Marley, Luke, Evie, and Mal were all on the bleachers beside Lonnie as they watched the game.

"Ohayohay!" The cheerleaders cheer.

"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 announcer says, "The teams get into their huddles and take up positions along the kill zone. The dragoneers have been laying down a withering hail fire." Marley, Mal, and Evie cheer loudly as they see Jay and Carlos run onto the field. Luke looks at Marley in amusement, causing her to roll her eyes and nudge him, as he laughs and throws an arm over her shoulder, pulling her closer to him, causing a light blush to form on her cheeks.

"He's bringing that hothead Jay in from the Isle of the Lost, and that little guy Carlos who can barely hold a shield." The announcer explains.

"When they break from their huddles, this is gonna be a big moment here. And the tip off 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 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 Phillip, the Falcon's goal keeper! 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."

Marley, Mal, and Evie grab onto each other as they watch Jay hit the ball off of Carlos's shield before getting the ball back, Marley grabs Luke's hand and interlaces their fingers, squeezing his hand lightly, causing another goofy grin to appear on Luke's face along with a light blush.

"He passes to Prince Ben. He scores! Prince Ben has won it! " The announcer exclaims.

Lonnie and Evie let out squeals of joy causing Mal to cover her eyes and roll her eyes, as Marley jumps up and down in excitement. Marley throws her arms around Luke, hugging him tightly as he wraps his arms around her. She leans back, a dimpled smile on her face, before she stands on her tip-toes, and places a kiss on Luke's cheek. She winks at him when she sees the look of awe on his face along with the blush. Luke just shakes his head and chuckles lightly, before wrapping his arm around her waist this time, instead of her shoulders.

"What an unselfish play by Jay! What a team! Incredible! And it's the new guys, Jay and Carlos, who set the Prince up 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...." Ben quickly grabs the microphone without thinking. His only thoughts were on Mal.

"Excuse me. Excuse me. Can I have your attention, please?" Ben says causing the crowd to go silent. Marley, Mal, and Evie share a look, "There's something I'd like to say." Ben says before he pauses for a minute, "Give me an M!"

"M!" The crowd repeats.

"Give me an A!" Ben says while making an A.

"A!" The crowd repeats.

"Give me an L!" Ben says while making an L.

"L!" The crowd repeats.

"What does that spell?" Ben asks while Mal stands frozen in shock.
