Dodge ball!!! "YESSSSS!!!" she bellowed. She loved sports and dodgeball was a favorite of hers. She hung on to every word the professor said and jumped out of her seat as soon as the professor had asked her to do it. The space was cleared and it would be game on soon. As he explained the rules she was a bit confused. AJ raised her hand. "Just to be clear professor, we aren't actually going to throw balls at anybody?" Because that was dodge ball to her, but she had to remember that this was the magical world and their idea of things were usually different than hers.

The costumes looked wicked and she quickly put hers on not wanting to miss out on anything. As the pendulum came down she realized that it was the "ball" part of dodge ball and she could work with that. Knowing that nobody could actually fall out of the tower was reassuring because she would hate to die without ever knowing how to properly use her wand. She looked over to her sister and did the two finger point at her eyes letting her know that it was officially game on, her competitive side immediately taking over.

It was time. Everybody was set and AJ immediately watched the pendulum and took off. This was difficult because there were so many people and trying to dodge the huge swinging pendulum was proving to be not as easy as she first thought. A cool breeze hit her face and blew her hair behind her head. "That feels nice." Orange, and yellow leaves began to fall all around her and before she knew it one was blocking her vision. Usually she was quick on her feet, but she never had to deal with thousands of leaves falling right in her line of vision... RUDE. SMACK!

O_____O

The pendulum came out of nowhere. "This is awesome." She knew to expect the unexpected now, and she would change up the came from now on. Even though the professor never really said that anybody would be a winner, she was going to be. She was going to win this!
