A/N: As the first two chapters take place in Japan, I imagine the characters are speaking Japanese. Whenever they speak in English it will be in italics.
Seven graduated Seigaku regulars, Taka-san, Kikumaru, Fuji, Inui, Oishi, Momo, and Kaido, sit at various tables around Ryuzaki-sensei's math classroom. They are joined by Ryuzaki-sensei and two current Seigaku regulars, vice captain Ikehara Koin and third year Eto Ryosei. Joining them via skype on a laptop are Ryoma, Ryoga, and Tezuka.
"What's this about, Ryuzaki-sensei?" Tezuka asks.
"It's about Trey," the math teacher and Seigaku tennis captain states simply.
"What about him?" Kikumaru asks. "Is something wrong? Did he mess something up? I thought he was a good captain last year."
"That's not it," Ikehara cuts in. "Trey has gone missing."
"What do you mean missing?" Ryoma questions.
"He quit the tennis club and hasn't been to school in over two weeks," Eto explains.
"We've gone to his house to see if he was okay but no one was there," Ikehara adds.
"Not even his parents?" Taka-san frowns.
"Our parents moved back to America. Trey has been staying in Japan with our cousin, Naneko checking in on him when she can get away from college," Ryoga explains. "Last I heard he was doing fine." Ryoma disappears off the laptop screen.
"Echizen?" Tezuka calls after him.
"I'll be back in a minute," his kohai replies.
