Ace crossed his legs as he looked at the screen in all seriousness. Gargi is not able to understand what's happening.
She quietly sat beside Ace and watched the screen as both the teams are in a serious match.
"Daman, to your left. The mid is hiding in the bushes. He is trying to attack you," Carl said as he helped Greyson fight off the front liner.
"Yeah... I can see him, I need Brooks help. Kayden is fighting the back liner," Daman said.
"One minute, I'm finishing off this one," Brooks said fighting with the second front liner.
"Okay... But make it fast."
"b***h," Carl muttered as his Avatar fell to the ground.
"Carl, move back and push your powers to me," Greyson said.
"Okay, I will come from behind and let's attack him from two sides," Carl said.
"Yes."
"In two seconds."
"Bastard... I need push up," Kayden said.
"Brooks help him out," Daman said looking at the screen.
"Yes!" Carl yelled as the enemy died.
"Carl moves towards Daman and helps him," Greyson said.
"Okay."
Greyson moved towards the base where the front liner is waiting for him.
"Team Vici gaming is tough," Zeke said.
"Hmm, they are. That's the reason they are in the semifinals," Logan said.
"They have improved their gameplay this year compared to last year," Rhett said.
"Yes, they are. We have to win the third round no matter what," Logan said.
"Yes."
"We have to," Myles agreed.
"Why are you so tense?" Julie asked her mum who is sitting beside her.
Gigi turned her head and looked at Julie. "If they don't win this round. They won't be qualified for finals," Gigi said.
"They will win. They have won the first round. They are playing well, you don't worry," Julie said looking at the screen.
"Haan."
Julie looked at the screen as her brother fought furiously. She is a bit nervous too but she feels like they are going to win this match.
"But are you going to be there for the brunch?" Gigi asked Julie.
"Brunch?" Julie asked turned around.
"Yes, we are staying back to have brunch together with other parents and also with the team," Gigi said.
"Okay, I will see if I can stay for brunch," Julie replied.
"Okay."

"That's it, people! We have our first finalists with us! Team A and B!" The anchor yelled standing up from his seat.
"Finalists entering the house!"
"Wow! That's big news! Team A and B getting into the tournament!"
"Congratulations!"
"Congratulations!"
A sigh left Ace's mouth as he closed his eyes. He did a quick prayer in his mind.
"f**k! That was intense!" Rhett said jumping on his seat.
"It was!" Zeke said hugging Grant.
"Man!" Daman and Carl hugged tightly.
"Congratulations," Gargi greeted Ace.
Ace looked at Gargi, he nodded his head. "Thank you."
Greyson looked at where Ace is standing. Ace turned his head and looked at Greyson.
Greyson nodded his head and Ace nodded back giving a thumbs-up.
"Woah! Grey was so cool!" Julie said in excitement looking at her brother.
"He is... He is..." Gigi said brightly smiling.
"Bro! We did it!" Carl said.
"Yeah!" Kayden said hugging Brooks.
"That was intense!" Brooks said.
"It was."
"Good one," Greyson said looking at his team.
"Yes." They all smiled brightly looking at each other.
Team Vici Gaming started walking towards the boys as they shook their hands one by one.
"Congratulations."
"Thank you."
"Good play, boys."
"Thank you."
"All the best."
"Thank you."
"Best of luck."
"Do your best."
"Nice play."
"Thank you."
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations."
"Thank you."
The boys excitedly and happily shook their hands before wandering towards where their brother Ace stood.
Diego narrowed his eyes as the boys rushed towards the masked man.
Ruth, Antonio and Preston turned their heads and looked at Kaleb who opened the door dramatically.
"What happened?" Antonio asked looking at a heavy breathing Kaleb.
"Wassup bro?" Preston asked.
Kaleb wandered inside the room, closed the door.
Diego observed that the boys hugged the man and they were saying something excitedly.
"I... I saw..." Kaleb started saying.
"You saw what?" Ruth asked not at all interested in the conversation.
"I saw Maya didi and her husband Sawyer," Kaleb finished his sentence.
Ruth's eyes widen along with Antonio's. Diego turned his head and looked at Kaleb.
"Are you serious?" Antonio asked.
"Where did you see?" Ruth asked.
"Who is Maya didi and Sawyer?" Preston asked.
"Yes, I saw them in audience row. They are here to watch the match," Kaleb said.
"Have you seen Ace?" Ruth asked standing up from her seat.
"No, I only saw them. They were smiling and hugging each other. I was going to talk to them but I couldn't go as there are many people," Kaleb explained.
"Does Samuel knows about this?" Antonio asked.
"I don't know man. I just ran here when I saw them. I don't think Samuel knows about them," Kaleb said.
"Let's go and meet them," Ruth said picking her jacket.
"Are you crazy? You will go and meet them in between all of them?" Antonio asked pointing to the screen.
Diego didn't say anything just watch Team A and B. He is listening to the conversation but somewhere he feels like he is missing something.
"This is the only chance we have," Ruth said looking at Kaleb and Antonio seriously.
"The only chance to know about Ace. We haven't met any one of them even if we tried to contact them. Now they are here, we have the chance to talk and know where Ace is," Ruth said.
Preston stayed quiet understanding what they are talking about.
There was a knock on the door and Samuel entered the room.
"What you are saying is right. Let's send Samuel and call them here. So that we can have a private conversation," Antonio said.
"What private conversation? What you are talking about?" Samuel asked not understanding.
Diego silently watched Samuel. He has his doubts and his questions will be answered by Samuel.
"I saw Maya didi and Sawyer. They are here to watch the match. We want to meet them, don't tell me that we can't. I know they are going to be there for some time. Before they leave, bring them here," Ruth said.
Diego watched as Samuel's eyes slightly widen before he composed himself. Diego's questions are answered.
"What? No, they are not here," Samuel said.
"They are here, I saw them, Samuel," Kaleb said.
Diego turned and started walking off the room. Samuel looked at Diego.
"Where you are going?" Samuel asked Diego.
Diego didn't say anything as he opened the door and started walking towards the tunnel.
A lot of questions are running in his mind. There were a lot of dots that he needed to join and he feels like he almost connected the doubts.
