Tackling the Giant Ball

You told me to battle other people, so I marched straight out to the park court to face the giants! Two tall kids were hurling a massive orange basketball around. When a wild bounce broke free and came rolling fast right at me, I didn't back down! I planted my feet on the asphalt, roared, and thrust my chest out! THUD! The heavy rubber slammed directly into my belly! My squishy torso squashed flat against the impact, but my inner power snapped right back and kicked the ball to a dead stop! One of the players ran over, shouted in surprise, and grabbed his ball. Victory for my stretchy defense!
