Accidental Reverse Arc 2

~'0'~

After a tense confrontation with Minamisawa, in which the forward admits to mostly having joined Gassan Kunimitsu in order to teach Raimon a lesson, they arrive at Cyclone Stadium.

As they reach the grounds, the Raimon team inspects the field they'll be playing on. ''The stage for Raimon versus Gassan Kunimitsu is in Cyclone Stadium!'' calls the commentator.

''What are those?'' asks Hayami as they all stare at the turbines.

''They're way too massive for air conditioning,'' adds Kurama, awed and confused.

Hamano frowns as he looks at the turbines. ''More like giant fans...''

''Raimon Jr. High lead by Coach Endou and Gassan Kunimitsu lead by Coach Kondou!'' says the commentator, who happens to be the same as yesterday. The Gassan team is already standing by their bench, not surprised by their surroundings at all. ''The game will begin momentarily!''

A few minutes later, both teams find themselves in position as the field. ''Both teams are in position! The match will start with Raimon's kickoff!'' the referee blows on his whistle and Tsurugi and Kurama start the match.

''Primary formation!'' comes the shout from Gassan Kunimitsu's captain, who has introduced himself as Hyoudou Tsukasa. His team immediately responds, running to both sides of the field and leaving the middle wide open.

After a long moment of hesitation, Kurama moves up, just when the turbines are activated and the first typhoon is created. It rages right behind the Raimon forward, straight through the path the Gassan Kunimitsu players form.

The tanned boy is caught in the typhoon and with a scream he's twirled in the heavy air currents. ''Kurama!'' the teen is finally released when the turbines stop and the cyclone dissipates.

''Are you okay?'' asks Shindou as he runs towards the forward, who has landed harshly on the ground.

Kurama groans as he stands up. ''Yeah...''

The match continues as Gassan Kunimitsu takes the ball. ''Secondary formation!'' calls Hyoudou and his team follows their captain's orders. The turbines start moving again and the Gassan players move right towards the cyclones that are created. ''Advance!''

''Gassan Kunimitsu's Flame Encampment!'' shouts one of the midfielders.

Hamano and Hayami attempt to stop them, but the Gassan Kunimitsu players are covered by the three typhoons. The two Raimon midfielders are stopped by the fierce wind and the opponent players move past them without any trouble, still shielded by the cyclones.

Just as they reach the point where they should get caught by the heavy winds as well, the typhoons die down. The front of Raimon's goal is completely open. With a few well-timed passes, the ball is played to one of their forwards.

Kariya suddenly moves in front of him. ''You're not getting through me!'' warns the tealheaded defender. The approaching forward takes the challenge and prepares to shoot.

Before he can, however, Kariya moves his hand to the side, as if slashing at someone. Reddish pink threads follow his fingers. He moves his other hand upwards and more threads braid themselves together. ''Hunter's Net!''
