Seirin basketball team was going on a vacation, and this time, it was an actual vacation. It was the end of their senior year and the start of summer and, unlike their previous training trips, this was all about relaxation. Kiyoshi, being the carefree spirit he was, decided on a whim to organize the event. He called up Hyuga, who was studying in Tokyo, and asked him if he could round up some of the graduates. The old team captain in him, suddenly awaked by this call to leadership, went to work contacting members. This was not an easy task, seeing as many of the old players were now members of well-known university teams and had busy, rigorous training schedules. However, after some Hyuga-style encouraging, he was able to persuade the members into taking a short weekend vacation that certainly would not disrupt their training too much. After that was accomplished, all that was left was to bring along the recently graduated "first years"…
"Oi! Kagami!", Hyuga jogged up to him after catching a glimpse of his red hair. He had been following a map of Kyoshi's on where to find each of the players, however, he knew he'd find Kagami here, and was glad that he disregarded Kiyoshi's advice to go to Kagami's house.
"Hyuga? I didn't know you liked burgers! I've never seen you here before…oi shouldn't you be at university?" Kagami was surprised to see his old teammate and even more so to find out that he might also like burgers! What a shocking revelation!
Hyuga sighed a little. It seems that Kagami hadn't changed much, especially in the appetite department. Also, he was as fiery and passionate as ever. He chuckled it off, "Haha, I'm not much of a fan of burgers myself…but that's not important," he said as his glasses glared over, a cold wind swept through. "I'm here to ask you to attend a weekend summer vacation with the old team members." His body language gave off the subtle context of "you better come, you don't fucking know how much work I put into getting all of you idiots together." Kagami quirked an eyebrow at the sudden eerie atmosphere and shrugged, "I guess I wouldn't mind getting to see everyone again."
Hyuga sighed in relief. Now that he had Kagami on board, there was just one more person left to ask. "We'll be leaving May 21st, meet us in front of the High School. Okay? Hey…do you know where I could find Koroko though? He's the only person left that I have to ask…and I can't seem to find him anywhere."
"Hello Hyuga-senpai." Kuroko looked up at Hyuga with his usual blank expression. He was holding Tetsuya #2 who still donned a miniature Seirin jersey. He barked happily, recognizing the old captain.
"Gyuaah!" Hyuga couldn't help, but jump back a bit. He nervously pushed up his glasses, feeling a little embarrassed, "H-hello Kuroko. I guess you heard everything I said, so you'll be coming as well?"
"Sure." He replied without hesitation. Hyuga nodded, beginning to regain his composure, "A-Alright! I will be seeing you both May 21st in front of the high school! Be there!" Hyuga glared and then jogged off.
He really should have gotten used to Kuroko appearing without warning, but he couldn't ignore the fact that he almost had a heart attack nearly every time it happened. That little brat…why hadn't he said anything since the beginning? He clenched his fists, but began to loosen them.
Now that he thought about it, it was good to see Kagami and Kuroko were still friends. They had always had a strange relationship, one that he saw blossom on the court, but had never been able to place his finger on outside of a basketball environment. He wondered if they often hung out together after school in the past. What had they been up to? Anyways, he needed to catch the train back to his house! It was getting late!
