The results are in! 50 percent for both, 25 percent for Shintenhouji, and 25 percent for Jyosei Shonan. Thanks to Death Angel's Shadow 2, H.M.Yeo, forgotten hiyoshi, and vaelifivefour for voting (sorry if I missed someone). Chapter 9 is here! Enjoy!

Shiraishi looked at the vending machine he had told Kintarou to buy soda at.

"He must have been here. He forgot to pick up his change. He always does that. But where is he right now?"

Shiraishi continued walking in the same direction. Then, as he approached the last court, he heard a familiar sound. It was the sound of a tennis ball being hit against the wall. "Is it Kintarou? No that can't be right, if it was, there probably wouldn't be any wall left." Shiraishi walked closer. As he approached the boy, he thought he seemed familiar. He walked closer. The sound stopped.

Sorry about the short chapter! I'll updat- OW! ( Shiraishi and Kajimoto whack Ruby on the head for being stupid.)

Shiraishi: The chapter's not over yet!

Kajimoto: Keep reading.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kajimoto turned around. He stared at the other boy in total disbelief for a few seconds. Then he spoke.

"Are you the Shintenhouji tennis team's captain, Kuranosuke Shiraishi?"

"Yes. And are you, by any chance Takahisa Kajimoto from Jyosei Shonan?"

"Yeah, but how did you know that?"

"Your coach came to Shintenhouji last week and tried to recruit me."

"Oh. Stupid Hanamura sensei. Wait, what are you doing in Tokyo?!"

"Kenya's visiting his cousin who goes to Hyotei."

"You wanna play a match?"

"Sure."

Before I forget, apologies to autumn-leaf16 for using the "Hanamura tried to recruit Shiraishi" idea, but it just seemed to fit together. Okay, I was going to put in another survey in this chapter, but there is a new beta for polls now so I'm gonna put it there.
