A/N: Nyah! At last I get to post a chapter-story! I know that this will be a cliche. Nevertheless, I wanted to try writing a fic like this. Okay not so sure about the rating and genre. Do correct me if I'm wrong.
Disclaimer: I do not own POT, Konomi-sensei does. I only own my OCs and the story.

Chapter 1: TENNIS
"Game and match won by Yuki Keira! 7-5"
The crowd went wild. The result was unexpected. Everyone expected her opponent and her sister, Riku to win but it was the opposite. In the end Keira had beaten her sister.
"Nice game," the blue-haired girl handed her hand to her opponent a.k.a. her sister.
"I do not need your sympathy," the red head refused the hand offered to her. "Inside you're very happy that you have finally beaten me."
"I-it's not that Riku-neesama," Keira defended.
"Quit your yapping!" Riku shut her up. "I'm outta here!"
"Oi Oi, that girl can't accept defeat"
"Well, that's what being number 1 & hitting rock bottom is all about"
"Such a waste"
"Riku-neesama," Keira said softly.
"Are you satisfied?" an orange-haired-girl asked.
"R-Rika-neesama!" Keira exclaimed.
"I'll take revenge for defeating my sister," Rika challenged her.
"R-Rika-neesama," Keira looked at her elder sister. All of her siblings had turned against her.
"Get ready," Rika's voice was serious and to the point.
"O-one set match Y-Yuki Rika to serve"
The game started and it was an all out game. Everyone was awed with the match especially with Keira's abilities…
"Whoah! That Keira girl is amazing!"
"Tell me about it. She's rallying well with a regular who is in high school student"
"Just how good is she?"
"Game and match, 7-6! Won by Yuki Keira"
The crowd even went wilder than a while ago. Defeating both of her sisters in one day and one of them was high school regular. That was just very surprising.
"O-oneesama-tachi," Keira felt bad about winning. Her sisters' 'fans' were turning against them. Winning was good it felt good but stepping on someone like your sisters in the process is just twice, or maybe more as bad.
"Looks like they were no match for someone like her"
"She's just too amazing to be fighting with someone unsportsmanlike like them"
"Keira, I have heard that you had beaten my daughters and humiliated them in front of everyone," their mother looked at her and her two daughters grinned. "Is it true?"
"Its not like that—I—" Keira tried to explain.
"ANSWER MY QUESTION!!" their mother beamed at her.
"H-hai desu," she replied. Scared.
"Well then since you're so good in playing tennis," their mother circled the helpless Keira. "Why don't you take a break? A long break?"
"You mean—" Keira didn't like where this was going.
"Yes, as of today you will stop playing tennis," their mother said as if reading her mind. "That skill of yours is just too good to be improved so take a break."
"Demo oba-sama--!!" Keira tried to protest.
"You dare question my orders?!" their mother exclaimed.
"Iie, desu," Keira replied.
"I'm so glad she's my mom," Riku whispered to her sister who nodded in agreement.
"Well, my dear, you look desperate," their mother lifted her chin. "Since I'm a kind mother, I'll let you choose; education or tennis? If you choose education, you will continue your studies but you shall not play tennis ever again, and if you choose tennis, vice versa. So which will it be?"
"E-education," Keira had no other choice.
"Very good," their mother smiled and let her go. "For the next school year, you shall be studying at Seishun Gakuen. If we ever see you playing tennis or if you ever join the tennis club again, you will stop studying. Are we clear?"
"Hai, desu," she replied as her world started to fall. After her 'talk' with her mother, she did all of her chores as fast as she could. Then, headed straight to her bedroom, where she cried all night. "Why tennis?" she said as she sobbed. "Why take it away from me? Why tennis of all things? Why not my pride, my dignity or anything but not tennis? Tennis is the only thing that binds me together with onii-chan. Now that it's taken away from me, how will I be able to find him? Do they not know that tennis is my life? That—that tennis is me? Why did they do this to me?" At that very night she sobbed until she was out of tears to shed. Taking tennis away from her felt like ripping her to pieces. It was just very hard to accept that something that was attached to you is suddenly being taken away….
