Meanwhile, Alex was swimming around the sphere after Jake, while also struggling against opponents purposely trying to tackle her and bump her out of the way. Growling, the red head waved her arms and knocked them to the side before she rammed into Jake. Knocking the air out of him as the impact forced the ball from his fingers. In which, she quickly snatched away. Time was running out and Jake had managed to catch up to her point wise because of his little stunt. The tall woman struggled to keep the ball, feeling impact after impact as contestants smacked into her. Elbows smashing into skin, one even to her jaw, but she stubbornly knocked them off and held the ball protectively. Still, she was sure she was going to be bruised up the next morning. Time ticked and ticked until her eyes caught sight of Naisha, unconsciously looking to her friend in the crowd and saw quite a sight.

It seemed Naisha had lost her temper, and Alex wasn't particularly sure what happened, but worry gripped her heart that made her lose focus and gaze at Naisha, concern evident in her blue eyes. Before she felt a sharp rough force as Jake slammed his knee against her side, flinging her through the water and out of the sphere and into the nets below. Just as she exited, she could hear Wakka shout out,

[color=orange]"Time!!"[/color]

Feeling her back smash against the netting below, she coughed and groaned, rubbing her head before glaring up as Jake crossed his arms from within the sphere, giving a cocky grin and sticking his tongue out and snickering. Face twitching in irritation, she raised her hands and flipped both middle fingers at him.

[color=plum]"Naisha! What is the meaning of this?"[/color] Yuna spoke out as she came from behind Lulu and walked towards the young girl, her voice a bit more softer, yet stern. But much more gentle and concerned compared to Lulu's shout.
