The salty sea breeze washed over Triatath like a torrent of water. He gripped the job poster tightly. "I guess I don't really need a reward for my first job" he muttered to himself as he walked up to the small cottage-like building with the word "charity" promptly printed above the door. As Triatath walked in, he felt a wave of kindness and friendliness wash over him. An elderly gentleman waltzed up to him and greeted him. His thick accent made it impossible to actually distinguish half of what he was saying. He seemed to be saying something about kind young gentleman or that he wishes his generation was as great as Triatath's. Triatath took out a large piece of paper which he smoothed and unfurled on a table inside of the charity building. On the paper was a crudely drawn depiction of some sort of race. Triatath explained to the man that he planned on having a race, people would bet that they could beat Triatath or that they were faster than other people. The proceeds would go to this charity.
This idea seemed alright, the only issue was "What does the charity actally donate to?" Triatath looked at the old man with a puzzled look. The old man's eyes darted around the room. "well you see, sonny, this charity is for... um... local animals at the shelter" Triatath raised his eyebrows and exclaimed "why did you hesitate?" The old man had a very depressing look on his face "Well, I don't thing it is very manly of me to care about little animals." Triatath let out a bellowing laugh as he walked out the door to set up the competition.
