to earth as a baby in fear of the umbilical cord. The world at the expense of Waterskin city by the sea and sea port men vied for life and their place in it.
rumbled detonation and the seagulls would sneak in to return when the truck carrying the fish to the closest packing.
On the old wooden pier had been the personal belongings of prominent men. The sea absorbed and lost in the vastness of its waves and riddles. Floated, swam, dived, moving slowly, nor rain could stop them.
From the helicopter were like two strokes, the strokes of the swimmers, like those lost strokes in a modernist box, as brush strokes that leave a record loss of some element vague between a composition in itself irregular.
The wind did not diminish and the helicopter left the route to avoid losing control by the gusts of wind that kept him away more and more men in the water. Divers fighting undersea currents and carried away by them not to oppose his enormous strength. Miles out to retake the route distance swimming.
Meanwhile, Armando and Ramses put into practice all your strategies to stay afloat. As soon as they were at the height of a wave so early in its depth. The thought occurred with remarkable speed. Security was certainly in the sea. Within the sea was a sense of freedom or experience matched speed. Within the sea life was seen as a struggle that imposes its own conditions. Life after all is an unstoppable stream that carries everything that opposes him. Life is the sea and is the best time to show that one has not been paid when in it. "That the best way to die is struggling against adversity."

"That the best way to die is struggling against adversity."
"That would be an honor for a sailor died at sea." "In the sea there is no guile: you are who you are. " Nobody was afraid of dying. That was the only truth we both know.
had advanced ten miles, and the ravages of salt, wind, brush with water, the lack of support, caused by the adverse conditions to approach them, and fatigue made a dent in the physical conditions Armando and Ramses. Ramses
sank into the depths of the sea. His strokes decreased significantly and was just trying to stay afloat, what I was getting barely. Armando looked askance at how your opponent lost. He swam to meet him. Ramses attracted their prey: Point had taken the bait, it took the far left when he felt something hot inside it tore. Ramses was carefully premeditated the time that the metal sink your enemy, before he succumbed. I had no strength to continue.
and prepared the tip that led ultimately result in death of Armando. The stain of blood would attract sharks. He was saved. Armando launched last look at RR full of gratitude and compassion. "This is just a test", he managed to say. Ramses hatred swelled to such signs of integrity. "Nobody can tolerate such rudeness, it's inhumane, "he thought. The blood stain was spreading. The schools came first, after them the hunters with her awesome slender rows of sharp teeth. Armando's body devoured. They shook their snouts fiercely tearing slices of the arms, legs and stomach.

De Armando was nothing left. Until the last remnants of his body were eaten by small fish that are like shadows on the sharks to feed on their leftovers.
Ramses was rescued at the last moment by salvadidas. His condition was very critical. Your bloodstream had fallen to the cold and had been paralyzed joints. His hands were sticking. No one believed what had happened. The outcome was fatal. None of that was expected. Armando Waterskin the best swimmer in town, had died at sea swallowed by sharks. Ramses Ran had been floating in the sea alive with no movement in the limbs and paralyzed for life. With evidence of crime in their hands.
