CHAPTER NINETY-TWO OF DOOM
"I admit, you're good," Torrin said. "But we're better. Now if you don't mind, we're going to go focus on winning this competition."

He helped Jamal get up, then they all started walking away.

"Hey! What about our fight?" Rune demanded.

"Not really the time," Torrin called back. "We fight, neither of us will have time to win."

"Looks like this isn't a battle, then," Caitlyn said to Rune. "Shame. There goes what we're best at."

"Plan B, then," Yliaster muttered. "We follow the Supernovas, without letting them see us, until we can figure out the goal of the competition from them."

"With all due respect," Roy added. "We could also find the Circle Crew or the Dark Materials team. If Becca or Darian has figured out the goal already, we can just ask them."

"Not to mention Kaye's group," Caitlyn said. "Or Z Shiki, the guy who helped us find out Torrin's hidden agenda. For once, we're not short of potential allies."

"Let's just follow them," Rune said.

They started walking the same way the Supernovas had gone. Using the trees for cover, they kept their eyes focused on Torrin passing through the forest.

Torrin paused and knelt to the ground. After moving a few dead leaves around, he picked up a small blue sphere with a picture of a spider on it.

"Perfect," one of the other Supernovas said. "First ten minutes and we've already got one! Fterá ti̱s katastrofí̱s!" The Supernova grew a pair of glowing black wings, which struck the sphere and shattered it into a thousand pieces. Not far away, six blasts emerged from the ground to the sky.

"Attention!" the voice of Cedric Doyle shouted. "The Vortex Spiders have been eliminated from the competition!"

"Think I figured out the goal," Yliaster said. "We have to destroy the teams' spheres. If we can break the sphere with the Supernovas' logo, we can win... But if anyone breaks the one with the green triangle..."

"We've got to find as many as we can," Rune said. "Protect ours, break theirs. Do whatever it takes to take the Supernovas down."

"Hey, look at this," Jamal was saying.

"What do you know?" Torrin said, picking up another sphere. "Two for the price of one! Awesome."

The sphere he'd picked up had a picture of a green triangle on it.
