Battling Bands… of Love?
Ch.8
Raiyne got out of the shower and wrapped a towel firmly around her lean and slender body. She grabbed a brush and walked out of the bathroom. She went into her closet and quickly changed into some simple clothes, a red t-shirt and black shorts, to go to her lacrosse try-outs. She came out of her room brushing her hair. "Sango! Ready yet!" bellowed Raiyne. Sango quickly came out of her room and rushed towards her best friend. She was dressed in the same outfit as Raiyne. "Where are the guys?" asked Sango, huffing. Raiyne shrugged. Raiyne knocked on Inuyasha's door. "Ready yet?" Inuyasha came out. "Yeah." He was wearing a blue shirt and white and blue shorts. Miroku and Kouga came out, they also were wearing simple clothing.
They went downstairs and Raiyne yelled, "Dad! We're going to the try-outs! We'll be back after lunch." "Ok Raiyne! Good luck you guys… and girls!" The group of five went into Sango's car and they raced to the arena.
They gathered their bags and entered the arena. Raiyne waved to the coach, who walked up to them. "Hey coach!" "Hello Raiyne, Sango. Who's this?" Sango turned and introduced the three guys. "This is Inuyasha, Kouga and Miroku. They want to try out also." The coach eyed them. "Great!" They followed the coach to the change rooms. "Here you are! Hurry up though." The girls and guys hustled with their pads. Raiyne braided her hair while Sango tied her hair into a low ponytail so that she could put her helmet on.
Inuyasha and Kouga came out first, followed by Sango and Raiyne. Last but not least Miroku, who was panting. "Finally Miroku. We could have missed the try-out if you took any longer!" scolded Inuyasha. They headed towards the arena filled with players who were in the championship team and new players who want to join the team. "Ok, everyone gather around. Today, were just going to play a game. Please thank Raiyne and Sango for volunteering to be captains," said the coach. Raiyne just stood there with shock while Sango was stuttering, "B-B-But…" Inuyasha and Kouga pushed the two shocked girls to the front and the former champion team cheered. "We'll flip a coin. Sango you get the choice," said the coach. "Tails." The coach flipped the coin and called, "Heads. Raiyne what do you want?" "Umm… I'll pick first." She peered at all of the players and grinned. "I pick Inuyasha." Sango picked. "I pick Miroku…" After a while, each team had around 15 players. "Raiyne! Pass!" Raiyne passed the ball before she got checked to the board.
After the Game Try-out
"Phew! That was a nice game!" exclaimed Sango. Raiyne patted her on the shoulder. "Yeah! Especially for us. We kicked your sorry butts!" "So what! It was only you and Inuyasha who were on that sticking team! You guys are total show-offs!" said Sango. Inuyasha turned around with his bag and said, "Thanks for the compliment." Sango sighed in total defeat.Inuyasha and Raiyne laughed.
