Limited Extra Time Novels & Stories

Adrien made a brilliant pass to the winger on the right, who happened to be Theo. The crowd erupted as the ball found its way into the back of the net. “GOAL!” I found myself screaming too, I didn’t even notice when Max came over. His name echoed across the field and for a moment. I understood the hype, he was fantastic and exhilarating to watch. The clock hit the ninety minute mark and there was an added time of three minutes. “Hi June! Nice jersey!” He said through the noise and winked at me. “Hi Max, thank you.”

He said and I had to admit, he had a point. “How about we make another bargain?” He suggested. “Another impossible bargain?” I bit out. “No, I’ll increase the time to fifteen seconds. All you have to do is be five seconds faster than you were the last time.”He informed me and I had to admit, the way he spoke almost made it seem too easy. “And this time I’ll let you choose. Whatever you want, as long as you are able to beat the time, is yours.: Zenith added and my heart beat picked up.

No participant was allowed to stop even if anyone dropped dead in front of them. The last one running from those that managed to make it out alive from this test would also be disqualified. It usually took two hours to jog briskly around the castle but for this test, they were timed at exactly forty minutes. Anyone still running by that time would also be disqualified. As the boisterous delta continued to read the rules, the brave expressions on the faces of those young males began to falter. "And finally," Delta Burke added sagely, "expect the unexpected." The tone of finality in his voice didn't brook any room for argument as the young wolves readied themselves for the match.

Logan said thoughtfully. "Don't worry, we will meet our opponents in the following days." Kevin was grilling fish but still joined in the conversation. The allowed time for this contest is ten days, a reasonable time the organizers calculated. If the participant is not disadvantaged, he can reach the destination within nine days, or if he runs non-stop, he can reach the destination much sooner. The extra time is for teams to fight each other and recover their health. I don't participate in the conversation; I listen to everyone's opinions. After eating, Amanda, Kevin, and I slept; Logan and Michael were on night watch. A night security guard must be in case our cards are stolen while we slee

“Six minutes.” Eli paused, his brows raised in confusion. “What?” “You will kneel for six minutes.” Eli opened his mouth again. “Wait, what the hell? You can’t just—” “Ten minutes for countering me and fifteen for using a profanity.” “What?! That’s not fair! You—” “Twenty.” Eli sputtered. “But I didn’t—” “Thirty.” He shut up immediately as the fight drained out of him. He couldn’t believe his fucking ears.

“You can’t start yet. Emma isn’t back.” Davies looked up from his clipboard, offering her an apologetic shrug. “I understand your concern, miss,” he replied calmly. “but the rules state that the game lasts for exactly forty minutes. After forty minutes, any person who is still out there on the trails is automatically disqualified from the scoring if they have not returned.” Olivia snapped instantly. “You think I care about this bullshit game? Get in there and find my best friend right now! You said this entire place was safe, so where the hell is Emma?”

The compere said out loud and as some people stopped cheering, he added further, "Please calm down, everyone... Let me complete" Everyone stopped cheering and Sheena stopped jumping. "I wanted to clarify that... Anderson High's answer was indeed correct but... They answered after the fifteen seconds" Compere said and my eyes widened as he continued, "They answered at 18th second. I called them out when the timer hit fifteen seconds but they were eager to answer and they did... But after the time got up. So that gives them a negative point as per the rules and that... Gives the Lincoln Park a bonus point which actually makes them the winners of this competition..." The compere said out loud a

But he had no idea what I was capable of. "Ten laps," I challenged. It wasn't a full-sized pool, making ten laps a fairly short distance. "Fine. What do I get when I win?" His cocksure grin said he already considered the prize his. I considered. A kiss flashed through my mind, but I dismissed it. "A foot massage. Every day for a week." "Sweet! And what do you get if you win?" "The same thing, of course." I moved to the pool's edge. "Ready?"

Robin asked, frowning. "That's because the glass box would be elevated about ten feet off the ground when the match starts. You will seat a few metres away from each other and are not allowed to look anywhere else, but at the screen and your control pad. This match has a duration of ninety minutes, just like a real football match. You will take a break of ten minutes after forty-five minutes. After that break, the remaining forty-five minutes of the match would be completed," Roger said.

I laughed and said, "I just don't want you to stress yourself." "It's a harmless game, I'll be fine," he smiled. "Everyone listen to the rules of the game. You are not allowed to get rough, it's simply a friendly game which would last for only forty minutes. Twenty minutes for each half. If at the end of the game none of the teams has any points, we will do shootouts," Grant announced. "I'm sure everyone knows how to play football, I'd like to score a lot of goals in Oyinda's net," Michael said giving Oyinda a meaningful look.
