Sakuragi yawned for the third time in the train. He is beginning to get bored. He turned to his right and smiled when he saw his kitsune sleeping soundly leaning on his shoulder. When he saw his captain, Akagi walked pass them, he quickly shoved Rukawa's head and pretended to be annoyed.

Flashback

During training as usual, Akagi suddenly called out the boys to gather in the gym. "Listen guys! Anzai sensei has an announcement to make," announced Akagi in his usual loud voice. Everyone turned their gaze at Anzai sensei who gave out his usual santa's laugh. "I am very impressed of your performance in the match with the Ryonan…" begin Anzai sensei. "Nyahahaha… it's all because of the tensai!" interrupted Sakuragi with his usual loud laugh. After that he received a blow at the back of his head from Akagi. Anzai sensei just laughed and continue his topic, "as a reward, I give you six, Akagi, Mitsui, Kogure, Miyagi, Sakuragi and Rukawa a vacation. The others stay for your practise and I also have to ask Ayako to stay with me to help this guys. The six of you are going to the country side hot spring inn for 4 days with Hanagata and Fujima of Shoyo, Maki, Jin and Kiyota of Kainan and finally Uozumi, Sendoh, Koshino, Hikochi, Ikegami and Fukuda of Ryonan. Their coaches and I have arranged the vacation for you so enjoy. Ho! Ho! Ho!"

Anzai sensei finished his speech with his usual laugh. After his announcement, he dismisses the six boys early. They quickly walked home and packed their things the first thing they reached home. All of them can't wait of the next day.

End of flashback

Now all the boys are in the train. Earlier that day, they met with the other team at the train station. As they entered the train, they took their seat.

Sakuragi and Rukawa were sitting together. Akagi was quite curious because both of them hate each other but he actually did not know that both of them are into that type of relationship. Sitting in front of them were Ikegami and Fukuda. Fukuda was staring blankly at the scenery while Ikegami just sat quietly looking at Sakuragi and Rukawa strange behaviour when he saw Akagi walked pass them.

Hanagata and Fujima were sitting together at the seat behind Sakuragi and Rukawa's. Hanagata was playing Final Fantasy XII in his PSP while Fujima reads the game guide book and tell Hanagata where to go or what to do. In front of them were Hikochi and Maki. Hikochi was busy sketching note of what he just discovered about the other players while Maki just listened to his CD-man.

Beside their seat were Sendoh, Koshino, Jin and Kiyota. Koshino leaned sleepily on Sendoh's shoulder as both of them listened to Sendoh's CD-man. Jin sits quietly in his seat reading a book while watching Kiyota sleep soundly beside him.

Mitsui watched Kogure sleepily who was reading in front of him. He also could hear Uozumi and Akagi's conversation but everything were just blurred to him. Finally he decided to lean down on his seat and have a sleep.

Miyagi sat on his seat lonely. Everyone got a partner to seat with but he not him. Like Akagi, he was also curious about Sakuragi and Rukawa sitting together. How he wish Ayako was here with him. Because he has no partner, he has to seat facing these two old couple. Suddenly the old man asked him where he is going. When Miyagi explained saying that he is going to a country side hot spring with his teams, both the old couple expression change suddenly. They did not say much but only these two words "be careful" came out from their mouth. Miyagi felt curious of the sudden change of atmosphere.

This is my first story.... Dunno whether the other reader will find it bored or they dun understand it. Well, if both then I'll try my best to write a better one next time.
