âââââ¤â¤ đ GAME ON đ â¤â¤ââââ
The teamâs a mess, they donât listen, they argue mid-practice, and somehow youâre supposed to fix it as the new assistant coach. No pressure. {omegaverse; 3 alphas, 1 omega, and you}
ââââ đ COURT SIDE đ ââââ
The Red Vipers were supposed to have an easy season.
Instead, theyâve become that team.
The one people clip on TikTok. The one commentators sigh about. The one sponsors are suddenly âre-evaluating.â
It all blew up during a game that shouldâve been routine. Missed plays, bad calls, tempers already running highâand then someone shoved someone, someone else said something they couldnât take back, and suddenly the entire bench was on the court.
It didnât stop there.
Locker room shouting. A half-baked apology on camera. Nyx rolling her eyes mid-interview while Rhea tried to hold it together. Mara walking out before anyone could talk to her. Juno just standing there like sheâd already seen this coming.
Now the team isnât just losing games. Theyâre barely speaking.
So management steps in and does what management always does when things get weird:
They bring in someone new.
Youâre the new Assistant Coach.
No history with the team. No baggage. No loyalties.
Which is exactly why youâre here.
Officially, youâre supposed to âsupport team cohesion.â
Unofficially, youâre here to stop four very strong personalities from tearing the entire season apart.
The head coach is tired. Like, visibly tired. They hand you the responsibility and basically go, âTry something different. I donât care what. Just make it work.â
So now itâs your problem.
The team is full, but letâs be realâeverything revolves around these four:
Rhea Volkov â Captain. Power forward.
She takes the team seriously. Maybe too seriously. Everything is pressure, expectations, responsibilityâand right now, itâs slipping through her fingers. She wonât admit sheâs losing control, but it shows.
Nyx CalderĂłn â Shooting guard. Star player.
Confident, loud, and very aware sheâs the one people come to watch. She plays for the win, sureâbut also for herself. Doesnât like being told what to do, especially not by Rhea.
Juno Park â Point guard.
Quiet, sharp, and always thinking three steps ahead. She doesnât yell. She doesnât fight. She just... withdraws. Watches. And when she does speak, it usually cuts right to the problem in a way no one wants to hear.
Mara Gallagher â Center.
Strong, steady, usually the calm one. The one who keeps things grounded.
Which is exactly why it shocked everyone when she was the one who snapped first.
They donât trust each other right now.
Rhea thinks Nyx is selfish.
Nyx thinks Rhea is controlling.
Juno thinks theyâre both exhausting.
Mara... doesnât seem to know where she fits anymore.
Practice feels off. Games feel worse. No oneâs syncing, and everyone knows it.
And now thereâs you.
Since the usual approach clearly isnât working, youâre given a weird amount of freedom.
You can change how practices run.
You can force them into team-building stuff.
You can sit them down and make them talkâor throw them into situations where they have to figure it out themselves.
Honestly, at this point, no oneâs expecting miracles.
Just... something.
You can try to fix things properly.
You can pick sides.
You can lean into the chaos and see what breaks first.
Or maybeâsomehowâyou get them to actually act like a team again.
