When the referee blew his whistle to end the match, the Knights players and I ran towards the sideline. Most of them were kneeling on the ground. Hands covering their faces or punching the air while shouting.

The rest of us jumped on top of Coach Richard and some of the other players that were on the bench. The joy and excitement of us entering the finals went through the roof.

And the crowd's energy matched with ours. Those who are cheering the amazing team entertain them and keep them to the edge of their seats. Enjoying the sweet victory that we have achieved today.

Then there were the 'ride or die' fans, the ones who have been with the team during its slow and dry season until a spring came today. They understand how much this win means to us and the road we had taken to come this far.

After celebrating, we calm down enough to shake hands with Triton's players and the referee. When I stood in front of Tenzin, I had my face blank and emotionless.

Copying my expression, we held each other's stare for three minutes. Lifeless until he raised his hand between us, "Good game, Bumblebee,"

Slowly, my lips curved up before taking his hand, "Always a pleasure playing against you, Tarzan."

Shaking hands before, he pulled me in for a hug, then picked me up and spinned on the spot, "My baby is growing up!!! I'm so proud!!!"

He used to do this whenever we played against each other or whenever I played a match. Treating me as if I'm part of this team that he coached for years. I have played so well that it brings him a large amount of joy and pride.

Laughing while enjoying this moment, realizing how much I've missed this crazy, wonderful person, "Put me down, you weirdo."

Holding me for another minute before putting me back down. Smiling at me with a bright smile until someone flashes in front of us. Pushing him roughly back, almost causing him to stumble.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" I screamed at David while making him face me. That's when some Titans players went to check Tenzin, who was still on his feet. Assuring them that he was fine, but some of the players were furious.

One of them, who seemed to be younger than most of us. Matched towards a heated David, shouting at him, "Yo bro, what the hell is your problem, hey?! You're going into the finals. Why are you looking for a fight?!"

He pushed David's chest hard, not enough to lose balance. Which led to him pushing the kid back, not saying anything. Both Tenzin and I moved quickly as David and this guy who's close to my height came towards each other.

Just as they were about to exchange words, we pulled them apart from each other. The last thing any of us need is for Thunderdogs to get another trophy by default.

Thankfully, the referee gave them both a yellow card. Which both coaches were not at all happy about. As Coach Richard called his nephew to the sideline, I was walking beside of,

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" I demanded, being far too angry to use nice words. Especially after how much of an ass he has been acting throughout this day. "What was that? You're trying to pick fights with team captains after beating!!"

"LEAVE ME ALONE, ANELA!!" David barked at me before running to his uncle. Then they walked through the alley, probably to talk in private.

My feet wanted to run after them to get an answer out of the jerk who's behaving like a pain. Instead, I took a deep breath in, knowing that he's in for a whole earful of yelling from his uncle. And afterward, he's gonna get another one from me.
