(Jaaliyahs a dazzler, do majorette, and run track. Currently tonight shes dancing on the sidelines cheering for Crenshaw because track and football had different game days.)

All of a sudden they change the play leaving everyone confused but Jaaliyah. She was around Spencer a lot so she already knew the opponents were waiting for a specific play so they had to switch it up.

Chris throws the ball to Spencer. Spencer runs dodging all the players trying to attack him. He successfully made the touchdown. Jaaliyah ran over to Spencer and jumped in his arms. She quickly wrapped her legs around his torso so she wouldn't fall.

"You did it Spence!" She laughed as she hugged him

"Obviously I couldn't have d-" his sentence was cut short when gunshots started going off.

POW POW POW

Spencer threw them to the ground making sure to shield the girl just incase the bullets came near them.

15 minutes later

Spencer and Jaaliyah watched the man get carried into the ambulance. They both knew 9/10 he wasn't going to make it. As they were saying their goodbyes, walking off of the field, a dark toned man came up behind them.

"Spencer James? Jaaliyah Moore?" ???
Jaaliyah and Spencer jumped a little and turned around

"My bad I didn't mean to startle you. Geez it's like one minute you're scoring then the next-" Jaaliyah and Spencer cut him off

"Another day in the neighborhood" They said in sync shrugging.

"Yeah...Billy Baker Varsity Coach, for track and football" the dark skinned man greeted them as they shook his hand

"I'll cut to the case...I've had my eye on y'all for awhile. Spencer, you got strong hands, match up well against single coverage, I saw that film where you scored 4 touchdowns. Jaaliyah, you got quick feet, participate in majority of the events in track, I blink and you're gone" he said causing her to laugh

"Yeah...I need y'all to come play for me" It was silent for awhile til Spencer spoke up. Jaaliyah was still trying to process.

"Play for you?" Spencer questioned

"Play for me" Mr.Baker repeated

"But you can't recruit" Spencer sighed

"If we come play for you...he's benched for 3 months and I can't run for 1 month" Jaaliyah pointed out. There's no way she would transfer just to not play at all.

"Not with me. I can get around that...I can offer y'all something Crenshaw can't" Mr.Baker reassured

"And that is??" She questioned with a confused face

"A better education and a safer school"

pfft. Don't nobody give a damn about that. Jaaliyah thought as she stood silently looking at the man

"You must not know who I am in the streets" She laughed. He looks at her with a confused face indicating that he didn't know

"I'm Tyrones lil sister...I'm also known as "tHe
QuEeN oF cReNsHaW" She mocked every person that has said that. She hated that dumb name & wish people didn't call her that. It all started when her dad was alive.
