Fate may be on Discordia's side for this first match: She was up against the Freezer Burn team. And if they were going to fight, it was surely going to be on the lake, due to Fortuna's ice-themed magic. She wasn't going to complain about this battleground that was elected. Rather, she agreed to it, since it gave her opponents a possible advantage. Normally, someone on their right minds wouldn't agree in a situation that would naturally be disfavorable for them, but the corrupted idol had her own thoughts about it.

Both of her opponents were in a higher standing than Manami within the Detention Club, and they were in good terms with the President. She couldn't deny their strength, however there was something else that she could do: prove that she was stronger than them. And there was no better way of doing that than beating them in their own ground. This was a great opportunity, even if she were to lose in the finals: Defeating both Kanbaru and Chie would make her climb up the club's ladder. And, after all, Touka would have to leave at some point, and someone would have to fill the spot. It was nigh time Manami showed what she was capable of. 

Her teammate's words reached her, and the slightest hint of an arrogant grin curled her lips for a second as she caught the treat. [color=7ea7d8]"Ah, strategy, yes. It's simple, really: Don't get on my way. If you can manage to do that, then everything will go fine. Understood? Good".[/color] Discordia didn't wait for the other to reply, and treaded her path towards the battlefield. She couldn't deny that Kelly was right in something, though: their reputations were on the line here. And she wasn't going to let some slowpoke drag her down if she could avoid it.
