Chapter 1: New beginnings
Yoichi Isagi was born in Japan but at the age of seven his father got a new job that forced him to move to Europe, more specifically, to Spain.
He was struggling to have friends and with the language so his parents got him in the Real Madrid's academy.
On his first day Yoichi was listening to the coach, then he left to prepare everything for their first activity.
Yoichi looked at him then he noticed that next to him were two kids, one on his left and the other to his right, one had short blonde hair and blue eyes, the other had black hair and green eyes.
"Hey, I'm Leonardo Luna but please call me Leo" said the blonde kid with a smile.
"I'm Carlos Gomez" said the black haired kid "what's your name?"
Yoichi was a really shy kid but he was determined to make friends so he said with a small voice "I'm Yoichi Isagi, I'm from Japan"
"Wow! Really?! That's awesome, I like Japanese food and their cartoons!" Said Leo with a big smile.
Yoichi laughed softly "actually they are called anime" he said with a little smirk "you look like you are a fan of Naruto, right?"
"Wow! How did you know that?" Said Leo excited.
"I noticed your back had the symbol of Naruto's village, Konoha," said Yoichi with a smirk.
"You have good eyes Yoichi" said Carlos "what position do you want to play?"
"I want to be a striker, like Noel Noa. What about you guys?"
"I want to be a goalkeeper," said Carlos, smiling.
"And I want to be a striker too like Ronaldo" said Leo, smiling "how old are you Yoichi?"
"I'm seven, what about you?"
"I'm nine" said Carlos and Leo at the same time and they giggled at it.
Then the coach said "ok kids, get in groups of 5, we are going to work on your dribbling" they nodded.
Of course Yoichi, Leo and Carlos got in the same team, they added two other boys and their training began.
Carlos wasn't very good, Leo was pretty good and Yoichi managed to imitate Leo's technique and did it well.
The following month they met after training to work on school's homework and then practice everything they learned. Carlos finally started to train with the goalkeeper coach, while Yoichi and Leonardo were training as strikers.
As the months passed the three kids got better, Leonardo was amazing and Isagi was learning a lot about him. He was called a genius but Isagi wasn't too far behind him, however he soon realized that Leo and he had a different set of skills.
Leonardo was a pure central forward while Isagi performed better as a second striker or a right winger.
Both friends had a good relationship and had a healthy competition.
Soon they were the best attacking duo of the U-12 league and Carlos was reaching the status of a great goalkeeper for his age.
The years passed, Isagi learned how to read the other players' moves and the goalkeeper's, this unlocked an ability that allowed him to be the best playmaker in the team.
Leo also unlocked the ability to read the goalkeeper's moves and, with Yoichi by his side, they became unstoppable.
"So Yoichi, do you think we will keep playing at this level?" Asked Leo as they both were returning from a match.
"I hope so, I like to play alongside with you" said the Japanese boy with a big smile "I enjoy playing with you"
"Yeah, me too!" Leonardo smirked and they bumped their fists.
Years passed and Yoichi grew stronger, he wasn't as tall as Leonardo but his skills as a striker weren't in question, he was toe to toe with the Spanish player in goal numbers.
When he was twelve and his two friends were fourteen, a new guy joined, he had red hair, teal eyes and a nonchalant personality.
"Hey everyone, this is Sae Itoshi, from Japan. He's a striker and he's a really good player so let's give him a warm welcome!"
Yoichi approached him "hello. I'm Yoichi Isagi, nice to meet you" he said in Japanese with a warm smile.
Sae looked at him with a serious face "nice to meet you, Isagi Yoichi, I never expected another Japanese here"
"I joined five years ago and I grew up here with Leo and Carlos," he pointed at them. Sae was thirteen and those two were fourteen and right now they were considered part of the future elite, Yoichi was among them too.
In Sae's first month, something was clear for him. He wasn't as good as he thought, Yoichi and Leo crushed him in a 1v1 match and Carlos was able to stop his shots with ease.
So Sae was frustrated, and the coach and Yoichi noted this so one day they approached him "Sae... I know it's hard to ask you to change your position in the field but, this team already has two powerful strikers and we are lacking good midfielders so... Would you consider moving to that position?"
"I saw your passes in the round game and they were really good, you should try," said Yoichi with a kind voice.
Sae looked down for a whole minute, he promised Rin to be the number one striker and he would be his second best striker but Yoichi and Leonardo were way better and he was now sure, Japan will have its best two strikers in Yoichi and his brother so he nodded.
"Yes, I will move to the midfield"
This made him focus more on creating plays for Isagi and Luna, and he became the best at this, Sae was a machine at connecting passes and in no time he passed from being on the bench to play every match alongside with Yoichi and Leonardo.
His passes were so smooth and precise that both strikers became more powerful, if that's even possible.
Soon Real Madrid's youth team was a force you don't want to mess with and it was thanks to their four amazing players.
But things changed when Yoichi arrived home after practices. He was with Sae planning their strategies against their next opponents when they saw Mr. Isagi sitting at the table with his wife.
"Oh hey Sae and Yoichi" said him, smiling "Son we have some news for you... come here" Yoichi did it and Sae stayed on his feet "you too Sae. In this short period of time you have become like a son to us"
Sae sat next to Yoichi and his father said looking at both teens "I know how pragmatic both of you are so I will go straight to the point… My company decided once again to transfer me to another city. This time we will be going to München in Germany"
"Wait what?!" Said Sae and Yoichi at the same time.
"Yes… like I said. It's a decision they made for me, I don't get to decide whether I want it or not… I just have to do it" he sighed looking down "I know you are so close and this situation will break a nice friendship but I can't do anything. We have to leave in a week"
Yoichi closed his fists tightly as Sae asked "what if Yoichi stayed with me at the Real Madrid dorms? They will take care of him and I will be there for him"
"I wish I could do that Sae but I don't want to be away from my family" Yoichi just held his hand softly "you are like a brother to me and I don't want to lose you but my parents come first" Sae read his eyes, he meant each word but his heart was as broken as his.
Sae didn't say anything and just nodded "I…I will help you pack throughout the week" Yoichi smiled but this didn't reach his eyes entirely.
Both kids went upstairs and just did homework and they didn't talk about the situation, just enjoying their time together.
That week was painful, their coach told the team the following day and Leo and Carlos were as upset as Sae but Yoichi told them to stop. They will see each other again and will play again together but this was a decision he or they couldn't stop.
The team was sad too but they made sure that his final week was fun. They gave him gifts to remember them and the day they had their flight, Leonardo, Carlos and Sae went with them hugging and crying at their best friend leaving.
"Leo I promise that the next time we see each other, I won't let you win me" said Yoichi with fire in his eyes which made Leo to smirk "Carlos, keep getting better, I want to surpass your defense" he just laughed and nodded "Sae… I hope you decide to join the U-20 Japan team so we can play together and who knows… maybe play again in Real Madrid" Sae smirked.
"Only if I can play with you in the U-20 team" the older Itoshi brother smirked "when you have the German number, text us and keep us updated about you"
"Sure thing" Yoichi smiled and left to get in the gate zone and headed to his waiting area.
When they reached it they sat down and his father looked at him "you are so mature, son, I'm proud of you"
"Thanks dad… I wish I could stay here but my place is with you two"
"Thank you son" he smiled "by the way… one of my conditions to move there was that they will give you a chance to join Bastard München academy… I'm aware it's not as big as Real Madrid but it's a football team and you will have friends"
"Wait… that's Noel Noa's team!" Said the young striker an octave higher than intended.
"Yes, it is" said his mother with a big smile "of course you will be part of the younger categories but sure he will be around and if you are lucky enough, you will meet him"
Now Yoichi had something to look forward to so maybe losing his best friends wasn't that bad.
After arriving in Germany, they went to their new apartment. They set their luggage and thankfully they didn't have to move with furniture since the apartments were already equipped with everything they needed, they just had to put their clothes in their closet and other things in their rooms.
They walked around the city and, for the first time in years Yoichi was grateful he picked German as third language in school. His school taught him English and of course Spanish but he could pick a third one so, for some weird reason, he picked German.
He was able to speak, he wasn't fluent but at least I can communicate with them so they bought three telephone plans and went to the supermarket to buy food.
Yoichi's parents had English so they were able to communicate as well so no problem.
The following day after school Yoichi went to the Bastard München stadium and met with the person his father told him to go to. They spoke about his desire to join, he was reluctant until he said he was in Real Madrid academy. So he accepted immediately.
The following day he was part of the powerful German team. Isagi was excited so he joined his first practice and witnessed a shooting practice. He saw a powerful shot from outside of the area.
There was a boy shooting, with long blonde hair with blue tips, next to him was a boy with short magenta hair.
Yoichi was in shock watching "are you Isagi?" Asked a man from behind.
"Yes" he turned to meet a pair of grey eyes.
"Hello I'm Gareth Graham. I'm the coach and those are Michael Kaiser and Alexis Ness, they are part of this team as well" Yoichi nodded.
He heard about the emperor and his powerful shots and the magician who passed the ball to him. They were a great duo, sadly he lost his partner because if Sae was there, he surely would compete with them, but for now, he will have to fight for his place in the team.
OOooOOooOO
I hope you liked this first chapter, this will be a Kaisagi fic for sure, I haven't decided yet if I should send Isagi to the Blue Lock project or use him for the NEL arc as part of the BM oficial lineup.
Any thoughts leave me a comment. Hope you liked this one.
