I don't own Kuroko no Basket or the character.

So this is a story I started in the middle of the night a while ago and only recently got around to writing more of it. Here's the first part so hope you like it!


It was a normal practice for Seirin although one of their starting members was missing for an unknown reason everyone else still practiced hard as usually. Seeing as how the basketball practices were long there was scarcely any visitors to the gym filled with the intense play going on. So when a knock was heard at the main entrance and a member from the student council walked in everyone stopped and stared.

"Um. Is the coach here?" It was a first year on the student council who was obviously highly intimidated by the tall sweaty guys when she had entered the gym.

"Yes. I'm the coach. Everyone continue with the practice match while I'm gone." Riko walked over to the girl while giving this order to the stopped players. What she heard from her and the paper Riko received was something that she never wanted to see, especially in the middle of the season.

"Guys. Stop playing and come here." Riko's current expression was an unpleasant one, one that was only seen on her face when a major problem arose in front of her. The student council girl had left after a short conversation with the coach.

"It seems I now know why Kuroko isn't here." She paused watching the faces of the guys who she had coached and watched grow to become an amazing team along with Kuroko and now...those happy faces would probably become another entirely different expression after hearing the news, especially Kagami's.

"It seems Kuroko no longer goes to Seirin. He transferred today. On a desk in the office they found the resignation letter from him to quit the basketball team."

After she had gotten this out, the entire gym fell silent. No one was breathing. Everyone could only think of one thing 'Kuroko switched schools?'

No one said anything after this. The coach looked at all of their shocked faces and figured that she needed to explain more of the situation. The circumstances that Kuroko-kun left under didn't feel quite right to her. She tried to form a sentence, anything that would make them all snap back to reality instead of wondering why that blue haired boy didn't at least tell them himself that he was leaving.

All that she could manage to say was: "Well, we have no other choice. It was Kuroko's decision so let's just have practice and figure out our new patterns later."

Seirin's practice continued though the only noise coming from the gym was the sound of balls hitting the floor and the squeaking sounds of running shoes instead of cheering and arguing voices. Everyone was quite. Everyone could notice the missing presence that belonged to their phantom.

It seemed to have hit Kagami harder than anyone else because he was now missing shots and stumbling more than ever. The coach noticed while watching the practice game and subbed him out.

"Kagami, you don't look too good. You can go home for today."

He stood there looking at her but not really seeing her before slowly nodding his head, a sign that he was listening. A mumbled "yeah" was heard just before he turned around to the changing room.

When going home Kagami would usually get some food, usually with Kuroko, and then head home. He lived a simple life anyway. Although that afternoon was different. He didn't stop for food. There was even a sale at Maji Burger where you buy one burger get another half off. Any other time he would have been in there with a tray full of burgers faster then you could say 'Bakagami' but he walked right past the lit up building.

Once at home he dumped his school bag by the doorway then walked right past the kitchen and bathroom, going straight to his bedroom. He pulled off his shirt before collapsing onto the double mattress and rolling onto his side. The only thoughts that were currently possessing his mind were all about Kuroko. He started to speak out loud and didn't even care, he was the only in the apartment at the moment anyway.

"That dumb Kuroko. Who does he think he is? We were all a team then he goes and transfers schools. But the worst is, he didn't even tell us! So much for 'I'll always be your partner' hey, Kuroko. Ha!"

Kagami rolled onto his back then he noticed the picture on his desk of the entire Seirin basketball team. He was there and so was Kuroko with Nigou, along with everyone else on the team. Kagami rolled off his bed and walked over to his desk, grabbing the photo.

"What happened that made you leave all of us and this behind?"

He crumpled the photo in one hand throwing it at the garbage can. It hit off the wall them went in. Kagami walked out of his room to the kitchen. He couldn't starve just because Kuroko went and did something stupid.


Kuroko walked along the hallway to his new gym and change room. As he walked he noticed the same lack of trophies and awards for the basketball club just like how Seirin used to look before him and Kagami came along. His phone buzzed in his hand announcing that a new text had arrived. It was from Hyuuga and it was saying how he knows that Kuroko probably had to switch schools because of a family reason but leaving without saying a word himself wasn't good closure for him and the team. Kuroko smiled at the text thinking 'If only it was that easy, if it was a family reason then it would have been easier to deal with'.

The light blue haired male looked up noticing that he was already at the door with 'Males Locker Room' written on a gold plague attached to it. He pushed it open and was met with the sound of some annoyingly familiar voices and the same brick walls, lockers, and benches as any other locker room would have. It was his first practice at this school and he needed to make a good impression.

As soon as he entered the gym with the other loud first years they were introduced by the coach. Many of the members there stared lack jawed at the new monster additions to their club and murmurs spread throughout the gym. Many of these found their way to Kuroko's ears as he listened to the sounds of multiple 'Why are they at this school?', 'Isn't there better schools who would do anything to have them?', and 'Does this mean we have a chance of winning games this year?' The others standing next to him on both sides also heard all of these and smiles spread across their lips. The coach cleared his voice regaining control of the boys.

"Our first practice match is in one week. It's a small school but this game will help decide who plays as regulars for first years. I plan to have practice matches with other schools at least once a week so be prepared. One last thing, you won't know the school we're playing until the game that way you won't know what to expect so you have to become good at everything. Okay the captain can take over now for training." The coach walked off to the bench leaving the captain to address the players now.

He was a tall boy. Kuroko sized him up. Although, he wasn't quite as tall as Kagami but his shoulders and chest were wide and defined underneath his white muscle top. He looked at each of the new transfer players and a smile easily slid onto his face.

"I'm Hamiya Kantashi, you can just call me captain though!"

'He's really friendly' Kuroko thought as he watched the new captain introduce himself and the rest of the team. One boy who was standing with the group but separated at the same time stood out to Kuroko. He was one of the few who were looking at Kuroko instead of continuing on with their gaze to the others. When the light blue haired boy looked at him they kept their eyes locked. Something clicked between them but not in a rivalry sort of way. Neither boy knew what had just happened.

Their captain reached the male with swooping brown almost black hair and blond bangs that in right light would give off a white colour.

"That's Shiroha Miyazuki."

Kuroko repeated the name in his mind. He drew out each syllable as he thought of playing basketball with that guy. Before Kuroko knew it the introductions were done and Aomine had lazily thrown his arm over Kuroko's shoulders.

"We get to be partners again Tetsu. Just imagine all the teams we'll be able to beat now! The captain said we are running laps to start practice, so let's go be the first to start and first to finish!" Aomine was easily accepting this whole thing when just a few days ago he was playing for Touou.

Kuroko let himself be pulled by Aomine as they walked along with the group of players who were talking to the new members. He felt something heavy on his back and Kuroko turned his head to look beside him. Shiroha was close. He was walking next to Kuroko and Aomine. His height was taller than Kuroko's but smaller than Aomine's. Their eyes met once again.

Kuroko shoved Aomine's arm off of him then looked towards Shiroha.

"Hi."

"Hey."


It had been a week already since Kuroko had unexpectedly switched schools and didn't tell anyone where he was going. The Seirin basketball team was still practicing on the same schedule but anyone could see the plays were sloppy and a cloud of depression hung over them. Riko watched the sad display of basketball being played out in front of her. She knew that something needed to be done but she wasn't sure what would help the guys at this point. They had a practice game coming up but she hadn't told them yet due to it still being three weeks away.

It surprised her when she was called to the staff room one day being told that there was a phone call for her. When she answered it was even more surprising to find that it was a call from an almost no name school asking for a practice match with the Seirin basketball team. The other team had been small and almost anyone could beat them easily. But lately there had been rumors that the coach had brought in some good members and the training had raised to the same level as a championship schools. She accepted of course, wanting to see if the rumors were really true. If this school was going to become a new rival for them then this practice game could prove to be beneficial for them in the future. When told that the game would be in four weeks she was speechless. The coach on the phone then proceeded to explain that there were other practice games planned and that was the soonest they could play Seirin. He also added that a place to stay for the night would be provided for free seeing as how Seirin would be travelling far for this practice match. After saying their goodbyes Riko continued to hold to phone. An up until recently no name school had asked them for a match and was even providing a place to stay. She was stunned.

The practice game was now only three weeks away and she decided that now was as good a time to tell them. Riko called them all over and explained the game and that they were staying overnight.

One of the second years spoke up when she was done.
"But that school isn't that far away is it? We could drive there and back in a day."

Kiyoshi then spoke up offering his idea on the matter.
"Maybe they plan on playing us hard enough that we can only sleep right after?"

Kagami laughed at this.
"Yeah right. We can beat them in our sleep I bet."

Hyuuga became interested in where this conversation was going and jumped in.
"You bet? How about we make an actual bet on it then? It'll add to motivate us to win."

"I'll do anything. Just name it." Kagami was faithful of his team and their win. He wasn't afraid of what they would do to him if they lost, but they won't lose.

Koganei interrupted the others talking about what to have Kagami do.
"Hey coach; could we make Kagami the whole 'confessing naked to the one you like' for this bet?"

Riko thought about it and looked over her team. They had all forgotten the depression and that made her happy. She shook her head yes, accepting Kagami having to confess naked if they lose. The team stared to laugh and whoop at the thought of Kagami confessing naked.

"But what if we win the game? What then?"

Kiyoshi looked at Kagami for a moment before coming up with an answer.
"We all buy you a burger from Maji Burger."

Kagami thought about it and then accepted. He was going to get those burgers. He was certain of it.


Three weeks. Kuroko and the other formerly known generation of miracle members had been in this new school and team for three weeks now. Each of them had mixed into the team smoothly during the first week. After their first practice game and defeating the other school by 50 points (the generation of miracles members were only allowed in for half of the game) the rest of the team fully accepted them. All of the new members also received one of the team's blue and gold jerseys. Each game after that they had managed to crush their opponent. Over the past three weeks the training had also become more vigorous and intense, although, all of the team members that stayed managed to endure it. Kise had found out one day that their current coach knew their old Teiko one and had gotten a hold of an old training routine which he altered for his high school team. No one complained though because they could all tell that their moves were becoming even more finely tuned.

All of the Kiseki members could now catch Kuroko's passes and they were now working on the other members of the team ensuring that if in a pinch then anyone could catch even his fastest pass. It was through this training that Kuroko and Shiroha became friends. After a drill during practice they found out that Shiroha could catch Kuroko's passes without training for it and that the two of them were perfectly timed together. Now the two were practically together all the time which enticed some jealousy from the other Kiseki members.

It was after their third practice game against Yosen when the coach noticed just how well Kuroko and Shiroha worked together. He then declared later in the locker room that the two would form a partnership when on the court together. Aomine and the others argued this but the coach quickly shut them down by saying that it was only when Shiroha was on court and seeing as how he wasn't a full regular yet the others stopped their arguing.

Now it was halfway through the week to their fourth practice game and Kuroko, Shiroha, Aomine, and Kise had all gathered to go get snacks. When they started hanging out after school more, Shiroha had shown them the little store tucked away next to a river that wasn't far from the school and didn't get many customers. The boys had instantly made it 'their' store. Now they all sat eating snacks and pulling out more from the plastic bag filled with various things they had bought. They were sitting on rocks by the river talking about how hard practice was getting but that it was good too. Kuroko and Shiroha shared a rock while Aomine was spread upon one a step down and Kise was sitting on one to the left of Kuroko.

Aomine looked up at Shiroha and chuckled.

"Y'know, it's kinda funny."

"What is?" Shiroha's voice was smooth but it took on a defensive tone much like how he was quick to jump to conclusions. Aomine smirked at this.

"Just that we all have colours in our names, I mean like everyone noticed, and now we have you with Shiroha as your name and y'know, Shiro."

Kise laughed at Aomine's words then stopped when Shiroha stared at him but with amusement in his eyes. Kise noticed something then.

"But, you're hair doesn't match your name."

Shiroha looked confusedly at Kise.

"Hah?"

"Like, Aomine has blue hair. So it matches."

Shiroha was starting to understand what Kise meant but then he pointed at Kuroko.

"Well he doesn't match. He has light blue hair not black and his name is Kuroko."

Kise fell silent. The only sound was that of the river as it continued to flow. Finally Aomine broke the silence by letting out a barking laugh.

"Kuroko was always the odd one." Aomine continued eating after saying this.

Kuroko finally spoke up after finishing his popsicle.

"I think Kise's perfect copy is odder than my hair."

They all laughed, including Kise even though Kuroko was talking about him.


Hope it was okay!

I have a lot more of this to upload and it's going to be getting, well, 'hotter'. In truth I wanted to try writing some different emotions I haven't really used before so get ready for some upset Kagami mostly.
