Dodge Ball

Middle School ~ Eight Grade

It was a simple day for the classes of Eight Grade.

Well it was simple till Gym.

Today was a special day, the Gym Teacher was dumped by her boyfriend.

That means she was trying to do something destruction, anything.

Dodge-Ball, most dangerous game a person can play in school.

The teacher stubbornly chose two people to be the Captains, Luka and a boy named Kuro.

Usopp sulked since he wanted to be Captain.

Luka just elbowed him, "If you were a Captain, we wouldn't be on the same team."

That was right, since Luka chose him first.

Each Captain started choosing other students.

Each side had eight on their team.

Kuro smirked, he loved his status as Captain.

Since he was Captain, he ordered his team to grab the balls before the other team.

They failed, and Kuro looked disappointed at his team.

Luka let the balls fly through the air, knocking some of the other students down.

Kuro's team picked up the balls and threw them back to the other team.

The one Kuro threw smacked Usopp across the face.

He smirked at his hit against the Longnose.

Usopp fell to the floor, rubbing his throbbing nose.

Luka gasped at her attacked team-mate and friend.

A ball flew through the air, directed to Luka.

It landed in her hands, causing the other team to lose a player.

Now it was only the captains left, Luka vs. Kuro.

Luka was the only one with a ball in her hand.

"This is for my nakama!" Luka yelled as the ball left her hand.

It flew across the gym.

Everyone was watching, everything was in slow motion.

The ball smacked against his snotty face.

He fell down, his butt hitting the floor.

"Luka's team WON!" whistled the Teacher, who been enjoying the match.

Luka cheered and lifted Usopp off his butt.

He was starting to tear up from her words.

I really should stop making Usopp the underdog and Luka towering over him, if I wasn't going for romance, this story will be a good start for envy and jealously.

From this day, Kuro always had a grudge against Usopp, causing him to take certain measures in High School.

Please review and suggest.
