"Hey Lorenzo, do you want something to drink, I got water or soda, we ran out of juice", yelled someone from another room. Lorenzo was too preoccupied in the match he was in to give an answer.
Few seconds later a boy the same age of Lorenzo walked in with a two tall glass cup of a brownish liquid. Only at the opening of the door Lorenzo looked away to see Michael," Hey sorry did you asked me something early I was in pinch", he said as he turned back to the game.
Michael didn't answer immediately instead watched Lorenzo play he was doing good, actually he was doing great," Dude we were losing when I left what happen", he muttered.
Lorenzo smirked and made a small victorious laugh, "You haven't lost till the games over", Michael put the drinks on a small table behind Lorenzo and sat next him then said," Ok funny guy, but really, what happen we had like 150 credits left, with the enemy having 12 of the 13 capture zones".
"Yeah, I only grabbed the controller to warm up for the next match, but I got a good kill streak going then our team started to push slowly, but the tanks and aircraft was keeping us pinned down", Michael watched Lorenzo finally die," SHIT F-ing landmines I had 28 kills".
Michael asked for more explanation.
"Oh yeah I guess cause the enemy was winning one of the noobs or trolls activated the emp blast, probably thinking they were looking at an easy clean up, but with their vehicles and aircrafts disabled we countered attack hard and luckily we had the only base that allowed you spawn outside of your faction base", Lorenzo explained as he pushed to the last of the enemy's captured zones.
Michael just remembered and blurted out," Oh yeah I just remembered if the emp blast goes off you can only spawn at the faction base which is far even from the first capture zones, and that if your team owns the communication tower capture zone you can spawn there and the vehicles work there, and the good thing on this map the comm tower is in the middle of the map and gives a helicopter and tanks".
Lorenzo plastered a big smile on his face," I wish you were here to hear the roar", Michael shot him a confused look," Yeah when the emp when off, the roar through the proximity voice chat and the team leaders roared to push forward", he said.
Michael was hesitant at first then Lorenzo explained that one of the teammates were streaming and told Michael to look him up. After a moment Michael found that channel and rewinded the stream to where Lorenzo was saying his story.
The phone was blasting the roar of an army pushing forward, Michael was frozen with excitement and awe. "The roar of 500 players pushing forward was not something you experience in a match of EX;WARFARE everyday", thought Lorenzo.
About ten minutes later the enemy team was reduced from 500 players to 57 players held up at their faction base.
"GG bois, can't believe we clutch that, who were the top players, who was the dumbass that popped the emp, LOL", were just a few of what was being said and texted in the game. A group of attack helicopters few low and near Lorenzo, so he gave them the thumbs up emote. The helicopters swung side to side, probably acknowledging him.
The match ended soon after; Lorenzo then received a message.
"Hey man GG, we got that win by luck with the emp blast being set off, but your ass going ham and not giving up before it went off made me and squadron come back harder, so again GG, hopefully we can squad up again", said the message from LionKing892.
Michael gave a pat to Lorenzo's back," Look at you getting all the praise". A second later multiple friend requests popped up on the screen.
"Well are you gonna accept them", asked Lorenzo to Michael," It is your account anyways".
