Life
Sam nervously twirled a lock of black hair around her finger. Tucker held his PDA and was grinning excitedly. Sam glared at the techno geek. 'Why aren't you protesting this!"
Tucker smiled. "Relax! Danny has super fast healing powers, and this little stunt will make me king of comic videos! If he wipes out, that is."
Sam sighed in exasperation. Danny had been obsessed with the daredevil shows for the past week, and had taken it he could do those insane stunts as well. They were in the schools parking lot, 20 trash cans lined up in a row. A large wooden ramp was set up at the start of the row. Danny was perched on his black and silver bike at the top of Dead Man Hill, twitching with adrenaline.
"Danny, this is crazy! You can't do this!" Sam cried. Danny pouted. Sam felt her resolve weaken at those baby blues.
Sam turned to Danny with a surrender sigh. "Ok, how about Tucker does it after you? That way you'll both be publically embarrassed and you`ll get company in the hospital."
Danny brightened. `Yeah, it`ll fun!"
"No way! I'm just the PDA man!" Tucker protested. Sam gave him the death glare. Tucker winced. 'Ok..."
Danny whooped as he sped down the hill, wind whipping past him as he whizzed toward the ramp. Sam squeezed her eyes shut. "I can't watch!" Tucker cheered.
Danny flew off the ramp and was able to clear 4 trash cans before hurtling to the pavement. Danny screamed in pain. Sam hurried over to him. Danny's leg was twisted at a painful angle, a nasty cut forming on his elbow. Sam helped the broken boy up. Danny spotted his bike, now missing the front tire and the handle bars bent, lying amongst the toppled cans.
"My bike!" Danny wailed. Sam shook her head.
"No one ever listens to the Goth girl." She jerked her chin toward the wreckage. "Tucker, reset the course and go."
Tucker whimpered as he handed Sam his PDA and complied. Sam managed to reassemble the bike and lugged up the hill to a shaking Tucker. Sam smacked his helmet. "Good luck."
Tucker took a deep breath and closed his eyes as he went hurtling down the hill. Sam watched with crossed arms, wondering how she was going to get her two best friends to the hospital. Danny leaned against the fence, holding his leg.
They both stared, gaping, as Tucker easily cleared all 20 trash cans and landed safely on the other side. Sam was smirking as Danny started shouting.
"UNBELIEVABLE! I COULDN'T EVEN CLEAR 4 CANS, AND YOU DID ALL 20! I'M THE HERO! IT'S NOT FAIR!"
Tucker simply took off his helmet and faced the grinning Sam and shocked Danny.
"C'est la vie, bro."
