He's A Baller

The Yokohama F Marinos restarted the ball and were playing cautiously. Izan who had not yet touched the ball was moving whiles looking around.

He was scanning the pitch for any moves he could make after he got the ball.

Unfortunately for him,his teammates never passed the ball. "Why is it like this everywhere" thought Izan as he moved back to the right flank.

Izan saw Shuu take control of the ball and moved towards him. "This one might pass" he thought.

True to his words,shuu looked at him before sending a pass his way.

Izan who had already planned his next course of action quickly sent a curling pass to the team's striker after spotting a run. The pass drew gasps from the crowd

The pass went ahead of the striker who ran to catch up to the ball. "What a pass" one of the passer-bys said.

"How was he able to see that player" another added. As the Fans were still talking about Izan's pass,the latter had moved to support his team's striker.

"When did he get there" thought shuu who looked at Izan who was already on the wings.

Hito, the player playing at strikers position for the Marinos Fc sent the ball back to Izan.

The striker out of pressure had sent a very difficult ball,at least not difficult enough for Izan as he controlled the ball with his back.

All the players and the spectators who saw this were in awe. "He's good" thought Shuu and Shinji at the same time.

Izan didn't wait for the ball to fall down and quickly controlled it before moving forwards.

With his strides eating up the field, Izan galloped across the field like a free horse.

An opponent tried to tackle the ball but Izan with a beautiful Ronaldo chop sent the player tumbling to the ground.

3 players from the opponent team sensing danger moved to block Izan who had a shooting path.

Izan with a quick stepover got away from the first player. He then did a Roulette spin to get away from the second player.

Izan after this saw a shooting gap and raised his leg to shoot. The third player threw his body in the way in hopes to block Izan's shot but Izan who had fake it rolled the ball to his left.

Izan pushed the ball forward before curling the ball with his left leg. The ball went in a mad curve before evading the outstretched hands of the keeper.

The ball rustled the net as an eerie silence fell over the turf for a moment. The players coming out of their trance high-fived Izan as he came near them.

"That goal was beautiful " Shuu said as he raised his hand for a high five. Izan shook it and said "thanks ".

"Who is he" Shinji asked some of his teammates in hopes that someone knew who he was.

"I don't think he's a Yokohama F Marinos player since we would have known about him from how good he plays" one of the Yokohama Fc players said.

Shinji put all that aside and decided to ask after the match. The match went on and Izan's team was dominating.

Izan had dropped a bit into the midfield to try and dictate the match. He still played on the wings as he would be able to pose more of a threat there.

[In the stands]

"Onii-chan,did you get that on camera" a girlish innocent voice said. "Yes I did Aiko" a more mature male voice said.

"Why are you so interested in this match" the male voice said.

"Cause he's playing and I don't believe it" she said. "Who's playing " toji,Aiko's older brother said.

"My crush " Aiko said. "Your what " toji responded. Aiko sighed and pointed to a blue eyed youth who had just recently scored a goal.

"You know,I shouldn't have allowed you to come outside so let's get back to the car and go home before anyone notices you're not at home" toji said.

"Can't we wait a bit" Aiko said. Toji sighed while looking at the puppy eyes of his sister.

"Fine but we're going home after this" toji said. Aiko nodded sharply and returned her focus to the match.

"Who's he anyway" Toji asked. "He's currently my favourite football player" Aiko said.

"Is he a professional player" toji asked.

"Yeah he is. He actually plays for Valencia CF in Spain and that's why I was surprised when I saw him here" Aiko added.

"Are you sure,he looks young" Toji said.

Aiko took out her phone and searched the highlights of the Valencia's match against Sevilla.

She gave the video to her brother and continued watching the match. Toji after watching the video couldn't belief how good the player in the video was.

"He came on and just saved his team from losing. How can he do that at such a young age" thought toji.

"By the way,how old is he" toji asked as the commentators in the match seemed to mention how young he was.

"Oh,he's turning 16 this year" Aiko answered. "Wait he's younger than you" toji said.

"Yeah and so" Aiko retorted. "Nothing" toji said. "Is my sister a sugar mummy at such a young age" toji thought. As if reading his thoughts,Aiko shot him a deathly stare.

"What is he doing in Japan anyway" Toji muttered. Aiko who heard this raised he shoulders to signify she didn't really know.

A few loud gasps brought Aiko and toji's attention to the match again. Izan had just won a feeekick for his team.

Shuu who saw Izan pick up the ball didn't try to take it from him as he was curious about Izan's abilities.

Izan took a decent number of stops back. Shuu and shinji looked confused as Izan was using his right leg.

"Didn't he mostly use his left leg before this" they thought. Izan with a run up sent the ball over the wall set by opponent team.

Izan chose power this time as the ball was about 46 metres away from goal.

"He wants to score" Shuu muttered as he thought Izan would send it into the box for a header.

The ball went with power and speed before smacking the underside of the crossbar and entering the goal leaving the keeper with no chance.

The spectators couldn't help but scream goal. Izan looked around and saw that the number of spectators had increased.

"This won't cause any trouble right " he thought as he moved to his side of the pitch as the spectators and players stared at him.

"Okay,seriously Who's he" shinji said. The other players couldn't help him out with that.

The score was now 2-1 in favor of the Yokohama F Marinos team. The matched resumed and the opponent team tried to draw level but the Marinos team proved difficult.

Izan had now adopted a free role and was playing a maestro role. He was passing from all angles setting up opportunities for his side but the players just couldn't convert it.

Izan got a ball and signaled Shuu to go forward. Shuu after getting what Izan meant sneakily moved.

Izan saw Shuu's run and timed his pass well. He sent a raking pass through the opposition field and the pass was simply gorgeous.

The pass was a carpet pass which seemed to have a mind of it's own as it found it's way to shuu.

Shuu who had already gone ahead got the pass and ramped up his pace towards the opposition goal with the ball.

He was now one on one with the keeper and keeping his composure,shuu sent the ball over the head of the keeper after he was a bit near.

Shuu who had scored the goal simply couldn't believe how easy Izan made passing look like.

The match after a while ended in a 4-2 score for the Marinos team with Izan making another assist.

Izan sat on the floor watching the sky. "That was a nice change " he thought.

Shuu,Shinji and a few other players decided to approach Izan. Toji who was now being dragged by Aiko to go and meet Izan couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey" Shuu said as he got near Izan. Izan nodded while standing up. "You know we didn't ask when you said you played but what team do you play for" shuu asked.

"I don't think they're in Japan so don't try to lie" Shinji said.

Izan smiled as he looked at Shuu and the other eyes surrounding him.

"Valencia FC" Izan said. "Wow you play for the Valencia youths. That's great" a boy said. A silence prevailed after that before shuu and shinji spoke "Wait you're on the senior team" shuu said.

"Wait,he's on the senior team" the former boy said. "So that's why you're so good" shinji said.

"You're already playing with the big boys" shinji continued. "Well sorry guys but i need to leave since we have team training in the morning. I'll see you very soon shuu." Izan said as he left.

"Wait Valencia FC is in Japan". "They're probably here for preseason ". "I'm gonna go and watch the mat h to see if that kid will play". "Probably not,there might be a lot of players better than him"

These were the words of the people who were talking after Izan left.

"See me soon. What's he talking about. Where am I gonna be seeing him again" shuu thought as he stood there with a complicated face.

"He s not even 16" hito,the striker muttered. "What" shuu asked. "I said he's not even 16" Hito said again.

"What do you mean" shinji said as he took the phone from hito's hands. Turns a out a few minutes earlier when hito had learnt of Izan's identity,he decided to confirm it so he searched his name on the Internet.

His information was displayed there and he even saw the information about Izan's new contract with the club. What shocked him was the date of birth which implied he was turning 16 in 4 months.

"A genius" said shuu as he looked at Izan's back.

Izan who was on his way back to the hotel was stopped by 2 people. A young man and a female teenager.

"Hello" the girl said fluently in English. Izan assumed that the girl thought she couldn't speak Japanese and that was why she was using English.

(Why does everyone think English is the default language of the world)

"You know I speak Japanese just fine right" Izan said. The girl looked a bit surprised.

"Sorry,I thought you couldn't so...." Aiko said not finishing her sentence. "I became a fan of you not long ago and I've been wanting your autograph ever since".

"Today I saw you playing and I even asked myself if it was really you and after close inspection,I found it really was you so I decided to come and ask for and autograph and possibly a picture" Aiko said making her brother raise and eyebrow.

"Oh and he's my older brother " Aiko said pointing to toji. Izan who saw her brother's raised eyebrow looked at him for confirmation to which he nodded.

Izan took a sharpie and signed his autograph on the piece of napkin Aiko had in her hand.

Afterwards Izan took a selfie with her. "Woow,her skin's really white and she smells nice. Wait what is wrong with me" Izan thought.

After the selfie,Izan headed towards the hotel. "You like him" toji said. "Noo I don't " Aiko said with a blush.

"You would have a hard time convincing dad to let you date him" toji said.

"Wh- who, wants to date who. Plus he's not based in Japan." Aiko said with a sad face.

"Well you're attending university next year right. Why not chose Spain instead. You're smart so getting in isn't a problem" toji said and Aiko started to actually think about it.

"You're actually thinking about it aren't ya" toji teased. "You like him just confess" he added making Aiko blush like a cherry.

Izan made it to the hotel just in time for breakfast which was light. Izan washed since he was feeling sweaty after the run before joining his teammates for breakfast.

After that,the players and staff began heading towards the bus that would take them to the Yokohama F Marinos stadium where they would be training.
