Not much to say about this. It's very brief, only about two pages long, but I made it both to help develop my character a bit better for the competition as well as confirm his role in the story.
As far as chronology goes, these events are supposed to take place shortly after round 3 concludes, but before round 4 begins. As such, I made sure to write it so that it won't matter how things go during the 3rd match, so it will not affect any entries currently in production (or vice-versa).
Alex is mine, Pukachi belongs to
pukachi, and the contest is organized by
lapseph (who also drew the comic I ripped the icon from).
EDIT: Oh yeah, and thanks to an idea given to me by a previous entry in the contest, I've decided to include a "theme" to this entry. Specifically, Highly Responsive to Prayers, from the video game of the same name. I just felt it matched the atmosphere that occurs throughout the conversation.

Oooo...mysterious. Now I know where the psychic sync came from, but I came out of reading that with more questions than when I went in. Guess you or Sefra will remedy that with a later submission, neh?
Overall, I like it, but I'm curious why you keep using "they" for Pukachi. Is it because s/he is genderless? It's a shame we don't have a personal pronoun for indeterminate gender other than "s/he," due to the awkwardness involved, and "it" gives connotations of something being an object. Curse you, limited language!

I wouldn't really use that wording either, but Pukachi said s/he would since Alex ended up getting a window into their initial motives (searching for one of their friends) while they just learned that the island has a secret (which they either already knew or would learn anyhow) and that he's not trusted by any of the other strikers.
And yeah, or at least that's what I'm hoping will come of all this. Only thing is I'm not sure how many other spectator entries I'll do (and it doesn't help that it's starting kinda late, but I couldn't really do anything about that since it's only just been revealed to the audience that the brothers are more or less "seperate" from the rest of the striker team).
