The greenhaired alien - Inazuma Eleven

I'm nr. 6 in #inazumaeleven? How did that happen 😂💕

'What is this?'

'The journalists have gone mad.'

'It's just like Romeo and Juliet, two people who are in love, but can't be together. So romantic.'

All these weird comments woke me up, together with the bucket of water Bobbie threw over me, and Nathan his giggles. 'What have you done?' I frowned. 'What on earth are you talking about?' A newspaper was pressed under my nose. And next to the huge collumn about dying mooses in Uruguay and Canada, was an unexpected column.

'This morning an anonymous source sent a surprising picture. In the snow was Janus, known as the captain of Gemini Storm, talking with Raimon's manager Rhona Ivette DiLauris. The photographer claims he saw them smiling, and wouldn't exclude a friendship or even a romantic relationship.

'Right now the situation is unclear, but I'm pretty positive that Rhona isn't an alien. But I must agree with most of the people, there is something going on between those two,' Psychologist D. Virarette claims. More information will follow once we talked with the sixteen year old girl.'

I was overwhelmed. 'So,' Byron said excited, 'Anything romantic?' I shook heavily my head. 'What nonsense is this?' Nelly was grumpy. 'You tell me, were you really with Janus?' I shrugged. 'Just ran into him, that's all,' I admitted, and my thoughts drifted back to the meeting. The weird feeling I had at that moment rose up. 'You're blushing,' Nathan stated. 'Of course, this fake news is embarrassing.' Mark waved it all away. 'Let's snowboard,' he yelled. 'But I didn't eat my b-' I got dragged to the door. 'C'mon.'

But we never had the chance to step outside. Dozens of journalists were waiting for us. So a second later I slammed the door shut. 'You are ruining everything!' Nelly raged dramatically. 'Oh shut up.' Sylvia separated us. 'I think that we'll have to go through everyone, otherwise we can't practice,' she said worried. I sighed, the few camera lights I saw were blinding. And as if Celia read my mind, she gave me a big black hat. Kevin laid his hand on the doorknob. 'There we go.'

'Is it true?'

'Miss DiLauris, could you give me a statement?'

'What is your relation with the a-' I gestured everyone to be quiet, and many microphones were pointed at me. 'I can assure everyone that there is no relationship or friendship between me and Janus.' One of the reporters raised his hand. 'Then what were you doing in the snow with him?' Everyone started to talk through each other. 'Silence!' I shouted, and strangely enough it worked. 'Don't ask me how or why, but I ran into him when I went running. I found the black ball and tried to lift it, he caught me.' Another reporter waved. 'Why are you blushing?' I touched my cheek, and ever more flashes from cameras blinded me. 'I'm nervous,' I lied. I knew exactly why I blushed, it was because I somehow liked to spend time with Janus. I honestly didn't know why, since I also hated him. 'Now may I ask you to let us practice?'

Of course that didn't happen, an hour later we were live on some gossip show, able to hear everything the news reporters said. 'Here we see the team practicing, just continuing with their day. Looks like they've accepted the manager's interest in the alien.' I let my head hang. 'Rhona herself seems to be very embarassed. We want her to know that our show, Affaires Today, respect her emotions.' I put my head in my hands, this was going terrible. And just when the close up cameraman was about to leave, Aphrodi joined. 'Are you sure you're not in love?' I breathed in and out, trying to calm down. 'They were about to leave,' I hissed. Now the people were interested in him. 'How do you feel about this situation? You're the god of love after all.' He seemed to be very pleased when the man entitled him like that. 'Well, I'm not ruling out a romantic relationship, but I believe that nothing is happening between them. That would be very cute though.' That was the last straw. 'APHRODI!' And finally he shut his mouth.

The next two days went like this, and the world was way too interested in this.

It was day three on the Elphine school, and while the others were training, I decided to go somewhere private. The paparazzi calmed somewhat down, and I wanted to test a theory that I've been thinking of since the second match against Alius. The Astro Break. Until now it was unstoppable, but I had an idea. Janus had to spin the ball before shooting it. With a normal kick in the front it was unstoppable. But from the sides the ball would stop spinning, although the ball would probably be kicked out, or straight to another player. That's why it needed two players. In that way it wouldn't only stop the ball, but also pass the ball to a midfielder. I smiled to myself, this could really work. Fuck you Janus.

First I went to Jude, he is the gamemaker after all. I explained my idea, and he seemed rather... shocked. 'That's amazing! We should tell the others!' I shook my head. 'I need proof that it works. So I wanted to ask you, Kevin and Mark to help me.'

A few minutes later we stood behind the school, so no one could see us. 'Okay, Kevin shoots with a spinning ball, Rhona and Jude stop it and in case of emergency I will be in the goal,' Mark yelled excited. 'Here we go!' We used two trees as goal, and waited. 'Here it comes!' Kevin shoot, but it wasn't spinning. 'Don't worry,' I screamed. 'We will try it again.' And we did. Again and again. Finally he made the ball spin. I nodded to Jude, ran to the ball and hit it. But I was to late. He ran way faster, so it bounced back. 'Again!'

Finally, after hours we did it. We shot it back, and even made a dent in the school building. I was sweaty and exhausted, but happy. However, the pain in my leg had returned. 'That was amazing,' Jude said, with a little bit of pride in his voice for all of us. 'Kevin, can you try to make a spinning dragon crash? Then we saw coach Schriller. 'Very impressive, especially for someone who has never been on a soccer team. It's weird that I didn't notice your talents before.' I may or may not have been blushing. 'But I want to replace you with Nathan. 'What!' Kevin screamed, 'But she's doing so well!' Jude observed me when I walked towards Lina. 'you're injured,' he stated. I stared at the ground. 'That doesn't matter, I'm not a player anyway.' I made a drawing of the technique and gave it to Nathan. 'You better make this work.' He grinned. 'Of course I will make it work,' he smirked.
