The Fate we Choose (Inazuma Eleven GO/CS/Galaxy)

Chapter 39 Miria's Smile

After a moment of silence the crowd started clapping then cheered.

Shirabe: "Amazing..."

Midori: "What was that...?"

Erena: "Her aura changed."

The girls turned to Erena who suddenly appeared.

Shirabe: "Erena-san!"

Aoi: "What do you mean by changed?"

Erena: "Change might be the wrong word more like evolved."

Akane: "I'm sure... It changed after that ball of feathers appeared..."

Erena: "Yes. It's called Progression Aura. The aura changes based on the person."
(Also I'm reading this off the Wiki of the Anime from this live lol)

Akane: "I wonder if I have an aura."

Erena: "Everyone does. They're shown different however... There are so many mysteries in life."

Shirabe: "... The words, "Never give up", will show you the way, huh?"

Aoi: "Eh?"

Shirabe: "The lyrics to that song is beautiful."

Midori: "Wait, were those words from the song?"

Shirabe: "Yes."

Midori: "Wow you listen closely don't you?"

Shirabe: "Of course!"

Erena: "... Now then I think it's about time."

Akane: "Time?"

Miria: "Everyone! Thank you!"

Fan: "Everyone the signal!"

Fan: "Right, right!"

Miria: "Eh?"

Miria looked up and then the fans all raised their glow sticks high.

Girls: "Wow!"

When all the glow sticks were raised... there were words spelled out.

Fans: "Thank you! We love you!"

Miria covered her mouth and had tears in her eyes.

Miria: "Everyone..."

Miria wiped her tears away and smiled then she started running towards the front of the stage.

Miria: *breathes* "I love you too!"

Aoi and Shirabe: !

Aoi: "That's...!"

Midori: "What the...!"

Akane: "W...Wings?"

Shirabe: "Pretty... she really looks like an Angel..."

Erena: "Have you guys seen this?"

Aoi: "Yes..."

Erena: "... I see. This too is a part of Miria's aura."

Shirabe: "This too?"

Erena: "Yes... after all auras can take form to anything you want."

Aoi: "I see..."

*After the show*

Miria POV

That was so much fun...!

I finished changing out of my dress and then was getting ready to leave.

Ah... but...

"Now I can't stay in Japan anymore..."

*Knock Knock*

"Ah! Come in!"

When I turned to the door...

"Mama!"

I quickly stood up. The two of us were silence for a while until Mom spoke again.

Erena: "That was a wonderful live today, Miria."

"Thank you..."

Erena: "You always smiled for my sake didn't you?"

"Eh?"

Erena: "I'm sorry... I put such a burden on you..."

"Mama..."

I shook my head.

"No... It's true I did smile because I didn't want you to worry..."

I looked down.

"But.... I wanted to see you smile, Mom..."

Erena: !

"After all... seeing other people smile, makes me smile too!"

Erena: "Miria..."

Mom gave me a sad smile then she walked up to me and...

!

...Gave me a hug.

"Mama...?"

Erena: "Endou-san was right..."

"Eh?"

Erena: "That smile that you showed during that soccer match..."

Against Gas's

Erena: "It was the same as back then."

Mom pulled away and looked at me.

Erena: "You always smiled that way... when you were with Papa and Mari."

"Always...?"

Erena: "You probably don't remember... But it meant a lot for me..."

Mom...

Erena: "...The soccer right now is very dangerous."

"...I know. But I don't care. I... I want to bring back the soccer that Papa used to love."

I looked at Mom.

"And... thanks to Tenma, I remembered something."

Erena: "Tenma-san?"

"I... I promise Mari. That I would play for both of our sakes."

Erena: "...For both sakes..."

"Plus... I don't want to regret it. Regret trying to get our real soccer back, regret all the times I've spent here with everyone..."

Erena: "... You truly have become one of them, haven't you?"

"Hehe... Yeah."

Erena: *Breathes* "Okay."

"Mama?"

Erena: "I want you to be happy... so..."

Mom looked me in the eye.

Erena: "...You can stay here."

"What..."

I look at Mom in surprise.

Erena: "I'm not 100 percent sure about this to be honest... the soccer right now isn't the best..."

"We'll bring it back!"

Erena: "Miria..."

"And... I want, I want Mari to wake up knowing that our beloved soccer is back."

Erena: "... I see."

Mom started patting my head.

Erena: "Just promise me you'll be careful."

"... Okay."

I hugged Mom back tightly.
