Chapter 1
It all happened from a simple win… from a simple game of basketball. What could happen from winning a game? Lots.
It was another day of school. Chi woke up twenty minutes late for class, then realized it when she heard her alarm clock ring. Riiinggg!
"Holy crap! I'm freakin' twenty minutes late for class! Teacher's going to have my ass!" She exclaimed, changing her clothes, feeding her cat, and rushing out the door.
Five minutes later, she nearly knocked down the classroom door to find around twenty faces staring at her, including the teacher. She noticed that most of the girls were not into their seats.
"Um… can somebody please tell me what's going on?" She asked.
The teacher practically fell out of his seat, and at the same time, the headmistress came around the corner and said, "Miss Chi, although you certainly have a reputation for being a straight-A student, I strongly advise you to pay more attention to our school events. Is that point understood?"
Chi nodded.
"You idiot! You're playing it the game! God, all the girls from our all girls' team, the Valley Girls, are waiting for you in the locker room!" Ash Redfern laughed.
Ash Redfern was eighteen years old. He was gorgeous and lanky, with ash-blond hair and eyes that were shifting color from moment to moment. He was lazy, and usually spoke in a careless voice.
"Chi, go to the gym. You and the girls are playing against our rival school all girls' basketball team, the Black Roses. Alright?" The headmistress said gently.
Chi nodded again and ran to the locker room.
All the girls were already there and dressed. They gave Chi her uniform and they were set to play.
"That Chi. She'd make a great player, don't you think? You should see her. She does martial arts, karate, and judo, and I've heard that she got the highest level on them. Can you believe that?
I mean, Chi was always the quiet type. I bet she's as strong as a vampire. What do you think?" Skye Weapons asked his closest friend, Ash Redfern in the hallway on the way to the game.
"I say that we stalk and attack her. That's the only way we'll find out if she is really as strong as they say.
So what about it? Say tonight, alright?" Ash Redfern replied in a lazy and careless but firm voice.
"You're on," Skye replied, and they started betting on who would win the fight, Ash or Chi.
The game started as soon as Chi entered the court. She played the center position.
"Now players, positions! I want a fair game, all right? And no, absolutely no, catfights! Understood?" The referee said.
The respond was a loud chorus of "YES!" from both teams.
"Alright, fair game!" The referee practically shouted, and the game started as soon as the ball was jumped.
Forty-four minutes and fifty-five seconds later, with only five seconds left in the game, surrounded by all the players, Chi was throwing the three-point shot of her life.
She quickly gathered up all the strength she could muster, and threw.
Dinnnggg! The bell rang just as the ball went into the basket.
"And the game goes to Crystal Fountain High School's Valley Girls with the score of seventy-five to seventy-two!" The referee shouted.
It seemed as if the whole school was congratulating her. Constantly, a student or teacher would come up to her and say nice things to her.
When school was over, Chi tore down the hallway, ran home to feed Ginger, and then went to the park to relax.
