Chapter 144 - 138 - Jelly

Shallot and the girls were sitting waiting for the next match and say that it was Sun's and Neptune's Team. They saw that they were walking into the arena.

"Good luck, Neptune!" Weiss yelled out to give support to Neptune.

Neptune was walking and waving to the crowd when he saw his opponents. They were a team full of females.

"Well isn't that a nice team to look at?" Shallot thought while looking at the team.

"Ladies!" Neptune said while Weiss was looking at Neptune with fire in her eyes.

Yang was laughing at the side seeing that.

"I want someone that will only look at me. I am a Schnee and no Schnee would share their love." Yang mocked Weiss seeing how Neptune acted as soon as he saw the other team. The other team was full of females who walked and stood across from Team SSSN.

The leader has lightly tanned skin, indigo hair brushed over to her left side, and olive eyes. She wears a high-necked, tight-fitting gray shirt with dark gray accents, along with a long, lilac coat with one long sleeve with the other rolled up.

She wore a leather bandolier with a steel gray pauldron on the right shoulder, which also appears to hold her weapon. She wears a slanted dark gray belt on the second notch alongside a brėȧstplate that matches her pauldron.

She wears gray pants with dark gray boots with light gray laces alongside dark gray forearm length gloves with the left glove being fingerless and having a cuff. She also has a dark gray band around her right elbow with a smaller band on her upper left arm.

Next to her stood a young woman with lightly tanned/fair skin, dark blonde hair swept to the left, and violet eyes.

She also wears a pair of over-the-knee scale stockings, armored calf-high boots that match her spaulder though the rear of her calves is exposed and a simple chain bracelet with a ring connected to it on her right hand as well as a brown band around her left wrist with two beaded bracelets.

On the right of her was a young female with lightly tanned skin, curly black hair pulled back from her face into ringlets, and brown eyes with purple eye shadow.

She wears a black corset dress with a dark gray front, purple hem, and purple laces on the back. She wears a light gray top with short sleeves and black cuffs.

Her top also has a high gray collar that appears to be armored. Her belt is a long purple ribbon edged in gray, with a bow in the back and tied in the front, and connected to the belt are a pair of armor tassets that also act as storage for her weapon. Her shoes are flats and ribbons.

She also wears light gray stockings and pale gray ballet flats, with ribbons around her lower legs.

Shallot nodded his head seeing her thinking that she had a nice pair of legs. The stockings were a nice touch for the outfit.

"I like her outfit. Maybe I should mix in some more black into my outfit." Ruby said looking at the girls.

On the left of the team leader was a young woman with fair/lightly tanned skin, brick red hair left loose with swept fringe to the right and olive green eyes.

She wears a teal blue waistcoat with two long tails and a dark brown strapless top. A cropped sleeveless vest of the same color is worn over the top and waistcoat.

She wears a pair of navy belts crossed in the front and back and a pair of sky blue layered spaulders, held in place by a dark brown leather strap across her ċhėst. Her shoes are a pair of simple, navy blue ankle boots with folded over top and brick redlining. She also has a navy blue chocker.

"I like her style," Yang said looking at the outfit. Weiss nodded thinking that the entire team knew how to coordinate their outfit.

Neptune winked at the girls while Weiss balled up her fist. She stared at the back of Neptune's head while standing up pointing at him.

"Break his stupid face, NDGO!" Weiss yelled out.

Weiss was already slightly bitter with Yang mocking her a couple of seconds ago but now Neptune was flirting with other girls right in front of her.

"Alright, girls, try and remember, hands above the waist," Neptune said with a smug smile on his face.

The buzzer sounded and the match started. The match terrain was that of a desert while the other was an aquatic area.

"Huh?" Neptune said seeing the water.

"I guess they are unlucky this match." Shallot said.

"Why is that?" Ruby asked seeing Neptune run from the water area and getting to the other team's side.

"3,2,1 Begin!" Professor Oobleck did the countdown for this match.

"Neptune is afraid of water," Blake said when she remembers asking if they wanted to go to the pool with them and Team JNPR after the tournament. She and Shallot noticed that Neptune's face became pale when hearing that they wanted to go swimming.

The match went with mostly Sun's Team being pushed with it being mostly a 3 against 4 since Neptune wasn't trying to get close to the water.

Almost everyone on Sun's team was almost defeated when the girls from Team NDGO were in the water.

Neptune jumps over to a spot near the coastal line next to Sun, and he unfolds Tri-Hard into its trident form before tip-toeing forwards and, eyes closed, plunges the sparking prongs into the water.

The energy surges through the deep until the remaining members of NDGO are electrocuted and sink to their knees in the water, smoking and defeated with the sound of the buzzer.

"And with that, Team SSSN moves on to the doubles round! (to Oobleck) You know what I call that victory?" Professor Port said over the mic.

"Shocking?" Professor Oobleck said while Professor Port just gave him a disapproving nod.

"No, well earned. What you said is stupid." Professor Port said while showing Team SSSN on the board as the victor.

"That was closer than I expected?" Ruby said while wondering how they managed to still win when at a disadvantage due to Neptune's fear of water.

"Looks like the dorks made it to the next round!" Yang said while looking at the tired Sun and teammates who were glaring at Neptune.. They all broke into smiles then started dancing like idiots.
