As everyone pumped up for the upcoming Battle Game or BG, Mr Gil has instructed us to build some teamwork within us. We've been told that Mr Gil once a student in this school, so his experience in participating in BG really reassuring us... at least we know how to run rather than walk or crawl.

And for that, we're playing a soccer today and for the girls, they do the running 100 meters. I've to agree. Playing soccer is one of the common sport that one winning will be decided whether your teamwork is solid or not.

But after hearing that BG is not only focusing on some big sport like this, it keeps me wondering... did teamwork really is the essence of winning in BG? our slot for PE is twice per week. And we have two more weeks before the BG starts.

One slot is around one hour, which means that we only have 4 hours including now to train together. If we continue after school, our teamwork might be improving, but it's not a guarantee that the whole class will stay the number just like now. Not to mention that some of them may have to attend a club activity or other business, also in the PE class... we cannot always play the same sports in every PE slots.

 In summary, our teamwork may barely stand tough for any big sports that require a lot of teamwork... and for the other games, it will come down to a personal talent and knowledge to cover it.

"Alright, round up boys. Let's make a team now!" a good looking guy with black maroon hair, standing in front of us while shouting. It's Klar.

I know his name as his friend called him that. I admit that he is a good-looking, no matter which angle you look. My instinct tells me that right now he's standing at the top in the class and why the hell I can see the roses behind him?

"You guys are sure lucky to have me in this class! as I can play with a high performance in any sport without a problem" his words made everyone cheered for him. His words are sure sounded confident as his face.

Not only handsome but also an athletic too? you're too much blessed, Klar

"Now then, we got 20 guys in our class. You know what, after hearing Mr Gil said... it best that we choose only the best for a certain game. So if anyone that can brag about anything that you excel, please raise your hand and tell us"

Most of them who are raising their hand is an athletic person and is roughly about nine-person too. I want to raise a hand too since I do running every day, so that makes me an athletic guy too... but it feels so embarrassed to do it

"What about you. You seem like can play a sport" Klar point his finger at me

"M-me? n-no, I've no experience in any sport at all" I reply with a stutter. Shit, now my chance to become a friend to him has slipped!

"I see. But that's no problem at all. I will teach you until you better, my friend. So, what's your name?" he approaching me with a sincere smile

He suddenly extends his hand to shakes hand. He is a good guy, no one ever to extend his hand to me openly. I stood for a while until he winks at me.

I reach his hand and shake it,"My name is Aiza. Nice to me you"

"Ah, I'm Klar... likewise"

Ah, what is this feeling? it feels like I'm equal to him. His eyes were not shown any coldness or looking down at me at all. At last, someone has finally recognized me as the citizen of this nation! Banzai!!

"Don't get fooled by his mask" A voice comes from behind with whispering

An average guy with a gloomy face is already behind me. Hey, its one of the lone wolves. His words have picked my interest

"What do you mean by that?"

"Just looking at your reaction, I can tell that you're loner just like me. To attest to my guessing, I have a proof that since the class started, you haven't made any contact with our guys, am I right, Aiza?"

What the? how the heck he knows?

"How--"

"How did I know... is that you want to ask, right? well, you could say that I'm observing you for a while. I amazed that you're a loner just like me, despite your appearance"

This guy really creeping me out

"who are you?"

"Ah, my bad. I'm Deg. I'm sitting in the far middle of the right. Nice to meet you"

"And--"

"If you want to ask about my words about him, you really should. I'm with him since the middle school. Trust me, he's far worse than you can imagine"

He really likes to cut in when other try to talk, is he? 

But for him to say like this about him, maybe Klar really is a bad person in inside. Well, it's not strange though... since all the bullies from my school mostly like that. I should take his advice into account... but why he's doing this far for me...

"Why are you telling me this?"

"Well... um... you can say it was my act of kindness"

He left by walking with slowly headed to an empty space from the other classmates. He's kinda weird but what should I say... he reminds me of someone that I know

Before I know it, a group of five-person appears in front of me. The person in the middle looks like the leader to me. He's slightly fat with a tall body. And he's shooting his anger expression to me.... seriously, what harm did I do to you to cause your reaction like this?

"Oi... Aiza, am I right?"

Uwaa.... he looks scary! "Y-yeah..."

"I'm Berges... I'm always want to meet you... but--"

"You do realise that you can always meet him since he's also from the class, am I right?" his friends butt in

"Damn man, just shut the fuck up! I'm trying to create a tense situation here, so read the mood dude" he said with a red face, while his friends only giggles when sees his reaction

Maybe he's not a scary person like I thought

"Ahem... er... where were we? Oh, yes. I always want to meet you but I can find the right time on it"

So for three days... You're saying that you're looking for a really suitable time to meet me? can't say I'm happy, Berges

"So... what's up?"

"Well, aren't you calm now? tch, thanks a lot... friends~" they only laughing while hearing his word

"Hahaha..."

"Why are you laughing? do my face looks like a clown to you??"

Crap... 

"I want to tell you... that from the moment you take the forbidden fruit, you've already declared a war with me. So prepare for the worst!"

"Forbidden-- hey, what's this all about?"

"Aiza, I challenge you in a soccer game! you might want to accept it or I will make you suffer until you graduate"
