My palms are sweating in anxiety and I feel like I'm going to hurl. I'm the last one up on Team B and Clara Smith is ready to throw the red rubber ball to my face. I can feel the rough pain rub against my face even though she hasn't made her move yet. Her rookies step back and snicker, ready to laugh. I hold back my sob and nod, closing my eyes. I'm saved though, because the bell rings. Clara drops her ball as Mr. Green blows his whistle and she stares at me, daggers shining in her fiery almost-black eyes. My life = over.
Nobody else is in the change room but Clara and me. I wait in the shower, cold water running down my bare back. I'm nervous. I fiddle with my fingers as soap sprinkles down my legs, washing me down to a lemon and detergent smell. "Emily, get out from the shower. I know you're here. It's time for some punishment. You're so lucky that you were saved by the bell but this time it'll be worse." Clara threatens. I wrap my arms tighter around me, biting my lower lip in fear. Don't hurt her, a voice mumbles, echoes booming through the walls. I raise my head and I hear Clara's buff legs back to the door. I realize it because her back slams against the knob. "Stop pranking around, Emily. Come out from the shower, clothers or not. You're going to be beat." Clara's voice cracks though. I can hear her voice stuttering a bit. She's scared. This isn't some silly joke, Clara Michelle Francesca Smith. GET OUT OF THE CHANGE ROOM! the voice demands. It's a male's voice, it's rough and scratchy as if he hasn't spoken for months. I can tell he- its young, almost my age. Clara stumbles out of the change room and I turn the knob of the shower, peeking out.
I see a boy, merely visible, looking at me with a smirk. "Looking good, Emily Carson. Fresh." he winks. I scream.

Yes, probably my FINAL ATTEMPT for a story. Other than that, I'll just stick to quotes and stuff. This one is mythological, unlike the usual 'reality with highschool and kidnapping and stuffs' story. This is something I'm going to try and I hope it really works. Thanks :]
