Everyone, I am so so so so so sorry for not updating for more than a year! I didn't realize it was that long ago! I was going to write but I kinda got lazy and these pass few weeks had been really busy. But I'm at spring break now, so I will try my best to update again soon!
"Welcome to my house," Oishi said as he opened his front door to let the others in. "Oh, Fuji, let me help you get inside." He offered his hand to support Fuji as they entered the house.
"Thanks, Oishi," Fuji smiled.
"Thanks again for letting us use your house as the place for the meeting, Oishi," Tezuka said as he entered Oishi's house and started to take off his shoes.
"No problem," Oishi smiled, "well, don't just stand there, c'mon in, Echizen, Telinka."
"Oh, right!" Echizen and Telinka both replied after a bit of zoning out. They stilled couldn't believe all that had happened today. First Echizen did defeated Yukimura in S1 in an amazing fashion, which made Seigaku national champion, and now they are finding out that they have special powers. They entered the house slowly as they tried to get all these things into their heads.
"Well, guess the others will be a bit late," Oishi assumed, "might as well heal you now, huh, Fuji?" Oishi asked Fuji, while pointing to a chair for Fuji to sit.
"Ah, right," Fuji smiled as he walked toward the chair.
"I'm really sorry for what happened, Fuji sempai," Telinka lowered her head while walking toward the chair, where Fuji was sitting. The last thing she would ever want was for someone to get hurt because of her, physically or emotionally.
"Don't worry about it," Fuji smiled to reassure her. "It's better than what would have happen if I wasn't there."
"What do you mean by that, Fuji sempai?" Telinka confusingly asked kneeing down next to Fuji. She wanted a closer look at how Oishi was going to heal Fuji.
"It's nothing, Telinka. Don't worry about it," Oishi said as he walked toward them. He then put his hands on top of Fuji's wound and a pale green light started to shine around the wound. The wound was slowly disappeared.
"Wow…" Telinka was left speechless. She had never seen anything like this before. This kind of stuff only happened in fairy tale, but now it's appearing right before her eyes. "Ryoma, you got to see this!" Telinka called her brother out to watch this.
"Argh, fine," Echizen replied as he slowly got up and went to see what Telinka was so excited about. When he got there, he was left speechless too. "O… Oishi sempai, I didn't know you could do that."
"Well, duh! That was kind of the point of not telling you guys till now," a voice said behind them. It turned out to be Momo's voice when they all turned around.
"Ah, Momo sempai," Echizen and Telinka said in unison.
"Good, everyone is here. Now, we can talk." Tezuka said as he saw Kikumaru, Takashi, Inui, and Kaidoh walked in behind Momo. "Guess we can started with what magic is." Tezuka decided after everyone's sitting down.
"That would be a good place," Echizen whispered. Telinka giggled quietly when she heard that.
"Magic, basically, is using the power that is around you and form it in the way you desire," Tezuka explained as his left hand was engulfed by a bright golden light. "This is the basic form of magic, nothing but a bright light. The color of magic depends on your personality. Once you are able to do this, you can advance it to a higher level, which you can use to attack or defend," Tezuka then closed his eyes and focused. The golden light at his hand then formed into water. "We can form the magic into any element, but most of us just focus on training one type of element, to make it most powerful as it can be."
"So at least for now, you guys got to learn how to use magic at its most basic form," Oishi explained.
"Why are we dragged into this until now?" Echizen asked. "You guys could have just taught us when we first entered Seigaku."
"Well, we had to be sure, and at that time tennis was more important," Momo said quietly for the last part.
"Beside it's better if you guys don't know about your power," Kaidoh said calmly.
"Why is that?" Telinka asked confusingly.
"Because of your ability to use crystal," Fuji said pointing toward Telinka's crystal necklace. This time is Fuji's turn to explain. "Crystal is the purest and most powerful form of magic, which makes it the hardest to control. Most people can't use it unless they work with a crystal bearer."
"And that would be you," Takashi pointed to Telinka.
"And ochibi, nya!" Kikumaru cheered as he jumped onto Echizen's shoulders.
"Which was the reason why that weird guy and that lady want you two," Fuji said finishing his statement.
"Oh," Echizen and Telinka said in unison. They finally understood why those two were after them.
"We'll start training tomorrow at 9 with Rikkaidai," Inui said pushing his glasses up.
"Eh? Why with Rikkaidai? Can they use magic too," Telinka asked. Everyone else was surprised at this announcement as well.
"Yes, they can. As matter of fact, I learned it from Renji." Inui replied. "I called Renji on the way here and he said that Rikkaidai would love to help out. Yukimura said it could be a fun challenge to take on. Besides, I think it'll be a great way to train you two anyway. Though, Yukimura said that they wouldn't be here until around 10."
"I see. That's fine. Hopefully by then, you two will at least be able to use magic at its basic form. Alright, everyone, we will meet up at Seigaku's tennis court tomorrow at 9. Everyone get a good night sleep. We're going to train hard tomorrow," Tezuka dismissed everyone.
"Yes, buchou," everyone yelled.
I know it's a bit of slow start, but I think this is the last slow start chapter. I'll try to speed things up now. As Kenya would say, "No speed, no life!" =D
Please comment, thank you :)
