Chapter 24: Level 2 Challenger
"What!!" both Z and Isiah exclaimed.
"Yes they are our first match in the tournament," said Walker
"What a coincidence I want to beat that prick to a pulp, "said Z
"Sorry guys I caused you a lot of trouble, " Isiah said
"don't worry we got your back," said Z
"he already crosses my red line, he deserves what coming for him," said Walker
"Let's go to the assigned court our match will start soon, " said Walker
Z headed to the court without asking what Walker was planing because he knows that this friend of his is a nice guy, but the moment the guy called him a son of a b*** he already crossed the red line.
Isiah saw Z looking at him he understood what he meant and didn't inquire about what Walker was going to do.
Meanwhile...
"Pete why are you late again," said a sturdy guy with his sleeve tattooed.
"I'm sorry Gary, I just had an argument with some ungrateful brats," said Peter
"Don't give that crap you were just bulling them don't you?" Asked Gary
"No no, I just saw a beautiful babe and want to hit on her the moment I turned a brat bump into me, oh forget about it where's Larry," said Pete
"He went to the assigned court first, and I stayed here waiting for you," said Gray.
"By the way Gary who is our opponents for the first round," said Pete
"Mapel Bad Boys, it's a new team," said Gray
"so, they are a new team, then our victory is secured," said Pete with a smug on his face.
Gray slapped Pete on the head and said: "don't underestimate them even if they are a new team."
"Okay, I will do my best don't worry," said Pete while laughing.
"Let's go our match is about to begin," said Gray
"OK," said Pete.
Walker reached the court with Z and Isiah, Walker Confirmed that they were participating.
"Mapel bad boys are here, the other team is running late if the other team doesn't arrive in the span of 5 minutes Mapel bad boys will be advancing to the next round, " said the official.
Walker nodded his head and went back to where Z and Isiah waited.
After 5 min the official arrived at where Walker and his friends waited.
"The other team is late there is only one member of the other team that asked if it's possible to wait for another 5 min," said the official
"Could you give me a minute to discuss it with rest of the team," said Walker
"Ok," said the official.
"What do you think guys, do we wait, or we take the win because they were late," said Walker
"If that prick wasn't with this team I was going to take the easy win, but since the conflict that happened earlier I want to beat him in the court fair and square, I know it's stupid to not take such an easy victory but this how I fell about this situation," said Z
"what about you Isiah, " said Walker.
"If he didn't insult you back there, I was going to tell you to take the win, but now I really want him to suffer a loss at the hand of us high schoolers," said Isiah.
"Are you sure guys, we may lose the first game," said walker even though deep down he wants to wait to humiliate that prick because he called his mother a b***, but the three of them didn't have enough time to prepare for the competition like other teams, that why he was okay to get this free win.
"Yes we are not going to regret am I right Isiah," said Z.
"Yes I'm not going to regret it also," said Isiah.
Walker saw that both of them are confident in their decision and went to the official and said that they agreed to wait.
the official went to inform the only guy from the other team their decision.
After the official delivers the news a tall young man come to where they were waiting.
"Hello guys my name is Larry, and I'm a member of ALl FIRED UP team, and I want to thank you on behalf of my two teammates," said Larry
"Don't get me wrong, I would rather take this easy win than play against you guys, the only reason that I agree to wait because of some unfinished business between us, and a member of your team?" said Walker seriously.
"I don't know how one of my teammates offend you, but I am still going to thank you for your gesture, so let's have a good match and let the best win," said Larry then went to wait for his other teammates.
The expression on Walker's face wasn't good because he saw the stats of the guy who just talk to them.

"Guys this game isn't going to be easy, this guy is surely a hooper," said Z
"how did you know" asked Isiah
"I sensed the pressure he released it's not a like any normal baller he played either in college or some pro teams," said Z
Walker was surprised that Z felt the same way, he always saw the stats of who he played against, but this time he guessed that the level of his opponent is higher than him before checking his stats.
"Even if he played in college before we have the same goal and that is to win the tournament, so let win this game and advance to the next round,"
Walker said with confidence even though it was challenging.
he was thrilled that there is a strong competition because that will help him hone his skills.
After A while Gray and Peter arrived at the court and saw that Larry was waiting and they headed towards him.
"You two lazy bums why did you arrive late," asked Larry
"It was Pete who got into an argument with some brats," said Gray
"so you better be grateful to those brats because they had the chance to win because you were late and the official was going to disqualify us if the other team didn't agree to wait for you," said Larry
Peter was stunned for a moment before he starts laughing.
"HAHAHA So those arrogant sons of b***s is our first match then this is an easy win for us."
"Don't be arrogant Pete they are a going to be a hard team to beat," said Larry
"Don't be a worry rat we are going to win this match easily," said Gray
"Let's go and end this match quickly," said Pete who was imaginary their devastating face after the loss.
Larry shook his head when he heard the arrogance of his teammates,he felt that this match was going to be hard since that conversation with them.
Meanwhile, Walker saw the two enter the court and when he saw their stats a mysterious smile appeared in his face...
