Third Person's POV:

It has been two weeks since Kyousuke's date with Tenma. And things may have gotten weird between the duo. They have been so distant with each other.

And of course, this does not get unnoticed by their teammates. They all know that they're very close, and likes each other's company. But whenever they practiced they can't help but notice that the duo was out of sync.

After finishing practice, a certain green rabbit and a talking teddy bear from the future surprised them.

The team approached the flying bus, some are glad to meet him, and some are confused because this is their first time to meet them.

"Hello Raimon! I'm back!" Fei says while doing her mother's signature move.

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" Fei puts his hands on his hips.

Tenma face-palmed, "Fei... It's been 4 years. WHY DIDN'T YOU VISIT US!?" he shouts while shaking the poor boy back and forth.

Fei never visited them for a long time. Why you may ask? It's because he didn't need to, and also because he couldn't risk making an interpretation point that can harm his friends 200 years from the past. The same goes for El Dorado. They disbanded the organization after giving the SSC their antedotes. Also because they may have traumatized and overworked the children... Meaning Beta, Alpha, Gamma and the others, now attends college.

"Hehe... sorry about that... But I'm here now!" Fei hugs Tenma.

"Captain, is this the time-traveler boy that you're always telling us in your stories...?" Kihmi asks.

"Yup! I told y'all I wasn't going insane!" he exclaims which made a few laugh.

"But Fei, why did you suddenly visit us?" Kazemaru asked.

"Wait... Kazemaru-san, you're the new coach!?" Fei shouts clearly shocked.

"What? Did you think that Endou is the only one who is capable of being a coach?" he says in a joking tone, "Now answer my question." he suddenly changed to a cold tone.

Fei jumped a little, not expecting for the new coach to be like this.

"Well-"

"Doctor Aruno made a book!" Wandeba says who turned pink cutting off Fei. And he earned a death glare from the green rabbit and he then shuts up.

Fei calms himself down, "Alright, where were we?" he claps, "Oh, right! As I was saying, doctor Aruno made a storybook. And he gave me a copy!"

"But first, please introduce yourselves because there are a few that I don't quite recognize, hehe..." he scratches his head

There were only 3 first years, 3 second years, and 1 third year.

The three first years introduced themselves first. The first one to be Kazue Takura, a red head with two pins on his hair and his skin is pale, his eyes were brown and seems to be a fine gentleman. The next one introduced themself as Akari Tetsu. He has purple hair that is tied up to a low ponytail, and it seems to have the same length of Kinako's hair. He is dark skinned and has grey colored eyes. And the last one is Katsu Makoto, he's brunette and has two front braids and a little ponytail at the back was a brunette guy who had front braids and a tiny ponytail at the back, his skin is tanned and has big blue eyes. And he seems to be as energetic as Tenma when he joined Raimon.

The next three who introduced themselves were the second years. There was Soma Shion, he seems to have feminine features such as his hips and his little waist also his big eyes like Kirino but he seems to not like that. He has green hair and cyan colored eyes, he wears a white ribbon that's a clip on. The girl beside him is Kihmi Ahya, she seems to be half Japanese and half Indian, she has pink hair and has a red streak, she also has heterochromia; her right eye is black and her left eye is blue. She also gives off that rich auntie vibes because she wears one big heart-shaped earing at the her left ear. And the girl beside her was the tallest of the three, her name is Junpei Kaoru, but when she goes back to her home country she's called Felicidad Gomez. She has a long brunette hair that has three golden streaks, she wears gray glasses and has three earrings, her red eyes really intimidated the time traveler.

And then finally, the only third year who transferred in the team, Miyabino Reiichi. He was the goalkeeper and captain of Teikoku, he excelled a year and then transferred to Raimon because his mother can't really keep up to pay for the school fees.

After all of them were done with the introduction, Fei smiles faintly. "Why are you guys only fourteen?" he finally asked.

Kazemaru answers him, "Well, many students had interests in other sports, for example, the track, basketball, volleyball, and baseball. And the reason to why the other third year's like Kurama, Aoyama, Ichino, Hayami, and Hamano aren't here is because they transferred to other schools. As for Nishiki, he went back to Italy."

Fei smiles sadly. He missed out on many events for the past four years. He wanted to visit Raimon but he just can't risk it.

"Ah... Is that so? Haha, sorry, again. I haven't visited until now..." he lowers his head.

"It's alright Fei, you're here now! So, are you gonna read that storybook or not?" Kirino says eyeing the book that Fei is holding.

"Oh, right! I almost forgot."

"But let's head inside, I don't want to hear a story under the sun." Kariya whined.

They all went inside the soccer building, everyone sat down and Wandeba sat beside the ace striker. Tsurugi looks at him and saw him holding a disc? Tsurugi asked Wandeba, "What's that you're holding?"

"Oh this? Well this is Fei's new invention! It's called the travel dimension disc 3000! " he exclaims. The disc had a green circle in the middle and some purple spots.

"Ah, what does it do?" he crossed his arms, ready to listen.

"Well, remember when we traveled to King Arthur's dimension? Well the travel dimension disc 3000 can travel to any books! The green circle in the middle is the scaner to travel into any book. And for it to work, you just have to put the disc on the book, the green circle has to be put at the title. And then boom! Everyone who is in the room is now in the book!"

Tsurugi is amazed at the invention that his friend had made. He thought that he would be focusing on soccer more.

(well of course dumbass cause he didn't visit for the past 4 years)

Then Fei who was standing in front of the two, took the disc and was death glaring at them. Wandeba was shaking in fear while Tsurugi only sweat dropped.

He stood in the middle of the room and presented the book to them.

"So, the book is called "The Black Knight" and he just published this!" Fei says while holding the book.

Tsurugi sensed a bit of deja vu.

"Once upon a time, in a magical kingdom called "Erihppas-""

"I'm sorry, but who the hell names their kingdom "Erihppas"" Kazue cuts Fei off and got elbowed by Makoto. "I'm sorry about him, please continue!" he apologized.

"That's alright, I had that same thought too." Fei admits

"Erihppas is a very cheerful and lovely king. The people there are very bright , they all will be seen with jolly smiles on their faces. Of course, we also have our bright king." Fei flips to the next page.

"He is the most cheerful king that you'll ever see. He is also the kindest! He would often go for short walks around the castle with his childhood best friend, the baker."

"And the one of the best things about the king is that he will do anything, I mean ANYTHING, to protect his kingdom. With the lead of the klaveiry, they can win anything." Fei says emphasizing the word anything.

"But what about our main character? What really happened to him?"

"He died" Hikaru jokes while smiling, which made everyone in the room surprised and shocked at the same time. This was the first time that he made a joke like that. "Don't blame me, Kariya influenced me." he points at the teal haired defender who is snickering.

Kazemaru sighs, his team is so chaotic. He loves it.

"Shall I continue?" Fei asks and the room went silent. He took the silence as a yes for the answer.

"His brother, who was the leader of the Gonpendra army.

His sister, who was the leader Sagittarii.

And the love of his life,

The Ice Witch."

"Ew, romance." Kariya says with a disgusted face. "So true." Akari agrees with his senior.

"Of course you will think it's an evil Ice Witch that cursed him with a love potion.

But no."

"They found each other when they were just kids. They grew fond of each other and eventually fell for each other secretly."

"But... one rainy night, the Black Knight and the Ice Witch fought. The very next day... The Ice Witch was found dead." Fei softens his tone.

"What the hell?" Tenma says shocked.

"And that's why the Black Knight went to the kingdom Erihppas."

"His first experience here in the kingdom of Erihppas, is not so good. He was seen to be a cold-hearted person by the people. Children and adults would go back inside their houses because of the rumors that were going around the kingdom."

"That's so messed up. They shouldn't judge a book by it's cover." Junpei says

Fei nods agreeing with her.

"Murderer!" Fei shouts which made some of them flinch.

"No! He's an assassin! My vendor friend from the neighboring kingdom told me that he was tasked to kill his partner!"

"We have to do something!" someone exclaimed

"What if he kills my children!" a mother held her twins and cried out."

"News about the outcast spread like wildfire and soon reached the palace.

"My King! There is an outcast here that was banished from the kingdom Thrornlyne. Rumors say that he was an assassin, what should we do my King?" The maestro said."

"The King was interested.

"Is that so? Well then, Rikoni!" he called out his most trusted klaveiry.

"Yes my King?"

"Bring me the Black Knight here at once!" he orders.

"I'll bring him here at once my King!"

"And then sunset came, the klaveiry had returned to the palace with the Black Knight behind him. The king went closer to the Black Knight and what he did next surprises the people inside the palace room. The King had welcomed the Black Knight with open arms."

"Aww, the king is so kind!" Soma says

"The people saw a cold-hearted person on the outside but the king saw what's on the inside. He saw a kind, brave, and loyal knight.

The King offered the Knight a room to stay and food."

"Wow, so he's living in a palace, am I right?" Kazue asks, Fei hums as an answer.

"Then One cozy night, the Black Knight now fully trusts the King and told him about the whole mess from the kingdom Thrornlyne. And Of course the King knew by heart that the knight was speaking the truth and he was the first one to be told about this."

"And after that night, he grew fond of the kingdom Erihppas. But still... he couldn't sit still because he didn't know what really happened to his beloved Ice Witch."

"Then he started getting dreams about when he was with the Ice Witch when they were still little. Soon, that turned into hallucinations. After that, he started to hear voices."

"So he has schizophrenia?" Miyabino asks Fei. The time traveler answered, "Maybe."

"Disturbed by this, he told his friend, the king, that he will be going into the depths of the Enchanted Forest.

The King understood, he gave the Black Knight some food and water, also other materials needed for the journey."

"And so, the Black Knight started his journey in the mysterious Enchanted Forest.

Not so far away, he met his sister with her companion who was protecting the deers from a group of hunters. After he told her what was happening to him for the past few days, she insisted on coming with him. But her companion told them that they'll just go back to Thrornlyne."

"After they both traveled for several days, they saw the Ice Witch. The Ice Witch was alive and well!?"

"WHAT!?" everyone in the room including Fei and Wandeba shouts shocked.

"How can this be? If you're alive... then who's the person below the grave!?" the Archer asks, puzzled.

The Ice Witch answered, "I survived my death. The person that the people buried was not a person, but a puppet that looks like me."

"Now that I found out that you're still alive, I still need to know who tried to assassinate you."

"Damn... what a plot twist." Shindou says. "I know right." Kihmi agrees who's beside him.

"The Archer and the Ice Witch both agreed with the Black Knight. And so, the three of them traveled the Enchanted Forest to find clues on who tried to kill the Ice Witch.

They searched, and searched, and searched... but they found nothing. Until one day... They stumbled upon a hidden temple."

"That's so overused..." Shinsuke says which made everybody sweatdrop.

"There was a secret message on a rock that they found behind the enchanted tree.

It said...

In this temple, there are three types of obstacles that need three people to complete.

The first obstacle is lurking under the icy shadows. This person has to bring an innocence and new beginnings, but can also go on the other end of the spectrum, representing a deep sense of sorrow and despair. Someone you very know who came back from death and mortality. That person is known to be fun and frivolous but can also have stillness and calmness.

The second obstacle is always behind an arrowslit. This person has to believe in themselves and always shoot from any angle, but can also run and hide, representing the balance of their strategies. It is someone who is close to nature and the moon. That person is known to be wise and intelligent but can also be kind and caring.

And finally that third and last obstacle is a group of people that are pulled like strings. This person is assertive and full of power, but can also be seen as a symbol of love and desire, representing the powerful energy in an extremely energetic way. He is loyal, and defeats foes with his courage and chivalry. That person is generally compassionate and friendly but dominant in their personality and may be quite charismatic."

"I didn't understand a single thing..." Tenma says.

"Same..." Hikaru agreed and so did everyone else.

"With these three obstacles solved out by the three people, the Black Knight finally knew who the assassin was. It was an evil mastermind that was pulling all the strings. The three went back to Thrornlyne to tell them that it was not him who killed the Ice Witch. Soon, the evil mastermind was beheaded."

"YES." Hikaru beams and his eyes twinkled.

Tenma who was beside him is now scared of his classmate. Who knew that this wholesome and kind mid-fielder would get so dark and evil in the future.

(just like his uncle)

"The Black Knight started a new life with the Ice Witch in Thrornlyne, and they lived happily ever after...

The End."

"A happy ending, good for them!" Tenma says, "But I do feel bad for the king, because I think he also fell in love with the Black Knight." he adds.

"You're right Tenma, he did fall in love with the black knight. And that's what I call unrequited love!" Wandema says while he was eating ice-cream- hold up where did he get that?

And somehow Tsurugi was also eating ice-cream. Fei looks at both of them in disbelief.

He closed the book and puts it on the desk, he was still holding his invention in his other hand.

"What? We're just eating, it's not like we're doing a crime." Tsurugi says with an innocent smile on his face.

Fei face-palmed then he put his other hand on the book. He forgot that he has the disc on that hand. Tsurugi saw it and shouts, "Fei! The disc!"

Fei realizes and quickly tried to get the disc away from the book but it was too late. The disc already scanned the title and a red wormhole was forming.

"Fei, what's happening!?" Kazemaru shouts

"WHAT THE HELL." Kirino screams.

Everybody was panicking.

"SHIT." Fei cursed, he just made an interruption point. This wasn't supposed to happen. Because of his stupidity he now put his friends in danger.

Suddenly, the door opened. "Kazemaru-san, can I talk to you for a second?" It's Haru, beside her was her junior, Naoki Ichiro.

"What the fuck..." Haru cursed to seeing the red whirlpool and Naoki couldn't speak.

As soon as Tsurugi's late reaction that Haru was here, he shouts at her. "HARU! LEAVE THE ROOM!"

But it was too late. All of them. Raimon soccer club, and the two archers, has already dimension traveled for the first and second time.

"Where am I...?" Aoi rubs her eyes. She's in a bakery? Oh no. Oh no no no no no no!

She rushed to get out of the bakery and saw a whole different place. She is now in the kingdom called Erihppas. And the book did not lie, this place is so cheerful. The people around aswell. Then she spots Shinsuke, Kihmi, and Kariya.

"WHERE ARE WE?" Kihmi says while panicking. Shinsuke answers her, "We're in the book of the black knight..."

Kihmi's jaw dropped. "We saw you rushing out of the bakery. So that means... captain is the king." she says still shocked.

Then, two people joined the three. It was Makoto and Kazue. "Why are we in Erihppas...?" Makoto asks, clearly confused.

"Wait, senpai's, didn't you guys said that you guys got out of the king Arthur book?" Kazue asks, waiting for an answer.

Silence filled the air.

Then finally after a few minutes, AOI spoke. "Yes, we did get out of that but we got out because El Dorado teleported us to their base."

"Can't they just teleport here too?" Makoto asked.

"I think that they have to be with us to teleport here..." Kariya answers.

Poor them, not knowing that the organization doesn't exist anymore.

"Is there any other way!?"

"There is, finish the story." the short goalkeeper says, "Well then, let's do that!" the red haired boy said.

"But the thing is... we don't know how, because we never got out of the book by ourselves."

"It's my fault..."

"No it's not!"

"Yes it is! I- I shouldn't have went up to that t-tree to get the soccer ball... It's my fault that he can't walk..."

"Kyou..."

"I have to earn money so he can get his surgery."

"Kyou... please don't do that. I appreciate you trying to get money for him but did he ask you to earn money?"

"No... But still, it's my f-fault that he's stuck at the hospital. Mom and dad are now working overtime because of the accident..."

"Kyou..."

oiʞuY hugs Kyousuke. He doesn't know how to comfort him with words but he tried, right? So the only thing he knew that would atleast make his frown upside down again is him hugging his best friend...

Kyousuke wakes up with a tomato being thrown at his face. His body ached. Did he fall
