As I set up the cups, fairies began to filter in. I wanted to gawk and watch them each, but I needed to focus, so I kept at my task. On each side of the table I set up ten cups in a triangle like bowling pins. Then I opened the beers and poured them into the cups, careful to make sure it was even if Maeve was playing by the rules, I had to too. Since I was setting them up, there was no chance of someone doing something to the drinks. That being said, I kept an eye on Edward whenever he was in the room. I didn’t want to get fairy roofied again when the stakes were this high. Or ever again.

It was done. The beer pong was set up and the room was teeming with Fae Folk who buzzed and hummed amongst themselves laughing and tittering at me, scrawny little me in ripped jeans and a Hawaiian shirt, taking on an eight foot tall tree woman with an army at her command.

The hubbub died a little as Maeve approached the other side of the table. Her antlers were smaller than they had been and the collar of branches was gone. Perhaps for more humanlike movements. Her eyes were the same, and so was the green light throbbing in her chest.

“Julian Sanchez.” she said loudly and clearly. “You have challenged me to this silly human game for your freedom. Please—” She spread her hand to the room. “Tell us the rules.

I cleared my throat, as every eye in the room turned to me.

“This is a party game called Beer pong” I said as loudly as I could without my voice breaking. “It is simple. The goal is to keep as many of your cups as you can, while getting as many of your opponents cups out. We’ll play by the simpler rules, so to get a cup out you toss the ball from here.”

I positioned myself behind the table, and held one of the ping pong balls in my hand. I looked at Maeve’s cup and tossed the ping pong ball which fell perfectly in the front cup with an audible plop. I started around the table back to fish the ball from her cup. “If I were to get my ball in her beer, she has to drink that beer.”

I went back to where I started. “I could also get the ball in like this.”

I threw it again, this time letting it bounce on the table before landing in the same cup as before.

“But it can’t bounce more than once. We cannot touch the ball until it has bounced more than once or missed a cup entirely. Once we are down to five cups, we rerack, and make it into a new triangle. Then again at three. You get one ball each turn. If you get it in you get to throw again until you miss or win.

Redemption is when one of us gets the ball into the last cup.
