"Why am I... so weak?" Terra was sitting on her bed with her knees tucked under her chin and her head down. It was time for training but she didn't bother going. She seemed awfully discouraged. "I've been playing sakka for nearly as long as Captain and I still can't kick a ball or dribble properly... Sakura-san and the others else learnt so quickly even though it was their first time playing..." With every word, Terra felt tears starting to stream down her face. The tears suddenly flowed down her face like a waterfall. "What's my purpose on this team?" There was a sudden knock on the door that made Terra quickly stared at the door. A figure was behind it, one that was familiar... tall with with spiky hair.

"Terra? Are you here?" asked the voice. She recognized it straight away.

"Ibuki-kun" she mumbled so quietly he couldn't hear. There was silence.

"I'm coming in" he pressed a button on the door then it opened as he stepped in. The door closed behind him; Terra gazed away from him while he went over to her.

"Why are you here?" Ibuki continued to make his way over to her.

"To get you obviously" Terra felt herself blush a bit but she carried on looking away from him.

"Shouldn't you be training? The next match is coming up and you wanted to show Shindou-san your power, right? You're wasting time with me-" Ibuki put his hands on her shoulders; she gazed at him. He looked ticked off.

"I'm going to show Shindou my power and you're going to be there to see it!" He shouted angrily. "You helped me train and looked over me like a coach! You're not just going to abandon me now! I won't let you!" More tears came out as she shook her head.

"I didn't help you... you became stronger by yourself... I couldn't do anything but watch like the useless person I am! Why am I still here? I should just quit the team.

"No!" This time, Ibuki began to shake Terra back and forth with every sentence he spoke. "You helped and supported me! You gave me advice and pointers on being a goalkeeper! You encouraged me to do my best! So why are you suddenly acting like this?"

"Because I'm jealous!" She cried as she looked away again. Ibuki stopped shaking her and stared at her. "Everyone specializes in something then there's me! I can't do anything right! I've been playing sakka longer than you have and I still can't pass or dribble properly. I'm only good in goal and still most of the time I mess up!"

"It's good to make mistakes!" Terra gasped; she faced him. "That's how we evolve and get stronger! We'll help each other and get better, right?" Ibuki gazed right at Terra who was still crying. She nodded.

"Un" She wiped the tears away from her eyes then smiled. Her fists were clenched. "We'll be Inazuma Japan's ultimate defense and show Shindou-san that we don't need his help!"

"Yeah!"

From outside the room, Minori was leaning against the wall and smiled as she heard the conversation.

"Inazuma Japan has a new duo... I look forward to seeing it" She walked off.
