DJ and the Damian squad rushed The house. "Dad we're gonna Play CRUEL BALL!" Amadeus Gave notice. Damian said, "Oh Yeah." He put his hands on both His sons shoulders and said. "Fellows first of all it's called Crude ball. But we play Brutally No rules. So we renamed it Cruel ball." "It's not a sport for the Tender or delicate folks. It's Bloody." Damian looked at them Both with a serious expression. But they reciprocated. "We Understand Dad." We're playing With uncle Julius's sons and Uncle CJ sons." Uncle CJ was at the front door. "Hey I understand you're up for A game of Cruel ball." Damian Said, "yeah and I guess you'll be Participating." CJ said, "Damn Right." Then Damian Said, "Well I guess I am as well." They punched each other Saying, "See you out there." Damian said, "My brother." Damian turned to the family And announced "my beloved." We are about to indulge in A WAR! WE ARE HAKIM! GLADIATORS BABY! DJ Was the ever so excited teenager. They Headed out to the courts To discuss their strategy. Damian said, Alright sons we're Ten to ten. We will be stepping On each other's feet arms Shoulders. No rules no apology. Keep right on. It's similar to Basketball but you don't Bounce the ball. Now, our home Is opposite theirs. It looks like A Basketball court. See two Baskets. You have to possess The ball before the other team Possesses it. You make it to Their home and deposit it in The basket while their Bruising you trying to stop you. All the while your team is Protecting you. The ball will be Thrown into the air. You jump And try to handle the ball before Your cousins. Remember don't Kill, only bruise. BLOOD!! FAMILY!! the grandfather was on the Side court prepared to throw the Ball. Everybody Looked nervous. Dolly and Molly watched the Beginnings of Bold Brotherly Brutality. The ball was thrown. The grandfather announced "let the Brutality begin, blood sport!!" The teams began racing for the Ball cousin Rico caught it and raced toward the opponent's home. His team protected him But the gladiators were predators they persued wresting the ball away. It was in Desharah's Possession. Desharah ran for The opponents court Damian Was there to assist and she Made the shot and scored! that Was one point for the gladiators And it didn't cost Desharah to Much blood. She had just a few Scratches. Damian congradulated Her. "Alright baby girl!" That's my Child. Yeaaah!" One point for the GLADIATORS the grandfather kept score. Zero for the WARRIORS. the ball Wasn't in anybody hands and everybody Pursued it. Amadeus dove for it But an older teen cousin did the Same. Amadeus captured it first and the Warriors dragged Amadeus by His foot onto their home but DJ Prevented any further Brutality. DJ snatched the ball and went For the Warriors basket but They converged on him like Flies on rotten meat. The Gladiators were set on defense. Everyone was in a knot but Desharah tried to peel players Away from DJ until she saw the Ball but the other team took Possession making the shot. One point for their team. The warriors celebrated their Small victory. The ball was Kicked away out of bounds. Jordan retrieved it and threw it To DJ. And both Damian and CJ called time out. The teams huddled separately, discussing their Options. DJ said, "so What are We looking like." And a light rain Came. Damian said, "How are my guys Feeling? You want to keep on?" The gladiators roared. "Yeaaah Dad" Damian said fine we have One point to their one point and It's raining now." Justin said, "Dad we'll handle it just fine." The grandfather stepped to the Side, announced the score and Threw the ball into the air DJ And cousin Michael both had Hands on the ball DJ wrested it Away but Nahdi, Michael's Brother was next to DJ and Pounced on DJ. They both Fell to the ground and the Warriors responds but the Gladiators represented as DJ Attempted to stand while holding The ball. But Nahdi wouldn't Release it and the gladiators Began to surround him but the Warriors did the same. DJ Pulled the ball then Amadeus Snatched the ball. The warriors We're in desperate pursuit. Amadeus thew the ball to Damian Damian ran for The basket but He was trounced by CJ. Damian Fell hard to the asphalt as it Rained harder. The Adults called The game.
