Take Your Places!
[At the competition....]
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second annual Weight Battling Competition! May I present to you the 16 challengers competing at this event! First, from Higher Raise Academy and last year's champion, Team Cookie Dough!" announced David.
"Sheesh, these teams are uglier and fatter than we are. It's almost like they think this is an eating contest," muttered Rainbow.
' "They don't look that tough," scoffed Samantha.
"If they're the past champion, they must be good," figured Persephone.
"Anyone can be champ at something lame like this. Probably didn't have any stiff competition," corrected Rainbow.
"I very much doubt that," replied Marcus.
"Their challengers, all the way from All Time High, Team Weighs!" continued David.
"What are they wearing? Certainly not a beauty contest," remarked Calvin from Team Cookie Dough.
"Each team will choose a player to face off in this circle. Push your opponent out and you win. Any questionable tactics will result in instant disqualification of that player. You are only allowed to push with your hands, but your feet can move around so long as they aren't intentionally disrupting the other player. There's also no talking with your opponent in any way. With all that out of the way, teams, pick your players for the practice round!" shouted David.
"Practice round? Isn't this supposed to be round 1?" questioned Persephone.
"I guess they want to see how good the players are first so they can anticipate the best matchups later," concluded Marcus before a player from each team is chosen.
"Wait a minute, is that KELLY!?" noted Kyle.
"All Time High, Kelly, as in Kelly Richardson?" asked Marcus.
"Sure looks like her. What would she be doing here?" asked Samantha.
"What a surprise, it's a former student of ours against Rainbow. Should be interesting," noted Mrs. Weighs.
"This'll be one way to get their aggression out," snickered Courtney.
"Ready? Set? GO!" announced David before the girls start pushing.
"I can't tell who I want to win," remarked Marcus.
"I wouldn't want either of them to win if I had the choice," pouted Samantha.
"Good thing it's only a practice round," admitted Persephone.
"Looks to be pretty close," remarked Courtney.
"It would be as these two have equal amounts of aggression," agreed Mrs. Weighs.
"They're really going at it, folks. Looks like they've been ready for years," commented David.
