Ocean's Twelve
Summary: Oishi gets hit by a bus and is hospitalized. The regulars discover that Oishi knows too much and take drastic measures e.g. assassination to silence him. Sequel to Ocean's Eleven though you don't need to read that first. Still, it would really help if you did, because this is sort of a parody of Ocean's Eleven. (Not the movie. My fic.)
Disclaimer: I don't own PoT. How can I? My Japanese sucks.
Oishi Syuichiroh, one of the unluckiest people in the world, was on his way to meet his friends from the tennis club for a celebratory dinner on one especially beautiful evening. He looked up into the sky and sighed. The world was so beautiful, he was glad to be alive in it.
He never saw the bus coming straight at him.

"I'm hungry," Momo complained, having waited for more than an hour with the other regulars for Oishi but to no avail.
"He must have let his guard down…" Tezuka was saying when his cell phone rang. Tezuka answered it and turned all pale. He didn't even notice that Fuji was putting sticks into his hair for fun.
"Okay. We will be there in a moment," Tezuka hung up and looked at his teammates, all of them eager to know what had happened.
"Oishi is hit by a bus. He is now in the hospital."
Echizen Ryoma had to bite his lip very hard to hold back his tears when he saw his senpai unconscious in the hospital bed. An operation would require a lot of money. A modest family like Oishi's would not be able to produce so much money. They would need to rob a bank to get that much money in time.
Tezuka turned to his teammates, his tone emotionless and serious. "We must have a meeting in the club room. Now."
Ryoma was secretly touched. His buchou rarely showed affection for any of his club members, but when one of them was in trouble, he would willingly sacrifice his bright future to rob a bank to help him. Ryoma decided that he wanted to be a good captain just like Tezuka when he grew up.
When he reached the club room, Ryoma noticed that Tezuka had not only asked the regulars to come but also the freshmen trio and even Sakuno and Tomoka. It must be a pretty complicated bank-robbing plan to require the cooperation of so many people.
"Good, everyone is here. We can begin the meeting now," Tezuka said, standing in front of the clubroom whiteboard. They have all decided that a whiteboard was a useful thing to have in a clubroom after their previous bank-robbing experience, so they got themselves an even bigger one.
"Buchou, so what's our plan?" Momo said excitedly, currently in love with the word "buchou" .
"Yes, I knew I loved you before I met you, I think I dreamed you into life…" Tezuka said, tears streaming down his face.
"Stop being OOC!" Everyone screamed and threw things at Tezuka.
"Yes, as I just said, Oishi is in hospital now. We need a plan, so we can follow it without letting our guard down." Tezuka wrote down the word "PLAN" on the whiteboard.
Ryoma asked, "Are we robbing the bank across our school to attain the money for his operation again?"
"No," Inui took out a giant map, still hot as it had just came out of the printer, "this time our target is the hospital."
Ryoma asked, confused, "But can we get a lot of money in the hospital?"
"No, we are not after money this time. Oishi is not so seriously injured, he will live for some time," Inui said with a creepy smile.
"Then why…" Ryoma began, but was interrupted by Tezuka.
"Echizen, our goal this time is to assassinate Oishi."
Even Ryoma, who was relatively calmer than other boys his age, was shocked at this sudden statement that had come from his serious, righteous buchou. He was expecting someone to protest, but to his surprise no one did, not even Momo who loved protesting, Kaidoh who would never kill anyone, and the other five freshmen. Everyone looked quite composed and determined, as if they didn't find anything wrong with what Tezuka just proposed to do.
"This is probably a dream. Or maybe they are aliens masquerading as my teammates. Calm down, Ryoma, you must find your real captain." Ryoma told himself.
"Well, actually, this is what happened," Fuji explained to him, "When Tezuka picked up the phone, the nurse had said, 'Is this Mr. Tezuka who despises carrots?' And…"
"Don't tell him!" Tezuka barked at Fuji.
"Yes, as you can see, Tezuka hates it when others find out that he despises carrots, so…" Fuji went on with a smile.
"I said, don't tell him!" Tezuka's face turned as red as Eiji's hair. Even redder.
"So, we asked the nurse in the hospital, and we discovered that Oishi cares a lot about everyone, so he kept a small notebook about the habits of all his teammates, which is where the nurse discovered that Tezuka despises carrots. She also discovered that Inui likes to sleep naked, Momo's nickname in elementary school was 'little strawberry', and that Horio once peed in the school swimming pool…"
"Don't tell!" Horio turned as red as his captain did.
"You did?" Eiji asked in surprise, "I'm never swimming there again!"
"That's disgusting," Tomoka said, moving her chair away from Horio's.
Ryoma sighed and put in, "But guys, what does Oishi-senpai's caring about us have to do with our killing him?"
"Don't you understand, Echizen? These secrets must not be known to others. Oishi is too dangerous, so we can't let him live. It will be harder to attack him at his home, so we are going to kill him while he is still in the hospital," Inui explained calmly.
Ryoma was astounded. He thought that everyone was good friends, and now they were actually talking about killing a teammate just because he knew too much!
He turned to Katsuo and Kachiroh, searching for some support, "Don't you guys respect Oishi-senpai? Don't you guys think it's crazy to assassinate him?"
"He had a photo of me and Kachiroh kissing, and we don't want others to see it, so…" Katsuo stuttered.
"What, you two are going out? That's-" Ryoma paused, "-not that it's totally unexpected though…
Kachiroh cried earnestly, "No, it was an accident!"
"Whatever," Ryoma rolled his eyes, "but still… Kikumaru-senpai, don't you think that it's crazy to kill Oishi-senpai? He's your doubles partner!"
"I know. But that makes him extra dangerous… he had a far larger amount of my secrets than any other people's…" Eiji said tearfully from his corner.
"But this is still just too ridiculous!" Ryoma said.
"Echizen," Inui began, "it seems that you wear Yu-gi-oh underwear?"
Eiji said in surprise, "How did Oishi know that?"
Ryoma turned a bright shade of green.
"Fine! I'm in!"
To be continued. Thanks for reading! Reviews are very welcome. I'm sorry if this weren't your idea of a sequel... because this really didn't have much to do with the original. Anyway, I am wishing you all a merry Christmas! (Too early. )
