Chapter one.

Saturday morning – Tennis club practice!

"That's too cruel Inui-sempai!" Momoshiro exclaimed. "Too cruel".

"Nya~ scary! I don't want Inui to dare me…EVER!!" Eiji whimpered from his cowering position behind poor Oishi who couldn't believe his misfortune to have been dared by Inui Sadaharu.

Almost as if already dead, Oishi trudged towards the school labs, following Seigaku's resident mad scientist. "Oishi!!!" Eiji screamed after his partner, kicking into a run only to be quickly restrained by a small effeminate hand gripping his wrist a little too hard.

"He'll be fine Eiji" the culprit that had stopped Eiji from saving Oishi smiled his ever present smile.

"…Fujiko" Eiji whispered, almost fearing the evil smile lacing the tensai's lips. He shuddered and let himself be tugged back into the circle of regulars that were still playing truth or dare, even after the many trauma's the game had caused on so many other occasions. This game was special though because this was the first time the regulars or to be more precise Syuusuke had been able to coax their first year genius into playing along with the rest of them.

"Well then since Oishi is currently not present I do believe it is my turn to ask, ne?" Syuusuke asked no-one in particular. His smile told everyone though, that if they dared to contradict him they would not live to play in the nationals. (It's a good job that Tezuka-buchou isn't present for this training session isn't it? I doubt that the regulars could get away with playing truth or dare with him around, let alone get him to play.) "Saa... I think that I shall ask…Ryoma-kun!" He announced turning his barely open gaze onto the cocky brat that the whole tennis team seemed to care for. "Ne… truth or dare O-chi-bi~" A shudder ran through the entire group, everyone fearing the tensai and feeling oh-so-sorry for their poor little O-chibi".

"Dare…Syuu-suke-chan~" Ryoma replied with the same sing-song voice that Syuusuke had used when calling him O-chibi. If the regulars were scared before, the exchange between Ryoma and Syuusuke had them scared out of their wits. Not to mention the glaring completion that was on-going between the two.

"Are you sure…Ryo-ma?" Syuusuke said nonchalantly, briefly taking his gaze away from the younger boys.

"Nya~ O'chibi don't do it! You'll die!"Eiji exclaimed whilst glomping the poor tennis player. "If you thought Inui's dare was scary you'll live in terror knowing what Fujiko will dare you to do, nya".

"REGULARS! 20 LAPS NOW FOR SLACKING OFF THE ENTIRE PRACTICE!"

"Wah! Buchou caught us!" Eiji squeaked. He turned quickly to start his laps before he could entice the wrath of the stoic 15 year old anymore than the group already had. The other regulars soon followed their acrobatic sempai's lead, running as far from Tezuka as fast as they could. All but two of them; a smiling tensai and a pouting first year.

"Saa…such a shame…here's your dare," Syuusuke sighed, already missing the frightened atmosphere that he and Ryoma had enticed, "Don't open it until Monday morning, that's when your dare starts." Ryoma looked, admittedly a little worriedly down at the brown paper package he had been handed. It looked innocent enough but after spending as much time as he had with his sadistic sempai he knows looks could and if this person was included definitely would be deceiving.

"Double dare!" Ryoma called challenging his sempai directly. A small part of his mind was yelling at him that this idea of his would definitely not end well and when Syuusuke turned around from the few steps he had taken in the direction of the running regulars and away from an angry looking Tezuka that was approaching with a startling pace, his face showed a sadistic grin that promised pain and humiliation in equal doses and his eyes wide with a gleam of unknown excitement; that was when Echizen Ryoma knew that he may not live through the next week. Ryoma gulped and ran as fast as he could towards his running sempai still gripping the parcel that Syuusuke had handed him.

"Next week should prove to be…entertaining…hehe" Syuusuke spoke to himself with his eyes once again closed and his regular smile adorning his features. He set off to start his assigned laps.
