"This trash group! Smile now because it won't last long! I'll make sure of it!" Victor's gaze follows Pedro's group as they exited the arena.
...
"I know a good place to do our meeting! Hehe!" Charlotte made a cute look trying to attract Pedro and Aldo. Unfortunately, it only worked to Aldo. Aldo looked like an in love Idol fan as if saying "Go ahead and lead the way! I'd follow you even to the furthest stars!".
"Lead the way then! We'll just follow!" Charlotte walked forward at a confident pace as the rest of the group follows. Minutes later, they arrived at a room in the administration building.
...
"Lock the doors, our discussion is confidential!" Sabrina locked the front door while Elisabeth locked the back door.
"Ok, Let's start! First of all, let me confirm who would be the team captain?" Pedro only acted as the 'temporary' leader. It was not good to assume that he was the leader of the group already. Hence, to avoid conflicts, he wanted the group to have a formally elected group leader(a team captain) and
a vice-captain.
"Aren't you the one?" Ashley had her arms crossed as Charlotte and Elisabeth glanced at her with a curious look.
"It is fine for me!" Sabrina nodded in agreement as she sat beside Loren. The others followed up with their agreements.
"Same!"
"Same!"
"Same!"
"Same!"
...
"Then, I'd be the team captain! In cases that I might not be around, we must also have someone to substitute for me, a vice-captain!" Pedro glanced to all of his teammates one by one.
"I think classmate Aldo would be a good choice!" Sabrina pointed to the silent Aldo who was sitting near the doors.
"Huh? Me? Why me?" Aldo wore an awkward look like saying 'these things started to become troublesome as time goes by!'.
"You guys might not notice it but classmate Aldo has a great perception of his surroundings!" Sabrina recalled that Aldo was able to grasp the situation even if his attention was focused on his PGC.
"Why don't we have cousin Ashley as a vice-captain? I mean... Won't she be a better choice? Among us three she had the best performance in the closed beta, having to die only four times! If not for her short temper, I would have wanted her to be the captain!" Sabrina and Loren have no intention of being the team's captain or even vice-captain. Hence, the choices were left to the rest of the team but Elisabeth was 'All looks, no brain', so she didn't consider herself to have such a role.
Among the three, Aldo and Ashley were the most suitable for the vice-captain position. The only reason why Sabrina suggested Aldo was because Ashley could leave the team in a month. Hence, picking Aldo was the ideal choice. He would gain experience that can be used in time for the team.
As for Charlotte and Elisabeth, Sabrina assumed that they might also leave the team once they find it necessary.
"About that... She is somewhat a 'temporary' member. Hence, It is best for the team if other members would take the role. That way, there wouldn't be a need for rechoosing for the position!" Sabrina nodded in agreement as Pedro explained why she was not a viable choice.
"Temporary member... Khuh! Sounds like her! Don't worry captain! I won't be the same!" Charlotte grinned to Ashley and looked confident with joining Pedro's team.
"So... Aldo would be the vice-captain!" Pedro smiled as he glances to his teammates, checking if anyone has any objections.
"I Agree!"
"Hah... I agree!"
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
"You didn't ask for my opinion... But I'm ok with it... Since you'd still be doing everything! HAHAHA!" Aldo laughed maniacally that creeped the hell out of everyone.
"Lastly for the team matters, Any suggestion for a team name?" One of the hardest parts of forming teams, guilds or such was the naming phase. Hence, Pedro decided to let the 'girls' choose the team name to avoid him and Aldo making the worst team name for them.
"Team Charlotte sounds good to me!" Aldo raised his hand as he shot up his seat like an avid fan of an Idol with hearts coming out from his eyes out of admiration.
'How shameless!' Loren could only facepalm herself and shook her head of humiliation from Aldo's, 'the vice-captain', act. Pedro and the other members could only wear an awkward smile as they look to the determined Aldo.
"Uhm... Since... Pedro... is the team captain... Why don't we name the team... Team Pedro?" The moment Sabrina finished speaking, Pedro and the other members, including Aldo, face slapped themselves.
"Ehm... Let's not use a member's name, shall we?" Everyone nodded to Pedro's suggestion, even Aldo, who started it.
"How does 'team PALACES' sound?" Loren combined the seven initials of their member's name that resulted in the word 'PALACES'.
"Ashley is just temporary, so I suggest our team name to only be 'team PLACES'!" Aldo interjected as the air between him and Loren started to become heated.
"If I may... since there are seven of us, why not name our team... 'Team Seven'?" Elisabeth stood with a smile.
"What is this? Naru@@?! Have some originality, you brainless B@TC@!" Charlotte pointed angrily to Charlotte as Aldo's attention was shifted back to her and started his creepy 'die-hard fan' act.
'She's so cute, even when angry!' Aldo looked hypnotized by Charlotte and if she wanted to, he can even be her puppet or pet to control.
"How about 'messed up team'!" Ashley chuckled as everyone glances at her.
"You're just a temporary member!!!" Everyone, except Pedro, shouted in unison. Ashley kept her grin even after becoming 'public enemy number one'.
"Then how about 'Team Number One'?" Pedro used the momentary silence to voice out his suggestion. The other members looked at him with a weird expression.
"What kind of naming sense do you have?" Ashley laughed at Pedro's suggestion as if it was the worst suggestion made. Sabrina could only shake her head as she understands what Ashley said.
"Hahahaha!" As Ashley laughed the rest followed and the room was filled with laughter.
"How about 'Team F1'?" As they calm down from laughing and Pedro blushed from humiliation, Loren suggested casually as she wipes the tears of joy from her eyes.
"I think that one is good!" Elisabeth wiped her teary eyes and supported Loren's suggestion.
"would you mind telling me why F1?" Everyone glanced to Loren in anticipation of her explanation after Charlotte asked her the meaning of 'F1'.
"Ah... It's Force as one! Meaning, all of us, together, as one strong force! That's all!" Loren begins to become comfortable with the team so as everyone. Hence, she explained it casually as if they are just friends having a talk.
"That's good for me!"
"I'm fine with it!"
"Let's go for that!"
"well... It doesn't matter to me. I could leave the group at a certain point!"
"Since all of you are in favor, our team would be called 'Team F1'!" Pedro smiled as he glances to his teammates until he glances to Aldo.
"Ehm... Captain... Pedro! Ain't it supposed to be Group F1? and not 'Team F1'!" Aldo wore a confused expression as he corrected Pedro of his error.
"Brother Aldo... It's Team F1! I want it to be a team and not a group, else you can change me as your captain!" Pedro confidently stood in front of the five. The purpose of the DepEdup was to lessen the difficulty of the game for the students. Hence, the grouping was implemented. However, groups do not promote a common goal for every member, that may cause conflict or a slower pace of development.
On the other hand, Teams promote a common set of goal that may lessen the number of conflicts that may occur at the same time increase the bond of the members that would consequently result in a huge improvement in their teamwork and coordination. This was especially important in raiding dungeons and high rating monsters.
"It's fine, It's fine!" Aldo shook his head and gestured that he had no problems with it. In fact, everyone understood what Pedro meant, especially the three Closed Beta Players. Their coordination with each other will play a huge role to survive in the early stages of the game.
"Then I'll proceed to the next topic to be discussed! The starting and survival tips!" Everyone wore an interested look as they stare at Pedro.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
