QUOTE : Both boys played soccer<br /><br />in the Etzgadol City League. They were on different teams, of course.<br /><br />Zev’s team was all shifters. He was sure the pack would have forced<br /><br />them to play in an all-shifter league, if there were such a thing. But the<br /><br />shifter population didn’t have enough boys in his age group to make up<br /><br />a whole league, so the pack formed its own team in the Etzgadol City<br /><br />League.<br /><br />When Zev had learned of the integrated league two years earlier,<br /><br />he’d immediately developed what his parents called an “almost<br /><br />maniacal obsession” with both soccer and baseball—not coincidentally,<br /><br />the two sports in the Etzgadol City League. He’d never bothered with<br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br />other sports because he’d seen no point. The only reason to participate,<br /><br />as far as Zev was concerned, was the chance to play with his human<br /><br />friend.
