The florescent light bulbs above everyone gave off a slight buzzing noise only made louder Von the silence of everyone in the classroom. Shawn stared out the window as the football field was seen in the distance. He flipped his pencil around his fingers as soon the school glocke rang loudly in the classroom.

“Ok everyone have a nice day, remember tomorrow is the big test, remember to study.” The teacher tells everyone as a herd of kids come rushing out the classroom. All except Shawn who is the last to leave, holding his bag across his shoulder forlorn. The once permanent goofy smile now gone from his face.

“Shawn!” Pixie screams from behind him making him turn around. “Shawn, Du feelin’ alright?” Pixie asks knowing what happened during the weekend to Lyllith.

“Yes, of course, why wouldn’t I be?” Shawn says with total denial in his voice as his pace quickens.

“You know, if Du don’t want to play in the game tonight I can tell coach, I’m sure he will understand.” Pixie says trying to catch up with the buff ginger but can’t.

“I’m telling Du I’m fine! Jeez.” Shawn makes it outside as he pushes the door open hard causing it to swing, schaukel open and hit the football game poster hard. It hit it on an area with the painting of a kid and the impact on the paper made it look like the kid was crushed.

Pixie just looked outside and back at the poster as she shook her head and walked off.

…

Carlie Jo snapped a picture of the football field from her camera as she sat in the bleachers Weiter to Davie and Paris.

“Well, let’s just see how America tosses the ol’ pigskin around.” Paris says leaning back onto the bench behind her.

“Uhm…it’s called a football.” Davie says as suddenly a football goes hurtling at him but barely misses as it bounces off the steel bench making it shake roughly. “Hey man, watch it!”

“Sorry!” A voice is heard calling from below as Davie grabs the ball and throws it back at them.

“Well they seem to handle it well.” Carlie says as she snaps multiple pictures.

The men around the field plug up the electric scoreboard as it starts flickering on. Carlie snapped a picture as she then looked back down at the Foto just taken on the screen of her camera. It showed only some of the lights lit up so that the grid spelled ‘dIE’. Carlie looked back up at the scoreboard but it was normal Von then.

Skyler soon appeared now as she sat Weiter to the gang.

“Finally, where have Du been?” Paris asks her as the people below begin to drive around the field to draw the lines around the field.

“Just thinking, that’s all. Did Du hear about the girl that died at Chris’s party?” Sky sagte trying to change the subject.

“Yeah, it was the same one we saw at the water park wasn’t she?” Davie says now sitting up.

“Yeah, it’s…strange.” Carlie says looking back down at the camera.

…

In the locker rooms below, Shawn was inside getting ready for the big game. The night sky had finally swallowed the sky whole and Shawn gazed up at it with his large orange football suit on and twirled his helm in his hands. A flag with a skull and crossbones was raised up at one side sagte ‘Pirates’ and the other sagte ‘Jaguars’.

“And we’re going to go out there and crush the Jaguars like the wusses they are!” An old short and bald man yells out as the rest of the teams screams back and begins running out to the field. Shawn then feels a hand on his shoulder that make shim jump and he swiftly turns around.

“Dude, relax its me.” Jaime says putting his arms up.

“Oh, whew, sorry man.” Shawn looks down at his helm and back up at Jaime.

“Hey listen, I heard about what happened to Lyllith, are Du ok?” Jaime asks setting a hand on his shoulder.

“Yeah I’m fine, it’s alright. Du know, sometimes Du just can’t save people. Du can’t change the course of their life.” Shawn says sliding the helm on.

“You can change your own though, now go out there and crush the Jaguars man.” Jaime says sliding a cigarette out his hand.

Shawn nods before rushing out to the field. A man across the field stops the mobile that cuts all the gras, grass on the field and turns the key to the off position but doesn’t take it out. He hops off and opens a can of bier as he leans on the side of it and vomits as he is clearly drunk now. He sets the rest of the six pack on the platform Weiter to the window of the mobile.

The game starts now as the first tackle sets off on the game.

“This has got to be thee most violent game ever.” Davie says watching the black and orange people on the field tackle and beat down each other.

Soon the referee blew the whistle as it was time for the players to reset the field. As they do the score sign was starting to malfunction as some of the lights turned off and others turned on.

“Why does everything at this school always break?” Skyler asks watching the sign flicker. She felt another wind pass Von her shoulder as she was Frozen a little Von the weird, dark feeling of it.

Below, Shawn stood in front of the large linebacker man as he headed in for the tackle.

“Come on Shawn! Get your head in the game!” The coach yells from the sidelines as this makes Shawn think about what happened to Lillyth. ‘HEAD in the game’. The linebacker then grabbed him and tossed him aside easily as he fell to the ground.

Over on the side lines the drunken janitor wobbled around and vomited as he fell onto the key turning it on the machine as the engine started. The starting of the engine made it all vibrate as the six pack began to Bewegen to the edge.

The referee blew the whistle as he counted the toss as a foul. Everyone started resetting the field as the team mate set the football in front of Shawn as he started to set for the kick to the goal line. Shawn runs vorwärts-, nach vorn and thrusts out a kick as he sends the ball into the air.

The ball flies through the goal line but also hit’s the face of the electric score sign as it bounces back off and hit’s the machine used to make the lines on the field. The 6-pack fell off and landed on the accelerator pedal as it sped off.

The crowd cheers as Shawn turns around towards the team.

“You ever get that feeling when Du know something really bad is about to happen?” Skyler asks Paris but the crowd is cheering too loud to hear her.

The machine runs into the post of the scoreboard as it bashes it off the ground. Sparks fly everywhere from the sign as it begins to plummet downward onto Shawn.

“OH MY GOD!” Carlie screams as she sees it fall.

“Look out!” One of the team mates yell as the sign crushes the unexpected Shawn. The gras, grass getting coated in the bloody innards of Shawn’s body. A bloody helm rolls across the field as the crowd begins screaming and running from the bleachers to see what happened.

Only Sky sits there completely Frozen in fear in her seat.
