"Is that what Mr. Voice really looks like?" Cuki frowned slightly and looked more disturbed than shocked. "I thought he looked more threatening than just a pink blob. It's kinda gross..."

Cuki seemed excited about the idea of dodge ball, even if it meant using the Voice as the ball. Her inner Saiyan blood began to spark and her more competitive side started to boil. She showed a bright smile and looked more happy than she was a few moments ago. Behind her more gentle side always laid her saiyan spirit, it just took some work getting it out.

"If it's dodge ball we're playing then I'm totally in for it!" Cuki fist bumped the air. "Let's hurry up get the game ready!"
 
The voice was speechless for a moment. He did not expect anyone, maybe aside from few individuals that know his appearance, to not only see him but physically forced him to appear. He reacted to Bernkastel's pinched. "Hey, I ain't a toy!" the voice said. "You surprise me kid, I didn't know you are capable of doing things like this." the voice floated in the air, away from Demi-Fiend's grasp and began to cough. "Well, I'm not a Majin. I'm just the voice. And I'm not a creature! I can still hear your thoughts!" the voice protested. However, he quickly turned to Bernkastel's idea of using him as a ball for dodgeball. "Wait... what? No, this is a bad id-"

Demi-Fiend grabbed him again and shaped him into a ball. "Dodgeball? Hence, I can get behind that!" Demi-Fiend turns to the others. "I haven't played that game since I was a child." He was tossing the voice-ball back and forth between his hands. "Who going to be on what team?"

"Dodgeball?" Spina raised a brow. "What is that?" Spina seems to be unfamiliar with the game.
 
"Oh, that's right. I forget some of you probably aren't acquainted with the sport." Bernkastel chuckled with a sinister tone, thought it sounded childishly playful. "Dodgeball is a game typically played by human children, but anyone may play. You have to eliminate all players of the opposing team by throwing one of four game balls and hitting the opposing player below the shoulders. Each team starts with one ball and then there are two balls evenly spread on the center line at the beginning of the game." She explained to Spina. "I'll simply conjure up the other ones. The only hard rules are that a player is out if they throw a ball caught by the other team, they get hit by a ball thrown by the other team, they hit another player above the shoulders, or they cross the center line." As Bernkastel said this, she drew a line cross the dirt using a twig that moved independently of her hand. "If the ball does bounce off an opposing player and is then caught the thrower will then be out. This is true even if a different player catches the ball. However, if the ball bounces off another ball, the ball is dead. You may use the ball to block, but if the ball is knocked out of your hand while blocking, you will be out."


"So we simply need you all to split into two teams-- traditionally, two team captains are selected and they select their team members accordingly. Demi-Fiend here knows the game, so he can be one team captain. I will be the referee-- I always hated P.E. as a child, but club activities like this were a salvation. Now let's see... hmm, I suppose you all may decide among yourselves who may be the second team captain."
 
The lich says "I know your a bit of a sadist Bernkastel but using the voice as a ball may be a bad choice. If I recall you are helping him get back something to may make him dangerous." It seems that the lich is giving her advice. The lich thinks "Kids these days and there lack of common since." 

The lich says "I going to simply watch."
 
Vegetto kept his arms crossed, turning his attention to Bernkastel as she explained the rules. Kassava scratched the back of her head throughout the explanation, occasionally peering over to Vegetto and nudging his left arm.

"Why does catching the ball make you have to sit out?"

"I don't know."

Kassava frowned, pausing for a second until the next explanation confused her.

"Why can you use the ball to block, but not your hands?"

"I don't know."

Kassava paused again, before turning her head towards Vegetto fully.

"So if the ball gets knocked out of your hands, but you catch it, does that mean you're still out or the other person that threw it?"

Vegetto sighed heavily, glancing to the side.

"Why don't you ask the witch? How the hell am I supposed to know the rules?"

=====

Whis peered down at the two for a moment, forming a small smile and raising his voice.

"If I can make a suggestion here: one of the most important aspects of team building is recognizing strengths and weaknesses of the individuals."

The taller angel gestured towards Vegetto, prompting a perked expression from the fused warrior.

"Seeing as Vegetto here is lacking in valuing others, perhaps having him choose as the second captain would help him learn to cooperate with the team."

Vegetto narrowed his eyes, angrily waving his fist.

"Shut up Whis!! No one asked you!"
 
"I don't think Mr. Vegetto would be a good captain..." Cuki giggled. "He would hog the ball or blow up Mr. Voice!"

Cuki didn't mean any harm behind her words and only looked to be playing around more than anything. She didn't know who she should team up with but thought it would be best if she let the others pick or decided where she would stay. Her intention was to win the match and it was clear that her more playful side was rather adorable. Her smile was genuine and the fiery look in her eyes made her look all too adorable and more like a child.

"I might not be suited to be a captain but I'll definitely make sure my team wins!" Cuki pumped a fist into the air.
 
"Mom loved playing this with me when I was a kid, except she had a special rule where she tanked all the hits and couldn't get out unless we hit her in the face." Raune remarked, briefly lost in fond memories. "After she decided we had given her enough she always threw a ball nearly hard enough to take down one of the family's auras... I, mom... Mom don't leave me..."
 
Brachi, Majin Bara and Gervene were watching the others banter about Dodgeball.

"I recall hearing about that during the classes at Orange Star High thanks to the memories of Gohan and Videl I inherited..." Brachi said as she explained to the others about the game.
 
Spina rubbed his chin and smiled after listening to Bernkastel explained the rules. "Well, that actually sounds interesting. May we use our natural abilities in this competition as well? Might as well add the extra layer to make this even more intense. Besides, I don't think it would be such an issue anyways, Lich." He turns to Whis' suggestion of Vegetto being the team captain. "Sure. I have no objections. He claims that he led a team back in his world and supposedly a super elite, so I want to see such leadership with my own eyes."

"Team Captain huh?" Demi-Fiend smirked. "This raises my spirits quite significantly." He turns to Cuki, nudging her. "Well, you're definitely going to be on my team, then!"  

The voice was getting dizzy being tossed back and forth by Demi-Fiend. "W-well, not everyone can join! It should be a 5 v 5 game, so make things more even."
