A Neverseen Splotching Match

Gethen's POV

This was it. Today was the day that I'd show everyone who was boss. Because today was the first annual Neverseen Spotching match! Hosted by... Fintan. Even though it was my idea.

"Members, members," Fintan opened his arms, silencing the six chatting cloaked figures. "Today I am here to announce the first annual Neverseen Splotching match! Our mascot: Noxflares." He looked like he was holding for applause, but it never came.

"Find a teammate!!" He ordered.

Naturally, I teamed up with Gisela. The other teams were Umber and Trix, Glimmer and Alvar, and Fintan and Ruy. Fintan handed each of us a Splotcher.

I flashed an evil grin. "Get ready to lose."

Gisela rolled her eyes. "Like I even care about this silly game."

"You will be distracted by my god-like body."

"Stop flirting!" Fintan hollered.

"Please Fintan. I'm married."

"I don't give a Noxflare. It's the same to me either way." Fintan sounded bored. "Let's get this game started." I put my Splotcher in a ready-to-shoot position. It was time to win. And win I would.

"Ready... set... SPLOTCH!"

In one move, I beat Gisela.

"You'll pay for this, Ondsinn!" she said, red goo dripping down her face.

"You see, I don't think I will. Because I win every game." I grinned. Gisela went to the side, and she was joined by Glimmer, Fintan, and Trix.

Fintan was glowering hard. But it didn't stop him from announcing the next round.

"Since Gethen was the first to win, he will splotch against the winner of this round." He told us. "Umber and Ruy, SPLOTCH!"

After Ruy won, it was time for us to go face-to-face.

"Get ready to detonate!" I did a pre-victory victory dance that involved a lot of butt-wiggling. I adopted it from Dimitar during the Neverseen's time with the ogres.

"Maybe I'll just use my ability to bounce the Splotcher back at you!" Ruy snarled.

"NO. ABILITIES. ALLOWED!" Fintan screamed. His face was still dripping with orange goo.

"Let's be realistic," Gisela told everyone. "Gethen's going to win. He's a Telepath! There's really no point to this silly game. The strongest reserves will always win."

"Yeah, yeah. But I still want my victory!" I cheered.

Fintan rolled his eyes. "Gethen, Ruy, SPLOTCH!"

It took longer than with Gisela, but Ruy was finally covered from head to toe in purple paint.

"Yeah!" I pumped my fist.

"That concludes our first-annual NEVERSEEN SPLOTCHING MATCH! Join us later tonight for our after-party, which involves burning Noxfares!" No one looked very excited for the celebration.

For what seemed like the hundredth time that day, Gislea rolled her eyes. "I don't care about anything that happens as long as I can shower."

Everyone nodded in agreement and filed out of the double doors.
