CHAPTER 2—The new rookie
On their way to the science lab...
"Eiji. Your science textbook."
"Ah-nya? Fuji!!! Sankyu! I was looking for it since this morning! Where did you find it?"
"Under my desk. You sat at my place yesterday remember?" as usual, the good- nature Fuji smiled at his friend.
"Ahaha yea, I forgot about it. Ah-nya? O-chibi!" Kikumaru rush to Ryoma and hugs him.
"Kikumaru-senpai, itai."
"I'd always wanted a little brother like him! Kawaii-nya!!!" Kikumaru messes up Ryoma's hair while talking to Fuji.
"Eiji, I don't think he likes that." Fuji smiled.
Ryoma had an if-you-are not-my-senpai-in-the-same-dorm-I-would-have squashed-you expression on his face.
"Ha. Scary. Eiji, you better let go of him."
"Yadda!!!" and hugs him even tighter.
"Eiji! Fuji! What are you doing here? Aren't you going to be late for class?"
"Oishi!" Fuji and Kikumaru spoke in unison.
"Kikumaru-senpai, I am going to be late for my next class."
"Eiji, let go of him! He's going to suffocate!!! This will be hazardous for his health!"
"... ... ... I want to bring him to my class-nya!!!"
"Eiji! Don't be unreasonable. Let go of Echizen!"
"Fsssh. First year, Muraki-sensei is looking for you. Fsssh."
"Kaidoh!" Well, he was on his way to the restroom when the first-year class teacher asks him to look for Ryoma. Though reluctant, he could not disobey the teacher.
"Ceh tsumaranai..." Kikumaru finally let go of Ryoma. Without wasting time, he ran off in great speed.
"Why did he ran so fast?"
"Either to avoid you or he's late for class. Extremely late, like us." Fuji answers calmly.
"What!? Oh no!!! I have to make a dash!" and Oishi disappeared.
Both Fuji and Kikumaru hurried to their class.
However, our favourite boy did not reach his class safely. While running (actually for fear Kikumaru will grab him again) he bumped into Ibu Shinji from Fudomine.
"Itai!" Ryoma and Shinji exclaimed.
"Look where you walk next time. No running along the corridors."
"That would be you." Ryoma said.
Shinji looks at him with an annoyed look.
"Didn't you run in the corridor? You shouldn't be running around here. You are a first-year right? How can you speak to your senpai in this manner? ... ... ... ah, you are the new super rookie from Seigaku. No wonder you are cocky. Right. First year to be able to make it in to the regulars you must be good but that doesn't mean you can run along the corridors. If the teachers caught you running, they will put you in detention. Then your name will be black listed in the school record. The society will look down on you. Your parents will be disown you and—"
"Ibu Shinji!!! Detention after class today!" Ryuzaki-sensei calls out. "What are you doing here talking to yourself!? I was looking for you! Where's your homework!? Hand it in!"
Smart move, Ryoma! He just avoided detention!
"Hey Shishido, did you hear the latest news on Seigaku dorm?" Hiyoshi whispers.
"Yea, there's a first-year in the regulars right?"
"I wonder what Tezuka is planning." Gakuto settle his food tray in front of Hiyoshi and pulls the chair.
"Won't it be fun?"
"Yuushi, you are always looking ahead for something to happen." Shishido comments.
A huge figure appears and pulls a chair for his master.
"Kabaji, get me a glass of orange lassi."
"Usu."
"Exaggerating as usual huh, Atobe?"
"Yuushi, are you trying to go against ore-sama?"
"Masaka... Atobe, did you hear the latest gossip on Seigaku?"
"The super rookie?"
"So you know everything! My my, there's nothing that Atobe-sama didn't know." Yuushi spoke daringly.
Ignoring him, Atobe continues. "Have anyone seem him play? Perhaps it's just a way Tezuka trying to attract attention. I mean, making his dorm famous."
"I thought that would be your style." A voice cut into their conversation. It's Mizuki Hajime, Rudolph's head dorm. He had been listening since the beginning of their 'little talk'. By the way, he's sitting right behind them in the cafeteria.
"Are we having people eavesdropping here? How impolite." Atobe is a little annoyed with Mizuki.
"Ohoho no one is eavesdropping. Just that your VOICE got out of control. Or perhaps you are trying to spread that?" Mizuki replies.
"Spread what?" Atobe tries not to lose his calmness. It would be ugly if he loses in this 'war' since everyone in the cafeteria is looking at them now.
"Hn hn hn hn, nothing... forget it..." Mizuki answered with a sinister smile. What a scary guy!
The Hyotei dorm students watch as Mizuki leaves the cafeteria with his team members.
"What is the meaning of that?" Gakuto asks.
"Saa" Shishido said and goes back to his food.
"Hey Fudo-san! Have you heard of Seigaku's new regular? That freshman?" Sengoku calls to Kamio across the court.
"Sengoku-san! I am in Fudomine dorm, and my name is Kamio, not Fudo-san."
"Right, right. Have you heard anything about that boy?"
"Not really."
"Well, he must be as strong as the regulars to be one. Or maybe this is some strategy Tezuka is playing? Hm... it's so unlike Tezuka to do such a thing... maa, till we see him perform, that freshman is still a mystery."
"Why does it matter that a freshman is in Seigaku? Practically everyone is talking about him now. Shinji said he bump into that freshman this morning. He caused Shinji into detention. Such an annoying brat." (Hem hem, Shinji changed the story when he told Kamio? Hehe)
"Then? He's not practicing today?"
"He's still in detention class. I think he won't be able to make it today. Ryuzaki-sensei is really mad at him for some reason."
"Sengoku!!! Hurry up for practice!"
"Just a minute, Touji! Ne, do you have time after practice?"
"Time? For what?" Kamio is a little worried that Sengoku is hitting on him.
"Hm... I want to buy the new CD by Lucifer but the shop is a little far. Just thought that maybe you can go with me."
Sengoku looks at Kamio with earnest and eager eyes (like how a puppy looks at its owner when it's expecting something)
"Um... alright... it won't take long right?" if he goes back too late, Shinji will be very noisy about it.
"Don't worry!!! I'll return this favour! Bye, see you after practice!" and Sengoku ran back to his court.
A/N: Nya, sorry I changed a few facts in the anime, Akazawa is the captain while Mizuki is just the manager. But I put Mizuki as the head dorm & captain here (hehe, to spice things up). Another thing, if I am not mistaken Yamabuki's captain in the anime is supposed to be Minami Kentarou while Sengoku is the vice captain. But here, I put Sengoku as the captain and head dorm. So don't get mixed up!!!
Yuii: Hahaha, thanks to everyone for your support and reviews! Karen, twisted-metal, actually earlier I did think of not separating them into dorms but the idea of having competition and stuffs between dorm would be interesting, ie, school festival and then see a little rivalry between the five dorms. Ooops, I revealed too much on upcoming chapters... perhaps after this I'll start another fic with everyone jumbled up more fruity eh? Nevertheless, thanks for reviewing! O-tanoshimini!!
