  • Next Chapter

Time: Saturday, 10 February 2034 : 18:30 CET

Location: Estadio de los Juegos Mediterráneos, Almería

The Estadio de los Juegos Mediterráneos was a roaring yellow-and-red cauldron.

UD Almería were fighting for survival.

And for weeks, they had prepared for one opponent.

Caos.

Their coaching staff had studied every match.

Every movement.Every acceleration.

The more he looked at it, the more it made sense to him.

Every shooting angle.

Every weakness they believed they had discovered.

They created a new system specifically for him.

A chaotic 5–3–2.

Constant double and triple marking.

Tactical fouls.

Rapid counter-pressing.

Long balls.

No space.No rest.

This was willing to teach him something new.

No mercy.

The crowd understood the mission.

They sang without stopping.

They wanted one thing.

To see the violet storm finally show weakness.

Global Social Media Pulse :Pre-Match

#AlmeriaVsCaos was trending #1 worldwide, with 6.8 million posts in thirty-six hours.

Marca: “Almería has a new plan. They say they finally have the tactics to stop him. The crowd is ready to explode.”

The Athletic: “Caos has scored 13, 14, 11 goals recently. But with this new strategy… will this be the one?”

A new clip from Caos's training went viral.

Five-hundred-mile-per-hour bursts.

Three-hundred-and-fifty-thousand-newton strikes.

Dinosaurs.

Again.

The caption was simple:

New strategies won't matter. He trained with monsters.

Before Kickoff

Luis Suárez looked around the Almería dressing room.

“We studied everything.”

He pointed toward the tactical board.

“New formation. New pressing. New defensive structure.”

His eyes hardened.

“Tonight, we make it chaotic and physical.”

“We fight with everything.”

Edgar González added:

“He has destroyed everyone.”

A pause.

“But this time we have a plan.”

He could hear the crowd through the walls.

“The crowd will be our weapon.”

Across the stadium, Mbappé spoke to Caos.

“Almería has new tactics. They will try to suffocate you.”

He smiled.

“Stay unpredictable.”

Then he stepped back.

“And use the new power.”

Xabi Alonso met Caos in the tunnel.

They have new strategies.”

Caos looked toward the pitch.

“Adapt.”

Xabi smiled.

“Then show them the cosmic version.”

High above the pitch, the three maids watched from their private box.

Black and violet.

Zeraphina looked down at the players.

“Almería thinks they have the answer.”

Keyla laughed softly.

“They have no idea what's coming.”

“The crowd is loud.”

She leaned forward.

“This will be fun to watch.”


The whistle blew.

Almería attacked.

Immediately.

The new system worked.

For once, Caos did not have space.

Two defenders followed him.

Then three.

Every time he received the ball, someone was already closing the angle.

Every movement was contested.

Every run was met by another body.

Almería committed tactical fouls.

They pressed after losing possession.

They launched long balls behind the Madrid defense.

The crowd screamed with every successful challenge.

For thirty-seven minutes, the plan worked.

Caos was forced into tight spaces.

He was fouled repeatedly.

He had to pass backward.

Then sideways.

Then backward again.

The stadium grew louder.

Almería believed.

Maybe this was the night.

Perhaps, they had finally found the answer.

Then Caos received the ball in his own half.

He stopped.

He looked toward the sky.

His mother.His father.

The child he had not yet held.

Then his eyes returned to the pitch.

He accelerated.

500 mph.

The first defender disappeared.The second.

No matter what they did, it did not mean anything at all to them with the negligence that they demonstrated.

The third.

The Triassic Vortex tore through the triple marking.

The defensive line broke apart.

Caos continued running.

Sixty-nine meters from goal.

He planted his foot.

And struck.

350,000 Newtons.

The ball accelerated to approximately 821 km/h.

It tore through the air.

Then through the net.

1–0.

The commentator exploded.

“Caos has it! Three men around him—four! Almería have closed every door!”

“HE'S THROUGH!”

“What acceleration! He's crossed half the pitch before they can even react!”

“Sixty-nine meters!”

“HE'S HIT IT!”

“GOAL!”

“CAOS AGAIN! ALMERÍA HAD A PLAN FOR HIM—AND HE HAS JUST RUN STRAIGHT THROUGH IT!”

Caos turned.

One finger toward the sky.

Then back to the center circle.

Almería stood frozen.

Their plan had survived thirty-seven minutes.

It lasted one attack after that.

Almería changed formation.

Then changed it again.

They stopped pressing as high.

Caos began moving between the lines.

Then behind them.

Then everywhere.

Plateo Crush.

A seismic strike disrupted the defensive shape.

Caos recovered.

Goal.

2–0.

Then came Herrera Snap.

A lightning-quick finish.

3–0.

Then another sprint.

Another goal.

Caos knew it too well. He was the best. Every past such an opportunity that he did not let it pass

Another assist.

Another.

And another.

The stadium gradually changed.

The anger remained.

But something else appeared.

Disbelief.

By halftime:

Caos had scored eleven goals.

He had already destroyed the tactical experiment designed specifically to stop him.

The Almería players walked toward the tunnel exhausted.

The crowd was quieter now.

Not silent.

Just confused.

They had prepared for a storm.They had discovered something worse.

The storm could learn.

Caos returned to the pitch.

And he became even more spectacular.

Almería tried to slow the match.

It didn't work.

They tried to defend deeper.

It didn't work.

They tried to attack.

That created space.

And Caos took it.

One goal.

Two.

Three.

The ball moved faster than the defenders could organize.

Then came the new movement.

Caos sprinted at full speed.

500 mph.

He reached the final third.

The ball rose behind him.

He jumped.

His body twisted.

Once.

Even stronger than that.

I cannot see it.

Twice.

Three times.

Then he turned completely upside down.

A 58-feet chilena.

The ball flew into the net.

Caos landed.

His eyes briefly softened.

The child.

The child he had not yet held.

The child he already carried inside his thoughts.

Then he returned to the game.

More goals followed.

Almería managed two late consolation goals in moments of complete chaos.

The crowd erupted for them.

Not because they could win.

Because they had finally found something to celebrate.

Then the final whistle came.

Caos had scored:

15 goals.

And provided:

4 assists.

He stood at the center circle.

One finger raised toward the sky.

For his mother.

His other fist pressed against his chest.

For his father.

The stadium watched him.

The commentator's voice came through one final time

“The referee ends it.”

“Nineteen goals for Real Madrid.”

“Two for Almería.”

“Fifteen goals for Caos.”

“Four assists.”

“Almería spent weeks creating a system designed to contain one man.”

“For thirty-seven minutes, they succeeded.”

“Then he adapted.”

“And once again, the impossible became ordinary.”

Caos was named Man of the Match.

His 30th consecutive in all competitions.

The three maids waited for him at the private exit.

Zeraphina looked at him.

“Fifteen goals.”

She shook her head.

“The world is already calling this the most spectacular performance yet.”

Caos smiled quietly.

“It was for her.”

He looked upward.

“And for the child who will soon enter this world carrying both royal blood and cosmic chaos.”

Zeraphina watched him for a moment.

Then smiled.

The fifteenth La Liga match had ended in spectacular annihilation.

But something had changed.

The opponents were no longer simply asking:

How do we stop Caos?

They were asking:

How do we stop someone who changes every time we find an answer?

Teams created new formations.

New defensive systems.

New theories.

New strategies.

Caos simply evolved faster.

And the violet storm continued.
