Round 2: Science Nerds United VS Synonym Slots Squad

By: Ashleigh Green

This round the Science Nerds United, Mrs. Boock, Mrs. Derosa, Mrs. Henrich, Mrs. Hoelle, and Mrs. Breetz. And on the other side, Synonym Slots Squad we have Dr. O'Hara, Mrs. Gazin, and Mrs. Thaeler. Who will win this round and advance further in the game?

Mrs. Breetz, Mrs. Boock, and Mrs. Derosa arrived to the school building that day with dry ice in their arms. The team had decided to leave the smoke from the ice to give them an advantage.

The Synonym Slots Squad wanted to do a sneak attack against the Science Nerds United, stealthily making their way towards the science hall. As they reached the top of the stairs, smoke filled their vision but still they push on.

But they couldn't have expected what would come next.

The Synonyms Slots split up, Mrs. Gazin went straight firing her Nerf gun in front of her... only to find out her foam bullets didn't hit anyone. Well anyone living as they landed on the skeleton Mrs. Breetz was hiding behind. Though unfortunately for Mrs. Gazin, Mrs. Boock and Mrs. Derosa joined Mrs. Breetz and the three v. one soon turned into a victory for the Science Nerds as one perfectly timed shot from Mrs. Boock knocked her out of the competition.

As this was going on, Mrs. Thaeler went for a different strategy and ended up facing Mrs. Hoelle. The western theme music played suddenly in the background as one of Mrs. Gazin's bullets somehow hit one of the computers and the SMART Board started projecting the sound.

The two stared at each other for a few moments before the beat dropped and then it became a flurry of Nerf bullets raining down from both sides. The smoke from the dry ice provided a disadvantage for both sides but in the end, Mrs. Hoelle's Nerf sharpshooting skills gave her the victory over Mrs. Thaeler.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Henrich, who was grading papers during this time instead of focusing on the fighting happening, was engaged in conversation with Dr. O'Hara. He also seemingly forgot about the combat not too far away from them both.

But even friendly conversation couldn't save him.

Mrs. Henrich decided that this would be the perfect moment to unknowingly gain the Science Nerds United the victory. So, while Dr. O'Hara was talking, Mrs. Henrich pulled out her Nerf gun and fired a foam bullet directly at the perfectly tied tie Dr. O'Hara was wearing.

She had given the Science Nerds United the win and moved them forward in the competition.
