Introduction
This story doesn't follow the timeline for the prince of tennis series. I'm really only going to follow the story as far as roughly the Kantou finals, so I'll make references to the anime until then. I might make a few references from episodes after that randomly but it's not going to follow the same timeframe.
The setting for this story happens a few years later when everyone's graduated from Seigaku except Ryoma. He's the new captain of the tennis club and the rest have moved onto senior high school, yet they always seem to drop in here and there.
There may be some questions as to how I'm going to end this story pairing wise. To be honest, I'm not too sure how this will end up. I've got a rough storyline drafted, but the way this goes that might change because I kind of like to play it out and see what the characters in my head would like to do themselves rather then force them into my plot. So if you like a certain pairing and aren't open to an alternative ending, please don't read and please don't beg me to go one way or another. Haha, I have no real control over how this is going to end, it'll end how it does.
As for how long this goes for? It really comes down to how complicated I want this drama to be, so you'll just have to wait and see what kind of stories come out of it. Although, I'm not very good at characters other than the main Seigaku boys so if you're looking for rival schools, you'll probably have to go elsewhere because I don't seem to have much if any affinity with the other boys in the series.
And with that, I hope you enjoy the revised edition of "If Only".
Thank you.
