Jellyneo's Altador Cup Tournament

In the end, there can only be one...

As the members of Neopia prepare themselves for the battle of the year, the staff of JN began to discuss the probable winners of this year's competition:

"I've got my money on Meridell this year." Herdy said sitting back and sipping his Diet Terry.

"Why Meridell?" Nynex challenged, "I doubt they would win, they've been overkilled with all the plots. See, Terror Mountain is probably going to get the most attention, because their plot was well done, but it left people asking questions."

"Who says the land needs a plot to gain attention?" Jen called from her position on the meepit-shaped bean bag chair, "Faerieland can gain as much attention as any other world without having a plot focused there."

Dandy chuckled, "Yeah, like Faerieland would win."

"Like the Citadel will for a second time?" Joey responded, nodding at the premature celebratory Darigan Citadel jersey Dandy was sporting. "Clearly Brightvale is going to win, because this year people are going to realize that intelligence is key."

"Well no matter how much you think, Tyrannia can just trample you with their brute force!" Rylon contested.

1337 then entered saying, "But Kreludor has trained to the best of both worlds so they could beat you both!"

"But you forget that that Kreludor could be crushed where they stand by Neopia's gravity because their programmers don't know a thing, unlike Virtupets'." Scissors pointed out.

"Let's not forget about the Lost Desert," Mike shouted.

"I simply enjoy playing the game, myself," Rosie said in the spirit of a true Rooligan.

From here we're not entirely sure what happened, except that somehow a pink and purple keychain ended up in Rylon's nose, Illy had successfully forced Katje into a headlock, and Rosie had force fed Joey much of the stuffing from the aforementioned Meepit chair.

"Will you all be QUIET!" Dave yelled storming in from his office. He surveyed the scene in the shocked silence that followed. "If you guys keep fighting I will have the snack machines turned off for a month! Now, we all know that fighting about which team is going to win is pointless. Why don't you guys just have a tournament yourselves and get it over with." Quietly to himself he added, "They have the energy."

Dave quietly re-entered his office and sat down to return to his work when he realized he was sitting in the festive colours of the Maraqua team. "TERRY, GET OUT!" Dave yelled and there was a scampering from the room.

So the goal has been set. In conjunction with each day of the Altador Cup, the staff members will be in competition with each other, to see which one will be left standing. Will it be Ruby "the Buckaneer"? Or maybe the vicious Luke, representative of the Haunted Woods. It could even be Suzuka with her Shenkuu ninja skills. But one thing is for certain: there can only be one...
