Zoophobia Next Generation Book 1 : The Adventure Begins

Chapter 5: Gym Class Brings Broken and Bruised Faces

If there was one thing that Maxwell had hated about school was gym class. He got an A in gym only because they have a partcipation grade in it, if they gave out a grade based off athletic abilty he would be stuck in kindergarten, he was the worst when it came to sports.

"Alright," Malcom smiled holding a clipboard, "since today is the first day back and the first day of highschool for the freshmen we're gonna start off with a simple game of softball. Let's divide into teams of 7."

Maxwell, CeCe, Gabe, Rocky, Oliver, Jake and Corbin were on the first team know as Team Blue. The second team had Elizabeth, Gavin, Sophia, Fawn, Zoe, Valentine and Broklynn or Team Red. The played baseball outside in the fields behind the school. Team Red was up to bat and Valentine was first.

"Easy out!" Rocky said as a joke since he was the pitcher.

"You're so lucky that I'm over here and your over there!" Valentine growled.

"Wow," Rocky said, "what got you in such as bad mode in not even half way through the day?"

"She got a little hostle with an upperclassmen." Corbin called out from the field.

"Alright Rocky throw the ball this isn't an all day everyday class." Malcom said.

"And I'm so glad it isn't." Maxwell muutered to himself.

Rocky threw the ball and Valentine missed it, she was too late.

"STRIIIIIKE ONE!" Malcome called out.

Team Blue cheered but Maxwell. Rocky threw the ball again but instead of being too 'ate Valentine was too early and misssed it again.

"STRIIIIIKE TWO!" Malcom called out.

Team Blue started cheering and Maxwell clapped just a little, he felt bad that Valentine missed it and only had one more chance but he started to enjoy himself. Usually when Maxwell is on a team they ended up losing, but Maxwell actually was enjoing himself cause this might be the first time his team actually wins. Rocky threw the ball once more and Valentine sucessfully hit it.

"RUN!" All of Team Red shouted.

Valentine ran as fast as she could passing first and second base but stopping at third.

"Alright Elizabeth you're next show me what ya got girl." Malcome smiled checking off something on his clipboard.

Elizabeth got the bat as position herself in postion to hit the ball properly. Maxwell had a blush across his face, a big goofy smile and gave out a lovingly sigh.

"Elizabeth is an angel. She's the most beautiful creature on this planet. We've been best friends for years and everyday she gets prettier and prettier, I love her so much. I wish I had the courage to tell her how I feel and the way she makes my heart skip a beat." Maxwell thought to himself.

Elizabeth hit the ball, Maxwell was in such a love-sick puppy daydream he didn't even know that the ball was heading towards him.

"Elizabeth is so perfect too, the way her hair lightly blows in the wind, her blue eyes shine like aquamarines ad her laugh is so sexy. She has the singing voice of an angel while her speaking voice puts angels to shame." Maxwell continued to think to himself.

"Dude look out!" Oliver shouted.

"The ball is comming straight towards you!" Cece screamed.

"Huh?" Maxwell snapped out of his daydream.

It was too late, the ball hit Maxwell straight in the face knocking him out.

"Maxwell!" Everyone shouted as Malcom ran towards student who was lying on the floor.
