Kira (Your pov):
"You may now prepare to leave. Make sure you have all your belongings." The flight attendant explained over the intercom. You had only your bag, which held your toothbrush, hairbrush, a couple of clothes, one pair of pajamas, some pictures, and a couple of books. As you were leaving, the flight attendant glared at you, while she was talking to the captain and the other flight attendant. "I can't wait to be rid of her. She would not listen to me, when I explained protocol, that you could not have a book bag on you. If she only put the book bag on the overhang, than it would have been fine." The flight attendant complained. "She was so sassy, and impudent." The other flight attendant added. "You know it is not nice to talk about people behind their backs." You say while walking down the ramp to the runway. You hear deep laughter coming from the captain. "She showed you! Ha Ha! She is right!" The captain said.
You walked down the ramp to the entrance where you were suppose to be picked up. After an hour of waiting, a lady came over and asked "Are you lost? Do you need a lift anywhere?" "No and no." You respond in a cold voice, while you left. "I was only trying to be nice! I would have lent you my phone, or given you money for a cab." The lady shouted. You shrugged your shoulders "I do not need any help!" You shout as you walk away.
"Damn, that stupid perverted uncle of mine, forgetting me. I knew I should have talked to someone else on the phone, before leaving the states." You mumble as you walked, trying to find your way. You had tried calling the house, but no one answered the phone. Perhaps I should look for my cousin's school that is soon to become mine, you think as you look around. You had lived in Japan for only six years, from a baby until the age of six, and then had moved to the states. However, Japan had been the country of your heart.
After many hours of walking around, you finally found the school. You enter the gates, looking for the tennis courts. As you were walking around, you hear and see a bunch of girls crowded around a fence. You remember hearing from your cousin that their team had fan girls. As you walk closer you hear the girls shouting "Go Ryoma!" "Oh! Tezuka is Hot! He looks like he is older than fifteen." "Momo is funny, and cute!" "Eiji is amazing!" "Oishi is kind and caring" "I wish we could date them." You ignore the sighs of the girls and the fight starting between some girls about "Their man." as you walk to the gates.
You stand at the entrance of the courts, watching the team. You were amazed at the talent, determination, and the respect they had for each other. You could tell that this team would do anything for each other.
You find your cousin having a match against a brown haired boy. You do not want to interrupt, so you stay where you are and watch. "Itoko (cousin), you have improved a great deal. It seems you are creating your own moves. Maybe someday, you can defeat your father." You say quietly. "Hello Kira, did that perverted monk forget to pick you up?" You turn to see Surmire Ryuzaki. "Hey, old lady. Still the coach around here?" You ask. "Don't call me old lady, you brat." Ryuzaki responded with an irk mark on her head. You close your eyes and shrug. "So, are you going to try out for the tennis team? This year girls are allowed to join the regular's team, because the girls were doing so poorly." Ryuzaki told you. "No, I do not do tennis anymore." You say while shrugging. You could feel Ryuzaki's eyes staring holes into your head. "Why?!, You shouldn't let talent like yours go to waste." Ryuzaki said loudly. "Not so loud. I do not want to call attention." You say in a whisper. "Than tell me WHY!" Ryuzaki said louder. "Because I have lost interest." You simply say. "I see. This does not have to do with your family, does it? They would want you to be happy." Ryuzaki said. You do not respond. "I see. Perhaps the team can change your mind." Ryuzaki responds with a sigh. "I have found a new interest." You respond with a shrug.
You turned your attention back to your cousin's match. You could see that the brown haired boy had a lot more power, than what he was showing. However, as the match continued, you could see him starting to show more of his strength. Interesting, you thought. It seems my cousin makes people want to give it their all.
Soon it started to rain. "Everyone, it is time we went in." Ryuzaki shouted. Everyone made a mad dash into the school building. However, your cousin and the brown haired boy continued to play. "Get inside now! You can play tennis against each other anytime. It would not be wise if one of you guys got hurt." Ryuzaki shouted. With that said the two boys slowly walked back into the building. You walked along side Ryoma, not saying anything.
As you enter the building, you see a smile plastered on Ryuzaki's face. "Who is that girl?" A guy with black spiky hair asks. "That is Ryoma's cousin." Ryuzaki responds. You roll your eyes. "Nani? (what?) Ryoma has a cousin?" The black spiky haired one asked, along with a girl in pigtails. "Fssh! Do you not have cousins! Baka! (idiot!)." A guy with a bandana responds. "You Mamushi (snake!)" The black haired boy shouts. A fight breaks out, but you ignore it. Ryoma turns to you and says "itoko!" and rushes to hug you.
"Nani! (what!) Ryoma, has a caring side?" everyone shouted, except a golden-brown haired boy with glasses. "Kira, this is my team." Ryoma said while ending the hug and pointing at each person. Ryoma pointed at a red haired boy, who looked and acted like a cat. "This is Eiji. And This is Captain Tezuka" pointing at the stoic boy, who seemed older than he was. "This is Vice-captain, Oishi." pointing at a guy with a buzz cut and two bangs. "This is takeshi Momoshiro." "But you may call me Momo." Momo said while trying to take your hand and kiss it, but you quickly move close to the brown haired boy, whom Ryoma had been playing. And Ryoma continues with introductions, ignoring the depressed Momo. "This is Takashi Kawamura." Pointing to a guy with orangish brown hair, with his bangs in a swirl. You remember that this guy has a split personality, and is loud and energetic with a racquet, but without it he was quiet and shy. "This is Kaoru Kaido." Pointing to a guy that sounds and acts like a snake. Then Ryoma points to a guy who has been writing in his notebook furiously, since you were introduced. Ryouma sweat drops and says "This is inui." You notice that you could never see the boy's eyes. And finally, Ryoma points to the guy behind you. You turn around, and come face to face with a boy who never seems to stop smiling. The boy had his eyes open, and it startled you, because you could feel his hidden power. You had seen the boy's eyes open when Ryoma and him were playing, but up close, it was like your soul was being read. "This is Fuji." You quickly step away from him, which made it seem like you were nervous. But, you recover yourself by bowing to the team in greeting. "It is a pleasure to meet you all." You say while rising up from the bow.
I Hope you enjoyed.
