CHAPTER 6

"Ohayohay!" Addy cheers with the cheerleaders while she keeps glancing at Jay who is sitting on the bench.

"This is a nail-biter, folks. There's 47 seconds left on the clock. We're all tied up. The Sherwood falcons, two. The fighting knights, two. What a game between Auradon's fiercest rivals," The first announcer says.

"Get 'em, Chad," Jay says as Chad gets ready to go back in.

"Thanks, Jay," Chad says before running back onto the field.

"The teams get into their huddles and take up positions along the kill zone. The dragoneers have been laying down a withering hail of fire," The second announcer explains.

"Akiho," The coach calls and a kid runs off the field. Coach then turns to Jay. "You're up."

"And now a substitution..." The first announcer says.

"Coach, how about my buddy here?" Jay says as he pulls Carlos up.

"Not so sure about that," Coach says.

"Coach, he's been practicing. And you said yourself a team is made up of a bunch of parts," Jay starts explaining.

"Jay, I'm not that good," Carlos argues.

"Well, he's kind of like my brain," Jay finishes winning the coach over.

"Chase. Come here!" Coach calls. "You heard him. Get out there!"

"Don't worry, bro. I got your back," Jay tells Carlos.

"How about my front?" Carlos asks worriedly.

"Pfft. Get out there," Jay says before pushing Carlos forward. Addy cheers extra loud as Jay and Carlos run onto the field.

"He's bringing that hothead Jay in from the isle of the lost and that little guy Carlos can barely hold a shield," The second announcer explains. "When they break from their huddles, this is gonna be a big moment here. And the tipoff is ready. Here we go. Long pass goes to Jay. Jay dishes off to prince Ben. Nice little block by Carlos. He does a little dancing jig in his opponent's face. And now Jay gets the ball back. Here comes Jay! Jay, hurdling maneuver at mid-field. Jay makes a nice pass to prince Ben through the kill zone. Big block by Chad! Prince Ben moves over wide, gives it back to Jay. He's in the clear! Shot! Oh, what a save by Philip the falcons' goalkeeper! 23 seconds left. You could cut the tension with a sword. The long ball is played into Jay. Jay, great jump, great leap. And a great move by Jay. Big block from Chad. Jay dishes off to prince Ben. And then Carlos with a big block, goes down. Jay through the kill zone, picks up Carlos. Oh, he's being hammered by dragon fire. Still, going on. Jay, hurdling maneuver at mid-field. He's in the clear. The ball goes back to Jay." Addy and Audrey grab onto each other as they watch Jay hit the ball off of Carlos' shield before getting the ball back. "He passes to prince Ben. He scores! Prince Ben has won it!" Addy and Audrey let out squeals of joy. "What an unselfish play by Jay! What a team! Incredible! And It's the new guys, Jay and Carlos, who set up the prince for the win here. What a victory! An absolutely wonderful end to one of the best games ever. Here they come, folks. The winners of the first tourn..." Addy quickly grabs one microphone without thinking, while Ben grabs the other one. Addy's only thoughts were on Jay.
