Zo Junior has demonstrated that he is a high-flying performer in Yooyuball and can speedily get the ball down to the other end of the field. Contrarily his defending and diminutive size do not go to his advantage.
I didn’t know you were back already, Crade. You should have come to say hi, the team was hoping to take you to the Fairground to celebrate your return!
Is something eating you?
Huh? What do you mean?
Yeah...?
Crade... do you think we brought you onto the team because you painted yourself Wraith?
Hey, do you remember Wan Dirx?
It wasn’t just ‘some reason.’ You know we had dozens of Neopets—and monsters—lined up to play for us when he retired? When you were still purple? We coulda picked any of them. Dirx coulda picked any of them. But we all chose you. In fact, we didn’t even realise you’d painted yourself Wraith until after we’d decided you were the only defender for us.
Because we knew you. You’d been with us longer than anyone else, and we’d seen you on the pitch. Sure you weren’t as strong as Dirx, or as big as some of the tryouts—
—But, if you’ll let me finish… We knew you had heart. You organised that birthday party for Fanetti, and helped get Flankins out of Captain Krell’s fur the night before our first match in the Year 10 Cup. Not to mention how many times you’ve stopped Brains from trying to eat the Brain Tree.
And speaking of Brains, you were the first one who realised he could say more than just ‘braaaaaiiinnnssss’ over and over again!
Me neither. My point is… you’re a part of the team no matter what you look like. So if you want to go back to being purple, you don’t have to worry.
So… do you want to go back to being purple?
