The news that got to hear wasn't what she had been expecting. Not by far.
"…yes Miss Wallice, it was three of them. All masked up! They remained incognito all through the first round."
Wallice listened with rapt attention even though couldn't wait to hear about the Yamata girl. Her team members knew better than to bore her with inconsequential information like silly gossip. But if they were talking about this mysterious team, then they must had been pretty something.
"Ibneiah, tell me what was so special about this particular team that I haven't heard about."
Wallice knew her team in and out. They were a perfect balance. There was the optimist, the realist, and the depressing pessimist. She could always count on Ibneiah to tell it as it was, without any prejudice or bias.
