CHAPTER 1: THE LETTER AND THE VISIT

-Ikki!!!!

-Wha., I wasn't, I swear I didn't do it...-

-Yeah, it wasn´t him, he didn't eat it, he knows nothing about it- Metabee said, laughing.

-You don't understand, I'm not accusing you- said Erika, smiling.

-You're not???- Ikki asked, very impressed.

-No- said Erika, rather happy than angry (which wasn't usual in her)- I've just got a letter from Iceland and...-

-Let me guess- Ikki interrumped her - Belmont is comming to the Soccer World Cup here in Japan- he smiled sarcasticly.

-Exactly- said Erika with a big smile on her face, while Ikki's jaw dropped and Metabee just sweatdropped very impressed.

-Wow, Ikki, you're a mind-reader - Metabee said.

-His dad is Iceland team's doctor, so he will come with him- Erika explained cheerfully.

==Four years, four long years have passed since Ikki, Erika and the others had met Belmont and team Iceland in the last Medabot tournament. For four years, they had been sending letters to Iceland and getting them back==

-And where is he staying? I mean, his dad is staying (obviously) with the rest of the team, but Belmont... - Ikki didn't finish because Erika was really impatient to answer him.

-Oh, that, don't worry, he's staying at Koji's house.-

-Whaaaaaat???- asked Ikki and Metabee at the same time.

-Well, he was going to rent a small appartment, but Koji was nice (which is not very usual) and agreed to recieve him, didn't he, miss Erika?- Brass said, who was very quiet until now.

-That's right, Brass- said Erika closing an eye.

Just then, Koji and Karin appeared behind the window of Karin's pink limo.

-Hi there, all of you - said Karin with a big smile (like usual). Have you heard the big news?-.

-Yeah, that's amazing- said Koji- at last, we will be able to see someone we wanted to see for a long time, and we will be able to watch every Iceland match, too, thanks to Belmont's dad.-

Deep in her mind, Erika thought how wonderful will it be to really see Belmont. She was in love with him since the very day she met him. But just then, a shudder traveled through her body. What would happen if Belmont didn't feel the same about her? She said goodbye to her friends and went home thinking about it. She changed clothes and went to bed thinking about it. After some time, she said to herself: 'Well, I guess tomorrow I'll find out...' and fell asleep swiftly.
