Chapter 9

As the Muses finish their walks, the announcer then calls the first five of each team, including their team captains. Zee and Tle position themselves in the center, ready for the jump ball. Before the referee blows the whistle, Zee then tells Tle that if Zee's team wins, Tle must avoid Nunew at all costs. Tle responds that if his team wins, he can pursue Nunew whether Zee likes it or not.

Zee: (whispering to Tle) Hey, if my team wins, you stay away from Nunew, deal?

Tle: (smirking) Fair enough. But if my team wins, I'll pursue Nunew, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Zee: (smirking back) Deal.
