At least have the decency to show up on time!

This is the 14th episode of unORDINARY.
Synopsis[]
The start of the Turf War match between Wellston High and Agwin High approaches. Arlo greets his opposite number, Broven. The Agwin King complains that they've been kept waiting for quite some time, and criticizes Arlo for instigating the competition only to show up late. Seraphina is not pleased to hear that Arlo lied about who challenged who. Arlo "apologizes" for his tardiness. Broven questions the point of Wellston throwing the gauntlet down when they're already the top dogs. Arlo tells him that he got word of a change in their roster: a Queen who's won them every match since joining. The story was enough to make him want to see for himself what she was capable of. Broven hopes Arlo gets his wish in the worst way possible.
As the challengers, Wellston has the right to decide match-ups. Arlo chooses one-on-one. Broven notices that an unfamiliar face is substituting for Wellston's usual queen. Arlo reveals that it's the previous Queen, Seraphina, making a brief comeback. Broven wonders why the name rings a bell when it hits him: the last time Agwin fought Wellston, Seraphina gave them a smackdown they'd never forget. Broven and his team were wiped out in a split second that day! He realizes that their winning streak is doomed, but Arlo wants to proceed.
Standard one-on-one rules are in effect: whichever team knocks out the others' entire roster wins. The Jacks are the first to fight, so Blyke and Gou take their places. Gou starts things off by charging towards Blyke at high speed. Blyke assumes he's dealing with close-quarters specialist, so he fires off some energy shots to try and maintain some distance. Gou demonstrates he's good at dodging, and he can take the hits just as well. Unencumbered by Blyke's barrage, he presses on until he leaps up. Blyke gazes skywards and realizes he only and moments to think of way out of getting pummeled into the ground. Gou uses his Super Strength to try and take out Blyke in one blow. But he realizes he's only managed to create a crater when he sees Blyke rocketing backwards with twin energy beams. Now in an ideal firing range, Blyke charges up a finishing move of his own.
Faced with a beam big enough to vaporize his entire body, Gou evades with another leap. Or rather, he tries to, but the width of the beam manages to catch his leg. He's not out of the action just yet, to Blyke's frustration. Gou tries some long-distance attacks of his own, flinging hefty rocks in his rival's direction. Blyke blasts the projectiles to dust, conveniently obscuring Gou's view in the process. By the time he can see Blyke again, he's in range of a point-blank wide beam. With a bad leg preventing any escape, Gou's defeat is certain...prompting Broven to call an end to the match. The King's decision means Wellston wins the first match. Gou is told to have his leg healed.
Since Blyke is victorious, he has to face off against the next member of the opposing roster: Rein, the allegedly unbeatable Queen of Agwin. She steps in and assures that she'll have everything under control.
