This was written solely by me, Dark. Since Morbid has yet to see the POT movie(something I must change).

I was brothered that in the movie no one said anything about Ryoga putting Ryoma in that much danger(even if he didn't have much control of the situation), so I wrote this. I hope Ryoga and Fuji are in character. And please review.


"You want to play a match with your brother."

Ryoga walked away, the honor student's stoic words still in his head. Shaking his head slightly, the dark haired teenager reached the door. He knew Tezuka had left by now, but he couldn't shake the feeling someone was watching him. Before he could open the door a voice broke the silence once again.

"A match between brothers, interesting."

Ryoga turned to his right to see another of chibisuke's teammates. The boy had honey brown hair and was rather feminine in appearance; his eyes were closed and he wore a smile. Ryoga recognized the boy as Fuji Syusuke, a tennis tensai.

"It seems Seigaku has a habit of eavesdropping." He replied with the cocky grin that could only belong to an Echizen.

"Saa." Was the only answer Ryoga got. The tensai seemed to be waiting for something.

Getting slightly annoyed, Ryoga asked. "Is there any reason you're here?"

"You wanted to see him again?" Something about his tone of voice made it sound like a bad thing, but given the Seigaku group's situation…

"You mean chibisuke? It's an odd coincidence."

"I would think Sakurafubuki-san would want his tennis captain's advice on what team to," Fuji opened his eyes to reveal their intense blue color. " invite."

He couldn't help but be a little intimidated by the look on the other boy's face. However, Ryoga ignored the feeling. "That's how it would normally go."

"Most older brothers would do anything to protect their sibling."

Not really sure how to reply, the dark haired boy nodded his head. Fuji then continued his eyes held a look of controlled fury. "Not counting you. Echizen has eight older brothers." After that was said Fuji closed his eyes and walked off the wind playing with his hair.

Ryoga knew a threat when he heard one, and something told him Fuji would gladly go through with the threat. He also had a feeling that the seven other 'brothers' would turn a blind eye, if they weren't helping the tensai that is.

A few minutes later, Ryoga smirked as he went inside. At least he knew someone had been making up for his lost annoy chibisuke time.
