Hi Minna-san! Kerui_Ninja here with my first story! I have nothing better to do other that read fanfictions and watch anime so I decided why not write my own! This story takes place during Seirin's first year of opening. I will try to update this story either every other day or every 3-5 days since all I have is free time. And I'm hoping to get each chapter between 5,000 and 10,000 words after this first one since I loooove reading longer stories. I would appreciate constructive criticism and flames will be ignored. Thank you and I hope you enjoy the story!
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA, KUROKO NO BASUKE, INAZUMA ELEVEN, OR AREA NO KISHI! They belong to their respective owners. I am just borrowing them for the story I wish to write. The only thing I own are my cuddly Squishables and my crazy cat.
AN/: Sorry if this chapter is a little random As the story advances, it should fill out more with details as the plot continues to grow.
"KAGOME-SAMA! WE LOVE YOU!"
That was all that could be heard through the halls of Seirin High. The owner of the name Kagome, was a 5'2" black haired blue eyed beauty. Not only was she beautiful, but she was smart and the captain of Seirin's Girls' Soccer team. Her fit body was easily out running the boys following her. Kagome turned a corner sharply and went inside the gym before any of her followers *ahem* stalkers could follow. She sighed as she heard her fan club run by before sliding to the ground.
"Fan club again huh Kagome-chan?" A light voice spoke up
Looking up Kagome saw Riko Aida, The coach of the boys' basketball team.
"Hai. I can't seem to get rid of them. Thanks." She grunted as Riko helped her up. "How is training going?"
Kiyoshi smiled goofily "It's going great! We're going to win the Inter-High Championship!" Kagome's eyes widened at the determination in his voice.
"Really?" She looked around at the small team as they all nodded their heads. "I sure could use your determination with my girls. They're depressed since we're two members short of being able to compete. Coach Iwaki and I are trying to get the committee to let us play even with members missing. How are you guys so motivated?"
Riko smirked "If they don't win they have to confess their feelings to the person they like…naked."
"PFFFFFT HAHAHAHAHA! OH MY… SERIOUSLY?! That's absolute GOLD!" Kagome held her sides from laughing too hard. "I really do hope you guys win but know that if you don't, I WILL record your confessions on camera." She smirked evilly at the basketball team which gulped in return.
"I think that that's a great idea Kagome-chan." Riko smiled
Hyuuga turned to his teammates "Let's go win the championship! We have too much riding on this to lose!" The guys continued their practice more heated and motivated than ever.
The girls high fived each other at their team work. "So the soccer team is in a slump huh." Riko asked while writing down info on her chart.
Kagome sighed "Yeah. I'm trying my best to keep them optimistic about our chances to play but…"
"Nothing is working right?" Kagome nodded.
"I'll find a way to bring them together. I swear on it." Kagome turned and left the gym.
A few moments later the door opened back up to reveal Kagome again.
"That was a cool exit right?! It would've been cooler if I had a jacket and flipped it over my shoulder. Should I try it again? Oi Hyuuga! Let me use your jacket to - EEEP!" A basketball hit the door where Kagome's head just was.
"URUSAI! There's no reason for you to redo your exit!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Seirin's Girls FC*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A group of 8 girls gathered in the locker room after practice. None of them said a word as they sat in silence. Thoughts of not being able to play soccer against other schools weighed heavy on their hearts. Tears of frustration formed in their eyes at the thought of all their efforts to recruit new members and practice were in vain. Suddenly the door was flung open to reveal their captain Kagome with a huge smile on her face.
"I have some news for you all!" The girls looked at her in confusion.
"We can play! We convinced the Soccer Committee to let us play with 9 players!"
Anyone within a hundred meters of the girls locker rooms could hear the happy screams and laughter of the soccer club. Inside the room you could see the girls soccer team jumping in joy and hugging each other. Those frustrated tears from earlier are now tears of happiness.
After their celebration was over, Kagome was the center of attention. "Hurry and get dressed, then meet Coach Iwaki and I in the gym. The basketball team should be finished by then."
"Yes Captain!"
A few minutes later in the gym, the soccer club met in the gym with their captain and coach standing next to a flip white board. The girls gathered in a semi-circle around the board. When they were settled Coach Iwaki spoke.
"As Kagome told you already, we managed to convince the committee to let us play with only 9 members." Iwaki looked around the group that held excitement in their eyes. "The downside to this is that we will still be playing other teams with the full number of members and if we can make it past the preliminaries then we must to have a full team or we're out." The girls gasped at the newfound information.
Kagome continued where he left off. "This means that we will only have nine players on the field compared to the usual eleven."
"Kagome-chan! How can we play with two less players than other teams?" Sango, Kagome's best friend from childhood, asked worriedly.
The young captain sighed. "It may not seem like a lot but the absence of two players on the field is huge. Not only do we not have enough players on the field, we don't have any substitutes. That means we don't have the luxury of switching out players if they get hurt or tired. We're incredibly lucky that we got the conditions that we did. The only reason they are letting us play as we are is because we are a new school. We have to work twice as hard to make up for the lack of players! This means we must be twice as fast as the other teams to fill the gaps! It won't be easy but if you want to play then that's the only choice!"
"Yes Captain!" The girls yelled in unison.
Iwaki smiled at their enthusiasm. "Our first game will be against Kirisaki Daichi in two weeks."
One girls spoke up. "Seriously!? They finished 5th overall last year!"
"I know but that is the way they set up the matches. This will be our line up for the match." Iwaki flipped the board to show the positions of the player on the field shaped like a tree.
"Kaede will be our Goalkeeper." Kaede Kiyama was the cousin of the captain Kagome. She was 5'4" tall with long black hair and brown eyes. She looked similar to Kagome except that her eyes were bigger. She may be small but she was one of the best goalies during middle school.
"Kukan Kanna, Kaze Kagura, Kirino Raina, and Nanobana Kinako will be our defenders." Kanna was a small girl at only 4'11" tall and was easy to miss. She has white hair with two white flowers on both sides of her hair. Her eyes were such a deep brown that they appeared black.
Kagura was the cousin of Kanna and they couldn't look more different. She stood at 5'3" with short black hair pulled into a pony tail. Her piercing red eyes would leave her opponents frozen in fear long enough for her to steal the ball.
Kirino stood at 5'3" and has pink hair tied into two pigtails and bright sky blue eyes. A kind girl whose personality changes when she stands on the field.
Kinako has long brown hair, brown eyes and her cheeks often get compared to mochi. She is kind and carefree but is actually very serious and understanding.
"Our midfielders are Ichikawa Sango, Terada Shiori and Mishima Nana."
Sango was a beauty standing at 5'5". She has long brown hair that she usually keeps in a ponytail and light brown eyes. A tough player that isn't afraid to get dirty when needed.
Shiori could be confused for Kanna's sister because of her white/silver hair. Her eyes are a deep purple and her skin was very dark for a native Japanese girl. She is a quiet girl but you shouldn't underestimate her.
Nana has brown shoulder length hair that is tied at the back. Her eyes are the same color brown as her hair. A genius midfielder known for her tricks, Nana was one of the top midfielders during middle school.
"Finally our Forward will be your captain Kagome." Iwaki finished.
Sango looked at the board skeptically. "Kagome is going to be the sole forward? Isn't that a little risky?"
Iwaki sighed "Yes its risky but we have no other choice. Usually there are two or three forwards and four or five midfielders but we're two members short. The plan is when we are on the offence; Nana-chan will switch to a forward position. On the defensive side, Kagome will need to stay in the forward position to try and get the ball as close to the goal as possible. The key to this set up is the synchronization between Nana-chan and Kagome-chan and the defenders. Tomorrow we will start on building up your endurance since you'll be running around more than the normal player."
Kagome smiled and held her hand out. "We can do this you guys! Now who's with me!"
The girls all shared smiles with each other. "We are captain!" They put their hands on top of Kagomes'.
