"Boys!"

Coach Kudou made everyone line up. "Yes coach?" Kazemaru asked. "Where are Endou, Mikado, Kiyama and Ryuenji?" Coach Kudou asked. "They ran towards the campus Coach Kudou" Fudou complained.

"Um… Coach Kudou I think they would be coming… back" Yasashii said kindly. "And how do you know?" Fudou snapped. "They… are coming back… look" Yasashii pointed towards the four. "Boys! Come back here! I have something to tell you!" Kudou yelled. His speech was not delicate with them. "Yes Coach Kudou!" they came back and were lined up.

"I wanted to tell you that we won't practice for 3 months. That's all. All you boys continue with your studies" Kudou was about to walk away. "3 MONTHS!" All of them were shocked. "But Coach, FFI is in 3 months! How can we sit idle?" Kidou asked. "Do as your told Kidou or I'll boot you off!"

"But what about Ryuenji and Mikado? They don't have anywhere to go or study" Endou asked. "Raimon is asking for new admissions" Kudou took off. "What does he mean by that ?" Kazemaru wondered. "Ichirouta-kun, I think he meant that they should go to the campus" Yasashii said kindly to Kazemaru. "Yes Yamamoto-san! I think that is right but…" Gouenji looked at the two new-comers.

"Do you guys want to join?" Toramaru asked. "Yeah sure but we still need to go back and how?" Gao asked.

"Leave that to us Gao!" Jack and Drum appeared in their full forms."Drum! Jack!" Tasuku exclaimed with excitement.

"How are you going to help? Do you have…." Gao paused and looked at the team. "Auh? Guys? What happened?" Gao asked. "Is that… their full form!" the whole team gasped. "Yes it is. But why are you shocked?" Gao forgot that he was in another dimension. "Gao! Have you forgotten!" Tasuku asked.

"Endou and Kazemaru, do you think we are toys NOW?" Drum leant over them. "N…No" the players shook their heads quickly, tight lipped.

"So what would you do?" Tasuku asked. "We would go back to dragon world and find a source to go back. You stay here for the time being with Gao. Understood?" Drum replied. "Auh.. sure why not!" Tasuku cherished the idea.

"Yeah that is a good idea. Ryuenji , Gao tomorrow we are going to take you to the entrance ceremony, k?" Endou suggested. "That is good! Okay we'll go tomorrow" Tasuku and Gao replied. "Cool. They are finally getting along like true teammates" Jack thought.

"Don't you have to have an admission first?" Gao asked. "Not in Raimon. You have to go to the ceremony and then enter your name… It is good system" Fubuki replied. "It sure is! Better than Aibo Academy of course." Tasuku grunted. "Aibo Academy…?" Fudou murmured.

Next day

"Ichirouta-kun!" Yawazaka called. "Yes Mom?"

"Please wake up Tasuku-kun"

"Why? Let him sleep. He is not going to any school either… I'm the one stuck with school and no soccer practice" Kazemaru grunted.

"Ichirouta-kun! Have you forgotten? Today is Tasuku-kun's entrance ceremony!"

"Hmm… YEAH! I totally forgot" Kazemaru ran off to wake up Tasuku.

In Kazemaru's room

"Tasuku-kun! Wake up. You'll be late" With this Kazemaru went out. Tasuku was very sleepy and he thought to himself that maybe he shouldn't have joined the academy. Tasuku went back to sleep.

Downstairs

"Ichirouta-kun! Where is Tasuku-kun?" Yawazaka asked. "I woke him up but he went back to sleep" Kazemaru said generously. "Oh really? You didn't wake him up properly that's all. I am going now and don't you dare grab the chicken" Yawazaka smiled and went to wake up Tasuku.

Upstairs

Yawazaka knocked on the door. "May I come in?" she said as she opened the door.

"Tasuku-kun. Please wake up. You need to go to school right?"

"Hmm… just a little more sleep"

"You can't stay a lazy man forever now. Can you?"

"Yes your right but I'm sleepy"

"Really? What would Hitomiko-chan say when she finds out that you kept on sleeping?" Yawazaka laid down beside Tasuku and closed her eyes.

"Hitomiko-chan? She would not even know now. Like how she didn't know what would happen if she saved me and sacrificed herself" Tasuku's eyes were filled with tears with anguish flowing inside him. "Do you think that she is happy?"

"What do you mean?"

"Is she happy right now?"

"She is not even in this world then how come I know?"

"Maybe she isn't"

"What do you mean by maybe?"

"You think she isn't alive right?"

"Yes, she isn't because she died while trying to protect me."

"Maybe you think that way Tasuku-kun but in reality she is present in all of your memories and thoughts. She is present in yours and my memories even if they are spiritually."

Yawazaka kindly spoke. She turned towards Tasuku who had been moved and motivated by the talk.

"Your right, Maybe…" Tasuku smiled and cried with soft tears. Yawazaka hugged him. She was sad for Tasuku but thought not to say something unnecessary to make him even more depressed. "Now I think you should get up" Yawazaka wiped away Tasuku's tears. "You know. You and Mrs. Mikado remind me of mom." Tasuku smiled.

"Of course we would!" Yawazaka grinned.

Downstairs

"Hurry up!" Yawazaka shouted. "If you get Tasuku-kun late for the ceremony than Ichirouta-kun, you would only be in spirits!" "Ivf fying fo feaf af fasf fas fi fam! ( I' trying to eat as fast as I can!)" Kazemaru spoke with his mouth full. Tasuku let out a little chuckle. "Kazemaru Ichirouta-kun! If you are not going to finish it up in 20 seconds then I would throw you out of the house!" Yawazaka held Kazemaru's ear and pulled it tightly. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" Kazemaru screamed.

"It's okay. I think I sho-" Tasuku looked at the clock and screamed. "What happened Tasuku-onii-chan?" Nozomi asked. "It is only 5o'clock." Tasuku became dark. "What! Mom?" Kazemaru looked at her with thin eyes. "What? Everyone knows you should go early when you go to a new school." Yawazaka tried to cover up for herself. "No matter. You have finished your food so hurry up you two and go" Yawazaka pushed them to the front door and locked the door behind.

Near Raimon

"I'm so sorry Tasuku-kun. Mom is always like this" Kazemaru apologized. "No need for it Kazemaru. It's okay. I actually had a lot of fun." Tasuku smiled. Kazemaru looked at his face with interest and it seemed as though Kazemaru was taking a liking towards him. "Auh… Tasuku-kun?" Kazemaru hesitated. "Yes Kazemaru?" Tasuku politely said. "If it's okay then you can call me Ichirouta." Kazemaru didn't look in the eye while saying this. "Auh… Well… Yes sure Ichirouta!" Tasuku closed his eyes and smiled brightly. Kazemaru looked at Tasuku with fascination.

"There is something I want to tell you Tasuku. You see Mom an-" " Ohayo (morning) Tasuku-kun! Kazemaru-kun!" Hiroto came running towards them. "Konichiwa (hello) Hiroto-kun." Kazemaru greeted. "Ohayo Gozaimasu (good morning) Hiroto-kun!" Tasuku expressed.

" What's up?" Hiroto asked. "Nothing if you ask" Kazemaru said teasingly. "Hey!" Hiroto snapped. "What's wrong HE-ROW-TOE (Hiroto)" Kazemaru thinned his eyes and teased Hiroto. Tasuku just smiled and looked at his teammates. He was having fun and he thought that maybe he was always from this dimension because of the way they got along.

"Hiroto-kun. You look extra cheery this morning." Tasuku asked. "You think so" Hiroto jumped on the other two and smiled with his eyes closed. "Yeah. Something is definitely wrong" Kazemaru agreed.

"Come on! I was happy because I got into the team!" Hiroto replied. "Oh so that's so. Anyways…." Kazemaru stopped. "What happened?" Tasuku and Hiroto asked.

"Why are you wearing Raimon's uniform?" Kazemaru continued. "Because I'm joining silly!" Hiroto grinned. "What? You too? Weren't you an Aliea Gakuen's student?" Kazemaru asked. "It was BEFORE. Now's now!" Hiroto replied. "Okay" Kazemaru grunted.

"Anyways. Tasuku-kun. Kazemaru-kun. Why are you here so early?" Hiroto asked them. "We should be asking you the same thing Hiroto-kun" Tasuku replied. "Hehe. I was so excited that I just couldn't wait so I came" Hiroto grinned. "Hiroto" Kazemaru said with a smile and a bubble of sweat. "Enough about me and tell me what are you doing here so early?" Hiroto asked. "Kazemaru's mom got the time wrong and after we finished our breakfast and got ready I looked at the clock and…. ( ^^") When we asked her she said that because it's the first day so we should go early. We were about to say no but she pushed us out of the house and locked the door. That's our story" Tasuku sighed. "At least my side was better" Hiroto teased. "Why yo-" "Tasuku-kun! Hiroto-kun! Kazemaru-kun! Konichiwa" Aphrodi came running. "And there's another" Kazemaru smiled.

"Konichiwa Afuro-kun!" Tasuku exclaimed. "Konichiwa Aphrodi" Kazemaru greeted. "Konichiwa" Hiroto grinned. "Just… wait…" Aphrodi panted heavily. "Have you been running all the way here?" Hiroto asked. "Yeah because I knew that you would be here!" Aphrodi said making the rest confused. "What do you mean?" Hiroto asked ,confused. "I still want to settle the score from that match!" Aphrodi yelled. "But I didn't injure you!" Hiroto screamed. "But you are from that cursed academy!" Aphrodi yelled. "Yeah but…" "No buts Mr.!"

"Um.. Ichirouta-kun? The only thing they are going are yelling and screaming" Tasuku sighed. "There is a complicated rivalry with them. No one understands" Kazemaru sighed. "Were they both in Raimon Eleven?" Tasuku asked.

"Hiroto was not but Aphrodi…"

"But Aphrodi?"

"He was in Raimon for a little time but got injured during a match"

"How?"

"Well his team was in the FF but there was a villain, even now, Kagayama Reiji. Kageyama brainwashed them into cheating. They used a water called 'Aqua of gods' to win but they didn't and victory was ours. Later when we were up against Aliea, he came and asked to join. Endou readily accepted and he joined the team but after few matches in one match he got brutally injured by Suzuno and Nagumo's team. i think this is the cause of their rivalry"

"But Suzuno-san and Nagumo-san both are in the team so why doesn't he attack them?"

"Maybe because Hiroto-kun was the commander of the students and his team? Or because the main head was his father?"

"Hiroto-kun's father was the head of Aliea!? But he said that he didn't…." Tasuku screamed.

"Hm.. I know. He went to the orphanage and there the person who ran the orphanage or the head of Aliea Gakuen made him his supposed son because his own son, Kira Hiroto, died while he was studying soccer abroad."

"Kira Hiroto? And if this guy was running an orphanage then he was doing a good thing right? But then why did he burden the children there and create Aliea? I mean if he's good then why did he go to the wrong side?"

"Tasuku-kun. I guess you have figured out by now that something's up, right? Judging by the fact, Endou has already told Mikado-kun everything. So let me tell you that too. Hiroto was named after Kira-san. Kira Hiroto was the younger brother of Kira Hitomiko. Our previous coach. Kira Seijirou wanted revenge for his son's death so he used the Aliea Meteor. He used it on all the kids of the orphanage. Hiroto being one of them. After Raimon defeated the Genesis, Kira was sent to jail. Hiroto cried and exclaimed that he would wait until the end of time if it means to see him again. I wonder, what Hiroto-kun has gone through. And you too Tasuku-kun. Just the fact of losing something very precious to me, tears me up. And I…. I'm so sorry Tasuku-kun! I didn't mean to make you sad!" Kazemaru apologized when he saw Tasuku's eyes getting blurry.

"No please tell me. Like Gao said. I can't stay in the past forever. I need to move on! I need to! So please tell me what you were saying. Please continue!" Tasuku wiped his tears.

"If you say so"

"Hmm. I'm positively sure!"

"When I think about not being able to see my mother I get upset and cry. I can't even imagine how much pain you are going through."

"It's okay. When I see you, Nozomi-chan and Mrs. Kazemaru I feel like I have my family. Same is the case with Gao, his mom and sister."

"That's good to hear. Even about Nozomi. To tell the truth, when Nozomi is around I feel annoyed and sometimes I wish I could throw her out of the window but when I think that during a disaster Nozomi is de… dea… dead, I just can't hold myself! I don't know why. When she teases me I simply think that why doesn't she just die! But when I think, Nozomi is dead I tear up"

"I know why. It's because you are the eldest. If the eldest sibling has to lose one of his or her younger siblings, they can't even bear the pain. I myself was the same. I used to have a younger sister, Utsukushi. Sometime when she annoyed me I wanted her to die but when in the disaster I saw her collapsing under the building I wanted to die along. It was the worst day of my life! After that my Mom was hit by a big block. She was bleeding and was on the verge of dying but even though she could protect herself, and live! She went towards me and saved me! It was beyond my limit. I thought it was just a bad dream but when the ground shock again, I knew this was reality. I ran aimlessly for help. In the end I became unconscious and ran towards the mountains. Over there I met Jack"

"Tasuku… I didn't kno-"

"It's okay Ichirouta-kun"

The two looked at each other. Kazemaru trying to know what was on Tasuku's mind while Tasuku trying to see what Kazemaru thought. "God knows!" Aphrodi kicked the ball towards Hiroto. "Ryuusei Blade! V2!" Hiroto pushed the ball back. "Guys! Calm down!" Kazemaru yelled. "But he!" Aphrodi and Hiroto pointed towards each other. Kazemaru also got into the act and the three started arguing.

Tasuku came up with an idea to stop them. He activated future force and equipped Dragon Blade Drago Brave. The other three stopped their quarreling and looked at Tasuku with amazement. "What the-" Aphrodi exclaimed. "There is more to it guys" Tasuku snickered. "A…Are you serious?" Hiroto became afraid.

Tasuku then took out his Gargantua Punisher. He activated it "Gargantuaa! Punisheeeerrrrrrrrrrr!" he yelled. "No!" The others screamed. All three fainted

After a while they woke up and examined Tasuku's cards. "So please tell us how-"

"Ryuenji Tasuku! Your time is up!"

"Exciting…. Tasuku finally is dead! The same fate as his parents I see" ~ Kaza-chan

"No I'm not! And why do you keep on targeting me!" ~ Tasuku

"Because you keep on targeting my laptop! If you stop then maybe I can stop toooo!" ~Kaza-chan

"Can you both please stop this? And Kaza-chan! I don't have much screen time!" ~Gao

"Don't worry Gao. Next chapter you and Endou are the main emphasis" ~ Kaza-chan

"Cool!" ~ Endou and Gao

"Any way. Jack! The preview please!" ~ Kaza-chan
