Chapter 18 - NOT THEIRS. ALL OURS

EPISODE 19 – "NOT THEIRS. ALL OURS."

The episode begins like a silent hurricane. The youth football world holds its breath: Elliot Cross has shattered Flamengo's tactical structure. But Episode 19... isn't just about him. It's about what is born from chaos.

---

Scene 1 – Grêmio U-16 Stadium, 7:55 AM (quick flashback)

Narrator:

– Before the storm... silence.

We see Miguel alone in the tunnel. Rain hitting the ground. He stares at the empty pitch.

Miguel (inner voice):

– They say Elliot is the future... But the future was never a king. It was always... a revolution.

---

Scene 2 – Minute 25: Miguel Observes

The match continues. Miguel... just watches. Only watches. Elliot receives the ball, dribbles him, but Miguel doesn't tackle. He simply turns his body, follows. Blake yells from the sideline:

Blake:

– MIGUEL, GET HIM!!

Narrator:

– But Miguel doesn't move. He studies. He feels. He waits for something... deeper than an opening.

---

Scene 3 – Minute 27: Elliot Notices the Pattern

Elliot grins, walking backwards as he dribbles two defenders with backheel flicks.

Elliot (inner voice):

– He's not marking me... he's recording me. Every step I take... he's building a puzzle.

Elliot (softly):

– Then let's use him... as a piece.

He lures Miguel, pretending to fumble a ball control. Miguel bites the bait... and charges.

---

Scene 4 – Paulinho Appears

Before Elliot completes the play... PAULINHO explodes into the scene with a desperate sliding tackle.

Elliot:

– Tsk.

Elliot halts, spins backwards, and hits Paulinho with a reverse nutmeg — backheel through the legs.

---

Scene 5 – Matheus Blake Faces Off

Blake charges full speed. The camera slows down. Each of his steps leaves a fiery trail behind.

Narrator:

– Flamengo's captain... the prince of Gávea... goes all-in.

Elliot stops. Tilts his body. Executes a double feint mid-air. The King's Domain reappears. Blake stumbles... but doesn't fall. Instead... he understands the moment.

Blake (ripping off the armband and tossing it to Nicolas):

– Now it's on you.

---

Scene 6 – Nicolas Steps In

Nicolas grabs the armband. Deep breath. Sprints like an arrow. The instant Elliot touches the ball...

Nicolas (shouting):

– "THE TOUCH OF PATIENCE!"

He vanishes for one frame... and reappears already stealing the ball. Elliot raises an eyebrow.

Elliot (serious):

– Hm... He's got a rare instinct too.

---

Scene 7 – Pedro, the Shadowed Defender

A new figure steps in. Pedro, Grêmio's center-back. The air grows heavy. He activates his technique:

Pedro:

– Phantom Wall.

An invisible wall materializes between Nicolas and the ball. Nicolas stumbles... tripping on air.

Narrator:

– An illusionary block. A technique so absurd... the brain can't even process it.

Pedro steals the ball... and sends a perfect cross to Elliot.

---

Scene 8 – The King's Domain 2.0

Elliot receives it. Simultaneously activates Flow Vision and The King's Domain. The field transforms into a symphony of organized chaos. But... something's different...

---

Scene 9 – Kadu Awakens Without Realizing

Kadu is far from the play... but his eyes widen.

Narrator:

– Sometimes... power awakens without being summoned.

Blue and gold fill Kadu's vision. He charges toward Elliot... but he's still too far.

---

Scene 10 – Miguel... Starts to Move

Miguel finally runs. But... still doesn't tackle. He runs alongside Elliot... like a shadow.

Elliot (cold):

– You're waiting for the end.

Suddenly... Elliot changes his direction. Starts sprinting... TOWARD HIS OWN GOAL.

---

Scene 11 – Elliot Retreats to His Own Half

The entire Grêmio team freezes. Coaches scream from the sidelines. But Elliot ignores them. He dribbles past his own center-back. Dribbles past his own goalkeeper. Stops the ball INSIDE the six-yard box.

Elliot (inner voice):

– Breaking the opponent... isn't defeating him. It's forcing him... to evolve.

He gently taps the ball sideways.

Narrator:

– A pass into emptiness... or an invitation to war.

---

Scene 12 – Miguel Activates: ZERO DOMAIN

The camera dives into Miguel's eyes. Pupils dilate. Sound disappears. Glowing gridlines stretch across the pitch like a giant chessboard. Time freezes.

Miguel (inner voice):

– Enough watching.

Miguel (whispers):

– Domain... Zero.

[VISUAL EFFECT: The entire field turns into a holographic grid. Miguel walks through it like a war strategist. Players move like chess pieces. He sees... every possible future.]

---

Scene 13 – The Collision

Elliot smirks. Miguel runs. Not toward the ball... but toward where ELLIOT intends to be. They crash... with surgical precision.

Narrator:

– This is no longer football.

It's a battle between transcendent minds.

Miguel steals the ball... with a simple, lethal move. One spin, one touch... and launches it to Nicolas.

---

Scene 14 – THE BRITANNIA BOND

Elliot, on the ground, gets up. Blood on his lip. Eyes... glowing.

Elliot (standing firm):

– Britannia... Bond!

The ground trembles. In the distance... imperial trumpets roar like a battlefield. Every Grêmio player snaps into formation with military precision. The entire team syncs... as one.

Narrator:

– Elliot activates an ancient pact.

Where every player becomes part of a kingdom.

Where the collective... becomes the crown.

---

Scene 15 – The Awakening of Kadu

Meanwhile... Kadu watches it all. Miguel running. Elliot summoning war. His own team... frozen in fear. He takes a deep breath...

Kadu (whispers):

– I'm not just an arrow...

I am the thunder.

He EXPLODES into speed. His vision rises... as if he's flying over the field.

Narrator:

– The birth...

of the technique:

"NOTHING THEIRS, EVERYTHING OURS."

---

Scene 16 – The Goal

Miguel passes to Nicolas. Nicolas spins... finds Paulinho. Paulinho backheels it to Kadu. The camera follows each pass... as if tracking pieces of fate. Elliot moves... but arrives a second too late.

Kadu... face-to-face with the keeper... doesn't shoot.

Instead... he taps it sideways...

To BLAKE — who returned to the play like a ghost.

Blake (shouting):

– NOW IT'S ALL OURS!!!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL.

---

Scene 17 – The Silence After the Thunder

The stadium falls dead silent.

The referee checks his watch: 45+1.

End of the first half.

Miguel stares at Elliot. Both gasping for air.

No hatred. Only... mutual respect.

Rivals... destined.

Elliot (breathless):

– This game... isn't over.

Miguel:

– I know.

It's only just begun.

---

[END OF EPISODE 19]

Narrator:

– On the field of kings...

a revolution...

was born.
