Starmoonbear: A new chapter! Woohoo! Enjoy everyone! Also OC in chapter! So watch out!
It was a bright and early day. The stride club decided that after school, they would try a new technique. Soon after school, all the members met. "Today, we will be looking at speed" Heath said as they nodded "Riku, I think you will be very fast for this practice" Heath said "Why?" Riku asked "You'll see, also Nana, you can't interfere either" Takeru said "Um okay?" Nana said a bit confused "Great! Let's start practicing" Kyosuke said as they all nodded. "Nana, press this button when I say so" Heath said as she nodded. They all scattered to their positions. "1…2…3…go!" Nana said as Riku took off "Nana! Press the button!" Heath said as Nana did as she was told. All of a sudden a big picture was seen. Nana and Riku both blushed red. The picture was yesterday when they had the sleep over. Nana and Riku were both holding hands as they slept. "What the! Heath! How do I turn this off?" Riku asked as panicky looked around "You have to relation with your partner" Heath smirked "Come on!" Riku moaned "Hozumi, get ready fast, 1…2...3...go!" Nana said quickly as Hozumi took off quickly. Riku quickly high fived Hozumi and the picture disappeared. A few minutes later the practice was over. "Riku! Great job, nice speed" Heath laughed as Riku blushed "That's clearly blackmail!" Riku said.
Nana was walking back to the group as someone tapped her shoulder. Nana turned around and saw a boy around her age. He had spiky orange hair and he was wearing a red track suit that said the words Seisei on it. "May I help you?" Nana asked "I'm looking for Riku Yagami, I saw the picture" the boy said as Nana blushed "You must be his girlfriend right?" the asked as nodded "Lucky him, he got a girl before me!" the boy laughed. Nana smiled "What's your name?" Nana asked "Me? I'm Asuma Mayuzumi, second year at Seisei High school, please to meet you" Asuma said "Seisei High school? You're not from here?" Nana asked as he shook his head "Nope, I'm rival friend of your stride team" Asuma said "Rival friend?" Nana was confused "Like a friend of your team but a rival at the same time" Asuma said "Oh okay, I get it" Nana said as he nodded "I'll take you to Riku now" Nana said "Oh right! I forgot I wanted to see him" He laughed as Nana chuckled. Nana and Asuma were happily chatting until they reached the team.
"Nana, you're late" Kyosuke said "I'm sorry, I ran into someone on the way, Asuma" Nana said "Hey guys!" Asuma greeted "Asuma! What are you doing here?" Riku asked "I came to tell about the championships" Asuma said "Championships? Already?" Hozumi asked as he nodded "All I know are the schools that are participating" Asuma said "What are the schools?" Kyosuke asked "Seisei high, Mihashi high, Ichijyokan high, and Kakyoin high" Asuma said "Is it too late to sign up?" Heath asked as Asuma shook his head "Great, let's sign up" Heath said "I'm in!" Kyosuke said as they all nodded "Awesome, I'll add you guys right away" Asuma said "Wait…you're running it?" Heath asked he nodded "Yep" Asuma said looking proud "Is that why you wanted to see us?" Heath "yes, I wanted to run with you guys again" Asuma said "Wow, really! That's awesome!" Riku said "Wait...Asuma, could you repeat the schools again" Nana asked "Oh sure, Seisei High, Mihashi high, Ichijyokan high, and Kakyoin high" Asuma said "Ichijyokan high…why does that seem so familiar?" Nana thought for a moment "Hey Asuma, does Ichijyokan high have a runner named Yuri Himemiya in their team?" Nana asked "Yes they do, why?" Asuma asked "I know one of the members there" Nana said as they looked at her "Really?!" they asked as she nodded "Yes, I'm going shopping with him later today" Nana said "that's cool" Kyosuke said. "He really hate losing so this will be interesting" Nana said.
In the afternoon after school Nana went to the fountain. "Yuri! Sorry I'm late" Nana said as he looked up. "That's okay, I'm was early anyways" Yuri said as he got up. "I think we should go into that shop first" He said as he pointed to a video game shop "yeah! Let's go!" Nana said. They entered the shop as they started to look around "I'm thinking of getting this game, what about you?" Yuri asked as she looked at him "I'm still looking around" Nana said as he nodded. He bought the game as they left the store "Nothing caught your interest?" Yuri asked as she shook her head "Not really" Nana said. Yuri looked at her "Is something the matter?" Yuri asked as she thought for a minute "Um actually I have favor" Nana said "What is it?" Yuri asked "Um I would like your stride team to have a practice match with my team" Nana said "A practice match? Sure, I have no problem with it" Yuri said as she smiled "Thanks! You're the best!" Nana said as he laughed "It's no big deal, you helped before so I'm just returning the favor" Yuri said "That was nothing" Nana laughed "Anyways, I'll come get you after school" Yuri said as she nodded "Thanks again" Nana thanked. They soon continued to shop.
The next day it was soon time for practice "Okay guys, today we need to work on our relation" Heath said as they nodded "Um Heath captain" Nana said as Heath looked at her "Yes Nana?" Heath asked "I actually have something in mind" Nana said "Oh really? What is it?" Kyosuke asked "Nana!" they heard someone call her name "Oh Yuri!" Nana said as she ran to him "No way! Is that…" Riku said "Woah…" Hozumi said "Guys, this is my friend Yuri, we're going to have a practice match with his team" Nana said "Heath, is it okay?" Nana asked as he nodded. "Follow me, my team is waiting" Yuri said.
As they reach the school, they were greeted by the stride members "Welcome back Yuri" a boy said. Yuri didn't say anything and walked right passed him. He glared at him. That didn't seem to bother Yuri though. "Nana, don't trust anything that guys says" Yuri said as she nodded "Who is that guy?" Nana asked "He's Shiki Dozono, honestly I hate him, but he's the only relationer we have" Yuri said "Oh…I see" Nana said "If we had another relationer, I would have kicked him out long ago, too bad you couldn't be our relationer" Yuri said. Nana looked at him. "Oh! Sorry, I said too much, forget what I've said" Yuri said as he patted her shoulder and walked off. Nana shook it off and followed close behind.
"Relationer's over there, and the rest find your places" Yuri said. They soon found their places and started to begin racing. "Riku, you can do it, I believe in you" Nana said into the mic "Don't worry, I got this under control" Riku said reassuring her "Go!" Nana said as he took off "Okay, keep going steady…" Nana quietly said "Nana Sakurai right?" Shiki asked as she took of her headphones and nodded "Yes, you must be Shiki Dozono" Nana said "That's right" Shiki said "Yuri, said a lot of things about you" Nana said "Oh? Like what?" Shiki asked "um they weren't very nice things" Nana said "that brat" Shiki quietly said "What did you say?" Nana asked "Oh it's nothing, by the way, you're dating Riku Yagami right?" Shiki asked "Yes, why?" Nana asked "It's nothing, but you should know that he had 3 girlfriends before you" Shiki said. Nana frowned. "Oh really" Nana said putting back on her headphones "I'm afraid, you just being used, I mean he's not even that good looking" Shiki said as he looked at her. "Oh! Also, did you know that once he pinned this girl to the wall and ki…" "Shut up! Just shut up!" Nana yelled as she stood up "Nana? What's wrong?" Heath asked "Oh, it's nothing, I'm sorry" Nana apologised as she sat back down "Pull you're self together, just like Yuri said, don't trust anything" Nana said.
Soon practice was over. Nana quickly stood up and ran over to them. "That girl is so much fun to play with" Shiki said as he laughed. "Great job guys" Nana smiled "It's all thanks to you" Kyosuke said as she shook her head "I didn't do anything, it was all you guys" Nana said "Don't say that, because of you, we got to practice with another school" Riku said as he linked arms with Nana. All of a sudden Riku's cell phone rang. In curiosity Nana took a peak at the name. The name read Meiko. "Excuse me" Riku said as left the group. Shiki walked up to Nana. "I told you so" Shiki said. Nana glared at him. "Hey! Don't blame me" Shiki said "You know it's true" Shiki whispered. Nana looked down. "Hey! Don't pick on her!" Yuri said as he ran over to them.
Yuri looked down at Nana. "What did you say to her?!" Yuri asked "I just told her the truth" Shiki said as he walked off. Nana looked like she was about to cry. "Nana, don't trust a thing he said" Yuri said rubbing her back trying to make her feel better "I don't even know what to believe anymore" Nana said as she ran off. "Nana! Wait!" Yuri yelled. Nana ran to where Riku was. Riku wasn't finished talking on phone. Nana decided to ask him what he has really done in the past so she could prove Shiki wrong about him. "Riku I…" Nana was cut off by Riku's words "Okay…I love you" Riku said into the phone. Nana was completely speechless. As Riku hung up the phone, Nana hid behind a wall. "This can't be happening" Nana thought. She saw Riku walk past her. "How am I going to explain this to her?" Riku quietly said. "Explain what?" Nana thought. Nana ran up to him "Riku…" Nana grabbed his arm "Nana? What's wrong?" Riku asked "I-I want t-to b-break up" Nana said "What?! Why?!" Riku asked as he shook her "I just do, okay!" Nana as she broke free. Yuri finally caught up to them. Nana was in tears. "You! What do you do to her?!" Yuri asked "I did nothing!" Riku said "Nana, come, we'll deal about this later" Yuri said as he glared at him. They left. "Riku? What happened? Are you okay?" Heath asked "Nana…just broke up with me…" Riku said "What?!" They all said in shocked.
