coolpriss: (cries while stroking her ear delicately) My poor ear . . .

Miyagi: Ahem!

cp: (glares at Miya then says in a loud voice) I can't hear anything because *someone* broke my eardrums . . .

Miya: (places himself near cp's other ear then shouts) AHEM! There, did you hear that? (smirks)

cp: (covered both her ears and shot Miya a look that could stop fire) WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!

Miya: (retorts) You said you couldn't hear anything . . .

cp: (shouts back) All because of you! Baka!!

Miya: It's your fault! You didn't listen to me the first time! You kept on blabbering nonsense!

cp: So you're blaming me now?! You . . . you . . . (shakes her fist at Miya) Hey. Now wait a minute. This is *my* fic. I am the author and you're *just* a character . . . (narrows her eyes) I could turn you into a frog if want to! Or worse . . . I could get your precious Aya-chan to hate you . . . (grins smugly)

Miya: (sweatdrops) J-jouto mate, coolpriss-chan . . . what I meant was you should continue now your great fanfic . . .

cp: (smirks) Hn. Maybe you're right . . .

Miya: (nods, smiling sweetly) Hai. Your fans are waiting for your next chapter . . .

cp: (sighs) I originally planned this fic to be a one-shot. If only a *certain someone* didn't break my eardrums, it should've been finished by now . . .

Miya: (looks away tiredly) Yare, yare. Just get on with it!

cp: (scowling) What did you just say?

Miya: (waving his hands) Nothing, coolpriss-chan . . .

cp: (still glaring at Miya) So, anyway, the next entry is from this short baka . . .

Miya: (crying) You dinna have to emphasize 'short' . . . when I actually called your fic great . . .

cp: (rolls her eyes) Yare, yare. Just get on with it!

Name: Miyagi Ryota

Nick: Ryochin

Saku: (suddenly appearing out of nowhere) Aah! You forgot something . . . (grabs the notebook and writes) S H O R T Y---

Miya: (grabs the slambook from Saku and erases his addition) Baka! You walked away from me when I was calling you, pretending you didn't hear me, and now you appear and ruin my entry! Not to mention insult me!

Saku: I was just telling the truth!

cp: (grabs the autograph book from Miya once he was finished erasing) Let's just get on with it!

Birthday: July 31

Zodiac: Leo

School: Shohoku

Hobbies: Getting close to Aya-chan!

Sports: Basketball

Friends: Sakuragi Hanamichi and other Shohoku basketball club members

Saku: (cries) Ryochin! You actually wrote my name as one of your friends . . .

Miya: (sweatdrops) Nani yo? (then turns his back on Saku) I should have known better . . . I knew you'd insult me, but I thought coolpriss wouldn't show it to anyone . . . (flashes cp a /look/)

cp: (puts her arms behind her neck and looks around, whistling . . . even if she doesn't know how to whistle. . .)

Mitsui: (talks to Miya) You shouldn't have specified his name . . .

Gori: (also talks to Miya only) You know that baka's good for nothing but to put himself up and insult people . . . when all he does himself is be a fool . . .

Miya: Yeah, the clown of the club . . .

Ruka: (nods approvingly)

Saku: (huge cross) NANI?!

Kogu: (having a hard time stopping Saku even with the help of the guntai) Relax, Sakuragi!

Bestfriend: Mitsui Hisashi

cp: (whispers while the others are fighting behind her) Like I told you before, it's just that I noticed that more often than not, Miyagi and Mitsui are always together, or at least next to each other like when they would meet unexpectedly in front of the school on some mornings, they'd always come next to each other . . . okay, I'll stop now . . .

Motto: "Steady. Let's get another ball in!"

Describe yourself: fast, cool, has an earring, curly hair, . . . cute . . .

Saku: Cute as in short!

Miya: (exasperated and crossed) Look, everybody knows that already, okay?! You don't have to say it over and over again!

Saku: (chants softly) Short. Short. Short. Short. Short. Short. Short. Short.

Miya: (three huge crosses) Te me . . .

Gori: (smacks Saku on the head) Shut up!

Ruka: (shrugs) Do'aho . . .

Define love: Love is whenever I see Aya-chan . . .

Ayako: (sweatdrops) That's not a definition . . .

Miya: (creeps closer to Aya) But it's true, Aya-chan . . . (blushes)

Aya: E? (sweatdrops again) Will you please continue now, coolpriss?

cp: Hai!

Crush: AYA-CHAN!!!

Aya: (half-lidded with huge sweatdrop)

Miya: (turning crimson and holding his cheeks) I'm a bit embarrassed . . . (stealing glances from Aya)

Minna: (huge sweatdrop)

Greatest dream: To finally go on a date with Aya-chan!!! To be the best point guard in the nation!! To have my own fanclub! {then in smaller characters} To grow taller . . .

Saku: Wahaha! Well, you can dream all you want, Ryochin. But you'll never grow anymore! Wahahaha!

Aya: (whacks Saku with her paper fan) You're so insensitive, Sakuragi Hanamichi!

Miya: (red-faced, not sure if from embarrassment or pure bliss, probably both) Aya-chan! (eyes turned to hearts)

Aya: Eh?? (sweatdrops)

Happiest moment: Whenever Aya-chan cheers for me in games!

Aya: (sighs)

Miya: (plays with his forefingers) Anou, Aya-chan . . . I was just wondering if . . .

Aya: Ah! I forgot! I have something very important to do . . . (runs away frantically)

Miya: (cries) Aya-chan . . .

Saku: (snickers)

Miya: (glares at Saku) What's so funny?

cp: (sensing something bad) Oh-kay! On to the first years!

_____________________________________________

Saku: Yosh! Finally, it's my turn!

Mitsui: We might as well leave now, coolpriss . . . (starts to walk away)

Saku: Nani? And why's that, Micchy?!

cp: Iie, please stay for a while longer, Mitsui-kun . . . (cheeks turn pink as she says his name)

Name: Rukawa Kaede

Saku: Aahh! Why's Kitsune's entry first?! Where's mine? (snatches the slambook and flips it to other pages) The tensai's entry should always come first before kitsune! Where's my entry?!

cp: (sneering) You said you'd never sign my /stupid/ slambook . . .

Saku: (looks at cp dumbly) Did I say that?

cp: (nods derisively)

Saku: (throws back the notebook to cp) Yeah, now I remember. Because tensais never go that low enough to sign stupid autograph books! Wahahaha!

cp: (an eyebrow raised dangerously) Low?

Haruko: (appears behind the still-laughing Saku) Is it true, coolpriss? Do you really have Rukawa-kun's data on your slambook?

Saku: (stops laughing the moment he hears Haru's voice) H-haruko-san!

cp: (great idea dawning) Hai, Haruko-san! I have it right here! (opening the slambook to Ruka's entry)

Haru: (eyes widening) Sugoi!! (hurries over to cp)

Saku: (a hand reaching out to Haru) Haruko-san!

cp: (smirks at Saku) He wrote it himself, y'know. . .

Haru: (staring at Ruka's handwriting) Hontoni?

Nickname: Ace of Shohoku, super rookie

Saku: (reading over their heads) Ha! He's a Kitsune, not an ace! Tensai Sakuragi's the /real/ ace of Shohoku! Wahahaha!

cp: Urusai! (drags Haru to the other side, away from Saku)

Saku: (narrows his eyes at cp) Ku'sho . . . (shouts at cp) That's Micchy's line! You have no right to use it!

cp: (leers) You're just jealous 'cause I got to be close to my Mitsui-kun in this fic while you couldn't even get Haruko's attention! Bwahahaha!

Mit: (sweatdrops) What the heck's she talking about?

Haru: (looks up to cp with innocent eyes) Hn? Did you mention my name, coolpriss? Sumimasen, I was so busy reading Rukawa-kun's entry . . . (blushes deeply) How did you get him to sign this, by the way?

cp: (smiles mischievously) Se-cret! (winks)

Haru: (tugs on cp's arm) Come on, coolpriss! Tell me!

cp: (closes her eyes and shakes her head) Sorry, Haruko-san, but if I tell you then almost everyone'll do it and that would be the end of my little business . . . just be thankful I'm letting you read this for free . . . Mwahahaha!

Saku: (shaking with anger) JUST GET ON WITH IT!!

cp: (sneaks closer to Saku) Hm . . . you're awfully in a hurry to read Rukawa's entry aren't you, Sakuragi? (teasingly) I do wonder why . . . (elbows his ribs and giggles)

Saku: What are you talking about?!! You . . . (stares angrily at cp but couldn't move because she was back beside Haru)

Birthday: January 1

School: Shohoku

Hobbies: um . . . sleeping, I guess . . .

Saku: Ahahahaha! What kind of hobby is that?! Wahahahaha! That's why he's always failing in class because he's always sleeping! Wahahaha!

Haru: (concerned) You shouldn't laugh at him, Sakuragi-kun. He must be practicing really hard even until late at night that's why he always lack sleep . . . poor Rukawa-kun . . .

Saku: (downcast) Haruko-san . . . (mumbles) why are you always defending that Kitsune otoko . . .

cp: (nodding knowingly) The power of unrequited love . . .

Ruka: . . .

Sports: Basketball

Friends: . . .

Bestfriend: . . .

Haru: (tears on the corners of her eyes) My poor Rukawa-kun! He doesn't have friends . . . (tears now rush to her face) He's so mis -- hic!-- understood . . . hic! . . . Just because he's -- hic!-- serious all the time --hic!-- doesn't mean he's --hic!-- bad . . . (hugs surprised cp and cries buckets)

cp: (extremely huge sweatdrop) Now, now, Haruko-san . . . get a hold of yourself! (pats Haru on her back)

Saku: (doesn't know what to do) Aahh! Haruko-san! (starts to cry too) Why are you hugging coolpriss when you could be holding me . . . (then eyes widened) Aahh! Coolpriss, you're . . . you're . . .

cp: (extremely huge cross) BAKA! You dirty-thinker!! And you call yourself a genius when all you think about is nonsense! You should be shouting at Rukawa right now and not me if you had even a tiny bit of a brain!!

Saku: Nani . . . (starts to get what cp was saying) Ah! Rukawa! How dare you make sweet Haruko-san cry?!! (looks around for Ruka then finds him in a corner, sleeping) OY! (kicks Ruka) How can you still sleep when Haruko-san's crying for you?!!

Haru: (gasps) Sakuragi-kun!

Ruka: (wakes up angry when Saku kicked him) How dare you disturb my sleep? You'll pay for this . . .

Saku: grr! *You're* the one who'll pay for making Haruko-san cry, you foxy-face! (charges at Ruka)

Haru: (hurries to restrain Saku) Sakuragi-kun! Stop! Don't fight with Rukawa-kun, onegai! Let's just continue reading coolpriss-chan's slambook, ne, Sakurgi-kun, Rukawa-kun?

Ruka: (glares at Saku then turns around) . . .

Saku: (frowning) That Rukawa should be taught a lesson if you ask me! But for you, Haruko-san, I'll do anything . . .

Haru: (nodding, relieved) Arigatou, Sakuragi-kun, Rukawa-kun . . .

cp: (watches amusedly, with a grin on her face) So on we go!

Motto: Zzzz . . .zzz . . .

minna: (sweatdrops)

cp: What kind of motto's that?

Saku: I keep on telling you, he's weird!

Haru: (blank look on her face)

Ruka: . . .

Describe yourself: The next Kareem Abdul Jabar

Saku: Huh? Cream Apple Jam?

Aya: (hits Saku with her paperfan) Can't you remember anything? I told you this before didn't I? It's Kareem Abdul Jabar! (pronounces the name slowly and carefully) The American super-rookie who entered NBA when he was just a freshman!

Saku: (still confused) BNA? ABN?

minna: (sweatdrops)

Haru: The National Basketball Association in America, Sakuragi-kun. I hear it's very hard to enter it.

Aya: (exasperated) I told him that too.

Saku: Ah! That one. (nods) Now I remember. (then remembers Ruka's entry) Nani?! The next NBA super-rookie?! You're putting yourself too high, Rukawa! You can't even beat tensai Sakuragi! Wahahaha!

Ruka: (sweatdropping) What are you talking about? I've beaten you lots of times. You're not my level.

cp: (her amused grin getting bigger by the second) Oooh . . . Rukawa, you're not very humble, are you?

Saku: (bursting with rage) NOT YOUR LEVEL?!! TEMERO!!!!

*Ruka and Saku is enveloped in a thick cloud with fists, legs and heads popping up every now and then.

Haru: (stares at them pale-faced then faints)

Matsui, Fujii: Haruko! Wake up! Haruko!

Yohei: (watches amusedly with cp and the rest of the guntai) Should we stop him? I'm getting tired of holding him back for you, coolpriss. Besides, watching him like this is fun.

Hakami, Omachu, Ookuzu: (nods) Fight, Hanamichi!

Kogu: (trying desperately to control the situation) Please! You're the only ones who can stop them!

Haka: coolpriss can stop them too, if she wants to.

Kogu: (turns to cp) Onegai, coolpriss-chan!

cp: (looks at poor Kogu then to the cloud of fists) Yameta!

*Saku and Ruka breaks up, panting.

Yohei: (confused look at cp) She actually did it?

Kogu: (relieved) Arigatou, coolpriss-chan!

cp: (scratching her head) Eh . . . he . . . he . . .

*Saku and Ruka starts fighting again

minna: (sweatdrops)

Yohei: Yappari . . .

Kogu: (cries) coolpriss-chan . . .

cp: (sighs) Oh, alright. Just three more seconds, okay?

Saku guntai: Three . . . Two . . .

cp: (sweatdrops)

Kogu: One . . .

*Two giant fists slam down on both Saku and Ruka's heads.

Gori: YAMETA!!

Kogu: Akagi! (sighs with relief) Arigatou gozaimasu, coolpriss-chan!

Yohei: Wait . . . something might still happen . . .

cp: (sighs) Iie . . . sometimes, too much fun could be dangerous to your health . . .

Define love: I don't know.

Crush: . . .

Most embarrassing moment: I don't get embarrassed.

Saku: (whole face filled with band-aids) He doesn't have feelings so let me have him since he couldn't feel any pain!

Gori: (gorilla glare) Stay where you are!

Haru: (starts to wake up) Onii-chan! Thank goodness you stopped them!

Saku: (realizes Haru fainted) Haruko-san! Daijobou? It's all Kitsune's fault! He'll pay for this!

Gori: (gori glare with fire behind him)

Saku: (sweatdrops)

Haru: Daijobou, Sakuragi-kun. I'm fine now so please don't fight with Rukawa-kun anymore.

Saku: Haruko-san . . . (eyes sparkling) Hai, Haruko-san, for you, I'll do anything . . .

cp: Yare, yare . . .

Greatest dream: To be the No. 1 player in Japan then go to Amerika

Saku: (in a soft voice) Dream on, Rukawa! I'll beat you soon!

cp: (also in a soft voice) Dream on, Sakuragi!

Saku: (looks at cp) Nani?!

cp: (now in a loud voice) And now, Rukawa Kaede's dedication!

Dedication:

. . .

cp: (huge sweatdrop) I should've known . . .

Ru: Ha! You don't have Rukawa's signature!

Ka: Yeah! And with out Rukawa's signature, we don't believe that he was really the one who wrote that!

Wa: You could have written that yourself for all we know! We don't buy fake Rukawa stuff!

cp: (another sweatdrop) What are you doing here?!

Ru: Hmp! Wherever Rukawa is, there we are too!

Ka: Yeah! And since your slambook is obviously fake stuff, we're not gonna buy it!

Wa: It's the end of you're business, coolpriss!

cp: No! It's real! It was Rukawa who really wrote this! Believe me!!! Rukawa, you tell them! You were the one who wrote this! Rukawa! (looks around for Rukawa and finds him sleeping) Rukawa . . . (sweatdrops)

Ru, Ka, Wa: We won't buy it. So don't even try! Sayonara! (walks away)

cp: (crying) No . . . jouto mate kudesai! I'm really telling the truth!

Saku: (pokes at cp) Oi, coolpriss. Kitsune's entry is finished. Let me write now.

cp: (throws the slambook to Saku crying) There! You could have that! I lost my business! All those hardwork, bullying and deceiving . . . all for nothing . . . not even a single penny! (falls to her knees and wails like a child)

Saku: (catches the slambook and starts scribbling frantically)

minna: (walks away each occupied with their own business, ignoring the afflicted coolpriss)

cp: (muttering) After all my hard work . . . maybe I should change teams . . . I'll ditch Shohoku and go to Ryonan instead . . . my Sendoh-kun wouldn't allow this to happen . . . (eyes widened as the idea started to sink) Ryonan . . . (stands up brightly) Yes! Sendoh-kun's got lots of fans aside from me . . . I can still make loads of money! I'm not yet bankrupt! There's hope!! Plus, I get to talk to Sendoh-kun . . . (hurries away to Ryonan)

Saku: (beams) Finished! Wahahaha! There, you can finally see the real tensai through this slambook! Come on, don't be shy, I know you want to get to know me better since I'm the /real/ ace of Shohoku! Wahaha! (finally notices that nobody was there) Eh? Nani? Where'd everyone go? (gets really mad) coolpriss! You'll pay for this!!!!

________________________________________________

cp: No, I haven't ditched Shohoku . . . I couldn't do that to my Mitsui-kun . . . I'll forever be cheering for that great and strong team! But please don't let my arduous efforts go down the drain . . . you could click on the link below and leave a heart-warming review to relieve my suffering . . . okay, it doesn't have to be heart-warming . . . just a simple review will do . . . I mean, this *is* my first sd fic, not to mention my first humor fic . . . please tell me what you think . . . please!!! ^^ BTW, Sakuragi *did* sign on my slambook . . . do you want to read it? I'm also gonna need a little advice on that Ryonan thing. Do you think I should try my luck with Ryonan or do you think I'd end up bankrupt with a broken heart like I did today? Whatever you want to say, write it down on that review form please! Domo arigatou, minna-san!!!! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Ja! (winks and waves goodbye)
