Cheering so loud caught everyone off guard. "People are thinking this is a conflicting moment. It's not for us. Let's all pray for success." she said. Kurt looked a bit upset at being interrupted by her. "Our family will rise no matter what. We'll make sure to use our connections to make a ton of money. It is going to be easy using your status as national icons." he said. That got him on the same page as his cousins as opposed to trying to undermine them at least. The boys liked both their cousins for the most part. They had a bit of a strained relationship since they awakened. Kurt and Damon looked down on them. Alphas always liked to demean and belittle omegas. Still, it was not like they hated Reid, Reilly, Ronan or Rhys. Kurt in particular was coming around to the fact that they could be allies in the future. He and Jeffery would be using them for connections and great money making opportunities. A clear, blue sky on the day of the tie was seen as a good sign. The weather was nice. Making their way there, the full family was ushered down to the front center block in the row.
The other members' families were on the wings. The families of the opposing team were on the second row. The third row was reserved for the rich that paid through the nose to get it. The orchestral pit was turned into a royal box for the king and his family. He had a new concubine with him. It was a redheaded omega female from a noble family. The venue was surrounded by the press and the royal guard. People wanted to ensure this was safe. The Burke Cup trophy was being transported by a long time representative of the IPTB. When they came on the stage, it was set up off to the side on a pedestal. He was the chairman of the Burke Cup committee. The man was a proud alpha with blond hair and jade green eyes. There was also the vice chairman. He was serving as the master of ceremony. It was on him to introduce the members of the visiting team. They came from the country of Filjon. Each of them got their full names and accolades read out. Then the same thing was done for Breaca's team. It was clear the Iduts all had good accomplishments. More that some alphas.
Everyone stood for the national anthem of the country that they were citizens of. The top ranked vocalists in the royal conservatory did the honors. A female alpha sung a stirring rendition of the Filjon anthem. A male alpha sung the anthem of Breaca with passion. From there, the chair umpire and the line judges took their places. The first rubber was Ronan's like always. He was facing off against an alpha male ranked 52 in the world. He was still no match for Ronan. Ronan took a commanding lead in the tie with the first rubber. 6-1, 6-3, 6-2 was the final tally. It was basically a blow out. This venue was an amphitheater. It was build with acoustics in mind. Every grunt and bounce of the ball echoed to the very top row of the seats. It really put the people in the frame of mind that they were courtside with them. The camera crews were right before the front row. Ronan had did his part. He was a big member of the Breaca national tennis team and he won his way to the finals. No one could take it all from him anymore. He laid it all out on their court. Anna was really proud of him too.
