No one had time to think. They just reacted. Duke followed Wildwing out of the room as the others helped Nosedive. Tanya grabbed her glass of water, leaned Nosedive's head back and washed out his eyes with the water. Mallory got more water as Grin cleaned up the mess on the table.

"Wildwing wait!"

"Why should I?" Wildwing barked as he stormed down the hall.


"There was no need in that!"

"Shut up, Duke!"

"Don't tell me to shut up!"

"Watch me!"

"Wildwing, wait," Duke pleaded.

"Why?! Just so you can scold me! He's pulled the wool over your eyes. Can't you see a prank when it's right in front of your face!"

"Wildwing calm down. I know what he was doing. I'm not THAT blind."

"Then why did you?"

"I wanted to see if you would do it," Duke smirked.

"Thanks a lot Duke," Wildwing said sarcastically. "I'd better go apologize. I didn't mean to get that stuff in his eyes."

"I guess you should, man you should have seen your face right before you almost drank it. I wish I had a camera," Duke laughed.

Wildwing and Duke walked back into the kitchen. "Very funny Duke, very" SPLAT!

Wildwing looked up in surprise. Someone had thrown mashed potatoes and gravy at him. Nosedive burst into laughter at the astonished look Wildwing gave.

"NOSEDIVE!"

"Tag your it!"

"NOSEDIVE!"

"You deserve it for getting that in my eyes!" Nosedive exclaimed as he pointed to the half empty glass on the table (or is it half full? Technically it is full. Half with liquid and the other half with air particles, but who's counting?)

Wildwing wiped the food from his face and glared at his younger brother. "Your dead," Wildwing said with a cocky smile and shaking his index finger at Nosedive. Nosedive and Wildwing chased each other around the table for several minutes. The others stood back and laughed with them. Wildwing cut Nosedive off, but Nosedive quickly spun around, knocked a chair down and ran away. Wildwing couldn't stop in time and tripped over the chair.

"Oww, Dive that was wrong."

"You were going to get me," Dive panted.

"That was the purpose of chasing you. You didn't have to throw the chair at me," Wildwing said as he limped around the room.

"Wildwing are you all right?" Tanya asked.

"I will be, no thanks to Dive."

"So this is now MY fault?!"

"Little friend, how do you propose we play hockey without our captain or goaltender?"

"I didn't mean to hurt him, Grin!"

"But you did."

"What about my eyes!"

"You can wash out your eyes, Nosedive. I can't replace a busted knee."

"I can't believe that you're blaming me for this!"

"Kid sit down."

"But"

"Just sit down."

Nosedive did as Duke said. Everyone sat quietly as Tanya looked at Wildwing's leg.

"AHHHH!"

Nosedive cringed when Wildwing cried out in pain.

"Tanya stop! That hurts!"

"Stop complaining, Wing," Mal said.

"It, AHHHH, hurts."

"Duke can you get me a bag of ice?" Tanya asked.

"What for?" Wildwing asked.

"To stop the swelling."

As Wildwing and Tanya argued about the ice, Duke filled a bag with the hard cold substance and brought it back to Tanya.

"No, I'm fine. I don't need any AHHHHHH!"

"There, now keep the ice on your knee and elevate your leg."
