"Alright, alright, everyone for tug-a-war line up evenly" The gym teacher called from the other end of the gym, silently counting each of the team members to make sure the odds are even, "Meenah! If you cross the line one more time your team is disqualified!"
You hear the groan of her teammates, "'Aight 'aight I'm backin' up," Meenah spits out.
You vaguely see the gym teacher roll her eyes before counting out, "1, 2, 3, Pull!"
Both teams seem evenly matched, but the kids at the ends of the rope, both having the rope wrapped securely around their waists running with all their might, are the ones that really count the most, once one tires out, the other team is sure to win. Surely enough that's what happened when Meenah is cheering and gloating that her team is "The strongest of all y'all!".
Your attention to the game is cut-off by Latula's loud laugh "That girl sure does love to win, don't she?"
"Yeah, I'll agree with that" you say with a small chuckle.
"Alright, so you ready to kick some Makara-Captor butt today?!"
"You know it! They're goin' down!" you call out trying to appear tough and manly but fail miserably, causing you and Latula to go into a fit of giggles.
Both you and Latula laugh until your sides hurt. Once you both cease your excessive laughter you watch the cheer teams perform their, not gonna lie, rushed routines. But you gotta admit, it isn't as bad as you thought it would be for what, 2, 3 days of practice? The music isn't half bad, has a nice beat you guess, kinda tacky for your taste though.
Once all the cheer teams finish, it's time for the three-legged race, so everyone is led outside and no you are definitely not nervous, nope not one bit, who's nervous? Not you, that's for sure.
A parent helper comes around and ties a piece of cloth securely around your legs, as she did for all the other students.
You look over at Kurloz and he gestures that really over-used kinda-really stupid thing for 'your going down' you see in really lame movies. And you really don't think it had the reaction he wanted cuz all you did was laugh because, oh my gosh that was so lame.
You stop laughing once the gym teacher begins to explain rules that everyone already knows and isn't very necessary but they have to do it anyways for everyone's 'safety'.
Everyone lines up, at a ready stance and eagerly waits for the whistle to sound. Sure enough it did, and you all were off.
"Left, right, left, right" you and Latula mutter in unison. Your doing good, you got this. You look up to see the boys are a bit ahead of you. "Latula their ahead of us, let's speed up."
"You got it!"
The pair of you gradually increase speed, and hey! You're catch up the them, you could totally win this all you have to do is focus, which happens to be something you aren't doing at this given moment.

"We're almost at the finish line Mituna! We got this in the bag!" you say victoriously, "I wonder how far back the girls are," you glance back only the see they fell, oh my god Meulin's hurt. You halt immediately in your tracks and hurriedly untie the cloth.
"What are you doing we almost won?!" Mituna asks confused, but he didn't need an answer once he sees what you are running to, he sprints over as well.
Okay, okay, Meulin's crying and her shin and arm is bleeding. You pick her up piggy-back style and run her to the nurse, despite the calls from teachers and helpers to stop. Why would you stop when Meulin's hurt, she needs help and you aren't gonna just let her hurt.
You get to the nurses office in no time at all, laying Meulin down on the cot. Moments later Mituna carries Latula in, you see her knee and elbow is scrapped, but not to badly. He sets her down on the cot next to Meulin's.
"You know I could have walked myself to the nurses office," Latula comments, "but thanks 'Tuna, you're the best."
"You know I'd do anything for you 'Tula!" he returns with a huge smile.
"Oh my, what happened here? Field day accident?" asked the nurse as she walked in with her lunch, "well let me see," walking over to examine Meulin and Latula, "this isn't too gruesome, I'll get you both fixed up in a jiffy!" with that she walks over to a cabinet, taking out bandages and cleaners, then going back to the girls to clean and wrap their wounds, "and all done! Thank you boys for bringing these two in, the cut would have gotten infected with all the dirt in them! Lollipop anyone?"
You all nod and she hands each of you lollipops of your choosing. When Meulin stands you notice her leg is still quite sore so she has a slight limp.
You go over and offer your help, she gladly takes your arm, easing some pain off her sore leg.
"Thanks Kurloz, I don't know what I'd do without you," she says with a soft smile.
You smile back, leading her to the classroom to eat lunch. One thing you love about field day is you can eat with Meulin in her classroom, which you like much better than the cafeteria since they make the classes sit separately.
You enter the classroom and see Mituna and Latula, you guide Meulin over to them and then go get her lunchbox from her cubbyhole.
"Thanks Purrloz!" you notice the nickname she only really uses when she's really happy and you smile. You watch as she digs through her lunchbox and gets a disgusted look on her face as she pulls out an apple, "ew I hate apples, do you want it?" handing it out to me.
"Sure," you reply, taking the apple. You take a bite of it as Meulin watches, "what?" you ask.
"How can you eat those things? They are so nasty!"
"Meulin, watch this," laughs Latula, taking a huge bite of the apple she pulls from her sack lunch.
"Ewww!" Meulin shrieks, causing you all to burst into laughter. "Not funny guys, totally not cool" she says with a laugh, "so, are you guys ready for my party this weekend? It's gonna be so great! Since the babies expected really soon my mom's been so worried about it and hadn't had really any time at all for me. Yeah I know that sounds super selfish but, I miss my mom."
"It's completely understandable Meu," you assure gently, "it'll be fun."
