Chapter 1: Introduction: Noticing Mamori

This is my first fanfic so I hope you like it. Please comment after you read it. I will gladly accept your comments even if it is positive or negative. Thanks.

These scenes are from the first few episode of the anime.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Truly I had abandoned this story three years ago but yesterday, I get to see this story again and reminded me how I loved this story backed then. So I decided to watch first few episodes, read the manga version and rewrite the whole story to improve this, believing that my writing skills are better now.

HIRUMA's POV

Hiruma and Kurita have been scouting all the incoming first years that passed Deimon High School. Behind the huge blackboard where the lists of passers were posted, Kurita and he have been eyeing a particularly short guy with a big brown spiky hair. They were just waiting for the right moment to come at him for he is currently with a female disciplinary officer of the school.

They watched as the said girl becomes teary eyed and went away for unknown reason. Now that their 'right moment' has come, they ran towards the boy and congratulated him. "You passed! Way to go! Ya-ha!" He said while tossing him in the air then tricked the poor boy to call at home and get his number. He is cackling loudly while looking at the registered number, another victim, and another possible member for the club.

"Hiruma! He is the ONE student that is off limits!" said a woman's voice and then the disciplinary officer from earlier just popped out and blocked the poor boy from him.

Hiruma was surprised from what she did. 'So this is Mamori Anezaki,huh?'. Hiruma had always known Mamori for being good in academics and being part of the fucking committee. She's the school's crush, the girl of their dreams, but he isn't one of them. Truly, he doesn't care about this girl, not until now. 'This one can stand up against me. Tch, she's either too brave or too dumb.

He looked right into her face, leaving a little space between them, trying to see if she's going to back down.

"Yes! I passed!" They heard another shout not far away from their place, 'Tch. I don't have time for this'. He decided to just walk off. After all, he got what he needed and there's no need to fucking waste his time with this.

While tossing a new random guy in the air, he heard with his pointy elf-like ears how Mamori warned the poor boy named Sena about him. 'He's evil incarnate…he's gonna eat your meat to the bones'! Blablabla… Just like any other girls, she's annoying and sounds like a fucking mother hen. At least she got her facts right.

MAMORI'S POV

"What?! The Football Club?...But that's Hiruma's club!" Mamori said in surprise when Sena told her about him being the manager of the American Football team. She told him that when something happened to him, he should go directly to her since she's a member of disciplinary committee.

No matter how worried she is for Sena, she thinks that she had to give him a chance to stand on his own. But the thought of Sena being associated with Hiruma is what makes her feel worried sick. Just being near with him within 10 meters is dangerous, what more if you're his teammate? She could already imagine how bad it would be for Sena. She sighed. This is all her fault. She shouldn't have pushed Sena into joining a club.

Mamori was spending the weekend with her friends at the mall. Shopping some new clothes, eating different foods, talking about what happened to them for this week, but somehow her mind is on a different world. She's supposed to be enjoying this weekend but she can't help and be anxious about Sena. She looked at her phone to see his text message this morning.

Today is the debut game of Sena as being manager of the team. No wonder why Mamori is feeling uneasy throughout this whole time. She feels that something is not right. She should really see if Sena is all right and she also needs to give her support for him. After all, this is his first time participating with such things.

"I just remember something. I got to go. Sorry!" Mamori said as she stands up and leave her friends hurriedly, not wanting to waste more time.

As she went to see how Sena is doing, she saw how fascinating the game is, especially when she saw a small player running past the field. She looked at the other players, knowing that the Football club is short on members. She heard a lot of complaints about Hiruma blackmailing other members from different club.

Instantly, her eyes found the spiky blond quarterback. Who wouldn't? His flashy look would make it impossible for anyone not to notice him. She sighed; she can't believe how far he would go just to get what he wants. She looked at the other members of the team and by the end of the game, she still hasn't found Sena.

And there's the reason why she can't find him, Sena has been lying on the grass the whole time, beat up by Hiruma.

"Hold it Hiruma!" Mamori said, feeling the anger rising in her head.

"Yeah? What?" Hiruma replied nonchalantly without looking at her.

"What you've done today is unforgivable!"she said losing her cool as she saw how unaffected he is by what just happened.

"So what happen if you're not forgiven?" Hiruma said while he grinned. Mamori didn't say anything. "So, what will you do? Shut down the club?" he added.

"I wouldn't do that, it's the middle of the tournament, and the team would be disqualified, right?" she answered without looking at Hiruma. She doesn't want that. No matter how angry she is, she never thought of shutting down the club. No matter how she always questions the existence of a two-member club, she never wanted to shut it down, never. Neither the two of them said anything after that.

While the team is on the train going home, Mamori is staring straight at Hiruma, giving him a warning look and a scowl on her face. She knew it doesn't affect Hiruma at all but she couldn't help it, it's the least she could do. She would never understand why Sena decided to stay.

With that, Hiruma just raised one of his eyebrows and started to talk about the amazing Eyeshield 21 to the rest of the group.

HIRUMA's POV

Hiruma was grinning widely while on his way to the club room. He's in a good mood to talk about their next game. He even has his football figurines with him. The club has now an additional member with a lightning speed and won from the last game. He slammed the door open and kicked the table full of fucking sweets. He arranged the figurines on the now-free-from-sweets-table and discussed about how they are going to win against Oujo High.

"Why did you toss the cakes all of a sudden?!" A familiar voice was almost shouting by his side.

"Why are you here? You're not a member" He asked annoyed, seeing her within their club room when she's not even a member of it. Speaking of the club room, he noticed how it suddenly looks clean and neat but didn't try to say anything about it.

"I'm here as Sena's body guard" Mamori replied with her chin held high. Hiruma just tched and started to illustrate their next game plan, he didn't bother to argue with her anymore. He's in good mood after all. While the group was talking, Mamori explained to Sena about the meaning of 3rd and 9 in the game, surprising both Kurita and Hiruma on how she managed to remember it by just reading it once.

Of course, instead of Hiruma giving praise, he insulted her and gave a great deal. Three advanced question, answer it all correctly and he won't bully Sena again, but a slight mistake would mean she won't be able to oppose him.

And then their battle has begun.

Hiruma is getting annoyed when Mamori manage to answer the first two questions correctly. Not wanting to lose, he decided to walk off and have some weight training, ignoring Mamori as well.

"I can't even hold still the bar itself" Sena said in a struggle.

"Oh, let me try the 20kg." Mamori said as she lay down on the bench and managed to carry it. Hiruma just raised his eyebrow. 'tch, at least she's not like the other girls that is so lousy'. Showing off, Hiruma and Kurita also try to have some weight training with 75kg and 160kg respectively.

At the end of the training, Mamori is starting to complain again about how cruel he is to Sena. Not really sure about how this would turn out, Hiruma said something about having a co-manager to help Sena with his workload.

"Can girls do it? I want to be the co-manager of the team so Sena don't have to exhaust himself" Mamori asked Hiruma determinedly.

Hiruma grinned. "Of course, fucking manager."

With that, Mamori is now part of the club as their team manager.
