'Thoughts'
"Conversations"
Sudden flashback
The brunet's smirk widened, it almost seemed maniacal. He opened his eyes which were now red with black slits and jumped and stopped the ball without any effort not even using a hissatsu technique.
The sky suddenly became grey and the clouds started moving in a circular motion.
Tenma kicked the ball upwards, it stopped in mid-air and a hurricane surrounded it making the ball become the eye of the hurricane.
The brunet looked at it and jumped up into the storm. He kicked the ball with full force towards Tsurugi and the hurricane followed it leaving a trail of damage.
"Hurricane" he whispered.
"Majin the hand!" they heard a shout before Tenma's shot was stopped.
As the haze of the shot calmed down, they saw a man, in his twenties in front of Tsurugi with the ball held firmly in his hands.
He had brown hair with two pointed edges at the sides and a single bang hanging over his forehead. He wore an orange shirt with a white stripe going around the collar line, and a white jacket with orange stripes going down each of his sleeves. His jacket's collar was raised and it showed off a thick brown stripe on the inside of the collar. With it, he wore dark blue jeans.
He had some trouble stopping the shot as it was seen by the way his legs were slightly embedded in the ground.
"Tenma," he said, pulling his legs out of the ground: "Please calm down. Aki won't be happy when she hears you tried to destroy the soccer club on your first day of school."
"Tch!" Tenma said annoyed.
"Endou-kun, what was...?" Haruna tried to ask but Coach Kidou interrupted her: "Endou, is it him?"
"Yes." He replied looking at Tenma.
He then turned to everyone and said: "I'm sorry about all that. Tenma's not the guy anyone would want as a foe."
He then turned to Tsurugi and said: "So I beg you to not challenge him."
"W...what was that Endou-san?" asked Ichino
"That's something I can't reveal now," he responded
"Tenma, what did we talk about before?" Endou asked the brunet with a stern look on his face.
"That I must not lose control. But it's his fault, he insulted soccer." He replied with rage in his eyes.
Endou's eyes softened as he heard this and he looked at the boy "But you were going to hurt him."
"I don't care. I've lost everything I have. I don't want to lose soccer too. It's the only thing... the only thing I have left. You couldn't possibly understand" the young boy said looking at Tsurugi with a melancholy smile.
"What's going on here?"
They heard a voice and looked up to see a young boy in the Raimon's first team jersey and the captain band on his left arm. He had short, wavy greyish brown hair and brown eyes with a black touch and he was looking at them with such hostility like they had just committed the worst of crimes.
Behind him probably were his teammates since they wore the same jersey he wore. Tenma looked at all of them from the right to the left
The first guy had navy blue hair and black eyes, tanned skin and a strange bandage on his nose.
Next to him was a black-eyed guy that seemed not to contain sclera and had circular glasses over them. His hair maroon and he was very skinny.
The next person had goggles on his forehead and brown eyes. His navy blue hair was raised in a wave-like pattern and he had a tan skin tone.
The next was a tall person. He had dark brown curly hair that was shaved from the sides and his eyes were black. He also had a fair skin colour.
Next, a pink-haired tied into two pigtails and sky-blue eyes he also has fair skin.
In the middle of the previous two stood the captain who was glaring holes at everyone in the field.
Next to the pink-haired stood a big-boned guy, with dark purple hair and violet eyes. He also had slightly tanned skin and he wore goggles on his chin.
The next guy had light blue hair and black eyes. His skin was tan and his hair covered his left eye.
Next, a dark purple-haired. He had central heterochromia, his eyes were both dark red and gold
The next person had dark yellow hair and black eyes. He was tall and had tanned skin. His eyebrows were thick and dark. He had a notable scar through his right eyebrow. And he seemed to lack a nose.
The last person had spiky beige hair, black eyes and he was tall.
They were all glaring at the people on the field.
'Ugh! Who invited them here?' Tenma thought, his eyes twitching annoyed.
"I am Raimon's Jr. High's captain, Shindou Takuto and these are my teammates, The Raimon Eleven." He then looked at the half-destroyed field with wide eyes, the same reaction his teammates had as soon as they realized the field's condition.
"W...what happened here?" he asked running down to meet coach Kidou
"A challenge." The person who replied him was none other than Tsurugi himself.
"What are you here for?" Kudou asked the navy-haired.
"I've been ordered to reform Raimon's soccer club. You guys are getting pitched with the rest of the trash," he said not bothering to reply the wavy-haired captain's question
"What!" Shindou exclaimed.
"Tsurugi, have you not learned anything?" the brunet whispered to him.
Tsurugi continued without paying any attention to the brunet, he would never admit Tenma had defeated him. (A.N: Even though it was obvious) And he would never stop talking cockily.
"Anyways, let me introduce to you the new," he snapped his fingers "Raimon Eleven. They are your replacements."
"Our replacements?" Shindou repeated, surprised: "We are the true Raimon Eleven," he said.
"Yeah. And I've been waiting for you." Tsurugi replied. "Now, let's get the real show started."
"I don't see a reason for us to play against a gang that's just causing trouble. However, the case would be different if you made the proper arrangement to call an official match."
"It seemed you haven't understood your situation here," Tsurugi said interrupting any further thing Shindou would have said.
The blue-haired boy then jumped up and kicked the ball with immense force towards the old soccer club, that was used ten years ago.
'Mmh. Should I stop it?' Tenma questioned himself 'Nah!'
And the striker's shot destroyed the ex-soccer club's door.
"Listen up," he said approaching Shindou: "This is not a request. It's an order."
"How dare you?" Shindou said angrily
"Then shall we start?" Tsurugi said walking away "Captain." He added to mock him.
Skip to the match
"Furukabu-san, please handle the referee duties." Said Shindou.
"Then we'll start the match. Raimon's soccer club versus ehm..." He didn't know the name of the other team so he looked at them confused.
"For the time being, call them Black Knights." A tall man dressed in black from head to toe said. He had long dark maroon hair and periwinkle eyes.
"Err..." Furukawa said looking at the man
"I'm Kuroki. You can consider me their coach. Now, start the match." He said grasping the confusion written on the man's face.
"Okay. We will now begin the match between Raimon's soccer club against the Black Knights! May both sides fight fairly."
"Yes,/Of course," Both captains said at the same time though one more convincing than the other.
They all went to their positions.
'That guy, he insulted Raimon and the team. I won't forgive him' Shindou thought, looking at Tsurugi furiously.
"It's about to start," a voice said.
"Raimon's first-team versus the unknown team, Dark Knights! It seems this will determine who gets the seat for Raimon's soccer club. For those who don't know me, I am the commentator here, Kazuma Ayumu. I am in charge of running all of the commentaries for all Raimon's matches"
"The kick-off will begin soon!"
While all this was happening, Tenma sat down looking at the starting match in an uninterested way.
When they heard the initial whistle, Shindou passed the ball to Minamisawa and started running.
"Let's see what they can do." The violet-haired boy said.
"Raimon makes the first attack."
A guy tried sliding to steal the ball from Shindou, but the game maker jumped avoiding the play and he passed the ball to Minamisawa.
"Shindou makes a perfect centring"
Minamisawa kicked the ball towards the goalkeeper
"Minamisawa makes a direct shoot. Can the goalkeeper Tetsuoda catch it?"
Thinking the ball would enter the net, Minamisawa smirked.
"He blocks it! Tetsuoda firmly catches it!"
"What" Minamisawa exclaimed surprised, looking at the goalkeeper, the ball set firmly in his hands.
The goalkeeper launched the ball up, Tsurugi caught it and passed it to a blonde guy who jumped to receive the pass.
"Tsurugi makes a pass."
The blonde passed it to a turquoise haired boy.
"This is amazing. They're making direct passes in mid-air"
They were able to move past the defence line, it was their chance to score.
"Kizaki takes the ball and is in position to shoot!"
The orange-haired guy scored a goal due to Sangoku not reacting at the right time
The whistle echoed again, indicating a score.
"Goal! The Black Knights take the lead. The keeper Sangoku couldn't even move."
"W...What, they pass the ball to themselves in mid-air" Shindou exclaimed with an incredulous face.
"And got to the goal in the blink of an eye" Kirino completed his sentence.
'A...amazing' Aoi thought, her light blue eyes focused on the match.
"S...sorry I let my guard down" Sangoku exclaimed looking at the ball
"Oh! He let his guard down, he said" the orange-haired guy mocked him walking away.
"These guys are tough," Minamisawa said in annoyance.
"I can't believe they got a point off Sangoku-senpai that quickly," Hayami said fearfully
The whistle blew again and Minamisawa passed the ball to Shindou.
"The match resumes! Raimon goes without the leading point. So now, what will they do?"
Tsurugi stole the ball from Shindou as soon as he saw the chance and moved forward. He passed al the defence line and scored another goal with Death Sword
"You won't get better of me this time" Sangoku exclaimed a flame erupted from the hand he held. He then jumped into the air, he spun four timed and came down to catch the ball.
"Burning Catch" he shouted. Unfortunately for him though, Tsurugi's shot was simply too powerful.
The whistle blew. Another goal. Everyone watched silently at the recent event.
"SANGOKU!" Shouted Kurumada running towards him.
"I have my doubts about this school reputation. I mean come on, this is pathetic," the navy-haired said, smirking.
"What was that just now?" Hamano exclaimed.
"Their movements are beyond what humans can do," said Kirino.
At that sentence, Tenma chuckled but in the silence of the stadium, everyone heard, therefore, turned their gazes to him.
"Oh please. Hahaha. That was a funny one." He said still chuckling.
"What's so funny?" Minamisawa shouted annoyed.
"Oh, sorry senpai. The fact that this match is just utterly pathetic made me lose my composure for a second there," he said staring at the purple-haired striker with a mocking gaze.
Shindou didn't mind him as he shouted: "We haven't lost yet. Get a grip, guys."
His words didn't reflect on what happened later though as the whole team was beaten up to the ground. Each time the Black Knights scoring a goal.

The whistle blew again.
Kudou then stood up and said:
"Matsukaze Tenma"
"Uh, what?!" he said not even looking at the man.
"Put on one of the spare uniforms." He said or more like ordered the brunet
"And tell me why the hell would I want to do that?" he grumbled
"I thought you were a candidate to join the club?" the man answered with a question.
"Nope, I wasn't. You thought wrong." He replied to the man.
"Tenma-kun, this isn't what she would want, you know? She would want you to follow your dreams even if she wasn't here." He said his gaze piercing into the brunet's soul.
"How the fuck do you know about her. Was it that shitty goalkeeper" he said glaring at the man.
"Well, who knows? Switch players." He said raising his hands.
"Taking Minamisawa Atsushi's place is Matsukaze Tenma." He said
"The fuck! I didn't even agree to this." The brunet said
"I don't care," Kudou said walking back to his seat.
I know Tenma curses a lot in this. But there's a reason for that. There's a reason for every of Tenma's attitude.
And he's going to continue cursing like this through the entire story, for reasons that you will be aware of in the further chapters.
It's so cringy having to write the word 'soccer'. Cause I'm used to calling the sport: 'football'. But unfortunately, I have to.
