THE PAIN - Inazuma Eleven Go Fanfic

CHAPTER 22: ARAKUMO VS. SHIZEN PT.1

PREVIOUSLY: FRIENDLY MATCH

"If the purpose of this is to check out the team's condition. Don't you think, it is necessary to have spectators to watch our match." Shindou gazes at them and gestures towards the people around, excitedly entering the building. "I don't believe we'll have a match. Coach Endou will make it private if that's the case. Instead, there will be a big event happen here and he wants us to witness it too."

"It makes sense but you might be right. Whatever will be, we'll have to prepare for anything and hope for the best." Shindou and Tsurugi nod their heads, understand the goalkeeper's thinking. So they are off to go and catch up with their team.

What they don't know is once they step inside the stadium, a shocking event is waiting to blow their minds in soccer.

************************************

A glorious day to have an exciting match under the fine weather. People bust in the seats of the stadium, witnessing the rise of a mysterious soccer team they've heard from others.

In spite of this big crowd, the number one top soccer team on the holy road tournament calmly makes an entrance in the spectator's area. There are others who notice and address them. Naturally, Raimon became more popular and attracts a lot of attention after their championship.

"Hey, Raimon is here."

"What are they doing here?"

"Do you think they're here because of the new team?"

"Ohh, Shinsuke is so cute like a Pikachu."

"They are so cool in close."

"Tsurugi is so handsome."

"Ahh, Shindou!"

"Matsukaze is not with them? What could have happened?"

People continue to whisper about them. Many have noticed the absence of Raimon's bright captain and get curious. It's not likely for Raimon to be incomplete when it comes to soccer-related.

Raimon hasn't noticed the rumors people doing. Rather they are too busy looking at the whole stadium. The seats are already being filled the 1/2 of the place. Normally in a friendly match, only 1/4 of the people attend or make it private. It's rare to have this many people on this kind of occasion.

Endou looks at the clean field in front. "Let's sit here. It has a clear view of the whole field." His team obeys and takes the seat at the very top of an empty seat section opposite the sidelines.

The Raimon players are already at ease after knowing the truth a while ago.

FLASHBACK

As they entered the building, they've welcomed by a person. "Greetings Raimon!"

The two coaches shake each other's hands. "Karibe-san, thank you for letting us here."

"Where are Taiyou and the others?" Nishiki looks around the place, tries to spot the team they're going to have a match.

"They are currently at the waiting room, preparing for the match later on."

The Raimon players start to get tensed, especially the first years and Hamano. Thinking of it, the Arakumo are well prepared for the match, while here they are, come in unprepared for this unexpected match.

"I"ll take my leave. The match will start at any minute. I need to check on the team. I"ll see you later after the match, Raimon. Hope you enjoy the show." Coach Karibe bids them a fair well and walks away to her team.
