" I fear he really can't .. Tenma " the two brunettes turned to the source of the words ,, who was none other than Tsurugi " I'm with you about Kirino-san .. he wouldn't do these ... it's not his fault " the ace striker said closing his eyes , and with his usual calm face ,, somehow , his words brought relieve and worry at the same time to the playmaker's heart ,

"what do you mean Tsurugi ? " Tenma said advancing towards his friend , and after a sigh , his friend replied

" .. Endou-kantoku and the others told us what happened when we weren't here ... or if I can be exact .. after we crushed the black hole "

Shindou hesitated , but he couldn't keep silent anymore " .. what are you saying ? ... what makes this connected with Kirino ? "

" it's so connected .. " the blue haired boy looked at his smallest friend , " Tenma .. do you remember when you shot the ball at that hole ? "

" o .. ofcourse "

" .. when that big power hit it .. the black hole shattered ... that hole we were fighting to stop was a mix of power ... a power that was gathered from the nature .. so when it mixed with that strong shoot it only made it blow ... and its power was divided into pieces ... and guess where it went .. " , his friends silently waited for him to continue , when a fourth person shared Tsurugi's talk

" it fell on Raimon " , Shindou and Tenma were more shocked , but the genius asked quickly

" Seto .. where were you when that happened ? " , Midori sighed then replied

" .. I was there during training ... Endou-kanto was busy and couldn't join us ... so when Kirino and the others finished and were gathering their things .. Akane and I already went out ... and that was when a strange black light hit the whole building ... it was so strong that sent us flying in the air ... the last thing we heard was their screams " ,,

hearing that , Shindou's pupils started shaking , " .. you mean ... not only Kirino ? .. " , he asked hesitated ,

" no ... all who were in there too "

" but why ? " Tenma asked " .. why Raimon of all places ? " to what Tsurugi replied in no time

" it's because most of the hole's power was from earth ... our planet has the most powerful nature of all the space .. and because of the strength that was with the ball .. it went to the place that has the most enthusiastic soul for soccer ... I wouldn't say this in other condition .. but ... unfortunately ... it was Raimon .. our soccer club "

" .. impossible .. " ,, Tenma really couldn't believe his ears ,

" but it happened ... and what is more bad that until now .. no one other than Kirino has done anything ... with one kick he overthrew Endou-kantoku and all his friends " the red haired girl commented ,

" .. you remember what his shoot towards us did ... it crushed the whole place behind us .. and I can tell from his way of shooting ... that it's not his strongest ... it's obvious that Kirino-san was effected more than anyone .. since he's the captain and the best of all who were in there ... I'm sure he's the most powerful ... I hate to admit it ... but we're no match to him .. and I won't say them ... only him " the blunette concluded ,,,

' ... Kirino ... ' , the pianist felt so sad for his friends ,, but not like what he felt for Kirino , whom his heart was squeezed for him ,

" we must talk to them " everyone looked at Tenma as he continued " .. we must talk to them to stop this maddness no matter what "

" I appreciate your effort Tenma .. but look at our kantoku ... he tried it but look at the result ... and I think you already tried to " Midori said

" that's right ... he just ignored our words and attacked us .. " Tsurugi reminded " .. the black hole's darkness has eaten his soul completely " they lowered their gazes to the ground ,,,,

" .. I'll advice you only for once ... leave .. " ,, the scene of Kirino's words flashed in Shindou's mind ,,,

if it's true and the darkness swallowed him totally , why would he tell them to go wihout any harm ? ,,,
' no ' he thought , a flashback of his friend smiling at him warmly came to his vision ,,, no ,,, Kirino still cares for them ,, he knew his classmate is still there ,, he must be some where inside and he must find him no matter what ,

" so what are we going to do ? " the captain cut his thoughts asking

" Endou-kantoku said that currently we should rest ... you see .. we can do nothing .. Kirino-san alone was about to destroy us .. if not for Midori-san we were now beside Kantoku and the ohers ... so we better go home for now ... I think our fiends are doing that now ... we really should rest too " ,

' .. rest ? .. ' the prodigy asked thinking ,, how can he rest when his best friend is suffering ? , he was sure he won't be able to sleep

,, it was decided ,,

' Kirino ... just wait for me ... I'm coming ... and I'll defenitely save you from darkness '

Author's note

the new chapie's here hope you like it

Kirihime thank you alot for your kind reviews , I think you're not only the first one to review on that chapter but the only one too XD , I also love you and your stories so much , especially the Maid trilogy and I'm waiting for the upcoming chapter on fire , I feel like Shindou's up to something but can't catch it

so yes I too see it's not coincidence , because Nobunaga is a real person , he's the one who united Japan , well he died with his lover Ranmaru , you can read about him on wiki , Ranmaru's job was to defend Nobunaga but many people said that Nobunaga put him beside himself because he wanted to protect him not to be protected by Ranmaru , because Nobunaga's known with his strength and in his first battle he won with a 200 man against nearly 10000 man , you can even read Kirino's wiki that his name is taken from Mori Ranmaru , and on what Akihiro Hino said about Kirino , and even ( Shin ) in Shindou's name is the same with ( Nobu ) in Nobunaga's name in other Kanji ,,

so , I talked alot again , thanks for reading ^^
