Chapter 865 - Slick

"Still can't believe everyone goes through all the trouble for a Junior League. I mean...…for me.....a Scholarship would have been fine."

"You never even got a Dilpoma."

"Junior League?"

"Uhhh."

"Jacklyn, didn't tell you."

"Tell us what?"

"The Little ones are too small for her."

"But...….isn't their like a height barrier or something for Pros?"

"Hey. I'm not tiny."

"Way to use your cheat code."

"I'm not cheating. My other teammates see a game as a game, but me; I see it as a training ground. And, the little training ground….."

"Wasn't enough to soak her foot."

"Eyes on the road, Eric. Precious cargo back here."

"I know you are, Miss."

"So are they."

"Of course."

"So, what do you all want to do first? Meet the locals, play some sports, check out some famous dishes people swear by?"

"Do Burgers and a piece of Pizza count as dishes?"

"You mean a Pie?"

"No. I mean a piece of pizza."

"Oh."

"By the way, I will have to warn you.

Elwin, they have these things installed in every building, residential and otherwise. It's called Sprinklers. They go off everytime they feel fire, or smoke."

"So...."

"Try not to trip them. But….in the case you do go off, they do have Fire Extinguishers. Which...…Ruby....you are going to have be careful of."

"What about me?"

"Ifrastructure. They do have swimming pools but those are mostly 'private residents.'. I do have a swimming pool in my living room though. Just let me call my head of security, Carl. He is the onle one that I trust who keeps an 24/7 tab on me inside my room. I'll just tell him I brought along a mermaid and he will make sure that you will be able to swim comfortably without fear of exposure."

"And what are in Swimming Pools?"

".....I'll see if he can get it as suitable for you taste as possible without adding any chlorine,"

"Color?"

"No. I said Chlorine."

"Oh."

"Anything else?"

" I bet you get into everything for free, right?"

"Ummmmmmmmmm."

"......Is everything ok?

Jacklyn?"

"Say your last goodbyes to the Kindgom. We're leaving the edge of the woods. Rosa's Palace. Next time we touch down here won't be in for a while."

"Take it, you're gonna sleep on the plane?"

"No.

Coach gave me some new moves I have to study. Time to get into the frame of mind. Study other teams tactics, games, and skill levels....all on this team Tablet."

"You really do leave everything when you board this bus."

"As Coach says, you enter with two bags, play with one."

"What about leaving with more than you carried?"

"...That's what you girls are for."

"Hey...…..hey....hey. If I knew I was a baggage girl then I would have gotten off a long time ago."

"Good luck. The speed alone could...…"

"I rode a Dragon. I know how speed works."

*Clip...…..clip...….clip*

"Also.....their are seatbelts."

*Bi....diiaannng*

"What's that?"

" 'All Passengers, please fasten your seatbelt and keep your arms and legs inside the Bus at all times.'"

"Fine."

*Click*

"......We're here."

"See, I didn't even need a seatbelt."

"Better to have and not need, then need and not have.

You'll thank yourself if you keep it on.

Thanks, Eric. Until next time."

"Until next time.

Knock em dead, Hi-C."

"I always do."

"That's not a Jet. That's a Yacht in the sky."

"Get ready for nine long hours of it."

"When will we touch down?"

"Around Ten."

"And you're still going to practice?"

"No. Just meeting the players, meeting our coach, and having him blablabla about all the rules, procedures, techniques and anything new.Plus, our weigh down and all that fun stuff."

"I guess being a Player is a full time job. On and off the court."
