*Whistle Blows* A boy passed the ball in to Dyspo. The score was 45-47 and the time remaining was 5 seconds. Dyspo dribbled in to the hoop. The biggest kid on the other team jumped to block him, but Dyspo passed it back out to a Future Gohan look alike except he was a lot younger. His name was Saiko. Saiko got the ball at the three point line and shot the three right before the buzzer sounded. The ball flew threw the air with a graceful arc. It didn't touch the rim. Hell, it didn't even touch the net. Saiko smiled. "Cash!" The ball sailed into the hoop and nailed the game winning buzzerbeater.
"Game Over!" the crowd cheered as Saiko and Dyspo jumped up and hi five each other before doing another one behind the back. "Yeah! We won!" Saiko yelled. Dyspo slapped him on the back and laughed. They had just finished their last game of the season. Their last season ever together. After, they went to different middle schools. This story begins on Saiko's first day of high school. The day he met a group of kids with a lot of potential...and no idea how to play basketball.
"YAAAAHHH!" The five foot three Krillin came close to the hoop and jumped as high as he could, holding the ball out with two hands. "I'm gonna dunk!" as he sailed under the hoop and faceplanted, the ball bouncing off the ground and getting caught by a certain flame haired teen. "Jeez Krillin, you're pathetic." "Shut up Vegeta." Krillin clutched his bloody nose and glared… until he realised he had no bloody nose. He didn't even have a nose at all. "You try dunking." Vegeta dribbled down to the end of the court and jumped to dunk, coming up a foot short with no ball in his hand. He had lost the ball halfway down the court.
"Hahahahaha!" "Shut up Krillin! It's not like you're any better." "Neither are you Vegeta." Vegeta turned to a 6 foot tall boy with semi-spiky hair and a grin on his face. "Kakarot, you're not too good either." "Maybe so, but my height gives me an advantage. "You think so?" Vegeta grabbed the ball and pulled up for the shot. Goku raised his hand and slapped it down. Vegeta got it again and pump faked, losing his grip but still holding onto the ball. Goku jumped and fell over to the side. "Sad." Vegeta remarked before letting his shot up. Absolute miss. Not even close. (I apologize in advance for my poor rapping ability and inaccuracy of the real song.) "Air ball. Ba-dum-bum-bada-bum. Bum-da-bada-bum." Krillin started to rap "Fireball" by Pitbull (except he said airball instead of fireball) and Vegeta turned red from embarrassment. "Be quiet!"
"Guys, why all the commotion." "Yeah. It hurts my ears a bit." Two twins walked through the doors to the gym. One was a boy and one was a girl, and their names were 17 and 18 respectively. You could also call them Juunanagou and Juuhachigou. "I'm kinda bothered by it too." Another bald boy Goku's height and a boy with wild black hair followed. "You're all jokes." The wild haired one proudly stated. "Yeah, I know. I got a joke to tell. It's called Yamcha." Vegeta roasted Yamcha, the wild haired one. Yamcha eyed him and Vegeta passed him the ball. Yamcha was at the corner three. "Shoot." Yamcha shot the ball as hard as he could, and the ball made a trip to the side of the backboard. Then it made a return trip to his face. "Hahahahaha! I wonder who the real joke is." The tall bald one, Tien laughed.
Saiko walked to the gym with his bag slung over his right shoulder and a basketball spinning on his left hands' middle finger. He walked in to find the current setup of kids. "Hey guys." They all looked at him weirdly. "Do you guys play basketball too?" (In the order of introduction, which is Krillin, Vegeta, Goku, 17, 18, Tien, Yamcha.) "Yeah." "Best player there is." "Love the game." "Yup." "Yeah." "Of course." "Ten times better than you do!" Yamcha finished. "Really? Play me one on one." Saiko was excited. He passed Yamcha the ball. "My name's Saiko Ramirez. Nice to meet you all." Yamcha pulled up and Saiko slapped it down on his tiptoes. Saiko got the ball and dribbled to the right. Yamcha shifted to the right and Saiko crossed over to the left. Yamcha fell over and skidded to the stands. Saiko sweatdropped. He took the open shot for a swish. "You alright?"
Yamcha got up and smirked with his hands on his hips. "That was a fluke! If I had actually tried I could whoop your ass!" Everyone sweatdropped. "Here guys let's play a game before class. We have 25 minutes so let's do 5 minute quarters and a 5 minute halftime. They split up the teams so it was Saiko, Krillin, 17, and 18 vs Goku, Vegeta, Tien, and Yamcha. Goku started with the ball. He passed it to Tien and he dribbled it down to the hoop. Tien's 6 feet and 10 inches in height and another 2 feet in arm length made it possible for him to dunk, but what they didn't expect was for a 6 foot 5 Saiko to liftoff so his feet were a yard off the ground, slapping the ball out of his hand. 17 got the ball and dribbled up, passing the ball to Saiko when they crossed the half.
Saiko dribbled and spun around Goku before crossing over and laying it up past Tien. 2 - 0. Goku passed the ball to Vegeta for the inbound and Vegeta dribbled to 18, who stole it from him and passed it to Krillin in the corner. Krillin wanted to light up his first 3 pointer, but he passed to 17 who threw it back out to 18. She took a deep 2 pointer and missed, but just as it bounced off the rim, Saiko jumped up and slammed the ball down with his right hand. "Pause game!" Saiko yelled. They all were confused, so he tried his best to be as polite as possible with his next message.
"Have you guys ever actually played basketball for real before?" They all were puzzled. "No offense, but most of you seem to be rather novice-like. For example, Krillin had an open look in the corner there, but he passed it. If he'd played a reasonable amount of basketball before, he'd have the courage to take that shot." Saiko looked at Krillin. "Yeah, I've never been on a team before. I wanted to make this year's." Krillin admitted. Saiko smiled. "Lemme see." He pulled a sort of gadget with a glass screen on it and fastened it to his head, so that the screen was in front of his left eye. "Is that a scouter?" Vegeta recognized. "Yup. It's that new technology that evaluates player stats. He looked at Vegeta.
"Hmmm...78 overall." He concluded. "What!" Vegeta growled. "Don't worry, the average players are 85. You can catch up to them rather quickly if you practice." "I better." Vegeta growled. Saiko looked at Goku, then 17, then 18, then Tien, then Yamcha, and then Krillin. "76. 82. 81. 74. 69. And...86?" He asked surprised. Saiko double checked the stats. Yeah, that's definitely an 86. Unless it's upside down, but that would make him a 98." Krillin dropped his jaw. "I'm...above average?" "Congrats!" he slapped Krillin on the back. "Hold up! There's no way I'm a 69! That number's gotta be upside down!" Yamcha yelled. Everyone sweatdropped. "Dude, 69 flipped over is 69." Tien laughed. "I...I knew that! I was just testing you!" Yamcha pridefully exclaimed.
"God grant me patience, because strength would kill this buffoon." Vegeta glared at Yamcha. Yamcha began to laugh pridefully when Krillin sunk a corner three. "Wow...I really am an 86." Krillin was amazed. Then something peaked his interest. "Hey Saiko." Krillin started. "Yeah?" "What's your overall?"
