Chapter 7

Gaming Team Tournament

Takahashi

I noticed that Vergil, and Sumire were talking about something below the tree, so I shouldn't bother them. Dion, and Kyousuke were talking about something, but I couldn't hear them from the strong wind. I felt the wind picking up speed, and wonder if it's going to rain today. Me, and Sumire talk about where should we go for the Little Busters event.

"Ayame, do you have some suggestions for a place to spend our time?" I ask her.

"How about the park?" She smile.

"I don't know, what if it rain when we're there."

"You do have a point." She sigh, but then she got something. "If we can't go outside, then we should go to the Arcade."

"Wow, you like to go there too?" I said with amazed.

"Of course, I'd visit the Arcade all the time, since it's not too far from here."

"Okay, then we should go there for the day." I smile, and we left the Baseball field where everyone is still thinking about their destination. We reach the street, and there weren't many people around, but car passing in the streets with their headlights on. It felt a bit dark, because of the dark clouds covering the sun, and I felt bit cold.

"Yuuto, how do you join the Little Busters, you don't look like a outside guy material."

"That's harsh to say, but true all the same." I responded. "Well, Vergil, and Kyousuke approach me to join them, but I refuse them all the time, but they were still persistent about me joining them."

"So, how did they managed to make you join them?" Ayame ask.

"They challenge me to a video game to decided that if I win I don't join Little Busters, and if I lose I have to join them."

"And you lost, but you seem like a video game expert!?"

"I don't know how they pull it off, but it feel like I was playing against Vergil, and Kyousuke at the same time" Still, I'm happy that I lost, regardless of my loss in a video game, and they made me realize how truly excited is the real world, maybe…they can..wait..I'm forgetting something very important, but…

"Oh no…" I mumble.

"What's wrong?"

"I forgot the Tag team tournament is starting today!?" I said.

"Oh, you mean the tournament in the Arcade?"

"Yeah, I'm one of the participant of that tournament." It's weird for me to forget something very important to me like video game related stuff, and spending most of the time playing with the Little Busters, and forgetting about my problems.

"So, what the problem, we're close to the Arcade after all."

"Well, I need another person with me to enter the competition. Maybe I can ask Vergil or Kyousuke for help..no..they are probably already gone from the baseball field by now.."

"Then, how about me?" Ayame smile.

"You?...you know how to play video game?" I ask her.

"Of course! I did mentioned that I go to the Arcade didn't I?"

"You're right, and sorry if I'm bothering you with my problems."

"It's okay, we're apart of the Little Busters, we should always help one another."

Help one another. .heh.. I wouldn't though of that when I was alone, but I like that.

"Thanks for helping me, Ayame." I smile, and we continue our walk in the cloudy day toward the Arcade. We arrive to the Arcade, and as I remember last competition, there was the stage set up with the many chairs in the front of the stages, and with four computer already in the stage. I guide Ayame to the back of the stage to prepare ourselves.

"Amazing, do you always come here?" Ayame ask.

"Yeah, once a year I come here, and accept peoples challenge, but today's challenge is against some pro gamer." I answer.

"Pro gamer?"

"They are two guys who are good with team work, and hardly everyone can beat them when they're together."

"I'm not worry, I'm confidence that we can win!" Ayame said with confidence.

"I don't know if you're skill at video game or a fool, but you are right about our win. Anyway, that our opponent, now I can explain the video game we're going to play with them." I explain to Ayame, and she nodded.

"The games is about star gods aiming to become an administrator, but that not important right now, the goal of the game is to pick a star god with another person, and fight until all the opponent life reach zero."

"Yeah, I remember playing that game all the time when I come here."

"I see, that should speed up the game mechanics then, so-"

"So, you really came Yuuto." I heard a voice call out my name, and I look behind to see two boys that are my opponent, but somehow they were wearing animal costume, and voice modifiers. One was a white cat, and the other one is a black cat.

Why do they disguise them self for? Maybe that how they enter for the competitions, and I shouldn't bother asking.

"Of course, I won't lose to you two." I answer.

"You seem pretty confidence, and with a girl as your partner." He laugh, and Ayame was angry.

"What did you just say!" Ayame said with anger.

"I said, I can believe a little girl ca-" The white cat drag the black one, while the black cat yelled toward Ayame.

The way those two fight remind me of someone I know, but…maybe I'm over thinking it.

"Hmph! We will show them." Ayame said.

We enter the stage, ready for the match to begin, and we both sat down next to each other. I felt my hand sweating, and my breathing pattern became not normal either.

Am I feeling pressure in video game..but how? I never felt like I had nothing to lose, and yet-

"Yuuto!" Ayame snap me out of my thoughts, and I turn around to see her.

"Let's win this competition for the Little Busters." Ayame said to me.

Little Busters..yeah, I'm not alone this time, but rather people are supporting me this time, and I must win for them.

"Yeah, let's do this for the Little Busters!" I said.
