Jump Rope Trouble

Chapter One

3, 2, 1, GO!

"222, 223-"

"Whatcha guys doin?"

"WAH!"

Selphie tripped on her jump rope when Sora popped up out of no where and Kairi glared at him.

"Sora! Selphie almost had a new record!"

"Oops, sorry!"

"Sora you're a dork." Riku helped Selphie up while Kairi continued to scold him. "You ok, Selphie?" Selphie rubbed her knee, which was bleeding

"All except for my knee, yeah." Riku took one look at it before saving Sora from Kairi's ranting.

"Kairi, do you have a Band-Aid?" She shook her head.

"Why?"

"Selphie's bleeding." Kairi was instantaneously at her side, fussing and Sora was apologizing like mad.

"Ok, ok I'm fine!" Selphie started to scoot backward and accidentaly fell onto Riku's lap.

"Oh, Sorry!" She started to get up, but fell back down when she put pressure on her leg. "Ow!" Riku poked his head over Selphie's shoulder and Sora looked at her leg. "What hurts, Selphie?" She pointed to her ankle.

"I think I sprained it." Riku put his arms around her and gently prodded the said joint, Watching Selphie's face for her winces, which came twice in the same area. Kairi held her hand out,

"Let's see if you can walk with help." Kairi was able to pull Selphie to her feet and they were able to walk 3 steps before the klutz tripped, dragging Kairi down with her.

"Ow!"

"Ouch!"

"Kairi! You all right?" Sora helped Kairi up. Selphie stayed on the ground.

"Yeah, I think that won't really work." Riku held a hand out to Selphie anyways and pulled her to her feet.

"I'll give you a piggy-back ride." Selphie clapped her hands and almost fell over again if Riku hadn't caught her waist. "Careful!" Selphie leaned forward and hugged Riku. "Thank you!" Riku smiled "no problem. Now lets get you home so we can take a look at your leg." He turned around and crouched so Selphie could get onto his back.

"Wheeeeeeee!" she exclaimed when Riku stood up, who laughed and turned around to face Sora and Kairi.

"Hey Sora! I bet I can beat you in a race with Selphie on my back and Kairi on yours!" Sora's eyes sharpened with playful determination and he turned to Kairi with a puppy-dog look. "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?" Kairi took one look at him and giggled.

"Allright! Riku, where's the finish line?"

"Selphie's house." Selphie held her hand up and did a count down.

"3, 2, 1- Go!"
