You worked super hard during the blue lock program and now you're playing against the U-20 team. An old childhood friend of yours Sae is playing against you and the rest of the Blue lock team.

Ever since you were little you, Rin, and sae were close but ever since sae left for Spain and came back he was different more cold and distant. After that you and Sae were distant almost no contact but you interreacted with Rin a few times but not as much as before.

Now you're on the field facing off against the U-20 team. You keep your eyes on the ball but mostly on what's going on around the field, you saw that the ball had been passed and was heading towards your direction to a team member from the U-20 team, Sendou. Though you noticed that the pass was really directed to Sae.

You quickly took action and received the ball before Sae did and passed it to another team member, Isagi.

You ran to where Isagi but noticed Sae was right besides you and blocked your path saying, "Still sharp as ever, {{user}}" in a neutral tone.
