Chapter 36 – Roosevelt Third Quarter

Huey stepped back on the field for the kickoff at the beginning of the third quarter. Since his team had received the ball at the beginning of the game it was now his team's turn to kickoff. Having replaced Johnny with Jazmine they waited for the official to blow the whistle to start the quarter and then Jazmine moved with the rest of the team going with her. She booted the ball to Johnson down the field and Riley and Jason raced down the field both trying to be the first one to reach Johnson. Riley made it to Johnson first as Jason had to come across the field from the far side while he only had to run straight down. Johnson broke Riley's first tackle at the twenty eight yard line but Riley was able to get a hold of a leg as he fell stopping Johnson from trying to dodge Jason who ran him over.

Stacy wasted no time electing to forgo the huddle in an attempt to catch the Black Panthers off guard. Once again Ashley was lined up as a running back and Chad was out on the long side as a receiver. She ended her count and took the ball from her centre. Her eyes took in the full field at once and she saw Johnson covered by Riley and Chad running a hook route. Stacy through the ball down field to him when Chad hooked back toward the line of scrimmage and managed to get the inside route on smaller Cindy. Chad caught the ball but was brought down from behind by Cindy just short of the first down.

Faced with a second and inches Stacy took the ball from her centre and went to hand it off to Ashley, but she was not paying attention to her. Her attention was fully on Jason who was standing just behind his line with a feral grin and she knew he was staring at her under his amber visor. When Stacy tried to hand her the ball she expected Ashley to take the ball but it just hit off her chest and fell to the ground as her attention was completely and utterly on Jason who was breaking through line again.

When she realized Ashley had not grabbed the ball and that it had fallen in the snow, Stacy twisted and pounced on it just in time as Caesar and Jason came barrelling in diving for the ball themselves. When the official blew his whistle to call the play dead Stacy came up with the ball fuming.

"What the hell Ashley? What were you doing?" Stacy screamed at her running back.

"I don't know," Ashley said still watching Jason as he rejoined his team fist bumping Riley.

"You can't be afraid," Stacy said calming down. "He's not going to kill you.'

"You don't know that," Ashley said fearfully. "I want to go back on receiver."

"Fine for this play line up as the fourth receiver," Stacy said signalling their next play so they would not have to huddle.

She got the snap and looked down the field for Johnson who thanks to a couple of stutter steps had put some distance between him and Riley. She threw the ball down field hoping to connect with Johnson for a large gain and finally get some momentum going.

Ashley lined up as a receiver hoping to get away from Jason but when she began running he was suddenly appeared just behind her. "I'm coming," he hissed at her and she shivered. What was with this guy? Stacy had said he was a laid back and cool guy when she met him the other day and now he was terrorizing her like some lunatic.

When the ball went up and over their head, Jason suddenly put a burst of speed on and left Ashley behind heading for Riley and Johnson nearly fifteen yards down the field. There was no way he was catching up to them before the ball got there but if there was even a slim chance he could make the tackle if Johnson caught the ball and managed to get away from Riley then he would go all out.

Johnson did get the ball and did get away from Riley for another fifteen yards before Huey in the back field managed to haul him down. All and all the catch was nearly a forty yard play and put the revolvers within easy field goal range.

Once again Stacy went to the air to gain yards connecting with Chad just beyond the first down marker. Another quick pass moved them within easy striking distance of the end zone.

"I'm going to hand the ball off to you this time," Stacy said to Ashley in the huddle.

"No throw it again," Ashley said fearfully shaking her head.

"I can't their getting used to our passing game. I have to mix it up a bit," Stacy said. "Just run like we all know you can run."

Ashley took a deep breath and nodded but there was still a little shaking in her knees. When Stacy broke the huddle she lined up behind her and took the ball when Stacy handed it to her. She saw him stalking her as she cut to the short side skirting her line but she pushed forward determined to beat her fear. When she cut forward at the end of the line he was waiting and he grabbed her again ripping her to the ground. She hit the frozen ground hard but when she gave herself a moment to think about it, it did not hurt as much as she thought it did. Her breath was still knocked from her lungs and the ground still hurt but the actual hit was no harder than most hits. It was just the speed that the hit came in with that shocked her system.

"You alright?" Stacy asked offering her running back her hand.

"Actually I'm good," Ashley smiled taking the offered hand and allowing Stacy to help pull her to her feet out of the snow.

"Good because I need you to run the ball again," Stacy said as they lined up quickly.

Ashley accepted the hand off again and went straight for a gap in the line knowing full well Jason was stalking her. She broke through the line to see him coming from her right. With a stutter step she messed up his timing and with a spin she broke his off balance tackle gaining six yards before Jason was able to right himself and catch up to her. He was faster than her, much faster and it would take all the skills she knew to just gain a few yards and advance the ball for Stacy.

"I can do this," Ashley said rejoining her team as they moved up to the new line of scrimmage.

"Finally," Stacy smiled. "But we're going to Johnson on this one. I need a touchdown."

"Then get him the ball," Ashley said. "I'm over my fear. Just call when we need me to run and I'll run."

"That's what I want to hear," Stacy smiled signalling for a Post Corner Read as the team got into a shotgun formation.

On the other side of the line Huey grabbed Riley while they were setting up for the next play. "They're going to throw to Johnson this time. We can't let him get the ball."

"How do ya know dey're gonna throw to dat nigga?" Riley asked his brother watching Johnson as they lined up.

"I know this because they need a touchdown soon and he is the only one consistently catching anything. Jason has their running game locked down and Caesar and Hiro had Stacy's rushing game sealed while Cindy and Johnny are holding her own against the other receivers. Just trust me on this and make sure he doesn't get the ball to the end zone," Huey said leaving Riley where he was lining up as a corner to get to his own position as the free safety near the offensive lineman he had playing as the other safety to keep Jazmine off the field. Having such a slow player a lineman playing a position such as safety was a disadvantage to his defence but so far he had not had to worry about it thanks to the skill of his other players.

Behind her centre Stacy ended her count and received the ball dropping back as Hiro and Caesar tried to break through her defence. She watched Johnson run his route and as he got to the goal line he suddenly hooked back while Riley expecting him to keep going into the end zone shot passed him scrambling and sliding on the icy snow to try and turn around before Johnson got too far away. With the distance established with all her strength and skill Stacy hurled the ball down the field like a bullet. By the time the ball connected with Johnson three yards away from the end zone he had Riley practically hanging off him trying to swat the ball away, but he still brought it in to his chest. With a sudden explosion of strength Johnson with Riley hanging off his back made a push for the end zone. On the one yard line Huey caught up and tried to bring Johnson down, but the Revolver's star receiver fell forward into the end zone for his second touchdown to make the score 17-16 with the extra point.

Lying on the fresh snow covered end zone the only place on the field where the snow did not show the wear and tear of the game Johnson spread out his limbs and made a snow angel in the fresh snow.

"I told you to make sure he didn't get the ball," Huey said to Riley as they readied for the kick off.

"I tried but I didn't expect da nigga to hook at da goal line," Riley explained. "And den I slipped in da snow."

"Well we need to get it back and I expect you to make up for your mistakes Riley," Huey said as the kicker raised his hand to signal he was about to kick the ball. In a change in formation Huey decided to hang back with Riley and Jason to return the ball. He had no plans to actually carry the ball himself but he planned to help them gain a few more yards by blocking Rico.

"Nigga I need to make up for it. I can't let dat nigga steal mah thunder," Riley replied as the kicker booted the ball toward him. Riley caught the ball and took it up field while Huey blocked Rico for him allowing him to go uninterrupted until he hit the wall where he bounced off Caesar rolling around the Brooklyn native and in behind the wall where he got ten more yards thanks to a block by Hiro before Zana and a another player from the special teams brought him down at the Black Panthers' fifty two yard line.

"That's what I want to see Riley," Huey said clasping his brother on the shoulder as they came together in the huddle. "Now let's see if the rest of us can duplicate it."

"Give us the ball then," Jason said. "It's about time I get in on the offensive side of this game.

"I think so too," Huey said breaking the huddle.

Huey took the ball from Caesar and dropping back lobbed the ball down the field to Jason who was being covered by a defensive end. Rico was busy covering Cindy and Zana was covering Johnny on the far side of the field. Without any real challenge from the defensive end Jason reached up and caught the ball without breaking stride and gained nearly twenty five yards on the play before he was brought down by the defensive end and the free safety.

On his next play Huey connected with Johnny for eleven yards and then Riley got passed Zana for the first time in several plays for another decent gain of fifteen yards. Huey ran into a wall on the next three plays as Rico lined up as the middle linebacker seemed to be predicting his plays and managed to block either Jason or Cindy when he tried to pass to either of them. Too far away from the first down he was forced to call Jazmine in again and she hit another long field goal to give them back the lead at 19-17.

Stacy did not hit that wall on her next drive and after several passes to both Chad and Johnson she drove the ball done the field coming to within the last ten yards of the Black Panther end. On her first play with in the last ten yards of the field she tried to rush the ball herself. When no pass was open to her she decided for the first time in a while to rush the ball. It was not a good idea as she got to the line of scrimmage only to find Caesar standing in front of her. Caesar hit her like a ton of bricks and pushed her back two yards beyond the line of scrimmage.

"Jeez Caesar do you have to hit me so hard every single god damn time," Stacy said as Caesar scrambled over her. On his feet he howled to the sky and his linemen returned the howl. The howl just set Stacy off as she jumped to her feet and got in his face. "What the hell? You're such an ass Michael Caesar! Why do you always have to do that to me?"

"Its football I'm supposed to hit you," Caesar said. "It's my job."

"I hate you!" Stacy sneered stomping off to her team leaving Caesar standing there by himself.

"Suck it up nigga," Riley snickered at him slapping his shoulder as he passed.

"She'll come around Ceez, she always does," Cindy said standing beside the Brooklyn native. "Just get through this and once everything settles she'll see straight...maybe."

"White girls," Huey said from his other said shaking his head.

"Thank a lot," Caesar said sarcastically. "Just get lined up before they snap the ball." He lined up again as a defensive tackle and when Stacy got the ball he charged at her again. Before he could get to her she tossed the ball sideways to Ashley who was once again being stalked by Jason. Caesar pulled up at the last minute not wanting to get the penalty for roughing the passer and make Stacy even madder.

Thanks to a block from her tight end, Ashley got around Jason and was heading to the end zone for her first touchdown of the game. Unfortunately for her Jason would not be denied his prey and as the apex predator he was he tracked her down and ripped her to the ground at the one yard line grabbing her around the upper arms so she could not stick the ball out for the touchdown.

On the one yard line Stacy called for a PA Flood and when the ball was snapped Ashley moved to provide a block on Hiro while she looked for Johnson but both Huey and Riley were on him. With Caesar and Jason about to break through the line she spotted Chad out of the corner of his eye with only Cindy on him. With no time left to make decisions as Caesar and Jason got through the line she threw the ball up through the uprights at the second receiver who was running across the end zone. Chad jumped outstretching his entire body to grab the ball. The force of him hitting the frozen ground popped the ball out of his hands but by luck he had kicked his leg up and the ball hit off his foot and came back to the front where he grabbed it against his helmet for the 23-19 lead.

They lined up for the PAT and when the Revolver centre hiked the ball back to Stacy who placed it down for her kick Jason and Caesar got through again riding their momentum for the last play. After seeing what the two had done to his team all game the kicker hesitated and mistimed his kick and the ball hit the upright falling back into play. Stacy fumed off to the side not saying anything to her kicker who she could see was already beating himself up. If she said anything it could hurt his psyche and he might miss more important points later in the game.

Riley got the kickoff again and but only made it twenty three yards before Rico got a hold of him.

Huey decided it was time to pull off one big play and sent Jason in motion across the backfield while Cindy and Johnny buffered the line to give him more time. He waited out the defence until they were practically on him before hurling the ball down the field looking for Jason who was being covered by Rico and the free safety. The ball sailed through the air in a perfect spiral and as it came to Jason suddenly cut in on Rico and the free safety. He reached out with one hand as he ran toward the middle of the field. Catching the ball with one hand he brought it in while reversing direction and spinning broke Rico's tackle and gained another three yards before the free safety got him. All in all his had gained nearly sixty yards on the play and was now in field goal range as the clock was winding down the last minute of play.

"Mah nigga where da hell did dat come from," Riley said nearly jumping into Jason. "Dat was some real shit right dere."

"Meh it was nothing," Jason said. "This ball is a lot smaller then the ball we use in Canada gripping it with one hand is easier."

"He really is a monster isn't he," Rico said to his sister as they set up for the next play the clock still running.

"We made a mistake leaving him alone for so long," Zana agreed.

"I don't think it would make a difference," Rico shook his head. "We'll have to do our best to try and contain him even if it means giving up the short passes. Johnny too, he's been quiet so far but if we let up on him just once he'll make us pay dearly."

"It's too much Jason, Johnny, Riley, Huey, and Cindy. We can't handle this much. No team should have an offence this stacked," Zana complained as Huey began his count.

"We'll just have to do our best and hope Stacy can keep her offensive momentum going," Rico said before Huey finished his count and he ran after Jason. This time Huey went tried to hand it off to Riley but Zana got him after four yards. He was slowly gaining ground of the twins and soon he would be running wild now that they had to stretch out their defence to counter both Jason and Riley's games.

With thirty seconds left Huey tried to rush the ball but with no route up the field he just ran into the wall hoping to get at least one yard before the end of the quarter. Surprisingly the line kind of gave way before him and he slipped through beside Caesar gaining two yards before a line men reach back and brought him down.

Getting back to his feet Huey looked up at the clock. It was too late to try for another play so he let the clock run its final seconds and joined his team on the bench while all the on field personnel switched side for the last quarter.


Huey and the Black Panthers are behind 23-19. Does Huey have anything in the secret playbook in his head to regain the lead with only one quarter left? How will Riley match Johnson's last celebration? Will Stacy forgive Caesar? Look forward to the next chapter 'Secrets revealed' soon.
