Anyone fancy a match?

Subject: Anyone fancy a match? Sat Jan 15, 2011 4:37 pm

I walked into the volleyball pit, slightly bored. The camp was becoming kind of dull, and I needed to do something to get my mind off it, and onto something else. I sat down at the edge of the pit, waiting for somebody to play with.

I walked over to the volleyball pit and saw a girl standing there. I looked at her for a second and then decided to get to know her. I smiled and walked over to her. I sat down next to her and said, "Hello, my name's Ami Mizuno. I was born in Japan and my mom's name was Nori Mizuno, I'm not sure though who my father is. He left when I was a small baby." I wondered who this girl was. She looked pretty nice and I normally was pretty good at seeing this sort of thing.

I look up from the ground to see a girl walking over to me.
"I'm Violet. Violet Zaera. I'm a daughter of Athena." I say quietly. Noise wasn't my friend. I thought about what to say next. I wasn't exactly the most confident person ever. Nevertheless, I loved a game of volleyball. "Fancy a match?" I ask her, and start to walk into the pit.

I shrugged and said, "Sure, I'm pretty good. Did I tell you that I was in Japan when a lot of crazy things were happening over there and I had to learn to fight against them to defend the people of Japan?" Ami got on her side of the volleyball pit and said, "Shall you serve or should I?"

"You can serve." I mumble, and hope she can hear me. This girl seemed very... Loud. And it scared me a little. I threw the ball to her, and waited.

I smiled and caught the ball. I got ready to serve and then I hit it over the net with enough speed to get it over the net but not enough to make it go out of bounds. I watched waiting for Viola to make her move.

I jumped, and hit the ball back at Ami. Or try to. The hit was too weak, and it bounced off the net. I picked up the ball. "One-nil to you, I guess." I say, before serving back to her.

I smiled and said, "Arigtou." When the ball came back over to me I smirked going all out and said, "Shine Aqua Illusion." A blast of ice came out of my hand that spiked the ball downward. The ice then vanished into mist and I waited to see whether or not the ball would hit the ground or not.

I took a quick step forwards, and hit the ball back over the net. I hoped that it either had hit the floor or her hand. I didn't want another fail shot again.

I frowned and said, "Huh, I guess I'll have to do better than that. No worries. watch this." I jumped int the air flipping backwards and kicking the ball down towards the ground on the other side of the net. I was not about to be beaten at something so easily. My fighting in Tokyo had also been good to help me out in this. I landed on the ground and waited to see if the volleyball hit the ground on Viola's side.

I dove to the floor, just hitting the ball upwards before it hit the floor. I quickly stood up again, as the ball came down. I hit it back over the net. At least this round was longer than the last.

I looked at the ball with determination and said, "I'm not going to give up so easily. Shine Aqua Allusion!" I shot more ice out of my hand and slapped th ball back over to the other side and downward hoping that it would hit the ground this time. I was starting to wonder how long the volley was going to go on.[/color]

Nothing could draw my attention away from the ball. Not her ice tricks. Not the other people. I was a daughter of Athena. I would win. I hit the ball with both determination and force, before crossing my fingers and hoping that it hit the floor.

I furrowed my eyes and said, "Alright you have forced me to use an attack I wouldn't normally use to win a volleyball game." I concentrated and then called out, "Mercury Star Power!!" My body started to glow and I jumped into the air hitting the ball at more than 20 miles per hour down towards the ground on the other side. I landed on the ground waiting to see my results. The aura that was glowing around me was of a light blue and snow started falling around the volleyball pit.

Subject: Re: Anyone fancy a match? Sat Jan 15, 2011 6:20 pm

There was no doubt that I had lost. The ball was in a deep crater in the sand, and the freshly fallen snow was evidence of the power of that attack. My mouth was ajar in awe.
"That is quite a good move...." I say, still slightly taken aback.

I smiled and said, "Sorry, I was taught by a friend to always give it my all in everything I do. Did I get too carried away?"

Suddenly there was the sound of violin playing in the area around the volleyball pit.

I looked at where the familiar noise that I was hearing was coming from and saw the exact person I was talking about. I walked over to her and said, "Hello, Michiru-chan. It's nice to see you here. I didn't know that you were a demigoddess as well."

I smiled at Ami and said, "Anou, hai I guess I just forgot to mention that part. As it turns out my father was actually Poseidon. How long have you been here, Ami-chan?"

I smiled and said, "Anou, I just got here to tell you the truth. Apparently my father was Boreas the god of winter which is where part of my affinity with ice comes from I suppose. Is Haruka here as well?"

I looked at Ami and nodded saying, "Hai, she's at her cabin though. It turns out she's a daughter of Boreas god of the winter winds."

I stood in the background, watching the two girls have their conversation. I made up my mind, and gathered up enough confidence to ask her to join us.
"Would you like to play too?" I muttered meekly. I wasn't one with words.

I looked at the girl and said, "No thank you. Volleyball isn't really my thing but thank you for asking. That was very kind." I looked over to Ami-chan and said, "Anou, ja ne." I turned around and began to walk back to my cabin.

I smile and say, "Ja ne, Michiru-chan" I then looked at Viola and said, "Don't take it personally, she's not really that much into sports except for swimming. She loves swimming, kinda like me."

Subject: Re: Anyone fancy a match? Mon Jan 17, 2011 2:31 pm

"Don't worry. She didn't want to play, she didn't have to play." I respond, picking up the ball. "now, shall we continue our game?" I ask, walking back over to the pit.

Sure, but do you want me to take it down a notch? Or should I keep giving it my all?" I didn't want to discourage her.

Subject: Re: Anyone fancy a match? Mon Jan 17, 2011 2:52 pm

"Whatever's best for you." I say, cracking my wrists, preparing for round three. "Your serve or mine?" I ask, picking up the slightly battered ball. It had been through a lot.

I smiled and said, "You can serve it." I got ready for the ball so that I could go all out again.

I threw the ball up in the air, before hitting it over the net. I hoped I didn't lose this round. I wasn't usually a competitive person, but sometimes my mother's side of me shone through. Now was one of those times.

I smiled as I got ready for the ball and then I hit it up over the net back to Viola's side. I was pretty sure by now that I was going to win this seeing as the score was right now two to zip. I wondered if perhaps I was going a little too hard on her though. She had probably not met one of the senshi warriors before however disguised I might be in my civilian form. Nobody except the other senshi, along with Mamoru, Luna (a talking black cat with a crescent moon on her head), and Artemis (a talking white cat.), knew that I was indeed Sailor Mercury and nobody else would ever find out.

I hit the ball back over to her, and watched as it landed in the sand.
"That makes it two-one, right?" I say, slightly smug that I had scored. But I wasn't winning. Yet.
