Justa put on his summoners' robes and sighed. He had butterflies in his stomach, worse than ever. His whole future was riding on the shoulders of these next matches, as did his chances of seeing Ahri again and not acting like a coward. He was incredibly grateful for Gyree risking everything for him and he must not fail him. He straightened his robes and strode out the door confidently, only to stride right into Ahri and Gyree; who were waiting outside; knocking them both over.

Many summoners rushed to Ahri's aid quickly and berated Justa for the mistake, who turned beet red.

"Watch it you oaf!"

"What the hell do you think you're doing?"

"Fucking idiot…"

The trio picked themselves up, with Ahri declining all the extended hands of the male summoners, instead opting for Justa's.

"I'm so sorry miss Ahri… I was just, I mean… Sorry… Was walking…"

Ahri gently touched him on the shoulder, breaking through his stream of apologies, "Don't worry Justa, I understand. All that's important to me is that you win this match. Just focus. And please, drop the formalities."

"Yes Ahri." Justa smiled a tiny smile, even under the glares of the other summoners.

Gyree cut through, "Ahri, Justa; let's hurry, the match will begin in 17 minutes"

Champion selection was as normal, with the standard meta teams. Gyree's team (Blue side) having a Gnar top, Lee Sin jungle, Syndra mid, Gyree as Vayne ADC, and Justa supporting with Nami. The opposing team (Purple side) was extremely cancerous for Gyree; having a Darius top, Rengar jungle, LeBlanc mid, Caitlyn ADC, and Sona supporting. As the popped into the rift Gyree wasn't confident.

"We're boned" he thought

"You know we can all hear you" Vayne thought

"Oops. Goddam."

"It's OK everyone." Justa said, "I have mountains of CC, so if we pin any one target down, he's easy pickings."

The game was playing out alright, with the Gnar dominating top, but Syndra's lack of mobility and the LeBlanc clone creating a real problem mid. Bot lane was mostly stable, with both supports dying to an opposing ADC when Rengar ganked. Rengar would be back bot soon though, Justa sensed it.

Just then, the red exclamation point appeared above Gyree, so he tumbled closer to the tower, out of the close bush where they were trying to bait Cait and Sona in with a "free" Nami. Rengar flash jumped, causing Gyree to tumble backwards and knock him into the tower range. Justa countered with a bubble and sent the wave, burning Rengar's flash to run.

"I'm going in." Gyree said.

"I'll get bubble in 6, it's too risky."

"No, we have to commit now." said Gyree as he tumbled in, chasing Rengar.

Justa had no choice but to follow. Rengar jumped back to his Nami and struck him, he launched a 5 bounce Ebb and Flow. Caitlyn and Sona were chucking Gyree hard, but he killed the Rengar with the third shot. Sona ulted him a moment after, prompting his heal. As they both retreated, each with 200 health, Caitlyn started lining up her Ace in the Hole.

"Just accept the loss Justa. We got one, so it was worth."

Justa wasn't about to accept the loss, he noticed Sona heading under tower to go back. He could save Gyree. Flashing to a bubble right when Caitlyn was about to fire. The channel cancelled, Caitlyn turned on Justa, but he healed himself with Ebb and Flow and ran. Caitlyn followed, but had no chance of catching him. He had saved Justa's life.

The rest of the game was extremely close, with Gnar and Vayne hyper carrying. However, Justa got a few good bubbles and waves in, saving each from the red team many times. As the enemy Nexus burst, Gyree and Jasta exchanged high fives. Ahri was ecstatic with delight. After being officially admitted into the league by a reluctant Summoner Davis, Justa went immediately to thank Gyree.
