Chapter 22
She jumped out of her parents car and dashed into the building. She ran down the halls and saw Katt.
"Calm down Krystal! They're in here." She opened the door to the hospital room where Fox and Falco lay on their hospital beds.
"Fox! Are you okay?! Why would you do something like this to me!? I'm gonna kill you when you get out of here for making me worry so much!" Fox laughed a little to himself and grabbed his girlfriend's hand "It's good to see you too".
It had been two weeks since he left Corneria, and just a day before today he and Falco received the same injury. "Okay ladies chill out, we saved some people from dying" The bird remarked, smirking. "Okay so we had to knock down a brick wall to do it, but it's better to have a small fracture in our arms than have lost a few lives." Fox said as he held his non fractured arm up for a fist bump.
"Ow, shouldn't have done that" Falco said after the bump.
Everyone in the hospital room laughed as the doctor came in. "Alright boys we've looked you over and you'll be fine, just make sure you don't put big pressure on your fractured arms and you'll be good to go and can leave in a few hours." "So can I have my pants back now? I can't say I'm comfortable not wearing any when my girlfriend is around" Fox said as Krystal blushed. The two teens got their clothes back and went home.
Finally it started warming up at the end of February. "Alright everyone! I think you'll like this one, today we're gonna do some four on four games of volleyball!" The eight teens sure did look excited about this. "Okay, guys vs girls I say" Fox whispered to the guys. They all nodded with mischievous grins.
The girls walked over to the guys and before they said anything Falco held up a hand and said "Sorry ladies, we've already got a team. And look at that, there's four of you already. Looks like we've got our matchup coach!" He yelled over. The coach threw them a volleyball and signaled for them to start.
Falco was the first to serve. "Whatever happened to ladies first?" Lucy yelled in a joking manner. Falco gave a fake laugh and served it, and botched it completely.
"Okay shut up, I had a fractured arm, would you give me a break?" He said in response to all of the girls laughing.
"Show us what you got little girl!" Fox yelled to his girlfriend. She smirked and blasted the ball right into his face. " Sorry sweetie, I forgot to tell you that I used to play volleyball back on Cerinia." She said cutely as she awaited the ball to be returned to her.
After a humiliating three points Krystal botched her serve, not as bad as Falco, but finally the guys got the ball back. "Okay we gotta do something, I have a plan" Bill told everyone, that plan failed completely
. "You know, you boys just got beat badly by a bunch of girls" Katt told everyone as they walked away from their area. The boys just mumbled to themselves not caring too much. "It's too early in the morning to have any of that." Slippy whispered among the guys in the locker room. The guys got out of their locker room before the girls, so they stood at the door awaiting the girls.
Fox stood with his back to the wall inside the gym, still waiting for Krystal. The others were standing in a small lobby area separate from the gym and were laughing, until someone came in, then they stopped laughing entirely.
"What are you doing here?" Falco asked. The person just kept walking without responding. He turned to the guys and said "This isn't going to be good."
Inside the gym Krystal had come out and joined Fox. They held each others hand and then the not so welcome person walked into the gym and stood seven feet away from the couple.
"Hmph, hi Fox" The visitor said.
'Great, just great' was all that came to the mind of Fox.
"Hi Fara"
I gotta say, it's good to be back after a few months hiatus
