Disclaimer: I own nothing from Inazuma Eleven/Go
So this is part of my creative mind of what a normal or extraordinary day is in the schools in the Inazuma Eleven universe. I'm taking requests too. First school is Hakuren (GO). OCs are included too.
Shirosaki's day was going well, which spoke volumes. Normally, there will be something to disrupt the peace of the team during practice, mainly Yukimura's plays which inevitable got someone mad, usually Oujika. And he had to break them up before they got into a fight. There was also Kya, their newest manager who loves to pick fights with just about everyone, especially him for some reason.
But today, everything was different. Yukimura was playing normally like everyone else, a fact that was slightly surprising. But the captain chalked it down to Cassandra talking him into being less serious, something she could only do being his childhood friend. She only did it occasionally and not daily despite the pleading of their teammates. He suspected that it was because she found it amusing and not because she didn't want to upset Yukimura.
Also, Kya was quiet the whole time during morning practice, not picking fights with any one of them like she usually would. Shirosaki did not know if he should be relief or afraid.
And there was Fubuki-kantoku. Shirosaki hate to admit it, but something about their coach made him uneasy ever since he took back his position as coach after the Hakuren vs. Raimon match. Many would think that he was being kind by not kicking him and Seki out of the team but Shirosaki knew better. Fubuki clearly wanted them to be humbled by the team and learn to play real soccer like everyone else, that was the only reason why he kept them there, or so he thought.
Today, their coach was smiling a lot that it was unusual. The kind coach was the smiley kind of person towards his players but Shirosaki could tell that his smile was…brighter than usual. There was the kindness yet firmness that was usually behind it, but there was also the addition of amusement in it today. It made Shirosaki's focus waver whenever Fubuki turned to him that morning.
"Oi captain! You let the ball get past you again!" Yukimura snapped in irritation when Shirosaki failed to catch the blue haired striker's shoot for the fifth time that morning. Despite being less serious that morning, there was a limit of stupidity in practice that Yukimura can take.
"Sorry." Shirosaki mumbled and threw the ball back at him. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught Cassandra glaring at Yukimura and smirked as he felt vindicated. But that feeling only lasted a short while for Fubuki threw him another one of his smiles.
"That's enough practice for today." Fubuki clapped his hands. "We'll gather at the clubhouse after classes."
"Hai!" The team yelled with smirks on their faces.
Shirosaki narrowed his eyes at his team subtly. For some strange reason, he felt that they were plotting something. He glanced at Seki and instantly knew that he was right for the loudmouth forward was strangely subdue that day and every time Cassandra glared at him, he flinched away from her.
Alarm bells went off in his head as he went to his class. The team was up to something and he did not like it.
"You think he suspects something?"
"With the way we were acting, it is obvious he suspects something. Operation 'Birthday present' is a success."
A chuckle sounded. "So what's next?"
"Operation 'Surprise Party'." The speaker smirked playfully.
"So you three will distract him while the rest of the team decorate the clubhouse."
"Whatever." A roll of eyes.
"Leave it to us."
By the time school was over, dread pooled Shirosaki's stomach as he walked to the clubhouse in fear that the team would still be as weird as this morning. As he slowly walked along the corridors of the clubhouse, he was soon met with the sight of Yukimura, Cassandra and Kya in the corridor just outside the meeting room.
"I'm telling you there is no way he will like it!" Kya yelled at the duo who winced.
Cassandra threw her a slight frantic, exasperated look. "Do you have other suggestions? I'd say that this is the best present we can give him. Captain, help me out here!" She called Shirosaki over.
With a sigh, Shirosaki resigned himself to the situation and stood beside Yukimura who felt just as exasperated as he did. "What is it?"
"We are trying to decide of Cassandra's idea of a present for y- "
"For Fubuki-senpai is an ideal one for him." Yukimura cut in frantically, hoping that the captain did not notice Kya's slip up.
Shirosaki threw them a suspicious glare. It was clear that they were up to something but the three of them were standing in a row, blocking his path so he could not go into the meeting room. So instead, he decided to humor them.
"It depends on what type of present it is."
"Throwing him a surprise birthday party and push the cake into his face." Cassandra grinned.
"What!?"
Shirosaki shook his head in disbelief. That was the craziest idea that Cassandra had. No one ever pulls something against their coach and not expect a retaliation of some kind. But Cassandra was a free spirit person who rarely cared about the consequences of her actions, something that was proven when she took up the Fifth Sector's offer to join the soccer team initially without caring about what her family would say as long as she got to play soccer.
"That is the most ridiculous idea I ever heard." He managed to tell her.
"Try changing her mind once she has it set on something." Yukimura sighed.
"Ring head, tell her to do something normal for once!" Kya snapped, ignoring what Yukimura said.
"It is normal!"
"Normal is having a normal birthday party without pushing the cake into a person's face!"
The two girls continue to argue with Yukimura throwing in a comment or two. Finally Shirosaki had enough.
"Bring your argument outside! I'm going to the meeting room!" He roughly shoveled past Kya and Yukimura.
"The rest of the team aren't done with the preparations yet! What are we going to do?" Yukimura whispered harshly at his companions.
"I don't know!" Cassandra huffed, yanking at her hair. "I'm out of ideas."
"That's a first." Yukimura said sarcastically.
"Well, I'm not." Kya muttered.
"What are you going to do?" Cassandra asked cautiously.
"Desperate time calls for desperate measures." Kya muttered with a growing grimace, not answering Cassandra's question. She instantly stormed up to Shirosaki before he could open the door to the meeting room and grabbed him by the collar.
"What-!? Let go of me Kya!" Shirosaki tried to struggle out of her grip. But surprisingly, she had a strong grip despite her petite figure.
"You and I are going to have a talk." She growled.
"Wait! Is this about last night!? You said you were fine with it!"
"I changed my mind." Kya shrugged and pulled him into the storage room beside the meeting room. There was a soft 'click' as the door was locked from the inside.
Yukimura's jaw was open while Cassandra shrugged. "I wouldn't want to be anywhere near them right now. I guess this means that we have to help decorate meeting room now."
"Remind me again why nearly revealing our plans to him in the form of an argument is a good idea?"
"Not my idea, Kya's."
The team was visibly surprise to see them come in. They were in the middle of decorating the meeting room with streamers and balloons. A banner hung on the main wall and was covered by another cloth. Fubuki quickly gestured for them to come in and shut the door behind them. "So? Who's distraction Shirosaki-kun now?"
"Kya." They said simultaneously while shuddering.
"What is she doing to distract him?" Kitaki asked, dreading the answer.
"Don't know, best not to know. But they implied that it has something to do with something that happened last night. Anyone knows what that about?"
Koori let out a yelp of surprise. As he was hanging streamers from the ceiling on a ladder, he nearly lost his balance and fell. The ladder wobbled dangerously.
"Koori-kun, are you alright?" Fubuki asked worriedly as the others hurried to steady the ladder.
"Y-yeah!" He waved his hands. The ladder was soon stable again and Koori shakily got down.
"So what was that all about?" Yukimura raised an eyebrow.
"I-I don't know if I should say this…" But at the pressing look of his teammates, he caved in. Twirling his thumbs, he explained, "I overheard some girls from my class talking with some other girls from Shirosaki's class. They said that Shirosaki has been meeting up with Kya at the restaurant she's working at and…they were having a make out session last night at the back of the café…"
Just about every jaw in the room dropped in shock. Cassandra could only cover her mouth with her hand to prevent anyone from seeing her smile. "Oh my goodness! I was RIGHT!"
"Wait-! What!?" Yukimura turned to her with an incredulous look.
"All those arguments…did you notice that they were becoming less intense since last month?" Cassandra giggled. "And have you noticed that since the beginning, Captain is the one whom Kya picks a fight with most of the time."
"I think you have a point there." Fubuki mused with an equally amused chuckle.
Yukimura sighed and shook his head. He is going to need a lot of aspirin. Dealing with Cassandra and Fubuki together caused him a lot of headaches.
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"
Everyone jumped at Kya's scream. Footsteps could be heard heading their way. Yukimura peaked out of the door and his eyes widened.
"They're coming! Get ready!"
Everyone rushed to discard the tools they used to prepare the party and bundled them under the food table and get into their positions. Cassandra pulled out the cake from the cupboard and lighted up the candles. Seeing that everyone was ready, Fubuki switched the lights off just before the door slammed open as Shirosaki tumbled into the room with Kya hovering above him.
"Surprise!" Everyone cried out as Fubuki flicked the lights on again. Makari and Hokugen yanked on the strings on each side of the banner, pulling down the cloth. The banner read 'Happy Birthday Captain!'.
"What is all this?" Shirosaki asked, stunned.
"Your birthday ring head. Happy surprise birthday." Kya deadpanned, hauling him up.
"We figured that we would plan this surprise birthday party and your present being the team behaving well for one day." Fubuki smiled warmly.
Flabbergast, Shirosaki rubbed his forehead. "You mean to say that your purposely behaved during practice this morning just to make me uneasy? Yeah it's the best birthday present ever!" He threw up his hands as he said that sarcastically.
"Oh, we know. That was the whole point." Cassandra grinned easily.
"Why you-!"
"Call that a bit of revenge for having Fubuki-senpai kicked off and tricking us to work for the Fifth Sector." Yukimura said sternly. Shirosaki had the decency to lower his head in shame.
"Hey, cut him some slack. It's his birthday after all." Kya reminded them.
"Alright. After this day, we had our revenge so we shall not bring up the matter of your works for the Fifth Sector here again." Fubuki smiled at the team with a hint of warning behind it.
"Hai, Fubuki-Kantoku." They replied solemnly.
"Blow the candles! The wax is going to ruin the cake!" Cassandra shoveled the cake under Shirosaki's nose.
"Not a chance." Shirosaki folded his arm firmly in protest.
"Just blow the candles!" Kya snapped.
Shirosaki winced but complied. As soon as he blew out the candles, Cassandra removed them and flashed him a mischievous glint. Realizing what Cassandra was planning based on the argument outside the corridor earlier, he held up his hands in defense.
"No! Don't-!"
Cassandra ignored his pleads and smashed the cake right at his face, smearing cream and cake all over his face. In that instant, everyone got their phones out and took pictures of the comical scene. Shirosaki wiped some of the cake and cream off his face, glaring heatedly at Cassandra.
"Cassandra!" He roared and started chasing her around the meeting room.
"Hah! I told you that your plan was ridiculous!" Kya yelled at her as she ran past her. Cassandra flicked her eyes at her and grinned at Yukimura.
"Get your phones ready!" She abruptly turned and sped towards a surprised Kya with Shirosaki right behind her. Just before she and Kya collided, she sidestepped and extended out her foot. Shirosaki, unable to stop in time, tripped on her foot and tumbled right on top of Kya!
"Oi! If you are chasing girls, don't fall on me!" Kya shrieked from underneath him. In the background, everyone was laughing and snapping blackmail photos.
"Don't deny that you like it." Shirosaki smirked in return.
Kya rolled her eyes at that. "Whatever." Snaking her hand behind his head, she pulled him down for a kiss. However, the kiss soon progressed into a make out session.
"Get a room!" The team kicked them out of the room.
"I got kicked out of my own party." Shirosaki lamented as he and Kya went back to the storeroom.
"Good. That leaves us a lot of time here." Kya smirked as she locked the door.
"Don't expect me to do anything more than kissing." Shirosaki rolled his eyes.
"I know. That's why I'm happy to be here with you."
After getting over the awkwardness of kicking Shirosaki and Kya out, the rest of the team dug into the food.
"It is Shirosaki's birthday and yet we are all partying without him." Fubuki sighed.
"He and Kya had it coming." Cassandra snorted. "Although, it is a shock that they are together."
"Well, I suppose this is an extraordinary day for our club. Hopefully it will go back to normal tomorrow." Fubuki shook his head with a smile.
Yukimura overheard them talk and shuddered. The next time Fubuki and Cassandra join heads together, he had to make sure that he doesn't lose his sanity.
