As Waverly watched her brothers play the game, she thought of how fun it would be to play as well. She started to play and got better and better. She got to the point where she was a professional chess player. One day, Waverly and her mother were walking through some stores, when her mother started to talk about all of Waverly's accomplishments. This made Waverly so embarrassed that she ran away.
