You wait till they get in close, then move forward at the last moment and knee then, making them crumple over and spit out blood. Every player is shocked, and the people watching in the stands can't believe it!

The officials run out and call the match over, and then the medics come out and bring the moron some medical attention. You and the rest of the team head back into the locker room.

On the way, your teammates all tell you how awesome it was for you to lay that sucker out like that. You get a lot of high fives and pats on the back, but the hype dies when Coach calls you into the office.

"Look, Candleshaper, that was the biggest incident we've had for a long time. You acted in self-defense, of course, but…that person isn't going to be able to play for a long time."

"I had to defend myself! What was I supposed to do?"

"Maybe just restrain them or push them off you…look, things aren't looking too good right now. The higher-ups are talking as we speak. You may be our best player, but I don't think it's going to go well.

"Listen, wait in the locker room for a bit. I just wanted to warn you things may go bad. I'll fight for you with everything though."

You nod at him and do as he asks.
