Chapter 9: Her Real Intention – Part 1: Aomine's Lost

Every purpose I have is to see you destroy yourself. This is what I promise to myself ever since I was a child. Because you and I are meant to suffer together.

It was in the middle of the day when the sun was at its highest when a tanned teen decided to go outside to play. His face painted with boredom while both his hands were in the pockets of his black jacket. He smirked when he saw a group of guys hanging out in the usual court. He could not see any notable players so he did not bother asking them for a bet. One of the guys saw him and he heard them talking about something concerning him and basketball bets.

"Hey you there ganguro! Play with us. This stupid guy said that you are too good and wants me to bet with you in a game. I don't believe in any ridiculous thing he says though." A tall, delinquent-looking guy whose skin did not differ much as his skin talks to him.

They never learn. The only one who can beat me is me.

Even he was irritated from hearing what he called him. He could not help but accept the challenge and return the obvious mockery.

"How 'bout I bet on our hands, you stupid monkey" he said mockingly.

The guy almost try punching him but another guy place a basketball between them. "Cool man, let's settle this with basketball" the guy then turns to him." Yo' airhead, as much as we want to keep your smelly hand for our dogs, we want cash, that's 5000 yen for you" the guy holding the ball said.

"Okay but don't cry like a baby later, pussies." He did not have that money with him but there was no point since he knew he would win.

He did not bother to warm up his body. The tip off starts with the referee obviously favoring the other team. If 4 vs 1 were ridiculous enough, they would always made sure he would not hold the ball. This is not new to Aomine, many had tried but the result at the end would always be the same. In the heat of the game, Aomine felt stiffness on his fingers. He ignored it at first but it got more apparent as the game progress.

A guy on his front was dribbling the ball. He predicted that he will turn to his left. He knew that from the way he point his toes. He knew that after the turn, he will drop the ball to his back then his left will get it then he will throw it to the guy who is already raising his hand below the ring. Before the pass happen, he already reacted. He was about to get the ball but then an involuntary movement of his finger prevent him from keeping hold of the ball after touching it.

While the other team was trying to score, he was busy looking at his right hand. He could not believe what he was seeing. His fingers were involuntary shaking and he could not feel his palm. He felt his face getting colder and his heart beating faster. This is not happening.

Dismay was filled in the whole court. He could not think properly but he did not give up and ended up losing his breath from nervousness and from running. Now, he could feel what the other players felt when he was only toying with them. The other team would intentionally pass him the ball and ridicule him when he loses the ball. His fingers would involuntarily twitch every time the ball was about to be in his grasp.

"Are you bunches of losers actually lost to this kind of player? Man, even a kid would feel ashamed with his play" he heard him say.

When he could not get their mocking passes, they would throw the ball at his head making him fall down. He tried to stand up but he would feel another blow in some part of his body. He was still looking at his hand when they started kicking him when they learn that he did not have money with him. He was still shocked so he was not able to block any blow. He was oblivious to the injury he was getting.

"This jerk has the gut to bet when he got no money, like he said he would bet on our arms, let's cut him" he heard someone. When he was no longer moving and only when there were lots of bloods coming out on him that they decided to leave him. The guy who wanted to punch him earlier even spit on him before walking away.

His head is getting lighter and he felt dizzy. He was lying on the ground then his eyes caught glimpse of the light blue sky above him. He remembered the day their group decided to go to the beach.

A tanned teen and a blonde could be seen teasing a short teal headed girl and it was obvious that they were succeeding. Her expression was beginning to change. Her perfectly shape brow was now curving differently. Her pale cheeks were starting to get reddish. She was shouting on them to get back while she runs after them. The two teens decided to hide the bag of the teal head with her changing clothes on it.

"Hey Tetsu, why don't you try wearing that swim wear" the tanned teen said while running with a light blue bag on his hand. When the teal head was about to get to him he passed the bag to the blonde teen.

"Kurokocchi, I personally chose that swim wear and I think it perfectly suits you" the blonde said while running away from her.

"Please don't be ridiculous Aomine-kun, Kise-kun, stop that and give my bag back or feel my ignite pass on your face" the teal head said while still running and holding a pink laced two-piece.

The blond then returned the bag to the tanned teen. Aomine was only wearing a beach shorts with sky blue color at the top and designed with green coconut leaves with darker shade of blue background curving at the bottom. It was raised just a little below his perfecly defined obliques exposing his sexy pack of abdominal muscles. His firm chest and his skin color upgrade his athletic-looks. If any of his fans seen him like that, he would be instantly devoured.

The teal head was getting annoyed by all the running. She threw the pink two-piece at the tanned teen but he reacted fast. Unknown to him at his back there was a red head teen walking towards them. Next thing they saw was a red head with decorated pink garment perfectly placed flat in his face.

The three immediately stiffen. The red head remove the garment in his face using his thumb and index fingers. He could be seen smirking which could only mean an end for all of them.

"Tetsumi, is this suppose to seduce me?" The redhead said while raising the pink garment. The teal head then run away blushing from shame. "Kise, Aomine why don't we start your training right here and I mean right now" he continued. The two teens were not seen on the beach after that incident.

Tetsumi is the closest to him in the group. They would always talk about everything during lunch breaks. His life revolves only around with basketball but it got more exciting because of her. She is the most understanding person he had met. He never judged him from his skin color or from the gravure magazine that she would always caught him reading. It is always comforting around her.

He did not remember how his feelings change towards Tetsumi but he became more competitive whenever she was on court with him. Their team became more popular as the time progressed but he never heard anyone talks about the phantom. No one cheers for her during games even though she was the only girl on the team. He was aware no one appreciates all the efforts she gives in playing. From that, he decided to be strongest light so as a shadow she would become more apparent. His light should be the brightest amongst them. If he did, the phantom would rely more only to his light.

But efforts become wasted when she started going out with their captain. She would not eat lunch with just the two of them. After training, the red head would approach her and thank her for her efforts making the girl blushed. Now it irritates him when someone noticed her other than him. The red head seems blocking every move he made towards the phantom. He could only watch as the red head had late practice with the teal head. He felt a pang in his heart whenever he sees the teal head passing the ball to anyone other than him. He started hating practice and did not want to go on it anymore. He started concentrating on street basketball which is more aggressive that practicing and playing in matches with his team already bores him.

Before his consciousness drifts away, he raised his fist like he was waiting for someone to bump fist with him. His eyes were blurring and he noticed that the light blue sky was replaced by something red. Am I bleeding this much?

"T-tetsu, p-please pass the ball to me again" he said while grasping for air. His eyes were now closed but he could feel someone touched his hand. He could not help but smile.

"Tetsu.."
