Jay and Coach Jenkins were seated on the bleachers, looking at the rule book.

“I could really use a tough guy like you,” said Coach Jenkins. He looked very official in a yellow tourney hat, a blue vest, and a pale yellow T-shirt. There was a jersey slung over his shoulder. “The team’s a bunch of princes, if you know what I mean,” he added.

“You’re telling me,” said Jay, closing the rule book. “It’s all ‘After you, old chum. Oh, pardon me, did I bump you?’”

Coach chuckled.

“Where I come from, it’s ‘Prepare to die, sucker!’” Jay threw down the rule book and stood up. “As my father says, the only way to win is to make sure everyone else loses! You rip—”

“Jay,” Coach said. He stood up. “Jay! Jay, Jay, Jay. Let me explain a ‘team.’” He guided Jay to sit back down on the bleachers with him. “It’s like a family,” Coach said.

“You do not want to be at my house at dinnertime,” said Jay.

Coach nodded. “Okay, okay,” he said. “You know how a body has a lot of different parts? Legs, elbows, ears. But they all need each other. Well, that’s what a team is—different players who work together to win. Make any sense?”

Jay looked thoughtful. “Can I be the fist?” He made a fist.

Coach laughed. He took the jersey off his shoulder and held it out to Jay.

It was blue and had Jay’s name and the number eight on it in gold.

With a smile, Jay took it and put it on over his leather vest. He thanked Coach Jenkins and took off down the field and back to the dorms. He threw open the door to Mal and Evie’s room, whooping and showing off his jersey. Carlos whistled from where he sat with Dude on the floor, looking at something on his laptop. Evie was bending over a mountain of homework and copying two sets of answers from her magic mirror. Mal leafed through the spell book on her bed, searching for answers.

“Did your plan work with Jane?” Jay asked Mal. “Are you going over to see the wand?”

“Do you think that I would be going through every single spell in this book if I hadn’t completely struck out?” said Mal.

Her friends exchanged looks.

“Someone is in a bad mood,” said Carlos.

“My mom’s counting on me,” said Mal, flicking Carlos’s head. “I can’t let her down!”

“We can do this!” said Jay.

His three friends stared at him.

“If we stick together,” said Jay.

“And we won’t go back until we do,” said Mal. “’Cause we’re rotten…”

“To the core,” they all said in unison.

“Oh, yeah,” said Evie nonchalantly. “I found out that Fairy Godmother blesses Ben with the wand at coronation and we all get to go.”

Mal’s eyes widened.

“I have nothing to wear, of course,” said Evie.

Mal looked at her incredulously.

There was a knock at the door.

“What?” asked Evie.

“Hold that thought,” Mal told Evie. She got up and opened the door.

Ben stood in the hall, smiling. “Hey, Mal!” he said. “I didn’t see you guys today.
