The Tourney Match Part 2

Timothy rubbed his eyes, "Was I? I hadn't noticed." he yawned.

Timothy was about to fall asleep again, until Dorrie stopped him.

"Timothy!" Dorrie shouted.

Timothy jerked awake again.

"Huh? What?" Timothy asked in a startled manner.

"You almost fell asleep again." Dorrie said to Timothy.

"And, right into your strawberry yogurt," Candice added. "how embarrassing!"

"Are you all right, Timmy Darling?" Gwen asked.

"I'm fine, Mama," Timothy answered. "just fine."

Timothy just yawned.

"I don't know," Gwen said to Timothy. "I think you should stay home from school today."

"Stay home from school! But Mama," Timothy protested. "what about the tourney game today against Fairyardia Junior High?"

"I'm sorry, Timmy Darling," Gwen said firmly. "Mama knows best, your health comes first!"

"Oh, come on, Gwen," Candice pleaded. "let Timothy have a little fun."

Gwen knew when she was defeated.

"Okay, Timothy," Gwen sighed. "you may go to school today."

After breakfast was over, it was time for school at Hexley Hall, Chivalry Hall, Ever Realm Academy, and Royal Prep.

Aboard a flying carriage to Hexley Hall, Lita and Taiki were talking about the tourney match that afternoon while Timothy grabbed a sip of water from his water bottle.

Taiki looked over at Timothy, "Are you all right?" he asked.

"That is what everybody wants to know," Timothy answered Taiki. "including me."

Samantha Cook, Timothy's girlfriend who everyone called Sam looked over at Timothy.

"What are you saying?" Sam asked Timothy.

"One minute I'm having problems staying awake and the next minute... I'm having problems staying hydrated," Timothy explained. "what's next? And why is this happening to me?"

"While everyone is at the game this afternoon," Sam said. "I will be in the library, seeing what our resident living spellbook, Hexla has to say about what you are going through, Timothy."

"And while you're doing that, Sam," Jade offered. "I will keep an eye on Timothy while we sit in the bleachers."

"Thanks, Jade." Sam said.

That afternoon on the new Hexley Hall tourney field, the tourney team from Fairyardia Junior High arrived.

Derek Von Schroeder, the captain of the Hexley Hall turney team was still upset that Coach Shang would even think about letting a girl on their prestigious boys only tourney team.

"Hey, Mizuki," Derek shot at Makoto. "shouldn't you be where you belong? You know? With the other girls in cheerleading?"

A Waldgrave teenage boy on the team named Benjamin Thomas stood up for Makoto.

"Hey, Von Schroeder! Lita earned her place on the team fair and square!" Benjamin shouted.

Before he knew what hit him, Benjamin had been knocked flat to the ground.

"Nobody asked you, Geek!" Derek said to Benjamin.
