The greenhaired alien - Inazuma Eleven

Maybe this'll help
---------------------------
I wandered around in the training center. Celia and Sylvia were shopping and I had no interest in talking with Nelly or Willy. Besides, the two were arguing all morning about Willy's hospital visit. Of course I had to watch out for the children upstairs in the ride, so I couldn't go upstairs. I walked into a random room and saw cleaning supplies. I was about to leave the place, but right before I did, I noticed a little in dust-covered case. After I wiped the dust off of the lock, I saw initials carved into the leather. D. Q.  Clyde jou better not open tis. I concluded that it belonged to a child or someone with dyslexia. Probably both. I sat down on the concrete floor and stuck my hairpin in the lock. After I pushed the pins in the right places, I heard a little click. I opened the suitcase, and an old soccer magazine laid on top. I noticed that it was similar to the one Jude had. I opened it, and saw some notes written in it. Especially the keeper pages were filled with words. 1 strong moeve with arm, using upper arm. Pointy thing coming aut of the hand, drill? Furthermore, I read something about a hole and saw an incredibly long motivation speech for a friend named Zeke.

Then I saw a very interesting piece of jewelry. It was a necklace with a charm that you could open. That was of course what I did. It had a little picture in it of three kids. It was a picture of little Jordan sitting on someones back. The grey-haired boy with orange eyes had a big grin on his face. After I stared at him for a few seconds I concluded that it had to be Zel. Then there was a taller boy that looked a bit older. He had orange eyes as well, and black hair tied into a ponytail. 'Dvalin?' I whispered to myself. I put the necklace aside, so I could show it to Jordan later. The last thing in the box was an envelope with Jordan's name on it that I opened. It was a birthday card. The sort that had glitters in it, and you could shake to move them. It also had a big 11 on it.

'Jordan, obviously you know that it is your birthday, so writing 'hurray it's your birthday' is useless. But I wish you a very happy birthday. You are one of my best friends, and I hope that our friendship will last forever. I'm currently using a dictionary and our Japanese schoolbook, so don't worry: This time you won't get a card that Isabella wrote for me. 

Anyway, I do care a lot for you, and I have very much fun with you. Like that time when we were baking a cake for Zeke his birthday and we accidentally set the kitchen on fire. I said that it was you, but you forgave me, right? Or when we pushed Clyde in the pool, or that time we glued glitters on Bryce his face with superglue. I will never forget the cold look he gave us. 

I think I made my point, you mean a lot to me. I hope that you like the  ̶n̶̶e̶̶c̶̶k̶̶l̶̶a̶̶c̶e̶  gift I bought for you.

I didn't know how to feel. It was adorable but weird at the same time. It was a present that Dvalin could never give. I had underestimated their old friendship. 'What are you doing?' Kevin stood in the door opening. I quickly stood up. 'I need to find Jordan,' I told him. 'JORDAAAAAN,' he hysterically shouted. The words echoed through the building. 'YES?' he screamed back from the other side of the base. 'JEEZ, I'M TRYING TO CONCENTRATE,' Sue yelled. 'JORDAN CAN YOU COME TO THE LEFT HALLWAY?' I asked. A few seconds later he stood next to me. 'What did you need me for?' he questioned. I gave him the card and locker without saying a word. His eyes scanned the letter, and while he was reading it, his eyes grew bigger. After he finished with reading he just stared in the distance. The silence was killing me. Then he opened the locker, looked at it for a second and ran away. 'Jordan wait!' Kevin had observed the whole thing with a frown. 'Can someone tell me what's going on?' he asked confused. 'Later,' I told him, and after I said that I headed to the boys changing room.

When I opened the door I saw Jordan sitting in the corner of the room, with his head resting on his knees. 'Hey,' I whispered and he looked up. His eyes were red, and his cheeks were covered in tears. 'Sweetie, what's wrong?' I asked worriedly. I carefully wiped his tears away. 'I-I just miss it so much,' he muttered. I pulled him into a hug. 'I know,' I whispered. It was strange. How could someone's attitude change that much? 'You know, I think that Dave still exists. We just need to remove the Dvalin mask,' mumbled. 'How?' I shrugged. 'By being yourself.' I took the necklace out of his hands. 'There is a big chance that he thinks you hate him. Totally understandable of course, but maybe you have to make clear that you still care.' Then I put the necklace on Jordan. 'And I think that he misses the time before Alius just as much as you do.'
