(30 minutes later)
“Coming to you, Princess!” You set the ball to Sarah, right at the net.
“Got it, Dweeb.” Sarah jumps high for the spike.
“No you don’t” Chad roars. He and Megan jump up to double block her.
You had decided that the group would do sand volleyball. It was a physical activity to do until swimming was available. You had to wait for the tide to settle down. You knew it wasn’t what Caspian wanted but you thought of a way that he could still join the group. If he and Amanda could be referees, he could be involved and not likely to get hit in the face with the volleyball. With that activity settled, You and Sarah were put on the same team with Madi and Nick, giving a more average size team with the dominating force of a tall blonde beauty. Megan and Chad were on the other team being the second and third tallest, being a destructive duo. Davis was an all-arounder like you and Melody fit a libero and setter very well, despite being an indoor person.
“There is a hole!” Sarah yells. She smacks the spike to the side of their wall.
“I knew you would.” Davis dives to catch the spike low. He had been prepared for that.
“Get ready.” Melody moves into position to get the second bounce.
“On it.”
“Let’s do this.”
Megan and Chad move to the far sides of the net. Forcing you and Sarah to follow, defending their attackers. You had Megan and Sarah had Chad. Sarah was the strongest on your team, easily getting over the net to defend and attack. Chad wasn’t breaking through her. The ball would come to Megan.
“Ta-da” Melody sets it right into the middle. The only person there is Davis coming up front from recovering off the ground. They were going for a sly attack.
“Shit” Nick lunges from the back to try and catch the little tap from Davis to drop the ball onto your side.
“Point, Megan’s team. The score is now 13-6” Caspian declares. The game was going in Megan’s favor. Your team started strong at the beginning with Sarah dominating but they counterattacked with double teaming with Chad and Megan, stopping her, leaving you to deal with Davis coming up to block you. Nick and Madi were left catching the shots in the back and setting you and Sarah up.
“Chad’s serve.” Amanda points out.
“Dang it. That’s bad.” Nick worries. Chad had a devastating jump serve.
“We got this. Bend your knees and be firm and flexible.” You go to rally your team. You were not going to let them get down. “His serves are strong but we can be unyielding like a fortress, withstanding his blows. Catch it and we can turn this around!” If a point could be scored off of Chad’s serve, it would boost the team's morale and spirit. The game’s momentum could be swung.
“Yes, my lord.” Nick and Madi speak in unison. They giggle after it as they poke fun at you.
“Hey!” Thrown off balance by the joke, you got a little red in the face by them teasing your divine blood.
“Focus.” Madi points to the otherside. You had to look over to Chad.
Chad tosses the ball and does his jump serve. It is amazing as ever as it soars like a bullet over the net, directly towards the corner, Nick’s corner. Nick dives to catch the sneaky corner.
“GGAAHH!”
Nick grunts as he hits the powerful serve. He received the serve but it was sent soaring way out of bounds. This was bad. You needed that point to rally your team. An out of bound ball wasn’t as bad as not hitting the serve but it was still something that would boost the other team's spirit.
You had to rescue your team. With the sudden motivation to save your team, you feel the divine energy build up inside you. It goes and permeates through your limbs. A strength, dexterity, agility, stamina, and speed that you shouldn’t be able to do suddenly becomes possible.
“I got it.”
You sprint across the sand as if the sand wasn’t a hindrance. Limbs are a blur as you book it to the out of bounds ball, catching up to it. You jump long and far into a dive to catch its descent. Putting one arm out, you hit the ball back towards your team's side.
“Nice save, Dweeb!” Sarah cheers at your amazing feet.
After spitting the sand out you just ate saving the ball, you push yourself up to see how your save is faring. There is a slight disappointment as you see the ball arch towards the back of your court. They would have to get it over, probably in a very advantageous state for Megan’s team. You have to shove yourself up to stand up to dash back to the front.
You didn’t have to worry. Madi took a few steps back, past the backline. She dashed forward into a short sprint. She bent her knee and leapt high into the air. Everyone’s mouth was gaping open as Madi soared higher than the net. She had the form and timing right. She spiked the ball from the backline directly into the corner. The whole other team just stands there in surprise by Madi’s attack
“Yes! One point for the on fire lady!” Madi pumps her fists high into air in triumph. Her bang is the strongest shade of purple you had ever seen. She does a little victory stomping dance with Nick coming to give her a high five. “That’s me” Madi flexes by curling her biceps in front of her. A six pack flares up with the flex.
“That was amazing.” Davis congratulates her. He had collected the ball. He tosses it over. “How did you learn to jump so high?”
Madi was orange as she laughs with Nick but shifts to white when Davis asks that question. She goes blue as she tries to rush an idea in her head of how to explain it. She had just displayed much of her succubus strength and ability with that. She was 5’4” in her human form and she just jumped like a basketball pro. You all were trying to think of a solution to explain Madi’s physical capabilities to Megan and Davis. Was now the time to test and see what knowledge they had about succubus like Uncle Joe asked? You were ready to have Sarah erase their memories, just a few minutes.
Nick came to her rescue. He wraps his arm around her shoulder to emphasize that they had some closeness, making them look like a couple.
“Twigs and I have been watching an anime for a while now. It is a volleyball anime called Haikyu! We got motivated to try and jump as high as one of the protagonists. I gave up but Twig kept working on it until she achieved it. She was able to pull it off at the party to surprise even Jessi, a basketball player.” Nick acts humble with his supposed failure and praises Madi. He was playing the self-conscious boyfriend failing while his girlfriend succeeded very well. It worked very well as Madi was blushing and her bang was turning magenta.
“Jessi even asked her to join the basketball team. She was so impressed by her.” Sarah adds. She is quick to give credibility to the story.
“Impressive. I have to ask what your workout routine was. I need to work on my hops a bit.” Davis seemingly attacks the hole in the story. How did Madi get that good?
“If you start jumping higher, you might start being afraid of ghosts.” Megan gives a fake warning to him about trying to jump higher. Definitely a Luigi joke
“You will have to watch the anime first.” The ball was handed to Nick to serve. “There will be no desire to grind unless you do.” Nick diverts the question.
“That’s the power of anime. Gives you the spirit to go Plus Ultra!” Chad pumps his chest, giving Madi more excuses to not reveal her nonexisting secret workout.
Melody looks at her hands as the conversation finishes. She seems baffled by the whole anime discussion. It was as if her world was shattering. “Have I been watching anime incorrectly?” She ponders how she wasn’t able to do the same things as Madi.
“I think it is more than that.” Sarah whispers with you only able to hear her.

(A little later)
The score was 20-20 and everyone was itching to get the lead. With a win by 2 rule, it was a battle to score two points in a row. Your team had recovered from the deficit earlier with Madi becoming a powerhouse with her jumps. You switched with Madi to be in the back to emphasize this strength.
“Got it.” Nick receives the return from the other side. You move to set it.
“To you, Princess.”
Giving the set to Sarah, you see that Sarah jumped a bit too early. Megan and Chad realize this. Only Chad jumps to block while Megan waits for Sarah to tap it over.
You feel the demonic energy rise and the red aura around Sarah’s hand. She is using her powers to assist with fixing the mistake she made.
Smack!
Sarah spikes the ball with her fingers barely touching the ball. The ball descends quickly to the sand from the lack of defenders blocking her.
“Point, Sarah’s team leads.” Amanda declares.
“Yes!” Sarah does a little dance, her boobs bounce around a lot. “We got this in the bag.” She gives a thumb up.
“Way to go. One more point.” Madi high fives her.
“Good spike. Don’t let your guard down. They will be fighting harder.” You receive the ball to serve. You tilt your head towards Sarah to tell her that you notice her use of her demon powers.
Sarah turns her back to the opposing team so they could see her putting her hands together to apologize. You smile a very forgiving smile. You couldn’t stay upset at her. One, you used your powers to save the team earlier. Second, the bigger one, Sarah was just too cute.
“Nice spike. Just don’t expect us to take this standing still. We still got some skill points to allot to skill slots.” Megan has a fire in her eyes as the game was on the line. “We still have some tricks up our sleeve.”
You serve the ball. Davis receives it. His hit set it perfectly for Megan. She jumps to spike it after only one hit. Sarah is ready and follows to block Megan’s spike.
You feel the presence of divine energy surge up. The sixth sense flares as you notice that Megan jumped early. Was Megan pulling the same trick? No, it was different. Sarah descends first. Megan seems to be floating. She is like a basketball player staying in the air for a long time, The Air Walking ability. Megan is using her power to stay in the air to keep herself in the perfect position to spike.
Smack!
Megan spikes right above Sarah’s fingers. It goes past Sarah perfectly as Sarah couldn’t remain in the air as long as Megan.
“Point, Megan’s team. Scored tied.” Caspian yells.
“Nice set up. You are definitely my Steve.” Megan gives a thumbs up to Davis.
“And you are my Alex with that spike.” Davis responds by completing a Minecraft reference.
“Melody, it’s your serve.” Nick rolls the ball under the net to her.
While the exchange happens, you quickly make a mental image of Sarah to call her to daydream walk. Sarah bobs her head back as she gets the call. She turns to you, a little confused, as a ghosty duplicate form appears.
“Why the daydream call?” Sarah’s illusion asks.
You whisper off to the side of your mouth to not be seen or heard. “Megan used some divine power to stay in the air longer than she should. She noticed you using your demonic power with your last spike.”
“So she responded in kind.” The illusion stares over to the other side, looking very eager. “I guess we got to make the game more interesting.”
“What do you mean?” You were put on edge a little with her words
“I know I shouldn’t have used my powers back there but the cat is out of the bag. She countered with her own. We got to play with our powers for the rest of the game. Besides, Uncle Joe wanted to see what she knows. We could get her to spill if we catch her.” Sarah’s illusion looks very assured about her reasoning.
“What if she catches us?” You had to play the devil's advocate to a demoness.
“We both have to be subtle. Whoever isn’t subtle loses, that is the second game at stake.” Sarah acknowledges your concern. The real Sarah waves for you to pay attention. Melody was about to hit the ball, seemingly waiting on you. All the girls were looking in your direction. “But we got to focus on this.” The illusion disappears.
When it was gone, Melody serves it underhand. It was a gentle and easy serve that would put it in a favorable and easy spot to receive. It came directly to you. You bounce it up to Nick, who would set it for the girls. Sarah and Madi moved into position for a pincer attack. Right as Nick sets it, Megan dashes over from guarding Sarah to Madi. It was perfect for them, for Nick set it to Madi. Chad and Megan respond to Madi’s high jump with a wall. Megan stretched her hands over the net as she jumped higher than Chad.
“Damn it.” Madi flares a fiery red at the blockade. Frustrated at its appearance, she gives a really hard spike to break through. You were worried that she was going to break someone’s arm.
You felt the divine energy surge again in Megan. You wonder what she was going to do. How could you catch her in the act?
Wham! Bonk! Thud!
Madi’s hit was very strong. Megan receives the brunt of the attack. It hit off her arm and went directly down like a brick on your side. The divine energy was used to strengthen and protect her arms from Madi’s overzealous spike.
“Point, Megan leads.” Caspian calls the point for Megan’s team.
“Ouch! That spike was hard. You got some power.” Megan wiggles her arms to shake out the pain from the block.
Madi turns back to red. “Sorry, I didn’t know how to get around that. I had to try to break through.”
“You can tip it over next time, Twigs. That can get around a lot of walls.” Chad taps his arms to make the point of his suggestion for strategy. He doesn’t know that it could have been him getting hit by a succubus dragon strength spike. Madi realizes that she could have swung that spike against him.
“That is good advice. I will try it next time.” Madi tries to laugh off that she could have broken his arm.
“We can’t do anything with that.” Sarah’s illusion reappears as you call her again. “That would expose us first.” You couldn’t use any of the interaction to find out about who Megan is. Madi used her demon strength there and Megan responded with her power to defend herself.
“We have to think of something. It might not be in this game.” You strategize how to unmask Megan’s secret.
Madi’s demonic form suddenly appears in the same hazy state as Sarah’s daydream walking form. You are surprised by the sudden intrusion.
“Sorry about that. I let the anger get the better of me. I’m a little hungry so I better watch my emotions.” Madi apologizes. “I will try to help and expose whatever Megan is hiding.”
“Twigs, how are you here? How do you know I was calling Sarah?” Your whisper voice volume goes up. Nick tilts his gaze to you. You had to be quieter.
“All the succubus here can see you call Sarah.” her illusion points to Melody and Amanda. They wave to show that they see Madi and Sarah. Madi’s shadow form moves over to Nick and sticks her hand inside his head. He is completely oblivious to it as it isn’t affecting reality. “I can daydream walk because I am a queen succubus.”
“So you heard our previous conversation?” You discern that this is how Andrea was able to see Sarah in the school. Daydream walking can be seen by succubus.
“We can only hear Sarah talking, not you. We got the gist that we are trying to figure out what Megan knows. We will try to help while trying not to get caught.” Madi nods and Melody and Amanda follow suit. They were going to try and assist you and Sarah.
“Great, but we need to return to the game.” Sarah points to Melody with the volleyball. “Else, we could be exposed by stalling the game.”
“Excellent point. We will try to catch her with this point.” You call off the daydream. Sarah’s and Madi’s daydream walking forms fade away. You were key in all this. You could sense Megan’s divine energy.
Once again, Melody waited for the conversation to end before serving. It flew over to Nick. He received it and you take the second hit to set it to Madi. The set wasn’t strong as Madi had to hit it to the back of Megan’s side. Davis gets it and gives it to Chad. Chad moves to spike it. You go up to assist Madi. You and Madi jump to block.
Chad decides not to spike. With a little twist of the hand, he knocks it sideways, along the net, towards Megan. Megan was already jumping to spike it to the hole you left.
“Shoot.” Sarah is late to respond. She gets partially up to block. Demonic energy is detected as she feels that is the only way she could block. With Mage Hands, she pushes closer to her side of the net, preventing Megan from spiking it. Sarah changes her block to a tap to make the ball go over to the otherside, returning it to the other side’s control.
“Sorry.” She whispers because of the mistake.
“We still have another chance.” You return to your spot. The game wasn’t over.
Melody receives the return by hitting it towards Davis. Davis is quick to set it to Megan after Melody. Sarah is ready this time. Sarah leaps to meet her in the air.
“I got you this time!” Sarah roars in defiance.
“Are you sure?” Megan was unfazed.
She taps it over Sarah’s hands instead of spiking. She drops it right behind her.
You feel the surge of divine energy in your body once again. You had to save the team from defeat. You take two steps forward and dive to catch the slowly descending ball. You eat sand again as your fist collides with the ball right before the ground.
Thunk! Bap!
“Oh!” Sarah gives gentle yelp as the ball hits her big butt. The ass wobbles from the impact, causing Sarah to grab it. The ball, unfortunately, did not get over the net.
“Point, Megan wins.” Caspian declares. He is a little red from the ball smacking Sarah’s ass cheek.
“We won!” Megan’s team crashes towards the middle for high fives. They were having a celebration over there.
“Sorry about that.” Sarah reaches down to pick you up. Her other hand rubs the butt cheek that got hit. She is disappointed with herself at how your team lost. “My big butt got in the way.”
“It’s alright. We can’t win everything.” You accept her hand. Pulling you up to your feet, she starts to brush the sand off of you. “I just wish I could have seen it instead of having my head in the sand.”
“You can always smack my ass whenever you want.” On cue, Sarah is quick to get things dirty. She leans in closer to whisper her succubi words. “As much as you want.”
“When are you available?” You accept her offer. She becomes very giddy with your answer.
Amanda walks over to your side. “Too bad we couldn’t catch her. We are left at square one.”
“Wait, we were trying to catch her?” Caspian, who followed Amanda, looks inquisitively at your team. Nick seems perplexed by it too.
“I will tell you later.” Amanda pats his shoulder. The boys couldn’t see or hear the conversation in the daydream realm.
“Should we think of a punishment for the losing team?” Melody’s voice rang out above all the other noise. She was the most excited about the win. Very eager to create a rule that wasn’t mentioned before the game.
“A punishment sounds fun.” Chad nods in agreement. The idea was catching on.
“We didn’t agree to this.” Nick was the first to worry and voice his concern about this new rule.
“We’re altering the deal. Pray we don’t alter it any further!” Megan chuckles evilly. She quotes from “Star Wars.” It sends chills down your spine.
“Before we decide on punishments, let's rehydrate.” Amy interrupts. She and Mia had erected a table full of sports drinks and lemonade.
“We did work up a sweat.” Madi rubs her brow.
“Dibs on the lemonade.” Melody claims the sweetest of the drinks. She rushes to the table
“Let’s drink before we talk about what to do next.” Megan follows after Melody.
“Which will probably be figuring out the punishment for the losing team.” Davis joins in on the abrupt rule change.
The group huddles around the table and rehydrates. The drinks were cool, nice, and refreshing. Perfect for rehydrating after the volleyball game. Everyone was chatting as they drank. You hoped that they would forget about doing a punishment for the losing team.
