"Team! Gather round, I have your dorm rooms"
Bombay called towards the team when they were at the airport.
"Okay... First room is Jesse, Guy and Lester. Second room is Charlie and Adam. Third room is Luis, Goldberg, Dwayne and Ken. Fourth is Dean and Fulton and fifth is Julie, Connie and Ryleigh. You guys got it?"
Everybody nodded and resumed their chatter. Lee turned away from her coach to see Dwayne and Luis high-fiving about the fact that they were going to be rooming together for the Goodwill Games.
"So you guys wanna sit together on the plane?" Lee asked the group as they started walking towards the gate for their flight. A chorus of agreement followed after and the group of four decided how to pair up.
Okay so... I'm sitting with you Rye and Dwayne is sitting with Luis?" Ryleigh nodded and pointed out, "I just said that didn't I?"

The team had boarded the plane that Mr Tibbles's company had provided. It was a small, private jet plane, which meant the team could choose their own seats. Les guided the group of four towards the backseats, his reasoning being that they would be nearer to the toilets (you can all tell that Luis rolled his eyes at this).
Two people sat down in the seat in front of Lee, she looked over and saw that it was Guy and Jesse. The darker boy saw her looking through the gap of the scratchy plane seats through his peripheral - he turned his head to smile and nod at the girl. She immediately waved and smiled back and started pulling out a small card game from her carry-on bag.
"Top Trumps?" Les questioned with confusion.
"Disney Top Trumps" Lee replied back, putting emphasis on the word 'Disney', "Wanna play Carrot Top?".
Les nodded, not aware of the consecutive losses he was about to go through in the next two hours.

Finally Team USA made it to the Junior Goodwill Games. Everyone around Ryleigh was taking photos and pointing to specific monuments of LA and towards the huge building that was hosting the games.
"This place is so freakin' cool!" Lee exclaimed, looking at every one of her surroundings, though the sights on her left were shielded by her brother's tall stature. "Isn't this place amazing?" she cried out to nobody in particular, but got a reply, "It's pretty nice, real big."
