Disclaimer: I do not own Prince of Tennis, if I did, I'd have made Inui Juice

xXx

Yuki ran into the court right after dropping off her bag in the locker room. Eiji ran in behind her, panting.

"Oh! Hi Cho-chan!" Eiji said, flashing a "V' sign at her.

"Eiji! Cho-chan!" Oishi called out, obviously relieved

Is Cho-chan like, my universal nickname now?"

"You're late," Tezuka said stoically.

Inui popped up behind the pair, glasses glinting. "May I suggest my previously successful Vegetable Juice, Golden Deluxe Remix?"

Tezuka nodded.

Yuki observed the drink closely. At first, it seemed to be a pretty golden color, on a closer inspection, she realized it was opaque. Yuki shivered and glanced over at Eiji, who had gone white.

"Gentlemen first," Yuki said, pushing Eiji forward.

"Ehh?!" Eiji exclaimed.

Inui pushed the cup into his and Yuki's hands. By this time, the whole tennis club was watching the three.

Eiji gulped and drained the glass as quickly as he could. He started running towards the water fountain. Halfway there, he doubled over and gagged. Yuki observed, amused.

Yuki quietly pulled something out of her hoodie pocket. Kaidoh noticed this; it was a flask of what seemed to be silver glitter. He watched her sprinkle it in her drink, a poof of smoke floated up the surface of the drink. Yuki noticed Kaidoh watching her, she winked at him and put a finger to her lips.

Kaidoh went "Fshhh."

Yuki smiled, and quickly rearranged her features as Inui looked up from writing data about Eiji's reaction to Inui Juice.

"Cho-chan, you can drink the juice now," Fuji said, smiling sadistically.

Yuki tentatively took a sip of it. She broke into a smile, "It's really good!" she said, giggling.

Tezuka's eyebrow twitched, She sounded a lot like Yuki just then.

Momo and Kaidoh stared at her like she was an alien. Inui's pencil started scribbling fiercely. Oishi looked at her, concerned, "Cho-chan, are you sure you're okay? You don't feel light-headed or anything?"

"I'm fine Oishi-san," Yuki said abruptly.

Eiji stumbled back into the court at that moment, "Huh? W-what'd I miss?"

"Eiji!" Oishi exclaimed, running over to him, "Daijoubu?"

"Y-yeah, just a little dizzy,"

Yuki strode up to him and examined his face; he looked like he had a hangover. She pulled a container out of her pocket, and handed a pill to Eiji.

"Here, dissolve it in water and drink it," she said and walked over to the wall to practice.

Eiji stared after her and glanced at the pill. Oishi handed him a water bottle and Eiji dropped the pill in. It dissolved almost immediately. The water seemed to have a silvery sheen to it. He drank it all in one gulp. It tasted like peppermint and a hint of caramelized sugar.

"Whoa!" Eiji sprang up and did a couple flips. "I feel so much better, nya!" He did handsprings all the way over to where Yuki was slamming the ball against the wall. He glomped her and said, "Thank you Cho-chan, nya!"

"Get off me, Kikumaru-senpai," Yuki said stiffly.

"Gomen, Eiji said, releasing her.

Yuki had an idea flash through her brain, "Oi, do you want to play a match, Kikumaru-senpai?"

"Sure!" Eiji said, running to the court.

xXx

Yuki said, "Ne, can I have the serve, Eiji-senpai? I want to try something out."

"Sure, Cho-chan!"

Yuki stood in the middle of the court, bouncing the ball against the court harshly, as if feeling how bouncy it was. She finally threw it up in the air and served.

The ball looked deceptively simple. It flew straight at Eiji who hit a straight shot right back at her. She hit a straight shot back and they rallied straight shots back and forward. Eiji suddenly hit a cross shot to the right corner.

The ball then finally did something strange. It curved back to Yuki, who hit it back calmly.

Eiji's eyes widened as he let the ball pass, "15-Love!"

Kaidoh went, "Fshh."

Fuji's eyes snapped open, "Oi, Inui, did you see that?"

Inui's pencil was scribbling against the paper.

"NANI? Was that the Tezuka Zone?" A freshman exclaimed.

Yuki hit another ball that swerved towards her. The next ball curved behind her, Yuki twisted her back and hit the ball back to the opposite court.

"No," Ryoma muttered. "Hers is better."

Inui nodded, "When Tezuka uses the Tezuka Zone, he has to move his foot around to hit the ball back if it curves behind him. Cho-chan is using a different, more complex technique. She's not moving her feet at all."

"She has a flexible back so she back twist to reach those shots, even Tezuka can't do that."

Eiji lobbed the ball over the net and Yuki smiled cryptically. She calmly stared at the lob as it flew over her head and landed near the baseline.

"15-15!" The referee called.

"Why did she miss that lob?" Momo asked.

"Cho-chan is short, so maybe jumping is her weakness," Oishi pointed out.

Ryoma shook his head, "No, that was an abnormally low lob; I would've had no problem reaching that."

Fuji's eyes were still open, "Then she's baiting Eiji."

"Hm, it appears so, but it may be another of her tricks," Inui said, his pencil scribbling faster.

Eiji lobbed the ball again and Yuki smirked. She lauched into a back tuck and hit the ball from between her legs.

"EHH?!" the freshmen exclaimed.

"Acrobatic… Tennis…" Oishi said, shocked.

Yuki landed lightly in the exact same spot she had been standing before.

"I'm starting to suspect speed is her weakness, since she refuses to move," Inui said.

Fuji shook his head, "No, she faked a serve-and volley in our one-point match, but as soon as I lobbed it, she was at the baseline. She's fast."

"Hn," Ryoma said, "We should have Monkey King examine her."

Tezuka watched her Zone closely, How is she getting such good spin on the ball? It took me years to master that…

"Game, Cho-san! 5 games to Love." The ref called.

Yuki smirked; This guy isn't that hard to beat… Mitsu-nii could take him, easy. Oh wait; he's a doubles player, isn't he?

She served and they began a rally. Yuki bent into a sprinter's stance and zipped up to where the ball was going to land and hit a drop shot.

"15-Love!"

"She's moving around finally," Inui muttered, writing down more data.

"She's fast!" Momo exclaimed.

"Fshh," Kaidoh said, but he still watched with interest.

"40-Love!" Yuki scored another with another drop shot. All her finishing shots had been drop shots… She's going to finish it with a lob!"

Eiji served and stepped back. Yuki smirked and hit the ball in what seemed to be a normal drop shot.

Crap! Drop Shot?!

Eiji ran up to the net but he was too late, the ball hit the ground…

…and continued rolling.

"Zero-Shiki…" Inui said.

"…Drop Shot…" Fuji finished.

The entire tennis club was silent.

"Amazing, even her Zero-Shiki Drop Shot is better than Tezuka's." Inui noted, "Tezuka drops his racket by 1.25 inches to hit a Zero-Shiki, Cho-chan's racket doesn't drop any more than it normally does."

Yuki strode off the court and grabbed her water bottle. She took a long drink.

"Neh,"

Yuki turned around to see Kaidoh.

"Oh, Kaidoh-senpai, what do you want?"

"What did you put in your Inui Juice?"

The regular's ears pricked. She put something in her juice? Oishi thought, Is that why she had no reaction?

Yuki smiled and pulled out the silver flask of glitter, "You mean this? I call it Magic. It's a drink stabilizer; my friend was watching a practice where a lot of Inui Juice was involved. I figured if I was going to join the tennis team, I better make myself immune to Inui Juice."

"May I see it?" Inui said.

Yuki tossed the flask to him, "You can examine it or whatever, I have a whole pitcher of it at home and the recipe."

Inui opened the flask and sniffed it, he tasted a bit. It was heavenly; it had a curious mixture of Chantilly cream and the taste of frozen chocolate.

"I put it in a mixture of mud; it purifies all liquid as well." Yuki said.

She glanced at her watch, it was time to go, Yuki glided off the court and into the locker rooms.

xXx
