Xavier glancing at Kazuna, Rauf and Evan stared at his bat which Alan passed him for the time being. "Too bad hun… and here I thought I would take care of it. Looks like we aren't that worthy." he smiled handing Alan's bat over to Evan. Suddenly, Ryan grasped his arm pulling back.
Xavier traced him shaking his head in rejection. Walking ahead he picked up Xavier's bat which was left behind by Alan. "
Don't give it to the likes of them. Give it back to Alan whenever you get to meet him back again." "They aren't worthy themselves." he added leaving. Xavier pulling Alan's bat back smiled, "You're right. I better give it back to him myself."
Turning around, he peeked at the highschoolers for one last time. Grasping Rauf's sight he uttered, "Rauf… you're hateful. The worst being I have met in my entire life and I can't help it but want to crush you. Do you remember, you asked me before that hadn't I learned my lesson even after Hugo left? Let me answer you now… there was no lesson that I had to learn, all I had to do was stand back up again. And, thanks to that realization you're going down. Mark my words the moment we stand against each other. I'll make sure to do so."
Kazuna hearing him stood surprised while Rauf smirked, "Heh… so you've finally woken up hun, sleeping genius? Alright, bring it on. I'll make sure you sleep forever after that."
Xavier grinned, "Thank your brother for that, he is indeed a respectable rival I met after a long time." "Whereas, making me sleep forever? Don't make me laugh." he warned, his blue eyes flaring bright red. Rauf sneered ceaseless.
The two of them declaring war under the dark grey merciless sky. Following the middle schoolers back an ardent beam rested Xavier's face as the rain cleansed his long muddled thoughts. "Ah… finally free hun. It really feels good."
Looking at Alan's bat he smiled, "Seems like I have a lots, and lots, and lots to work upon after making a statement against him like that. Kindly, help me until then." Kenzo reaching back at the pavilion threw the umbrella aside grabbing his gear bag. Seraph, Helios and Gabriel along with the others did the same.
The middle schoolers above looked at them confused questioning, "What's happened?" Kenzo not responding back headed out as Damian stared wondering.
"Hey, did something happen Feng, Ryan? Why are you all so silent?" asked Mikael worried stepping down alongside Hadi, Theo and Christopher. "Brother?" Ines asked worried, grasping Gabriel's enraged sight.
"Captain?" asked Ebraham confounded as Seraph and Adam with their expression grim, too left the stadium.
"What the heck is wrong with them?!" Aryan grabbed his head in utter confusion. "We got expelled." Ezekiel stated grabbing his gear bag following behind. The middle schoolers stood thunderstruck. "Ex…pelled?" asked Faris and Luth in a whisper of disbelief.
"You're kidding me right? How is this even possible? Hey, your highness! Wait for me!" Silas called out following Azazel, Heber and Kenzo as Damian too followed behind.
"Seriously, it's not a joke at all." smiled Xavier dismayed as he too grabbed his gear back at last making his way out of the stadium.
Mikael and Theo looking at each other followed behind with all the rest. As the once crowded stadium's sight instantly turned into a soundless one. Kenzo reaching the dorms, slammed the doors open. The fourteen of them heading to their appropriate rooms ignored every single call intended for them. "
Hey, hey, all of you just clear it to me what in the world really happened? Even my throat is sore of asking it again and again." inquired Luka losing his breath.
"Seriously, if you are leaving do we have to leave as well?" asked Malik puzzled. Ryan bringing his clothes out came to the lounge stuffing them into his bag,
"Are you idoits? Only we were expelled so why would you leave with us?"
"But why shorty?! Why were you expelled?" Mikael shook him back and forth restless. "It's because we fought Rauf and claimed to leave. Rather than getting expelled it's more like we devised an opposition movement against him." explained Feng stacking his books on top of each other.
"Huh?!" shrieked Farran, Christopher and Claude baffled.
"You're right, he was too full of himself and it was getting out of our patience. So we finally ended it all today." smiled Poseidon taking his cup out from the cabinet.
"I don't think that's something to tell with a smile on your face vice-captain?! Don't tell me that you'll leave? Ezekiel and captain as well?!" asked Ebraham anxiously.
"Then… what are we supposed to do all alone?" whispered Lucifer thoughtless.
"Work hard and go to the nationals at our place." Helios came out of the room with Ezekiel and Seraph. "Huh?! It's easier said than done? Are you sure you want to leave just like that?" Christopher confirmed.
"Yeah, it's better than getting ridiculed right under their darn faces!" growled Gabriel, tying his shoes.
"Alright, before doing anything anymore, all of you first dry yourselves up. You're drenched." Silas pointed at the fourteen of them fully soaked in the rain from head to toe.
Instantly Ezekiel rejected, "There's no time for that."
Kenzo slamming the door harshly came out alongside Heber. Damian eyeing him stood before him with a glass of water, "Calm down a little." Kenzo grasping a look at him took the glass away.
"What did they say, to get you so agitated?" Damian asked. Kenzo clutching the glass tightly stood silent. "He said that we were like mud while our performances were a huge disappointment. He also said that we weren't worthy of facing him and the world. So, it was better to get lost…" told Azazel dejected while Adam sat beside him, tears crowding his eyes.
The middle schoolers hearing his words stood stunned.
"Harsh, isn't it. And, we even heard all that." Xavier got his sketch book from the room.
Ryan and Feng picking up their bags along with Heber tied their shoelaces. "No way…is he even human?!" Mikael uttered shocked to the core.
Kenzo agitated stood up slamming the glass on the table, "No he isn't! And that's the reason why I can't stay here, even a second longer!" Throwing the base's jacket on the floor. "Nothing here, is worthy for this king." he glared putting on his shoes heading out.
The thirteen of them looking at each other, too put their base's jacket aside getting ready to depart.
Cassiel patting Adam's head eyed Seraph who looked at Xander, Luka, Aryan and Zac for one last time. "Thank you, everyone and I'm sorry." he thanked apologetically.
Zac and Aryan unable to keep in began to shed tears. Adam too cried out loud.
Ines eyeing Gabriel wailed, "Brother… don't go! Please." Gabriel unable to move back on his words patted his head while Malik and Christopher stood speechless.
"Captain! Please think about it once more. The fourteen of you are the best players amongst us. How are we supposed to take your place and go to the nationals, It doesn't makes sense at all! You don't have to leave at all! It really doesn't make any sense…" Ebraham wailed withholding a futile hope to stop them.
Helios smiled melancholically at Lucifer, Claude and Aza. "If it doesn't makes sense than let it stay senseless. Just consider it as a time for you to get stronger. Don't worry, we are right behind your back, supporting you. You are my team after all. The team who won the inter country national tournament twice. Don't get your hopes down so easily." he consoled.
"But, it's not fair… who does that Rauf think he is…" cried Aza angrily as Poseidon patted his back.
Damian patted Heber and Azazel's shoulder, "Don't worry, just take care of Kenzo for me. I know he is the biggest idoit amongst all of us. However, when he hates something he hates it and nobody can dare to change his way of thinking." Silas, Faris and Izack dejected smiled caringly. "Damian's right. Just stay with that idoit and be strong." they encouraged.
Azazel nodding stood up taking his bag as Heber walked out. "So will you go back home now?" Theo patted Xavier's shoulder. "Yeah, I'll drop the two of them first and then head back." Xavier replied.
"Hey Xavier… what should we do now…?" Hadi stuttered confused, tears brimming at the corner of his eyes.
Xavier walked forward ruffling his hairs, "First of all don't cry and be strong. Then, support Mikael, Hadi and Luth. Afterword's, get resilient enough to face the world."
Luth hearing his words stood with his expression blackened as Mikael hugged Feng and Ryan, "Be careful okay? And, don't worry Xavier too much and listen to everything he says Okay?"
Hearing his thoughtfulness, Feng nodded with tears in his eyes while Ryan bit his lip frustrated.
"Yes!" they responded together.
