It was raining. The camera was adjusting, zooming in and out, Arbeloa was dressed nicely, standing on the side of the field, microphone on one hand while the other holding a transparent umbrella. "Alright, we're on!"

Alvaro smiled wildly at the camera, "Hello D.I.V.E. University, after the inappropriate comment about assault by our interim reporter, I am Alvaro Arbeloa taking over the D.I.V.E Channel once again. And in this New Year's Eve, we will see what some of us have been doing following The D.I.V.E Game. We'll start with an interview with the amazing Zlatan Ibrahimovic,"

The camera zoomed out to reveal Zlatan besides Alvaro, "Zlatan, you didn't win this year's game, but some say you still win it in some way, what happened?"

"First, they, you included, won the game because they're the one who brought home a stolen painting, a damaged stolen cup, and a briefcase of junks of paper, and they look more heroic with tears and blood. Meanwhile, I did everything faster and without getting my hands dirty and I got the treasure. It's not as invaluable as it was supposed to be, but still a lot of money."

"What's the treasure?"

"It's just a few grams of germs, and yeah, it's very expensive. So yes, you can say I'm still winning."

"Sure you are, they even said you're the one beating all the enemies outside our university?"

"Yes, you know, because no one can threaten our university, and absolutely, no one can beat me. I even beat the Spy.C.E. girl. She tried to take my treasure from me."

"Spy.C.E. girl?"

"The spy, from Spy Cotes Evil."

"Is it true that you killed her because she almost killed Gerard?"

"Who said I killed her?" But Zlatan didn't clarify that, "I didn't know if she almost killed Gerard, and even if I knew—well I got nothing on Gerard, didn't I make myself clear at the last interview?" Zlatan gave him an intimidating look.

"It wasn't me." Alvaro wasn't the one who interviewed Zlatan back then, but he heard that after rumours of Zlatan and Gerard dating spread out, and everyone started questioning Zlatan's sexuality, the guy held an orgy involving the girl who interviewed him, her sister, and many other girls, right in front of Gerard when he invited him for a date, when really, he only invited him to watch an orgy before dumping him. If it was any other person but Gerard Alvaro would've pitied them. Zlatan had an extreme way of dealing with the rumour of him being gay, unlike Guti who responded to such rumour by kissing Raúl in front of everyone, posting the picture to show off his gorgeous boyfriend.

Alvaro tried to change the topic, "Zlatan, you've done great job in the game. Do you want to say anything about how you did all of that by your own?"

"I'm not gonna tell you my secret, but sure, if you want to know," Zlatan gave an intimidating look to the camera, "I'm Zlatan."

"That's it?" Alvaro was expecting something more of details.

"That's it." He saw the disappointment in Alvaro's face, "Look, Zlatan doesn't share, goodbye," and with that, he left the interview.

Alvaro shrugged and looked back at the camera, "Alright, next, some of you might have been wondering what happened to Guardiola and Mourinho or even Zizou and Lucho. Well, we were wondering too, and guess what?" The camera started zooming out but there's no one else but Alvaro this time, "We have no idea either. No, we can't get an interview with any of them. It's top secret, and we're all left with our imagination."

"So back to The Game, we all know the tragic news of a heroic story from Raúl," the camera was shaking, turning here and there, "Not you, Chori," he said to the cameraman, "Hey, come back to me." The camera was back to Alvaro, "Story of the legendary Raúl who fought a helicopter like a badass and broke his leg, what happened to him? Is it right that he's not going to participate in the next year's game? And how about Iker Casillas' boyfriend who turns out to be a spy? And have you heard about the messiest breakup of the year? Or have you heard about the amazing Christmas gift inspired by one incident in the game? And what's all about the so called él presidente? And to answer all of your questions, we're gonna get to our next session: The Bedswervers Tour!" Alvaro gestured enthusiastically when he named the session before turned a disappointed face someone behind the camera, "Xabi, that sounds terrible," he added, "and disgusting," he added again, "and creepy."
