Rebound
Summary: He died and well…he guessed he was 'rebounded' back to life seeing he was now in the KnB world. Another chance was given to him, to play the sport that he loves so much…but with a price that involves a certain phantom
Author's Note: It seems, I've forgotten to put an author's note in the first chapter! Silly little ol' me hehe…well anyway thank you for those who read, favorited, followed and reviewed the first chapter! Banzai~ this story, well actually more on Aki, has actually been made since a few months ago but I was debating with myself with what story to post for there are two types of different story that I thought of and made. So I decided to just combine the two yehey~
Warning: For those who have noticed some mistakes in the first chapter I am very sorry since English is not my first language so expect some typos and probably some wrong grammar as well.
Disclaimer: I do not own KnB only Daiiro Aki and other OCs I made up!
Chapter 2
I met Kuroko Tetsuya when I was 3 years old. I was shocked…I already knew that I was reincarnated but I didn't know that I'd be reincarnated into a world that was considered fictional in my previous world.
Okaa-san and Otou-san didn't know why I suddenly cried when I saw the baby blue haired child, who was a few months older than me. I would whimper whenever I saw him because I really couldn't believe it. It wasn't my fault that my reaction was like this. I mean it took me some time before I accepted the whole reincarnation thing and the fact I had to go through being a baby again despite having an older mind.
But this…this is really crazy! Insane! I couldn't comprehend any of this! This wasn't what I was expecting especially since I read and watched their story before I died
I heard my parents apologizing to Kuroko's parents for my sudden outburst, "He's not usually like this" Okaa-san explained while Otou-san was bouncing me up and down his lap trying to calm me down "It's the first time he's been like this" I could hear their explanation while I was trying to get my shit together
…
…
…
After some time I eventually accepted it…
It took me 3 continuous months of seeing Kuroko though
I had to, I guess, since this is my new life and I had a mission to complete
A mission you ask?
Well a few months after I was comfortable with Kuroko /we're the best playmates now, mind you/ I had a dream or appropriately speaking I was able to meet someone inside my mindscape
It was weird, yes, but seeing I was already reincarnated into this world and in a fictional world that is real, no less, then it wasn't as weird as it appears to be at all anymore
The person that I meet inside my head was named Dean
Dean was, I realized, looked like Santa Claus though instead of white hair it was grey (or maybe it was because of his belly that made him look like the Man that lives in the North Pole). Also, he didn't look like the jolly, gift-giving, Guardian of Wonder man that I (or any children that believed in him) pictured. He seemed like a tired and grumpy old man that just wanted to do is rest. He was pretty short too.
We met when I was napping with Kuroko after over exerting ourselves with reading and drawing
He had explained to me that I was reincarnated because my life was too short (and uneventful) for the gods to really see if I was really meant to go to heaven. However because of this privilege, a mission is assigned to me…
'To grant Kuroko Tetsuya's wish'
…was what he told me
And as I stared at the baby blue haired kid in front of me, I couldn't help but wonder what this kid would possibly wish for with all his heart
"Aki?"
I shrugged and made a small smile as I slowly went towards him, "Play?" he showed the ball that was tightly grasped by his little pale hand
It didn't really matter since I had all the time in the world
"Mkay, Tetsu-nii"
I grabbed the ball as well
Half siblings
This was the relationship our parent's shared
It was really unexpected when I learned that Tetsuya was my cousin. I didn't mind that we were related /well maybe I did/ since it would be easier for me to do my mission but it also explained why I was almost every day with Tetsuya ever since we encountered each other and how our parents were super close
'I had thought one of our parents were best friends and they wanted us to be the next generation of best friends'
Kuroko Setsuna, Tetsuya's mother was petite; her skin was as white as snow while her hair and eyes matched the clear blue sky. She was cheerful and has a warm smile
Daiiro Haruka, my father was the opposite of Tetsuya's mother. He was tall and kinda muscular and like the other GoM's last name that hinted their hair and eye color, my father's hair and eye color too were…orange. He was timid and when he smiled dimples would show which would make Okaa-san squeal and pinch his cheeks.
They…they're really nice and warm people. And I really love them
I couldn't help but smile at the little family that was right in front of me, happily interacting with each other
'It's great to have them'
It was in 3rd grade that I met Dean again, when I fell into unconsciousness because I was hit by a ball to the face. How is he? Well he was the same person as ever
"Hey kid, how've you been?" he asked, his legs were cross legged as he silently drank his cup of tea
"I've been okay…what brings you here Dean?"
Dean didn't answer right away, still silently sipping the drink that he had on his hands and it made me feel uneasy that the atmosphere wasn't the same as I remembered it to be
The sound of the cup being placed gently on the table echoed inside my mindscape
He coughed before saying, "I was supposed to contact you after our meeting was cut short but I had other things to do and when I had the time to visit you, you weren't available"
I slowly nodded my head with his explanation
'That long huh'
"What is it that you have to tell me more, Dean?"
He stroked his beard thinking deeply, humming wondering what was the last thing we talked about that was a few years back
"I have told you about your mission?" I nod at his question as he sighed deeply, "Okay…well you see after you finish your mission you'll have to go back"
"Go back?" I furrowed my eyebrows, wondering what he meant by go back
Go back to where?
"Go back to purgatory. To see if you're worthy to walk pass heaven's gate or not…" my eyes widen with every word that came out from Dean's mouth
My breath hitched
'…leave your family…'
No
'…die again…'
No, this can't be happening
'…car crash…'
I thought I would live through my second life without dying anytime soon
'…earliest would be…'
To play basketball. To be with Tetsuya and my family. To make friends. To pursue my dreams.
'…however…'
Okaa-san…Otou-san…Oba-san…Oji-san…Obaa-sama…and Tetsu, I would leave them?
'…2 to 3 years after…'
WHY?!
'…I'm sorry kid…'
AKII!
My eyes snapped open as I immediately latched myself to the person who woke me up, knowing that it was Tetsuya. I knew he was confused as to why I crying, hugging him and muttering his name over and over again but he didn't question me but just hugged me back and patted my head muttering comforting words that I fell asleep again
Thankfully Dean wasn't there to greet me
