Lol damn. Two updates in one week! Oh shit!
Once the first meeting was over, Riko and Hyuuga made their way to the club office to call Kiyoshi. No one can deny the fact that this year, Seirin gained some powerful allies, especially in Kuroko and Kagami. What they don't know is that Kuroko and Kagami are brothers and have something planned. Riko couldn't get over the fact that someone like Kuroko could be part of the Crownless Generals with a body like his. No one that small and weak could possibly be part of it! And on top of that, Kagami's body is the exact opposite. It is everything that she wanted and more. An unpolished gem waiting for someone to find it and make it pure! Regardless of the outcome, Riko knew this year will bring some unforgettable moments.
Hyuuga couldn't get over the fact that he missed Kuroko's presence. It was as if he was never there from the start. Thinking back to his middle school days, he did hear of a rumor that there was a boy who played basketball that had moves like a phantom yet no one was able to confirm it for the longest time who exactly it was. Now though, Hyuuga was starting to think maybe he found who the Phantom player is.
"Hey, where's the phone?" Hyuuga couldn't remember where the phone was.
"Should be on the desk. Lift the papers and see if it got buried."
"No, it's not here."
"Maybe it's on the- ha! Found it! Some idiot left it on the couch!" Riko was looking right at Hyuuga with a glare.
"Sorry, I forgot. Just hurry up and call."
"Fine, fine…." After several rings Kiyoshi picked up. "Hey! What's up?"
"Kiyoshi! We just had our first meeting and there's something you should know." Riko stated with a hint of worry but also glad to be talking to Kiyoshi.
"Which is what?"
"Someone from Teiko is here and joined the basketball club."
"Really? I can't think of anyone from Teiko who would want to join."
"It's Kuroko Tetsuya, one of the Crownless Generals and on top of that, we have a student from America too. With this year's freshmen, I think we have a chance at the championship this year."
"Hm…. well, we do have to train just as hard as before too. We can't let our defenses down. Look, I trust you and Hyuuga. Just do what you were doing and it'll be fine. Just don't worry about it and I'll be back before you know it. I gotta go. I promised to visit the kids today."
"All right, I'll talk to you later then." With that Riko hung up. "So he said not to worry right?" Hyuuga wondered.
"You were right. He said not to worry." Really, Kiyoshi wasn't worried but he did wonder why someone like Kuroko Tetsuya was at Seirin. The last time his middle school team faced Teiko, his team almost lost until the made the winning shot; however, there was an incident that happened with the Teiko team after the game, but Kiyoshi wasn't there as he left immediately to go home… but that didn't mean he didn't have an idea of what happened.
"Seeeeeeeee! Besides, Kiyoshi will be back soon. You know, we should have a practice match between the first years and second years… just to see what areas we need to work on more."
"Yes and we can see what kind of player Kuroko is…" It was the one thing that was bother Riko and Hyuuga the most. No one has seen Kuroko played before, and even if Hyuuga did play his school back in middle school, he wouldn't have remembered as his school was busy dealing with Kiyoshi's old school. With that in mind, Riko and Hyuuga left the office and went home.

"Like always, you just had to buy that many burgers." Kuroko stated
"I can't help it. You know it's been years since I had any Maji Burger!" Kagami inhaled everything then started gobbling everything down as if there was no tomorrow.
"Just remember, you're the one that's paying for this."
"I know, I know, you don't need to keep reminding me."
"Good. I also invited someone to join us."
"Who?" Kagami couldn't think of anyone would come out at this time of night.
"Me." Kagami recognized the voice behind him and started to go pale.
"S- S- Sei- Seijuro! You're here! Tetsu, you should've told me he was going to be here!" He really didn't think Akashi would be there cause even though the next day was a weekend, he would've thought Akashi would stay at school until then… and the last time he saw Akashi, he told Kagami not to come back until his basketball improved or else there would be hell to pay.
"What did you expect? And I remember telling you not to come back until your basketball improves." Akashi had a bit of fury in his eyes but Kagami can tell that there was a hint of amusement in his eyes too.
"It couldn't be helped. America was getting lonely and I missed my bro and cousins. You can't blame me for that and no worries, I picked up some new skills while I was there and I have a present for you too!" Well… Akashi couldn't argue with that. It has been awhile since he last saw his step- cousin and as long as Kagami gives him scissors, then everything is cool.
"Fine… and I'm guessing you didn't tell Kise that you're back."
"Well… I did want to surprise him."
"If he kills you, then it's not my problem. You know he's been going on about you. Kagami this, Kagami that, my cousin is so awesome, my cousin is the greatest, on and on."
"All right, I'll tell him soon then, better?"
"And this is why you will always be bakagami." There was no doubt in Kuroko's mind that Kagami is Kagami and will always be bakagami, but no matter what he is reliable. "Hurry up and finish your burgers. I want to go to the street court; I wanted to play you when you come back."
"And we'll see what you learned," Akashi said with an evil glint in his eyes.
"Ah! Heh….heh…no worries Akashi…but I'm not going to reveal everything. By the way, what are you doing back? I thought you'd be staying at school."
"I did want to see the step- cousin who decided to go to America on a whim and coming home on a whim. Don't question what I do. Just do as I say and all will be fine."
"All right, all right. Not questioning a word." Kagami was sweating like crazy. Who in their right mind would go against Akashi? His word was the law.
"Bakagami will always be bakagami. Let's go."
"You could be a bit nicer Tetsu." Akashi then left the table along with Kagami. At this point, everyone was eager to get a game in.
"No."
"So blunt."
"You are too Seijurou."
"Heh… I know." Once again Akashi had that evil glint in his eyes
"Some things will never change," Kuroko said with a sigh and with that said, everyone left Maji Burger satisfied.
~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~
"So you mind telling me what's up with you guys lately? From what Kuroko was telling me earlier, it seems like something big happened." Kagami couldn't stop wondering what it was that they wanted to tell him. It's been six years since he's been back to Japan and left for America. When he left in third grade, he didn't think anything would happen. After all, he intended to stay for only a year but that wasn't the case. Instead, he found something wonderful: a basketball trainer and a friend- Himuro Tatsuya. However, since Himuro is a year older, he graduated before Kagami and went back to Japan but Kagami told him to contact Kuroko so that once he get to Japan, he would have a challenge. They've stayed in contact and Himuro became good friends with the others but still, it has been years since he last saw anyone. Now that Kagami, Kuroko, and Akashi were at the street court, Kagami figured that it was safe to ask what's been happening since they were away from any eavesdroppers. You never know who's listening in.
"How about this: it'll be two vs one, you against me and Kuroko. If you can score at least once against us, we'll tell you. If you can't, you tell us what you've been doing over and who you've been training with." Akashi wanted to know if Kagami was slacking or actually doing something.
"Fine, but I won't be showing you everything." If Kagami did that, then he wouldn't have any surprises left.
"Whatever you want. Here, you have the first ball and we'll play til one of us scores three times."
Kagami then started to make his way down the court with Akashi blocking him. He couldn't help but grin. "This is way too easy," Kagami thought but then something happened when he was about to dunk. Kuroko came out of nowhere and knocked the ball away. "What? Where did you come from?" He didn't bother paying attention to his area so he didn't count on Kuroko appearing in front of him and knocking the ball away.
"I did develop a new technique while you were gone."
"Heh… don't underestimate us… Bakagami!" Once again Akashi had that evil grin and with that, Kuroko passed him the ball and Akashi went for the dunk making the scores 0-1. "That's one for us. Now you have to tell us what you've been doing."
"Fine. I've been training with Alex even after Tatsuya left and I've been learning the business with dad." Kagami's dad is the CEO of one of the top leading technology in the world, producing cars, motorcycle, computers, TV, toys- you name it, but also keeping things eco- friendly.
"Then it's decided that you're going to take over the company," Kuroko stated.
"No, it's decided that all of us would take over the company. There's no way I can do this by myself and you guys are family too. Only difference is I'm the head of the company."
"I can live with that as long as I'm the head in weaponry."
"Sure, whatever you want Akashi." There was no way Kagami was going to argue with that and he's sure that Akashi is dependable and nothing would happen. "Let's get on with the game. There's way too much talk for my liking." And the game went on…
~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~x~
"I still can't believe I owe you guys food!" Kagami yelled with a bit of devastation. To make the game more interesting, Akashi proposed another bet. The loser has to treat the winner to a month worth of Maji Burger. It ended with the score being 3-2 in favor of Akashi and Kuroko. Throughout the game, all Kagami did was dunk. Dunk, dunk, dunk. Kuroko had enough of it and told him to get serious but Kagami said he was and just wasn't going to show all the moves since it IS an informal match. So, in the end Akashi decided to end it with a lay- up.
"Deal with it. Consider this as pay back for not telling me you were back and you were foolish enough to take that bet too. Be glad I'm not Midorima. Otherwise he would slaughter you since today is his day." Again Akashi was being Akashi.
"All right you two, let's just go home and deal with it all tomorrow. You coming or going back to school?" Kuroko asked.
"Coming. I told Aunty that I'd be sleeping over."
"You know where your room is then."
"No sweat! It'll be just like the good old days."
"…..Aaaaaahhhahahaha the good old days…. Those were fun… I guess." Kagami's idea of good old days was a little bit different from how Akashi imagined it. Back then, whenever Akashi and Kise visited Kuroko and Kagami, Kise would cry, Akashi would fight with Kagami over everything and Kuroko would play peacemaker. It was just chaotic. "We should get Kise to come over."
"Actually, he is coming over," Kuroko stated.
"What?" That wasn't what Kagami had in mind. Akashi was one thing but Kise was another.
"He was planning to come over from the start so there's no helping it. You'll just have to explain everything to him once he comes over."
"Fine, fine…I won't lie though. I am looking forward to seeing him." And really he was. Throughout the entire day Kagami had a grin on his face. It's been way too long since he's last seen anyone. Keeping in touch through phone and email is one thing but in person is another. Regardless of how long and what the situation is, Kagami was glad to see Kuroko and Akashi. He just hopes that when Kise sees him, he doesn't say who is that… he has been told that he looks very foreign even if he is Japanese born.

Kuroko and Kagami's English class
"All right class, we're going to review what you guys learned last year and remember, I will not tolerate any funny business so pay attention." The teacher was in a horrible mood since he had to take over the English class since the previous teacher quit just one day before school started. Now he was in a rush to get the curriculum ready and see where everyone is.
…*snore*….*snore*…..Kagami ended up falling asleep and didn't realize it was English.
"Now, I want someone to translate this on the board to English: Today, I went to the store to get some grocery for my mother… Kuroko, come up here and translate this."
…*snore*….*snore*…
Kuroko went up to the board to translate "Hm…. correct, but you misspelled grocery and it should be get not got. Not bad. Now class, here's the next sentence: I heard that you're settle down, that you found a girl and you're married now…I heard that your dreams came true, guess she gave you things I didn't give you."
…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…
"Anyone want to take a stab at this? Should be easy since it's from Someone Like You by Adele."
…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*… "Any takers?" …*snore*….*snore*
…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*…
*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…
*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*
…*snore*….*snore*…*snore*….*snore*…
"…OI KAGAMI!" The teacher got enough of the snoring and threw a piece of chalk at Kagami. "WAKE UP! Since you were sleeping, you can translate this to English!"
And so Kagami went up to the board. While the teacher's back was turned away from Kagami, he said to the class, "Everyone, this is why you don't sleep in my class. I will pick on you and make you come up and translate everything to English."
"Finished."
"Let's have a look…..hm…..everything…..is perfect!" The teacher was extremely surprised along with the rest of the class except Kuroko.
"I did study at America for six years so I would hope my English would be perfect."
The teacher and the class had their mouths wide open.

I do not own Kuroko no Basket
I own any original characters you see here (though I doubt there will be any... maybe only a few).
If there's any grammatical errors, let me know and I'll fix it. I'm usually good about it but the lack of sleep is making me see things lol.
.
Sweet! Two updates in one. It's amazing! Anyway, if you didn't get it the first time, Kuroko and Akashi are cousins and Kagami and Kise are cousins and since Kuroko and Kagami are step- brothers, that makes Akashi and Kagami step- cousin and same with Kise and Kuroko. I've seen some story where Kuroko and Akashi were cousin and I thought that was interesting so why not and the thing with Kise and Kagami being cousins...well why not lol. It's actually cause of the latest chapter when Kagami was wishing Kise luck and how Kise was watching Seirin's match and telling Kagami something (I forgot what it was LOL). Anyway, seeing how they treated each other gave me this idea.
Also, I have more planned for Himuro and his back story too, which I think will be interesting. Maybe a mini arc for him lol!
.
I hope you like this chapter and leave a review! It lets me know if you guys love or hate this and it is good for motivations!

~~Ciao for now!~~
