Normal P.O.V.
''Goenji-kun.'' Coach Kira Hitomiko said, while she turned towards Goenji.
Her eyes stood strict. Goenji frowned his eye brows.
''I'll need you to leave the team.'' She said.
Goenji's eyes widened. Endou looked surprised too. Chloë looked up too.
''W-What did she just say?'' Kurimatsu asked shocked, while he turned towards Megane and Kabeyama. ''Something about leaving?''
He turned his glare back to his coach.
''W-What's the meaning of this?'' Haruna asked at Aki.
''I-I don't know.'' Aki replied to her.
Goenji's eyes widened again when he finally realized the words. He turned around.
''W-Wait a second, Goenji!'' Endou shouted at him. ''What's this about, Coach?''
Endou turned towards her.
''Why does Goenji have to leave?'' He asked.
''Yeah, Coach!'' Kazemaru agreed. ''Goenji is Raimon's ace striker. Without him, we won't have a chance!''
''Is it because he made those misses in the match today?'' Domon asked.
Endou looked surprised at him. Then, he turned his glare back at the coach.
''Is that it, Coach?'' He asked. ''Is that why you want him to leave?''
''Explain yourself!'' Kazemaru shouted.
Coach Hitomiko closed her eyes.
''My mission is to build the strongest team on Earth.'' She said.
She opened her eyes again.
''That team doesn't need Goenji-kun.'' She stated. ''That's all.''
Everybody looked shocked. Chloë still didn't say a word. Her eyes were totally widened, she was trembling and she held her fists in front of her mouth.
''But that doesn't explain why..'' Endou started to say to the coach, but he stopped when he was Goenji walking away.
Everybody glared at Goenji.
''Goenji!'' Endou shouted.
Endou growled and started to run after him.
''Endou-kun!'' Aki shouted.
Endou didn't hear it and ran further. He saw Goenji on a staircase. He stopped on top of it.
''Goenji!'' He shouted again. ''Goenji, you… are you really leaving?''
Endou bald his fists.
'' Are you really going to leave like that?'' He asked. ''After losing to them…''
It stayed silent for a while. Goenji had still his back turned at Endou. His eyes were closed.
''Aren't you upset?'' Endou shouted out of total frustration, while he closed his eyes and clenched his fists harder. ''After they tore apart our school and did that to our friends…!''
It stayed silent again.
''Goenji!'' Endou shouted again, desperately trying to reach out to him.
''Sorry, Endou.'' Goenji finally spoke, still not moving.
Then, he turned around his head.
''I can't fight with you.'' He said.
Endou looked shocked.
''Goenji…'' He said.
They just stare at each other. Then, Endou noticed something and he looked surprised. Goenji's eyes were getting watery. Goenji turned his face away from Endou, while he closed his eyes. Little drops of his tears were visible in the air. Endou looked surprised again. Then, Goenji started to walk away from him.
''Goenji…'' Endou said.
He clenched his fist out of frustration, while he had a hard time. Then, he smiled again.
''Make sure… you come back!'' He shouted.
Goenji walked further. Endou watched him walking away. Then, he turned around to the others.
''Did you just let him go?'' Kazemaru shouted.
''I can't stop him.'' Endou said.
''So, he's really gone now…'' Natsumi said.
Chloë was trembling on her feet. Her eyes watered too much and tears streamed down her cheeks.
''G-Goenji…'' She whispered sad.
Kidou turned around at her.
''Of course… this must be terrible for you…'' He said.
''He's … gone….'' She said with a teary voice.
She was stammering and she trembled heavy on her feet.
''Chloë…'' Aki said compassionate.
Chloë finally realized that he wasn't coming back.
''GOENJI!'' She shouted on the top of her voice, as she started sprinting into the direction Endou came from. Far away, she saw him walking. She quickly ran down the staircase and walked down the road.
''Goenji, STOP!'' She shouted at the top of her voice again.
Goenji's eyes widened as he turned around. He saw Chloë coming closer. She stopped in front of him.
''Please, I beg you. Don't leave!'' Chloë said in tears.
''Chloë…'' Goenji said, full of emotions.
Then, Chloë noticed he had been crying to.
''Goenji… you've… cried.'' She stated.
He turned his face away.
''It doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm leaving. I can't stay.'' He said.
''But why not?'' Chloë asked, out of frustration. ''I have the right on an explanation!''
''I can't tell you.'' Goenji said.
Chloë's eyes widened.
''I don't want you to leave.'' Chloë said soft.
Goenji looked at her.
''I know. But you have to face the truth.'' He said.
Chloë started trembling again.
''I don't want to face the truth.'' She said with a teary voice.
Goenji smiled and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
''You'll be fine. I know you. You're a strong person.'' He said. ''But Chloë, we can't be together. It won't work. I'm not here with you.''
Chloë's eyes widened to the fullest.
''W-What did you say?'' She asked shocked.
''I said that I'm breaking up with you.'' Goenji repeated. ''Not because I don't love you anymore, but because it's better.''
''No…'' Chloë whispered. ''You can't mean this…''
''I'm so sorry.'' Goenji said.
He turned around and walked away from her.
''G-Goenji…?'' Chloë whispered.
''Goenji?'' She said, now on a louder tone.
Goenji kept walking in front of her and Chloë watched his back.
''He's really leaving…'' She stated.
She started to cry even more.
''GOENJI!'' She shouted on the top of her voice.
Chloë's P.O.V.
-Time skip. Beginning Episode 47. On the boat-
Endou was standing on the boat along with the other team players. He was watching over the sea. Rumors were spreading that a flame striker was seen on Okinawa Island. His team was now on it's way to search for Goenji. Coach Hitomiko was already on the island.
''Goenji…'' Endou said soft.
Tachimukai stood beside him.
''Coach went ahead of us to look for him, right?'' He asked Endou.
Natsumi appeared too. She was holding an umbrella to protect her from the sun.
''That's what she said, but I haven't received a call from her yet.'' She said.
Kidou appeared too. He held his arms crossed. Tachimukai got excited.
''Once we meet Goenji-san, I'd like to try catching his Fire Tornado!'' He said with a smile.
''Yeah?'' Endou asked with a smile too. ''But you won't be able to stop his shoot that easily.''
Aki sat on a chair and joined the conversation.
''Do you really think it's Goenji-kun?'' She asked.
Domon sat beside her. He closed his eyes with a smile.
''I'd like to believe it is. That means we can meet him again.'' He said content.
Rika and Ichinose were sitting on chairs too. Rika was blushing and clenched her hands.
''The sparkling sun and the blue, blue sea.'' She said passionate.
She pokes Ichinose, who sweatdropped with an uncomfortable grin. Heart appeared around Rika.
''It's like this place is giving us it's blessing, doesn't it, Darling?'' She asked.
Kogure ran on the deck.
'Kogure-kun?'' Haruna asked surprised, who was also on the deck.
''Ushishishishi.'' Kogure grinned, while he hid behind Haruna.
''What? What happened?'' Haruna asked surprised.
''Just look at this!'' An angry Touko shouted.
There was drawn on her face with a black marker.
''There I was resting on the bench and this is what he does to me!'' She shouted.
''Ushishishishi.'' Kogure grinned further.
''Kogure-kun!'' Haruna shouted like a mother, while she bend forward.
Kogure flinched for a bit and started to run away, while he still grinned.
''Matte!'' Touko shouted. ''Hey, Kogure!''
''Oh, that boy…'' Haruna said.
I was standing by the railing and watched over the sea. I sighed. Ever since Goenji left and broke up with me, I haven't been the same. I missed him so much and I was really depressed for a moment. But when I heard that he might be seen on Okinawa Island, it gave me a little bit hope again. I wished I could see him soon.
''The next stop this ship will be anchoring at is Agatou island.'' I heard a female voice saying through the intercom. ''Thank you for riding with us.''
The island looked beautiful, but I knew this wasn't the island Goenji would be on. I sighed. Let me find him soon.
Normal P.O.V.
-Time skip. Beginning Episode 51-52. On the soccer field-
The Raimon members were practicing peacefully on the soccer field of Oumihara Junior High. Endou just mastered his Fist of Justice and everybody was happy for him. Suddenly, a black soccer ball dropped from the sky, causing a huge explosion and a lot of smoke.
''That's…'' Ichinose started.
The smoke pulled away and we looked into they red glowing eyes of a familiar soccer team.
''Epsilon!'' Endou finished Ichinose's sentence.
''We have powered up to become Epsilon Remastered.'' Desarm said.
''Epsilon Remastered?'' Endou repeated.
''We challenge Raimon to battle.'' Desarm said with an evil smirk.
His teammates stood behind him. They all had that weird, red glow in their eyes. The Raimon members looked shocked by the words of Desarm.
''Did Genesis order you to?'' Kidou asked Desarm.
''No, they have not.'' A teammate of Epsilon said. ''It is the will of Desarm-sama and of us, Epsilon Remastered.''
The Raimon members looked determined at Epsilon.
''I want to taste them once more…'' Desarm said.
Endou looked surprised.
''The prickling tension and the thrill that flares through me as two sides compete at full ability to the near breaking point.'' He said.
Chloë looked shocked at them. She was totally scared of them.
''When I feel that excitement surge through my trembling body, I will crush you.'' Desarm continued.
He clenched his fist.
''What other reason to fight is there?'' He asked.
The Raimon members looked shocked and stood besides coach Hitomiko, who looked strict in front of her.
''As if we'd agree to it just to suit your needs!'' Domon shouted.
''If you refuse us, we will destroy one or two of the schools around this area.'' A team member of Epsilon said.
The whole Raimon team looked shocked with widened eyes. Coach Hitomiko frowned.
''Unless we beat them, we will never be able to win against Aliea's strongest team, The Genesis.'' She said.
Desarm grinned evil. Endou gritted his teeth. Chloë looked scared and hid her face behind her face.
''It's okay, Chloë.'' Haruna tried to comfort her.
Normally, Goenji would be there to sooth her, but now, she even felt more frustrated, because he wasn't there.
''It's gonna be fine.'' Aki tried too.
Then, the teams went to their bench and got prepared for the game. In the mean time, they heard an announcer announcing the match through an intercom at the whole island. Soon, a giant crowd was coming and got devoted over the stands. In the crowd, a big guy came walking along with his siblings. Behind him walked a guy with an orange hoodie, which he had pulled up over his head. His face wasn't clearly visible. Only his mouth could be seen.
''Don't cause any trouble for the people around you, you hear.'' The big guy told his siblings.
''Okay!'' They shouted back, while they ran past him.
The hoodie guy stopped and watched over the field, observing the players of Raimon. His eyes widened when he stopped Chloë. She was standing on a midfielders position with a determined face. You could clearly see that she was ready to fight. The guy turned his gaze down and turned around. He started to walk away.
''Hold it.'' The big guy told him.
The guy stopped.
''No one will notice you in a crowd this big.'' The big guy continued. ''Besides, you're interested, aren't you? Just watching it isn't gonna cause trouble for anybody.''
In the mean time, Endou smacked his left fist in his right hand and looked determined in front of him. In the other goalpost stood a grinning Desarm. Then, a whistle sounded and Epsilon took the kick-off. The big guy and the hooded guy were sitting on the stands along with the siblings. The hooded guy's glare was focused on the field. Epsilon dribbled fast forward.
''You're not getting past me!'' Rika shouted, while she jumped in front of a player.
The player quickly passed a ball towards his teammate, who passed him back and they easily dodged Rika, who was left shocked behind. Ichinose and Touko were running up forward now.
''Their dribbling and passing have gotten faster.'' Ichinose stated.
A team player from Epsilon performed a Hissatsu Technique, which hindered Ichinose and Touko.
''Even their Hissatsu Techniques!'' Ichinose said.
Chloë quickly ran up and tried to steal the ball, but she was easily dodged, which left her confused behind.
''What?'' She shouted.
Then, a shot towards Endou's goal was made. Three players run up.
''Gaia Break!'' They shouted, while they performed their Hissatsu Technique.
The ball whizzed towards Endou's goal. You could easily see that technique was powered up too. Endou performed his ultimate Hissatsu Technique.
''Fist of Justice!'' He shouted, while he punched his fist against the ball.
He blocked the ball easily. Everybody's eyes widened. Eve the eyes from the big and the hooded guy. The audience started clapping. Ichinose and Kidou gave each other a content nod.
''It can't be…'' A team player of Epsilon said. ''He stopped it so flawlessly…''
Chloë smiled bright.
''Nice one, Endou!'' She said.
Desarm grinned.
''A very interesting technique.'' He said.
The big guy looked impressed.
''That Endou is just like I'd heard…'' He said. ''No, even more than that!''
The hooded guy just kept staring at the field. His face was a bit more visible and his onyx eyes were revealed. Endou looked at his hand palm.
''This recoil…'' He said. ''It's just what I expected from an ultimate technique. Just as long as I have this, it won't just be Epsilon. I can stop Hiroto… No, even Genesis!''
''Wow…'' Haruna said happy. ''Captain is amazing!''
''Just how strong is he going to keep getting?'' Natsumi asked with a bright smile.
''Endou-kun…'' Aki said fascinated.
''There's no mistake.'' Megane stated. ''It's the strongest goalkeeper technique there ever was!''
Everybody looked happy, except for Tachimukai.
''What is this I'm feeling?'' He asked himself.
He glared at Endou.
''Endou-san…'' He whispered.
Ichinose and Domon ran over the field.
''The rest of us can't lose to Endou.'' Domon said with a determined smile.
''Yeah!'' Ichinose shouted.
Epsilon tried to get up with the ball, but every time they did, Raimon stopped their attacks.
''Volcano Cut!'' Domon shouted.
''Flame Dance!'' Ichinose yelled.
''Senpuujin!'' Kogure shrieked.
You could see that Epsilon wasn't the only one who evolved their powers.
''Rose Splash!'' Rika shouted, while she kicked the ball towards Desarm's goal.
''Worm Hole.'' Desarm said, while he performed his Hissatsu.
He stopped Rika's ball flawless. Fubuki gritted his teeth. He was the only one who got a point from Epsilon earlier.
''You!'' Desarm shouted at Fubuki.
Fubuki's eyes widened.
''I want you to shoot.'' Desarm told Fubuki.
He kicked the ball towards him.
''Don't let him get to you, Fubuki!'' Kidou told Fubuki.
Fubuki turned his glare towards him.
''You just have to play the way you want to.'' Kidou said.
''I know.'' Fubuki answered.
Fubuki headed up and his eyes started to glow orange, which meant that Atsuya was taking over his body.
''It's what I intended to do from the start!'' He said, with a strange voice, which belonged to Atsuya.
''Fubuki!'' Chloë shouted worried at him.
Kidou looked shocked.
''Fubuki!'' Endou shouted too.
Haruna and Aki looked shocked too.
''Why?'' Aki asked.
Fubuki kept running and a player doomed up in front of him. Fubuki got easily past him and ran further. Natsumi looked worried. She turned her gaze towards coach Hitomiko, who was following every movement on the field. She remembered the time Fubuki got in the hospital.
''I know that you've been agonizing over the two personalities of you and your brother.'' Endou said, more to himself.
He gritted his teeth and bald his fists.
''But the only person who can decide for you is yourself.'' He continued.
Every team member of Raimon ran up too, to follow Fubuki. They wanted to support him. Fubuki reached the goal.
''Eternal Blizzard!'' He shouted, while he kicked the ball with some immense power.
The big guy and the hooded guy kept their glare on him.
''Incredible, isn't he?'' The big guy told the hooded guy. ''That's Raimon's current ace striker, Fubuki Shirou.''
The ball whizzed towards the goal.
''It seems I get to enjoy myself!'' Desarm shouted. ''Drill Smasher!''
He had a hard time blocking Fubuki's shot, but he managed to stop it. Fubuki gritted his teeth out of frustration.
''What was that?'' Desarm asked calmly at the frustrated Fubuki.
Fubuki looked shocked for a moment. He turned around his head.
''One more time!'' He shouted, still in his Atsuya form. ''Pass me the ball!''
He ran back. Chloë looked worried at him when he past her.
''Fubuki… watch out.'' She said.
The hooded guy watched Fubuki too.
''You seem interested in him.'' The big guy said to him.
Fubuki performed Eternal Blizzard again.
''Drill Smasher!'' Desarm shouted again, while he smiled evil.
He blocked Eternal Blizzard again.
''So that's it.'' Desarm said.
Fubuki dribbled up once again. He was determined to score. He wanted to be perfect, otherwise there was no use for him to be on Raimon. He wasn't wanted for Fubuki, so he had to be wanted as Atsuya. He performed another Eternal Blizzard.
''Worm Hole.'' Desarm said.
He stopped Fubuki's shot easily. Fubuki tried it again but also that action failed. Desarm catched it easily with one hand. Everybody looked shocked. Even the big and hooded guy on the stands.
''That… can't be…'' Fubuki said shocked.
''I was looking forward to this moment, and this is all you have to show me?'' Desarm asked Fubuki.
He threw the ball away.
''I have no need of you anymore.'' He said.
Fubuki's orange eye fully widened and he looked totally shocked. A dark aura surrounded him.
''No need…'' He muttered.
He's not needed as Fubuki and not needed as Atsuya. He kept thinking there was no point for him being here
''What am I!'' He shouted out of total frustration.
Something snapped inside of him and he fell backwards.
''Fubuki!'' Endou shouted, while he ran out of his goal.
All the other ran towards him too, while they called his name.
''Fubuki!'' Chloë shouted too, while she kneeled down beside him.
Endou kneeled down too and shook his shoulder.
''Fubuki!'' Endou said firmly.
The color faded from Fubuki's eyes. A dark aura surrounded him.
''Fubuki!'' Endou shouted again.
He shook his shoulders.
''FUBUKI!'' He shouted at the top of his voice.
Endou tried to reach out to him, but nothing helped. Coach Hitomiko stood speechless on her spot, her eyes widened.
''Coach!'' Aki said to her.
Coach flinched a bit and turned towards Aki.
''If you keep Fubuki-kun out there, he'll only get hurt again!'' Aki said strict.
Coach Hitomiko narrowed her eyes.
''Change players!'' She shouted over the field. ''Megane-kun, switch in with Fubuki-kun.''
''O-Okay!'' Megane replied shocked.
Endou and Kidou helped Fubuki off the field. They sat him on a bench.
''Fubuki. Watch us from here.'' Endou said. ''All of us will win this for you.''
Fubuki still had a dark aura surrounding him. Chloë walked by too and laid a hand on Fubuki's shoulder.
''Don't worry about it.'' She said to him with a smile.
''What's the matter with him?'' The big guy asked from his stand.
The hooded guy looked frustrated at the players.
''Let's do this, everyone!'' Endou shouted at his team players.''
''We won't let them say we're weaker without Fubuki!'' Domon continued.
''Come on, guys!'' Chloë shouted.
The hooded guy turned his glare towards her and clenched his fists. The big guy saw it.
''Who's that girl? Do you know her?'' He asked.
The hooded guy didn't reply. The big guy looked worried at his friend.
''Who is she…'' He asked himself, while he turned back his glare at the field.
''Only if there was somebody else besides him who could entertain me.'' Desarm said.
He let his glare fall on Chloë.
''I heard stories about that girl. She's supposed to be one of Raimon's strongest players.''
He grinned evil.
''Let's see how much she can handle.'' Desarm said.
Epsilon headed up and reached Kabeyama.
''The wall!'' Kabeyama shouted.
Epsilon broke through it.
''The Tower!'' Touko yelled, but that was pointless too.
''Killer Slide!'' Domon said, while he slid over the floor.
He managed to steal the ball. Megane flinched.
''Th-They're coming!'' He said scared.
''Come on, Megane!'' Chloë shouted.
You could see that Raimon was clearly having struggles, now Fubuki was off the field. They relied on him too much. Epsilon made a Hissatsu shoot towards Endou's goal.
''Fist of Justice!'' Endou shouted.
He managed to block it. Epsilon tried another Hissatsu shot. Endou blocked that one as well. Then, Raimon started to lose power and all the players became fatigue. They were all panting, while they chased the ball.
''Why?'' Aki asked.
''Defending uses up far more energy than attacking.'' Coach Hitomiko answered her.
The ball is send up to Rika and Megane, but they got bumped over very hard.
''It's times like this that they need a forward who can keep possession of the ball at the front.'' The big guy said.
The hooded guy kept his glare on the field. His eyes were following Chloë, who was pretty tired and panting. Every member of Raimon desperately tried to steal the ball from Epsilon, but they were all getting bumped over. Chloë picked up a lost ball and started to head forward. A member of Epsilon came to stop her, but she used her Hissatsu Technique.
''Flaming Ball!'' She shouted, while she knocked over the team player.
She got through and headed towards the goal.
''Stop her!'' Desarm ordered.
Two giant team players knocked over Chloë.
''KYAAA!'' Chloë shouted, while she collapsed hard on the ground.
''Chloë!'' Team member of Raimon shouted at her.
The hooded guy his eyes widened and he clenched his fist. The big guy saw it.
''Oi, what's wrong?'' He asked.
The hooded guy didn't reply. He just gritted his teeth. Endou stopped a ball from Epsilon and threw the ball towards Kidou.
''Kidou!'' He shouted.
Kidou took the ball and ran panting forward.
''Chloë!'' Kidou shouted, while he passed the ball towards Chloë.
Chloë took and sprinted forward.
''Don't let her pass!'' Desarm ordered.
Chloë got past the field players of Epsilon and headed towards the goal. She jumped into the air.
''Fire Tornado!'' She shouted, while she performed her Hissatsu technique.
Everybody's eyes widened, even those from the Raimon members.
''Fire Tornado…'' Kidou whispered.
''But that's…'' Ichinose continued.
''Goenji's Hissatsu!'' Endou continued.
Desarm had struggles to stop the shoot, but he managed to block it.
''Pathetic.'' He said to Chloë, who gritted her teeth.
He threw the ball towards a field player of Epsilon and they ran towards Endou's goal. The match continued equally like that. After a while, when Desarm stopped a shot, he threw the ball out of the field.
''I no longer have interest in your shoots.'' He said.
''What?'' Kidou asked surprised.
''He's finally in the mood to do it.'' A team player of Epsilon said, while he smirked.
''Referee!'' Desarm shouted at the referee. ''I will change positions with the forward Zel.''
Everybody looked shocked.
''The goalkeeper changing positions with a field player?'' Kidou asked.
''Desarm as a forward?'' Endou asked surprised.
''With him on the bench, my only interest now is her.'' Desarm said, while he pointed at Chloë.
''Chloë?'' Endou asked surprised.
Chloë turned around shocked.
''Me?'' She asked in panic.
Desarm turned towards her.
''I'll make sure you'll get destroyed just like that guy on the bench.'' He said to her.
Chloë felt shivers going up her body. Endou's eyes widened too, just like everybody else's on the team.
''We're not letting that happen!'' Endou shouted.
The ball was thrown again and Kidou picked it up. Desarm quickly stole it from him. He bumped over Ichinose, Touko and Kogure.
''No!'' Chloë shouted.
She wanted to ran back to help defending, but Kidou hold her back.
''No! That's just what he wants. Stay on your position as a midfielder and forward.'' He said.
Chloë's eyes widened but she nodded. It was unbearable to watch how her team mates were slowly getting destroyed.
''What power…'' Ichinose said, when Desarm got past him.
Desarm bumped over Domon and Kabeyama as well and the path to the goal was now free. He only had to face Endou.
''Are you ready?'' Desarm asked Endou.
''Come on!'' Endou replied.
Desarm performed his Hissatsu shoot, Gungnir. It had an immense power. Endou used his Fist of Justice to block it, but it broke through.
''What?'' He asked.
He got blown back and the ball whizzed into the goal. Everybody's eyes widened and looked in total shock. The first point was for Epsilon Remastered.
''Th-That can't be…'' Endou stammered.
''The Fist of Justice…'' Aki said.
''I didn't mention this earlier, but my original position isn't goalkeeper.'' Desarm said. ''I'm a forward.''
''That can't be...'' Kidou said shocked.
Even the hooded guy looked shocked. You could see more features of his face and you could see his onyx eye clearly, but also his blond eyebrow. His mouth was open, full of disbelieve. Endou kept staring shocked at the ball that was lying in front of him.
''Grandpa's ultimate technique…'' He said shocked.
Then, the whistle to indicate halftime, was heard. Everybody was sitting with a defeated feeling on the side.
''Minna, come on. Don't be so depressed.'' Endou said.
''Yeah, don't you worry.'' Chloë replied. ''It's only one point.''
''But they broke through Fist of Justice!'' Kabeyama shouted out.
''I know, but we don't must give up the hope right now.'' Endou replied.
''If the Fist of Justice isn't working, that means we have to work harder instead.'' Chloë said. ''Right?''
''Y-Yeah.'' Kabeyama replied. ''I'll do my best!''
He pulled up his fists into the air. Everybody agreed.
''But we can't win unless we score.'' Ichinose said.
Kidou turned his glare towards Fubuki. He was still sitting on his bench with his dark aura and he lai a towel over his head. He kept staring lifeless in front of him.
''I'll take care of that.'' Chloë said with a trembling voice.
She putted pressure on her shoulders now. Kidou stood up and nodded.
''If we get a chance to get the ball, pass it to Chloë or run up yourself.'' He said. ''With Zel as the goalkeeper, and assuming his skills aren't as good as Desarm's, we should have a chance to score.''
Everybody looked at Kidou.
''Let's score for sure… and win!'' He shouted.
Everybody nodded. The big guy and the hooded guy were glaring at the Raimon players and heard every word they said.
''How unsettling.'' The big guy said. ''At times likes this, if they had that technique…''
The hooded boy stared in front of him. He still haven't say a word since he's watching this match. The shadows in his face are very light and you could clearly see his onyx eyes and blond brows. That face looked familiar…
''Should we continue the match?'' Natsumi asked coach Hitomiko.
''Yes.'' She replied. ''If we can overcome this, the team will become even stronger. I need them to develop more in order to defeat Aliea Academy.''
Endou slammed his notebook.
''What's lacking?'' He asked himself. ''What should I do?''
''Endou-san.'' Tachimukai called Endou.
Endou turned towards him.
''The second half is starting.'' Tachimukai told him.
''O-Oh.'' Endou replied.
He started to walk.
''Endou-san.'' Tachimukai said soft. ''Mind if I say something?''
Endou stopped and glared at Tachimukai.
''Sure, what?'' He asked.
''The Fist of Justice is an amazing technique.'' Tachimukai started. ''From what I can tell, it has no faults. It's just…''
''Just…?'' Endou asked.
''When I first saw Majin The Hand, it felt like a bolt of lightning rushed through my body from it's intensity.'' Tachimukai said. ''But I don't sense any of that impact from the Fist of Justice.''
Endou kept staring at Tachimukai.
''How do I say it?'' Tachimukai continued. ''Even if it's like a lion, it's still like a cub…''
''A cub…?'' Endou asked.
''Sorry.'' Tachimukai said. ''All I can say about it is vague…''
''No, Tachimukai, thanks.'' Endou said with a smile.
He laid his left hand on Tachimukai's right shoulder.
''Let's do our best in the second half!'' Endou said. ''Let's win this one!''
''Yes!'' Tachimukai replied.
Then, Raimon took his positions again on the field.
''This is where it ends.'' Desarm said. ''I've lost interest in you guys.''
He glared at Chloë.
''Besides you.'' He said. ''But still, I'll destroy you all. Be prepared.''
Chloë shivered again.
''Don't let those words affect you, Chloë'' Kidou said to Chloë.
''I know.'' She replied.
Still, it scared her. The opposite team will do anything to bring her and the others down. She sighed. This was going to be a rough second half. Then, the whistle sounded and the kick off was for Raimon. Rika ran up, but Desarm quickly stole the ball from her.
''That's way too fast!'' Rika said.
Kidou, Tachimukai and Ichinose ran up too, but Desarm forced a way through them. They got bumped out of the way. Desarm only had to get past Endou again. Endou slammed his fist in his other hand.
''This time…'' He said determined.
Desarm performed his Hissatsu Gungnir again. Kabeyama and Touko ran in front of the goal.
''Don't think you can get through easily.'' Touko said. ''The Tower!''
''The Wall!'' Kabeyama shouted.
It was a double defense, but Desarm broke through, making Touko and Kabeyama slam on the ground. Endou used his Fist of Justice again, but the ball broke through it again. The ball whizzed further to the goal, but Chloë jump in front of it and took the ball on her body. She got slammed with her back against the goalpost, but she managed to protect the goal. Her action hurt her pretty much.
''Chloë!'' Endou shouted.
Chloë stopped the ball and collapsed on the ground. Endou quickly grabbed the ball into his hands.
''Chloë, are you okay?'' He asked.
Slowly, Chloë rose up from the ground. She gave Endou a weak smile.
''Y-Yeah.'' She replied.
Desarm grinned.
''Hmm… interesting. That's what I meant.'' He said. ''This looks to be worth destroying.''
Chloë was clearly in pain, but she tried to hide it. The hooded guy sat on the stand and his eyes were widened, while he clenched his fists. You could clearly see he was in frustration.
''I know you want to help out, but you can't.'' The big guy told him. ''You know the consequences.''
The hooded guy closed his eyes. Desarm charged in again and bumped Rika and Megane over. After that, Touko and Kabeyama got injured by him. Then, Ichinose was sent flying and Desarm only had to face Endou again. In the mean time, Chloë was watching desperately around her. Her teammates were panting again and they all had scratches and bruises.
''Minna…'' She whispered scared.
''Here I go!'' Desarm shouted at Endou. ''Gungnir!''
''Fist of Justice!'' Endou yelled back.
The ball broke through it again, but Domon and Kogure quickly stood in front of the goal. Tachimukai and Kidou joined them and used their bodies to protect the goal. It worked, but the four of them collapsed hard to the ground. Chloë eyes widened to the fullest. Everybody of Raimon was lying on the ground and couldn't stand up anymore. Even Endou was lying on the ground with his eyes closed.
''Minna!'' Chloë shouted at the top of her voice.
''So, it looks like you're the only one who's still standing.'' Desarm said with a grin to Chloë.
Chloë gritted her teeth.
''What you're doing is unforgivable.'' She said.
''Pathetic talks don't change my mind.'' He said.
He kicked the ball straight at Chloë.
''KYAAA!'' Chloë shouted, while she collapsed on the ground.
She slowly crawled back on her feet again, while she kept one eye closed because of the pain.
''I'm… not giving… up.'' She said.
Immediately, another ball flew against her. She hit the ground again.
''No, stop it!'' Chloë shouted.
She stood up again and sprinted towards the ball. She was too slow and Desarm kicked another ball, but now against her face.
''KYAAA!'' Chloë shouted.
She hit the ground hard and this time, she didn't have the power left to stand up again. Then, the hooded guy stood up from the stand.
''I know you want to help her, but you can't!'' The big guy told the hooded boy.
At that point, his cell phone rang.
''Hello? This is Hijikata.'' The big guy answered his phone.
His eyes widened.
''It worked?'' He shouted out.
The hooded boy his eyes widened too.
''She's save?'' Hijikata asked in the telephone.
A smile appeared on his face.
''I'm glad. So, he is free to do what he want?'' Hijikata asked.
He smiled, nodded and hung up the phone.
''You can go.'' He said with a smile to the hooded boy.
The hooded boy immediately ran down towards the field. In the mean time, Chloë managed to stand up one more time.
''You can't break me apart!'' She shouted.
''Oh, we can.'' He said.
He kicked the ball into her stomach. Chloë clench her belly and fell on her knees.
''CHLOË!'' She heard someone shout her name.
She turned around because she recognized that voice. On the edge of the field stood a boy in an orange hoodie. He removed his hood and his identity was revealed. Chloë eyes widened.
''GOENJI!'' She shouted.
Everybody looked surprised up, even Desarm. And even Fubuki looked up. Everybody stood up slowly. Endou's eyes widened. Then, he smiled bright.
''Goenji, you're always late!'' He shouted with happiness in his voice.
Goenji gave him a smile. Then, he ran towards Chloë, who was still lying in pain on the floor.
''Chloë!'' He shouted, while he helped her stand up.
Chloë had bruises everywhere and she had one eye closed, because of the pain.
''Goenji, I'm so happy to see you.'' She said.
Tears of happiness rolled down her cheeks. Goenji pulled her into a tight hug.
''I'm sorry for leaving and letting you get hurt. There's a lot I need to tell you.'' He said.
Endou turned his glare towards coach Hitomiko.
''Coach!'' He shouted with a smile.
Coach Hitomiko nodded.
''Switch players!'' She shouted over the field. ''Goenji Shuuya is entering the field!''
Everybody smiled bright. Goenji pulled on his old uniform and looked with narrowed eyes at Desarm.
''You'll regret what you did. How dare you to hurt my friends and especially Chloë. I'm taking my revenge.'' He said.
Desarm looked shocked for a moment. Aliea Academy kept trying to destroy Chloë, but Goenji kept protecting her and even managed to score two goals. Then, the match was over.
''We did it!'' Endou shouted, while he jumped into the air.
Everybody ran towards each other. Endou shook Goenji's hand.
''Welcome back on the team.'' He said with a smile.
Goenji grinned back. Hijikata was watching from the sidelines with his siblings.
''That's great, Goenji. You're back into the place you belong.'' He said with a smile.
Goenji smiled. Then, he turned his glare towards Chloë, who stood a little outside the group. Goenji gave her a handsome smile. Chloë started to blush. A few moments later, when everybody headed towards the dressing rooms, Chloë stayed on the field. The audience was already gone, so she was alone. She looked around her and smiled. Then, she felt how someone grabbed her by her waist.
''KYAA!'' She shouted scared.
She turned around to look in the grinning face of Goenji.
''Goenji, you scared me.'' She said laughing.
Goenji smiled at her.
''I'm so glad you're okay. I felt so frustrated on that stand. I couldn't do anything.'' He said.
''Why not?'' Chloë asked him.
Goenji explained her the whole story about his sister being held as a hostage.
''Wow! That's awful!'' Chloë shouted out. ''Is she okay now?''
Goenji smiled.
''She is.'' He replied.
''I'm glad.'' Chloë replied.
Then, Goenji cupped his hands around her face.
''I'm glad to be with you again.'' He said.
Chloë blushed again. Then, Goenji brought his face closer and kissed her full on the lips. Chloë deepened the kiss and felt herself the happiest girl on the world.
''Goenji, does this mean we're back together?'' Chloë asked him.
Goenji nodded.
''Yes, we are.'' He replied with a smile.
Chloë squealed happily and hugged him tightly.
''I love you so much, you have no idea.'' She said.
''Oh, I think I do.'' He said, while he laid his chin on her head.
Together, they stood like that for a long time. And neither of the wanted to let go.
~ End of story ~
(A/N: Pfeww… this was a long story. My word counter in Word indicates 6.570 words! That's the longest one-shot I ever wrote. But I really wanted to write this story. It has a lot of the original series in it. Only the parts of Chloë and some sentences of the player did I made up. But I wanted to write about Goenji protecting a girl, teehee. And this seemed suited. So yeah, I hoped you like it! Please read and review! xoxo)
