I've had this idea for a while, a story about his past and after reading the latest manga chapter of KnB, I had to do this.
~The Caged Tiger~
A Kuroko no Basket fanfic
Prologue
I do not own KnB.

Rakuzan was in the zone, their hope seemed to be slipping away more and more.
Kagami's fist unconsciously clenched tighter, that hope he was feeling... It was just slipping away now. 'It can't just end now, I'm so close to reaching the end.' A single tear slid down his cheek as his hair covered his face, he sat on the bench motionless as silence broke over Seirin during their final time out. Three minutes to go, and the score was 92-106. Rakuzan in the lead.
"Kagami-kun," Kuroko spoke up, noticing the tears on his light's face. Eyes turned to Kagami as they noticed their ever silent ace, but what stunned them was the tears that were slipping slowly down his face.
"Have I ever told you guys why I'm aiming to be the best in Japan? Why I work so hard to become number one?" Kagami asked in a low, quiet voice, shocking the Seirin team. They had never heard him speak that way before, he sounded so... vunerable, weak.
Kiyoshi was the first to recover from his shock, replying, "No, you never did, Kagami-kun."
Kagami's figure didn't move from its position, but he lips did. "We've heard Kuroko's story already and I guess you've all been wondering why I lived alone without my parents, and I've been trying to avoid telling you my past but I guess it can't be helped anymore." said Kagami as everyone silently took in his story. "You all deserve to know the truth," More tears began streaming the red head's face as his hands knitted together. "My childhood before America was not a beautiful one, I was a love child for one of Japan's most prominent family, and the reason why I came back to Japan was because I made a deal."
So this is just going to be a short story kind of thing. Reviews are much appreciated.
