After a fatal accident that rendered her paralyzed. Y/N was desperate to be able to walk and do something she loved the most. That is playing soccer. But the deal comes with a condition. She has to be a spy for a rising group of soccer team, known a...
My eyes soften at how determined they seem. Wish I could do something. They'll get hurt if this match continues. But what can a paralyzed girl like me do? I can't even stand up from this bench.
I'm so useless
-Something Matters-
Y/N P.O.V
Everyone looks exhausted. Some of them even have a hard time standing up. It hurts to see everyone trying so hard. They're determined to win, because they want to keep my dream alive. I can't believe how far they would go for someone like me. Even after finding out my true intention. They still accepted me as one of them.
Endou collapse on his knees after trying hard to stop the ball Reize had kicked. "This ends now" Reize said. He jumps in the air and performs his hissatsu. My eyes widen in horror. If he gets hit by that technique. He's not going to be able to stand.
"Endou!!!" I yelled out. My body moves on its own as I stand up, startling both Otonashi and Kino. I appear in front of Endou and kicks off the ball. I land on my feet as I breathe heavily from the adrenaline.
"L-L/N..." Endou said. I let out a shaky breath as I look down at my feet. I move them slightly, surprise that I can feel them. I turn my head to look at everyone who looks shocked.
"I can move..." I breathe out in shock. I turn to look at my friends. "I can move!!!" I yelled out, happily. I jump and did a flip. I land back on my feet as I stare at my feet in shock.
I turn to look at Endou. "I can move..." I said. A grin starts to form on his lips. I turn my head to look at the coach. "Please let me play!" I said, raising my hand. She agrees and let me switch with Kurimatsu.
"Good luck, L/N!" Kurimatsu said, giving me a thumbs up. I smile softly and nod my head. I claim my spot as the striker alongside Fubuki. I feel my body surging with energy.
"Ah... what a dirty trick" I said, scoffing in annoyance. I turn my head to look at Reize. "That necklace's purpose wasn't just to help me be able to walk. It also suppressed my true strength. Now it makes more sense. Why I can't use my hissatsu at their full potential. I can't believe I let selfish bunch like you treated me like a toy. But now, I'll make you regret it" I said, glaring at him. The flute rings and Fubuki gently kicks the ball to me. I start to dribble the ball towards the opponent's goal.
My path is blocked by one of them. Behind me, another one is coming. A light smirk starts to form on my face. I turn to look at the one in front of me. I speed towards him. Just as he was about to grab me. My body moves at a high speed which creates an after-image moving past him.

"What?!" He said, turning to face me in shock. I just grin as I focus on getting to the goal. I pin the ball between my leg as I jump high in the air. I spin and releases it.
"Vampiric Draining!" I yelled out. A spark of light starts to emit around the ball. It speeds towards the goal. The keeper tries to stop it. I just smirk to myself. The harder he tries to push the ball back... the stronger the force my technique gets because this technique sucks the energy of the opposing person gaining strength in the process.
"W-What is t-that?" The keeper said as he stares at the ball in shock. He turns his head to look at me. "The harder I pushed the stronger it gets. H-How is t-that possible?" He said.
"Just like the mythical creature known as Vampire. They drained their enemy by drinking their blood to gain more strength. This technique is just like that. It drains the opponent's technique, turning it into its own power. That's why... the harder you push... the stronger it'll get. I wasn't able to use it before, because that necklace was suppressing my strength. Such a cheap trick to make sure I won't go against your plans" I said. The keeper looks exhausted after trying to stop my technique. I feel my body getting tired.
I feel my legs getting wobbly. "Damn... I'm still not as fit as before" I muttered to myself. I feel a gentle hand on my shoulder. I turn my head to see it's Kazemaru.
"Don't push yourself... you can rely on us. We're a team here" he said, smiling softly at me. I just smile softly at him. I nod my head. These people truly are my friends. They're willing to fight for me, and I'm gonna do the same for them.
We take positions as the opponent throws the ball at us. I speed forward and steals the ball. "Fubuki!!" I yelled, as I kick the ball towards him. He accept the ball and starts to dribble towards the goal. His atmosphere change once again. He uses his Eternal Blizzard Hissatsu.
The opponent's keeper tries to stop the ball. But it's the technique is just too strong. Plus, he was probably tired from trying to stop my shoot. The ball eventually makes it in. The flute rings, indicating the end of the game. My eyes lit up as I turn to look at my team members.
"We won!!!" Endou yelled out, making everyone cheers in excitement. Endou rushes towards me and throws his arms around me. I flinch in surprise at his sudden move. I smile softly once I got over my temporary shock. I lift my arms, wrapping them around his torso.
I pull away from the hug and turn to look at Reize who looks disappointed. He also looks fearful, and I know why he's afraid. I make my way towards him.
"You know... didn't you? The terror of Aliea Academy" he said. I smile weakly at him and nod my head. "We're only the second team. Compared to Epsilon, we're..." he said.
He shuts his eyes tightly and shakes his head. He turned his head to look at me. "L/N... do you know why I tried to hard to prove myself to be strong?" He said. I blink my eyes in surprise as I furrowed my eyebrows. Why did he suddenly bring that up?
"Because I want to show you that I'm worthy. Maybe then... you'd rely more on me" he said. He steps closer to me. "It hurts when you chose them than us. I wished you would've just stayed with us. But, I know where you stand, L/N. And before anything else happens. I just want to say..." he stopped talking once he stands right in front of me. He slowly lift his hand, gently cupping my cheek. "I love you" he said, in a soft voice. My eyes widen as he leans in, placing a soft kiss on my lips.
