let's get these teen hearts beating faster, faster

Onyx nodded when Aesop explained the rules. She winced at the thought of accidentally biting too hard and popping the heart. But at least she was glad she was with Aesop, not the younger ones- the jerk and his likely jerk friend. She could not cooperate with Atreyu and would refuse to let him boss her around any more than he already had. When they began, as soon as Atreyu got the heart, she was after him. Very close, but was unsure of exactly how to tackle him and lagged behind about a foot for the whole run, before eventually falling behind further. Though the game was good for exercising and somewhat fun so far, she was disappointed when they scored the first goal and shared a high five. We'll get the next one! Onyx shouted competitively as the next round began. She jogged after Spectra, gasping when she tripped and then giggling quietly.
