Fate's Turn

by XaraYunn

Hiroto and Midorikawa grew up under the same roof, but now, they are drifting further apart due to the Aliea fiasco. The highest rank against the lowest rank. Jealousy, insecurity, and pressure make the Gemini Storm captain forget their friendship and build walls around his heart. Will they be nothing but friends? Or will they even continue to be?

A/N: Hello! This is a collab with my friend, and I'm posting it on his behalf and mine. Hope you enjoy our HiroMido! :)

Fate's Turn (HIROMIDO)

-A Naranekami Production-

Chapter 1: Versus

"Everyone, remember. The Aliea meteorite will do everything for us. Those puny mortals don't stand a chance against us immortal gods from the planet Aliea."

Gemini Storm silences themselves to listen to the captain's speech of power.

"Remember to have fun, too."

Everyone gasps.

"FUN? Do you know what they will do to us if they knew we'd play the game our way? Mr. Hitomiko would take away our immortality."

Like a flash of lightning, their uniforms began lighting up, different colors. Red-blue-yellow-green. Red-blue-yellow-green. A holographic image of the master appears right before their very eyes.

"Children, a dawning of a new era is upon us. We do not have time to lay waste to basic necessities like the destruction of the Inazuma Eleven. Remember my program. It must prevail through all things. There is no time for fun and merry-making. You are on a mission for greater glory, both physical, and mental. That is all."

The room is left with a prolonged silence until Midorikawa speaks. "You heard the master. Let's go."

The game begins and time passes as fast as the speed of light. With a finishing blow from Astro Break to Goalkeeper, Endou, Inazuma Eleven goes down and Gemini Storm reigns victorious.

"Endou Mamoru." Midorikawa snickers with the utmost annoyance. "I will remember that name... That name will be known as 'The Idiot Goalkeeper Who Doesn't Know When To Give Up'. Earth has a saying like this, "If you fail, try and try again." Aliea has a saying like this, "But if you keep trying, you will keep failing.""

The gravity of Earth has no effect on the soccer ball that the aliens use. The aliens use a steel, metal alloyed ball which is easy to kick on Aliea, but impossible to catch on Earth. With that, Gemini Storm leaves the field.

A dark room with three lights of different colors - red, white, and blue - lies empty as a tired Midorikawa approaches the door.

"Midorikawa. You must know punishment for your actions.", says the boy with a deep, yet emotional voice, lying in the faint reddish rose light.

"Midorikawa. You deserve banishment. You must experience the crystal emptiness of loneliness in the deepest abysses of Aliea.", says the boy with a high-pitched annoying voice, who lies standing on the pillar under the sky blue light.

"Reize. You deserve forgiveness. It is what our academy aims for. An ultimatum of power that lies deep within ourselves must be unleashed. For that to happen, I believe that true power comes from the heart. Be it a stupid and preposterous solution to the mission, it is a true one, don't you agree?" The boy in the bright white light says these kind words with much grace, yet with much seriousness.

Midorikawa, also known as Alien Reize, leaves the High Council of Aliea to discuss in peace.
