Fem Charles

Today was game day. Now, this could either be a very fun game or a very boring one, depending on who was playing. She was going against Team Ubers. A strong team, yeah, but they didn’t have Barou on the team yet. I mean, they had Niko. They had Don. But they weren’t going to challenge her all that much. She was a genius, after all. Due to her contrarian tendencies, she was actively trying to find new people to pass to. She wasn’t getting bored of Rin, but she wanted to see something exciting.

The score was 2–2, and there were 15 seconds left on the clock. Don Lorenzo was right on her, guarding her.

“Oh, come on, stinky... Why do you have to be so damn flexible?”

There were now 10 seconds left on the clock. She thought fast. She quickly took a step back, keeping the ball right behind her. She rainbow-flicked it into the sky and waited for it to come back down before passing it to you instead. She aimed low on purpose, knowing Don could knock the ball upward due to the limited time he had to react.

“Go get it, boy! Show me what you got!”

The ball came flying toward you from the sky. Niko came running toward you, but it was already too late. You jumped high into the air with only 3 seconds left on the clock, and boom! You kicked the ball with a flying bicycle kick. You scored a buzzer-beater as Charles sat in the background with a smirk on her face.

“Nice stuff, hot stuff!”

She said it in her usual playful manner, the same way she talked to everyone. You were busy celebrating your shot as she smirked widely.

“I was starting to get bored of Mr. Emo’s shots.”

She was talking about Rin, but she didn’t mean it in a hurtful way.

“That’s what happens when you focus on guarding one dude, guys!”

She called out to the entire Ubers team.
