"What's next, Terry?" Furrball called out.
"Not bad, bro." Terry commented. "You got two more courses to do. And here comes one right now!" Next, up came a large ball thrower and it was shooting dodgeballs everywhere it looks. "In this one, you're gonna practice prediction. The dodgeball thrower will flash a target on where it's going to throw. Your objective is to dodge the balls while being careful about the next shot. This machine will go faster as you keep dodging. Good luck, you'll need it."
Suddenly, the machine began to rumble and it started throwing a dodgeball in front of Furrball. He dodged to the right, but then another target started to flash on where he was going to land and he spun to the left. At the end of the spin, there came another, then another, and then another! This made Furrball's feet start to go in a marathon level and dodged one after the other.
As twenty dodgeballs were rapidly thrown, Furrball had to jump and spin past each and every one. His eyes were getting a bit dizzy as this kept up, but he had to remain on his current objective. When the last one came however, it was close; the ball was going down the middle and the little blue cat did something that no one expected. He did the matrix dodge and he reached out his hands and caught the ball before it flew past him. He remained there for a while before he his tired legs gave and fell on his back with the dodgeball bouncing off of his head.
"OK, man. One final round." Terry pressed a few more buttons to bring up a few tetherball poles. The balls were spinning quite fast and the force looked strong. "This time, you gotta show me that you're ready to become a man. No time for running away in this joint. All you gotta do is show those tetherballs who's in charge. So, go in there and bash them out of the way!"
Terry knew about the times that her little brother has been chased and bullied around alot, so now, Furrball's got to prove that he's not a personal punching bag anymore. With rage and confidence burning in his eyes, he ran as fast as he could to the first tetherball and clashed in with
its force. The tetherball began pushing the little blue cat back, but he's not giving up.
Finally, with enough power, he bashed the ball out of the way and charged at the rest. Furrball was rapidly bashing them back and forth until all five tetherballs stopped spinning and reached the end of their ropes.
As Furrball sat down to catch his breath, Terry came to him and patted her little brother on the back. "Good job, man. I knew you could do it."
Furrball smiled back and hugged her real tight, "Thanks. I really needed it. But, do you really think I WILL become a man?"
Terry smiled and said, "Trust me. I know in your heart that you're really growing up. Don't worry about what you were in the past, now you'll show them who's the boss. Also, keep in mind that the entire environment is your advantage. Sometimes if you're really good at something, you can use those skills in day to day life. Don't worry about it, man. If you really need me, I'll be there." Furrball looked at his sister a little scared at first, but he smiled knowing that Terry's right.
