"It's time to announce the winner!" Kai said.
Koi joined in, "Yeah, I can't wait to see who won!"
"I bet it will be us!" Hope said.
"Oh! Oh! And maybe Koi and Hope can join our team!"
"Maybe. Only if everything works out," Sol said
Hope shifted from side to side, "I'm really sorry, but we just got invited to another team, and it was the team that we always wanted to be apart of-"
"Yeah sorry," Koi said.
"Oh that's okay, you need to follow your heart!"
"Thank you so much, I'm glad you understand," Hope said. "But that doesn't mean that we can't Turf again some time!"
"Okay! I'm looking forward to it!" Kai exclaimed.
Sol smiled, "Yeah me too."
"By the way, it looks like they are about to reveal the winning team!"
"Heck yeah!" Hope and Koi said.
"And the winner is..." The announcer started. "The winner is Team Duo and their two temporary teammates!"
"Yay! I knew we would win!" Star leaped into the air. "Anyways, good game! You managed to splat both Niki and I. We haven't been splatted for a while!"
"Really? Well it was fun playing with you too! I have to say, I learned a lot," Kai smiles with his eyes closed, a cheerful look on his face.
"Thanks, but we were obviously going to win." Niki crossed her arms and turned away from Kai.
"Oh yeah, great job!" Kai's smile grew larger than before.
Sol tapped his shoulder, "Uh, Kai? I have to go for the day."
"But we just started! Why?"
"Something came up, but I should be back soon."
"Okay then. See you later Sol." Kai waved as he walked off.
"Well it looks like I don't have a teammate so... can I join you two for the day?" He asked.
"Of course you can!" Star said
Niki whipped her head around, "NO!"
"Aww, why not?"
"Because he is annoying!" Niki said.
"Please?!" Kai and Star begged, giving their best puppy-dog eyes.
"...Fine. One thing, you better not mess ANYTHING UP!" Niki stated.
"Got it!" Kai gave Niki a thumbs up.
So they were off. Kai temporarily joined Team Duo. They went inside the lobby to book another Turf War, and Niki went to the receptionist.
"So Star! Do you know a way to get a new member for our team? I mean I've tried everything! I asked, I begged, I bribed, and I even said I would be their servant for a day! Can you help me?" Kai asked desperately.
Star thought for a moment, "Have you ever tried a rap?"
"Oh my cod, that's a great idea!" Kai said.
"So what are you thinking?"
"Hmmm... Sol can do the beat and maybe I can come up with the lyrics!"
"Oh, that's a great idea!" Star said, "What are you thinking?"
"Let's see.... I got it!"
"Tell me! Tell me!"
"Okay, here we go! Ahem HELLO MY NAME IS KAI, THIS IS MY BUDDY SOL, AND WHEN WE'RE PLAYING TURF, YOU KNOW WE'RE ON A ROLL, C'MON, C'MON PLEASE, PLEASE, JOIN! OUR! TEAM!"
"Wow! That was great!" Star smiled wide, hyped up by the rap.
"Thanks! I just came up with it!" Kai blushed from the compliment.
"I can't believe that! I mean, you sold me!"
"Yes! Maybe that means Sol, and I will finally get a team!" Kai's energy improved and he smiled.
"Yeah!"
"Hey you two, get over here! I booked the match! It starts in 5 minutes!"
"Ok," Kai and Star said.
And so the three of them ran off to go into a Turf Lobby. They all went together for their first match together as a Temporary Trio!
