The match ended. All twenty minutes were over. No points were scored till the end. Both puppies were tired, panting and laying down on the court.
Meanwhile Momoi ran out of the court, calling Kise and Aomine to join her. Once they did, she began worriedly talking.
"What do we do now? There are two options. Either let them play until one of them scores or give them more time, one minute at a time."
The boys looked at each other, then at their puppies, before sighing.
"They are tired, won't be able to play much." Kise shook his head.
"Besides, by the looks of it they won't score any time soon, no matter how much minutes we give them." Aomine added.
Momoi looked down, wondering what to do. Someone had to win. Right?
"Let them both have third place. Senshi and Hissori deserve it." Came Akashi's voice.
The three friends wondering what to do, looked up to see the rest of the Teiko team. The whole gang had come to their meeting.
"But is this fair?" Kise asked.
"Of course, that way we will move one place up, too." Kuroko said with that small smile of his.
"The third place winners are both Hissori and Senshi, it's decided." Akashi repeated.
Aomine and Kise looked at each other with bright smiles, giving the other a high-five. They could live with this result. Besides, their puppies were bound to be happy about it, too.
