The IQ Test
Prologue: Pop Quiz!
Normal POV
Tezuka scanned over the tennis courts of Seishun Gakuen. The regulars were just about ready with their quick warm-up.
"Seigaku regulars, gather!" He called out.
All of the regulars: Momo-chan, Oishi, Fuji, Eiji, Taka-san, Echizen, and Kaidoh, plus the manager, Inui, jogged over to Tezuka.
"Good morning and thank you for warming up swiftly." Tezuka said in his usual, cold manner. "Today, Inui has a special training menu in store for us, so we will not be needing our rackets."
A gasp traveled through the small crowd.
"B-But I never let go of my racket," Echizen whined. "I even go to sleep with it."
Inui adjusted his glasses with a devilish glint in his eye.
"Ii, data."
"Well…uh, could we still bring our tennis rackets even though we won't be using them?" Oishi asked, trying to set up a compromise.
"No, the training you are doing will involve the brain-," Inui started.
"Crap!" Momo-chan interrupted. "Oh, uh… Sorry senpai, you can continue."
"Thank you. As I was saying, the training you will do will involve your brain power, and for many of you, holding the racket gives a sense of relief or concentration. Or it may give strength and take away common sense." Inui glanced at Taka-san, who would only hold his racket when playing a match.
"So uh… Senpai, what's the training?" Kaidoh asked gruffly.
Inui pushed up his glasses and answered, "The IQ Test: Inui Style."
