Unleashed Natura: Wings, Paws, & Scales.

Chapter 14: Fangs

RESTART!!

With Chris Prince and Noel Noa now on the pitch, the tension heightens. 'Chris and Noa are on the field... For five whole minutes! I need to be the first to grasp this situation!!' Isagi notioned in his mind.

Isagi then glanced at the trio of Hayato, Riku and Chouka. 'These three are gonna be a huge trouble... They're an unexpected combination.'

Isagi was moving up the field, leaving his position in the defense line. Catching up to the rest of the players. 'I won't rush in to steal the ball... It'll just end up with others getting in my way.'

Isagi shifts from his irrational mindset, thinking back to Noa's words: "I'll ally myself with... whoever plays the most logically."

'That's right... Don't try for a miracle goal! Think calmer... And more realistic... To snag that final point...'

'I will embody Noa's words!!'

"Micha.. Pass!" Chouka pleaded, but it seems that Kaiser was ignoring him. Kaiser then instead passes to Ness.

Chouka makes eye contact with the midfielder, and Ness passes to him. Kaiser's eyes narrowed, yet his expression was unreadable.

Chouka dribbles swiftly, his eyes locking onto the defender from Manshine City. Jun and Chouka held eye contact with each other, communicating to each other through the mirrors of their soul.

'I will, break you.'

'In your dreams, stupid butterfly.'

Suddenly, Chris Prince appears and stops Chouka dead in his tracks. "Hmm.. Seems female enough." Chris Prince teases, causing the feminine male to flush.

"I've heard about you." Chris Prince grins. "Chouka Frey, Bastard Munchen's pretty little butterfly. Show me what you've got! I've already seen some of your skills... But it's not enough! Show me more, pretty boy!"

"Is that so? Bet!" But before Chouka could even move, Chris was already using his physicality on him. "Hey now.. That's not fair, You wanna see my skills right? Then just make it easier for me, please?" Chouka asked with fake politeness, while under his calm facade he was seething.

Suddenly, two figures appeared. "Chouka! Pass to me!" Riku asked for a pass. While Kaiser simply just held eye contact with him, knowing that Chouka already knew what he wanted.

'Huh... Who do I pass to..?' Chouka didn't know what to do. 'Why... Why am I hesitating..? I should pass to Kaiser...'

"Listen up, insect. There's no point in dick riding that arrogant bastard."

'So that's why...' Chouka blinked, then shook his head. 'But I'm not... I'm not a dick rider...!!' Chouka feels his cheeks heat up. 'Why am I feeling like this..? I hate it... But it feels so good... Ugh, damn it focus!! Why am I thinking of all these things? He didn't actually mean it in that way...'

Chouka grunts, deciding to ignore his... unnecessary thoughts for now and instead tried focusing on the match. His eyes darted between Riku and Kaiser. Not knowing who to choose...

If this were in the point of time, when Riku was not relevant in the team. Chouka would've chosen Kaiser with no hesitation. Yet, now.... It's not like Chouka suddenly liked Riku over him.

'I can't... I can't make a violation of loyalty to Michael.'

'Oh... But you already have.' A traitorous voice inside of Chouka's mind cackled. 'Why not abandon him already? He'll abandon you anyway, so abandon him before he abandons you. You already knew he'd abandon you someday but you turned a blind eye.' The voice continued.
