Chapter 20: Normal So Far...
The group slowly exits the mall.
Dawn: "So are we just going to go in guns blazing?"
Ashley: "You want to blow our cover?"
The stadium is on the other side of town.
Connor: "But hasn't the team just returned from the last few games?"
They begin to walk more casually.
Jeremy: "It's our first home game this season."
They put their weapons in their back pockets or just hold them over their shoulders.
Dominic: "Well, let's just keep our eyes open."
One and a half hours later...
Jeremy: "Big Bang Stadium."
They've just arrived in front of the stadium.
Dawn: "Eh, not really a fan of sports."
They begin to walk inside.
Connor: "Not your thing?"
Dawn: "Yeah. I'd rather go play some video games in my room."
They walk down the halls until they run into a man with dirty blond hair, light beard, and a black and purple baseball uniform.
Man: "So there's the nerd."
Jeremy: "(smirking) And there's the man who needs some hearing aids."
Jeremy's Dad: "Are you sure, boy?"
Jeremy's Dad notices Ashley, Dawn, and Dominic.
Jeremy's Dad: "Who're these three?"
Ashley: "(sighing) I'm Ashley, she's Dawn, and the last one is Dominic."
Jeremy's Dad: "Huh, well good to see Jeremy actually outside his room."
Jeremy: "So, you wanted to show us the stadium?"
Jeremy's Dad: "Heh, almost forgot."
He begins to walk towards the playing field.
Jeremy's Dad: "Just had some renovations."
They explore the large area, with the team's colors all around the place, trophies lining the halls, and even seeing the rest of the team.
Player 1: "Your kid looks like he's seen more sun than you described."
Jeremy's Dad: "Yeah, looks like he's been with his friends more than usual."
They notice Jeremy's bat.
Player 2: "Looks like he's taken the ball into consideration."
Connor: "He just felt bad about his screw up in PE class."
Jeremy: "(embarrassed) Don't talk about that!"
They all begin to laugh.
Player 3: "Such a shame that the coach is currently running errands."
Dominic: "Sounds like a cool guy."
Half hour later...
Jeremy's Dad: "Well I've got to practice a bit before I come home."
They're about to exit the stadium as Jeremy's Dad heads for the locker room.
Dawn: "Alright, I'm just going to-"
???: "Corruption Wave."
As the group begins to exit, the door locks itself.
Ashley: "Uh oh..."
The players have already left.
Dominic: "This isn't-"
The ceiling above collapses by what seems to be a Flare Wave...
Dominic: "Look out!"
The group dive to either side of the rubble...
