Supa Strikas: Play Through It to Own It

Halftime: Christmas Bash Part 2

Hey guys, Kalina here! Hope everyone is having a wonderful winter vacation. As promised, here's Part 2 of this halftime special. It's game time~!

>>>>>>>Rasta's POV>>>>>>>

[DAY 2...]

"Just another crazy year, aye, Dancing Rasta?"

"Dat's an understatement, man," Like de others, Riano and I watch Uber and Skarra stirring up some trouble.

Da coaches were generous enough ta' set up a canopy in de front lawn to have our meeting.

"And I say we replace it with chocolate. Besides, nobody likes fruitcake."

"Zat's because stollen (name of dish) is nothing like ze puny imitation, one."

"Well you can stuff that—"

"Guys," I holler, getting everyone's attention.

"We're barely halfway through preparations. We've got ta' focus, man."

Dat's when one of de employee's walks up.

"Miss Kalina is on her way." I nod in gratitude and turn back.

"Listen up...though given a heavy responsibility, Kalina's been dedicated to de work. But she can't do dis alone; even you two know it." They stay quiet and sit back down.

"She has been patient with all of us. Da least we can do is lighten de work for her." Da others nod or hum in agreement.

"Sorry-sorry~! I'm here!" Kalina comes up and sits at de end of de table near me and Riano.

"It took longer than I expected."

"It's okay," I reassure.

"How's it looking so far?"

"We've gone over everything, but dere are a few complications." I hand her the sheets. She flips through all of them.

"If things continue this way," Meda implies, "we're gonna have setbacks."

"The party will be delayed by a day or two," Zahir states.

"Hmm...food is essential, but depending on how the recipes are prepared, they can be time-consuming."

"The waiters," Chuck notifies, "told me that there are a shortage of assorted nuts; chestnuts especially. Oddly enough, they found them scattered across the kitchen."

"I hope no one was hurt. And...we're running low on decorations? How did that happen?"

"Not sure."

"My bros and I found some torn up," Skipper explains, "like some animal got to it or something."

"Maybe a squirrel?"

"It would have been a whole mess of them to do that."

Kalina closes her eyes, thinking.

"...I've got no choice."

>>>>>>>Riano's POV>>>>>>>

Kalina takes out her phone then dials a number, before putting it on speaker.

[Artistry Hut. How may I help you?]
