The Accident

"All right everyone!! Are you ready for the final game of this years Arizonia state volleyball tournament?? Welcome to the championship game!! Now this is going to be the most interesting match that we've ever seen. Let's welcome the first team...last years champions...the Sun Valley High Phantoms! And they're lead by Natasha Lee!"A group of girls emerged from the crowds. The Phantoms...what words should be used to describe them? Let's say ummm...tall...strong...scary...and about the best team to ever hit the courts. Now that is what you call competition. Natasha Lee was probably by far the best middle blocker the state has ever seen.

"And noooowww...let's welcome the school who has surprised us this season. Say hello to the one, the only, Phoneix Academy Spartans!! And they're lead by the little freshman, Isabella Swan!!" My team and I stepped out onto the court. Disregarding the fact that I was the smallest and youngest person on the team, they all respected me like I was a senior. Now, when I'm on the court, I'm a completely different girl. At school, I'm known as Klutzy Bella who can't walk on a flat surface without tripping on air. But here, on my home turf, I am the most graceful person to ever play. The court is my sanctuary. The ball is my only love. Welcome to my world.

The first game went by like a blur. We managed to pull out a win, 25-23. What a way to start the championship. Now if there had ever been two more evenly matched teams, let me know. Because I have never seen a team that can match ours. Sure, the Phantoms may be last years champions...but I wasn't in high school last year now was I? We split the second and third game. In the fourth game, we fought hard, but ended up losing. Match wise, we were tied, 2-2. I was walking around the locker rooms, about 2 hours before the final game.

"Come on Natasha. Don't you want to put that little freshman in her place?" I heard someone talking to Natasha. I slipped around the lockers, so there was a set of them between me and whoever was on the other side.

"Just take them! They'll help you beat the crap out of that little freak. Do you really want to end your high school career saying that a freshman beat you?" I looked over the top of the lockers. Natasha and some other girl were looking at a bottle of pills. 'Steroids!' I looked closer. Natasha Lee was written on the bottle. 'They're going to cheat their way to the top. Have to work fast.' I jumped over the top of the lockers, grabbed the bottle, and dashed out the door. I could hear them shouting,

"Hey! Get back here you stupid little girl!" But I couldn't...no wouldn't stop. I ran through the doors of the gym and my feet touched the court. 'Bye-bye klutzy Bella.' I ran up to my coach and showed him the bottle. His eyes widened and his jaw about hit the ground. He nodded and we both quickly walked up to the refs.

"Sir, I found Natasha in the locker rooms. She was about to take these." I handed the ref the bottle. "They're steriods." The silence in the gym was really unexpected. You could probably hear a pin drop...in the locker rooms it was so silent. "Is this true young lady?" Natasha had caught up to me...her head low. When she didn't reply, it was obvious it was true. She was ejected from the match, along with her friend from the lockers. It seemed like we would win this game hands down.

The game started and everyone, well everyone except the Phantoms, forgot about the incident. The game passed by before my eyes. We were up, 24-23. The fans were standing on their feet, cheering crazily. Pass, set, hit from their side. Our libero, Kathleen, put up a perfect pass. The setter, Jenny, gave me a perfect set. I knew that I would have a perfect hit. I jumped up and heard a, "Bella!! LOOK OUT!!" I averted my attention from the ball for a split second. I landed, on what I thought was the ground. It wasn't.

A ball had made its way beneath my feet. I crashed to the ground. Pain seared through my shoulder, back, and leg. I screamed in pain and fright. I can't even begin to describe the pain. The last thing I remember is darkness and people shouting and running towards me.

I woke up, what felt like days later, only to discover that I had pretty much split my back bone in half. My shoulder was completely shattered, along with the bone in my thigh. "Bella, I'm sorry. We had to go into surgery to fix your bones." I ignored that, "Can I still play volleyball?" The doctor looked at me like I was insane, "You're lucky to be walking. I'm afraid that you can never play again..." 'You can never play again...' The accident flashed through my mind, "Bella!! LOOK OUT!!" The pain came again. I woke up screaming.

"Bella, shhh, you're alright, shhh...I'm right here." Edward was right next to me. 'I hate flashbacks.' The doctors words rang through my head. 'You can never play again...never again...never...' Edward hummed my lullaby for a little while, waiting for me to calm down. "Another nightmare?" I nodded. "What was it about?" I looked into Edward's golden eyes. I knew he was only trying to help me. My eyes grew hard and cold, "My past."

Pretty bad accident right??? and you might be wondering whether or not her team won...welll...you'll have to wait to see!! R&R and let me know what you thought
