"I'm getting a little nervous, who do you think made it through?" Isagi said, allowing his insecurities to be laid bare infront of you. "I don't care, as long as I can beat them." You said, glancing down at your hands- still feeling the adrenaline coursing through your veins from your goal. "Jeez, made one goal and you're already so cocky (Y/n)ie?" Bachira questioned amused. "Naturally, just shows I've got something only a few in here have." You mumbled taking a peek at Rin, who stayed still and non-verbal since you arrived.
"Will the second team enter?"
In entered Nagi, Barou, Chigiri, Zantestu, and another boy you didn't know. " 'Sup" "We're here donkey." That was directed at Isagi, who uniquely didn't look too mad. "Aw don't tell me you're about to cry 'sagi?" You said teasingly, whilst snickering. "You guys..." He started, "Isagi, why do you look so relieved? Did you think we might not have made it?" Chigiri asked knowingly. "You bastard." Barou said balling his fist. "Oh no! That's not what I meant..."
"You looking down on us? Talk about bigheaded." Nagi sneered. "What?- UH a little help, Y/n..-" Isagi fumbled, "We really are just the supporting cast to you, huh?" Chigiri interrupted. "That's not true! It's just, well...I'm happy. I'm glad I got to see you all again." 'These guys really are stupid...' You thought turning away trying not to laugh once Barou started yelling. You now faced Rin; the two of you hadn't had a proper talk since your breakdown.
"Hey." You said attempting to start a conversation. "What do you want?" He said with a serious face, however you could tell he was interested when you saw his eyebrows rise up slightly before furrowing. 'He's trying to hide his emotions lololol softie...He's almost too easy to read..' You quickly lost your glee as you cast your vision down to the ground. "I'm sorry for being an ass in the locker room that day. I just- ...I don't know. I don't like people seeing me cry, it makes me feel weak. Doesn't help I'm surrounded by teenage boys 24/7 either..." You added at the end chuckling awkwardly. "I'm the same." He added. You quickly glanced up to see a sight worth seeing.
There stood a boy who resembled an actual boy- not some adult persona. His hand scratched the back of his neck shyly as his gazed was casted anywhere but yours. He still had his eyebrows furrowed but he bit his lip slightly as if he was nervous. "That makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one!" You said slapping his back playfully. You could tell he was uncomfortable so you tried to alleviate some of it. "You know, you aren't that bad Rin."
"Neither are you... I guess."
"I GUESS???" You said with your had on your chest- offended so. "WHY'D YOU HAVE TO ADD THAT!!?" A tick mark seemed to pop out of his forehead, "Why are you yelling?!" "Uh... because ts pmo, broken heart emoji, dead rose emoji." He signed with his hands rubbing his temples. "Did you just quote emojis out-loud?" "Yup." "I take it back."
"WHAT NO-" Your bickering session ended abruptly, as Rin read the room and cupped your mouth with his hand. "Hey wait.. this is the last team, so where's Kunigami?" Isagi mumbled, eyes wide. You gently tore off Rin's hand. "Is that why he's been ignoring my messages..? Damn. I feel like a jackass." The last boy stepped through the corridor.
"Yo."
"Oh hecks no." You stated taken aback. You thought you got rid of this dude for good. He kept sending you this old lady twerking on Instagram so you delightfully hit the block button thinking he'd lock off and you'd never see him again. So why was this pink haired cockroach standing in front of you? "I'm the one that sent him down to hell. Sure he was a muscle man, but he wasn't enough to make it on the field. Anyone who ain't using explosive flashes are just trash. He was just a slime that didn't give me any xp, if you will. " Shidou rudely and rather nonchalantly stated, before his eyes flicked to you. "N/n! You made it! We finally get to play together!! Hey why'd you block me on instag-" "Shut up! You don't know anything about Kunigami." Chigiri seethed. All the boys took note of you knowing each other, but they had a bigger situation at hand.
"Chigiri..." Isagi stated. "This guy is really starting to piss me off." He finished. You still standing by Rin mumbled, "pmo... dead rose emoji, broken heart emoji...ts" Earning a hard chop to your head by the boy. "Read the room Y/n." "Hey watch it-!" You said, ignoring Rin, throwing your arm forward to pull Chigiri back. "Hey, keep your limbs to yourself Shitdou."
"Yeah we can take this outside, Mr. Salon Antenna guy." Bachira intervened standing between you and Shidou, in an attempt to shield you. "Pfft- HAHAAaaaaaa. I can't, I can't breath help... hehee.... Sorry." You said turning back around to face the two after your laughing fit. You heard Isagi sigh behind you before you were pulled back into someone's chest. "Stop causing problems." Isagi said from behind you, as you felt his chest vibrate as he spoke. Trying to ignore the heat rising to your face, you thanked god for the dark room and managed to argue, "I'm not even?-"
"All of you stop, before you hurt yourselves or I lock you off."
Ego's voiced sounded throughout the room, "You know the Two-Faced concealer is really good for eyebags..." "Y/n." "Yessir!" You stood up straight now, attention on him and focused. He casted his glare away from you and to the rest of the room.
"Well, let's just say a lot has happened, and plans have changed. Seems the bigwigs of Japanese soccer want to shut down Blue Lock and soon. So I decided to challenge them. " "Uh what..?" You mumbled blinking slowly, as Isagi elbowed you in the gut to stop talking. "As such, the next selection will take place three weeks from now, and the future of Blue Lock is riding on it. It'll be a special big match between Japan's U-20 team and the Blue Lock. And if you win the match, we get to hijack Japan's U- 20 team." "Hijack?" You said excitedly as you smiled brightly. "Does that mean we'll be on the U- 10?"
"Well, after all, this is a ragtag team of high school players, and everyone's a forward. They all snickered and readily agreed to the match. Their aim is to can the Blue Lock project, and use the buzz over this showdown to represent Japan to rake in money. But if we lose, we'll be a laughingstock, and our names will go down in Japanese soccer history as a failed attempt to train up talent."
He paused for dramatic effect, "So how does what you've heard so far make you feel? Frustrated at being taken so lightly? Or burning with fury and wanting to give them a shock? And I can say this quite calmly and pragmatically... Right now, you're good enough to overthrow Japanese soccer. That said, they're also gonna go all-out for the win. They've added one more player to their team. Itoshi Sae is that player." That name sounding familiar, as you connected the dots, you glanced to Rin. His fists were balled and his eyes wide, 'Interesting...' "Now, it's time to put it all on the line."
"Bagging a spot on Japan's U- 20 is no longer a dream. It's a reality you can reach out and grab. Let's go, diamonds in the rough."
'I can be a professional player. And taken seriously as a girl player. This is my chance to change football forever. And its just sitting waiting for me to grab it. Easy.' You thought grinning, legs itching to score another goal.
End.
