"55...56...57...58...59...60!"
Lynn struggled her way through forty more pushups as she soaked hers and Lucy's carpet with her sweat. The girl had been at it training for next Friday's game but as you can probably tell, she's been overdoing it...just a little bit "90! 91...92...93...94...95...96...97...98...99...one hundre-"
The girl let herself fall to the ground she was breathing heavily and sweating perfusely and it was only 12:30! She tried to lift herself up to at least climb into her bed but her limbs felt like toothpaste, instead she let fatigue overtake her as she drifted off.
"No..i can't "pant" be sleeping "pant" "pant" I need to...practice my swing..."

"STRIKE ONE!" a make voice sounds through the darkness.
The sound of a ball hitting a glove then becomes audible.
"STEERIKE TWO!"
Finally the darkness fades, it's Lynn standing at home plate with two strikes and two outs, it's the final inning...its all on her. The girl narrows her eyes at her final shot and swings her bat.

"CRACK!"

The ball went sailing through the field and Lynn took this as her queue to bolt around the diamond and save her team. She darted past first base and was going to blow past second when she stopoed, she couldn't move. Not only did she stop but everything around her stopped too everything accept for her opponents. The girl looked down and tried to pull at her leg to move but she couldnt, finally a black ooze rose up from the ground and grabbed hold of her. Lynn watched in horror as her opponents grabbed the ball from a nearby grass patch and tossed it around before hitting her hard in the arm with it.

"OUT!"

Lynn's heart dropped, as she was being consumed by the black ooze she watched as her team and family stared..no..glared at her with hateful eyes. The ooze had consumed all but her eyes now and before everything was black, she heard it.

"You're not good enough. You never were. You never will be. You. Are. Weak."

"PhAAHHH- -" Lynn shot up in her bed panting heavily and moving all her limbs around just to make sure she wasn't actually paralyzed before she realized:
"Wait..howd I get in my bed?"
The athlete thought to herself looking at the damp spit where she was lying not too long ago, Lynn pulled out her smartphone taking a quick look at it.

"4:34 huh..mustve been out a while ugh whatever maybe ..ow nope nevermind."
Lynn thought to herself as she stretched her muscles now realizing how much they ached as she moved them.
"Guess theres always tomorrow."
The girl swung her heavy legs off the side of the bed and set her feet to the floor.
"The spirits said you're not okay."

"GAHH!-Ouch! C'mon Lucy don't scare me like that!"
Lynn instinctively lurched backwards earning some pain from her shoulders.
"Again..it is but my nature."
With the same devious smile.
"Yeah yeah I'm sure it is anyways do you know how i got back In my bed?"

" The power of the spirits say you're not alright-"

"I'm fine." Lynn cut her little sister off "and answer the question geez."

"Sigh..denial..luna put you in your bed and helped me clean up your gross sweat from the carpet..it was gross..thank us."

"Sigh" well thanks then queen gloom now if you'll excuse me.." Lynn said while standing up from her bed
"..i gotta thank Luna and get back to woOuCh!"
The athlete stumbled to the ground gripping her calves.
"Lynn..seriously are you alright?"
Lucy asked with an actual emotion in her voice
"Listen luce I've had every injury in the book this is rrAgt n-nothing."
The girl forced herself up and out the door. She may have overdone it a little bit but what was just a little too much work gonna hurt?

Lynn knew Luna was in when she heard the sound of her guitar echoing throughout the house, the girl dragged herself down the hall in an attempt at walking and quickly out up a phsocial front so that Luna wouldn't ask if she was okay or any of that junk and threw open the door.
