Hey guys! This is a little something that I have been thinking about for quite a bit so I wrote it! I reread it a few times so there shouldn't be any spelling errors and mistakes.

Inside the gym of the Senshinkan Kōkō, over 20 boys stood, all freshmen. Within these boys, is a boy who came after he received a scholarship, the boy whose name was known all over the basketball circuit of Japan, Kuroko Tetsuya, or better known as, The Phantom.
Standing at the average height of 168, this boy is about as unnoticeable as one gets, and that is a ability that he uses to his advantage.
Next to him, is his childhood friend, Ogiwara Shigehiro, who has decided to retake basketball and hopefully get to smack each member of the so called, "Prodigies", in the face.
A man who seems to be in his mid-twenties was standing in front of them, clearing his throat, he welcomed the boys in front of him, "Welcome to the Senshinkan basketball club, this club is the pride and joy of our school, I am Coach Itsukita, and I am looking forwards to working with you all this year."
"Hai, Coach!" The freshmen replied, eager to start the tryout.
Itsukita continued, "after last year, two of our regulars graduated and I am looking forward to seeing if any of you have the potential to take their places."
Ogiwara turned to his childhood friend, "this is so exciting! Right, Tet-Chan?" The teal haired boy next to him merely nodded.
"Without further ado, the tryouts shall now begin!"
For the tryouts, the Coach had the boys shoot from the free throw and three pointer line. The two positions that needed to be filled in are the small forward and point guard position, during the tryouts, Kuroko spotted some players with good potential, he made 4 of the five free throws, 2 of the five three pointers. Those were never his forte anyways, they're more Midorima's thing.
For the ball handling, he breezed through the cone dribbling, and easily drove past the person he was supposed to pass, all in all, Kuroko was an amazing player.
After the tryouts, Itsukita had them team up and play each other, there were four teams, Kuroko and Ogiwara teamed up with a black haired boy named Takahashi Haruto, Kuroko had thought that his talent should be enough for him to at least be a benchwarmer, and a pair of brunette twins, Satō Sora and Satō Riku.
Ogiwara played as small forward, Takahashi, being the tallest, was nominated as Center, Sora was Shooting Guard, and Riku was Power Forward, leaving Kuroko with the Point Guard position. Their first game was against a team that consisted of a American transferee, who played Center, he was around 20 inches taller than Kuroko, at 187 cm.
The game started as Takahashi and the American Center lined up at the middle, the referee blew his whistle and threw the ball up, both boys jumped but Takahashi was shorter so the enemy center tipped the ball towards the small forward of the opposing team, the small forward immediately charged forward, dribbling, and trying to find an opening to shoot as Ogiwara blocked him, he passes to the power forward, but the ball never reached as Kuroko intercepted and passed the ball to Sora, who was shocked, but managed to shoot the ball in with a flawless throw, earning their team 2 points.
The game was only for ten minutes, but Kuroko proved that his title of "The Phantom" was not misplaced as he drove through enemies and shot the ball through the center's hand, he mostly passed and intercepted, doing his job of point guard by creating plays, his teammates proved his guess right as they unconsciously started playing better and better.
Sora made shots after shots, boosting their score rapidly, Riku stormed through the defense, although he was stopped a few times, Takahashi blocked the balls and even went in for a dunk once, the hoop squeaking at his weight. Ogiwara switched alternating from offense and defense with rapid speed, showing skills that one can only display if they played basketball since childhood. With Kuroko's help, their team had won all of their games, some with close calls and some which they breezed through.
Finally, the coach yelled at them to line up, "I will be announcing the results, for those who will be granted a Jersey and a spot on the bench, Number 13, Suzuki Asahi, Number 11, Satō Riku, number 10, Satō Sora, and Number 14, Takahashi Haruto!"
The American returnee and their teammates lined up to get their measurements taken, Itsukita continued, "the two who will be filling in for the regular spots, Number 8, Ogiwara Shigehiro, Small forward, and number 7, Kuroko Tetsuya, Point guard!"
Ogiwara cheered and pumped his fist in the air as he whooped, Kuroko smiled a genuine, and happy smile.

After the tryouts, the new members met their senpais, the Center, Itō Yuuta, the Power Forward, Saito Touma, and the Shooting Guard, Watanabe Ryusei.
They all have different personalities and odd perks, Saito is a cheerful and whiny Second Year, he had dirty blonde hair, he is always seen chewing gum and wouldn't go anywhere without his skateboard.
Itō is the captain, he is a serious and mature guy, but he is as sadistic as any captain is, his hair is brown and he is a third year, he really likes cooking and always brings food for the team, in other words, he is the "Mother" of the team.
Watanabe is a second year, he is a carefree baby with a addiction to spicy things, he never goes anywhere without his pocket knife, and he is a perverted flirt, always chasing after and flirting with the opposing team's manager, and their own manager.
Speaking of their manager, Saito Mio, their power forward's twin sister, also has her brother's dirty blonde hair, she always wear roller skates and aren't afraid to kick Watanabe with them when he needs to be "disciplined" she takes care of the team and is very strict towards their training.
All in all, Kuroko believes that he had chosen a good team.
How is it? This is just a introduction, another update should hopefully be coming soon! Reviews are welcomed!
