"Ryuenji Tasuku! Your time is up!"
A voice shouted. "W…Who's there?" Tasuku yelled. "Meet you soon." The voice faded. "Who was that?" Aphrodi asked. "Stupid, we were try to figure that out too! Be alert Aphrodi. It may come again and you might be there target." Hiroto shouted. "I just asked Idiot! And who makes you the boss? Did you co-operate with them that you know I'm there target?" Aphrodi yelled. "I did not! Even a dump person can understand that Aphrodi. You are the smallest here and also the dumbest. They would definitely come after you" Hiroto said in a serious tone. "Oh I see- Hey! That was an insult you… you! Maybe someone else is even dumb than me!" Aphrodi yelled.
"Aphrodi… let me tell you this, it is an old proverb that the one who shouts the most and thinks the least is the dumbest person. And look around. Tasuku, Kazemaru nor I am speaking. I am just telling you what's good or bad, not starting a conversation. You are the only one shouting and yelling besides you are not even understanding the situation" Aphrodi said. "Y…Yes" Aphrodi was embarrassed.
"Duck!" Kazemaru shouted. "Where?" Aphrodi asked. Hiroto sighed. Suddenly a soccer ball was coming towards Aphrodi. Kazemaru pushed him and saved him.
"This is why I said you are the dumbest between us." Hiroto said. "You may be wise amongst others but you are not right now. We are more knowledgeable than you." Tasuku finished.
"How… How!?" Aphrodi cried. "I am always so knowledgeable with all the others then why do I act and feel jerky and dumb while I'm around you!?" Aphrodi had tears in his eyes. "Aphro-" "It's because that's your real self" Kazemaru interrupted Tasuku. "Real self?" Aphrodi asked. "People may be wise from the outside but those who act goofy in front of others show their real selves to others. Right?" Kazemaru smiled softly.
"I don't do it… I mean I'm equal with everyone but still…! I!" Aphrodi was about to cry. "It's unconsciously done. People do it when they are easy with someone. Maybe you feel like you aren't but actually you are Aphrodi" Tasuku explained. "I..I don't know." Aphrodi sighed.
"Maybe you actually feel secure and normal with us" Tasuku asked. "But Ryuenji is younger than me" Aphrodi replied. "He is physically and mentally more mature than you Aphrodi" Hiroto chuckled. "Kazema-" "If you're about to say Kazemaru-kun now look at what he said then I know what he did Aphrodi" Kazemaru cut in.
"How did you know?"
"Secret…"
"Kaze-"
"Call me Ichirouta"
"What?"
"I said to call me Ichirouta, Hiroto same goes for you"
"But why?" Hiroto asked.
"Be…Because now all of us are near and-" "Near?" Aphrodi asked. "Now we-…. No! no! I didn't mean it like that… I meant that we… you all… are teammates so teammates should be! Call them! Not like call or phone call I meant like the speaking… not talking! And not speak is not chatting or gossiping… Calling each other by our names and not.. Oh man what do I do?!" Kazemaru cried.
"I think he's gone mad" Aphrodi chuckled. "I know. He's gone mad like you a while ago, right?" Hiroto smiled. "Yeah like me- hey! Hiroto! I didn't go mad!" Aphrodi yelled. "Yes you did" Hiroto closed his eyes. "Wait what!" Aphrodi was about to kill Hiroto. He clenched Hiroto's neck tightly and didn't let go. Hiroto was having a hard time breathing "Hey wait Aphrodi! Do you want to kill me?!" Hiroto said removing Aphrodi's hand from his neck. "Yes I do!" Aphrodi answered rudely. "Why you-!"
"Now I get it! What you meant by call me Ichirouta. You are getting the hang of us and want to call each other by our real names right?" Tasuku asked. "You understood?" Kazemaru's mouth was wide-opened.
"It was obvious Ichirouta-kun" Tasuku declared.
"Really?"
"Yes it was. Well if I'm to call you by your first name then all of you call me Hiroto and not Kiyama like you do sometimes"
"A…And call me Terumi"
"Terumi?" Tasuku wondered. "Y…Yes that's my first name. A…Afuro Terumi. People call me Aphrodi but I want you all to call me Terumi" Aphrodi hesitated.
"Ok then Terumi-chan" Hiroto teased. "Hey! What's that –chan at the end for? It's used for girls!" Aphrodi yelled. "Don't blame me but Terumi is a name most girls use. It's rare with boys" Hiroto smiled. "Do as you want!" Aphrodi angered.
"I think we should go to Raimon. It's about time Tasuku-kun, Hiroto-kun, T…Terumi-ch-"
"It's Terumi-kun! Not Terumi-chan!" Aphrodi yelled angrily and screamed. "Ok Terumi-kun" Tasuku smiled.
"What's so funny Ryuenji?" Aphrodi asked. "You better call me Tasuku too or I'll call you Terumi-chan" Tasuku smiled softly. "Well then, What's so funny T…Tasuku-kun?"
"Nothing in particular" Tasuku laughed. "Suspicious" Aphrodi groaned. Hiroto stared at them and was deep in thought.
Near the academy
"Hun? Hiroto?" Tasuku stopped and asked. Hiroto didn't answer and kept on walking. "Hiroto-kun!" Tasuku said a bit loudly but Hiroto just went past him. Kazemaru went angrily towards him and grabbed his arm. "Hiroto, what do you think you're doing?" Kazemaru asked a bit intensely. Hiroto stretched his arm so Kazemaru let go. He said nothing. "Hiroto!" Kazemaru yelled angrily. "Nothing" Hiroto said rudely and kept on walking. "What's wrong with him?" Aphrodi asked angrily. "Did I do something?" Tasuku sighed. "No Tasuku. I think something else is the problem" Kazemaru replied. "Maybe-"
"Kazemaru! Ryuenji! And…Aphrodi!?" Endou said energetically. "Yo!" Gao greeted. "Gao-kun!" Tasuku ran towards his mate. "How are you Gao?" Tasuku asked. "I'm fine. And by the way why did you come so early?" Gao asked. "Well… there is a great story behind that too but don't even get me started on that" Tasuku sighed. "Sounds interesting" Gao smiled.
"Why is Aphrodi here?" Endou asked. "Of course to enter in the academy" Aphrodi replied. "Looks like new members would be coming soon" Endou giggled. "I guess other players would join too. I got a call from Suzuno last night and he told me he'll enter the academy too." Aphrodi smiled. "Really? By the way what happened to Zeus Academy?" Endou teased. "I left it!" Aphrodi said. "What happened to Kazemaru?" Endou asked looking at Kazemaru who looked very angry. "Well… you see that.."
In the Classroom
"After the entrance exam we have got many new students! Can you please come in?" The teacher asked. "Please introduce yourselves to everyone"
"Konichiwa! I'm Ryuenji Tasuku! I hope we all can get along. I am not really from this world. I got teleported here but I hope I can enjoy my time with all of you until I go back!" Tasuku smiled and stood on the corner. The whole class started to gossip about what Tasuku said. They nodded.
"I hope you'll enjoy too, Ryuenji – please"
"Ohayo! I'm Suzuno Fuusuke. I'm known as Gazelle. I have no intentions to tell you more about me except for the fact that I'm from Aliea Gakuen's team Diamond Dust and Chaos" Suzuno walked away to the place Tasuku went and whispered something in Tasuku's ear which made him shocked.
"Auh…Thankyou Suzuno-san. May the next please step up?" The teacher smiled softly.
"Yo. I'm Nagumo Haruya. I wish all of you would praise me and accept me as the ruler. I am a former student of Aliea Gakuen as well. I am also known as Burn there. I am the best football player ever known in History so you all must better remember. Bye! And oh! If you don't want to be shred into pieces, call me Nagumo-ue whenever you call me!" Nagumo made everyone in the classroom scared and depressed.
"W…Well then. T…Thankyou Nagumo-u…ue" The teacher said nervously. "Who's up next?"
"Konichiwa. I'm Kiyama Hiroto. I am also from Aliea Gakuen. I am known as Gran formerly. Hope we get along" Hiroto closed his eyes and went away to another corner where there was no one.
"Thankyou Kiyama-kun. Next please"
"Konichiwa! I'm Afuro Terumi! Nice to meet you all! I am from Zeus Academy formerly. And as you all know I was the team captain which lost to Raimon in the finals of FF. I am also known as Aphrodi. But now I am working hard to become a strong player without the aqua of gods. Hope we get along" Aphrodi said calmly, completely different from before.
Tasuku leaned over towards Kazemaru's desk. "Ichirouta-kun I think you were right about Terumi-kun. It looks like his personality is changed completely." Tasuku exclaimed.
"It's psychology. And it's natural with everyone." Kazemaru smiled.
"May the next student come up please?"
"Konichiwa. I'm Fubuki Shirou. I am from Hokkaido. I love to play soccer and I hope we all can be friends. Now I am recruited for the Japanese national team Inazuma Japan with the other new students." Fubuki said kindly and went to the other side.
"Yes sure Fubuki-san. Now can the last student please come up?"
"Hello. I'm Midorikawa Ryuuji. Nice to meet you all. You all most probably must've known me as Reize from Aiea Gakuen's team Gemini Storm. Anyway I hope you all can trust and make friends with me." Midorikawa smiled and walked to the side Suzuno and the others were.
"Now that's the end of the introductions of the students. But come to think of it there are many students from Aliea entering and a student from another dimension. It may be fun. But I think it's strange too" The teacher ended the speech. "Now can all of you sit down on the sits arranged?" The teacher smiled. "Hai!" they chirped and sat down. "All of you take out your textbooks from page 109. Ryuenji-kun, please start the reading"
At evening
*yarn* "Tasuku wasn't it a very long day today?" Gao asked. "Yeah it was Gao-kun. Did you enjoy?" Tasuku asked. "Yeah. I got to make a ton of friends and you know the studies here are one grade behind us, so I already knew most of the stuff, and I got promoted to your grade! Happy?" Gao grinned. "Really!?" Kazemaru said running towards them. "Yes Kazemaru-kun. And starting tomorrow I'm in your grade" Gao couldn't keep his smile from coming out. "Find you guys!" Endou yelled from behind into Kazemaru's ear. Kazemaru trembled and grabbed his ear. "Endou! Wasn't it enough for my mom to pull my ear in the morning? Now you have to come and yell in it badly! I think one of my ear-drum burst!" Kazemaru yelled back. "Sorry Kazemaru, but at least you-""No I didn't get to bear the pain and I won't try harder to overcome it!" Kazemaru yelled. Tasuku giggled a bit but stopped then he giggled again and then he started laughing hardly that tears came out his eyes.
"Ryuenji? What happened?" Endou asked curiously. "Well Endou-kun it's just that seeing you and Ichirouta-kun fight, I got reminded of Gao and myself so I couldn't hold it in" Tasuku wiped his tear. "Oh! Then it means we all are similar to each other very much" Endou exclaimed. Everyone dropped to the floor. "Mamoru, you noticed now!?" Gao cried. "Then you all are ready knew?" Endou asked. "Mamoru-kun" Gao sighed.
"At least we know that Endou is similar to Gao"
"And Kazemaru similar to Tasuku"
Drum and Jack appeared. "Drum!" Gao said happily. "Jack!" Tasuku could not keep his excitement in.
"Drum, Jack…. You came back?" Endou asked. "Yes we did Head-band" Jack teased. "Hey who are you calling Head-band?!" Endou yelled. "You Endou" Kazemaru smiled. "Not you too Kazemaru!" Endou cried. "Anyway, did you guys find-" "Tasuku! Gao! duck down!" Drum cut off Gao's speech and grabbed Tasuku, Jack grabbed Gao. "What happened Drum?" Tasuku managed to speak. "There was a knife… A very dangerous one, heading towards you and Gao. It was not normal!" Drum shivered.
"Yes it was a knife dear children!" From behind the shadows, Garsheild appeared. "W..who are you!?" Endou yelled. "I'm Garsheild. Or in other words, Kageyama's Master!" the man laughed. "Kage..Kageyama!?" Kazemaru and Endou yelled. "Yes and I can see new-comers.
Boys take them hostage!" he ordered. "Don't capture them!" Kazemaru and Endou appeared before them to save them. "Okay then. Servants, kill those two as well!" Garsheild ordered his subordinates. "Yes master Garsheild!" they attacked. Kazemaru and Endou were about to be killed but Drum and Jack blocked them but in turn were captured themselves.
"Drum! Jack!" The four boys shouted. "Leave them alone!" Hiroto and Suzuno came running. "Hey look boss, the Aliea Gakuen Dropouts" One of the man giggled. "Your right. Let's finish this!" Garsheild laughed. "What do you mean by that!" Gao yelled. "Fight us in a match. If you win, take the monsters with you but if we win then these monsters would live in peace" Garsheild's voice dripped with sarcasm. The boys knew that Garsheild meant that he would kill them. Gao gulped. "Gao?" Tasuku said in his heart.
"W…Why do you want to play a soccer match? Right here and now?" Gao's voice was shivering with fear. Tasuku who had never seen Gao like this was surprised and astonished to discover this side of his friend. "You ask why? Well that's if you want to see the monsters alive. Want to play or let them die?" Garsheild asked.
"We'll play but first we would need a team!" Endou demanded. "It's not our headache. Go find some. Come back in 15 minutes or I'll kill them" Garsheild told. "Gao-kun, Tasuku-kun. Let's go!" Kazemaru told. "Yes but the team would have already left." Tasuku said worriedly. "Yes but only Terumi-kun is left. He said he needed to understand a chapter by a teacher. He might still be there. Let's hurry" Hiroto told and ran with the others.
Raimon
"Aphrodi! Terumi-kun!" everyone burst in and started searching. "He's here!" Endou yelled. "Aphrodi! Terumi-kun!" Everyone entered the room. "Guys. What happened?" The teacher asked. "Kazane-Sensei please forgive us but we're in a difficult situation and Terumi needs to go with us" Kazemaru apologized. "Come on Aphrodi! Right now!" Endou dragged Aphrodi and the rest followed. "I still need to prepare for the test tomorrow!" Aphrodi cried.
Towards the field
"How many minutes have passed, Hiroto-kun?" Tasuku asked while still running. "It's been 9 minutes" Hiroto said while looking at his watch, while running. "Already? Now what do we do? We can't take the others. Maybe we ca-" Kazemaru suddenly bumped into someone. "Ouch…" He got up. "Ichirouta-kun?" Yasashii looked up towards the boys. Kazemaru reach out his hand to lift her up."Are you okay?" ."Yes…Th..Thanks. By the way why were you in such a hurry?" Yasashii asked. "We have no time to waste. Come with us and we'll explain" Gao took her hand and ran.
In the field
"Looks like your pals left you" Garsheild laughed. "No they didn't! I'm telling you! They'll come for sure…" Drum gulped. "Even if they do, the time is up. Boys take out your swords." Garsheild ordered. The sword swung. It was about to hit drum's neck. Suddenly, "We have come!" Endou boomed. "Leave them alone!" The heavily panting boys looked towards Garsheild with hatred. "So only one was added? Poor guys! I believed that at-" "Make that 9 players now!" Nagumo and Midorikawa entered. "Minna!" Gao cried.
"Get started already! But there must be 11 players" Garsheild said irritated. "Minna! Sakka Yaroze!" Endou and his team went towards position. "Ma..Mamoru-kun! I'll play as the 11th player or else that'll be against the rules. Please let me" Yasashii asked. "Sure Yasashii but will you be able to play?" Endou asked. "I think that I would come of some help to you. Gao-kun… do you have any ideas?" Yasashii replied. "Yes I do… You know the strength demonstrated by Tasuku and me? We can use that and Hiroto-kun and the others who were in the Aliea Gakuen can transform too. Kazemaru-san and Aphrodi-san also showed the strength, We can use that to win. And Yasashii, come here. I'll tell you something" Gao said something in Yasashii's ear and she nodded.
At the start of the match, Raimon played well but after a while Team Garsheild started to attack. They were horrified and Suzuno, Midorikawa and Tasuku were badly injured.
"Endou-kun! We've come to help!" a voice shouted. "Hun? Your…. Your… Your… Matsukaze Tenma!"
"Thank goodness this chapter finished! I had been working on this for a long time but…" ~Kaza-chan
"But because of your papers she couldn't" ~ Gao
"By the way Kaza-chan.. do you want us killed?" ~ Drum.
"I'd be happy if that happened" ~ Gao
"Gao! When will you acknowledge me? I mean that remember when we were up against Kyoya-" ~ Drum
"No I don't remember!" ~ Gao
"Mikado Gao! I'll eat you until not even your bones are left!" ~ Drum
"Um… Can you guys please go somewhere else and fight? You'll find out next time if you are dead or not but for now the preview" ~ Kaza-chan
PREVIEW
