Blake's Moemon Adventure: Chronicles of Truth

Chapter 49


"So, judge, what do you think of Athena's odds at bat?" Hughes asked, frowning. He, Caitlin, and Elesa were sitting at a judge panel, watching a baseball game played in an enormous field within Hughes' house.

"…Well, I'm certain she'll give it her best." Caitlin answered, smiling.

"Wait, how did we get here?" Blake asked, frowning.

Flashback

"I give up…" Kira panted. "Please… I need a break…" She had managed to break through the steel rope chains, and was completely exhausted.

"Sure, let's give you arm a break." Shana said, cracking her knuckles.

"Wait, let me do it…" Tara said, blushing, drooling a little.

"You're like a dog in heat…" Shana said, frowning.

"Come on, helplessness is really hot!" Tara said, blushing.

"Okay, whatever." Shana said, frowning. "It's still pretty creepy. Don't come near me, okay?"

"Hey, come on, Shana! Don't be mean!" Tara said, frowning.

"Come on, guys, give her a break." Blake said, frowning. "I don't want you guys to kill her with her training."

"Thank you, master!" Kira said, running over to Blake, hugging him, tears falling down her face.

"Don't worry, it's fine." Blake said, smiling.

"Anyways, time for the second part of training!" Shana said, frowning, Kira freaking out.

"Wh-what is it?" Kira asked, frowning.

"Baseball." Shana said, frowning.

"Base… ball?" Kira asked, confused.

"Indeed." Shana said, nodding. "Baseball."

"What's baseball?" Tara asked, confused.

"Right, you were talking to Nancy." Shana said, nodding. "See, while you were talking with her, we all watched the movie 'Field of Dreams' last night."

"That's a baseball?" Tara asked, frowning.

"…Sure." Shana said, nodding. "Fine, that's a baseball. See, this is how it works. Baseball is a sport played by nine people on each team. So we need to set up teams."

"We're all with master." Mini, Shina, Lara, and Aria said at once, hugging Blake.

"…Right." Shana said, nodding. "And so do we. Kira, you do as well, yes?"

"Yes." Kira said, nodding. "I want to fight on master's side. I don't care what you say."

"That's good." Shana said, nodding. "I'm sure you wanted to fight for him anyway. Now, we just need one more."

Shana turned to Athena, frowning.

"You, sword girl, do you want to play baseball?" Shana asked, frowning.

"You address me as 'sword girl' and wish to ask me to play a 'game' with you?" Athena said, frowning.

"Afraid you won't be able to win?" Shana asked, smirking.

"Ridiculous." Athena said, frowning. "My power is more than a match for a simple children's game."

"Well okay then, I guess we've got a team." Shana said, smirking.

"Okay, you guys will be the opposing team." Shana said, waving her sword at Willow and the others. "Specifically speaking, Boobs, Propeller, Four Eyes, Sword Girl 2, Sword Girl 3, Shy Girl, Tattoo, Green Top, and Willow."

"Wait, which one am I?" Bianca asked, confused.

"…I would guess boobs." Cheren said, pushing his glasses up his face.

"At least they gave me a name." Willow said, shrugging.

"Is my only defining characteristic my tattoo?" Dawn asked, frowning. "I didn't even want this thing."

"Deal with it." Shana said, frowning. "Anyways, I'll be team captain for Blake's team, you guys can do whatever the heck you want, I don't really care."

Shana turned back to Blake's moemon.

"Listen, guys, we need to come up with a game plan." Shana said, frowning. "The game is tomorrow. I want you all to learn how to play baseball, by that time, got it? I don't want to lose."

Flashback End

"Ah, that's right." Blake said, nodding. "That's how this happened."

"Well, it's a wonderful day today…" Caitlin said, yawning. "Nice and warm… makes me wanna nap…"

"Sorry, but you have to stay awake." Hughes said, smiling.

"Don't wanna…" Caitlin yawned.

"Well, it seems like Athena is the first one up to bat for the 'Blake's Moemon Team'." Elesa said, smiling. "How will the 'Random Assembly of Side Characters Team' counter?"

"Hey, that wasn't our team name!" Willow, the pitcher, said, frowning.

"Okay, sure." Elesa said, shrugging.

"You know, Athena, I'm surprised that you're willing to wear the uniform." Blake said, gesturing to the black jersey and white shorts.

"All human clothing is equally repulsive to me." Athena said, frowning. "What I wear is meaningless then."

"Okay, got it." Blake said, nodding.

"Well now, she's up at bat, and here comes the pitch!" Hughes said, smiling.

Willow threw a ball at top speed towards Athena, the ball shooting past her as she never even moved in an effort to hit it.

"Athena, hit the ball with the bat!" Blake advised.

"Ah. Understood." Athena said, nodding. Willow threw another pitch at her, this time Athena focusing on the ball.

"Simple." Athena said, swinging the wood bat as if it were her sword. The bat struck the ball, and sliced through it as though she had sliced butter with a sword.

"…" Everyone said, staring at the bisected ball in half.

"Um, what do we do now?" Blake asked, frowning.

"Well, we need a ruling." Willow said, turning to Hughes.

"Yes, well, it turns out that this is an obvious foul." Hughes said, frowning.

"What's a foul?" Athena asked, frowning.

"It means you broke the rules." Blake said, frowning.

"I see." Athena said, nodding.

"Well now, we'll have to ask the head judge for a ruling." Hughes said, turning to Caitlin. "Caitlin, what do you think?"

"…" Caitlin said, deep in thought, her eyes shining with excitement. "…I'll allow it."

"What?" Hughes asked, shocked. "But that is totally outside of the rules of baseball!"

"…Baseball?" Caitlin asked, confused. "What does this have to do with baseball?"


Ah, nice to see a judge who has no idea what they are doing.
