Chapter 27 - A blindsliding dare

"Hey! Wanna challenge us?", captain Grover, elder brother of Groger asked from the other side.

It was all Groger's devious action, to make Jason suffer for grabbing his collar. He'd just sought the help of his brother and his friends, who were the senior players of the black scot.

Grover, an energetic youngster, with long blondish hair slaying upto his back neck, with a muscular body, a vigilant one with good reputation in school.

He was known for his selfless service to the needy, joining himself with some charity group in the world. He never liked someone disturbing his brother, as he wished that he was the only one to beat him up into pulp.

He did never knew anything about Groger and he believed whatever he said with his sobber eyes, as he promised his mom to take care of his siblings during her deathbed.

Grover took care of his siblings, more than his own life, as per the promise he made to his mom and also helped his Father too.

He never had any idea of how his brother acted at school, so he came forward to help him whenever he needed him.

" I just wanted to challenge you to defeat us, heard you've a great skill in soccer. Are you in?", Grover asked Jason.

Sean, who was practising in the nearby goal post, saw them messing up with Jason and his friends.

So he came forward and talked with them, "What is it, Guys? What are you doing with a middle schooler?".

" Nothing, bro! Just testing his skills to select him for the main matches", another black scot player called Welty replied to him.

Sean, insisted on playing with his team Blue scot along with Jason. But, Groger signalled his brother not to allow any team players.

" Be brave! Come forward and challenge. Call any of your friends, if they like to join you", Groger jumped into the converstation and said to Jason.

Jason smirked at him, for going to any extend to defeat him. He came forward bravely and said," I want it to be a fair match to challenge. Its between me and Groger, so let me challenge him. It'll be a complete unfair game, if I just play with anyone without him. I'm ready to play with any level of players, but I want Groger to join in ".

Grover felt Jason's words more fairer than his brother's, so he withdrew himself and his team from the challenge.

He insisted Groger to play with his group and win it, if he was too desperate to beat him. The players of Black scot felt the same too, not to meddle up with the youngsters.

But, as a senior players and being elder than them, they just stood ahead and watched them play.

A lot of classmates and seniors came forward to join Jason, but it was only his group who joined Groger after long hours of hesitations and arguments.

As Groger had only seven players on his side, Jason selected the same number of players in his side, to make it a fair game.

As the match commenced, Denise opened up the starting kick. With his high defending skill, Denise just drove the ball with high velocity and smashed it on the goal post, making the ball pass inbetween the thigh of the goalkeeper, earning the first goal soon after the match started.

The classmates on Jason's side, cheered and applauded with the seniors heroic goal. The match stretched for another half an hour, having Jason's team with 4 goals and Groger with 1. The ratio of 4:1 prolonged for hours, making Jason's team to have won the challenge.

More than the challenge, everybody got shocked and mesmerised on the playing speed and tactics of Jason. Except the single goal from Denise, all the other three was made by the one and only Jason.

The senior players got shooked up to see his speed in defending and his pace throughout the game.

No one were able to catch up with Jason's speed, as they felt lightning passing over here and there. Prof. James fitson, observed the whole match, through the huge glass window from his room and he lit a happy smile looking at Jason's overall performance.

Jason enjoyed the ceremony and he just went ahead to make the last kick on the excited lane. Keeping his shoe on the ball, he looked up and lifted his foot to kick it.

When he was about to kick, everything around him suddenly blurred. At an instant, he just felt on the ground on his knee; he just crushed his eyes several times.

But, it worsened his situation more than that, making him shout in agony. His blue eye suddenly pained a lot, making him scream.

Ailee rushed towards him and helped him to calm down.

" I'm alright, Ailee! This happens often and I got used to it", said Jason.

" Let's return to my house and we can talk there", saying Ailee took Jason and Jimmy to her house.

They both looked at Jason without blinking, who was laying on the sofa. They felt worried about his condition and so they both brought up, one by one, the causes which might have made his eye pain.

" Might be playing connector for long or looking at something which stresses your eye", Jimmy said to Jason.

" I'd told you just now. Its nothing to do with studies or Connector, since the day I got this eye, it hurts often", replied Jason lying on the sofa with his legs on its top.

" Why don't you tell your parents. They can help you", Ailee said to him.

" Yeah! I'm going to", saying Jason nodded.

After getting into a few minutes chat, Jimmy and Jason returned to their houses, finishing up the assignments together.

" Let's all join together at the Connector, after some play at the park. I'll text you the timing", Jason said to the other two, standing at the door.

Jimmy and Jason met at the park, after freshening up and filling up their stomach.

They both joined together and played motion- shuttle at the basement, to make themselves refresh an hour, prior to the play at Connector.
