Special! The Strongest Army Ogre Attacks Part Two!

A/N: OK PART TWO OF THIS I AM READY FOR IT!!! (also lowkey self-advertising: Please read "Before The Drill"!)

========================================

They go up on the field again. Ogre's kickoff. The whistle blew and two of the forwards run up. Shuuya and the others didn't move an inch, much like Ogre did. When Kidou sees a chance, he does a sliding and steals the ball, kicking it to Ichinose. He, Asuka, and Endou run up with ease.

"The Phoenix!"

"Needle Hammer!"

The goalkeeper's hand sparks up and electric waves surround it, stopping the flaming ball in it's tracks. They quickly run, and that's when the momentum changes.

"Death Rain!"

Two futuristic-looking cannons pop up on the ground, stopping Asuka in his tracks. The cannons had six soccer balls. Including the one that the forward has, it was seven. Once he kicks it, the balls were surrounded in a dark aura. The six balls were heading towards Handa and the others and the seventh one was aiming at Endou. God Hand didn't even stop it, and the defense were already on the ground, groaning in pain.

I clenched my fists in fear. Kuroi started shaking again.

This was worse than what Zeus did to my brother.

Kageno, Shishido, and Shourinji were subbing for Handa, Kurimatsu, and Matsuno.

Whistle blows. Our kickoff. Before the ball could even reach Shuuya two players already stopped him. One of them kicked it to their captain, who kicks it in the air as the ball hits Someoka. Kidou and the rest go the back to at least tighten the defense.

"Death Spear!"

The ball was heading towards the goal in a ridiculously high place, and surrounding it was an even darker aura in the shape of a spear head that was spinning like a drill. Kidou and the others were blown away, and Endou's Majin the Hand had failed completely.

"Rena, Kuroi," Kuroi flinches as Coach Hibiki calls our names. Shishido. Shourinji and Kageno were injured, and so we were up next.

"I'm admitting this: I'm scared." Kuroi gulps, clutching something that was onto his neck.

"You're not the only one." I retort, a wave of unease crashing over me.

As soon as we got in the field, it was all kinds of hell. Ogre beating us to a pulp. Kuroi almost fell unconscious because of two strong kicks. I was close to getting injured legs due to the sliding attempts I try to dodge. Only five minutes had passed when most of us were already on the ground.

My vision was starting to blur, but I wasn't going to go black just yet... I hope.

"Endou Mamoru. Abandon soccer. Look, your frivolous soccer, the passion in your words, those are the things that are hurting your friends." I hear the captain say. I clutch on the grass with the remaining strength I have. How could soccer do that anyway? I get that rivalry was going to be on the list and that there were going to be dirty tricks to it, but a simple sport?

"Shut up, Ogre! We're here to player soccer! If you're going to hit something, hit the goal!" Endou shouts at him. God I hope he doesn't get seriously injured. He already had enough hand injuries to block some strong shoots and even then he was still going on.

"I will remove you from this place." I see the ball roll at the captain's feet. "If you don't want that, abandon soccer!"

He kicks it high again, and the same spear-like drill appears. I close my eyes, facing the worst. 'Please don't fall.'

"Rena...!" I feel my arms were being lifted up. I see Kuroi holding them, as if he was hoisting me up. He points to the goal, and there was someone who had spiky green hair wearing a red headband like Endou with a matching jersey with hints of white.

The boy bows at Endou. "It's nice to meet you, Great-Grandpa."

I blink, my mouth agape. "What did he just call Endou?" I face Kuroi, who was also giving a shocked expression. He then shook his head. "Rena, sidelines." He says to me. I manage to stand up and the both of us actually get to the benches without falling down or something.

"I'm Endou Kanon." The boy introduces. "I came here to fight on your side. As Endou Mamoru's Great-Grandson!" The resemblance is uncanny. Kanon looks like our captain.

"Great-Grandson?!" Endou was taken aback. "This is really out of the blue..."

"This is real, right?" Kuroi looks at him in disbelief. Kanon looks at him, smiling at him before saying, "Yup!" He then takes something out of his jersey and shows it to Endou: It was an old notebook that looked burnt and had been buried under a ditch for months. Endou takes a look at it before saying, "This is grandpa's notebook! It's the real thing, and it even has the notes I wrote!"

"Focusing energy below your navel is the basic of the basics!" Kanon says proudly.

"Y-You can read my writing?!" Endou asks in complete disbelief.

"It looks like he's someone trustworthy." Kidou says, smiling a bit as he puts a hand on Endou's shoulder.

"I believe him too." Shuuya says to him.

"Let's go along with him." Kazemaru chimes in.

"I've been keeping a watch on you, Great-Grandpa." Kanon says and we all turn to him. "But I'm so sorry I'm so late when it actually counts."

"When it counts?" I ask him.

"This match." Kanon turns to Team Ogre. "Too bad for you, Team Ogre! I won't let you go around changing history anyway you like it!"

So... Ogre and Kanon came from a distant future. Does this mean that we've been fighting with the weight of the weight of the world in our hands? I panic a little in my head now.

"What can a single person like you do?" The captain asks mockingly.

"I'm not alone." Kanon says with confidence. Yup. Definitely Endou's grandson. "The reason I'm late is because I needed to gather the strongest allies ever!" He looks up to the sky. "Guys, come on out!"

There were five dots that formed a pentagon started glowing. As it shone, I could swear that I heard somewhat of a shattering sound. Five people were falling down from the sky and landed in a graceful manner: One had white hair and was wearing a soccer team's jacket ("Be like the wind! Fubuki Shirou from Hakuen Jr. High!"). The second one was holding a big lunch carrier ("Here's your order! Utsonomiya Toramaru from Japan's national team, Inazuma Japan!"). The third one looked like a delinquent ("And Tobitaka Seiya!"). The fourth one had red hair and was wearing casual clothes ("Previously from Aliea Academy's Genesis, Kiyama Hiroto!"). The fifth one was wearing a soccer team jacket as well. ("Italy's national team, Orpheus! Fidio Aldena!").

We all stare in shock at this, and Shirou was the one to break the silence. "Nice to see you, captain. Actually, all of us here know you already."

"In other words, they're friends that you'll be meeting in the future---" Kanon looks at them worriedly. "Wait, where's--?"

"The Duality of Teikoku Gakuen, Kouji!" Kanon's sentence was cut off when a boy landed in front him: It was the same guy I saw a few weeks ago. "You from before!" I shout, pointing at him. Kanon sighs in relief. "We went looking for you." Shirou chuckles at him.

"Allow me to clear up a little." Kouji looks at us. "I'm Muramasa Kouji. You'll meet me again in ten years."

"Again in ten years?" I raise an eyebrow.

"You'll meet me soon, but for now you're looking at an older version." Kouji smiles. 

"Anyway," Kanon clears his throat. "In other words, they're friends that you'll be meeting in the future. They all love soccer, so they came here to help!"

I look at the players, and instantly Fideo makes eye contact while Shirou was talking. "Surprised?" He asks teasingly.

I heat up. Kuroi looks at me, then at him, then back at me with a smirk. "Oh, right! The player you totally had a crush on because---!" I clamp his mouth shut. This was something I wanted to forget, actually. Not to mention I made a mention of him earlier. Yikes...

"Leave this to us, guys." Kouji says to all of us, giving a determined grin. I stare at him, widening my eyes a little, but I gave a soft smile. "You better not let us down, kiddo. Our else you'll get a huge lecture later on." I joke, and Kouji only laughs. "I just had a lecture earlier. Don't bother in

And soon afterwards, the new players take their spots. Kuroi and I were benched so that meant we were leaving the rest up to them. Seeing as they come from a near future, it'll be something worth to see.

The whistle blows. Ogre's kickoff. Once the captain had kicked the ball two forwards had already run up with speed faster than my brother and Kazemaru's combined. Kidou and Toramaru immediately blocked the player who got the ball, but instantly dodged. Toramaru followed the player and did a sliding, getting the ball in the process.

"That guy's good." Kuroi whistles. "But I'm better." 

"Tiger Drive!" Toramaru kicks the ball with such strength as a yellow aura surrounds it followed by a tiger getting close behind. In seconds I see Kouji running up alone as two players start to block him.

"Emperor Penguin no. 4!" Kouji whistles as the ball gets close enough for him to kick the ball.  White-colored penguins follow behind it, combining the yellow aura with a pink aura closing in. Whoa, whoever this kid belongs too, his parents are lucky.

"Needle Hammer!" The goalkeeper uses the same technique but fails in an instant. Kuroi jumps up in happiness, only to wince once he lands down. 

Ogre's kickoff again, and this time Shirou's the one who the stole the ball. "Wolf Legend!" He kicks the ball with more power, this time a head of a wolf following behind. The ball heads to Shuuya, and does a shoot chain. "Maximum Fire!" Fire surrounds his foot and transfers it to the ball, making it even stronger.

The goalkeeper does cutting motions and I see blue static with each slice. "Electric Trap!" The technique doesn't work and the keeper stops the ball. He throws it at his teammate and Fidio intercepts it with a back flip.

"Nice one, Fidio!" I cheer. The managers look at me and Kuroi gives me a sly look. At the moment I didn't care because soon Fidio was surrounded by two players. He puts the ball in between his feet and passes it to Hiroto, who passes it to Kanon. Kanon kicks it, and the ball stops midway. He instantly runs and positions himself like he was a cannonball. "God Cannon!" He kicks the ball with both feet as a bright aura of power surrounds it. The shoot gets past "Electric Trap", and we earn another point.

"We're winning this!" Kuroi pumps his fist in the air. "If we're meeting these guys in the future, then I sure hope that we'll play like this again!"

Ogre's kickoff. The two players pass the ball to their captain and he goes into high speed, kicking the ball directly to Kanon's stomach. The two players follow him and along with the captain, they start hurting him. Kidou, Fidio and Kouji try stopping them only to get hit by huge blows.

The captain once again kicks the ball, but Kazemaru dives in and blocks the attack with his head, much like he did during the practice match. Kazemaru, Kanon and Fidio then run up ahead with the ball in Kazemaru's possession. He kicks the ball to Fidio once he got blocked by one of the defenders.

"Odin Sword!" There. The first technique I ever copied. Three gold circles written in an ancient language surrounds him and kicks the ball as a sword-like shape engulfs it. The ball heads for Kanon, and he uses "God Cannon", making a shoot chain.

"Now I know why you like him." Kuroi blinks in astonishment. "That Italian's amazing!"

"High Voltage!" The keeper suddenly has two small players in his hands, making the shoot encounter an electric shock wave similar to Koujirou's "Power Shield".

The keeper kicks it to their teammate, and that same teammate kicks the ball directly into Kouji's stomach. Fidio and the others were already starting to get worn out as Ogre attacks like they're in a warzone.

"Death Spear!"

"Shinkuuma!" Tobitaka moves up as he does a kick and dark gusts of wind surround the spear shoot. He kicks it to Kanon and along with Toramaru and the others, they run up. The ball gets to Hiroto and he kicks the ball in the air and he follows suit. "Meteor Blade!" He kicks the ball in a high place as multiple circle-shaped aura surrounds it, almost like a meteor would.

"Prime Legend!" Kidou and Shuuya go up in the air as the ball heads to them, and kicks it with a blue power wave surrounding it.

"Hope you saved room for another one!" Kouji runs fast, dodging the upcoming players that were going to block him. "Emperor Penguin no. 4!" He manages to catch up to the ball and kicks it. I have never seen a shoot chain that had three hissatsu techniques combined. I only widen my eyes in astonishment, seeing that the impossible was already happening right in front of me.

The strong shoot gets past "High Voltage". We were tied with Ogre.

That didn't seem to make the captain more enraged.

"We will not accept defeat!" He runs up with the two main forwards and kicks the ball in the air. Kuroi tugs on my arm as he looks at it in fear. "This is scary. Extremely scary." 

"Death Break!" They kick the ball, now surrounded by spikes and a menacing aura. It blows away the others on the field. Endou was the only one standing, and at the last minute....

"Omega the Hand!" A giant hand grabs the dark ball. It was seeing "God Hand", but it was much more of a golden color and larger. He stops it.

There was silence...

Then the whistle blows.

"The match is over!" The announcer shouts through the microphone. "At three to two, Raimon wins the championship!"

We all cheer happily. No, that word was an understatement. I don't know what word would be appropriate but I'm glad we won!

Then, a dark beam surrounds all of Team Ogre just as the captain was about to shake Endou's hand. Me and Kuroi quickly run over to the pitch as Endou turns to give thanks to Kanon. Kouji was clutching his stomach but he was smiling.

Hey, he's smiling like me. I never really noticed it but he smiles like me.

A light aura lands down, surrounding Hiroto and the others. Kouji only looks at me before his gaze softens. "Dad always talked about mom being really beautiful." Endou and the others look at him. Kouji's face changes into a closed eye smile. "He's right. You really are beautiful."

He and Kanon go to the beam, and they all disappear like a shooting star at appears on rare nights.

---------------------------------Caravan Ride----------------------------------

"I still can't believe it. That Kanon came from the future." Kurimatsu says out of the blue. We look at him. I was chatting with Otonashi and Kino when he suddenly brought it up. "He really loves soccer. So I believe him. Someone who loves soccer can't be a bad guy!" Endou says to them.

"Sounds like he'd say the same thing." Kuroi says, leaning against his seat.

"There's only one way to confirm whether Kanon came from the future or not." Kidou says to us, his arms crossed as usual. 

"What way is that?" Someoka asks.

"Live a long life." Kidou answers. "To see your great-grandson born."

Everyone goes into immediate shock. As for me, I was still thinking about what Kouji had said before leaving.

"Dad always talked about mom being really beautiful. He's right. You really are beautiful."

"Rena?" Shuuya pats my shoulder, making me snap out of my thoughts. "That Kouji guy, he did look like you. His smile was even similar to yours."

Kuroi only snickers at this. "She gets married in a couple of years. It's no surprise to that."

"He said that I'll meet him soon, right?" I breathe in a sigh. "Can't wait for it."

---------------------------------------10 Year Timeskip------------------------------------

"Kouji?" A boy around the age of fifteen turns around to his father, holding a photo album. "A photo album? When did you find it?" Kouji asks, hiding his excitement as his father sits down on the couch next to him. "Your mom and I did spring cleaning. She said I can get a few pictures to have them framed." He says to him, opening the album.

There were pictures of Raimon Jr. High, along with Teikoku Gakuen. What followed were multiple Inazuma Japan pictures and his father's high school moments. "Hey, there's you and mom." Kouji pointed at a Polaroid picture which shown a younger version of his father and mother, linking arms under a cherry blossom tree. It looked like they were laughing.

"It's funny, you know?" Kouji looks at his father, who was chuckling. "Me and your mother used to hate each other. But then you and Rushe came... heh, we started going out after a year."

"I wanna see a favorite photo." Kouji says, flipping two pages of the album. 

"Akio, have you found the pictures you wanted?"

"Rena, we only looked at a few pictures. You can't expect to find good ones." Kouji looked up to see his mother with her arms crossed, smiling. "And yet you look at our Liocott photo?" She teasingly asks.

"I like it, mom." Kouji defended.

"Well," Akio carefully takes out the Polaroid. "Looks like we'll have this framed, won't we?"

On that photo was an eleven-year-old Kouji and a nine-year-old Rushe, smiling happily. Fudou Akio and Sakuma Rena were smiling as well, holding the two kids like they were their own. Then again, that photo was taken the day that the two finally had custody to adopt them.

"So... when are you getting married again?" Kouji asks teasingly, causing the two adults to blush a dark red.

Well, despite having custody, the two still weren't married... for now.

==============================
