The Shohoku Basketball team were still practicing till noon inside the gym.
Ayako, who's currently the main manager of the club right now, were working
out about the basics with some freshmen on the edge a side. Meanwhile,
Miyagi, the captain, is having a quick interview with Rukawa, who's playing
the role of Kawaii Mayu, the newcomer of the team.
Miyagi : So, Kawaii, have you ever played basketball?
Rukawa : Yeah.
Miyagi : What position do you play?
Rukawa : …almost any. Forward, perhaps…
Miyagi : E… Did you ever join a club back then? I mean, at your junior or your at your first year during highschool?
Rukawa : Uh… *sweat* No.
Miyagi : (thinking) That's strange, a guy as tall as him who have the potential to be a great player didn't join the team even once. Anyway, this guy reminds me of that Ryonan's ace… His face, his figure, it's similar to him…
Rukawa : Umm…
Miyagi : *shrugs* I guess I'll have to see your skills first. And if you're good enough, I might put you in the starting five team. *walks into the center of the court, where Mitsui is standing at*
Mitsui : So, Miyagi… What did you found out about that mysterious guy?
Miyagi : Not much… He's quite suspicious, though… Well, we'll just see how skillful he is.
Everybody stopped their action and gathered around their captain.
Miyagi : We're gonna have a little practice game, I'll divide the team to two equally. Mitsui, you'll be on the blue team, me on the red. Sakuragi, join me, Rukawa join Mitsui. *turns to Rukawa* Kawaii Mayu, you'll join the red team.
Rukawa : Understood *rushes to join his senior, Mitsui, and ran towards Sendoh*
Sakuragi : Hey, Kawaii… I don't know about you playing basketball, but be warned, nobody can defeat the tensai!!!
Rukawa : Do'aho…
Mitsui : Maa… He sounds like Rukawa… I hope he plays like Rukawa too… *looks at Sendoh, who's busy putting on his temporary red uniform*
Sendoh : *gives a confused look* Hmm???
Rukawa : (under his breath) Yare yare…
Miyagi selected his teammate and his opponent carefully. He tried to divide the team into equal power. Well, he didn't know that Rukawa (Kawaii) is a devil in offense. Just imagine when you join Rukawa and Sendoh in a team, that team will be invincible. Red team will have difficulties in handling his opponent, since Sakuragi has a low quality in defense.
Miyagi got the ball, he was the playmaker of his team. He caught the ball in his hand and dribbled it carefully.
Miyagi : (in his head) I'll guard Kawaii…
Ayako : (from the bench) Go, Ryota!
He dribbled the ball and eluded from Yosuke, one of the rookies, and made his way into the inside. Mitsui stood before him and stopped his speedy offense. His tight defense stopped his action, and he fell into a fix. The edge of his eyes caught the figure of Sakuragi, running towards him. Without hesitating, he quickly passed the ball to the red-head.
Sakuragi : Nice choice, Ryochin! *looks at Rukawa, who's guarding him* You'll see, Kawaii, I am a genius by blood!
Kawaii : Come…
Sakuragi tried to escape his mark, but it seems that it'll be hard, even if he tried his best. He kept Sakuragi under his control, Sakuragi couldn't help himself. Finally, Sakuragi lose his concentration because of his risen temper, and Rukawa tagged the ball. It slipped out of his grab, and flew towards Sendoh, who had been guard by Yasuda.
Mitsui : Damn! That guy is good!
Sendoh caught the ball and easily slipped out of Yasu's guard. He dribbled the ball towards his hoop smoothly. Sakuragi ran behind him and caught up with him, but Sendoh put on a fake play and fooled the red-head. He passed the ball to Rukawa, who's running in a fast speed towards him. He held caught the ball and jumped high, swished the ball, and it went through the hoop. Rukawa had just dunked the ball, and that gives the blue team the first 2 scores of the match.
Meanwhile, the other members were stunned by Rukawa's fine play. Mitsui and Miyagi's jaw was on the floor, Sakuragi was pissed, freshmen and the others were shocked, their eyes turned wide. Even Haruko, who's helping Ayako with managing tasks turned all hearty and red.
Haruko : He's so cool… He's as cool as Rukawa-kun… *blush blush*
Ayako : Oh my, my… Don't tell me you just fell in love with him, and you're in love with two guys right now… *sweatdrop*
On the other hand, in the Ryonan highschool…
Hikoichi : Koshino-sempai, did you see Sendoh-san? He had been absent for a few days in a row…
Koshino : I know… *sigh* That guy…
Taoka : I couldn't believe he even abandons his responsibility as a captain!!!! (sounds very angered)
Hikoichi : Demo, Taoka-sensei, what if he is suffering a severe disease right now?
Koshino : Disease? Sendoh?! Nothing can stop him! Once he got himself a broken leg and he still jumps around, even with the crutches.
Fukuda : *stay still and quiet* Sendoh… Where the hell could he be?
Back at Shohoku high…
Miyagi : I can't believe we lost *takes a deep breath*
Sakuragi : The gap between the score is more than 10 points…
Miyagi : *still amused* That Kawaii… He's like a god… He plays… *pants for air* both offense and defense… like hell… he got a perfect… skill…
Mitsui : That Kawaii guy is gifted… We might become stronger than ever this summer…
Ayako : *hands the members some towels* Here you go…
Miyagi : *winks* Hey, thanks, Aya-chan…
Ayako : *smiles, but then face turns serious* I've seen his movement… His style, it's similar to Rukawa's…
Miyagi : And that tall figure… That face… Reminds me of Sendoh Akira…
Mitsui : Could it be? Could it be that he's twice as great as Sendoh and Rukawa?
Haruko : *joins the talk* To me it's more to say like the combination of Sendoh-san and Rukawa-kun…
Ayako : *gasps* That means… He'll be a tough guy to beat…
Sakuragi : Humph! What are you talking about?! I myself will swore an oath to beat that guy!!
Rukawa : *shrugs* Yare yare… He'll never learn…
Sendoh : *places his hand on Rukawa's shoulder* You did great…
Ayako : *gasps louder* And if he's placed with Rukawa… He'll be… Our team will be…
Miyagi : That's right, Aya-chan… This team will be the strongest team ever…
a.n : sorry for the lateness of the update! I got a few works to be done this week… So there won't be a lot of updates in this week. I'll do my best, though… And I promise as soon as this week is over, I'll finish the story as soon as possible!! Sumimasen, minna-saaan!!
