Hey Guys! Sorry for the late update... I've been busy with school and Band, but enough excuses! Here is the next chapter :)
Ren was frustrated. He was stalking around the school, glaring at who ever went near him.
What am I doing? He questioned himself, as he sat down.
I'm acting like a spoiled child…
Ren looked at the large hole near where he sat down. It confused him, why would these people go to such lengths to rule over humans with soccer? A sport people should use for fun, not evil.
"I should go find them." Ren said to himself as he got up; Ren knew that Kazemaru would be worried along with Onee-Chan.
Ren got up and re-traced his steps to find the Raimon team looking sad.
"What's wrong?" He questioned, but everyone shook their heads and continued towards the entrance. The girls started making dinner while everyone else sat in a circle and started talking about what happened. Ren listen intently, and began to wonder why the other school's team wouldn't help them.
Ren just shrugged before walking out the caravan, walking towards the school again; leaving the team to think. He began kicking around a can as he thought to himself; it was making his angry so without knowing it, Ren kicked the can hard.
Bang!
"Oww!"
The can sounded as it hit something along with a cry of pang. Ren looked up startled, seeing three middle-school boys… and they were not from this school.
"Hey Brat! What do you think you are doing!" the boy, who was hit, shouted at Ren.
"Sorry… but your big head was in the way." Ren said, not sorry at all.
"Grrr… My name is Genda Fuusuke , that is Marui Sasuke and Sakurai Katsuya. What's yours kid?" The older boy questioned.
The name sounded very familiar to Ren, but he just shrugged off the feeling.
"The name is…"
"Ren!"
The boy in question turned around to see Kazemaru running up to him.
"Ren?" the three boys questioned as they looked at the blue-eyed child, who stared back.
"What do mean Kazemaru?" Sakurai questioned to tealette. The questioned boy looked at them startled.
"What are you guys doing here?" Kazemaru asked the trio. Genda held up his Kendo case.
"The kendo club is training here until the school is fixed. They have one of the best programs here… Now what did you mean by Ren?" Genda questioned Kazemaru, startling him and confusing Ren.
"What do you mean monkey-breath? I'm Ren." The blue-eyed boy answered. Kazemaru pulled Marui close and whispered into his ear before grabbing Ren and running off before anyone could question them.
"Ichirouta… why does no one believe that my name is Ren?" the younger of the two boys asked when they slowed to a walk.
"I don't know…" He responded after a few minutes. Ren pursed his lips before running ahead of Kazemaru.
"Wait up Ren!" the Tealette shouted after the younger boy and chased after him.
Some how that turned into Tag and the others on the team some how joined in. After playing for an hour, Ren went to sleep (Such a child) and Genda with his friends turned up; Kazemaru explained what had happened… to the best of his abilities.
"I see… so you think these aliens may have done that to him?" Sakurai questioned quietly, startling Marui and earning a nod from the team.
They sat for a while thinking, they sat till it got dark and Ren woke up; he stared at them for a few minutes before getting up and nudged Kazemaru.
"Ne… Ichirouta….. I'm hungry." He told the older boy.
"Oh, okay Ren. One minute." He replied before said bye to the Kendo club members as they left. Kazemaru was going to make something for Ren, but was interrupted as…
Epsilon arrived.
"Seriously! They couldn't wait till I got food!?" Ren shouted and fell to his knees dramatically.
Manyuuji's soccer team refused Epsilon and paid dearly as the aliens destroyed their school. They accepted the challenge, but… as Desarm said, they were defeated in six minutes. Epsilon was going to destroy the school, but Endou stood up to them and challenged them. Stupid thing to do with only ten people… until Haruna mentioned that Kagure could fight with them.
"Kogure!" The entire team shouted in shock. They tried to talk her out of it and she begged the coach. Ren could only pity the poor boy as he panicked.
"I could play to you know…" Ren said, but was ignore when the coach agreed to Haruna's request.
Kogure was getting cold feet and Haruna was encouraging him, but he was still scared.
"Come on Kogure… you can't be scared forever." Ren said to the boy. Kogure looked at him.
"What do you know!" He growled at the blue-eyed boy; Ren sighed.
"I was also abandoned by my parents; I was hated by other children, but when I met my friends at Sun Garden… I wanted to protect them. Don't you feel the same way about your friends here?" Ren asked the boy. Kogure jumped in shock; contemplating what Ren said.
"Kogure… I believe in you." Haruna said to the boy, making him agree to help.
He was put in as a defender, and he continued to panic -as Ren saw it- Ren continued to think.
"Will he be okay?" Ren said out loud and was ignored again.
Desarm revealed that they weren't really trying to destroy Manyuuji junior high, but Raimon (it kind of confused Ren) and he said that since he beat Manyuuji in six minutes, he was going to beat Raimon in three.
"He is really underestimating Raimon…" Ren muttered and the managers agreed with him.
As they watched the match Ren noted that they were doing well, but making goals… they weren't doing well in that category. Raimon's strikers were sealed off…
Wait a minute… Ren thought. He started thinking…
"Was Ryu-er-Someoka the only striker on your team?" He asked the managers.
"Eh? No… Gouenji was one, but he… left." Aki answered.
"I see…" Ren muttered, going back to his thoughts. For some reason he kept thinking about Kazemaru and what he told Ren about his boyfriend…
"Was he cool?" Ren questioned, Aki absently gave him a nod -since she was paying attention to the game.
No Way! Ichirouta is dating Gouenji! Ren thought, he was in shock.
"Ren-se-er-Ren? Is something wrong?" Haruna stumbled as she almost called him, Ren-Senpai.
"I'm okay!" He said quickly as his face warmed up significantly and… he was feeling angry.
He watched the game again, catching Touko's and Kabeyama's double defense and Fubuki's change.
Fubuki used Eternal Blizzard, but it was blocked by Desarm. Epsilon began their counter attack.. One of the players using another familiar hissatsu; Raimon fought hard… well except for Kogure.
"Kogure! Help out! Stop running!" I shouted, along with the managers (They were nicer).
Time was running out -Ren was feeling anxious- He notices Desarm look up at a figure (How long has that person been up there? And who are they?) before he announced that it was almost three minutes. He kick the ball, sending Fubuki flying…
"Shirou!" Ren shouted before noticing the small blue-haired boy… "Kogure! Move!"
Kogure starts running, but he wouldn't be able to dodge it… till he tripped, spun and the ball was caught between his legs…
When we looked up, we noticed Epsilon had disappeared. Ignoring that fact, Haruna and Endou ran to congratulate Kogure; Ren walked up to the coach.
"Onee-Chan… I thought I saw Hiroto." He told her. The coach's eyes widened for a minute.
"You probably imagined it.." She said, before she looked over… noticing that Manyuuji's team fell in a hole.
"Ah! Are you guys okay!" Ren shouted as he ran to help the team out of the hole.
They began listening to the Manyuuji's coach (He just seemed to appear…) Ren noticed that both Fubuki's and Kazemaru's auras seemed to get heavier, especially when the said that they needed more power.
Haruna went to find Kogure while everyone went back to the Caravan. Ren laid down on one of the seats contemplating. He should have looked for Kogure, since he would probably had a better understanding… Ren shook his head before thinking of something else. He saw a flash of blue, making him think of Kazemaru. That's when the first-years walked in…
"Hey… who is Gouenji?" Ren asked them, startling them.
"Gouenji-Senpai… he was-is- Raimon's ace striker, but he had to leave… maybe we could find a picture." Kurimatsu said as he began to rummage through bags.
"Ah ha!" He shouted as he pulled out a small album. "Now let me see… here we go."
Kurimatsu showed Ren a picture of a boy with spiky platinum blond hair… he was cool.
"How cool…was he strong?" Ren asked, earning a nod from the first-years before they went to settle in for the night.
"Was he… was he dating Ichirouta?" Ren asked, his cheeks burning at the question. The first-years fell off their seats.
"No! Kazemaru-Senpai was dating R… uh… uh… Masamune-senpai!" They shouted, confusing the blue-eyed boy. He felt that they were lying… but also telling the truth.
"Okay… well good night." He said before falling asleep.
Coach decided that they were going back to Inazuma Town to train; they tried to find Kogure with no luck. On the way they kept talking about him… without realizing he was in the back by Kabyama (Who looked really uncomfortable).
"Uh…" Ren was saying, but was ignored… then Kabeyama got their attention, making everyone laugh when they realized that he was there.
Finished :) Sorry for the late update, but to make up for that I will post another chapter today.
