7th period

Chowder Fight?

It all started Friday night at B-ball practice; Schnitzel was being a big bully and not passing. He was also trying to show off in front of every one to be cool. Well I didn't think he was cool. Let me tell you the actual story of how things went down.

When I got to the gym everything seemed to be fine nothing out of the ordinary. I got to my locker and started to change. As I was changing Schnitzel walked by so I said hello, and he just glared at me. I just figured he was mad about something so I didn't think anything else of it. But as I met up with him again on the court I asked him to pass the ball and he acted like he didn't hear me. So I asked him again and he yelled at me to go away and not talk to him.

As practice began Coach Daal asked us to partner up for warm-ups, usually I'd ask Schnitzel to be partners but I didn't today because he seemed quite angry with me. Everyone was partnered up except for me; I had no one to be with. Then Schnitzel decides to make fun of me for it, which is very weird for him. I try to ignore him and go by myself. After warm-ups we have a little scrimmage, and I'm praying I'm not on Schnitzels team. But of course Coach Daal puts me on Schnitzels team, along with Truffles and Panini.

My team gets the ball first and we head down the court. Schnitzel started with the ball and has been hogging it since he got it. Everyone on our team is wide open but he just won't pass it. So of course it gets stolen from him and the other team scores. Again Schnitzel starts with the ball but just won't pass it, and again it gets stolen and they score. After about the 6th time of this our team is getting pretty frustrated with him so we tell him to try and pass more. He seems okay with it and is passing it around now. Except there is one problem, he's passing to everyone but me. I could be the only one open and he still would not pass it to me. After about a whole period of this I'm getting quite mad at him. So after the scrimmage I ask him why he would not pass, and he answers "I thought I said don't talk to me." At this point I have no idea what's going on, we used to be best friends, do everything together and now he hates me.

Practice gets done and every one begins to head to the locker room. I am the last one out of the gym and Schnitzel for some reason thinks that's funny and calls me a slow poke and says that I'm the slowest person in the world. Pretending I didn't here that I just keep walking to the locker room.

After I'm done changing I ask Schnitzel why he's being such a jerk. He doesn't answer so I ask him again. He stops what he's doing stands up looks at me and punches me straight in the eye, we then exchange a couple of words. Every one in the locker room heard it so they rush over and starts chanting FIGHT!! I pick my self up off the ground and charge at him. I know he's about twice my size but that doesn't stop me. I don't remember much else except I know that I got at least one good hit on him.

Coach Daal hears the ruckus and comes in the locker room. Immediately he spots the fight going on and tries to break it up. Eventually he does and sends us both to the nurse because we are both pretty beat up.

And that's when I got here and started explaining my story to you.
