Match

They sat there and drank some tea, while Luther spoke, he was telling stories and cracking jokes every now and then. The atmosphere got easy when the others started joining in.

*Knock* *knock*

"Come in" Luther responded to the knock on the door.

"Let's go grandma's" Trevor came in, he lived right next to their dorm room and would often visit. "Do you guys plan to stink up the room? While the rest of us are taking a shower" Trevor said jokingly.

"And here we were planning to go and fart in all the other dorm rooms" Luther said as they all got up.

Everyone took their essentials and left for the showers, along the way they grouped up with the others. They all entered the showers and started their day by talking, halfway through their shower, they all started humming and singing.

The group of thirty or so boys moved towards the cafeteria, they all got their food and sat down at their usual spots, the cafeteria wasn't that packed and only a few groups of children were present.

"Hey James, did you hear, Hera's daughter, Athena enrolled at the academy yesterday" Henry's ears perked up when he heard Trevor talking from the table behind him, the other group of boys also turned their attention to Trevor.

"Your lying, Athena isn't interested in school and her only focus in the military." James the boy in question, immediately spoke up and started speaking like a fan boy. "Next time you want to lie to me, make sure it's something I know nothing about" James said defensively

"Dude, calm down. I don't know if it's true or not but yesterday, when I went to the admin building, I heard a group of girls talking. Apparently yesterday morning, a military grade flying car, painted red and gold, stopped by the admin building. Two figures clad in armor went to the principals office and after a while the principal accompanied them to the registration room. That's what I heard, anyway" the others listened to the story as they ate. Who didnt like entertainment with some food in their mouths.

"Yeah, no. Those girls must have been on some alcohol. Everyone knows that, Athena and Hera, although they are mother and daughter, their relationshp is as rocky as a ship caught in a storm at sea" James said

"What if she's actually here" a boy said in the long silence

"!!!" everyone looked at James's complicated expression.

"Ayo, I have an idea. How about we sneak into the north side and see if it's true" Trevor whispered, everyone heard him though.

"No, no one is doing that. If someone were to get caught I'm pretty sure they'd get expelled" Luther said sternly, he made sure to discourage anyone stupid enough to think otherwise.

"North side?" Henry looked at Luther with a curious gaze

"Yeah. The north side is where most of the girls usually stay, if you look around the cafeteria, you'd see that there aren't any girl. Besides class's time and special events, boys and girls don't usually interact in this school. Now, South of the admin building you'll find the boy's dorm and north of that is the girl's dorm." Luther explained, shocking Henry. Henry looked around and confirmed, now that he thought about it, it seemed true.

"Now, what ever rule you break, make sure it's not that one, as the school take's that one very seriously" Luther said, emphasizing every word.

"Theoretically speaking, What would happen if someone accidentally walked into the restricted area" Richard asked the question that everyone wanted an answer too.

"Weather by accident or not, if they find a boy north of the admin building, the punishment is still the same. It hasn't happened in recent years but apparently when the academy passed that rule, a reckless boy was caught the next day. It was said that he was tied up and an angry mob of his female classmate attacked him" The boys listened to Luther's scary story without missing any details

"!!!" Henry's blood ran cold for a sec, he wiped some cold swaet from his forehead.

"Anyway enough of this drama, let's go play some ball" Trevor suggested, they all agreed and got up.

After changing to something more comfortable, Henry followed along, the boys knew the way, after a few turns they came to a stop in front of a big warehouse looking building.

"Soccer or basket ball" Luther asked the boys, both soccer and basketball were both respected equally in this day and age.

The boys voted and soccer was chosen for the day.

Henry along with the boys pushed open the huge doors, a huge space appeared before them, there was alot more room inside then what you'd expect from looking at the outside. Henry figured that it must have been space magic.

The room was devided into two, one side had a basket ball court while the other had a soccer field. The warehouse was empty with no one else insight.

"Everyone must be preparing for tomorrow's test" Richard said as they all did some stretching.

Trevor and Luther became captains and started choosing their teams.

"No, I think I'll watch from the bench for now and see how the game is played" Henry responded when Luther picked him. Henry knew how soccer was played and he knew the rules but he had never played soccer before so he thought he just watch for now.

The two teams were picked and the match started, one team was wearing shirts while the others were bare chested. The match started off nice, magic wasn't allowed, although it would be hard to notice, no one used it.

Henry along with a handful of boys sat on the bench and watched the game.

Trevor took the ball from finn and pushed alone, leaving his team behind. He showed his skills by dribbling past a few players on his own.

He arrived infront of the goalkeeper, who was Luther, he shot the ball with a strong kick . The ball curved in the air at a fast speed and aimed for the corner.

Luther reacted late and jumped up towards the corner, he streachted out his arm hoping to catch the ball in time.

*Bonk*

To everyone's surprise, the ball hit the post and went flying to the side. Trevor reacted quickly and ran for it, the other team also reacted by pushing towards him.

With to many players serrounding him, Trevor kicked the ball to his teams side. A muscular boy from Trevor's team arrived infront of the ball in no time, without needing to close the distance, he kicked the ball towards the goalposts.

*Bam*

The boys foot connected with the ball, a loud bang sounded as the ball was sent flying, the ball twore through the air at a fast speed. Unfortunately Luther reacted to late before the ball hit the net, that shot was so powerful that the net was barely able to stop the ball.

"Goal!" Trevor shouted as they celebrated. "Rigil that was some powerful stuff, I didn't know you could kick like that"

"How are you suppose to know when you leave your team behind and push alone" Rigil the muscular youth said, he was in the same dorm room as Trevor.

*Prrr*

The whistle sounded and the match begun, Richard took control of the team and started shouting instructions, for the most part their team did good and for the most part would reach the other goal post but they would always fail to score. They didn't have a powerful striker.

The match proceeded and Trevor's team was winning three to nothing.

The second half started and Henry along with the other boys were substituted in, Trevor's team chose to remain the same. After a few minutes of rest the second half started.

Trevor and Rigil started the match aggressively and pushed to score a forth goal from the get go.

*Bam*

After passing the opposition, Trevor's passed the ball back to Rigil, Rigil stopped the ball with his foot and did what he did best, he shot the ball towards the goalposts with everything he had.

*Bam*

The ball rang as it landed firmly in Luther's hands, he stopped the ball dead in it's tracks and didn't let it move forward, everyone looked at Luther in shock.

"If this was basket ball, you guys wouldn't have it so easy" Luther said as he shook his hand in pain. If he had to admit, the shot was quite powerful.

He pulled pack his arm and launched the ball in the air, the ball flew high in the sky and landed infront of Richard, who woke up from his daze.

"Push!" Richard shouted, waking up the others from their daze. Without Rigil or Trevor, Richard and the others passed the opposition.

Nearing the goal post Richard passed the ball to Henry, Henry got the ball and shot at the goal post.

*swoosh*

When Henry kicked the ball it didn't even make a sound the only sound that was heard was the ball flying through the air.

"Gooaaalll!" Luther shouted from the other side as the ball landed behind the net. He shouted with a smile just to annoy Trevor and Rigil.
