Ella got out of her mom’s car and went searching for Sophie, Chloé, and Kamille. She went across the upper-quad, past the office, and into the library. Suddenly someone threw half their weight on Ella. She didn’t even need look at the person to know who it was, but she turned around to see Kamille smiling. “Ha ha! Don’t think you scared me though!” Ella laughed, and a second after the bell rang for school to start. It was Wednesday so she went to second period, Language arts. She was doing a project with her table group, but that period felt like it went fast because it was her “Break Period”. She called it that because it was the class she could relax a little. Soon as the bell rang for the next period, fourth, Ella speed-walked over to the gym for PE. After changing into PE clothes and did all the warm-ups, her teacher Mr.C told the class to go out on the turf/track to go play ‘Capture the Balls’. This game was pretty much capture the flag with ten balls on each side and instead of two flags on the ground, the balls replace that, you have two flags on your waist. Ella saw Robin race off his team’s side and onto Ella’s. He was one of the fastest runners in that class period, but Ella was one bit slower, so she could easily keep up with him. The thing was trying to grab one of his flags while running, that was the challenge. To her misfortune she couldn’t seem to get it, so Robin got to the safe-zone with all of her team’s balls. He got one. “Fifteen seconds in there then you have to get out,” Ella warned. “I know the rules, don’t worry!” He responded. He suddenly shot out of the zone. She chased him, right on his heals. She gripped one of his red flags on his waist and pulled it off. At that same moment he tripped. “You okay?” “Yeah.” “Do you want your flag back now?” He nodded and reached out for it and handed me the ball in return. Robin walked back over to his side of the turf. “You almost made it,” Ella said gesturing to the line that was only a few feet away from where she pulled his flag. He smiled and laughed, “Yeah.” Mr.C blew his whistle and everyone headed for the two locker rooms.
