"What do you mean, I won't like what I see? What happened to…."
"Jacklyn, is everything okay?"
*Click*
"That was my manager."
"Manager?"
"I think you mean, 'Maid'"
"Treasurer?"
"Right hand?"
"No. I mean, Manager.
Our time here has been fun and I am glad I got to meet all of you, but I must go back."
"Go back?"
"You really thought I could stay here forever?"
"Where are you going?"
"Jacklyn...….is not going anywhere, but Hi-C on the other hand has a lot of teams to crush."
"Bring them here. We have a gym."
"Ruby."
"What?"
"I am not going to another School and teaching...…..I am playing."
"Playing at a college level? But you're only….."
"Ruby, think bigger."
"..........Rosas Palace? Her Stadium is pretty big."
"Ruby, I think she means on a grand stage. An Olympic style game. The best players from all around, representing their different hometowns. Comprised of one team, to showcase who we are."
"But isn't she too young, to.....you know…"
"You really don't know how the Entertainment industry operates, do you?"
"What's the grand prize? A trophy?"
"Again, Ruby. You would be wrong.
I play on a team of ten. The winner receives $400,000 split. $40,000 each.
Second place receives $2000,000 split. $20,000 each
Then we have our various sponsors, charities, and organizaitons which brings us in a total more equaling close to...…..$80,000 for the winners, and $40,000 for second place."
"You receive more from Sponsors than the game itself?"
"Welcome to my world."
"You could buy us out? My restaurant...."
"And more then what I make as Queen."
"....Oh, did I say the winner overall receives that?"
"Oh no."
".....I meant per game."
"Losers get paid to?"
"Even the worst loser is ten times better than the best hustler."
"How many games? Thats...."
"Will you stop gawking, and make up your mind?"
"Mind?"
"Stay or go?"
"Aren't your parents coming with you?"
"They have their own Recitals and rehearsals.
Plus...I trust you will take it more seriously. In fact.....I could replace my body guards."
"Body Guards?"
"Plural?"
"........You're really leaving, teacher Jacklyn?"
"It's Hi-C......…and I am afraid so, little Iris. But I will be back."
"When?"
".....Would any of you like to come to my games?"
"Huuuahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
*Trop*
"Ummm...Iris?......Iris? Wake up, Iris."
"But you didn't even touch her."
"Fell over from excitement."
"That's a thing?"
"I'll just.....put these tickets in your hands, and be on my way."
