A/N: The title means, "The Unexpected Wind, just so you know. Also, skipping the first half of the match and the rest xD
***********************************************

The first half ended with England having a two point lead, but at least we got a point thanks to Someoka's, "Dragon Slayer". Good move... I'll add a mental note that I'd copy it.  Also, we were astounded by their other hissatsu tactics, "Invincible Lance". It consisted of players that would surround Edgar, protecting him if he had the ball. None of us were able to get near Edgar, and he used his other move, "Paladin Strike", and that's how they got the two point lead...

"You did great there, Rena!" Rosa exclaimed. 

"I was gonna use Illusion Ball, but nah." I chuckled.

"But... it's surprising to see you play soccer after what Coach said..." Aki said, giving me a worried glance.

"I told you guys; I'm scared, but I'm hanging." I said, smiling. 

Soon we had the strategy meeting; Akio and Kidou are going to be the game commanders for the second half. Me, Hijikata, and Jousuke were benched because Akio, Kogure, and Jirou will be placed in. I didn't really complain, but Jirou was insisting I would play until the second half. 

I was on the bench again with the others, a notebook and pencil in my hand as I began writing (and drawing) the techniques I had witnessed in this match. When the whistle blew, that's when I stopped and looked;

They were doing "Invincible Lance". Fudou glanced at Kazemaru and Kidou glanced at Jirou. Since Kazemaru and Jirou were at the front... they just, suddenly moved out of the way, leaving a huge gap in front of the goal. What were they planning? Meh. I'll find out...

"Tobitaka, aim for the moment they shoot!" I heard Akio commanded. What for?

Hold on.. On one side, there was Hiroto, Jirou, and Kidou, whilst on the other, Toramaru, Kazemaru, and Akio...

When I saw that the others players forming the hissatsu techniques had split Hiroto, Jirou, Toramaru, and Kazemaru moved, as if... blocking them... Kogure was about to steal it, but Edgar had dodged that, but when Tobitaka used "Shinkuma", the ball was stolen.

"I got it." Rosa said. Whoa... That was fast. I was already looking and I couldn't get it.

"Get what?" Jousuke asked.

"They waited for the moment of the shoot to occupy the guarding players, then they stole the ball." Rosa looked at him and smiled. Huh. Nice work Akio, Kidou. 

The ball was kicked to Kogure, who kicked it to Hiroto, who kicked it to Tobitaka, who passed it Kazemaru... then to Jirou, back to Tobitaka, then to Kogure... Hmm... I drew the form of their formation.

"It's as if they were dual typhoons

"It's as if they were dual typhoons..." I muttered. 

"Dual typhoons?" Fuyuka asked.

"Cool name for the hissatsu tactic." I said.

"WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS AHEAD OF ME?!" Megane asked in frustration. All of used sweat dropped.

Hiroto did, "Meteor Blade V2", but was stopped by the move, "Galatyn".  But it didn't matter. Soon we were tied by two points thanks to Toramaru's technique, in which Megane named, "Gladius Arch". Cool name though. 

"Switch players!"

Kogure was swapped in for me... weird... I was nervous again as I got on the pitch, but that never mattered. 

"Rena!" Akio kicked the ball to me and I ran forward. Dang. They had to block Shuuya and Someoka... I guess I'll have to do this on my own.

"Take this!"

When I kicked the ball, I felt a strong gust of wind and it went faster. Unfortunately it was stooped by "Galatyn" again.. weird. What was that just now? 

The ball was thrown to one of the players but I had caught it and passed it to Akio, but Edgar had got it. Luckily, Endou had stopped, "Excalibur" by using a technique that made the ball actually miss the goal... Megane named it, "Ijigen the Hand". Another cool name... In the end we won, 3-2. Alright!!!

But still...

What was that wind that I felt?

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"A day off?"

"Yeah, you went up early. Wanna go out?"

I gave a look at Akio. "You, asking me out?"

"Your brother went balistic." Akio sighed. "Come on. It's just a walk then you can do whatever you like... by the way. I saw that technique from my uncle. Cool imitation, Neko-chan~"

"Damare... Daburuhairaito..." I said, blushing. "And why Neko-chan?"

Akio had the red tinge now. "Uh...Sore wa anata no taitoru ni itchi shi, neko wa kawaīdesu..."

"Damare." I said.

"Naze?"

"Damare, Akio."

"Gomen."

"Tch."

Anyway... we did go around Liocott for a while. He actually treated me to some food, and bought me a new notebook. He said I can use it for other purposes. On the way we met up with Kidou, Jirou, and Kazemaru. So, the five of us stopped at nearby cafe.

"Our first match... And we won it." Kazemaru said.

"Yeah." Kidou took a sip from his drink. (he just ordered water...)

"Say, I have a question." Akio started. "You didn't notice the force of wind earlier?"

"Actually, I did." Jirou said. "It felt unexpected. I was hoping it'd be ice."

"Now that you think about it, it looked like a tornado." Kidou said.

"The unexpected wind..." I muttered. "I guess that was my close goal to making my own hissatsu technique."

"You tried making one before right?" Jirou asked.

"And ended up falling in a ditch." Kidou chuckled.

"Damare." I muttered.
