Synopsis

As a child I was often asked what I would do If I had superpowers. It was obvious what most people would do with such power. Even at my age I knew some people would use them to wrong others for either their own benefit or pleasure. Like any Child I knew some would choose to be a Superhero and that some would choose to save the world in another way. However my answer was always the same "Use it to become the Best Football Player In The Whole World!" And Since 5 years ago I thought could really have a chance at doing this. Problem is it seems a lot of people had the same answer as me but now it's time for me to fulfill my dream.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a football field in a Japanese School, there are two teams on the pitch. The Home Team had Red Jerseys on and were from Borujuku High while the Away Team had Blue Jerseys on and were from Kazekura High. 

The Home Team had a 4-3-3 formation with two Strikers, one of them being Nozotsuki Kousuke, a 5 foot 6, 18-year-old boy with short messy brown hair, Hazel Eyes and a lean build. The Other Striker was Suzuki Ren who was the same age and also had a lean build but had short combed-back black hair and darker eyes and was 5 foot 7.

Kousuke would dribble with the ball rushing forward past the players in the Away Team as he would notice 3 defenders at the back.

Kousuke- They're going for a 3-4-3 for lots of defiance and potential for a counterattack. If we lose the ball it could prove a huge problem.

Two defenders rush to his position blocking him off, one to the right and one to the left to which Kousuke stops and looks to his right where he sees Ren.

Kousuke (shouting): Ren! Let's do a 1 2!

Kousuke curves a pass to Ren who gathers it easily as the Defender to Kousuke's right couldn't react to the pass. Kousuke tries to slip past the defense but isn't able to. 

Defender 1 (the one to the right): Did you really think we'd let you through?

Defender 2 (the one to the left): Yeah you spilled your plan to everyone already.

Kousuke: 2 down only 1 to go.

Kousuke- We're both strikers, while I'd love to get the goal myself, if that's not possible there's no one else I'd trust to score than you. You feel the same way. Right, Ren?

The defenders look back in shock to see Ren pushing forward despite his lack of support.

Defender 1: Damn it he got us. You mark him. I'll provide…

Kousuke uses their moment of confusion to quickly and soundly slip through the defense.

Defender 1: Not this again. Stop him even if it kills you!

Defender 2 desperately tries to keep up with Kosuke but notices something.

Defender 2- This guy was already fast with the ball but he's even faster without it. Wait is this why he passed the ball? Cause he knew he could catch up in time to score? Damn. We got duped.

Despite Kousuke coming in from the left of the goal being completely open Ren still shoots the ball at the goal.

Ren- I'm gonna be the star!

Suddenly the Center Back blocks the shot with the outside of his foot. This player was Oyakawa Katsuo, a 6-foot-tall 18-year-old boy with short and neat brown hair, and blue eyes who was a bit bulky for a Football Player. Kousuke begins running to where he thinks the ball will land.

Kousuke- Damn… I'm gonna make it.

The ball lands a full meter from where Kousuke had thought it would land but he still makes it in time as it lands and he controls it. Kosuke then pulls back his leg and shoots the ball at the goal but Katsuo appears sporting a white vapor around him as he blocks the shot by kicking it. The ball flies straight into Kousuke's face and into the out. 

Kousuke is thrown back onto his ass from the force of the shot to which Kousuke screams in pain as tears well in his eyes. Kousuke wipes them off quickly as he gets up gritting his teeth and walks over to Ren, thinking to himself on the way.

Kousuke (confused)- How…did he…do that? We shot the ball in…practically quick succession. No one at this level…could have done that.

Katsuo: No one gets past me. Anyone who even thinks about scoring in my goal can just go and die!

Kousuke- This guy. I can see a white vapour around him. Is he one of them?

Ren: Kousuke...you think that he's...

Kousuke: Yeah I know already but the rules state he isn't allowed to...

The referee comes out onto the field walking up to Katsuo and holds up a purple and yellow card. Several members of the crowd see the purple card and start throwing trash at him in anger while other members of the crowd just sit there quietly.

Spectator 1: You damn cheater!

Spectator 2: Get off the field freak!

Defender 1: Katsuo why'd ya have to go and use that?

Defender 2 (exasperated): Yeah our rep is gonna take a huge fall cause of this! It would've been better if you'd let him score.

Katsuo grabs Defender 2 by the collar.

Katsuo (in a fury): Do you hear yourself right now? It would've been better if you'd let him score? What kind of defender are you? You something like that again and I'll smack some sense into ya!

Defender 2 (timidly): But Katsuo you can't keep using that, the professional leagues absolutely won't stand for it. 

Katsuo: Do I look like a give a shit about what the JFA or FIFA thinks? No one scores a goal in my vicinity! I'll never let that happen ever!

The spectators throughout this continue to throw trash in Katsuo's direction.

Spectator 3: His own teammate! Let go of him you villainous brute!

Spectator 4: Just get off the field already you cheater.

Spectator 5: And take your teammates with you!

Katsuo starts to get even more annoyed than before.

Spectator 6: Yeah your team sucks!

Katsuo shoots Spectator 6 a look of anger mixed with disgust.

Katsuo: Only I get to criticize my team cause I've fought together with them through countless matches. You can say whatever the hell you want about me but if you say a word about my teammates...I'll kill ya.

Spectator 7: Boot him from the game!

Spectator 8: Yeah!

The Referee returns to the field and gives Katsuo and yellow and then a Red card. The match continues without Katsuo eventually ending with a score of Home Team (3) [Nozotsuki Kousuke, Suzuki Ren, Nozotsuki Kousuke] : Away Team (1) [Saito Haruto].

Home Team's Coach: An excellent win, those cheaters got what they deserved by having that player taken off the field.

Kousuke- I don't know. Was that okay? He was my opponent but he was the same as me. I'd probably do anything if it meant scoring the winning goal for my team. He's just the opposite doing anything he can to prevent his team from losing.

Kousuke and Ren walk through under the stands to find Katsuo sitting with his back against the wall in frustration.

Katsuo (To himself): Damn it. I failed to protect my team. All because of my loose tongue. A 5-1 loss. How could I let that happen? Just like how I...

Kousuke: You are an amazing player even without that thing you used. If you were on the field we probably would have lost that match.

Ren (In disbelief): What are you saying Kousuke!?

Katsuo: I know. We only lost because I failed them.

Kousuke and Ren walk away through the parking lot and onto a walkway.

Ren: What were you thinking encouraging a cheater like him? He even blocked your shot using that. How can you not hate him? I can't believe that you would even...

Kousuke: Ren if I had been in his position I would have done the same.

Ren (in anger): Kousuke what are you...

Kousuke: Didn't you see the look on his face? During the match and after.

Ren: ...

Kousuke: He truly wanted his team to win. He wanted to protect them so badly so that they could shine. I can't hate someone who cares about his team so much.

Ren: Kousuke...what are you...

Kousuke suddenly feels dizzy as he falls to the ground.

Ren:...Kousuke? Kousuke! Hey wake up!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kousuke woke up, getting up slowly as he opened his eyes to realise he was in a hospital bed. He looked around to see his family (Father, Mother, Younger Sister) all asleep waiting for him to wake up and he smiled warmly at this.

Kousuke (smiling)- They all waited up for me but still fell asleep. What a troublesome family I have.

His Father Kyojuro was 43, with a slim but not fit physique, short black hair that was curly as the ends and Hazel eyes and was almost 6-foot-2. His mother Hiyori was 38 and had the look of a typical housewife with blue eyes, and long brown hair in a ponytail that despite how it looked was hard to style. 

His little sister Haruka was 8-years-old and seemed to have taken after her father in terms of hair as it was black, short and curly at the ends but she styled it in a bob-cut. Haruka had blue eyes like her mother but Haruka was a bit chubby and was almost 4-feet-tall.

Suddenly a white Vapor appears around Kousuke as Kousuke grabs at it but it's intangible.

Kousuke- This is…

Haruka wakes up to see her brother glowing and is excited to see it but it suddenly fades away.

Kousuke- I'm so confused. What is going on?

Haruka (shouting): Papa...Mama Big Brother was glowing! Big Brother is glowing!

Kyojuro wakes up before Hiyori does and he rushes to Kousuke hugging him.

Kyojuro (glad): I was so worried about you! Hiyori! He's awake.

Hiyori opens her eys to see Kousuke awake as she begins to cry as she hugs him.

Hiyori: I don't know what I wouldn't have done if you…

Kousuke: I'm okay Mother.

She lets go but they see the expression of confusion on Kousuke's face and become concerned.

Kyojuro: Kousuke? What's wrong?

Haruka: Big brother was glowing Papa...glowing!

Hiyori: Please quiet down Haruka. Kousuke what's wrong?

Haruka (pouting): Big Brother was glowing Mama!

Kousuke: Mom...Dad I think I have it…

Kyojuro and Hiyori look at him with concern as Kousuke sits up, his family watching quietly as a 

The Doctor runs some tests on him.

Doctor: A minor concussion. There doesn't seem to be any long-lasting injuries but I advise you to take it easy.

Kousuke: Can I train?

Doctor: Yes but nothing too strenuous. And definitely no more matches for at least a week.

Kousuke: Wait but nationals are in a week and we have a qualifiers match before that. Which means I'd have to leave my team to fend for itself.

Ren enters the room throwing an apple to Kousuke who catches it.

Ren: What the hell are you saying fend for itself? I'm a way better striker than you. We'll be fine without you.

Kousuke (more determined than before): Yeah I really got to play in this next match. This guy's arrogance and misplaced narcissism will cost our team the qualifier match.

Ren: Hey just trust me. It'll all be fine. I'll handle it. I definitely won't let us lose.

Kousuke smiles as Ren leaves and Kousuke takes a bite out of the apple.

Doctor: Well about that white vapor…you were right. It is an Aura.

Kousuke stops and listens carefully.

Doctor: We still don't know very much about this so I brought in a specialist.

Kyojuro: A Specialist?

A 5-foot-7 35-year-old bald man with black eyes and a bit of a stomach walks into the room.

Doctor: Ah mister Yoshino, you're here.

Godfather Of Champions

This is a story about the pursuit of victory. — "I subscribe only to the theory of victory. I only pursue victory. As long as I am able to obtain victory, I don’t care if it’s total football or counterattack. What is the ultimate goal of professional soccer? In my opinion, it is victory, and the pinnacle of victory is to become the champions. I am a manager. If I don’t wish to lose my job or be forgotten by the people, there’s only one path for me to take, and that is to lead the team in obtaining victories, in obtaining championship titles!” The main character was not well-liked by people. — “⋯We conducted a survey which had been deemed by Manager Tony Twain as extremely meaningless. In a random street survey conducted, ninety-three percent of those surveyed chose the option ‘I hate Tony Twain’, while only seven percent chose the option ‘This person is rather decent, I like him’. It is worth noting that nobody chose the option ‘Who is Tony Twain? I don’t know him’. Mark, do you know why Manager Twain felt that our survey was very meaningless?” Parker, a reporter from <The Daily Telegraph> laughed loudly and said when he was being interviewed by BBC. But there were also people who were madly in love with him. — “⋯ Became the spokesperson of world-wide famous clothing brands, shot advertisements, frequented the fashion industry’s award ceremonies, endorsed electronic games, has a supermodel girlfriend. His earnings from advertisements exceed his club salary by seventeen times, owns a special column in various print medias, publishing his autobiography (in progress), and is even said that he is planning to shoot an inspirational film based off his own person experiences! Who can tell me which part of his life experiences is worthy of being called ‘inspirational’? Hold on⋯. Are you all thinking that I’m referring to David Beckham? You’re sorely mistaken! I’m talking about Manager Tony Twain⋯.” He was very knowledgeable about Chinese soccer. — “⋯ I’ve heard about it, that Bora gifted four books to his manager Mr. Zhu before your country’s national team’s warm up match. After which, the team lost 1:3 to a nameless American team from Major League Soccer. The new excuse that Mr. Zhu gave for losing the match, was that Bora gifted “books” (‘books’ and ‘lose’ are homophones in the Chinese language). Here, I recommend that you guys find out what that one specific book is. Which book? Of course the one that caused you all to score a goal. After that, tell me the title of the book. Before every match, I will gift ten copies of that same book to you. In that case, won’t you all be able to get a triumphant 10:0 win over your opponents every time?” An excerpt taken from Tony Twain’s special column in a certain famous Chinese sports newspaper.
