                With huge smiles on their faces, they cried out in unison, "Let the game begin!"

                They had been looking forward to this.  A week-long effort of going to advance classes in preparation for university had been really grueling.  A practice game with Ryonan would be just the ticket to relieve their tension.  What a sweet reward it would be.

                Now, the entire roster of Ryonan's basketball team could be seen.   Sendoh, Koshino, Fukuda, Ikegami, Uekusa, even Hikoichi.

                Wait a minute.

                Uozumi's nowhere to be seen!

                Sakuragi immediately interrogated Hikoichi about Uozumi's whereabouts.  Hikoichi was about to answer when Uozumi came rushing in.  He was already sweaty even before the game began.

                Taoka-sensei immediately flared up.  "Oi Uozumi!  Where have you been!  You're damn late!"

                "Gomen, Taoka-sensei… It's just that…"

                "Well, what is it?  Spill!", the angry coach demanded.

                "I had to go to the bathroom", he replied, smiling sheepishly and held up a V-sign.

                Everybody sweatdropped.
