“For their final game of the season the Misery squared off against the shambling Necromanteia in a terrible blizzard. Despite the poor weather the Misery fans packed the stadium, and the Necromanteia supporters did their best to remain inconspicuous. The game began with a kick from the Misery landing in the middle of the opposing team. The receivers tried to quickly loop around the flank but were contained easily by the Misery. Under pressure the dead ones tried to quickly change flanks, but left an opening that was exploited. Z'odra boldly charged through the ice and snow to smash the Werewolf with the ball down so hard that it would not return to the pitch that game. With the ball loose Mr_Foulscumm deftly darted through the offensive line and scooped up the ball. Hoping to go un-noticed during all the commotion Gedney booted the head clean off a Flesh Golem. Sadly he was seen by the ref and was instructed to help carry the head off to be re-attached, and then sit out the rest of the game. Mr_Foulscumm scored quickly with plenty of time left in the half. The Misery were full of confidence, but tragedy was soon to strike. They kicked shallow and looped around to contain the Necromanteia advance and force a turn over. The Ghoul with the ball came around the sides with only a Werewolf for cover, and Stonetroll struck! The ball was spilled loose, the Ghoul was stunned, and the Werewolf was marked two to one. Suddenly an arc of lightning fired from the Necromanteia dugout and Stonetroll was lifted in to the air where he was slowly torn to pieces by pulsing energy. With the Misery horrified by what they were seeing the Werewolf scooped the ball up and scored. The fans rioted and demanded justice, but were eventually contained by event security. The Misery were rattled by the sudden and violent death of Stonetroll and finished up the first half conservatively blocking and regaining their composure. When the second half began they were fully composed. They began a methodical advance and contained the opposition neatly while Mr_Foulscumm brought the ball up from the back field. Necromanteia were unable to make any headway against the Misery with their only success being Woodstock getting knocked unconscious by a wolf who was pursuing the ball. The Misery easily recovered, and Mr_Foulscumm put enough distance and blockers between himself and the pursuers that the second half played out uneventfully as the Misery pummelled their opponents and ran the clock down. Mr_Foulscumm scored as the game ended, securing the win 2-1. The still raging fans invaded the pitch hunting for the wizard that had downed their hero, and Necromanteia scattered. After a gruelling season the Misery reflected on their lost comrades and third place finish. Then they vowed to revenge them in the season to come.”
