Chapter 2 : Emotion

Ryoma arrived at his home without saying 'I'm home'. He walked toward his oyaji who was reading his porn magazine under the newspaper.

"Oh, you're back, seishounen." Nanjiroh said without looking at his son's face. But he quickly turned his face toward Ryoma after hearing sniffing sound. He was shocked to see that his son was CRYING?

Nanjiroh put his newspaper down. He approached his son. "Oi, Ryoma. What happened? Rinko! Come here! Ryoma is crying." Nanjiroh called for his wife. Rinko quickly walked to the living room.

"Oh my. What happened, Ryoma?"Rinko hugged his son. Ryoma still continued to cry.

"Th..they said they were only using me, mom. They kicked me out from the team."

"They?" Nanjiroh asked in confusion.

"Seigaku! They said they were only befriending with me because they want to use me to win the National. Now that they had achieved their goal, they didn't need me anymore. Mom, I hate them!" Ryoma wailed.

Rinko and Nanjiroh looked at each other. How could Seigaku do that to their precious son?

"Mom, I want to leave Seigaku. I don't want to be here again!"

"Of course, Ryoma. Whatever it is you want. Well, do you want to go to America? I can contact themfor you." Rinko said with her soft voice. She felt very angry. Wait until she gets her hand on that stupid Seigaku's regulars.

Ryoma nodded. He stopped crying. "I want to leave tonight."

That night, Ryoma leave Japan using his family private jet. He wants to start a new life at America. At least he still has his familyat America. But he will not forget what Seigaku had done to gim. He shall return to Japan to get revenge. Seigaku shall pay for what they had done to Echizen Ryoma.

~betrayed soul~

Atobe looked outside his room's window. He remembered what Seigaku had said about Ryoma.

Flashback

"What? Are you kidding? Ryoma said he was only using you all in order to win National!" Kirihara shouted. His face shows pure anger.

"Yes. We heard him talking to someone using his handphone. He..he said he only want to steal our moves and then leaves Seigaku after that." Momoshiro said with his fake sad face.

"How could he? That Echizen. He is gonna pay!" Kirihara said.

Yukimura and Sanada looked at Tezuka. "Are you sure, Tezuka? Did you talk to him?" Yukimura asked.

"Yes, Yukimura. There is no point in talking to someone who has betrayed us." Tezuka replied with his stoic face.

"I can't believe Echizen do that to his teammates desu." Dan said with his sad face. "I thought he was a good person desu."

'Bullshit! There is no way Ryoma could do that. Stupid people who believed Seigaku's crap talks.' Akutsu drink his orange juice in one gulp. He can't believe that Ryoma didn't defend himself when his ex-teammates talking bad about him.

Atobe just listening to the conversations. He remembered about how Ryoma looked that evening. If Tezuka and other regulars were true, why does Ryoma cried? Did he felt guilty about betraying his team? (I think I will make Atobe a bit stupid here..hehe)

Meanwhile, other teams who also in the party were listening to Seigaku. Most of them…MOST were believed in Seigaku.

Only these three persons do not believe in Seigaku. They knew that Ryoma did not betray his team but they just keep quiet. They want to see what Ryoma will do if he knows what his team has done to him.

Flashback End

'Ryoma, is it true?' Atobe sipping his wine. (he underage ok. But he is so frustrated right now. So he drinks wine. ;p) 'I don't know who to believe anymore.'

Atobe has tried to call Ryoma and want him to explain what happened with him and his teammates. But Ryoma's mother told him that Ryoma had leaves Japan. He wants to know where did Ryoma went so that he can talk to him but Rinko refused to tell and hung up.

Atobe sighed. 'Ryoma…'

Meanwhile, at America…

Ryoma set his foot on America. He looks at the blue sky. It took 15 hours from Japan to America. So he arrived at morning. 'I'm arrived.'

"Ryoma!" A voice called him.

Ryoma turned his face toward the familiar voice. A boy who looked like the same age as Ryoma run toward Ryoma and hugged him.

"I miss you! I can't believe that you came back here!" The boy who has blonde hair and blue eyes said with happy tone.

"Come on, Kylle. Let Ryoma go. He looked pale." Other boy with black hair and amber eyes said as he dragged Kylle away from Ryoma.

"Stop it, William! I want to hug Ryoma. I miss him." Kylle struggled.

"You didn't change, Kylle, William." Ryoma said said with his cold tone. "Where are the others?"

"They have work. So, only two of us were here to greet you." William answered. Ryoma looked displeased. William noticed this.

"Don't worry, Ryoma. They love to have you came back here." William said to make sure that Ryoma is assured that he was welcoming back at America.

"Hmmm.." Ryoma walked passed his cousin and his best friend, ignoring them.

"Ah, wait Ryoma!" Kylle run toward his cousin.

William just watching Kylle tried his best to attract Ryoma's attention. 'Wow, I never guess that he will be this pissed. What kind of stupid people this Seigaku are? They made Echizen Ryoma this angry.' William sighed. 'Guess I should call father to make sure that no one make him angrier then he was right now.' William flipped his phone. He calls his father.

Ryoma walked toward the limo that awaiting him. He ignored his annoying cousin who asked question after question non-stop. Right now, he just wants to come home to his family mansion and sleep since he can't sleep at the plane. His mind keeps on reminding him about his ex-team betrayal.

He hope tomorrow would come so that he can start a new life. No more Seigaku. No more Japan. He will not surrender. He will show Seigaku who he really are.
