CHAPTER 1:

And it all began…

Takeru Takaishi

"Takeru!" 1 of the boys with curvy hair called out to the blonde. "Go for it!" He continued as he made a pass to Takeru Takaishi, the Odaiba Basketball Team Captain, wanting him to go for a shot.

Takeru, no doubt, catches the ball swiftly and goes for a shot. He did everything fast and swift; the opponent hardly even had the time to stop him before he made a jump. As swift as lightning, Takeru made a jump the very moment he received the ball, he made a shot. He looked very determined in his shot; his sparkling blue eyes explained it all.

"Hoot!" The ball went in for a chop. It was beautiful, and smooth, the action that Takeru made as he released the ball. He landed and made a winning gesture, with 2 fingers high up in the air. "Yes!" He shouted. The other team members soon gathered around him, cheering and holding one another by the shoulder. It was kind of like a winning dance or sorts.

"Nice one there, CAPTAIN!" Hayato Ogiwara, the boy who made the pass, remarked Takeru as he pats him on the shoulder. He grinned at the blonde and Takeru eventually smiled.

"Nah, it's all thanks to you! Great pass there!" Takeru tried to be humble, as he pats his team members by the shoulder. "All right! Gather around everyone!" He called out to everyone else.

"All right, ready?" Another boy in goggles called out as he bent down beside Hayato. He was Bandou Kimita, a biology genius in the school.

"Yes!" Everyone replied him, all fired up.

"That's too soft! Louder! Louder!" Bandou remarked as he was not satisfied; He stood up, holding his hands high up in the air, clapping them 3 times. "Come on, show some spirit!"

"Yes! Yes!" The others shouted again, as they placed their hands on top of one another.

"Come on, that's not good! What I heard were some little girls' shouting, show some MAN power! Come on!" Hayato continued for Bandou, making an all-fired-up expression.

"Yes!" The others shouted again.

"MAN POWER!" Hayato made a swinging action.

"Yes!"

"MAN- MAN- MAN!"

"YES! YES! YES!" The others replied, all together at the same time. It sounded very loud and strong; what Hayato was looking for.

"Yes! That's it! All right get set… Go!" Hayato continued as he punched his hand into the air.

"O!" Bandou led the team.

"O!" The others follow suit, their voices united strongly as usual.

"D!"

"D!"

"A!"

"A!"

"I!"

"I!"

"B!"

"B!"

"A!"

"A!"

"ODAIBA! ODAIBA!" Hayato shouted at the top of his lungs. "We'll win!"

"Yes! ODAIBA!" The others sounded strong, like usual as their all started to look spirited and awake.

"We'll trash them!" Bandou shouted this time, making a swinging action with his hand.

"YES! ODAIBA!" The voice came as one, it was getting stronger.

"We're the champions! Yes we are!" Takeru led the team this time, punching his hand into the air.

"YES WE ARE! ODAIBA!" The voice filled the whole gym.

"We'll win, we'll win, we'll—" Takeru led the group aloud, his hand punching into the air every time he mentioned the word "win".

"WIN WIN WIN!" The group continued the very moment Takeru stopped. Everyone punched their knuckles together and then into the air. "Whoosh!" They went before dismissal.

What you just saw was the Odaiba High Basketball Team's traditional cheer. It was rather simple, but what matters are the volume and the might of the voice, that was awesome just now.

"TAKERU!" Takeru was shocked by the sudden interruption; he made a turn of his head quick and fast.

"A-ah?" He asked, looking blur.

"That was awesome…back then, seriously…that shot…you made." Another guy came up to the blonde, to praise him. The guy had rather long and messy hair, charcoal black eyes. His eyes were rather different; it had a certain feel to it, the sleepy kind of feeling. His hair, getting messier and messier each time, somehow emphasized so much on his character.

Oh…Eiichi Gozourou. The sleepy-head in class, but still, he's 1 great center I must admit.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. Thanks for the compliment, you did great too!" Takeru tried to return something good back to Eiichi. He didn't want anything to be misunderstood. He still wanted a good school life.

That's a must do in Odaiba High, I swear it with my right hand; I'm a right-hander. In this school, there are things that you really have to do if you still want a nice and cozy school life. Well, that was 1 of it. It helps to clear misunderstandings just like complimenting 1 back, well, it really does help. If you don't do that somehow, and the rumors of you being "unkind" spread all out, you're officially dead. Rumors in Odaiba High is 1 serious killing machine, I mean word.

"Hmmm…" Takeru took a glance around while drinking water, then he saw the clear sky through the windows. Without a doubt, he took out his phone and ran towards that way.

"Takeru? Where did he—" Hayato was leaving with the others, asking Takeru to tag along. But the curvy-hair could not see him anyway, then he remembered 1 of Takeru's daily routines.

"Sweet!" Takeru said as he took a photo of the sky, he stared at the picture for quite a while before Hayato came forward. He was touching the screen this time, as though there was an urge to do so.

"Takeru…" Hayato said softly.

"…Hmmm…huh-huh yeah?" Takeru took no notice until Hayato tapped him by the shoulders. Then he glance, he realized Hayato was wearing the sports jacket, with his backpack sling by the right. He was stuffing his hands into his pockets, making an irritated face. "Oh, sorry, you know," Takeru smiled a bit. "Daily, routines." He pointed to his phone screen.

Then he ran back to the bench packing his things before leaving with the rest.

"What was that all about, you've been doing that like, for the whole time?" Hayato asked out of curiosity.

Sorry to comment, but I don't think people like you would have an interest in that. You guys are only interested in gossips and sorts.

"Oh, you mean the pictures?" Takeru tried to fake innocent. He held his phone up to show Hayato.

"Yup," Hayato continued. "I mean, what's the point? Some promise to your past time girlfriends or what?" He remarked, trying to make a joke out of it.

That was rather rude…

"I mean, what's all that for? Must have some kind of meaning to it?" Hayato looked puzzled, shuddering at the same time; Takeru gave a rather disapproving look on his face.

"Erm, yeah, kind of. Oh well, it's nothing much actually," Takeru added, he was still keeping cool. "Hey, let's go faster, classes are starting soon!" He tried to change the subject or so.

I won't want you guys to make a joke out of it, or worst, spread it. So, that was a good lie I guess…

"See you guys later, during practice!" Bandou called out as he ran along with Hayato, Eiichi and Takeru, making their way back to class fast. "Come on, go go go!"

Daisuke Motomiya

"Aiko-chan! I'm coming!" Daisuke said as he ran towards the peak. He was sweating vigorously, panting hard as well; it wasn't easy running fast up a steep slope. "I'm coming now!" Daisuke made a jump.

"Daisuke-kun!" Aiko, a girl with glittering black hair all long and smooth, cried as she called out. She stretched out her arms, as though she was about to hug Daisuke.

"BANG" The sound came from no where, all of a sudden, the ground disappeared. Daisuke realized that everything blacked out.

What, what the heck?! I was about to hug her! Aiko-chan! Aiko-chaaaannn!

"Huh! What the…" Daisuke woke up from his sleep, as he opened his eyes, he saw a blonde on the floor. His table was slanted to his side; the other tables near his were slanted too. The blonde was rubbing his knee, with 1 hand supporting him on the ground. He looked rather pain-struck.

You! Yes, you destroyed my dream!

"What the heck were you doing!? I was having a rather nice dream! I was about to hug Aiko-chan and there you are, you destroyed everything!" Daisuke howled, rather angrily. His pointy hair all fired-up.

Wait…who is this…Tak-Takeru Takaishi! Knew it, you jerk!

Before Daisuke said anything, he realized everyone else was staring at him, everyone else in the classroom. "What?" Daisuke was puzzled at the situation.

"Wake up buddy! Come-on! Takeru didn't do that on purpose! Apologize now!" It was Hayato, 1 of the few that Daisuke despised. This had very much irritated Daisuke.

"Hey look here dude, Takeru ruined everything! It's him who should apologize!" Daisuke was pointing here and there, trying to prove he's correct.

"Takeru is the team captain, what if his arms are injured! You dumb ass! You better apologize!" Hayato was getting angry too, trying to fight back against Daisuke.

What the…That's why you proud asses are so irritating. You guys are so arrogant! I'm not giving up!

"You are really pissing me off with that stupid attitude of yours, Hayato!" Daisuke said as he clenched his fist; His face going red with his veins coming out.

"Hey, chill out! I'm sorry ok?" Takeru tried to calm the whole situation down.

Takeru's POV This Daisuke, as stubborn as ever. Forget it; I'm not wasting my time on things like this…

"Takeru, what are you doing?" Hayato questioned.

"Hey, come on, we don't have to blow this whole thing up! I won't want to get in trouble." Takeru answered softly.

"…" Hayato took a step back and returned to his seat, he was still angry though.

"Freaking losers!" Daisuke shouted as he watched Takeru and Hayato walked away.

All the same, the moment you threaten them, they will draw back! That's it for you arrogant asses! Oh well, I'm not the infamous Pointy Hot-head for no reason. I'm the captain of the soccer team after all! I can't lose to those arrogant jerks from the basketball team!

Hikari Yagami

As she walked across the corridors, her long maroon hair swinging at the back with a fragrance of strawberries, many eyes fell upon her. The guys, all staring at her and the girls all adoring her. It was Hikari Yagami, 1 of the prettiest girls in Odaiba High with the nicest attitude that all teachers liked. She was crowned the princess of the school last year. Somehow, she had the sweetest smile that could make guys fall for her in a split second.

Again, those looks, oh well I shouldn't give much notice either. Still, this school is really nice with nice people all around; I would really miss the school after graduation…

All of a sudden, Hikari realized that something was running her way. She fell down with a hard knock on her butt. "Ouch!" She cried. She stood up rubbing her knees and looked back.

"Sorry!" It was Takeru; he was in a rush somehow. 'Oh, Hikari-san, I'm really sorry! I am in a rush delivering something! Sorry!" Then he continue running along the corridor.

"…That really hurt…" She continued as she patted her knees a few more times. She then looked up, looking at Takeru running along the corridors.

What was that all about? Takeru in a rush is kind of a rare sight. Oh well, back to class or I'm going to be late. However, what I never expected was that I would soon get into some kind of a crisis, and that Takeru would be helping me. I never really expected that…

"Oh well…" Hikari turned and continue walking towards the class, this time, increasing her speed. As she entered the class, she greeted them and went back to her seat.

After a while, the class starts…

Ishii sensei, their English teacher walked into the class, with his books as usual. He looked rather skinny and is in his 40s, he wore really big and thick spectacles, those for the elderly. "All-right, settle down!" He called out, his voice sounding grumpier. The class quiet down soon and Ishii sensei continued. "Listen, looks like we have a new comer and she's from France! She will be here in the same class with us from now on! Come in, Catherine!"

Then, a girl with awfully shiny golden hair walked in. She had the smell of lavender, her hair curly and beautiful. Many boys were taken aback, their faces going red. The girl had really beautiful eyes; they were baby blue in color. It looked really nice and her smile was rather cute, some girls were disgusted by the boys' reactions that they stuck their tongue out. "I'm Catherine, nice to meet you all," Catherine gave a bow.

"Hi, Catherine!" The boys said with enthusiasm and excitement. Catherine gave a lovely smile. However, Takeru's reaction compared to the other boys' was more of a shock. Takeru had his blue eyes all wide open, he was shocked, his mouth slightly open.

Takeru's POV What's she doing here…How the…

"Catherine, sit at the empty seat there if you please," Ishii sensei directed her with his hand.

"Thank you," Catherine bowed slightly as she walked to her seat. Takeru was behaving weird, looking through the windows, ignoring everything else. Daisuke and Hikari noticed as they glance around the class.

Daisuke's POV Hehe… he's just like the rest, drooling over girls. Simple-minded ass! Seeing you like this makes me feel good!

Hikari's POV What's wrong with him, he's awfully weird now…Oh well, it doesn't matter…

"All-right, settle down settle down!" Ishii sensei called out. "Now, about the performance, what are you all going to do? The festival night is only 1 week away!"

"I know! A play! The sleeping beauty featuring Catherine!! I like that!" Bandou was getting rather excited, making a fool out of himself.

"You're a bore, Bandou!" Kazumi Sakamoto replied sounding rather angry. She was pissed off by the attitude of the guys. Kazumi had black hair, tied up with a ponytail, and her looks resembled some kind of a shaman. She is real scary at times when she's angry.

"What? You're jealous I know!" Bandou fought back.

"Hey stop it will you!" Masumi Shiomizu shouted this time. She was a good friend of Kazumi, and she was pretty as well. She's smart too, but she's often compared to Hikari and tends to lose in popularity.

"You're just plain jealous!" Hayato remarked loudly.

"Settle down!" Ishii sensei sounded pissed. He then continued after a cough. "

Then stick to it, the roles?"

"I know, Catherine as the princess!" Bandou howled as he raised his hand high up.

Daisuke's POV Hmmm…Princess eh…How 'bout Takeru being the prince! Haha, that would work!

"Sensei!" Daisuke raised his hand but he never realized that Ishii sensei had said something earlier.

"Ok, Daisuke be the prince!" Ishii sensei called out.

"Huh? What?!" Daisuke was shocked. So were the others as they sighed and protested.

"Ok, that's done and for the last time, settle down!" Ishii sensei was getting irritated as he scratched his head for the 11th time.

"Sensei, I can't, the role…" Catherine was blushing and trying to ask the sensei for help.

"Don't worry Catherine; this is a good chance for you to know us more. It will be easy, trust me!" Ishii sensei comforted her.

Catherine withdrew herself looking all afraid and depressed. Takeru was still acting weird and Daisuke banging his head on the tabletop.

"Now, the script-writers and the other roles!" Ishii sensei continued, his voice getting hoarse. "Firstly, the script-writers!"

"Hikari-chan!" Masumi called out.

"Then its settle, now the other roles…" The old guy continued rambling with the class all noisy and messy.

"Huh? Me?" Hikari pointed to herself, her brown eyes looking blur and worried.

"Yup! Good luck!" Masumi remarked sarcastically.

This is the worst, the worst really. I mean, why me? Masumi just pushed me into a deep old well that I can never climb up from now, what am I gonna do? This is the worst… What I never, never really expected is going to happen. All these performance and script writing are going to really turn my life upside down. If only I never joined in, if only! Oh, help me, someone!
