It was always white when Rose made a jump to a new universe. It was similar to a flash of lightning but caused her whole vision to blank out. Involuntarily she squeezed her eyes shut against the bright light, causing her to see a different white wall. A white wall which brought back painful memories filled with screams of take me back, smudged mascara, and a feeling of hopelessness.

It was the last practice of the year and we had the biggest game of the year the next day. “ Wrap him up! Drive your feet! Catch the ball!” yelled the coaches every minute.We were having a great year so far with our record at 6-1-1. This practice I was working extra hard because I was starting on both sides of the ball. I hadn’t played most of the year because the first week of practice, I got injured and was out for a week and a half. I had been trying my hardest in games and at practice, but I

He raised his foot back as hard as he could and hit the ball forcefully when.. he made it in! This is just one of many significant moments

As all my teammates ran up to congratulate me on my 55 yard touchdown I realized that we were still in this game. As I stood in the end zone, I finally

Jeremy, my coach, was giving us our half time speech. We all huddled in a circle after and some of my teammates make a speech about what we need to do better and how we are playing. Once the referee blows the whistle we jog onto the field. I was playing center back with sadie. The score was 3-0 when the second half started. The referee blew the whistle and the game started.
