The Second Round

Hamtaro scurried to Boss and Oxnard, ready to begin.

"So," began Boss. "Have you decided yet?" Hamtaro nodded. He held up his left paw in which he was holding an old black shoelace.

"The second round will be... Tug o' War!" Hamtaro announced. Hamtaro went to a nearby puddle and wet the middle of the shoelace. He gave one end to boss and kept the other for himself.

"Ready to lose?" intimidated Boss. Hamtaro smiled sweetly.

"Nope," he replied smartly. The twoHam's readied themselves for Oxnard's word.

"On your marks," he started, "get set. Start!" Immediately the string wentflat as Boss and Hamtaro pulled both ends. The shoelace didn't move as Hamtaro and Boss tried their hardest to to get their opponent to fall. Sweat formed on their foreheads.

"Hey," grunted Boss. "You're pretty strong; for a runt."

"You are too," panted Hamtaro. "For an old guy." Boss smiled as he heard this.

"I guess I'll have to teach you to respect your elders, then." With an amazing burst of strength, Boss pulled his end with all of his might. Hamtaro's clawed feet beganto skid over the grass.

'Oh, no!' thought Hamtaro. 'I'm not gonna make it!' Hamtaro began to think of Bijou. 'No, I have to win; for Bijou!' With love enhanced power, Hamtaro began to pull back, shocking Oxnard and Boss.

"Stop!" Oxnard told them. They paid no heed to his words. They continued pulling when --

"Ugh!" Hamtaro and Boss lay sprawled on the ground, each holding a seperate piece of shoelace. Oxnard stood by the side, shaking his head.

"I told you guys," he commented."I declare this round a tie!" Hamtaro and Boss both jumped to their feet.

"Hey, I want a rematch!" exclaimed Boss.

"Me too!" added Hamtaro. Oxnard shook his head.

"You will; in the next round." Oxnard plopped himself onto the ground and bit into his sunflower seed. "If I remember correctly, it is Boss who chooses the next round." Boss looked surprised for a moment and then grinned mentally.

'Hamtaro, I swear; you will not win.'
