I really want to update my other stories, but I'm a soccer fan and since the World Cup is going on right now, that's all is on my mind… leaving me with a bit of a writer's block so, I'm starting this story and it could help getting the soccer out of my mind! By the ways, the matches and plays are going to be like the soccer anime Inazuma Eleven… so don't be surprised when some magic appears!

Lucy Star was in a mood that could be described as extremely happy and really excited! She was in her first year of middle school in Magnolia Jr. High, and she was just accepted as a manager for the soccer team. She was surprised when she was told by the vice-principle that she was the only who applied to be a manager for the school's soccer team, but then she found out that the soccer team was only founded last year and didn't have all the members it needed… she loves soccer, and she used to play when she was a kid!

But, now that's over, she now only likes soccer for fun, not for competing. That didn't stop her from loving the sport and watching it! She was going to meet the members after school and she can't wait!

She decided that her new goal is helping this school's soccer team to be the best!

Natsu Dragneel is a young boy with a simple mind, which consisted of: fighting, eating, family, friends and most importantly Soccer!

Soccer was his passion, his life, and his love. His dead grandfather, Makarov, was Fiore's number one soccer player. Natsu admires his grandpa for his skill in soccer. So he decided to join the soccer team when he entered junior high, he did join! Except… he was the only one who applied for it and was told he basically is the one who founded the team and he needed to find players fast! It was his second year now, and he couldn't manage to find more than four and including him they were five, so they were in need of six in total… they need to be 11 and actually have a couple of extras for back up. But first things first, they need to complete the team!

At the bright side of this situation they at least have a manager now…

*Riiiiiiiiiiing*

"FINALLY!" shouted a 14 years old boy, pumping a fist up "time for lunch!"

Another 14 years old rolled his eyes at his childish friend, "Flame-brain calm down!" the pink-haired 'flame-brain' glared at his friend and said friend glared back.

Before they could start their daily insult and fist fight, the pink-haired boy brightened as he looked outside the window, and dashed away from the now shocked raven-haired.

"See ya for afterschool practice Gray-teme!" the boy said as he rushed away.

"Watch it baka Natsu!" Gray called out to the dashing pink-haired male. He sighed and went to eat lunch like a normal person would do when it was lunch time, you know instead of going to play soccer; you're wasting your time Natsu…

Said person was dribbling with the soccer ball, in the Sakura fields behind school…

Left, right, left, right and turn then go right spin your back and shoot! He thought as he did the moves, not noticing a pair of fascinated brown eyes watching him play.

Lucy was in her first day of the new middle school, so she didn't really make any new friends, she always was a shy one after the accident but, she heard about the school Sakura fields and was excited to eat her home-made bento. She found the biggest tree, climbed it and sat on the branch, and then she heard the sound of ball being kicked and looked up from her lunch.

There she saw a really cute boy with a concentrated expression as he was dribbling, totally focused on the ball she was fascinated with his moves moving like he was on fire and nothing could stop him.

She was so focused on how he was playing, that she didn't notice that bell rand and it was time for class and that's when she realized she spent one whole hour watching a boy with pink hair playing soccer.

And the thirteen years old girl blushed like a tomato…

After school….

"Heck Yeah! Time for practice!" Natsu cheered as he pumped his fist to the air. His best friend rolled his eyes, "I really don't know why you're so excited about practice when we aren't even a complete team!"

Natsu suddenly stopped and looked at Gray with a serious face creeping out the other boy, "Gray, it doesn't matter if were two or eleven as long as were playing the sport we love with our friends then it's all good!" and he gave out his famous grin to make his point.

Gray's eyes widen and then they go into realization, "you're right for once, Fire-face…"

"What do you mean by that? Huh ice princess!?" Natsu's eye twitched with irritation.

But, before Gray could retort they realized that they are already at the soccer field, and saw the group of three unmotivated players…

"Um guys?" Natsu sweat dropped at the lazy players.

Elfman, the goalie, was playing on his phone sitting in the middle of the field. Alzack, a mid-fielder was playing with his gun. Max, a defender, was just laying on the ground, eyes closed and had a straw in his mouth.

All five of them are second years in middle school; they have different personalities and hobbies but share the same thing… the love for soccer.

"Why aren't you warming up?" Natsu asked angrily.

"What's the point?" Max shrugged his shoulders carelessly.

"HEY-"

"Um excuse me?" Natsu looked to the small voice that interrupted him from his big speech and saw a short blonde girl who was looking at them with a shy smile.

All five boys turned their attention to the blonde who was now looking at the ground from shyness, "can we help you?" Gray asked curiously.

She twirled her pointer fingers together, "um, I'm here because I'm the new manager?" she said but, it sounded more like a question.

Natsu suddenly brightened up, "Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you guys about that!"

"WHAT!" the other four boys shouted scaring the blonde.

"Captain, how can you forget about that!?" Max cried angrily.

"So unmanly!" Elfman shouted.

"So we have a manger?" Alzack asked uncertain.

"Baka~"

"Sorry my bad, but yeah we have a manager! So let's introduce ourselves!" Natsu then turned to the blonde with his known grin, "Yo! My name is Natsu Dragneel, I'm a second year in middle school, and I'm 14! I love soccer, fire, dragons, food, fights and my family! I play anywhere you want on the field but, I usually play forward." Natsu introduced cheerfully.

"I'm Gray Fullbuster, the same age and class as that idiot; I love skating, cold food and drinks, winter, soccer, and ice. I can play both mid-field and forward but, I'm usually a forward." Gray introduced coolly.

"I'm Elfman Strauss, we all are the same age and class. I love my family, being a man, soccer, and manly things. I play as a goal keeper only." Elfman introduced loudly.

"I'm Max Alors; I love sand, soccer and other stuff. I play as defender." Max introduced lazily.

"I'm Alzack Connell; I love western stuff, archery, helping in our ranch, and soccer. I play as mid-fielder." Alzack introduced politely.

Lucy smiled at the introductions, "nice to meet you! My name is Lucy Star, I'm a first year in middle school and I'm 13 years old. I love helping others, learning new stuff, the stars; making my family proud…etto…oh I love soccer too! And um I have lots of hobbies!" she finished with a bow.

She looked up and saw the interest in the faces of the boys. But then they all smile and Natsu swung his arm around her shoulders and grinned…

"Well Lucy, Welcome to Fairy Tail Soccer Club!"

And done! Boom! How was that? I know it's a bit boring at the start but I'll try to make it more interesting as the story goes! I hope you liked it!

Review?

Love you all!
