Enjoy

Mikan was walking back on her way home. Something was really fishy about that guy and she wants to find out. Maybe coming back tomorrow at the park she can actually find him. Whatever, she tried to shake it off.

The next day had come……………..

Mikan got up and out of that blue vintage bed. It was Saturday today and Mikan had decided that she was going to the park, but just in case she didn't find him, she'll bring a basketball to shoot some hoops.

"I wonder if he's going to be there, guess I got to check." Mikan thought curiously. Mikan was anxious to find that handsome stranger because he didn't tell her his name. You know the saying, curiosity kills the cat.

Mikan was walking along the streets of Tokyo, seeing automobiles and children playing. It was a great sight for Mikan. Mikan was wearing a hooded jacket because it was cold in Tokyo. Mikan had started playing basketball when she was 5 years old.

Flashback

"You can do it Mikan, keep on going." Mikan's dad encouraged her to shoot the basket, "Now shoot it."

Mikan did exactly what she was told. She quickly released the ball and it was thrown into the basket.

Little Mikan said, "Like that Daddy." She pressed her and together jumping up and down waiting for his answer.

Mikan's dad smiled as he seen his daughter playing basketball. It was one of the best moments for a father. Mikan's father patted her head, "Yes Mikan like that."

Mikan stood there blissful that she impressed her daddy. She always wanted to impress him each and every day with basketball. She knew her daddy love basketball and she would love it too. Mikan's dad plays in the professional so he was always concerning about basketball.

5 Years Later…………….

"Someone call a Doctor Now!!" Mikan's mom came rushing down from the stadium, pushing everyone out of the way so she can get to her husband.

"Call a Doctor Now!!" Mikan's mom shouted as everyone brought out there cell phone and dial 911 (I don't know what Japan's emergency number is so I'm using America's emergency number.)

Minutes later as a team of doctor came rushing in to find an Akira Sakura on the floor groaning. They assume that he was groaning from the pain.

"Get the stroll bed now! We must hurry!" The head of the doctor commanded. Other doctors nodded and did what they were told. The stroll bed came rushing in, in a flash. Akira Sakura was carried onto the bed by the team of doctors.

"Is my husband alright doctor?" Mikan's mother said worriedly to the head doctor.

"I'm afraid he broke his artillery, so he can never play basketball. I'm sorry to break that to you." The main doctor told Mikan's mother.

End of flashback.

On that day Mikan's father banded of played basketball in the family. He couldn't catch a basketball or watch a basketball. He became a grouch whenever the word basketball was mention but Mikan kept on playing. She knew deep inside her heart that her father truly did not hate basketball and that was what kept her going. She continued to play basketball for him not against him. Ever since that incident Mikan's father and Mikan never had a relationship with each other anymore.

-

Natsume was heading towards the park with his team. He was hoping that the girl name Mikan would be back. He had a feeling that she would come back because he didn't give her his name, maybe her curiosity driven her back to the park.

Flashback

Natsume walked back into the gym his team is practicing. Natsume twist the door knob open as he came in through the door. All his teammates came rushing down to him when they saw him. They were anxious to see if they're coach brought back a player to replace Ami.

"Coach, have you find our new member?" Miyuki asked. She was the most anxious out of all her teammates.

"Half and half." Natsume explained to his teammates.

They were all confused. What did he meant by half and half? There's only no and a yes, no half and half answer.

"Huh??" All of the members of the Saber said confuse.

"I'm saying I don't know YET." Natsume answered them as he went towards the bench to sit.

"So does that mean we don't have a player yet?" Anna asked as she tried to figure out his answer.

"Not quite." Natsume answered. They were still confused about his answer.

"Than what the heck do you mean?" Everyone shouted beside Ami but Miyuki was the loudest.

"I got it. You mean that you have an eye on a player but you haven't scouted her yet." Ami answered to Natsume answer.

"Yes and to think you were the only one to figure it out." Natsume said coldy.

"Well you're not exactly the brightest explainer." Miyuki said smartly. Everyone else nodded their head to show that they were agreeing with her.

"What's not to get?" Natsume said, "Come with me tomorrow to find out if your soon to be new teammate is great."

Everyone agreed to go tomorrow.

End of flashback.

So now that's why they are now at the park. The Saber barely arrived at the park but to find no one.

30 minutes later had pass by and still no sign of any person.

Miyuki complained, "Coach no ones here, are you sure she is coming?"

Natsume said reacting very quickly, "I'm positive."

Natsume thought, "Is she going to come?"

Mikan barely arrived at the basketball court and started shooting. Natsume spotted her at the court and knew she would come. Everything is P-E-R-F-E-C-T.

"There she is." Natsume pointed at the basketball court.

He didn't specifically point at Mikan but at the court. An old lady came passing by the court. Now you see Miyuki thought that Natsume was pointing at the old lady so she jumped to conclusion and said, "Does she have skills for her age?" Miyuki was confuse, did her coach had hopes on an old lady.

"What do you mean?" Natsume said with confusion. He didn't understand one thing Miyuki said.

"What I mean is that does the old lady have skills in basketball because if it was me I wouldn't really scout an old lady. Coach are you sure she is good because that's all I'm saying." Miyuki told the coach.

Natsume slapped his forehead and said, "Not the old lady baka, that girl." Natsume pointed at Mikan this time.

"Coach you're not the brightest pointer at all." Miyuki mumbled to herself.

They stopped all their chatting and watch Mikan shoot some hoops.

She made some three pointers with a perfect form. She can even make dunks and every time she makes a lay-up, the ball seemed like it wanted to go in. What the heck, she can do anything on the court.

The Saber's were amazed of how great she is and they would welcome her into their team, but one problem, how are they going to persuade her to join.

"How are we going to persuade her to join?" Anna asked her coach. The rest of the members thought the same.

"Leave this to me." Natsume smirked and ran to the court where Mikan was.

Mikan didn't find that handsome stranger so she decided to pack her stuff and leave. Just as she was about to leave, he popped out in front of her leaving her stunned.

Natsume smirked, "Guess we meet again."

"Oh I guess we did huh?" Mikan said not surprised. She starts to walk away.

"Let me guess, you're hoping to know my name." Natsume replies while walking with her.

"Not exactly." Mikan said coolly. She just kept on walking.

Natsume walked in front of her and stopped her and said, "The name is Natsume."

Mikan stopped and said, "Okay NATSUME, please move." She shoved him away and continued to keep on walking but dominant arms stopped her.

"Not until you listen to my proposition." Natsume is now holding Mikan's hand.

"What is it?" She said questionly.

"Join my team name Sabers." Natsume proposed.
