The next day morning, Raimon were praticing for the upcoming match against Chaos. They were back at Raimon after boarding the Caravan back to school.
"all right, guys! Let's work it up today!" Endou encouraged everyone.
"Yeah!"
"Our match with Chaos is tomorrow. We'll pratice today with specific goals." Kidou said, " Endou, _ and I will work on strengthening Death Zone 2. Tachimukai and Tsunami will continue working towards completing Mugen the hand."
"Hai!"
"Leave this guy to me!"
"The rest of you will work on your formation centering around Gouenji and Aphrodi." Kidou continued.
"Okay!" Then, the team went to do what they have to do.
"Let's go! Death zone 2!" Endou said.
"Yeah!" You and Kidou repiled. Endou kicked the ball up into the air and the three of you jumped, spun and kicked twice.
" Death zone 2!" This has been continuing till afternoon.
"That'll be all for today's practice!" Kidou shouted.
"It's over..." Kabeyama sat down on the floor. Megane and Kogure looked tired.
"I can't take another step." Megane said, using his lsgs to support himself. Everyone took their bags and walked back to their dorms in Raimon junior. Just then, you remembered the managers talking about a place where Endou trains. Something like Steel tower plaza. Gran talked about that place too. You noticed Endou walking away and quickly followed him. You wanted to see the place where Endou trains. To know his soccer more. Well, it was more is you were curious.
You found yourself walking down a fow of houses. Thinking that this might be where Endou's house was. Endou seemed to be thinking to himself. You wondered if it was about Chaos.
"I'll never lose!" you heard Endou telling to himself. You called him.
"Endou!" He turned around.
"_! Something wrong?"
"No. There is this one place I want you to take me to." You smiled. Endou gave you a blur look. A few minutes walk and you were at the steel tower plaza.
"This is it. This is the place."
"wow...so this is the steel tower plaza..." You exclaimed. Amazed by the beauty of the place. This is the place Gran was talking about... You thought.
"If you wanted to come here that badly, you should have told me earlier."
"I'm kinda forgot about it." You sweatdropped, "Gran talked about this place before. Saying there was this place you train on your own to become a strong goalkeeper."
"Yeah. This is the place. That tire over there." endou pointed at a tire hanging by a rope tied to a tree. "My ji-chan wrote this in a notebook full of techiques. I used this to help Raimon be stronger." Endou took out an old notebook from his bag. He opened it up. At first you were excited to read the notebook but once when you saw the page your facial expression changed.
"ah..."
"gomen. Only I can read it." Endou scratched his head. You sweatdropped. That means Endou must have horrible handwriting. You thought. You walked over to the tire.
"How do you use it?" You asked. Endou got beside you and pushed the tire.
"throw it as hard as you can, and..." The tire when up and down like a swing. Endou stopped the tire.
"wow...I want to try!" You took the tire and pushed it.
"Are you sure you'll be ok? You never been a goalkeeper before."
"I'm sure." The tire same as before came speeding towards you. You got ready and used your left leg to stop it. You pushed it back and it went up again. This time Endou stopped it.
"Suge! You legs are super strong!"
"I'm from aliea academy of course!" You two laughed for a short while and stopped. Kidou and gouenji appeared beside you.
"I knew you'd be here." Kidou said.
"Gouenji! Kidou!" Endou called. Gouenji walked towards the tire with you while Endou and Kidou sat at the sides watching. Gouenji pushed the tire and kicked it to make it spin.
"wow...That's awesome Gouenji!" you said.
"now you try it." He said.
"huh?"
"Come on. I saw what you did." You stared at him and he stared at you back. You then weak smiled.
"alright. I'll do it." Gouenji pulled the tire for you. You grabbed it and pushed it. Letting the tire to come to you and you kicked it. It spun and you stopped it like how Endou stopped it.
"I never knew you knew goalkeeper moves." gouenji asked you, still shocked by what he saw. You smiled.
"Hematite taught me come goalkeeper moves. Well, just the basics."
"Zero's goalkeeper?"
"Yeah..." You weak smiled and looked at the sky, "I-I wonder how they are doing." The image of Zero in the room with machines sucking out their power appeared in your mind. Your eyes watered.
"_." gouenji pat your shoulder. His eyes soften.
"i'm alright." you wiped away the tears and forced a smile on your face, "Endou! Kidou! Come over here and practice with us!"
"All right, I'm coming! Kidou!" endou ran towards the tire.
"Let's have a power competition." Gouenji said.
"All right!" Endou said. From there, you four played with the tire till it was dinner time.
The next day, was the match against Chaos. Raimon were already at the field preparing for the match. Teikoku Academy soccer club were watching from the seats in the stadium.
"It's almost time." You whispered to yourself. Burn...Gazelle...Chaos...Why did Diamond Dust and Prominence join forces? Don't tell me that...That father has chosen the team for the tittle Genesis! Then, that must mean that Gaia is genesis! No way!
"A penny for your thoughts?" A voice knocked you off of dreamland. You turned your head.
"Aphrodi..."
"you seem to be in a deep thought. What is it?"
"Nothing."
"It's something about chaos isn't it?" A twitched of your facial expression convinced Aphrodi that his answer was correct, "I knew it."
"Endou. _. Don't hold back. If you see an opportunity, don't hesitate to move up." Kidou spoke.
"We will win this with Death zone 2." Endou said. You nodded. Just then, the same black soccer ball fell from the sky and hit the field. They're here... The mist clears, letting you see Chaos.
"You guys aren't very smart, are you?" burn said, showing his grin.
"You're carefree enough to show up even when you know you'll lose." Gazelle said, "Endou Mamoru, I'll make you regret accepting the challenge of the universe's strongest team."
"We won't lose! These friends of mine are the strongest on Earth!" Endou said.
"tsch." burn gritted his teeth. He noticed you feeling uneasy. He grined again, "you know what Platinum. Sliver was delighted to give us his power to us. The rest of Zero too."
"Shut up! They would never do that! You forced them to!"
"They did by their own will. It's not our fault."
"That's because it was father's!"
"Feeling heartbroken aren't you? Knowing what happened to zero."
"You sadist!" you wanted to punch Burn in the face. Tears were already forming at the sides of your eyes. Endou stopped you by grabing your shoulder.
"_! I know you are angry, but use this feeling in the match." Endou said. You kept quiet. Once when you calmed down, Endou let go of you.
"You're right Endou. I'll bring justice to Zero." you clenched your fist, "and Chao's going to go down!"
