I'm waiting for the opening round of the Grand Festival. I walk over to Anthony, who is also waiting, and say, "Same thing as last contest?" "Right." He replies.

I'm called up on stage then and send out the Evee twins. "Both of you fire energy balls at each other," I order telepathically, "Then hit them back and forth with your tails." I have them do that for about fifteen seconds, then I order them to hit the energy balls at each other, but catch it on the tips of their tails.

"Toss the energy balls at the same place." I order after about ten seconds. A huge shower of green sparks emerge, and the audience claps loudly. After the rest of the contestants go through the first round, they announce the coordinators moving on.

"Naru, Anthony ........" We look at each other and wink. This was the start of the biggest contest in the region. I would do my best.
