Echizen resident.

"Emiko, why aren't you telling me the truth?" Masaharu had been chasing Emiko since he came home half an hour after she had.

"I am" Emiko was pretty annoyed by Masaharu and her wrist still hurt a lot. She had taken her power wrist off even though she had wanted to keep them on because she had missed out some of the training, but it had kept on hurting when she came home.

"You're lying" they had gone from the wash room, to their room, to the kitchen, back to their room where Emiko hadn't let him in because she had needed to change out of Fuji-senpais clothes and into the clothes she had borrowed of Nanako. Masaharu had still been waiting when she left the room

"I'm not" Emiko had left the room well knowing that the clothes looked pretty fun on her. It wasn't her style and it was way to big to her.

"I've always been able to tell if you where lying" Masaharu took a grip on Emiko's should and had her stop. "and you're lying" he said looking right in her eyes. Their faces and bodies was suddenly way to close and Emiko pushed Masaharu away, or she tried because using her left wrist hurt.

Masaharu hadn't recognized it before but this time he did. It was easy for him to see that her wrist was in bad shape.

"What happened" he asked and took her wrist. It had started getting some green, yellow and blue colors. Masaharu looked at Emiko.

"I tripped" was all Emiko said with some annoyance in her voice while she was trying to get her wrist back but it was hurting to much.

"You need ice on it" Masaharu dragged Emiko to the kitchen where he found some ice to put on the wrist. After that he made bandage and made sure it was good enough. He still asked a lot of question but Emiko wouldn't say anything to him.

~Flashback~

The girls hadn't been on the street tennis court on time but instead of getting annoyed Emiko used the time to play against the wall.

"So you're already here" the girls said

"Yeah and you're late" Emiko just answered. She had been playing against the wall, making sure the ball hit the same place on the wall no matter where she stood.

"If you can't beat all three of us you can't be in the regular team" the leader said after they had gone to the court. The three girls stood on one side of the net and Emiko on the other.

"alright" Emiko just said. And the match started.

Because of the hurt left wrist Emiko couldn't use it but it wasn't necessary because the girls wasn't good in any way

"6-0 Emizen win" all three games had sounded like that and all three girls was laying somewhere on the street court sounded like they couldn't breath and was in some need of psychological help. Not because Emiko had been using any of her tricks but her serves was to fast for the normal eye and her spin serve was like Ryoma-kun's serve and twisted towards once face, but Emiko could also make a backwards spin. A serve that went the other way.

"We're not done with you" the leader said trying to get to her feet.

"Alright" with a lot of pain but without showing it on her face Emiko changed the hand her racket was in.

"Chihiro this is bad" one of the girls had been dragging herself to the leader. "She's a lefty" they all looked towards Emiko.

"Alright you win for today" was all their leader Chihiro said before they all left.

As soon as they had left the court Emiko had dropped the racket and held onto her left wrist it had begun to be throbbing.

"Emi" Masaharu had stayed somewhere close because when the girls had left, he had run down to her and wanted to help her but Emiko didn't wanted any help from him.

Next day

Classroom

"Echizen Emiko why aren't you taken any notes" their teacher was looking towards Emiko who had been sitting in piece, staring out of the window for about two minutes.

"She hurt her wrist yesterday" Ayume-san, one of the girls from her class rose to her feet and looked towards the teacher. No one in the class liked this teacher. He was always out to get some of the students to cry. He had been able to do that some of the first days but then Emiko had started telling him her mind and after that he had stopped for at period of time.

Ayume-san looked at the teacher like she wanted to give him a piece of her mind, but she didn't. Emiko looked towards her wrist where she had a white bandage on as Masaharu had made sure she was wearing and he had also taken her power wrist so she couldn't use them.

"But she's not a lefty during class" the teacher looked towards Ayume-san

"I can use both hands but I was thinking about the question you asked a little moment ago, because the answer on the blackboard is wrong" Emiko had the normal 'Echizen-attitude' on. An attitude she normally didn't wear.

The teacher was taken by surprise and didn't know how or what to say. To his luck the bell called the students to break before afterschoolclub would start.

"Do the rest of the page as homework" the teacher said while he quickly packed his bag and went out of the classroom.

"Emizen do you want to hang out with us today" some of the girls came to her table and asked.

"Sorry I can't" Emiko answered "I got tennis practice" the girls understood and together they left the classroom.

"Masaharu" Emiko called because Masaharu had been about to leave the classroom. Emiko needed to tell him something.

Tennis court

"Uou can all start your trainings matches" Tezuka-buchou called "but I want to see Kikumaru and Fuji against Emiko" all the regulars looked towards Emiko who just smiled, but they didn't look for a long time because Tezuka-buchou made sure they started doing their own training.

"I think you'll need this" Masaharu was giving Emiko her elastic she had forgotten in the club room together with the bandage she had taken off her wrist before entering the clubroom.

"Thanks" She took the elastic and left the bandage. She made her hair in a messy ponytail, her wrist didn't let her anything else and went towards the court where Fuji-senpai and Eiji was.

"You're not making it a side-way?" Fuji-senpai said looking at her hair.

"No I don't think that will be necessary"

The game started and as long as Emiko didn't use her left wrist or her acrobatic play everything was good.

"4-all" their referee called looking at all three players not knowing who he should cheer on.

"Why aren't you using your left-nya~?" Eiji asked, the game had been on for a while now and Eiji like the rest of the watching regulars had seen it. She had been using her right all the time.

"No I didn't wanted to make it to difficult for you" Emiko was joking about it and they changed courts.

Eiji served and Emiko returned it while running toward left. Fuji-senpai got the ball and of course he returned it towards the right side of the court.

"Chibiko~" Eiji had run toward Emiko who now was laying on the ground holding her left wrist.

It had been some very fast balls and while running towards the right side of the court Emiko had tripped over her own feet but didn't wanted to stop. She had had her racket in her right hand and wanted to use her left to push her self a bit more forward and in that way catch the ball but her left wrist hadn't let her.

She was in more pain now that before the training had started.

"What happened" Fuji-senpai and Eiji had jumped over the net and was at her side. Masaharu had left everything he had and was at her side. He had an ice bag in his hand and placed in on her now swollen wrist.

Emiko flicked by the ice, it was cold and it hurt.

"I know" Masaharu said holding her arm so she couldn't escape. All of the regulars had now gathered around Emiko and Masaharu to hear what had happened.

"Emi if you're not going to tell them I am" Masaharu didn't sounded very happy he mostly sounded very annoyed.

"Masa it's not that big of a deal" Emiko again tried to get her wrist but he didn't let her.

"No big of a deal?" Masaharu looked her in the eyes. Emiko didn't say anything she just sighed. Masaharu looked up on the standing regular team.

"Because Emiko is part of the regular team some of the girls from the school and tennis team is jealousy" he said still holding on to Emiko.

"Oh Masaharu I'll manage" Emiko finally got her arm and wrist out of this grip not sure how to react on all of this,

"Who is it?" Momo-chan-senpai suddenly almost crowed, Emiko who had looked towards her wrist which had gotten some more pretty colors on it could suddenly see that most of the regulars looked like all of this really had gotten to them.

"Emizen" Mikono-san from her class had came into the boys court and looked nervously around on the regulars. She also being a regular fan but that wasn't the reason for why she had come.

"Yes?" Emiko had gotten to her feet and looked at Mikono-san who was really nervously being so close to the regulars.

"A-a-a-a " Mikono-san almost shouted and because she was so nervous, none of them could understand, a word of what she had been saying or none of the regulars.

"Who?" Emiko understood what she had been trying to say.

"it's..." Mikono-san tried but Emiko could see it wouldn't help anything.

"Show me" she said instead. Masaharu held Emiko back after both of them was up and standing again.

"Oh so it's here she is" a creepy voice suddenly said. All the regulars looking towards the voice and a boy with black hair that looked like seaweed had entered the courts.

"Kirihara" Emiko said under her breath. Masaharu turned towards her

"Do you know him" he ask stupidly.

"His son is..." Emiko didn't say anymore because a stone suddenly came her way and it was only with pure luck that she avoided it.

"What was that?"

"Was that a stone"

"Is he serious?"

"Che~"

"Kisama" Momo-chan-senpai was the last one, he was really annoyed but you could see that the rest of the regular team wasn't as calm as Emiko felt she was.

"Hi You" Emiko called and bent down to pic up the stone. "I don't like that you're throwing stones on our court" Emiko had the stone in her right hand. Her racket still being on the ground.

"What do you want?" Momo-chan-senpai asked, he and Kaidou was holding each other back.

"I wanted to see how bad my sister had beaten up the girl regular" Kirihara said looking bored.

"She beat?" Kaidou said with his viper voice.

"I think you've misunderstood something" Fuji-senpai said looking towards Kirihara his eyes wasn't shown, but Emiko could feel the anger from him even though he hit it well.

"Oh I'll just need one match" Kirihara almost begged, Emiko looked toward Tezuka-buchou who face was stoic as always. Tezuka-buchou looked towards Oishi turned around and left the court. Emiko understood he had giving them his approval but he couldn't stay.
