The Wolf And I

Chapter Five

- At The Scrimmage -

Karin left without another word and Ami was back on our side.

"So my starters are TenTen, Temari, Ino, Sakura, and Hinata."

"Yeah mom. We got it."

"Okay we have to hustle up and down that court because if you don't then you lose bragging rights and advantages over the guys. So what are we going to do?"

"WIN!"

We yelled.

"What are we going to do?"

"WIN!"

We got into a circle and put our hands in the middle.

"Ladies let's show these guys whose boss. 1! 2! 3! BREAK!"

Ino ran to start the music which was We Will Rock You by Queen.

"Nice choice!"

I smiled and high-fived her.

"TenTen we are not listening to music during the game."

"Yes we are dad. Just ask mom."

He looked at her.

"It's true."

"Why?"

"Because if they can't concentrate on basketball with music playing then how are they going to concentrate with crowd cheering?"

"Good point. Fine but TenTen you better have decent songs."

"It does!"

Mom walked to the middle of the court. I heard Haku cheering me on now.

"Okay starters for both teams meet in the middle."

Me, Hinata, Temari, Ino, and Sakura walked to the middle and Neji, Naruto, Kankuro, Gaara and Sasuke also walked to the middle.

"Pick your person to guard."

I looked into Neji's eyes and smiled.

"I have Neji."

"I've got Sasuke."

Sakura said.

"I've got Naruto."

Hinata said softly.

I've got Kankuro."

Temari said laughing.

"Then I've got Gaara."

Ino said sadly.

"Okay now get into your spots when jumping the ball."

I went to the middle, Temari went to one side, Hinata on the other, Ino went behind me to help play defense if needed, and Sakura went in front of me to help play offense if needed. The boys went to where their person is.

"I want a clean game. If you don't you run. If you do than you go home. Got that maggots?"

"Yes mom. Just throw the ball."

Mom, of course, didn't have a basketball so she ran to the basketball rack and threw dad the basketball.

Basketball by Bow Wow is playing.

"Shake hands you two."

Neji and I shook hands. Dad got ready to throw the ball and we went to our jumping positions. Seconds past until dad threw the ball up and I tipped it to Sakura. The game has started.

Sakura dribbled to the middle of the court and waited for us to set up.

"Motion."

Hinata and Ino screened down and Temari and me went up. Sakura threw Temari the ball and screened for me. Ino and Hinata screened for each other. I drove down after being screened. Temari threw me the ball and I did a pump fake then went in for the lay-up.
