Part 2: Aratayashi

Mitsui peered at each female face that passed him by. He did not realize that so many people flew in to Japan before. Now he knew better. At least he can't lose the rest of his friends; Ayako and Ryota were wearing the Shohoku basketball jacket and Akagi could be easily found in the crowd because of his height, Kogure presumably somewhere near him.

He saw an attractive girl standing at one side, looking at a piece of paper. Is she her?
Just then a girl walked up to her and started talking rapidly. Disappointed, he turned away to find Akagi's other sister.


She sighed in relief. The girl earlier on had mistaken her for someone else and now had went away. Earlier on she had seen a fairly tall boy looking intently at her. His blue hair made him stand out among the others at the arrivals. She wanted to ask him for help, since he had a sincerely friendly and hopeful expression on his face, but as she looked around for him, she realized that he had disappeared.


Ryota couldn't believe it. Ever since he saw Ayako, he tried to find an excuse for them to be alone, but failed. She was looking around and when she saw him just gazing at her with a lovestrucked expression in his eyes, she hit him with her legendary fan.

"Itai! Why did you hit me, Aya-chan?" he said mournfully.

"Baka! Start finding Aratayashi-san now or I'll hit you again!"

"Why must you be so violent?..."


She pricked her ears. Did she hear her name? It sounded like it came from the two red jacket wearers. She walked towards them.

There it was. It wasn't her name again, but she heard 'Akagi', the new family name she would have to take up. But she sweatdropped at the sight which met her eyes.

A short girl with long, brown wavy hair was scolding a not-much taller guy, holding a really threatening-looking fan. The boy was just standing there meekly, listening to what she was saying and not talking back. Then suddenly they were dwarfed by a huge shadow. Looking up, she immediately took a step back.

Oh man, that guy is...giigantic.


He was wearing a white shirt and jeans, and the expression on his face wasn't very...nice.

She didn't pay the boy in the glasses that much attention, since she caught sight of Blue Hair. He was staring at her. She smiled uncertainly at him and he smiled back. Gathering her courage, she walked in between the huge person and the short guy.


Akagi was surprised when a girl with hazel coloured hair placed herself infront of him. He saw her taking a deep breathe before speaking.

"Sorry for interrupting you, but do you know who are the Akagi family? I'm supposed to meet one of them here but I can't find any of them."

Interrupting?

"Who are you?"

"My name is Aratayashi."
