This is torture, I have ideas what to write, but in the middle, I became unmotivated...

Tenipuri belongs to Konomi-sensei


The School Kumiko Goes To

Rikkaidai's First Day

This is Kumiko's first day at school, and she'll be lying if she said she's not nervous. She's even more nervous now than the first time she played in a tournament. This is Rikkai we're talking about, the school that everyone always talks about aside from Hyoutei. Kumiko just hoped that she gets in not because of luck, and if she does, she's in for heaps of trouble.

"Take a deep breath, nii-chan said it's going to be fine and it will be." Kumiko whispered to herself before blending in with the crowds and entered the school building before trying to find her class.

1-C… 1-C… there it is!

Kumiko quickly opened the door of her assigned class and quickly tried to find a good seat facing the board. When Kumiko was satisfied with her seat she sat down and tried to calm herself down from all her anticipation, excitement and most of all, anxiety.

"Hey there, do you mind if I sit here?" Kumiko turned her head and saw a girl looking at her while pointing at the empty seat next to her.

"Sure…!" Kumiko quickly said, not wanting to make anyone wait, especially if she's her classmate. Kumiko watch as the girl placed her bag… isn't that a kendo stick?

"I forgot to introduce myself, the name's Rika. What's yours?"

"I'm Kumiko… Tezuka Kumiko." Both of them bowed their heads to one another and stared at each other for a while before smiles break out of their faces.

"I think we're going to be good friends, don't you? Can I call you Kumi instead?"

"Sure! And can I call you Rika-chan?"

"Of course! Nice to meet you, Kumi-chan!"

"Rika-chan, is that a kendo stick you got there? Are you trying out in the kendo club? I thought we haven't chosen our clubs yet…"

"This is for the kendo class I had after school, I think I'm going to enter the Karate club… strange isn't it for a girl?" Kumiko quickly shook her head and smiled at Rika.

"I don't think it's weird, I think it's amazing! You really like martial arts, don't you Rika-chan?"

"You can say that. But how did you know about kendo anyway?"

"My grandfather used to tell me about it, he showed me the basics. He works as a police instructor… I think."

"Really? That's so cool! Are you going to enter the kendo club?"

"I'm not that good though… I think I'm going to play tennis instead." Kumiko said, looking towards her tennis bag on the floor.

"Even if you're entering the tennis club, I don't think you're going to play right away, right?" Kumiko then pulled out her phone and showed Rika a message from an unknown sender.

"You see, Rika-chan, I just got this message in the morning, telling me to bring my own tennis racket… I don't know if this way a challenge or not, but for some reason I feel like I should bring it."

"Aren't you at least worried? What if it was fake? What if it's a bad person instead?"

"I'll hit him with my racket instead then, I never really think about it that way…"

"You're quite an optimistic person, aren't you?"

"Nii-chan told me that even though I should keep my guard up, it's not good to always see things in a bad way. Yudan sezu ni ikou, he said."

"He~… your brother must really be a good person…" Rika said before suddenly both girls turned their heads towards the door when they heard it open harshly. Both Kumiko and Rikkai watch as a silver haired boy, a red haired boy together with a brown haired glasses boy and a bald foreign-like boy. Kumiko could feel herself sweating out cold sweat when she recognized those four people standing at the door.

"Hey, hey, they look like seniors, what are they doing here? Aside from the brown haired guy and the bald one, the two other seemed suspicious. We better not look at them, Kumi-chan, they might be bad people. Oy, Kumi-chan?" Rika looked towards the frozen Kumiko and tried to wave in front of her eyes to snap her out of her daze.

"She's here, she's here she's here she's here!" Rika heard the red-haired person said and her eyes widened when suddenly the silver-haired one turned towards them, or towards Kumiko to be precise.

"Kumi-chan! Kumiko! Wake up! Its dangerous!" Rika said, shaking Kumiko who turned towards her and was about to open her mouth before the silver-haired boy launched at Kumiko, almost making both of them fall on the floor if it was not for the bald person holding onto the chair.

"I got her!"

"Niou-kun, I don't think she's responding… and you're scaring away her first friend. What will Yukimura-kun say about this?" Niou looked at the frozen Kumiko and the pointing Rika before smirking.

"Puri." Yagyuu then hit his partner on the head before bowing towards the still staring Rika.

"I'm very sorry about that, but you don't have to worry, we're not here to harm her. We know her, as well as she knows us. My name is Yagyuu, sorry for the intrusion." Rika then blinked at Yagyuu before nodding.

"I'm Rika, b-but Kumi-chan is…" Kumiko then snapped out from her shock and glared at Niou who is grinning at her.

"Niou-senpai! What do you think you're doing? Why do you have to send me that message about me bringing my racket!"

"I thought you said you don't know the sender, Kumi-chan…" Kumiko then turned towards Rika before turning towards the four male seniors in front of her.

"Well… I have a feeling Niou-senpai is the one who sent me that message since he's trying to be scary. And my number… must be Yanagi-senpai."

"As expected from our Kumiko." Marui said, ruffling Kumiko's hair.

"Well, we were actually going to just give Yukimura's message to you… but since Niou-kun decided to, well…"

"Sei-senpai? What did he say?"

"He just wanted you to come to the tennis court later on, the boys' club tennis court."

"B-But I… the boys…"

"Well, that's Yukimura's order. And the school is about to start, so if you'll excuse us. Come on Niou-kun."

"Bye-Bye, Miko. Piyo." Marui then ruffled Kumiko's hair once again before leaving as Jackal decided to pat Kumiko on the head before leaving with the others.

"Kumi-chan… you know those people…?"

"They're from the tennis club… I've known then since around two years ago…"

"Two years?" Rika said as Kumiko realized that her classmates are all staring at her. Kumiko then let her head fall onto her desk before whimpering.

"… Today is not a good day for me…" Kumiko whimpered as Rika decided that patting her new friend's back is the only way to cheer her up.

"Well… at least you know some people, right? They look like interesting people…" Kumiko then whimpered again.

"I'm going to die today, aren't I?"


Read and review! Hope you guys like it!

This story is supposed to be a moment taken out if Kumiko goes to which schools, but I think Fudoumine is out of the option, Shitenhouji is too because it's in Osaka, St. Rudolph is out because Kumiko would have to stay in dorms (but I haven't decided on that one). I think I'm going to make Hyoutei and Seigaku... or maybe St. Rudolph... any suggestion?

And today I just finished download Tenipuri Festa 2011 and 2009 and I was in heaven. All those amazing Tenipuri seiyuu in one places singing Tenipuri songs

Now I finally know how Marui's seiyuu looks like... And Showtaro Morikubo-san is as amazing as ever! Minagawa JunJun and Sacchin too!
