Troublemaker

Chapter 1

Summary: Atobe Keigo's younger 12 year old younger half brother is coming to Japan and with him a maelstrom of trouble. As much as the Seigaku regulars want to teach the brat a lesson they couldn't because he just might be their ticket to the Nationals with his extraordinary tennis skills.

Prologue

San Francisco, California

Near the rocky Cliffside with a 200 m drop stood a mansion like house owned by the Echizens. A quaint little family consisting of Echizen Nanjiroh, a famous almost legendary Tennis player, his 2nd wife, Echizen Atobe Sakura, the widowed wife of Billionaire Atobe Mikage. The two had met in one of the parties for the social elites back when the both of them were just picking themselves up from the deaths of their spouses. At first it had been a casual friendship which turned into something more. No more than 7 months later they had married. Nanjiroh had let Sakura and her son keep the name of Atobe much to their gratitude.

Their children were the light of both their lives. Both of them wouldn't have had made it, if it weren't for their little angels. Nanjiroh had two beautiful boys; Echizen Ryoga was his first child. Ryoga was Nanjiroh's bastard son. Ryoga's mother was someone that Nanjiroh had an affair with roughly 13 years ago. Nanjiroh only heard of Ryoga a little bit too late. When Rinko had died, a letter came to him informing him of his bastard son. Knowing that his beautiful wife would have taken in the child he quickly took off and came back with Ryoga. It seemed that Ryoga's mother had abandoned him in an orphanage with a letter saying of the, who's and the why's that should have been asked. It was only when Rinko died that a letter reached to Nanjiroh saying that though they were sorry for his wife's death, he had a son that he could take in if he was willing. Nanjiroh couldn't be happier that there was another that he could cherish so near to the time that he lost the love of his life.

Ryoga had inherited the roughness of his father's physical appearance. He had dark blackish-emerald green hair that seemed to reflect light. He had also inherited the skill that made their family so famous for. Tennis was the backbone of the Echizens. A lot of things wouldn't have happened if it weren't for the sport. And it seemed to overflow to the next generation as well, as it seems that Ryoga had inherited his father's natural born potential for tennis.

Echizen Ryoma was Nanjiroh's and Rinko's only son. To both of them, Ryoma was an angel. He had inherited more of his mother's beauty than his father's roughness. He had the distinctive hair that signified him as an Echizen, a blackish-emerald green hair and seemed to glow. Ryoma had a cherubic aura on him and was easily liked. If not a little bratty and stubborn but was forgiven as it seemed it ran on in their bloodline. Ryoma was six years younger than his older half brother, Ryoga but nonetheless inherited great pontential for tennis from both his parents.

Then there was their newly adopted brother who both Ryoma and Ryoga had come to love as their own as the months pass as their parents danced around each other. Atobe Keigo or Echizen Atobe Keigo was a stunning child. Smart, quick witted and possessed a sharp tongue, he had surprisingly had potential to be one of the greatest in the Tennis world, or so Nanjiroh says. Keigo was a vain little child. He was the only child of Atobe Mikage, President of the International Multi-Billionaire Company, Atobe Inc and Atobe Sakura now Echizen Atobe Sakura.

Keigo had inherited his mother's beauty but with the distinct masculinity from his father. Unlike Ryoma who could be mistaken for a girl at times, Keigo can be easily defined as a boy but with exceptional beauty, a beauty that could only be possibly found in old nobilities.

Despite the fact that they'd only been officially recognized as siblings just over 3 months ago with Nanjiroh adopting Keigo, Keigo was already fiercely protective of Ryoma and looked up to Ryoga with awe and respect. Keigo had only started to learn Tennis and was a fast learner and there it showed his true potential in the World of Tennis. But compared to Ryoga's astounding progress, his to younger siblings were just novices. But Nanji-tousan said to them that in time their skills will sky rocket like their eldest brother. He said to them that they were springs that were trapped behind rocks but as they practice and grow stronger, they'll break free of their bind and their skills will blossom like a newly formed waterfall.

For many of the social elites, the Echizen family was an enigma yet to be solved. They could rise higher than any of them combined but chose to stay low and not grasp what was in reach.

At present time, in the Cliff Mansion that was surrounded by the Echizen Orange Farms in California were the children of the Echizens along with two others. They were playing a game of Doubles Tennis with Ryoga as acting Referee. Ryoma was paired with a boy that looked at the very least 3 years older than Ryoga, who was 12 at present time, when in fact the boy in question was only 7, a year older than Ryoma. The boy's name was Sanada Genichirou, his family temporarily moved to California for Professional reasons. He had met the Echizens at a party for social elites back when they first arrived in America. The three children, though already used to formal events felt that the party was stuffier than usual. The three were out in the balcony sitting on the rafters looking at clear dark skies littered with stars. One thing led to another and Genichirou found himself invited over the Echizen estates for play dates.

There was another boy who had partnered up with Keigo, a boy who for all intents looked like his age but had a serious, unnerving face. The boy's name was Tezuka Kunimitsu. The Tezukas had always had close ties to the Atobes, with Sakura being Kunimitsu's distant aunt; they came to visit as the date of Rinko's death neared.

The children were about to start their game, each of them waiting for the signal to start.

"Alright everyone, let's get the show on the road," Ryoga began in a loud voice, slicing through the thick silence like a knife through butter, "One set match; Chibisuke-Gen-chan Pair to serve."

From the base line, Ryoma gulped nervously and his right hand clutched his racket even tighter; his left hand toyed around with the ball. Sensing the youngest one's nervousness, Gen, Kuni and Keigo offered Ryoma their smiles that were rare on the first two.

"You can do this, Ryo-chan" Keigo said, "Gambatte!!"

Ryoma returned the smiles and nodded. Keigo, Kunimitsu and Ryoga just had a sort of telepathic communnication as they nodded to each other with smiles that they cheered the young one up. As Gen turned his attention back to their opponents, Ryoma got ready to serve. He threw the ball in to the air and as he hit it across the net, the match officially began.

Echizen Atobe Sakura is an OC of mine. Looks like Keigo but more feminine and much more beautiful, not Sephony's

Atobe Mikage OC of mine as well, supposed to be Keigo's blood father.
