Capítulo 101: A More Worthy Foe

A/N: Writing that last chap was pretty fun, and I think I can improve on the idea. Here comes battle #2 vs Leo, this time with integrated music and bands! Please lmk if you like these.

After the performance, Elric's strawberry picking group gathered up and headed out to a restaurant to eat together. It was an obvious win for Ember again, and even Ryan was confident that she would likely eliminate any chances his own band had at going to the main competition.

It didn't make him angry, though, and he was just happy that one of his new friends was doing so well. 

Furthermore, after watching the performance with Lace, he felt a bit closer to her, and the two started chatting more as he drove the crew to the restaurant. 

Elric, being a certified bro, quickly picked up on the vaguely romantic tone in their voices and decided to dedicate the next few hours to returning the favor The Boys had done for him.
