I want reviews... (cries) Please R&R!

Hoshi (Star)

The girl's tennis team of Ginka hid behind the very same trees their male counterpart had concealed themselves behind last year. Ironically, they were doing pretty much the same thing.

"Why are we hiding here?! Seigaku isn't even a seeded team. We don't even need to be worried about them!"

"But captain, this year's team has a whole new regular's batch compared to before. I've been to their school to scout just in case, and they've improved a lot."

"Che. They were so horrible before, any little thing would be called improvement."

"But... Oh, there they are!"

There was a general scramble to get a clear view of the main path. The Seigaku girl's uniform bore a striking resemblance to the boy's. The very same jacket covered their tennis dresses. The tops looked just like the boys', paired with blue tennis skirts.

"The girl in front with the brown hair is Fuji Sumiko, second year captain of Seigaku. I hear she is a formidable opponent. What more, being tensai Fuji Syuusuke's younger sister, she apparently can use the famed Triple Counters. As far as I know, she seems to be running the club successfully despite being without a proper coach.

"The dark haired girl behind her is the vice-captain, Wakana Michiko, the only third-year on the current team. During all the time I was at Seigaku, that expressionless face didn't falter at all, which is just creepy... Anyway, it's not clear what style of tennis she uses, but it might be something like data tennis.

"The twins over there who are jumping around and acting all hyper are the Sakurai twins or 'Yuki' as they are known as a doubles pair. The only way to tell them apart is by their hair. The one with a ponytail on the left is Yuzuyu and right is Yuzuki. They are really flexible, and seem to use acrobatic play.

"Karino Izumi is that girl who has dark-blue hair. She's the tallest girl in the Seigaku team. Besides tennis, she is good in track-and-field, which stands to reason that she specializes in speed and stamina.

"Hasegawa Tsuki. She hasn't shown any specialties yet, but she definitely passed through the ranking matches without breaking a sweat, even beating former captain Arashi Airi 6-0.

"Then there's the first-year, Muranaka Suzume. Don't think she is weak with that tiny frame of hers, her speed is quite terrifying. Believe me; I've watched her at practice.

"Lastly is second-year Ume Natsumi. Like Hasegawa, she seems pretty normal for now, but you never know." Ginka's manager finished the description of the newest entrees to the girl's junior high tennis world. All of the members looked at her dubiously.

After a while, the captain stood up. "We can't repeat the same mistake the boy's team did! Do your best, we're going to take them straight on!"

Despite the motivation those words incurred in the Ginka regulars, when it was a match of talent vs. motivation...... May the best win? (cough)

It's short, I know. The next chapter will be longer, I promise! I'll try to update soon! Review please!

EDIT: I changed the tennis dresses to match the proper one in the manga. In the background, there are some girls who are wearing what appears to be the regulars' uniform.
