The Curse Mark

The Soccer Match

The biggest match in school history, it was super cup match. Rival schools battle it out each year to see who is better a sports this year is soccer and my time to shine. There will be scouts at this game I could make it pro and meet Christiano Ronaldo. That has always been my dream to play along side my idol. Christiano Ronaldo I have met him before he gave me his shirt at a football match and that same shirt I always wear whenever I play football. It brings me the best kinds of luck. This was the time to wear the weapon. I approached the squad roster and saw that I was starting. I was overwhelmed. One of our left wingers was out and had moved to London as he was scouted by Manchester United. I wish to get scouted for Chelsea or Real Madrid. I went into the changing rooms. I put on my number 7 Ronaldo top under my number 7 football kit. I was known as a speed demon for my immense speed. I put on my new blue Nike mercurial vapours. I got up went out through the blinding light into the stadium.

I was jogging towards the pitch, touched the ground and made the sign of a cross. I was warming up and in the crowds I could see my friend Zain and Shane. I can also see Odessy next to her Friend Aurora. I also see a couple of my closet friends. Levi, Sam, Rai and Anjie. The only girl friends that I saw were all bundled up in a group cheering us on. I loved the support and attention. I was warming up and can across Devon who was with the referee an the captain of the other team. The crowd was wild, the mascots where doing engaging dances. The scouts where aligned across the pitch. Scouts from Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona were there. I had to make a good impression. I got into position came face to face with opponent shook his hand. This whistle blowed. My time too shine.

The pressure from the bears was immense we ha to go into defensive mode. I was staying back helping defend a corner. Which was cleared and the ball landed right next to Devon. He got the ball and held it for a while until he got to the halfway line. I was was sprinting into space and there were only 2 defenders back. I was sprinting but he did not pass the ball to me instead he passed it to the right wing where it was intercepted. I was cursing him in my head. I let it slip. The matches continued I eventually got the ball. I began to sprint. I dribbled my way through 3 defenders and nuts the last one. I had a one two pass from Zack. I had an opportunity on goal and curled it into the net. I sprinted did a cartwheel then I twisty backflip. I celebrated and my team mates came. Devon did not come near me. Half time came and Devon came up to me in the changing room. He began to curse me for no reason. I was wondering what was his problem? He has been like this ever since I came to this town.

I just recently moved from London and came to America. America was to become my new home. I just moved to Chicago, Windy City. Home of Chicago Bulls NBA basket ball team. I moved into a beautiful area where the houses where big. We had finished unpacking, I decided to meet all the other children in the neighbourhood in the local park. That's where I met Shane and Zain. Everyone I met Odessy and Aurora. I was talking to Odessy and that's when Devon came. He pushed me on to the grass. "Who is this fool and why is he talking to you?" "Watch who your pushing, I'm new here show some respect. I'm Reus." I stuck out my hand and he slapped it. "Why you talking to her?" "So it's a crime in this hood to talk up girls." People began to gather round. Odessy was holding a book as Devon yanked her away she dropped it. I picked it up and was giving it back to her but Devin knocked it out of my hands, I did the same. This time he kicked the back of my leg. I fell on one knee. He was about to punch me but I blocked it and swiped at his legs. He fell. I managed to give her book back before I was kicked to the floor by a string kick to the chest. I up and ran towards him. He i swing a punch and he ducked and lifted my up and slammed me on my back. I was left on the floor breathless. I struggled up before he knocked me back down to the floor with a butterfly kick to the face. I was left of the floor. Blood coming out if my cut in my forehead and nose. It began to rain heavily I was left there before my curse mark activated. But it was no use I got home and saw myself in the mirror. My eyes were red and hair was spiky, my skin was changing colour and I grew claws. This was my abnormal power.

The second half continued I popped in another two goals and made successful dribbles that left defenders fumbling everywhere. I was declared man of the match and we won the cup. Everyone was lifting me up this was my time and I grabbed it with both hands. This is the time I have been waiting for. "Hey Devon where is your crew now oh yeh they are with me." I was enjoying my glory, Devon was looking like poo poo, no one likes poo poo. Yay I felt happy. As I was getting ready to go home. I began to walk and went home via the field.

Behind me were 10 boys. I was walking by myself minding own business and happy and proud of myself. Then suddenly I felt a sharp poke where my curse mark was. I fell onto my knees and doubled over in pain. The curse mark was activated. The baits surrounded by and I screamed out sending out shockwaves. The boys steadily walked back step by step I was turning, changing I got up eyes turned red, claws growing, hair becoming blacking and spiky. This was the transformation.............
