The game started anew. It was now Team Karasuno's ball. Hinata, who was bothered by the booing and the negative comments around the field, kicked the ball really hard; it felt like it was a spike for Volleyball. He was observing the curve of the soccer ball, when he heard Kageyama screamed:
"Run idiot!" All the defense players of Team Karasuno ran to the center line, joining Hinata. The midfielders were all running to get the ball. Hinata looked at his seniors, and with a confident satisfaction from his teammates, he chased after the ball. Coach Ukai, from the sidelines could see that Hinata's speed of run wasn't that bad. It was actually quicker than some of the other team members.
"I think I read somewhere that short players run speedy fast." Coach Ukai commented under his breath. He chuckled to himself, while thinking of a plan to beat the other team.
The soccer ball went back and forth between the two teams. Nobody scored for at least 10 minutes. Finally, a boot from a Predator's defense made the ball go up in the air. Kageyama visualized the soccerball as a volleyball, and was about to use his arms to set for a spike. He was in motion to spike, when Tanaka used his shaved head to butt the soccerball in front of him.
"HEY! That was definitely mine!" Kageyama argued.
"What are you talking about? You would've made a foul in soccer." Tanaka answered in a creepy tone. Hinata jogged towards those two to break up the fight.
"Guys! It's not the time to argue." They both turned their heads to Hinata and ordered:
"RUN!" as they pointed towards the ball. Hinata muttered under his breath:
"Man, I was just gonna help!" But the thing is, he was still bothered by the negative atmosphere after Team Predator's goal, so he ran as he yelled:
"BRING IT OOOOOON!" For some reason, that made Team Karasuno wake up and started playing in high spirit. Hinata made sure nobody touched him as he ran with the ball to the opponent's net.
"Someone stop him!" Furuya R. yelled. Oota, a defense tried catching up to Hinata. But for some reason, Hinata seemed 'untouchable', like the air surrounding him was like suspense and frustration balled up together. When Oota got close enough, he actually saw Hinata's eyes closed. Huh? It's just surprisingly how Hinata hadn't bumped his head anywhere yet. Kageyama caught up to Oota and tried to mix up Oota's direction, but as they got closer to Predator's goalie, the stopper Saionji started running towards Hinata, Kageyama, was busy dealing with Oota, yelled out:
"Score it now!" Hinata kicked the ball really hard, and scored on the left top corner of the net. Coach Ukai and the players all celebrated their first goal!
"Alright Hinata!" Hinata couldn't hear anything as his eyes were still closed.
"HINATAA!" Bop! Hinata was down on the grass near the net's pole, finally his eyes opened and was rubbing his head. Coach Ukai ran to the field, asking:
"Hinata!? Hinata? Are you okay?"
"hhmmmmm…..mm…" Hinata mumbled.
"What? You know what? We're gonna bench you. You got to treat that injury…" Coach Ukai decided on his own as he dripped water over Hinata.
"NOOOO! I'm alright! I'm alright!" Hinata jumped up full of energy. But everyone could see that he had a big red bump in the middle of his forehead.
"Are you sure?" Coach Ukai said with concern.
"Yes! I'm sure. I'm ready!" Coach Ukai took a time out for 10 minutes. His "plan" was suggesting to the players to play like a volleyball game.
"You've got skills to beat them. Show them what you are made of by beating them in your own way." Beep beeeep! The whistle blew for time off.
The game resumed and surprisingly within the 20 minutes, Karasuno Team was beating Team Predators. Tanaka Ryunnosuke, a left midfielder tried to think this game as a volleyball game as Coach Ukai suggested, and used his left spike ability. But instead of his arms, he used his legs to kick the soccerball in a way that only he can do. He passed it to Hisashi Kinoshita, the right midfielder who ran with the ball until the Sweeper Akira Kageura targeted him. He quickly passed the ball to Kazuhito Narita, who booted the ball into the goalie's net. There were also blocks from Tsukishima Kei when the other team came swooping by. In a way, it helped the goalie Yamaguchi to save the soccerball and boot it in a way that looked like a floater ball. The other team and the audience were in shock. Hinata took the ball to home run!
In the end, the score was 5 to 4 for Team Karasuno. The advisor of Team Predators was speechless and the coach was frustrated with the sudden change in Team Karasuno. Game was over around 5:30PM. and the Team Karasuno won their first sport game.
Author's note: Heyy! Yeah! I know I kinda cut this one short I think. But really, there's just so many characters that I think for the future, if I didn't mention in my summary, I'll only focus on those characters… no outsiders. If there are outsiders, I will mention them as anonymous players. I think that would be easier. I hope you enjoyed it!
