The score was 1 - 0 with Eito Academy with the lead with 1 point. Raimon got possession of the ball as they started to pass the ball to each other.

"The match resumes with Raimon's kickoff! The point difference is just one point! Can Raimon catch up?!", shouted commentator.

"Ganbatte! Tenma! Shinsuke!", cheered Aoi.

"Show them what you got boys!", cheered Midori.

The ball got stolen immediately by one of Eito's player. Tenma quickly went towards to the person who was dribbling the ball and was about to steal it, but the other person who was dribbling the ball dodged it easily. The ball was then kicked high up to the sky and Shinsuke caught the ball as he jumped into the air and passed it to Shindou.

"Here it comes! Hayato!"

Hayato called Shindou as a signal to pass his ball to him, but in how surprising... Shindou just went to the direction and ignored him. And that's make the three of them surprised of his action, especially Hayato, his mother, and also Haru.

'Shindou Takuto... What are you up to in your mind now?', thought Haru as she questioning herself.

Shindou broke the deal that he had made with that woman from the other day. And now his ball got stolen by the other member from Eito Gakuen. Haru saw Shindou was heading towards the ball, but it looks like he was hesitating to steal the ball from the opponent in front of him. He purposely letting the ball hits him and that makes Haru and Tenma realized of this.

The match ends with a score of 2-0 Eito Gakuen in lead and Raimon hasn't catch the score up. Haruna asked them to rest and took their water bottles as for Haru went back sitting with Tsurugi and smiled. Tsurugi looked at her with a disgust looked as he protested,

"The f*ck, are you sitting here for?"

"Hei, watch out your mouth, Mr.", said Haru pointing his mouth as for Tsurugi glared at her.

"I don't care about my mouth.", said him coldly.

"Ooh~ So you didn't brush your teeth everyday?", mocked Haru.

"You-"

"Why are you all playing like this?!", shouted Tenma as that made Tsurugi cutted off his sentence.

"Sangoku-senpai, Kurumada-senpai, Amagi-senpai, Minamisawa-senpai, Kirino-senpai, Kurama-senpai, Hayami-senpai, Hamano-senpai, Captain! Why won't you fight them seriously??!", yelled Tenma madly.

"Why won't you fight them seriously??!", said Tenma.

"T-Tenma-"

"If you all played seriously. You can break down Eito's defense like a snap! So why?! Why are you holding back?! Are you OK with losing??!", yelled Tenma.

"It's OK to lose."

Haruna has finally spoke and looked at Tenma with a sad looked. Everyone paid attention on her and silent.

"We haven't told you yet... That the score for this match has already been decided to be 3-0 as for Raimon's loss.", said Haruna as she looked down.

"Already been decided?", Tenma questioned.

"What do you mean?", Aoi questioning too.

"You know Fifth Sector right?", asked Haruna.

"Yes, it's the place that manages Japan soccer right?"

"Yes... But they don't just manage it. Fifth Sector also decides the scores for each game and notifies each school a score order whether they win or lose.", explained Haruna again.

"They decide the scores?", questioned Shinsuke.

"Why would they do that?"

"To protect the order."

Suddenly Haru answered them and everyone looked at her.

"Ha-Haru! You already know this??!", questioned Tenma.

"I just found out about this just now.", said Haru as she looked at them.

"As you already know, a school's reputation in these times are based on how strong their soccer is. If it's weak the school isn't even worth looking into. That's why Fifth Sector sent out score orders, so that merit can be fairly divided among schools."

"Fairly?"

"As long as you obey their orders, you'll receive a winning game that'll allow you to adjust your school's reputation."

"That's mean..."

"Everything's fixed!"

"Yes, that's why only a portion of those connected to soccer knew about this. This is the reality behind soccer nowadays.", explained Haru with a serious looked.

"That's wrong! Having scores set from the beginning. That's not soccer!", said Tenma with anger.

"What would you know?!", Shindou snapped.

"You don't know how much we are suffering! Can you imagine how are we feeling when letting the opponent passed us?? Or when Sangoku-San misses the shoots?!"

Tenma frowned after heard his captain and all only he could do is just shut up.

"We also want to play soccer. If we could, we'd go all out playing soccer we love! But if we opposed with Fifth Sector, we'll get soccer taken away from us! That's why we-"

"Ok, that's it. Shindou!", shouted Kirino as he cutted Shindou off before he keeps let out of his anger to Tenma. Tenma was only looked at the ground clenching his fits.

'Tenma...', thought Haru as she looked at Tenma worridly.

"I never knew soccer turned out like this...", said Shinsuke as he looked down. Everyone was going back to their positions as Tenma didn't.

"Hei, Tenma. It's starting.", said Midori as she looked at him. Tenma stood up quietly and went back to his position.

"Both teams are in position! The second half will soon begin! The point difference is 2-0 with Eito Gakuen's lead! Will Raimon ends up losing or catching up using their spirits of ten tenacity??", shouted the announcer excited.

"Will he be alright?", asked Midori.

The second half starts with Eito Gakuen's kickoff and Haru could see that Tenma wasn't moving at all, he was just standing at there in his position.

"Why is he standing there for?", asked Midori.

"Looks like he learned his place.", Tsurugi said smirking.

"Tenma...", Aoi said in concern.

"Here comes the other team challenge! Will Matsukaze will be able to stop him??", said the announcer.

Tenma only stood there and watched the challenger, then he gotten bump by him purposely to make Tenma falls to the ground and he's gotten past Tenma.

"Kantoku, maybe we should send Tenma-kun outside the pitch.", requested Haruna.

"No, we'll keep him there.", said Kudou-kantoku strict.

"But Kantoku..."

The other challenge shoots the ball on the goal and Sangoku used one of his hissatsu, "Burning Catch" to stop it, but again he let's the goal in and Eito Gakuen scores another point again.

"This is wrong...", said Tenma as he looked at the ground.

"Tenma...", Aoi looked at Tenma with a worry look as Tsurugi, he keeps smirking like a demon. Haru can't stand of it, she took one of the soccer ball and kicks it right on Tenma' stomach and that's make the others surprised of Haru's action did even Tsurugi too.

"Ha-Haru! What did you do??", asked Aoi as she looked at Haru.

"Oi! Tenma! Is this how you play?? IS THIS HOW YOU PLAY SOCCER??!", shouted Haru angrily to Tenma and that makes Tenma surprised.

"Listen you fool! I'd never saw you play soccer so helpless! Tenma who I know is cheerful, hard worker, and never give up! He always shows how love he is of football! But now! Look at you! You are pointless! This is not Tenma I known!", yelled Haru at him. Tenma looked at her surprised plus realized of what she had said.

"Tenma!", shouted Haru again.

"Sakka Yarouze!"

Tenma surprised of Haru's last words, he realized that this is not soccer what was he playing just now and this is wrong. Tenma suddenly makes a move and steals the ball that's make the others gasped of shocked at Tenma's action.

"Captain!" Tenma passed to Shindou, but missed it.

"Captain! Captain! Captain!", Tenma kept passing the ball while calling out Shindou's name.

"Captain!"

Finally Tenma's voice was able to reach Shindou, Shindou widen his eyes and caught the ball with his leg and shoots it towards the goalpost and scores! Everyone in the team was shocked.

"GOAL!!!! RAIMON FINALLY WRESTLERS ONE POINT FROM EITO GAKUEN!!!!", shouted the announcer excited. Tenma, Shinsuke, Aoi, Midori, Akane, and Haru were all excited after they have finally scored one point excepted for the others. As for Haruna, she was in shocked even Tsurugi too. But the game is over, in the lead Eito Gakuen's victory with a score of 3-1. Kirino approached Shindou no... the others approached Shindou with unbelieve look until Kurama asked him.

"Shindou, why you kick the ball in?"

And the unexpected answer replied by Shindou,

"He-His ball was urging me to do it.", said Shindou made the others confused of his reason.

"Urging you?", questioned Kuramada. And then Shindou explained to them.

"His ball was telling me to face soccer straight on.", explained Shindou as he also don't believing himself.

"Is that why you made the shoot?" This time it is Sangoku was questioning to him.

The others didn't expected these words will come out from their own captain's mouth and they all looked at Tenma who was very happy with the managers and also his bestfriend, Shinsuke.

"You did it! You are the best!"

"I knew I had an eye of this things!", said Midori proud of herself and that makes Tenma, Aoi, and Shinsuke laught even Haru too.

"Hei! You guys are laughing to much! I'm older than you, you know!", scolded Midori.

"But, I'm kinda disappointed that Haru not join us on the match.", said Tenma as he upset.

"Me either.", said Shinsuke too. Until Haru doesn't have a word to cheer them up.

"Awww~ Don't worry I'm sure Haru will play on the other matches.", said Haruna who appeared from no where makes Haru surprised of this sudden appearance.

"Really??" Both of them looked at Haruna with hope that Haru will be playing on the other matches and Haruna replied "yes" and that's made the managers, Tenma, and Shinsuke are happy to hear that. But Haru didn't care at all, in her though... she will say "Up to you if you want to bench me or not." Or she will say "Whatever" or in the case, she also will say... the mostly... "Oh." One word "Oh". Really really spend word in her thinking. "Oh" it's a perfect answer without saying many words. Talking about the words, Haru noticed that Tsurugi went away from the bench and went out to somewhere. First of all, Haru didn't care all, but cause of her biggest curiosity, Haru quickly follows that navy blue haired guy and left her friends confused there. This is so her personality... "Curious" it is one of her first personality to be honest. When Haru was out from the soccer match stadium, she can't find Tsurugi anymore. She cursed herself and in her though she said,

'Dammit, where is he??'

Haru scratched her head which is not itchy at all and kept looking everywhere to see any signs of Tsurugi. But at the end result, she can't find him at all and ended up she went back to the others.

~Time skip~

The match is ended with 3-1 and the chairman of Raimon decided to fire Kudou in order to keep his position in school and this is what happened...

While Shindou heard the news from Sangoku about Kudou-kantoku, he rushed back to the school and pasted Haru who was walking way to her house. Haru noticed him and wonder why his captain were rushing about until she asked Sangoku about what's Shindou up to and Sangoku explained everything about Kudou-kantoku and also why Shindou were rushing. After Haru heard all explanations detail from her senpai, she also rushed back or followed Shindou to the school and after she finally arrived, she saw Kudou-kantoku leaving the school and Shindou called him, but the coach just ignored him and walked away.

Haru went to coach and left Shindou who stood there to see coach's leaving.

"Kantoku!", called Haru to Kudou and Kudou-kantoku turned around and saw Haru who were hesitating, she can't talk yet cause she's out of breathing cause of running so fast to here. Until Kudou told her,

"I'm counting on you to protect the soccer, Chisel.", said Kantoku as he walked away. Haru surprised after she heard what just he called her just now.

"Wa-wait! Come back! Kudou-kantoku!" Haru chased Kudou-kantoku from behind, but when Kudou kantoku went to the nearby, suddenly he's gone. That's make Haru shocked of suddenly vanish Kudou is. But Haru sure that Kantoku were hiding somewhere, but she didn't search or look for him.

"Kantoku! I promised I will protect soccer! You have my words!", said Haru to let Kantoku to hear that.

Haru went away from there and saw that Shindou also rushed to here and asked her.

"Where is Kudou Kantoku?"

Haru told him that Kudou-kantoku is already went away and that's made him upset mixed dissapointed. And after that when the captain informed the team, they were all sad, especially Tenma because they felt as if it was his fault.

Haru was in though after what was Kudou-kantoku called her just now. In her mind, she questioned herself.

'How did he find out?'

That's made Haru feels uneasy of this. Until she had a plan to send a message to Kudou-kantoku to meet her at the Cafe tomorrow after the school is over and slacked off from the club. There are many questions she wanted to ask to Kudou-kantoku and she also need explanation from him.

Near the steel tower, Kudou met with an unknown guy talking with him about something important that could save soccer for good and he also gives him a piece of paper to that guy and it is a detail privacy people. That guy took it and asked Kudou kantoku what is it about. And then that guy read it and surprised after he read this...

"Kirisaki Chitose, the daughter of Mark Kruger and Kirisaki Hana."

Who is that guy?

Who is Kirisaki Chitose?

Why Haru felt uneasy when Kudou-kantoku called her "Chisel"?

Who is Chisel to Haru?

Who is Chisel to Kudou-kantoku?

And what's Haru's secret?

There are still hundreds of question marks to be answered.

And it's all still a mystery...
