THE CONQUEST LIST CHAPTER SIXTY-FIVE
GOING TO CHURCHANDREW'S APARTMENT, 7:30PM"Remind me why I agreed to this again," Andrew grumbled while coming out of the closet dressed in a charcoal black suit with a black bow tie to match. He had on designer shoes to complete his look.His jet-black hair was combed backwards in a different style from the one he usually did, which made him look just like a model on the runway, rather than someone who just got out of the shower after having little sleep."You agreed because you wanted to," Robin answered coming out of another closet in the room.She had on a grey coloured, knee length dress that highlighted her curvy, but slender body. Her long ginger red hair was plaited in a French braid, which made her look more mature than usual."You look good babe. Damn good," Andrew praised."Of course I do. Be quick we have to be early so that we can meet the first service. Your parents will be here soon," she said as she took a seat on the couch in the room.Looking into the large mirror i

DEALSANDREW'S APARTMENT, 12PMRobin spent the rest of the morning after church, preparing light snacks and refreshments for The Bravers alongside Sophie and Gabrielle.The rest of Andrew's family had gone home to rest so that they could make it early to The Beehive Arena, the next day for the competition."You see how good they turned out? I told you I make the best hors d'oeuvres in New York City," Gabrielle bragged."Oh please Brie, my cupcakes taste much better than your ridiculous h'ors d'oeuvres which I just can't stop eating," Robin retorted before sneaking another samosa into her mouth."Why do you keep eating them then?" Gabrielle laughed.Beating Robin's hand, Sophie said, "You think her hors d'oeuvres are ridiculous, but you keep eating them. At this rate, there'd be nothing left for us to serve the club members.""Ouch that hurt, Soph. You're just jealous because you haven't been away to eat any of hers yet. I love your punch and cocktails though, the taste is very differe

REVELATIONSANDREW'S APARTMENT, 12:30 PM"What do you think? Of course, you have to apologize to her. I told you she was innocent, but you just won't listen," Stanley said.Looking down at her phone with a smile, Robin read the text message Andrew sent to her.MESSAGE DETAILS: Get everyone seated, we're in the parking lot now. Harry shouldn't suspect anything when we walk into the house."Okay, Riley, Gabe, Sophie and Brie, you all have to go downstairs. Andrew and Harry will be here any minute from now. Everyone, please be quiet, okay?" Robin told them all.After they had all relaxed in their seats and pretended like they were discussing other club related matters, Andrew and Harry walked into the room.Fiddling with his glasses, Harry said, "Sorry that I'm late guys. So what system do I use? I think we need to work on our speed first. I noticed most of us are quite slow in comparison with the other teams."Taking a seat in the swivel chair with President written on it, Andrew replie

PAPER BAGS AND GUMMY BEARSTHE BEEHIVE ARENA, 9:30 AM"Babe, check out who's here to cheer us on!" Andrew said with a smile when Robin opened the door of the room reserved for her in the arena.The competition was to begin in thirty minutes time and all gamers had been given rooms to rest and practice in.She had been working on her increasing the speed of her programming skills. The previous day after the meeting, Harry left, saying he could practice well enough on his own.That left Andrew ensuring that all The Bravers played virtual football matches against one another in pairs. They also made some amendments to Campus Silence, Love Run and SAFE.Robin was indeed tired due to the constant training sessions they all went through all night long and now even with bags under her eyes, she was still very much excited to compete."Who is it?" She asked while rubbing her eyes tiredly after letting Andrew in.Jack then walked into the room with a huge smile and said in a rush, "Hi my cutes

DAY 1 ONCE AGAINTHE BRAVES WAITING ROOM, 10:00 AMRobin stepped back from Harry and said, "Let's all go out now. It's 10:00 AM already."Why didn't I get a hug?" Harry frowned."That's because you don't deserve it," Robin replied tartly."Ladies and gentlemen, we welcome you once again to The Regional Gaming Competition. As you all know, the competition was scheduled for last week, but due to some misunderstandings, it had to be postponed to this week. Who is excited?" Alan's voice came booming from all the speakers in the arena."I am!" The fans replied, excitedly."The competition has started, can you please keep quiet?" Robin frowned and then all The Bravers focused their attention on the large LED TV in the room, which showed what was happening on stage.★★★★★★THE BEEHIVE ARENA, 10:02 AMThe fans showed their excitement when the camera focused on their corner as they sprayed confetti and raised thundersticks to cheer their preferred teams on.

Harry shouted as the security guards took him by the arms and dragged him away."What do you think they're gonna do to him?" Robin asked I'm fear."It's definitely gonna be what he deserves," Roberto replied.★★★★★THE BEEHIVE ARENAMax Reed was also dragged up to the stage for questioning and Camila couldn't sit put while her nephew was being maltreated, so she stood up and asked, "Who do you think you're dragging that way? Max is my nephew and I have the feeling that he has been set up by someone. I'm sure that Robin Stevens must have set Max up, she was the one who sold those ideas to him. There must be a mix up somewhere!""Miss Reed I advise you to have your seat and stop giving those remarks.

Robin asked fearfully.The look Andrew gave her had her shivering on the inside."He can't do anything, don't worry about him," Andrew replied, holding her hand."Okay ladies and gentlemen, with that settled, I believe we can all continue with the competition. Bravers, you're free to go back to your seats, thank you. We've wasted enough time indeed," Vanessa said after The Storm Team alongside Harry was led out of the arena."Now that The Storm Team is out of the competition, we have only nine teams left. Jeffery Michaels will give us a report on the top leaders of the first round. This round has a total of thirty points and the next one has a total of forty points. Any team that fails to make up to fifty points from the first two rounds added together, would not qualify for the final round. Are you guys excited to find out which team has won this popularity round?" Alan asked."Yes

ROBIN?"And 1. Programmers, please proceed. You have thirty-five minutes to finish all fifty questions. Remember to use at least forty seconds for each question," Alan announced.The Bravers as well as other teams quickly gathered around three computers and started working on the first ten questions.Andrew sat in front of the system for problem-solving while the other Bravers sat behind the two other systems for offence and defence."It seems like Andrew Grey's team are more relaxed this year and their speed this time is also very good," Linda, one of the commentators remarked."Yes, you're right Linda. Oh, wait, it seems like Team Ice is trying to launch an attack on The Braves, but of cause they are quick enough to defend it. It seems like The Bravers came in very prepared!" Alex, the other commentator replied.Robin watched Andrew from where she and the other Bravers sat and never before had she felt so tensed. She watched the frown of concentration on Andrew's face as he solved t

ONCE AGAINTWO YEARS LATER...ACHIEVERS UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, 2 PMROBIN'S POVPaying the designated driver, I got out of the car with my handbag and waited for him to get the rest of my luggage from the car trunk.After ensuring that all my things were out, I thanked him before he drove off.Looking at the environment around me, I smiled as I took in the beautiful decorations of AUT. The beauty of this college seemed to have augmented since the last time I was here two years ago.After admiring the college entrance for about two full minutes, I took out my phone to call Stacey. She and I were still in touch even though I was away in London for the past two years.The previous week when I informed her of the fact that I was done with the graphic designing training that Uncle Joe had enrolled me for and that I was gonna be coming back to AUT, she had screamed in unconcealed excitement and promised to pick me up at the school gate when I arrived.When she had said that, I had asked

RINGS AND KNIVESTHE BEEHIVE ARENA, 12 NOON."Yes, you heard me correctly guys, Robin is more qualified than anyone else to play for us in virtual football. I got to know about her amazing skills on the night of our app launch party. She and I played together and she almost beat me, in fact, we eventually settled at equal scores. I think she was going easy on me that night. You know me, I'm not the type to admit that anyone else is better than me, so it takes a lot of courage for me to give Robin this role. If there's anyone who isn't in support of this, please indicate," Andrew said seriously."Jack has told me about her amazing skills, but I never thought she could beat you at your best sport, Drew. If you think she's good, then she must be." Miller teased while laughing."Shut up Mill," Joe playfully hit Miller's shoulder while laughing."Team leaders from The Gators, The Believe Team and Team Ice, please bring your players to the tournament corner.
