Moya used to play in basketball team and can use misdirection like Kuroko and Emperor's Eye like Akashi in Kuroko no Basuke; she passed her misdirection skill to Shoyo but he rarely uses it.

Italic letters – thoughts
This is a mix of the manga and anime, the start is from Season 2, episode 24 from the anime. Please forgive me if I do not write that much volleyball action scenes, I am unfamiliar with the terms and actions so please bear with me. Thank you!
Aoba Josai VS Karasuno game
During the break of Set 3, with the Karasuno's score at 25 points and Aoba Josai at 24 points. (based on anime, Season 2, Episode 24)
So tired… thought Shoyo as he wipes the sweat off his forehead, panting really hard. He takes a peek at the scoreboard when suddenly,
"ONI-CHAN! GAN-BATTE!"
Shoyo whipped his head so fast at hearing this, his teammates were surprised he did not get a crick in the neck. Together, they followed Shoyo's line of vision and were surprised to see a girl with a really light orange hair and brown eyes, wearing a hospital gown and sitting on a wheelchair.
"Moya…." Said Shoyo as tears starts to fill his eyes.
"ONI-CHAN! Use misdirection to 50%! I give you permission!" Moya yells out, huffing and puffing as she did so. She raised both of her hands to give Shoyo a thumb up sign, smiling widely at him.
Shoyo nodded and gave Moya a tear filled grin of his own, giving her a thumbs up sign in return.
"Hinata? Who's that?" asks Tanaka, coming over to clamp his hand over Shoyo's shoulder.
Shoyo smiled gently, "She is my twin sister."
This revelation shocked the whole Karasuno members…. "WHAT?!" wailed Nishinoya, "Why didn't you tell us you have a twin sister and a cute one to boot?" all the while shaking Shoyo.
The smile disappeared from Shoyo's face in an instant, his aura suddenly cold and freezing. His eyes suddenly turned shuttered. "I don't want to talk about it." Shoyo replied his tone frosty and distant, shrugging off Tanaka's hand and walking to the court, all the while stretching his neck and arms. Shoyo tied all of his hair together and took a deep breath. He smiled with an eye smile but his eyes is really creeping the Karasuno team out. His aura suddenly became cold and the steps that he took suddenly became lighter and noiseless; as if he suddenly became invincible, like he developed another personality.
This action confused and scared some of the members who were used to Shoyo's sunny disposition. Oikawa, who was looking at Karasuno's team after hearing the shout, felt a tingling of fear ran down his spine. He broke out in cold sweat after seeing Shoyo's unexpected change of behavior. "Iwa-chan, let's be careful around Shrimpy-chan. I don't like this change and what is this misdirection I am hearing about?" turning to face Iwaizumi, who was also looking at Karasuno. "I know, Shittykawa, I felt it too. Better be more careful with our plays."
"Beep!" came the referee's whistle.
All the volleyball members slowly went to their positions. "Kageyama, when you will toss to me, don't look for me. Just toss it to the best position possible and I will be there." Said Shoyo, still with his eye smile, slowly walking to his position. "What did you say boke?" said Kageyama angrily, ready to give Shoyo a tongue lashing. (Wait, that doesn't right, LOL) "Please." Said Shoyo, looking at Kageyama seriously; "Trust in my jump. I will not fail." "Hmph. Fine, boke." Said Kageyama, also stretching his arms in preparation for the game.
A few minutes later:
Thunk! Tap! Tap! As the ball sailed pass Seijoh's court. The Seijoh team just looked on with confusion because they didn't know who spiked the ball into their side so effortlessly. The Karasuno team also looked on with confusion. There were no signals or any plan beforehand as to who will spike the ball to the other side and Kageyama just tossed the ball into the air and suddenly like whoosh! The ball was already in Seijoh's side.
They all just stared at Shoyo who was just going down from the jump, landing noiselessly. "WOW!" roars the crowd, stunned at the sudden spike. One more point and Karasuno wins the game. "Oh, Great King san, I thought you were going to stop me?" said Shoyo chillingly, still with his eye smile on. Oikawa and Iwaizumi broke out in goose bumps. It's like there's another Shoyo inside of Shoyo's body. "One more point and it's our game. What will you do, Great King san?" said Shoyo, still with his eye smile on.
"You little…" said Oikawa menacingly, cracking his knuckles. "Shittykawa, focus." Said Iwaizumi, a vein popping on his forehead.
*Beep!* came the referee's whistle.
Both teams played their hearts out until, Hinata yells out, "Give it to me!" and suddenly slams the ball down Siejoh's court. Tap, tap, the ball went.
Karasuno wins the game! They were able to get their revenge from the last time! Cheers and triumphant shouts were heard throughout the gym. After both sides greeted the people in the stands, the Karasuno team had a huddle where they had a rousing cheer of victory. Hinata immediately separated himself from the team and ran to Moya who was patiently waiting for him.
"Moya!" cries Hinata, tears pouring out of his eyes; knelt before her and holding her hands. "When did you wake up?" "I woke up yesterday, Oni-chan. But I was conscious the whole time, just couldn't move my body but ever since I heard that you are having the game against Seijoh, I tried to wake up and move my body, little by little." Said Moya quietly.
"I'm so sorry Moya, because of me, you've…" Hinata cries some more and lays his head on Moya's lap like a child. "It's okay, Oni-chan, if I had to do this over again, I would always choose to save you Oni-chan, because I love you and you're my light. So don't cry anymore and introduce me to your teammates." Said Moya, gently wiping HInata's tears away.
Hinata nodded, stood up and turned to face the rest of the team who gathered behind them.
