I do not own PoT


~~NORMAL P.O.V~~

Karupin passed the canteen before climbing the steps to the rooftop. It saw the door open and went outside, onto the rooftop. Suddenly, a big gust of wind blew the door shut and Karupin, being a cat, couldn't open it. Then, during lunch time, some girls opened the door and Karupin seized its chance and ran inside.

It was oblivious to the worry it caused its owner. Karupin found its way into the tennis clubroom and was found by Kaidoh. Surprisingly, Kaidoh played with Karupin. Jamie entered the clubroom after Kaidoh left. "Eh?" she said, looking at Karupin, "What's your name? Who do you belong to?" Karupin meowed loudly at her. Jamie's eyes widened. "Echizen's? I better get you to Momo," she said, picking it up. "Ah! Echizen's cat!" Momo exclaimed, wide-eyed. "You better give it back to him, he must be really worried," Jamie said, placing Karupin in Momo's arms. He nodded and walked home with the third years. They soon reached their own stops. Taka-san left the group when they reached the sushi shop and Fuji was given a lift by his sister. Kaidoh and Jamie's houses were in the opposite direction.

They passed a sport shop when they heard someone they knew scream, "Ah! Short by 80 yen!" Eiji ran out of the shop. "E-Eiji," Oishi said in surprise. Realizing he was there, Eiji ran to him and said, "Oishi! Please lend me 80 yen. Lend me 80 yen!" Finally, they reached Echizen's house, right before he ran to school. He almost closed the door on them when Momo grabbed it and said, "Oi, oi, hold on! Here you go." Karupin popped out from inside Momo's uniform. "Thanks," Echizen said, bowing slightly. "This is from Ryuzaki-sensei," Tezuka said as he gave the first year a piece of paper. "I'll place your bag here, okay?" Oishi asked as he placed Echizen's tennis bag on the ground. "Bye bye!" exclaimed the ever so hyper acrobat.

Once Tezuka, Oishi and Eiji left, Echizen said to Momo, "Ah, that's right. Do you want to play a little? In return of the favor earlier." "Returning a favor with a match?" the second year said.

Somewhere else, Jamie was walking Mairu around and said with a sigh, "The prefectural tournament is coming up…It's going to be fun, ne Mairu?"


I feel sad about this chapter...

Oh well, what's done is done.
