Kagaya: Enjoy the chapter

Roze: they own nothing

Its been a total of one week since Endou came to Cotarl with Little Gigante and his grandfather. He was already used to the lifestyle in Cotarl thanks to Rococo and the team but he hasn't touched the ball at all yet. This caused his grandfather to get worried. Sure he hasn't seen his own grandson for a long time but it didn't take a genius to know that Endou loved Soccer.

"Daisuke?" Rococo called a little concerned about his coach.

"Hm? What is it Rococo? Why aren't you in practice?" he asked.

"You didn't tell us to go to practice plus today is Sunday so there isn't any practice today..." Rococo said and Daisuke sighed.

"Sorry...its just that Mamoru just hasn't touched a soccer ball in a long time now and I'm slightly worried about it.

Rococo looked over to where Daisuke was looking and saw Endou who was looking at the tires that was hanging on the tree. It was the tire he always used to practice with. He then walked over to him and called out; "Mamoru!"

Endou looked back and saw Rococo and gave him a smile. "Hey Rococo what's up?" he asked.

"Nothing, what are you looking at?" Rococo asked.

Endou then looked back at the tire and touched it slightly. "Nothing this just reminds me of how I used practice back in Japan..." Endou said with his smile turning sad.

Rococo frowned at this and smiled again. "I bet you didn't use it like this" Rococo said spinning the tire as he pushed it.

The tires spin and came back to Rococo. Endou was sure that Rococo would get blown off by it but instead he watched as Rococo caught the tire using his own two hands. "Wow..." was all Endou could say.

"Cool huh" Rococo asked and went up to Endou. "Do you wanna try?" He asked.

Endou thought a bit and gave a small smile. "M-maybe next time..." he said and walked away.

This made Rococo frown. He was sure, after all the things Daisuke told him about Endou, he would want to try it. This was much more serious than he thought.

NEXT DAY

Rococo and the others were taking a jog that morning before they would start their training for the day. Even though they were doing fine there was just one person who was slowing them down from the morning jog and that was their captain.

"Rococo are you sure you're fine?" Goshu asked his friend and captain.

"Huh yeah why wouldn't I be?" Rococo asked back

"Well if you're fine then pick up the pace this is way too slow for all of our good" Drago said and watched Rococo run faster.

Rococo was just worried though. Ever since morning he hasn't seen any sight of Mamoru at all. But then his thoughts soon flew away when he saw the village kids running towards them with a soccer ball in hand.

MEANWHILE

Yes. Meanwhile they were practicing, a certain boy was in the forest in front of the tire hanging on the tree. It reminded him of the good times with his old friends and teammates and it also reminded him of the bad times too. Endou sighed, he was in a new place far away from his old friends and his old home and old good and bad memories. He has to let go of it all, that was the reason why he came here and away from Japan. Yeah he had to try harder and forget about everything in the old country.

"Come on you almost got it!" the voice of Rococo came through the forest.

Endou's curiosity then got the best of him and he followed where Rococo's voice came from and he reached the soccer field where he found the whole Little Gigante playing soccer with little kids.

AT THE FIELD

"You guys are doing great!" Goshu called out to one of the kids which was dribbling the ball through the whole field to get to the goal.

"Now kick!" Rococo shouted to the kid but another kid kicked it away to the side in an attempt to steal it.

"Sorry!" the kid called out.

"Its fine!" Rococo said and was about to go get the ball until he saw someone get the ball first. "Mamoru?" he called at the boy who held the soccer ball.

Endou just looked down at the ball and then to the whole team and then to the kids. His face then soon turned into a large grin. "Hope you don't mind me joining!" he said kicking the ball.

Rococo smiled at this. "Sure be the other goalie!" he said as Endou went to grab one of the gloves on the bench and run to the other side of the field. Once in the goal area he clapped his hands together and shouted; "HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT!"

From the side of the field Daisuke watched them have fun with a smile. having his grandson on the team was definitely going to be a good choice for both the team and his own grandson.

RAIMON

Everyone in Raimon was also practicing soccer with their new coach, Coach Kudou, together with their new Manager Kudou Fuyuka. They had to admit they were having a hard time without Endou. Endou was always the one who kept their spirits up when everything was too had for them to handle. But now they don't have their captain anymore and yet they want him back.

"Everyone we're going to introduce you to your new teammates Kiyama Hiroto and Midorikawa Ryuji" Coach Kudou said showing a red head and a greenet.

"Hello everyone its been a while..." Hiroto said and looked around and noticed something. "What happened to Endou?" he asked.

Everyone looked down at that question. They didn't know what to say to him, they just couldn't explain that they drove Endou away and that he was no longer in Japan.

"What happened?" Midorikawa asked.

Gouenji and Kidou looked at each other and went up to the two. "We'll explain everything..." Gouenji said to the two who looked confused.

Star: so yeah if you thought it was lame we are sorry the block is still blocking...

Kagaya: but we did our best in this one!
