Chapter 12
I awoke the next morning to a well, bit of a shock. You will never believe what the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes. Or maybe I should say who. My eyes came open and at first I was blinded by the light hitting my face through the window. My eyes ajusted quickly though and I saw a figure standing over my bed. Of course I did what any sane person would do in the situation. I moved to push them away. Then I saw who it was, Katie. Or this morning I felt more like calling her Hperactive Barbie, because she had a huge smile on her face and was bounceing or jittering really up and down. She had been waiting for me to wake up.
"Max.", she sqealed. "You know what today is?", she asked her eyes widening. I rubbed the sleep fro my eyes.
"Uh, Sunday.", I mumbled. She squealed, again.
"Yeah, which means that tommarrow is the begining of the games week. We have to get our team togather and sign up. I'll go over everything with you. Today I am coaching you on everything you need to know.", she stated. I wanted to roll over then and burry my face into the pillow and moan. Instead though I got up to get dress. This was just going to be another long day isn't it?
Later that day I learned of all the rules of the copetiotions. I'll break them down.
1. 10 people to a team.
2. Each team has a capitan and a co captian. (Me and Katie)
3. All students on your team must be in grades 9 - 10. Younger grades are the cheering section for the teams. This left out Ange, Gaz, and Nudge. Sorry guys.
4. Any form of cheating found the team will be disqualified and severly punished.
The games schedual went like this.
Monday- Race day. The teams will be expected to run a track and the teammates will be scored on their times.
The rest of the weeks games were still unknow. Yet according to Katie they do the same thing every year for the final game against the remaining teams.
I had asked her what this was but she said it was a suprise and was tight lipped about it.
All day Katie and I went around putting our team togather. This is the people on the team.
1. Max (capitan)
2. Katie (co capitan)
3. Nick
4. Andrew
5. David
6. Cleo
7. Jeff
8. Emily
9. Gram
10. Kevin
The day went by in a blur for me though. My thoughts always shifted. Weather it be when I looked down at the list and read the third person mentioned or when Katie brought up said person along with a tinge of jealousy from me. Eventually I did get throught the day though and waited intenly for the next day. Or I guess as I remembered David calling it, the begining of the war zone era.
