Hiya! FemaleRoxasHerself here!
To start off, I'll just say, I love Kuroko no Basuke, it's hilarious how serious the sports anime's are, and then. With all their 'super moves', or whatever their called. Am I the only person who laughed the first time they announced the 'Phantom Drive'? I fell off my chair!
Any who, here we go!
Warnings: Protective GoM. Fem!Kuroko, Fem!Kise, Fem!Takao, Fem!Himuro, Fem!Micbuchi, and Fem!Mayuzumi. (Well, if my name doesn't imply anything…?) (Note, there are more gender bends but these are the mains…I guess?)
Pairings: (oh dear lord-what was I thinking?!)
How abouts I only mention a few to start us off? of I'll have a full page here…
One sided Aida Riku (male) x Hyuuga Junko (female) (I am cruel…But I have other parings for them both, . one sided on Aida's part, Hyuuga just doesn't see him that way…)
Mitobe Rin (female) x Koganei Shinji (male) (not happened yet, it's building—for now, their just really close friends; p )
Tsuchida Satoshi x Izuki Shika (female) (it's already in place, I made it that way, because Tsuchida's the only member with a girlfriend, so I made Fem!Izuki the girlfriend. Just an idea.)
Kagami Taiga (male) x Kuroko Tetsuna (female) (Major one-though not really featured yet…)
This one's just focusing on Sierin for now, and seeing as everythong always focuses on Kuroko and Kagami, I thought I'd shift the spot light a little in this one :) Don't worry, though. The others will come :)
And, I'm not focusing just on Seirin. Here's be snippets of the other schools. Also, I have a Vignette sereies that will be running along side this
I hope I can get the characterization right, sorry if anyone is OOC, and if you think so, fel free to tell me :)
Also, this is Unbeta'd. Sorry about any spelling mistakes and such… I'm just a little lazy.
And god, I just realised how many smiley faces I used…
Chapter 1: Phantom
A KnB fanfic: so deal with it!
{++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++}
The seat across the table had been void of presence for the last 15 minutes, and Adia Riku had to admit, staring (or was he glaring at it?) from his position behind the table might not have been helping any.
Huffing, he lifted a hand, fiddling with the two bobby pins on the left side of his fringe, keeping the majority of it out of his eyes. Short scruffy caramel hair, sticking up a little about his head, brown eyes matching it.
There was practically no potential in this crowd that he could, well, none that he could see, even if he was trained to do so.
"A few more would have been nice…" He grumbled, leaning back in the chair, closing his eyes, and giving up on the scanning, his eyes were starting to hurt.
"We couldn't even get ten…" Hyuuga Junko agreed, fiddling with a strand of her black shoulder blade length locks that had escaped her ponytail at the back of her head, the pinkie of the same hand pushing her thin oval shaped rimmed glasses up her nose, obscuring her dark eyes. A tallish young woman, taller than Riku, only by half a head, but still taller.
"I know we're just getting started and all, but c'mon! By this time next year, if we win the Inter-High and Winter cup, we'll have too many applicants!" Aida insisted, throwing his arms up theatrically, still leaning back in the chair.
Hyuuga dropped the lock of hair, and turned her head to him, her gaze narrowed, and to Aida, it was more of a playful glare than anything.
"Are you purposefully putting pressure on me, Riku?
He opened one eye, looking up at her, as she stood next to his chair, arms crossed.
"Hyuuga, c'mon. You can take it, you were so close last year."
"Please don't mention that…" she drew off, tucking her arms in a little closer, not so much crossing them, as cradling her stomach, looking away, her eyes gaining that faraway look.
"You're going to have to tell the juniors something, they'll find out eventually—"
"What, tell them how we lost the game, and a teammate…? Riku, not all of us have recovered from that…"
"I know—but it's not like he won't be back! You heard him, Hyuuga. He said he'd be back this year."
"I know... I know, it's just, should he, is the question, I mean, that injury…"
"I know what you mean, Hyuuga, but we might… he…"
The conversation drew off, as it just became hard to continue. It'd never been an easy subject for any of them. Especially between Aida and Hyuuga.
Sighing, as the awkward silence grew, he picked up his styraphoam cup, lifting it to his lips, picked up the one that was meant to be hers, before he drank that too, and offered it to her.
Her small, but calloused hands wrapped around it, as she seemed to just stare into the liquid, thinking.
Taking a sip, and leaving the cup rim against his lips, Aida couldn't take the tense silence between them.
"I wonder how the recruitment is going…?" He mentioned off handedly, glancing to the side at her, through the thicker part of his fringe where it was gathered. "If they could bring in some promising ones… maybe…" there was no real need to continue, it was lost.
She didn't look at him, and raised the cup to her lips, muttering something about how it probably wasn't going well, because they hadn't brought anyone back.
She took a drink as she trailed off, and then the shadow fell over the table, she took a look at the owner, turning her head, she proceeded to spit-take, losing her mouthful in surprise, leaving it dribbling down her chin as she stared up at the massive red-head.
She only knew one person who was probably this tall, and he hurt to talk about, and he didn't seem this intimidating, his red eyes set in an (un)intentional almost-glare, and then they both noticed that the tall junior had Koganei hanging by his collar form the giants hand.
"The new students are here…" he whimpered, tears trailing down his face, mouth drawn up, resembling an unhappy cat.
"What...in the…" Hyuuga drew off, by now, in surprise, she'd crushed the cup, and the coffee was all over the cement, and luckily, none on her uniform.
The two could do little but stare up at the huge guy, wide-eyed.
"Is this the basketball club?" he rumbled, his words sounded a little choppy, but the language was fluent enough, it was like he hadn't spoken Japanese's in a while, and yet, he knew the language (?).
Aida could do nothing but nod at him, something akin to shock, and maybe a little bit of fear in his eyes.
"I want to join." the guy rumbled, as he put Koganei down, and stepped over the chair, settling into it in an easy manner. His legs where almost ridiculously long.
"Uh…" Aida didn't answer, until Hyuuga kicked the side of his chair, snapping out of his daze, and making him glare up at her briefly, before reaching for the papers and a pen. "W-Welcome!"
The guy seemed to ignore the rest of the chatter, as Aida tried to explain a little about the club to him; how long they'd been together, what they'd won, how far they gone in the tournament—but he had no interest, signing the papers before him, and he stood, stepping back over the chair instead of around it, and left as quickly as he's appeared.
The head of twin toned black and startling red stood above the crowd, as that large back retreated from their sights.
From looking at the guys back, all three sets of eyes seemed to turn to the paper that he'd left, the pen lying atop it.
"Kagami Taiga…" Muttered Hyuuga, leaning on the table to see, holding her glasses up with her other hand as she peered forwards.
"Hey, he didn't put anything in the 'reason for joining' column." Koga pointed out.
"Huh?"
"He really didn't."
"He's terrifying!" Koganei screeched, cutting in, face pale, and he still shock with fright, throwing his arms up, the tears that he'd managed the stop, started welling in the corners of his eyes again. "Is he really a first-year student!? I don't believe it!"
"He's defiantly one in a million." said Izuki, walking up to the table as the crowd was thinning out, with Mitobe following behind her.
Koganei whipped around, and pointed an accusing finger at Izuki, tears still streaming down his face.
"Where the hell where you?! You left me to get kidnapped!"
"Uh… sorry… we wouldn't have been able to fight him off…"
Mitobe Rinn wordlessly stepped forward, and ran a finger under Koga's eye, taking some of the remaining tears off his cheeks, and petting his head in a way that told him she was apologising, her mouth drawn into a thin line, worry, and her eyes soft, sorry. Somehow, he was the only one who understood her.
"Thanks Mitobe…" he sniffed, whipping his other eye.
She silently smiled down at him, straightening up from how she'd bent to be a face level to him.
Hyuuga looked to the paper, scanning other details.
"It seems… Kagami-kun went to middle school in America."
"He could have learned Basketball while there…?" Asked Izuki.
"Either way, I'm sure he'll be a great addition!" Aida said confidently, and the sparkles that formed in his eyes told the other team members that he was already dreaming of a first-place tournament trophy, as he gathered the few papers, not really watching what his hands where doing, but staring into space.
Coming back to reality, he frowned at how many where signed, a merger four, and a stack of untouched paper. Damnit.
Standing from his seat, he started to leave the table.
"Oh, hey! Riku!" Koganei called suddenly, and looking back he leant over from the other side of the table, a sheet in his hand that he held up. "You forgot this one."
"Huh? Oh." he back tracked, plucking it from Koga's fingers. "I only saw four people sign…? What?"
"Kuroko Tetsuna… hmm?" Hyuuga read over his shoulder, standing next to him.
Aida held it closer to his face.
"I was at that desk the whole time, and I didn't notice a fifth—huh?" His eyes trained on a few words that stood out now he really looked.
This person, whoever they were, and whatever they were, had been a part of the Teikou Middle School Basketball club, and it said on the paper, first string. And if they were a first year…. there was a huge chance they were from the so called 'Generation of Miracles' .
Too many things stacked up for it to be a coincidence.
First year, was in the first string (only the really good ones where in there!), and from that school and team—they had to be!
Elsewhere, a small boned, shorter than average girl, with long, pale blue hair, and equally blue, emotionless eyes, glided through the noisy crowd, a book perched in her fingers. She passed by a tall red head, who didn't acknowledge her existence—like everyone else, but she continued past, nothing touched, or contacted her.
A shadow among the student body.
