"Okay so it's four against three, but I'm still not sure how Kid, Liz, and Patty took down Maka's dad, Ms. Marie, and Stein."
"I'm pretty sure my dad dragged them down."
"Well, like father like daughter," Soul mumbled. "Anyway, we know that Liz serves, Kid saves the ball when you think it's out, and then Patty spikes it which ends up making a dent in the ground. After that move, the other team usually surrenders, so we can't let them get to that move."
"That'll never happen! You guys have me on your team and as long as we don't let Maka serve we should be fine!" Black*Star said.
"Normally I'd hit you," Maka told him.
"But we all know it's true," Soul said. "Now, let's play some volley ball!"
Soul, Maka, Black*Star, and Tsubaki spread out on their side of the net as Kid, Liz, and Patty prepare on their side. Kid's team had the first serve. Patty threw the ball up in the air and slammed it to the other side.
The ball hit the ground and bounced back up at an incredible speed. It headed straight back toward another player.
"Maka look out!" Soul yelled.
Sadly, Maka couldn't react in enough time. The volley ball smacked the side of her face and she fell to the ground. Soul and Black*Star helped Maka off of the ground and Tsubaki provided her friend with ice.
"Well, this does qualify as an injury," Tsubaki said. "She can sit out."
Soul smiled. "Good news Maka! You don't need to serve any more!"
*.*.*.
A/N: Something very similar happened to me. The only difference was that a senior at my school kicked the ball and it hit me in the face (she was a soccer player by the way). At least I got to sit out for the rest of class!
