Gym Class – 1
"Alright class, today we will be playing soccer! Two people will be nominated to be team leaders and then the games will begin! If there are 3 nominated, make it co-leaders on each side. Remember to play fair, and that means you, Serket." The teacher scurries away from the class as if they will murder her if she stands too close. Vriska pouts in reply and turns towards the group.
"Okay, losers! If you want to win, pick me as the team leader!" She plants her feet firmly on the ground and motions dramatically as she speaks. She then points at the girl with the bright red glasses. "Terezi, I nominate you as co-captain on team Serket!"
Terezi grins manically and screams loudly, "SURE THING!"
"Now, now… Who will be our opponents as co-leaders?" Vriska grins as she straightens her glasses.
A little voice speaks up from the back of the crowd. "I nominate Aradia to be co-leader of the opposing team."
Aradia turns around to look at Tavros embarrassed and shakes her head furiously. "While I DO want to beat Serket, I disagree! I think someone else would do a better job!"
Vriska laughs loudly and interrupts Aradia's one-sided argument. "MEGIDO, HUH? Well then, Nitram, how about you co-lead on the LOSER SIDE!"
Tavros rolls his eyes and begins talking to Aradia again yet at a very quiet tone. The two giggle about their secret conversation and Aradia stands confidently to Vriska. "Alright, we accept. Team Charge VS Team Scourge."
The rest of the classmates begin to groan. "You guys do this every time! You already have permanent team names!"
"Yeah, Vriska and Terezi always make it really stupid and unnecessarily violent!"
"SHUT UP! You're just jealous because you're never on our team!" Terezi screams at the classmate who last spoke and got extremely close to him to make him feel uncomfortable. "You're always on stupid Team Charge, so you don't know what winning is like!"
"Let's just start playing!" Aradia yells and everyone quickly scurries to their usual team. "Ready, Tavros?"
He shifts uneasily and clears his throat, "Yeah… You should cover Vriska though…"
Vriska looks at Tavros menacingly and grins. Tavros shudders and whispers to Aradia. "SHE'S LOOKING AT ME, DON'T YOU REMEMBER WHAT SHE DID TO ME LAST TIME?! I HAD TO STAY IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A WEEK! THANK GOD SHE DIDN'T BREAK MY LEGS LIKE SHE THREATENED TO!"
"Don't worry Tavros, I'll avenge you! She will regret ever hurting you! Stay on Terezi, she might be crazy, but she won't hurt you. You'll get a scratch or two at the most." Aradia gives him a thumbs up and he attempts to keep his cool. He makes sure to stay as far away from Vriska as possible.
Aradia and Vriska stand only a few inches away from each other with the soccer ball in between them. "Let's do ready set go Megido." Vriska speaks as if she is superior to Aradia and laughs to herself.
"Alright, ready set go it is." She replies suspiciously.
"Ready…" Vriska says slowly. "GO!" She quickly kicks the ball out from underneath Aradia and runs laughing.
Aradia runs after her furiously. "YOU NEVER SAID SET!"
"WHO CARES ABOUT SET? NO ONE, THAT'S WHO," Vriska runs as fast as she can and approaches the goalie aggressively. She doesn't hesitate at all before kicking the ball as hard as she can, which smacks the goalie right in the stomach. The ball slowly rolls into the goal after the goalie falls to their knees. "GOOOOOOOOAL!" Vriska screams at the top of her lungs.
Everyone except Vriska stop dead in their tracks. They stare at her with worried expressions and one of them even starts crying over the fallen teammate. "HE'S DEAD! NO ONE COULD SURVIVE THAT!" Vriska glares at the screaming and crying girl in attempt to shut her up, but it was too late. The teacher approaches the group and grabs Vriska's wrist.
"What did I say, Serket?! I'm taking you to the office immediately! You lost the privilege to go alone last time after attempting to jump the fence in the back!" The teacher yells at Vriska and she begins storming off of the field. "Aradia, I would appreciate if you take him to the nurse."
Aradia nods and helps up the kid with the assistance of Tavros. "Alright, let's go. Can you walk?"
The kid shakes his head as he almost falls over. "I don't think so…"
"Stupid Serket and her always hurting people! I'm so sick of her, aren't you, Tavros?"
Tavros looks at Aradia silently after putting the kid's arm around his shoulder to keep him up. "Honestly, I do. You don't know the half of it."
