Here's a brand new drabble for Milo Murphy and Friends! Anyway, enjoy!
It was a long winter day and, thanks to Murphy's Law, the doors to the school had been frozen shut. Of course, it didn't bother anyone that had after school activities, and Milo, Melissa and Zack were three of those people.
Melissa blew a whistle she was carrying around as Milo and Zack were wearing basketball jerseys and gym shorts as she yelled, "Okay, this is a one-on-one basketball match! First to score five points wins the match!"
Zack gave a nod as he turned to Milo. "Thanks for helping me out with my basketball skills, Milo."
"Hey, anything to help you get into the basketball spirit!" Milo said as Melissa threw the ball, which Zack caught.
Zack started to dribble the ball as he started to get to the other side of the court, Milo running after Zack. Milo then got in Zack's way as he was trying to get past him.
"Hey, Zack! I'm open! I'm trying to fake you out! I'm going to the left, going to the right, and..." Milo started talking fast as Zack tried to jump, but Milo caught the ball with his hands as he started to dribble. "And now I have the ball!"
"Oh no you don't, mister Bad Luck!" Zack laughed as he started chasing after his friend.
Melissa couldn't help but give a chuckle as she sat down, not too surprised to see Diogee sitting down in the stands. "Hey, Diogee."
Diogee gave a bark as she scratched his ears and giggled. "I'm surprised to see you got in, even if we are snowed in."
As Melissa scratched behind Diogee's ear, Diogee gave a happy smile as Milo threw the ball up at the net...
However, upon the ball going up in the air, one of the windows blew open as snow started to cover the net, causing the ball to hit it as snow fell down right on top of Milo. Milo shivered a bit as Zack ran over in concern. "You okay, Milo?"
"A little cold, but I think I can make it." Milo said, shaking the snow off. "Now, let's..."
As soon as Milo picked up the ball, he threw it up towards the net... and the ball slammed towards the glass and it broke, causing Milo and Zack to wince.
Melissa sighed as she walked over to the gym doors and called outside, "Nobody step in barefoot at the gym!"
Milo gave a sigh as he turned to the other net. "Looks like we're using the other net."
"Agreed." Zack said... before snatching the ball. "And I have the ball!"
"Oh you!" Milo said as he started chasing after Zack.
Melissa gave a laugh as she sat down next to Diogee and scratched his ears again. "So... how long do you think until that basketball net falls apart too, Diogee?"
Diogee gave a bark as Melissa shrugged.
"Fair point. I guess we'll have to wait and see where this goes." Melissa said as she continued watching the little game between her two friends, then sighed as she wrote down the scores. "Milo zero, Zack zero, Murphy's Law two. Hopefully, one of the boys wins against Murphy's Law... even if that law is winning."
And with that, I'll end this drabble here! What did you guys think? I am aware this is another short one, but drabbles are usually one hundred to a little over five hundred words, so at least I'm doing all right for the most part. Anyway, read, review, criticize and suggest, folks!
