I do not own Inazuma Eleven.
Enjoy!
"It's you" Endou Mamoru said, shocked, he would have never forget that the boy who made his hands hurt for a week would show up again.
Meanwhile Xene was thinking, why was he meeting the same human being twice? He was over a thousand years old and he's only been to earth twice, he shouldn't be meeting the same person twice, humans live and die in a blink of an eye for him so why was he looking at the same human again?
Could it be, that his fate was interlocked with this human boy and that they would meet again in the future? Could it be, because he was so involved with the Endou Mamoru from his Universe that it somehow left a mark on his soul, meaning that he would keep meeting the boy over and over again?
"Did you come to play soccer too?" Endou said and Xene just had to say.
"Who are you?" He said, since he wasn't supposed to know who the human boy is and Endou looked like, he just realized they had never introduced themselves to one another and looked sheepish.
"You might not remember me but we met over a year ago" Endou said, "My name is Endou Mamoru, you scored on me once in soccer. Your kick was so fast that I didn't even have time to think about defending the goal"
"...I see" Xene said.
"Even now, my eyes still want to witness that your kick, I want to know if I've gotten stronger" Endo said, since Japan wasn't doing so great right now. "So which team are you on?" Since the guy never showed up to Japan selection so it could mean, he was on a different team.
"I'm not on a team" Xene said, well at least a team you never heard of, he added mentally and said. "I just came to watch"
"EH!?" Endou said, this guy wasn't on a team!? "Your not on a team!? But your so good!"
"Thanks and you know what, I was looking for something to occupy my time while I wait for the first match to start" Xene said, "Maybe I should hang out with you, I'll let you experience my kick"
"Really?" Endou said, he couldn't believe it.
"I've got nothing better to do" he said, before his lips twitched up. "It might be fun."
Endoy gave a whoop.
"By the way, my name is Xavier. Xavier Hunter." He said.
Well, let's see where this goes...
Ch 7: The Strange Boy with a ridiculously Powerful Kick.
The members of Inazuma Japan weren't at all surprised to see Endou was back but they were surprised to see the red head trailing behind their goal keeper.
There was just something about him that made it hard to look away.
"Hey, Guys" Endou said, with a smile.
"Urr, guys. Who is that?" Kino Aki said, looking at her fellow girls who equally had looks of confusion on their face's, even Otonashi's, who was the one in charge of collecting data on other team's, looked confused.
Kudou Michiya eyes narrowed, at the new arrival, the air around the boy wasn't normal at all.
"Guys, doesn't he remind of, somebody?" Otonashi said, she swore she had seen a similar face before.
"now that you mentioned it...he does seem familiar..." Natsumi Raimon said.
Meanwhile Xene looked around, he was slightly disappointed to see the team that had been such a big part in his old life look at him, with such cautious eyes when he remembered quiet fondly how well he got along with everyone.
He was also thankful that there didn't seem to be another 'Hiroto' on the team, that would be just weird to see another version of himself, right in front of him.
"Guys, this is Xavier Schiller. The guy who has that powerful kick I was talking to you about" Endou said, only to get blank stares in return.
"A powerful kick?" Utsunomiya Toramaru said, and everyone who was new to the team thought the same.
"Is he the one that you said, had a kick more powerful than Gouenji's?" Kido said, shocking those who weren't there, the conversation he had with Endou almost a year ago was still fresh in his mind.
It was basically Endou saying how he would like to meet that boy again, the boy that made his hands sting and could give Gouenji a run for his money.
"Even more powerful than Gouenji's?" Kazemaru Ichirouta said, before snorting. "I find that hard to believe"
Gounenji eyes narrowed at the red head, wondering if the boy was another player from a different team.
"Well, he agreed to help me practice goalkeeping today" Endou said, "I have a feeling that if I receive is shots, I will get better. Besides, he's not on any teams so it should be fine"
Surprising them all before their eyes narrowed, not believe that for a second.
"So it should be fine, right coach?" Endou said, turning to the coach that was rumored to be cursed.
Kudo eyes met with the strange green eyed boy, before giving his approval.
Endou went to take a bunch of balls from the basket and lined it up perfectly while others watched, wondering why his face looked so familiar, before Endou want to his station.
Endou slapped the side of his face while Xene approached the first ball, making sure there is a good distance away.
All activity on the field seemed to stop as they all went to watch, the so called guy who's kick was more powerful than their best striker.
"I'M READY!" Endou shouted, and boy did this bring back memories for Xene of when he was human.
Xene nodded before approach the first ball at a very human pace, before his foot made first contact.
The ball disappeared.
.
The ball was in the back of the net.
.
All mouths dropped as Endou turned to find the ball had already slipped passed him.
"W-What the heck was that?!" Nobody was sure who said it, as they all looked at the innocent looking ball before going back to the redhead.
"Do you want to do it again?"Xene asked, knowing Endou wouldn't give up.
Xene nodded, and Xene went again, with each ball the same result.
"So fast!" Tsunami Jousuke said.
"I don't think I can see the ball move at all." Otonashi said.
"I can't either" Kudou Fuyuka said, worried.
And she wasn't the only one worried about if this guy turned out to be any enemy, how can you stop a ball that was too fast for you to see?
"ANOTHER!" Endou said, not discouraged at all, making Xene smile as he produced another.
The Earthling had no idea that Xene was holding back a lot, if Xene played against him a little bit seriously, than, this would have been over the moment Xene stepped on the pitch, if his team mates hadn't done it for him, first.
Endou know that he couldn't see the ball so all he could do was swing wildly and hope it made contact somehow.
As expected he missed.
"Darn!" He said, seeing the ball was behind him once more before, but he wasn't going to give up and he said. "Again!"
Xene complied and delivered another one, Endou missed.
"Again!" Endou said and Xene complied and did it again.
"Again-darn!"
"Again-drat!"
"Again-oh, come on!"
Never in their life had anyone thought, Endou would face a person who's balls he couldn't see, this was completely one sided but only a few could tell that as time went on, Endou own body was learning.
His movements were getting better and his reaction time was getting faster even if it was only a little bit, his body saw that it needed to evolve to even hope to catch the ball and that's what it did even though it was hardly noticeable.
"Lunch-time!" Aki and Otonashi yelled together making them all stop.
All the players except for Xene immediately started going inside, it really slammed home how out of place he was here.
"Well, I guess I'll be going" Xene said, saddened that he was no longer part of the group that meant so much to him a life-time ago.
"Xavier!" Endo said, making him stop and turn around. "Will you practice with me tomorrow?"
Making Xene blinked and said. "You want me to come back?" Staring at him like he grow two heads, which everyone seemed to notice except for the boy himself, now that they looked at him, the boy seemed almost emotionless.
Which raised questions about the boy's upbringing which they were sure, they would never get answers to.
"Let's have some fun!" Endou said.
Something flashed in his eyes at the word 'fun', his haunting childhood memories decided it was time to make a comeback and he almost shuddered, he could already see his father smile, looking over him while he was used as a tennis ball because the man felt like it.
A phrase that used to fill him with excitement was now filling him with horror.
"...I'll.. think about it" He said, turning away before anyone could see the fear in his eyes at the mere word of 'fun', before he left and headed back to the hotel, where he was greeted with the utmost respect.
"welcome back Klidax-sama" One maid said, "The containers are in your room as requested" she said, she had no idea why he requested worms or bugs, but she figured he was going to feed his pet spider or something, who was she to question the rich?
Xene, just nodded before he took one of the elevators back to his room.
Already he could hear shouting and he wanted to groan, maybe he should separate those two. But decided to leave it and walked into his room where he saw two containers full of worms and bugs, he made sure any security camera's in the room was modified so if anyone was to look, it would show him fast asleep in his bed, instead of scarfing down things that would make anyone green.
He took one of the containers and opened it up and took a sniff.
It wasn't that bad, at least the hotel know that it couldn't come from just any ground.
He felt like a fish as he chugged it all down, his stomach wasn't used to the lack of quality of the food but it would have to do.
He wasn't looking forward to the meals but he didn't want to starve.
He supposed he should train, because no matter what, if his father saw that he had gotten out of shape than he would be worked so much harder, to the point of being revived from death door.
# Meanwhile with Inazuma Japan#
"I've found it!" Otonashi said, making them all look at her.
"found what?" Kidou Yuuto said, her brother.
"I thought Endou friend looked familiar" Otonashi said, "I can't believe, that I didn't see this before!"
And they all crowded around her laptop with interest, on the screen was a soccer article, but the image was what made them all stop and stare.
It was an image of a 23 year old Hiroto Kira decked out in the official Japan adult Pro league soccer uniform.
"They're almost identical" Hijikata Raiden said, in shock and he wasn't the only one who was shocked too.
"Do you think, their related?" Sakuma Jirou said, before turned to Endou and saying. "Hey, Endou, what was your friends last name?" He asked.
"He said it was 'Schiller'" Endou said.
"Maybe he was adopted like me and Kidou" Otonashi said, "we might be dealing with Hiroto Kira little brother and he might have given you the wrong name, because of obvious reasons"
After all it must be hard, having an older brother who was a famous Pro footballer, the press would be on him in a flash if it got out.
"Either way, Endou needs to be more careful around him" Otonashi said, "we don't know what he wants to gain out of this."
But Endou didn't think his new friend had an ulterior motive, he could feel it in the way he kicks the soccer ball, he was honest about playing with him.
But Endou was unaware of the strange people he would meet.
Xene was soon going to learn that his stay wouldn't be as peaceful as he thought.
Especially when people start noticing an almost identical boy who looked like a childhood version Hiroto Kira.
And scene!
Next chapter, Desarm goes to find out what Xene's been up to and he's stunned by the human boy who immediately offers his hand in friendship. Review/ Fav and follow!
