(name) woke up and notice that she is still on Shirou's embrace with a peaceful sleep on his face, she tried to get out of his grip but it ends up making Shirou's grip tighter "(name)-chan..." He mumbled her name as it confused (name) that why is he dreaming about her.
She carefully got out of his grip gently also carefully not to wake up Shirou and did a little stretch when she got out of her bed. (name) saw a small music box she opens it as the music started and it triggers something on her head.
"(nickname)-chan!"
"Hurry up and let's play together!!"
"Okay, okay, just wait!"
"(name)-chan?"
Shirou taps her shoulder as (name) snaps out of her thought and looks at him "Oh, sorry Shirou-kun. I think this small music box might be yours" she gave him the small music box and Shirou put it on his pocket "Yeah, it is mine. This thing is a remembrance from the girl in my childhood along with Atsuya."
Another trigger on her head came as she clutched her head, Shirou quickly reacts and he carefully let (name) sit on the ground "(n-name)-chan?! Are you okay?!" "I-I'm fine..."
"Let's make a promise like an oath!"
"It is about how we will remember ourselves, right?"
"Yup, we will definitely miss you since you and your family are going back."
"Me too, I'll miss you both."
'Why I'm having that kind of memories...?'
Few hours passed, they started the practice every time when one of the members are trying to steal the ball from (name) another memory came to her head, even they kinda accidentally hit her head making it more worse to trigger more and more memories. Coach Kudou blew his whistle "(lastname), you stay at the bench for a few hours. You're not concentrating too well" (name) knew that as she just listens to him "I'm very sorry, Coach Kudou."
She went over to the bench to sit down as she place both of her hands on her eyes "What's happening to me...?" Someone put a ice pack on her head, she look at the person it was Nishikage Seiya "Nishikage-kun..." "Here, just in case if you're not feeling well" (name) holds the ice pack as Nishikage sat beside her.
"How's Nosaka-kun?"
"He is on America now, doing the surgery."
"I hope his surgery is a success..."

"Also, (lastname), what's happening to you? Don't tell me you have a illness."
"There is nothing to be worried, Nishikage-kun. I don't have any illness, I'm just having some kind of... Memories that I am not so familiar with it..."
"Oh I see..."
Coach Kudou told (name) that she will not practice until she feel better on her condition, it did disappoint her but she have to accept it. All the representative candidates of Inazuma Japan are worried about her state.
She was outside the campground laying on the grass "What are these memories...?" She drifted to sleep, Shirou found (name) as he was worried about what happened earlier, he carefully lifted her head and place it on his lap Shirou takes out the small music box and plays the song.
He ruffled her hair gently while reminiscing some memories about the girl in his childhood, Shirou saw a tear drop slip out of her eyes while (name) was sleeping.
(name) looks at her surroundings that she's in Hokkaido "Why I am here on Hokkaido?" She asked herself.
"Shi-kun! Atsu-kun!"
She turns around seeing her younger self approach two boys around her younger self's age and who looks like Shirou and Atsuya they were playing in the snow "(name) look what we made for you!" The salmon haired boy said as he and his twin brother show her a bunny made out of snow.
"Aw that's so cute, Atsu-kun, Shi-kun!"
"Atsu-kun...? Shi-kun...?" (name) mumbled herself recalling what her younger self said to the boys.
The view changed as she saw them on twins' room playing the music box as it was the same tone as Shirou's music box. Her younger self tried not to fall asleep due to the melodic music box as the twins giggled at her "We knew that it would make you sleepy, (nickname)-chan" the purple haired boy said.
Her younger self rubs her eyes meaning she is going to sleep "You two are the only would play this music box to make me sleepy..." The twins chuckles at her sleeping form now. The salmon haired bow carefully put her younger self on his back like a piggyback ride, as the purple haired boy fixed their bed.
He placed her in the middle of the bed making the twins hug her and show how precious she was to them "Sleep well, (nickname)-chan/(name)."
(name) didn't notice she was crying as she wipes her tears "Why I am crying...?"

(name) slowly opens her eyes as she saw Shirou looking at her with a worried eyes "S-Shirou-kun? What's wrong?" "You're crying, (name)-chan" she was confused at first when she touched her cheeks it was wet "Do you have a nightmare?" "No... For some reason it's like I remember something..."
She have a lot of questions for Shirou as (name) decided to ask him to come at the fields in 5 pm.
"Shirou-kun?"
"What is it, (name)-chan?"
"Can you come at the fields at 5 pm?"
"Sure, what for?"
"There is something I wanted to ask you, I hope it will not bother you."
"It won't bother, (name)-chan. And sure I'll be there at 5 pm."
"Thank you, Shirou-kun."
(name) keeps waiting for Shirou to come while waiting she was thinking about those kids on her dreams name 'Shi-kun' and 'Atsu-kun' it did have some resemblance of Shirou and Atsuya's name on it but only it was short name.
"(name)-chan."
A soft gentle voice called out to her as (name) snaps out of her thought "You came" "Of course, why would I break the promise to come on time?" (name) inhale and exhale to make sure she won't make herself nervous.
"Shirou-kun... About the 'girl' you mentioned to me 2 days ago... Is it me?"
Shirou was shocked then becomes nervous for some reason, he clenched his hand into a fist "Yes... It was you, (name)-chan... No, (nickname)-chan" he was ready to be yelled at her suddenly (name) started to cry as it surprised that she didn't yelled at him not like the last time in their childhood.
"I knew it... Those memories I have now are you two as Shi-kun and Atsu-kun..."
He got even more shock hearing the nicknames that she gave them 10 years ago. She hugs him as he hugs her back "Why do you have to keep it from me?" Shirou hushed her "Sorry, (nickname)-chan... Me and Atsuya couldn't tell you yet because we know that you really don't remember us, I'm sorry..."
Shirou looks at her and starts leaning to kiss her lips filled with passion showing how much he missed her for many years, he broke the kiss for 10 seconds and he hugs (name) tight "We miss you, (nickname)-chan" (name) just nods and pats Shirou's back "I miss you too, Shi-kun."
They chat for awhile on how Shirou and Atsuya remembered her, he said it was the small music box that fell out of Atsuya's closet.
Shirou and Atsuya went back to their house then went to their room, Atsuya opens his closet trying to look for something until a small music box fell out of his closet.
Atsuya picks up the small music box "Why the hell I have a music box?" Shirou got up from his bed and went over to him "Did you buy a music box in our childhood, Atsuya?" "Hell no, music box are just for girls, ew."
Shirou opens the small music box as the music starts. The music was very familiar to them until they remember something, when they open the music box they saw a small photo came out of the small music box as Atsuya picks it up it shows that they were taking a picture with a girl who looks like (name).
It finally hit them to their realization, the figure of the child earlier playing with (name) was her, (name) was their long lost childhood friend in the past. Both of the twins started to cry how they forgot her and how they forgot their promise to (name).
"(nickname)-chan/(name)..."
"I never knew the music box that might be our remembrance" she said with a giggle.
Shirou just chuckles at her words "Well we still remember what you said before 'Okay, I'll keep listening to that music so I can remember you both!' But it turns out you forgotten us" he said like a tease.
(name) pouts "Looks who is talking, I even remember that you say 'Let's use this as a remembrance, so we could remember you, (nickname)-chan' you two are not the only ones who forgot me" she teased back.
They only giggled at each other.
The next day (name) was able to concentrate again in practice which makes everyone relief that she is doing fine. At afternoon Shirou and (name) are still practicing for his new hissatsu, Shirou did a ice skate motion like (name) did days ago and swirls up two times and lands on the ground with some ice.
"You did it, Shi-kun!"
"Yeah, it's all thanks to you, (nickname)-chan."
She let out a giggle "You're welcome."
They are glad that she was able to remember him and Atsuya nothing can go wrong now...
Hiroto and Tatsuya looks at the ceiling then looks at the window as it was like their heart is aching for some reason.
'It's not the time to tell her yet...' They both thought the same thing
