The water balloon fight

Got my water balloon in hand
More in a secret location
This is war
Every man for himself

Me against the neighborhood
This will be fun
We will all get soaked
Outside in the hot sun

A water balloon flies by
Barely missing
The thrower in sight
Splash
Contact

I run to the secret pile
Dodging balloons and getting wet
I make it
All the balloons are here
no one has found it yet

Two five gallon buckets
Attached to bungee cord
Pre-loaded
As the enemy approaches
I pull back one of the buckets
An attack of balloons go flying
String down the advancing numbers

Splash
Hit in the back
I spin around and launch the other bucket of balloons
Knocking some out of trees
Others in plain sight

Some kids hide behind parked cars
When I see them rise
I throw one water balloon after another

After awhile
And much much wetter
We decide to call a truce
Friends once more
With memories to last a life time
