I Cant Miss - Chapter 121 Military Bums

The next day the matches finally started as a crowd showed up to watch the matches, there was nothing else to do so even the higher-ups showed up to watch the drama unfold.

The first match was a soccer match, all the matches were going to be five on five. One of the officers came on the field holding the soccer ball in his hand with a whistle in his mouth, he blew it to officiate the start of the match.

Nana was the goalie while the others played any position they felt comfortable with. I was, of course, a striker, as soon as we started the match. Mod got the ball and passed it over to 3, 3 dribbled it up a little bit but I froze time and stole the ball from him.

They got mad as they chased after me and tried to get the ball back but I was too fast for them as I maneuvered my way to the goal post and kicked it as hard as I could as the ball went into the air. Just when their goalie was about to save it the ball curved and went to the other side of the goal post and it the net giving us our first goal.

Everyone started clapping while the others were yelling GOALLLLL!!!!!. We went to do a little celebration after scoring. Mod was so mad he started yelling at his guys to play better. The game continued until it was 10-0 as the other team gave up and we won the first game.

My teammates were all laughing at them as we had enjoyed ourselves, everybody was able to get a goal in except for Nana who is the goalie and at one point I even wanted Nana to get out of the goal post and try to go score one so that we will all have a goal but he rejected that offer saying that they are already down so we don’t have to keep kicking them.

I nodded at him as I thought this guy is truly humble, we rested for an hour as we went to grab something to eat and get ready for the next match. At this point all bets were going towards us, so the payout wasn’t as good as the last game.

I had also placed some bets on my team and I had won quite a bit, Rex was also smart enough to bet on himself and believed in my skills. The next game we were playing flag football we had a couple of flags tied up against our clothes.

We started this game and I was the quarterback of course. We got the ball first since we won the last game. I set up the play as my teammates ran around trying to get open. I saw a Rex open and tossed him the ball. Rex ran down the field full speed ahead avoiding the defenders.

Rex was definitely my go-to man in this game as he was the fastest person in our team, he slowly maneuvered his way until he got the touchdown. I think Rex was the only one who scored in this game as we also blew them out. Mod and his crew were so angry that I could hear the grinding of his teeth from where I was which was a few yards away.

Once again they had lost another game as the crowd cheered, Mod started to feel a little regret for challenging us but after a few seconds, he got over it as he lifted himself up and started pep-talking his team that they need to get themselves together so they can get this win otherwise they’ll be losing $1,000.

When a team heard that they will be losing $1,000 they all straightened up as they got the motivation to want to win once again. The next match was shooting targets which Mod and his team felt confident to win.

Since we were already on the field they started setting up the targets close and far. We were being judged based on the number of targets we can hit using a small handheld gun. We were all used to guns so the crowd wasn’t too scared to be a little close while watching.

Well, I don’t think anybody was scared to get shot at this point after joining the army, as everybody was ready to die from day one when they signed up and they had notified us and told us of what we were doing. We were basically giving our life for the country after making the oath so there was no fear within us.

Mod and his crew went first as they started shooting at the targets, Mod would have been perfect if he hadn’t missed one of the shots, as it was a little bit from the center. The rest of Mods crew wasn’t so good, even one of them missed completely which caused Mod to fume in frustration as he said “if you can’t shoot a damn gun you should probably be out of my team.

This caused the guy to shutter as he says” sorry boss I’m not too good with guns”, Mod ignored him as it was finally our turn to shoot. After practicing on the island with guns my whole team knew the inside and out of guns and we were all able to hit the target directly.

Ponder and Nana messed up a little bit but I picked up their slack when it was finally my turn. I stepped back a little bit just to entertain the crowd as they started cheering for me. I stepped back a little bit more as I said:” do you guys want more”? causing the whole crowd to react saying “yes”!

I stepped back a little bit more and I shot my shot, we were allowed only five shots so I shot it bang bang bang bang, all them went in the center and then for my last shot I looked away, pointed my gun up and then putting it back down and shot it once again. All hit the center knocking one bullet after another outside.

When they went to go check it they were all shocked as they said he hit the center he hit every single bullet he shot causing the crowd to start cheering in surprise as I had shot at a target without even looking. The higher-ups had stars in their eyes as they thought that kid is a genius.

I went by Mod and said” get my money ready buddy” causing him to frown as he said,” well you have two more matches and if you lose a single one you lose money”. In my head, I thought if I didn’t have that ability then it probably would have been a fair game while shaking my head. I walked away as I said, “sure why not just keep going”.
