Chapter 8 - The Game Begins

''Ohio State Buckeyes fought their way through the playoffs all the way to the National Championship were they faced number 1 seed Denver Pioneers In a wild game, OSB would tie the game and send it to Overtime, but they also get a penalty with 4 seconds left that carried into the extra frame. In overtime, the Denver's started with the ball on a man up and OSB Goalie Harry smothered a Connor Kelly shot to give OSB a chance. On the other end, Chris Cloutier got a shot on the back side, but Goalie Bryan made an incredible save and in the resulting scrum Denver got a penalty. Travis Lewtone would then find a lane on the man up and bury the game winning goal giving OSB the 14-13 win and making them the first unseeded team to win a National Championship.''

Shania was jumping as she saw the live news of Lacrosse Championship.

Her son, Travis, have gained his dignity again!

''Travis Lewtone has owned the Championship once again! For a year after his comeback, Travis Lewtone of Ohio State Buckeyes have won the National Championship! They're going to Olympics!''

The broadcasters said.

''How are you feeling now that your team is moving to Olympics?'' a reporter asked the coach, Gerome.

''I have never been proud of my sons. It's unbelievable. This setup of my players is the best. So proud.''

''Yes. You must be full of enjoy, back to you on the studio.''

''The lacrosse stick has two parts, the head and the shaft. There are three parts to the head: the scoop, sidewall, and pocket. The scoop is the top of the stick that affects picking up ground ball as well as passing and shooting. The sidewall is the side of the head that affects the depth of the head and the stiffness. The pocket is the leather or nylon mesh attached to the sidewall and scoop. A wider pocket allows an easier time catching balls, but will also cause less ball control. A narrower pocket makes catching harder, but allows more ball retention and accuracy...''

Laster read out.

Michele gave birth to twins, Lachele Shania and Lavis Jean.

They are currently at Shania's home and watched the finals of National Championship for Lacrosse.

''...The ball is made of solid rubber. It is typically white for men's lacrosse, or yellow for women's Lacrosse; but is also produced in a wide variety of colors, such as yellow, orange or lime green according to the Men's Lacrosse Rules and Interpretations. In the college level the Lacrosse ball is orange. I got to create a new business for sports. Seems like good money.''

Laster commented and fed Lachele.

''You better sponsor Ohio State Buckeyes. Travis will make you good money.'' Michele said.

''That's a good idea.''

Travis and the team went out to celebrate.

''Cheers!'' Gerome happily initiated the drinks. ''Good game, team. Good game.''

''Can't believe your return got us the National Championship.'' Calvin happily hugged his friend.

''Your a four-leaf clover, Travis.'' Harry said.

''We got lucky! So excited to be back at the Olympics!''

''Sure it is!''

''You were so hyper today, Travis. Why is that?'' Gerome asked.

''The game today is for my grandfather and Namie. I hope they've seen it.''

''Condolence for your grandfather.'' Ray said and drank the whole mug of beer in one shot.

Travis grandfather died of oldness two months ago. Shania inherited what was promised to her.

A month ago, Shania divorced her husband and it was approved immediately. Travis and Michele changed their surnames as Lewtone, as Shania's surname. Although Michele only changed her middle name.

Seven months ago, Michele and Laster got married and it was all over the news.

''Do not drink, Ray!'' Travis said to his teammate that has the lowest alcohol tolerance. One glass and Ray's drunk.

''Men's field lacrosse protective equipment contains a pair of gloves, elbow pads, shoulder pads, helmet, mouth guard, and cleats. Pads differ in size and protection from player to player based on position, ability, comfort and preference. For example, many attack players wear larger and more protective elbow pads to protect themselves from checks thrown at them while defenders typically wear smaller and less protective pads due to their smaller possibility of being checked and goalies usually wear no elbow pads due to the very limited opportunities of being checked. A goalkeeper must also wear a large protective chest pad to cover their stomach and chest and a plastic neck guard that connects to the chin of their helmet to protect them from shots hitting their windpipe. In addition, male goalkeepers are required to wear a protective cup....''

Ray said which obviously confirmed his drunk.

''Men's box players wear more protective gear than field players due to the increased physical contact and more permissive checking rules. Cross-checking in the back is allowed by the rules. Runners wear larger and heavier elbow pads and stronger shoulder pads that extend down the back of the player. Most players wear rib pads as well. Box goalies wear equipment very similar to ice hockey goalies, the leg blockers are somewhat smaller, altho---''

Ray puke and blacked out.

''Ray's out!''

The team laughed at him.

Travis was proclaimed innocent after the re-opening of the case that happened 4 years ago.

His ex-teammate, Carlito was imprisoned for 6 months and could not return to the Lacrosse.

''I heard Carlito is now a Tequila-maker. His tequilas are awesome.'' Gerome said.

''Let's not talk about him. It hurts my pride whenever I think he used to be my teammate.'' Calvin said and poured drinks to everyone.

They drink and drink until midnight.

Travis went home and slept tightly.

Shania prepared a soup for Travis's hangover.

''Thanks mom.'' Travis groaned from the headache.

''Congratulations on winning.''

''Thank you, again.'' Travis chuckled.

Three days went by, Travis could only think of Namie. It's been a year. He never had any sex with other girls anymore after he and Namie did it. He masturbates, but he never had sex.

Namie was in his mind through day and night, even in practice or in a match.

''You still cannot found Namie?''

''Yeah. How 'bout you? Found your girl yet?''

''Nah. After that night, I found her.'' Calvin said.

The two are showering for their practice for the Olympics. They just got a three day vacation and came to the field once again. They just finished their daily training.

''We just talk about her life and mine and I got drunk. I woke up in a room with her and she said she'll just buy something but never returned.''

''Strangely, they both have the same white tattoos in their eyes.''

''Are they somewhat accomplice?''

''Not sure.'' Calvin said and rubbed soap in his back. It was 7 in the evening. It's just the two of them left.

''Never thought I'd end up like this. What if we can't find them?''

''We will find them. Again and again.'' Calvin simply answered.

Travis finished first and wipe his body with a towel. He covered his manhood with it.

''I'll be waiting in the locker, Calvin!'' He said as he opened the door.

''Yeah, yeah. I'll be there in a minute.''

Travis went outside and turned around to closed the door.

As soon as he turns back, he saw a bright light. It was burning his eyes a bit so he covered his head with his vacant hand, his left hands holding the tips of his towel.

Travis heard the murmurs of people.

He wondered why he can hear the people's murmurs as he adjust to the hot.

As soon as he adjusted, he saw people.

People in strange outfits, the field turned into a city.

People are watching him.

''WHAT THE FUCK?!''
