Prologue: Coming Soon...

It's another sunny day, perfect for tennis practice.

Momoshiro daydreamed as he stared out the window, and snacked on junk food. "MOMOSHIRO!" After Momo snapped back to reality from hearing his teacher's irritated voice, he nervously replied "hai?" "Thank you for joining us" The sensei sarcastically added as most of the students giggled. That is, of course, except for a certain mamushi who simply whispered under his breath "Baka."

"As I was saying, we are going to be receiving a new transfer student…Well actually, she was supposed to arrive today, but it seems that she has a cold so you'll have to wait until tomorrow." As the rest of the class moaned, Momo began to ponder as his cheeks acquired a little color.

He said "she" hmm I wonder if she's cute or someone like-AYIIIEHH NO STOP THINKING ABOUT COMPARING EVERYONE TO HER!

Kaidoh sighed with his natural hiss, causing the students around him to flinch (as if they forgot he was there or something).

Another student huh, there are already one too many bakas in this classroom.

He momentarily glared at the blushing Momo going through his desk to find another snack to devour. Kaidoh shifted his focus to find that the only remaining empty seat was to his left. He sighed and hissed again, of course making the surrounding students flinch again.

This new student better not be another baka.

"I'm excited, it's about time we have something interesting happen in class," Momo gushed as the regulars warmed up for practice.

"I don't see what the big deal i-" Echizen murmured but was cut off by Momo.

"Oi Echizen it's a huge deal, it's not every day that a second year transfers, you freshmen transfer all the time, maybe she's from an exotic land who wanted-"

This time Momo was interrupted by a certain mamushi, "Would you shut up, peach! I can't even hear myself think!"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Momo shouted.

Except for the mother hen, the rest of the regulars decided to ignore what they already knew was coming.

"Please you two, no fighting," Oishi pleaded, but the fighting pair ignored him and clenched each other's shirt collars even harder.

"Momoshiro, Kaidoh, 30 laps!"

Leave it to captain Tezuka to end the quarrel. As the two began to run, turning it into another competition, Fuji glanced over at Momo. As he watched Momo run, a slight upward curve rose upon his face. Inui took note of Fuji's countenance.

The probability of Fuji teasing Momoshiro in regards to Tachibana imouto: 96%.

As the Seigaku tennis team wrapped up practice, four eyes watched the freshmen take down the nets and collect the last ball baskets from behind a tree. The eyes watched in interest as a guy with spiky hair blushed with embarrassment as another smiled at him in a rather intriguing manner.

He's rather interesting.

Me: Irashaymasay *attempting to say welcome* Ah, gomenasai, I-I mean I'm sorry! X( I must be confusing with the random Japanese words. I'm sure some of you are pretty familiar with them, but for those of you who aren't, TA DA! Irashaymasay to 32692010's translation corner! I'll be you're translator for any new Japanese words that will occur in the story (I'll try not to put so many that you'll have to scroll down here every other line) demo (but/however) I do want to incorporate it to give it a more Japanese tone. *clears throat* Now, for the prologue:

Momoshiro says "hai" to the teacher. Hai means yes, and he's using it more formally to address the teacher with respect.

Sensei is used on the second line which refers to someone of a profession like a teacher. It has the same load of respect as saying "-sama", greatly respected, but think of it like adding more respect to the teacher because he or she spent all of that time in school, learning and working hard to become an educator for the students.

The word "baka" is used numerous times here, and it means idiot or moron. Simply put, Kaidoh is harshly insulting Momo.

Mamushi-viper. It's Kaidoh's nickname since his special move is the snake and he tends to act rather snake-like...you know, with the hissing, and sudden attacks when provoked by Momo.

Peach: Yeah, I know it's english and that you're all familiar with what a peach is, however, in japanese 'momo' can also translate to peach. I'm pretty sure it's depends on the pronunciation, and Kaidoh called him a peach simply to annoy and provoke him.

Imouto-younger sister. Inui's really referring to Tachibanna Kippei's younger sister: An.

Well, I hope this helps. ^_^
