Blue and Burgandy vs Carl and Marigold
Gareth POV chapter
---
The match, that had seemed to be a matter entirely based on endurance finally had someone slip up. It could be argued this was good planning on Blue's part, or poor planning on both Carl's and Marigolds. Blue managed, through a combination of luck and skill, to shoot the ball right at the edge of the area Carl 'patrolled'. Both Marigold and Carl went for the ball, not watching the rest of the court, simply acting on instinct…
And they smashed into each other, toppling to the ground. Carl's head was ringing and he would need at least a few moments to recover, but Marigold was running a low level of constant regeneration to keep herself running at peek performance. This meant she was recovered from the impact mere fractions of a second after it happened… the problem with that was she was still falling. Recovered or not she wasn't able to get up in time.
