Mei's POV

I watched as the wintery night fell upon me outside my window. It had always been like this ever since The Great Ice Age hit Akillian all those years ago. Even though it wasn't how many of the older folk remember it, it's home to more of us now than it probably ever was.

"Mei, I'm going now. I'll see you at training tomorrow." My roommate and best friend Tia told me as she put on her usual orange jacket with her camera tucked inside.

"Okay, Tia. See you." She smiled and waved at me before leaving. I was happy that Tia was finally moving on because Netherball and everything that had happened with Rocket, I was worried about her for a while.

I was in my room, alone which did often occur most nights since Tia wanted to spend enough time with Rocket as she could since Netherball, she wanted to feel close to him again so I understood.

A buzz from my bedroom monitor told me someone was at the door. I hoped for a split second it would be D'Jok coming to see me but I know that wouldn't be true since he's out spending time with his dad. Since Sonny hasn't been to Akillian in a long time, he decided to visit after our 2nd cup victory so recently D'Jok has been spending a lot of time with him. I'm happy that D'Jok has got a relationship with Sonny, nothing pleases me more than seeing him happy.

The buzzing was getting annoying now, whoever was making this racket obviously needed something urgently.

I made my way to the door and opened it to see a family member I hadn't seen in 9 years, Kenzie.

"Kenzie?" I gasped.

My sister hadn't changed since she had moved from Akillian all those years ago. Her hair was long and luxurious like mine except with curls, she was in her normal strippy outfits as I like to call them, the tank tops and shorts and biker heels. She never used to dress like that when she was younger that was for sure. It's probably because of all of that money she has because of her highflying modelling career in Paradasia. She was the one out of both of us who actually made it into modelling after I bailed on it to pursue football.

I've never liked modelling but I liked commercials and advertising work for companies. My mom just didn't get that which was partly the reason why we don't really speak anymore and Kenzie is now the favourite because she's done all that Mom wanted.

"Are you going to make me stand out here or not? It's freezing, you know." Kenzie says and I quickly let her in before my door closes.

"It's still as cold as I remember." Kenzie says, taking of her fur coat and tossing it on Tia's bed before rubbing her arms. "I still don't get why you stayed."

"You get used to it," I shrug. "What are you doing here, you still haven't answered my question."

"Can't a big sister come and congratulate her little sister for all her achievements? 2 back to back cup victories." Kenzie slyly smiles. I know that's not what she's here for though.

"Like you care." I tell her. I have my guard up because I haven't seen my sister in 9 years and here she just turns up in my room like everything is fine between us when she knows it's not. We haven't been fine ever since me and my Mom stopped talking and she left me to deal with her all by myself.

"Why wouldn't I? We're sisters, Mei. I'm glad things worked out for you." Kenzie says and sits down on Tia's bed. "I know things between us haven't exactly been rosy since I left and ever since you and Mom fell out but I'm here to make up for it. I don't go back to Paradasia until the last 16 matches of your cup so I'd thought I'd visit and come and support you."

This is out of character for Kenzie, she never came for the first cup or the 2nd cup so why would I believe her now?

My phone rings, I look at the ID to see D'Jok calling, I stand up and move towards another side of my room to answer the call.

"Hey." I try not to let my judgemental face show when I answer the phone.

"Hey, you okay? You seem a little angry." I can't hide these things from D'Jok, no matter how hard I try.

"Angry? No.. No... I'm fine." I assure him. "Have you finished with Sonny already? Are you coming back now?"

I hoped he would say yes so I could kick Kenzie out; I didn't really want to speak to her and I know she will judge me just by hearing Sonny's name but she doesn't know anything.

"Not yet. You're missing me, aren't you?" He guessed it and there's no way I could deny it, especially in this moment.

"A lot." I reply. "I'll be fine. You go have fun. I'll see you tomorrow at training."

"Alright. Mei, are you sure you're okay?" He asks me again. He knows all about Kenzie and why I don't like her but he has never actually met her.

"Yes, I'm fine. Just continue having a good time, alright? Love you." I try and make my voice sound cheerful.

"Love you to." The call ends and I turn back to see Kenzie looking at a picture frame I have on my bedstand of me and D'Jok, that was taken ages ago when we were interviewed on Arcadia Sports after winning the cup the first time.

I remember that night, there were lots of pictures but this one was my favourite because it was one of our first couple photos if you will. D'Jok had his arm wrapped around my waist and I was turned towards him with a big smile on my face. I have 2 on my bed and the other one is of me and Tia when we won the cup for the 2nd time. We took that picture on her camera, we were both smiling like mad whilst hugging each other.

"This is the infamous D'Jok then." Kenzie picks up the picture frame. "Son of the most wanted pirate in the galaxy."

"You don't know him Kenzie. You don't know his father either." She's not going to judge me, besides I know what I know about Sonny, we all do but that doesn't stop me from caring about D'Jok.

"How long you been with him?" She asks.

"4 years this year." I tell her.

Kenzie doesn't say anything and she's probably dropped the issue which I'm happy about since I don't want her to know anything else since she doesn't and I don't want her to always assume.

"Oh wow. It's late. I'm going to Mom's. Maybe we can meet tomorrow, for lunch or something." Kenzie suddenly announces, picking up her fur coat.

"Okay," I nod. "That would be cool."

I agreed reluctantly to which Kenzie gave me her famous killer smile that used to reassure me a lot when I was younger and that usual model smile she uses to get what she wants is what I've accustomed it to be over the years.

"See you around Mei." Kenzie says and I watch as she leaves.

A/N: And that's chapter 1 for ya! Honestly, I don't know who in the Galactik Football community on here will read this but whoever is, I hope you stick around and enjoy it. Honestly, I watched all the Galactik Football seasons and they gave me nostalgia.

I loved and still love this show which is why I'm not giving up on Mei And D'Jok. They were the best couple on that show apart from Yuki and Micro-Ice and obvs the OGS Rocket and Tia. The writers made a huge mistake breaking them up. In my mind, they are canon.

I wish someone would pick the show back up maybe on Netflix or something and get them back tighter and continue the metaflux story which I really enjoyed by the way. I think that and the whole origin story in season 1 with Technoid and Sonny was my favourite obvs apart from my favourites of course.

Anyway, I'm sorry for rambling. I hope you enjoyed the first part. What is it they say on here... you can read and review (a little bit of RR haha :)

See you next time. :)
