So Tia is gone, and i can hardly jump on my leg. I've been working with Dame Simbi on Breath control, she says that for me the breath of Akillian is linked to my Emotions that's why it was so powerful when i was mad at D'jok. She says that i need to learn to control my emotions a bit better but for me that's kinda hard. I've never been good with my emotions, whether or not that has something to do with growing up the way i have, i don't know. Oh i almost forgot, Drake stood me up on our date, i called him and he said that he had got back together with his Ex, i was livide but hey it was the best training session we've ever had.
Anyway i got the bandage wrap thing off the day after the Wambas incident, there's just a large bruise on my Shin and it hurts like hell when i accidently knock it. Currently me and the guys are on our way to the changing rooms to get ready for training, when Mice asked
"So Lex, how you doing about the whole Drake thing"
"I'm fine" D'jok then put his arm over my shoulders and said
"Really we know you really liked him" I wrapped my arms around D'jok and Mice before saying
"Who needs a boyfriend when i've got you. My boys" Mice then said
"We aint your boys" D'jok simply said
"Micro" Mice then
"Yeah alright, we're your boys" I then said
"And you always will be" Mice shook me off and said
"Don't get sappy, lex" D'jok just kept his arm around me and i kept mine around him. We're always like this and i don't care what others think. So many people think that we are dating but no way, we've never dated and never will, we don't want to ruin what we've got. Me, mice and D'jok the troublemakers, that who we were in school. Thran and Ahito are good friends of ours as well but you know it started with us three and nothing can ever change the bond we have, the three Amigos. Anyway we just got to the changing rooms, i went one way whilst the boys went the other.
Mei and i don't really talk that much, like i've said before we are complete polar opposites. The only time we really talk is when we have to in training or to let the other know that they are using the bathroom. Sometimes i see the way she looks at me in training after i've used the breath, and all i can see is jealousy. i don't see what Mice sees in her, all i see is a spoilt little girl who cares way too much about her looks and only want to be famous. When we were changed we went to the training room and i had my hair down. As i walked into the training room Arch took one look and then looked back at the screen before saying
"Alex, hair" i sighed and pulled my hair up, i walked over to the guys who were Sniggering as i tied my hair back. The guys were still laughing, they know how much i hate having my hair up, so i punched both of their arms. Arch then said
"Alright everyone in the hollow trainer, Micro-ice you'll play in Tia's position"
Meanwhile on the Obia Moon- Tia's P.O.V.
"We give our daughter Tia permission to play on your team"
"And we're very proud of this Mr Arch" My mother then said
"Actors Tia, Actors. Do you realize that you pretended those people were your parents" my parents were really angry. I then said whilst looking down at the floor
"You would have never given me permission" My father then said
"Of course not. Football isnt an activity worthy of your presence" Then my mother spoke again
"You're an ambassador's daughter Tia, you can never forget that" My head snapped up as i said
"How could i you said it to me everyday since i was born" My father then said
"All right i'm sure you understand our point of view the matter is closed, we won't speak about it again" I then said
"That's funny. That's your job isnt it, you speak every language to people throughout the galaxy but you wont say a word to me. I spoke more with those people, as you put it, than ive spoken with you"
"Tia you're not here to discuss things you're here to obey"
"And please don't keep trying to compare us to these two actors"
"You're right mother, that's far too flattering"
"TIA"
"At least they're passionate about something"
"Tia that's enough" my eyes began watering so i turned around and walked to my room.
I slowly walked towards my bed, i then dove on to it and started to cry into my pillow.
"Calm down sweetheart" Stella sat down next to me and tried to comfort me.
"Calm down"
"Stella you don't understand , i was happy there, i was finally doing it. I absolutely have to return" she then sushed me .
"Whats the matter?" so then pointed over to a statue i have on a table in my room. I went over to it and noticed a small camera in one of the eyes. I then started pulling faces at it.
Alex's P.O.V.
So todays training session we are working on passing and scoring goals. Ahito just kicked the ball back into play against the clones. Thran got the ball and passed it over to micro-ice, Mice ran straight passed a clone and rocket, he was heading towards the goal.
"Micro-ice stop hogging the ball"
"Just have to ask" Mice passed it to me and i passed it to D'jok. Who the stupidly passed it over to Sinead who didn't pass it back. Sinead then lost the ball to clone in a slide tackle. D'jok went over to him and said
"Can't you ever pass to anyone"
"Oly to guys who can score" Mice then got involved
"What you think you scored a goal there" they started to argue as usual but i stepped in before things got worse. I stepped in between D'jok and Sinead and said to D'jok
"Hey that's enough, just walk it off, both of you" i had to push them back slightly, but then Arch said
"Debriefing room in two minutes" the clones around us disappeared and so did the pitch.
Arch didn't waste anytime with the lecture, he started talking the second we were all in the debriefing room.
"I want to remind you that if we lose this against the red tigers it's all over, people out there are waiting for me to fail. Anybody who felt threatened by my return would be thrilled, to see me drop out and i don't want to give them this pleasure. I want to show them that i was right, prove to them that you're capable of being great players. We wont get a second chance and i frankly can't see us winning this match playing the we are but to do that you have to play together not against each other" Ahito then butted it saying
"But sir we Can never win without Tia" Then thran
"That's true she had the breath, we dont" Sinead then said
"And we certainly wont get it either" I then leant back on my elbows saying
"Am i invisible or something" Arch then said
"You'll never get anything that attitude. You have to work hard get get the breath, it's deep inside each of you. Awakening it will demand your most concerted efforts a collective effort. And lets not forget Alex has been working to have better control over the breath" D'jok then said
"Yes but she's still injured, Sir she can't do jumps" i then face planet my hand as Arch then said
"She what"
"Thanks D'jok"
"Sorry" i sat up to speak but Clamp came in yelling
"Eureka!, ive discovered how to get rid of the snow in the stadium"
"I believe clamp just saved you training sessions. Get changed and meet on the roof. Alex we will talk about this later". So we all left and got changed.
15 minutes later we were all stood in the cold listening to clamp.
"Come a little closer. The fields covered with snow now but in a few minutes it'll be a level and dry as it was in the old days.i just have to use the existing meshing from the ore t15 6 flexible couplings and change the radiation frequency" I then heard Ahito say
"I didn't quite get all that"
"Don't worry about i go back to sleep" D'jok then said into my ear
"Do you understand what he just said"
"He's basically going to use electrical waves to clear the field"
"Right". Clamp then pressed a button on the remote thing he was holding. Blue electricity the surged around the stadium. We all took a step back when ice started falling from parts of the stadium. It then stopped right before a bunch of water shot up from the pitch. When it was over the pitch was completely clear. Arch then said
"Right then, go and relax. Don't do anything stupid before the match, Micro-ice i'm talking to you" we all laughed slightly before heading towards the door. But then Arch said
"Alex not you" i stopped and then turned back around. When everyone was inside Arch asked
"Why didn't you tell me that you can't jump"
"It's not that i can't coach, it's just that my leg still hurts when i out pressure on it"
"You still should have told me"
"I know coach, i'm sorry, i just know that you've been stressed since Tia left and about the match"
"All right, go join the others and stay off your leg"
"Yes coach" i started to walk back towards the door, as i opened i saw D'jok and Mice leaning against the wall in the corridor. When Mice saw me he said
"How much trouble are you in"
"WHo says i'm in trouble" D'jok then said
"When are you not in trouble"
"Says my partner in crime. And i'm not in trouble i just have to stay off my leg"
"Alrighty then, come on" we started walking back to their room with me behind them. I then put my hands on Micro-ices shoulders before jumping onto his back. He caught my legs and then said
"Seriously Lex, you're 15"
"Coach says i have to stay off my leg"
"Whatever" he just kept walking.
When we got to th guys room Mice placed me on D'joks bed before sitting on his, he put his headphones on right before D'jok started pacing back and forth whilst saying
"DO you think we can win, you two. Yes, we can win. We have to win or else it's all over. You heard what arch said, this our only chance to do something big. I'm sure i've got it in me, the great destiny i'm dreaming of is meant to happy in football. It can't just stand here, no way" I then said
"Are you finished" Mice then sat up and said
"What's up were you speaking to me" D'jok then said sarcastically
"No no i was talking to the walls" i then said
"Dude i'm sat right here" HE then said
"Hey Micro, did you hear that"
"Hear what D'jok" I picked up the pillow from behind me and then threw it at them saying
"You're jerks" they then threw two pillows back at me.
"Thank you"
Match day- 10 minutes until kick off
We're all changed, in the changing room and the wait is unbearable. The moods not that great either, mice then said
"Whats with this mood we're not going to a funeral" D'jok responded with
"Yes we are ours"
"Relax, it's only a football match afterall"
"It's not a match, it's the match" Simbi then came in with some towles. Thran then said
"Dame simbi, you don't happen to have something for weak legs do you, a cream or something like that, i don't know what happened to me"
"Of course Thran. I'll find something for you" one by one everyone started asking for the same thing. A few minutes laters Arch came back and started to speak
"I selected you out of many because i believe in you, don't forget that, in all of you together give your all, give everything you have, i don't want you to regret a single minute of this match, all right enough talking, the field is waiting for us" we were just about to leave but the to everyone's surprise Rocket spoke up.
"S-sir, can i say something" Mice then said
"Whoa the guys speaks did you know that" i smacked his arm and he shut up as Arch spoke again
"Yes Rocket, what is it"
"Well it's that, i spent several days watching the Red Tigers last few matches over and over and i spotted a weakness"
"Hey now rocket you're not planning to steal my job by any chance are you"
"No of course not sir, you're right"
"Rocket i was joking we're all ears"
"Here it is , a lot of goals are scored against the red Tigers with high kicks to the center of the field their defense stinks when it comes to central headers. So i thought we might be able to use that" Clamp then said
"Arch my dear fellow, i think this young man is ready to steal your job" D'jok then said to Mice
"Not only does he speak, but hes proud of it too, a nit like you" We then headed down to the pitch.
When we got to the steps Sinead said
"Headers or no-Headers we're gonna lose anyway what matters is facetime, who knows another club might want me" D'jok then said
"WHat i like about you sinead is your sense of team spirit" I then said
"Can you two go 5 minutes without arguing" we carried on walking but i heard Mice say
"Don't worry Mei, okay, ill never far from you during the match"
"That's exactly what i'm worried about". One by one we lined up on the transport disk facing off against the red tigers. When we got on the pitch it was really dark. But then one by one the stadium lights came on and it was incredible, the stadium looks amazing and being on the pitch is something beyond anything i could have imagined. Then the coach's pod broke through the ice, it was so cool. Before we got into position me and the boys (Including thran and Ahito) stood in a circle. I then said
"Give em hell" we then fist bumped before they said
"Or go home"
"Let's do this" we then got into our positions. D'jok was in the centre of the pitch with Me and sinead behind him slightly. The Ball went up and D'jok got it the second it came down, he passed it to sinead who avoided a tiger, but then lost it. The tiger passed it along but then Thran interpreted in a side tackle.
"The wings go up the wings" Me now has the ball, and she's doing what Arch said. Rocket then yelled
"In the air Mei, in the Air" she kicked it up towards me but it ended up going to a tiger. The tigers passed it between other players and headed straight for the goal, they then took a shoot. Ahito dived for it but it slipped through his fingers and went into the goal. 1-0 tigers. Game play then resumed, |D'jok got the ball and passed it over to rocket, he went to pass it to me but it was intercepted
"Use more hussel for crying out loud this isn't a friendly match". Thran then got the ball and passed it to Mice
"Yeah that it,exactly, use some muscle" Mice passed the ball over to D'jok. D'jok then whistled grabbing my attention before saying
"You're turn" i nodded before heading up field with him. I was running using the breath, D'jok then passed the ball over to me and i kicked it using everything i had. The ball headed for the goal and yeah you guessed it, it went in. 1 all. But then when the ball was kicked back into play, the tigers got it to our goal seriously quickly. The tiger faked kicking it causing Ahito to dive, with an open goal the red tigers got another goal. 2-1 tigers. Mice then got the ball and headed up pitch only to b stopped by Sinead
"What the hell are you doing"
"Let the pros handle this" Sinead took the ball from Mice and ran straight towards the goal, however when he took the shot it drastically failed and the ball hit the roof. Mice then said
"Great shot pro", just to make things worse literally seconds before half time the tigers managed to score another Goal making it 3-1 tigers.
When we got back into the changing room Arch came down and said
"I can't believe it, it's like you've forgotten absolutely everything clamp and i taught you, all those hours of practice all those combinations repeated again and again. You have to wake up huh, otherwise we might as well kiss the Galactic football cup goodbye right now. But maybe you don't deserve it after all. As for you Sinead, if you keep putting on a one-man show.."
"What are you gonna do huh, take me off the field and replace me with whom"
"How about me"
"Tia"
"You didn't think i'd let you lose without me did you"
"What about your parents"
"If they want me back they can come and get me"
