Chapter 1: Changes

I was still worried about Rocket. He had changed even more since we had returned from the All-Star match on Genesis Stadium. Even Aarch has had his fair share of worry from his nephew. I don't believe that he has called Norata and Kira to explain about the changes in their son. Like I said, I'm worried because there's more tension in the air than ever. Usually Rocket would have talked to me about it and I believe that if the tension doesn't leave the air soon, I'm gonna suffocate!!

Anyway, Aarch woke us all up at the awkward time of... 4:00 am... 'what!! 4:00am!!' I was too tired to express my outrage and everyone seemed to be like that, even hyperactive Micro-Ice. A unanimous yawn erupted from us.

"Why are you all so tired this morning?" Aarch asked us wanting at least an answer.

"We're all so...so...tired this morning, c-coach..." replied our part-time goalkeeper Yukki, Thran and Ahito's ginger-haired cousin. She shared the same room as both Mei and I, and another thing, we got on really well with her. She has a mixture of tomboyish qualities and girlie qualities.

"Anyway into the holo-training for an early morning session before i have an announcement to make." he ordered.

We entered the holo-training slower than the slowest creature in the universe... sweatdrops Professor Clamp, who was also like us, tired, lazily pushed a button on his touch-screen and clones of the Shadows team materialised in the holo-training. We all took up our usual positions on the field (Yukki - goalkeeper; Thran & Mei - defenders, Mark, Rocket & myself - midfielders; D'Jok & Micro-Ice - strikers). Basically Aarch wanted to see if we had improved since the provious GFC final. Although without Aarch realising, Clamp made the clones a lot tougher.

Rocket and I were working our socks off in midfield, forced to sprint back and forth because of the constant booting of the football. Basically it was a power shot battle between Mei and one of the Shadow player clones. I could feel the sweat flowing down my face, almost blinding me. Anyway, Rocket still seemed a little tense compared to how relaxed he usually was in training... I'm not sure whether it's my fault he's like this or not. When I finally recieved the ball from Thran, the super-powered Shadows clone talckled me so hard that i nearly slid off the side of the holographic pitch. I was able to hold on to the edge.

"Coach, stop this training session!! Please I'm slipping!" I practically yelled to get some attention.

Aarch seemed to hear me as the training session disintergated before i felt myself lying on the cold tiled floor. I steadily rose to my feet, my team-mates offering their supportive arms. As soon as I had completely risen, I looked to my right hand side. Rocket remained there as still as a statue, looking into space. 'Have I done something to make him angry?' I thought as he forced his magnificent eyes to avoid my gaze. He had told me I was worring too much, but I was worried for a reason.

"Why were the clones so...um ... violent today?" D'Jok asked our coach, his arm firmly around Mei's curvacious waist.

"I really don't know but..." Aarch began before two other adults (whom I recognised mind you) burst into the room, followed by four teenagers who I recognised.

"Tia..." came a deep voice from the teenage boy with caramel-highlighted chocolate-brown hair which dropped into his emerald eyes.
"Cameron..." I replied in disbelief. "Haruka, Phoenix, Marcquelle... It's you!!" I sprinted towards them, my arms open wide. It was the group hug I had to leave behind because of my biological mother's actions. I knew that the Ambassedors of Akillian weren't my real parent because they told me before I left to join the Snow-kids.

"Nice to see you again Tia!" both Haruka (my blonde-haired amythest-eyed friend) and Phoenix (my dark-haired silver-eyed friend) said in unison.

"Hello!! Tia who are your friends?" asked all the Snow-kids including technical staff in unison.

"Lo siento mis amigos de futbol (I'm sorry my football friends). These are my best friends from secondary school." I replied and pointing to each one in turn I named them "Cameron Flux, Marquelle Russell, Phoenix Ashes and finally Haruka Kaori." I repeated the process the other way around too. "Guys, these are the Snow-kids. Ahito and Yukki our goalies, Thran and Mei our defenders, Mark one of our midfielders, Rocket our other midfielder/captain, D'Jok and Micro-Ice our strikers and last but not least the technical staf of Aarch, Clamp and Simbai."

Cameron held out his hand to the team. He was always stubborn about new friendships and I've known this since primary school. From a young age, Cameron has had misfortune. His mother and him moved here from California and he would obviously be reluctant to starting again. I suppose I was the same when I moved from Barcelona AND moved to Akillian for the first time.

"So... What are you guys all doing here?" I asked, my inner self sweatdropping as I spoke. I suppose that I expected Cameron to answer but what shocked me most is that Marcquelle, shy, quiet Marcquelle, spoke.

"Is it a crime for us to come see a friend who we haven't seen in years? Because if it is, then sebd us to jail 'cause we're breaking the rules!" Not only did I not expect him to answer; I especially didn't expect him to yell. I shrugged at them because I didn't have an answer. Rocket glared at Cameron who returned his glare with the same anger. I could feel the tension between them, suffocating me. If I could read auras I assume that their eye colours would be the smokey outline, combining inbetween them.

I didn't realise that they didn't like each other much because I assumed that they would get along well. But I suppose that I should have known that...

...Everyone changes
