Chapter 36: Outstanding Japanese Soccer Team


"Let's go!" Schneider claimed the ball, a jolt of pain flashed through his leg. Was I paralyzed after the crash with Tsubasa?

"Let me handle this." Ryo dashed forward. "We'll defend this position."

"I'll guard the goal." Genzo assured. "Ishizaki and the others, go intercept the ball."

"I won't let you!" Misaki cut in the German's centering.

"It's the guy again." Kaltz muttered, Misaki having cleared the ball. "He ruined out opportunity."

Schneider caught the corner toss and headed straight for the Japan goal.

"Schneider, I won't lose." Tsubasa swore, despite his injury.

Go, 'Fire Shot'! Schneider fired his shot.

"We will win." Genzo declared, jumping to catch the ball.

"Hyuuga!" Matsuyama sent the ball out when Kaltz cut in, claiming the ball.

"Come on, Schneider." Kaltz remarked.

Is this the serious Kaltz? Genzo wondered as Kaltz bypassed Sawada easily.

"No way!" Jito came forth after Shester caught Kaltz's pass.

"Mark Kaltz!" Genzo barked, Shester having made his pass.

"Stop him." Ryo declared, as he and Matsuyama moved in.

"What?" both defenders gasped when Kaltz passed the ball out.

"What?" Schneider was stunned when Tsubasa headed back before him, blocking his shot's path. "I've got it!" he shifted the ball over to his left leg and fired his shot.

Genzo dived to save the shot, only to have the ball fly pass him into the net.

The match restarted with less than 5 minutes left on the clock.

Having dodged the German's slide-tackle attack, Tsubasa was taken down by Kaltz's air-borne assault.

Leaving Tsubasa on the ground, Kaltz headed towards the Japan field, passing the ball over to Schneider.

Schneider then bypassed the Japan defense, facing Genzo one-on-one.

Right. Genzo used the posts as leverage, stopping the ball. "Go, Tsubasa." he kicked the ball out.

That's right. Tsubasa got to his feet, claiming the ball.

"Tsubasa, here." Misaki voiced, following closely.

"Misaki." Tsubasa sent the ball out.

"Kojiro, take over!" Misaki dodged the German defender's slide-tackle and passed the ball out.

I have to be the best. Hyuuga dodged the pass. It's your turn, Captain.

"I won't let you." Schneider swore as the ball came underneath Tsubasa's foot.

"Not yet." Tsubasa hissed, taking to the air as Schneider's block sent the ball flying.

Both captains fought for the ball in mid-air, with Tsubasa winning out and firing his shot.

Müller jumped to block the shot, only to have the ball hit the goal bar.

Not yet. Tsubasa renewed his attack. "This ball determines the victory.

"I'll block it." Müller swore, diving to stop the ground-borne 'Overhead Kick', only to have the ball course alter and the ball to fly straight up through the net.

Just then, the whistle sounded, signaling the end of the match and Japan's championship victory.

"Congratulations, Japan Junior Youth." Schneider reached out. "Good job, Tsubasa."

"Schneider." Tsubasa beamed, returning the handshake. "Let's meet at the International Cup."


On the bench...

"Okay, let's go back." Mikami told the overjoyed team.

The team's cheers were silenced by Ami's startled gasp.

"Roberto..." Tsubasa gaped, turning to where his cousin's eyes had settled on.

"Tsubasa, congratulations." Roberto took off his sunglasses.

"Did you watch the game?" Tsubasa was stunned.

"You did a good job as a mid-field leader and a captain of the whole team." Roberto nodded. "Your dream of being the best in the world, I'd like to give you a hand. Tsubasa, come to Brazil and play soccer there."

Behind the scenes of Naruto, Part Two

"I'm going to brush Lee's eyebrows!" Sakura snapped at Ino.

"I told you already I'm going to!" Ino pushed Sakura to the side.

"Please ladies stop fighting!"" Lee said. "You can both brush my eyebrows!"

"OK I get the right one and you can get the left one." Ino suggested.

"But I want the right one!" Sakura complained.

"You get the left one!" Ino yelled angrily.

While Ino and Sakura were fighting on who would brush what eyebrow, Naruto was dealing with his own problems.

"What were you saying Naruto?" Hinata asked turning her attention from Lee to Naruto.

Naruto started to blush and he avoided Hinata's gaze. "Uhh...W-well...I just...you know...I-I just wanted to ask you if..."

"Hinata!" Neji!" It's time for your scene!"

"I'm really sorry Naruto I gotta go. Tell me later OK!" Hinata gave him a little wave and quickly made her way to the set.

Naruto sighed to himself. If only he wasn't so shy. If only he had the courage to talk to Hinata without making a fool of himself. Then a great idea jumped into his head. He would advice. But he wouldn't ask just anyone he would ask the smartest, wisest, most brilliant person he knew.

Meanwhile at the other side of the set...

"Your my agent and I told you I want those deals!" Tenten whined into her cellphone. "I told you I'm gonna be the star of Tenten 1/2, Ten-Ten-Oh, and Cardcaptor Tenten."

Suddenly Hinata appeared out of nowhere. "Tenten where the heck is Neji it's time for his scene!"

Tenten pulled the cellphone away from her ears and pointed to a dark corner of the set. "He's over there but you might have a hard time dragging him to the stage!" Tenten then resumed to talking in her cellphone. "I don't care what they say get me those roles!"

Hinata walked over to the place where Tenten was pointing. Hinata found Neji in a ball rolling back and forth. "The itsy bitsy spider went down the water spout..."

"Neji. It's time for our scene. Now why don't you get up." Hinata spoke to him gently.

"Down came the rain and washed the spider out..." Neji continued to rock back and forth on the floor.

"Neji...Please get up!" Hinata was getting desperate.

"Out came the sun and washed up all the rain...And the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again...he he he he he he." Neji finished the song and started to laugh softy to himself.

"You're creeping me out. Come on Neji." Hinata grabbed the paranoid boy by his shoulders and started shaking him.

"The itsy bitsy spider...he got washed out...washed out...will he ever get up the water spout...tell me!" Neji quickly grabbed Hinata's collar and started to shake her frantically.

"Yes. Yes he will. Now come on, let's go." Hinata removed Neji's hands from her collar and tried to drag the poor boy to the set.

"The spiders!" spiders!" spiders!" Neji put his hands to his head and started to roll on the floor.

"This is stupid." Hinata sighed. She stood silently as she watched Neji roll on the floor.

Suddenly Tenten appeared next to Hinata. She placed her hand on Hinata's shoulder. "Well there is one way I know..."

"And how is that?" Hinata asked.

"Well..." Tenten started in a devilish voice.

Meanwhile in Sasuke's dressing room...

Sasuke stared at his own reflection at the mirror. He had to find a way to grow his eyebrows so that the ladies would dig him. Growing his own eyebrow would take months. He had to find a way to grow them now. The racked his brain for ideas. There was only person that could help him the only problem was that he was well...scared of that person. Sasuke swallowed hard, he had to do it if not for himself but for all the girls. He had to talk to him. Sasuke had to talk to Gaara.

Sasuke made his way to Gaara's dressing room and reluctantly knocked on the door.

"Just a minute!" Gaara's muffled voice yelled from the room.

"Yes!" Gaara open the door in a frenzy. When Gaara saw it was Sasuke his eyes started to grow wide.

"Did you change your brushing your eyebrows?" Gaara asked enthusiastically.

"Uhh...no...but I do want to ask you a favor..." Sasuke said slowly.

"Please come in." Gaara opened his dressing wide open and escorted Sasuke in.

Sasuke reluctantly followed Gaara into his dressing room. Gaara signaled for Sasuke to sit on a brown chair facing him. It was the one of the strangest places that Sasuke that ever been. One corner of his room was a sandbox and it looked like Gaara was in the middle of making a sand castle. In the other side of the room was closet and some a big wall mirror. On the table in front of the mirror was a big black case.

"So what favor did you exactly want to ask?" A blushing Gaara asked.

Sasuke swallowed hard and decided he should just come out with it. "Gaara, Can I borrow some eyeliner!"

Gaara stared at Sasuke on his face was a confused expression. "Eyeliner? Why?"

"Well it's kind of personal. So can I?" Sasuke asked hopefully.

"Well I guess you can." Gaara walked over the table next to his mirror. He quickly unlatched the black case and opened it. It was one of the most amazing things that Sasuke had ever seen. In the case was rows and rows eyebrow pencils. "OK Sasuke. What color do you want I have 386 different colors. I have Charcoal black, rainbow black, ebony black, Help me I'm dying black, midnight black, dark black, black marble, Tickle-me-black, black oblivion..."


SailorStar9: What color eyeliner will Sasuke pick? Will Tenten and Hinata ever get Neji to the set? Who will Naruto ask advice from? Will Lee ever get his eyebrows brushed? Well, the World Youth arc is done; next stop, the International Cup.
