Teaching The Wave Motion Swing
"Okay, Mrs. Daidoji," the other girls sighed. "See you later, Mao."
"See you later, everyone." Mao said.
A few days later, Zia was getting pretty good at her stand-in catcher's role on the team, though Shinsaku Kido had a crazy idea up his sleeve.
"Hey," Shinsaku called. "Hotta!"
Koharu hit a baseball to Yoko, "Yes, Coach?" she asked.
"Come here for a moment." Shinsaku said to Koharu.
Koharu handed the bat off to Izumi so that Izumi could help Yoko practice fielding while she went to see what the coach wanted.
"What is it, Coach?" Koharu asked.
"I would like you to teach Anderson how to do your Wave Motion Swing after school is over." Coach Kido said to Koharu.
"No problem." Koharu said to Shinsaku.
After school let out for the day, Zia met Koharu on the baseball diamond.
"Why did you want to see me, Koharu?" Zia asked.
"To put it simply, Zia," Koharu said. "Coach wants me to teach you how to do my Wave Motion Swing, just in case I should need someone more experienced than Nene to fill in for me."
"I'm ready," Zia said to Koharu. "what does it take to learn the Wave Motion Swing?"
"It takes dedication, focus, determination, and defiance, the same exact things that it takes to learn how to throw my sister's Lightning Ball." Koharu explained to Zia.
"Dedication, focus, determination, and defiance," Zia repeated. "got it, Koharu."
At first, Zia couldn't master the Wave Motion Swing, but by the time of dusk, she did Koharu's swing perfectly.
"Nicely done, Zia!" Koharu exclaimed, she was proud.
