Chapter 3
The weekend has come and gone. The sky is blue; birds soar in the sky, students walking towards their school. The weather is beautiful.
Sakuno walked happily towards school. Her smile widened remembering the conversation she had with her friends last night.
--Flash back--
Sunday evening. 7:00 pm.
Sakuno was in her room, on her desk doing her math homework. Chewing at the end of the pencil, trying to solve the given equation. Her brows furrowed, nothing coming into mind. Kuso, why does math have to be so hard? She sighed.
'You've got an Instant message' she heard the computer said. She looked up from her homework. She smiled when she read who it was. She dropped her pencil and opened the conversation box.
--Conversation-- r0ckergRim: Hey Sa-chan!

Sakuno sighed then smiled. She can't wait to see them. She returned to her homework finally finishing it after an hour or so before heading to bed with a grin.
-- end of Flashback--
She reached school and headed straight to the tennis courts to meet her grandmother who left early that morning for the boys' early tennis practice.
"Ohayo, Obaa-chan" she greeted her grandmother who waved her to walk faster.
"Ohayo, Sakuno. You sure are early today" her grandmother stated while smiling at her granddaughter who beamed up at her. "Here to watch Echizen practice?" she smiled mischieviously down at her grandchild, who blushed. She chuckled at her granddaughter's shy antics.
Sakuno shook her head. "I'm just really excited to finally see the sempai-tachi" she said excitedly. Her grandmother smiled down at her. She knows that she misses her friends and was told that they were coming to visit today.
"Maybe they would like to play against the boys? Don't you think Sakuno?" she said watching the regulars practice. Sakuno looked at the team in front of her, nodding at her ba-chan's statement.
--o0o0o0o0o0o--
A girl with chestnut brown hair was running followed by another with raven black hair.
"COME BACK HERE KYUICHI!" the girl with the raven back hair screamed at the said girl.
"NO! YOU'RE GOING TO HIT ME!" the girl, Kyuichi, shouted back. She turned around and stuck her tongue out to the other girl, then waved the piece of paper in her hand. Her smile grew when she saw the girl glaring angrily at her while blushing. She started running again.
"YOU'RE DEAD! GIVE THAT BACK!" yelled the raven haired girl. She stopped running when she saw someone ahead. She smirked when she saw Kyuichi fall on her ass. She jogged down the direction to pick up the fallen paper, only someone beat her to it.
--
The girl, Kyuichi, was running blindly from the girl when she bumped onto someone. She fell on her butt which caused her to drop the paper. She looked up at the person she bumped into and smiled apologetically. She stood up to apologize.
"Sorry, Kitame-buchou." She bowed. She saw her captain looking at the picture in her hand. She looked at Kyuichi who was rubbing the back of her head then turned her eyes to the girl behind who's eyes were avoiding hers. She looked back at the picture. There was the raven haired girl sleeping graced with a gentle smile. Beside her was a golden retriever, deep in sleep. She smiled slightly and handed it back to the raven haired girl.
"Ne, Kyuichi, Iwao. Stop fooling around. We have to get going." She said kindly and gracefully walked towards the bus outside the park where they all were supposed to meet.
"Hai!" said the two and followed their captain.
--
They reached the bus where everyone was gathered and ready to go. They were chatting.
"HYA! I can't wait!" said the girl with orange hair, jumping in the air.
"Saa. Calm down Miwa-chan, we still have a long way to go." Said a girl smiling. Her hair was light purple tied into two buns with a white ribbon on each side of her head. Miwa pouted and smiled at the girl.
"Demo, Hitomi-chan, aren't you excited to finally see Sakuno-chan?" said Miwa looking her in the eye.
"Of course I am" the said girl, Hitomi, smiled at her friend.
"Minna, let's go" their captain said as she stood next to the bus door, waiting for the rest of the team to get on it.
"Hai" everyone replied. One by one, they hopped on the bus, and found their seats.

-- back in Seigaku --
It was the end of morning classes and everyone was happily chatting away on their way to the cafeteria. Ryuuzaki-sensei had told the team that they are to meet at the tennis courts during lunch.
So the regulars met at the tennis courts, busily chatting away. There was also Ryuuzaki Sakuno with her grand mother.
"I wonder what Ryuuzaki-sensei wanted us here for?" asked Kawamura, no one in particular.
"There is a 68 percent chance that it would be a meeting for the next tournament, and a 32 percent that it would be visitors" Inui said pushing his glasses up. The regulars stared at the data man.
"What visitors?" said Kaidoh, who was walking beside him.
"Saa… we'll just have to wait. Don't we?" said Fuji, popping out of no where.
When they reached the courts, they settled on the benches or on the court grounds waiting for the coach to announce whatever it is she needs to say. They were told to quiet down when the coach came with her grand daughter following behind.
"ryuuzaki-sensei, what is this announcement?" asked a confused and worried Oishi. He took a glance at the freshman behind their coach.
"well, we are going to have guest today and so I want you guys to meet them. Their also one of the best tennis teams I've taught from a previous school –" she took a glance at her grand daughter who was smiling. She looked back up on the team who also looked at the young girl with confused looks.
"they're Sakuno-chan's friends, so please be kin--" Ryuuzaki-sensei was interrupted. Every one looked behind the coach.
--
"Are we there yet?" asked Miwa, looking out the window.
"hai… we are" said the captain. The girls looked outside the window to see that they had stopped in front of a high school.
"Seigaku High" said Hitomi with a smile. Everyone jumped out their seats and grabbed their gears.
"Ah. There!" Kyuichi announced pointing at the tennis courts. There were a group of boys in the courts with Ryuuzaki-sensei. Everyone followed to where she was pointing and smiled. Kyuichi started running followed by everyone else.
"Ryuuzaki-sensei!!" she yelled catching the attention of group.
