After the match, a few of Jasper's teammates had cornered him in the parking lot. The King of Spades at Six Star was a pyrokinetic, meaning he could manipulate flames.
"Hand it over." The King of Spades growled.
"What?"
"You know the rules man. If you get beat by a number, you lose your rank. Now hand over your Knight patch."
Before Jasper could even reach for his patch, one of the King's goons, who was also a knight, ripped it off the letterman jacket the cryokinetic wore.
Shame poured down on Jasper. He had worked hard to get this rank. He spetn a whole school year honing his powers just to get here. But he lost it all in one night! To a rank five at that. To someone half his power!
A familiar voice came from behind Jasper. All heads turned to the Ace of Spades, Ms Vonagan.
"I'm afraid he'll lose more than his rank." She Reached into Jasper's jacket pocket and stole his power card. He felt the ability to use his power leave his body. He shivered, noticing how cold it was.
"You can't do that! Thats mine! I bought that card myself!"
"Once you joined the Spades, you forfeit ownership of this card. It belongs to the Spades faction. And as your Ace," she ripped the card before Jasper's eyes. "I am the owner of all the cards you own for as long as you are a spade."
So much anger boiled in him that he had to swallow. "Then, I'm leaving," he declared.
"Excuse me!" Vonagan blinked.
"I quit the Spades. I'm done serving in your dictatorship." he stormed off, hiding his tears until he got to his dorm
