Third POV:

Everyone arrived at the area where the match is gonna be held. The Raimon eleven went to the changing room and wore their soccer uniforms. After changing, everyone went to the field and went into formation.

After Tenma finished doing some warm-ups. Ryan went to him.

"I guess I was right, huh, " he said.

"I hope we have a great match, Ryan, " Tenma said.

"Make it interesting cause after this, I never wanted to see you again, " Ryan said he then turned around and was about to walk away when he said, "keep in mind we're not friends, monster."

Tenma couldn't help but feel kinda upset about this. Some of Tenma's friends saw this and we're rather confused.

As Haruto dribbles forth, he dodges Minamisawa and Shindou, he then passes the ball to Bryan.

He then passes the ball to Kageyama, but Ryan did a cut and steals the ball. He lands on the ground and dribbles towards the goal, then Kariya goes in front of him and blocks the way. But just as Kariya was about to use his hissatsu 'Hunter's Net', Ryan immediately passes the ball to Ace. He was near the goal, so when he received the ball, he uses his hissatsu. He kicks the ball up to the air and when he was about to kick it, six missile launchers appear beside him and when he kicked the ball, the missile launchers fired. Sangoku uses his hissatsu 'Fence of Gaia' to block it, but it was unsuccessful.

Ryan's teammates then blocked everyone's way, leaving the field a little wide open for an attack. Ryan dodged the rest and was getting near to the goal, he then uses his hissatsu. He kicks the ball up in the air and he jumps. He then does a side kick and a white and yellow sword-like beam came. Tenma manages to slip past the person blocking him and he went in front to block it. Tenma then brings out his avatar 'Majin Pegasus Arc' and he kicks the shoot to block it. He manages to block it and sends the ball flying up into the air. He made his avatar disappear and Ryan and Tenma jumped up to the air to steal the ball.

They were about to kick it when they heard a large explosion. The two of them land on the ground. Everyone was confused about where that explosion came from. They then spot smoke in the air and they were shocked. The smoke was coming from the town. The match was stopped and everyone ran to the town to see what happened.

When they arrived they were frightened and shocked by the sight. The town was destroyed, buildings were destroyed or were on fire, the stands were a wreck, and there were people that were injured. Help hasn't arrived yet, so everyone went to help the people. Tenma saw a mother and a child under some fallen wood. He lifted the boards since it was not that heavy and helped the two. He then saw Ryan trying to lift some rubble and boards, he was having trouble. Tenma then recognized that was Ryan's house.

Tenma's POV:

I went to help Ryan and he saw me.

"I'll help," I said.

The two of us started to lift the rubble out of the way and it was so heavy. I had no choice. I transformed and my wolf ears and tail appeared. Ryan seemed shocked.

"How did you," he said.

"No time to explain, let's lift this," I said.

After a few seconds, we managed to lift the rubble out of the way. Ryan helped his mother and father. We saw the ambulance has finally arrived and Ryan brought his family to the ambulance. I helped other people and it seemed that was everyone.

I then realized something, I looked in the direction of my home and I started to have a bad feeling.

"Oh no," I said in my mind. I started to run to my house and when I arrived, I saw it was destroyed.

I started to search for my mother and I saw her body under some boards and rubble. I tried to lift the rubble on her, but it was too heavy. No one was close by, so I have to use it. I started to focus my energy to use my powers. A white aura started to surround the boards and the rubble and it was starting to slowly float. When it was high enough, I moved them aside. I took some breathes and I went to my mother. I put her head on my arms and I felt her pulse, it was slow. I lifted her up and went to the ambulance. Everyone double checked that was everyone that was hurt and it was. I might have been Nemesis that attacked the town. Since I was a family member of my mother, I rode in the ambulance.

~At the hospital~

I was sitting in the chair and waiting for the doctor to come out.

"Tenma," I heard someone said. I looked and it was my friends, coach Endou, coach Kidou, and Otonashi sensei. I stood up.

"We were worried where you went," Aoi said.

"How is she?" Shindou asked.

"I don't know, I haven't been told yet," I replied feeling worried about my mother.

The doctor then came out, I was feeling worried about what might happen.

"How is she sir?" I asked.

"I'm sorry, but she won't be able to make it," the doctor said. I was shocked and sad.

"Can I see her please?" I asked.

"Yeah, she also wanted to talk to you," he replied.

"Arigato," I said and I went in.

The door closed and I saw my mother lying on the bed. I went beside her, she opened her eyes.

"Mother," I said as I felt the tears coming out.

"I-I'm sorry I wasn't there to p-protect you if I was you wouldn't have been," I said as my tears started to form.

I then felt her hold my hand. I looked at her.

"I was the one who is supposed to apologize," she said in a weak and soft voice, I was confused and shocked.

"I'm sorry I couldn't protect when you were young, the day you went missing, I couldn't save you. When your uncle would hurt you, I couldn't kick him out. It was my fault you went through that," she said. Causing me and her to tear up. I didn't know what to say, but when I was about to say it wasn't she said it before me.

"I know you think it wasn't my fault. My time is running out, but can you please promise me something," she said. I nodded in response. She then smiled.

"Promise me you would stay strong and live on ok?" she said.

"I will, I promise," I said. My mother then closed her eyes and was still smiling.

"Mother?" I asked and then heard the heart monitor. I then realized she was gone. I fell on my knees and started to silently cry.

"No," I mumbled as I continued to silently cry.
