Chapter 1: What a day!
"ITTAAAIIIII!!!!"
A self proclaimed Tensai, Sakuragi Hanamichi found a new lump on his fiery red head courtesy of none other than Akagi Takenori, his basketball captain.
"What was that punch for, Gori?!" He demandingly asked his fuming captain.
"What?! You're asking me what?!" Akagi growled at Sakuragi. "You got us late in school! That's why!"
Woah! Hold on a minute there! Akagi late?! What's going on? Let's have a little rewind. Now that morning…
"Nyahahahaha!!! The Tensai is now here Gori! Ready for our shooting practice!" Sakuragi laughed his way towards the court near Akagi's place for a short morning training.
"Feh. Shut-up will you. You'll wake the whole neighbourhood." Akagi threw the ball at his direction. "Take note of the time Sakuragi, we only have two hours before school starts."
"The Tensai takes notice of everything Gori! Nyahahaha – ooofff!"
"Tensai huh?!" Akagi just shook his head at Sakuragi as the ball hit him straight in the face.
After two hours of bashing, ball shooting and shouting at each other.
"What time is it, Sakuragi?" Akagi asked as he picked up his water container.
"Huh? Time?"
"The time, Sakuragi…" Akagi said, vein popping out of his head.
"Oh! On the Tensai's watch it is already… aaaaaahhhh!!! Gori!!! We're late!!!!"
Then Sakuragi zoomed past Akagi, leaving him coughing up on his dusts.
Now the two found themselves in the Principal's waiting room.
"I told you to watch the time, Sakuragi." Akagi hissed while restraining himself from hitting Sakuragi again.
"But it was your idea to practice, Gori!" Sakuragi countered while poking Akagi.
"Stop poking me!" Akagi said losing all control and raised his fist, ready to again bash Sakuragi when…
"Akagi Takenori!" The Principal showed up in front of them eyeing both of them.
"In my office, NOW!"
At the Ryonan district...
"Sendoh!!! Open this door now!!!" Koshino Hiroaki, a sophomore student at Ryonan high banged his fist on his bestfriend's door. "C'mon! Wake up and open this door!!!"
"Dear, use this." Sendoh Akira's mom handed Koshino a key. "This will save us the trouble. And good luck on waking up Akira, Koshino."
So Sendoh's mom left Koshino to play mother hen on his still asleep friend. Koshino used the key to open the door and found a body sleeping soundly beneath the basketball printed blanket, a spiked up hair was the only thing that can be seen.
Lots of alarm clock adorned the said room, some of which are still ringing by the way but seems not doing a good job on waking up Ryonan's ace. Koshino turned off the alarm clocks and noticed the time.
"Shit Sendoh!!! Wake the hell up!!!" Koshino frantically shook the slumbering boy. "We only have thirty more minutes before school starts!"
"hookay." The voice said beneath the covers. "Just five more minutes, mom." Sendoh added burying himself deeper in the blanket
"We don't have five more minutes sleeping beauty!!!" Angrily, Koshino yanked the covers and Sendoh ended up cuddling his room floor. "Now get up!"
"Itai!" Sendoh massaging his buttom with his left hand, leaving his right hand to rub his sleepy eyes.
"Sendoh…" growled Koshino.
Realizing that someone is in his room, that that someone is the one responsible for him being in the floor and that someone also happens to be none other than his ever so caring friend Koshino.
"Oh Hiro-kun! Nice of you drop by!" Sendoh graced him with his trademark smile.
Balling up his fist in irritation, "Don't you Hiro-kun me, Akira!" Koshino threw him his towel and school clothes. "Take a shower and be ready for school!!!" He shouted, leaving Sendoh to hear some ringing in his ears for a while.
"Okay already!" Sendoh raised both hands to cover his poor ears. So he goes straight to the bathroom and look at Koshino. "By the way Hiro-kun, did you make me breakfast?"
Koshino threw a basketball on Sendoh's direction but hit the bathroom's door instead.
"Akira!!!"
Minutes before the bell rings in Ryonan High School, two figures can be seen sprinting up to reach the school in time. But alas! Luck was not on their side, the bell rung even before these two boys can reach the school gates.
Having no more choice, Koshino and Sendoh slowly crept up to their rooms as quietly as they can, hoping not to get caught by their teacher. Fortunately as they walked through the school hallways, not a single teacher can be seen, unfortunately, the two unknowing boys had their principal at their back since they arrived.
"So… what do we have here?"
"Eep!" Sendoh and Koshino immediately freeze.
"In my office. Now!"
Back in Shohoku High School, in the room of year 2 class 1…
"… Helladic people were the first recorded Indo-European to inhabit Greece. They arrived around 2200 B.C. as Palaeolithic people. Later they became Neolithic as they developed ways to make their own food through agriculture, horticulture, and herding. They later…."
*Scribble*scribble*scribble*
"Psst… Aya-chan."
"Huh?" Ayako looked up from her notes and saw Shohoku's point guard, Miyagi Ryota, threw a piece of crumpled paper on her desk. The team manageress sighed as she opened the piece of paper. "Mattaku…"
"Ryota." Ayako whispered to get Miyagi's attention.
The young lad hopefully looked at her with pink, heart shaped eyes.
*WHACK*
A paper fan that miraculously appeared and came contact with his head was the answer Miyagi got.
"Ayako! How many times have I been telling you to stop slapping Miyagi's head with that fan of yours!" The history teacher loomed before Ayako and Miyagi. "Is this now the cause of this little behaviour?" He asked while waving a crumpled piece of paper in the air.
"Wait sensei! It's just that -- " Miyagi reasoned as the teacher read the said note.
"Now let see here… *ahem* My ever dearest, blooming flower Aya-chan, You are looking very stunning this morning. Just a single glimpse at your beauty and seeing that angelic smile that paints your divine face makes me feel heaven on earth. Making me forget all my troubles, instead I experience a feeling of pure bliss everytime I am by your side. How I worship even the ground you walk on. Oh my Aya-chan, when will you ever give me the pleasure of going out with you…? Love and forever devoted to you, Miyagi Ryota."
When the teacher finished reading, snickers can be heard from every direction inside the class.
"Eep!" Both Miyagi and Ayako finding the floor very much interesting by now.
"Wasn't that sweet ne, Ayako?" Ayako's seatmate nudged the very tomato faced Ayako.
"How romantic of you Miyagi-kun!" said the other girl behind Ayako.
"Oi! Miyagi!" His seatmate looked at him. "Was it yesterday you said in your letter, 'Miyagi Ryota, the man who's heart you've stolen."
"No Man! That was the day before yesterday! Yesterday's was, 'The man willing to die loving you, Miyagi Ryota.' Right Miyagi-kun?" came from the back of the class.
"Miyagi…" The teacher was shaking his head while putting a consoling hand on the shrinking Miyagi's shoulder. "When will you stop this fantasy of yours?" Came the pitying voice of the sensei, and then facing Ayako. "Ayako dear. When will you answer this pleading boy's wish? Will you forever whack his head as an answer?" The teacher could only sigh at his two students. Having enough of this never-ending note passing and head whacking, "I give up on you two, go to the Principal's office now."
*Rrriiiinnggg*
Then came the ringing of the bell, signalling everyone that it is already lunchtime.
"Sekai ga owaru made wa…" The happy singing voice of our ex-gangster Mitsui Hisashi was heard by everyone he passes by as he walks toward the usual place where he hangs out with his friends during this hour of the day. "Hanareru koto mo nai…."
"Oi, Micchan! Over here!" Nori waved at his friend.
"Hey, where are the others?"
"At the back of the school grounds. But I think we shouldn't go there." Nori hesitantly said at Mitsui.
"And why not?" Mitsui raised an eyebrow then went straight at the said place.
"Matte, Micchan!"
Upon entering the back area Mitsui could smell something in the air.
"Oi, what's that smell?" Then when he got to see what his other friends are up to he rushed towards them.
"Stop that now!" Mitsui took a hold of the cigarette that is in his friend's mouth. "Don't you guys know that when you smoke you kill 7 minutes of your life!?" He angrily said while waving the cigarette in his finger in front of them.
"Eh?"
"Umm… Since when did you care about us smoking, Micchan?" Mitsui's smoking friend asked dumbfounded.
"Since I've changed!" Mitsui said proudly. "So don't you ever smoke again! You hear?" He said while pointing at the cigarette at them.
"Mr. Mitsui Hisashi!!!"
"Huh?!" Mitsui turned around to find a teacher standing just a few meters away from him, arms crossed so was his face.
"Oh! Konnichiwa sensei!" Mitsui bowed.
"Ahem!" The teacher looked furiously at the object between Mitsui's fingers.
Noticing the hard stare that his teacher is giving his hand, "Oh this! Sensei this is not what it looks like." Then turning around to his friends. "This cigarette belongs to – what the?! Where'd they go!?" The only thing Mitsui saw was the falling of leaves coming from a gust of wind.
"What do you take me for, Mitsui? A fool?" The teacher's voice now reached a very dangerous level.
"Anou… demo… umm…" Mitsui stuttered looking like a little child.
"No buts young man! To the Principal's office NOW!!!"
At the same time at Ryonan High School's ground…
"Man! Uozumi! I'm full! And I just ate two sets of lunch! And you ate four of them!!!" Ryonan's basketball team's vice captain Ikegami Ryoji said as he massages his bursting tummy. "You sure you cooked those? By the way, thanks again! Those were deeliish!"
"Yes, Ikegami. I'm the one who prepared those! Glad you like them!" The team's captain Uozumi Jun proudly stated as he seated himself beneath an oak tree.
Ikegami only smiled and seated himself beside the big guy. He knows his friend's passion for cooking. Who would've thought that their ape like captain could create such superb and scrumptious cuisines?
Ikegami's eyes wandered through his surrounding and landed on a group of boys that looks like ready to start trouble anytime soon. As he's about to tell Uozumi, he heard a familiar voice, shouting.
"Kono Yarooouuu!!!"
Both of them bolted upright and headed towards the starting brawl.
"Yamero, Fukuda!" Ikegami intervened between Fukuda Kicho, Ryonan's power forward, and another student.
Seeing fifteen out of three students, Uozumi knows they are outnumbered. He tried his best to pry off some of the student's punches and kicks towards him, Fukuda and Ikegami. He doesn't even know why Fukuda's fighting these guys in the first place.
"Oi! Stop it! Let's go Fukuda!" Uozumi shouted.
"No, Uozumi-san. They insulted the basketball team! If the team's insulted then I'm also insulted!" Fukuda angrily freed himself from Ikegami's strong hold and punched the guy nearest to him. "Baka yarou!!!"
Normally, Uozumi's a peaceful guy but insult one of his love, (basketball and cooking) in this case basketball, then you just have written your death wish.
"They what?!" growled Uozumi and a vein can be seen popping out of his forehead.
"Hold on now, Uozumi." Said Ikegami, patiently trying to calm down a furious Uozumi.
"The basketball team's bunch of sissies!" one of the cheeky guys said.
"That's it! Let's get them!" Upon hearing that taunt, Ikegami lost it.
Okay, so Ikegami's not so patient after all. And what a stimulant a little insult to the basketball club can do to Uozumi, Fukuda and Ikegami. They defeated the group in an instant and started rejoicing, shouting "Oretachi wa tsuyoi!" (We are strong)
But their merriment halted when a booming voice erupted behind the dancing trio.
"What's the meaning of this Uozumi? Ikegami? Fukuda?" Ryonan High's Principal eyed each of them and a pile of beaten, black and blue students.
"Konnichi wa, Sensei!" Ikegami cheerily and respectfully bowed. "We beat them up!" he added while smiling from ear to ear.
"Yes, sensei! You should've been here a while ago. I knocked them out senseless!" Uozumi triumphantly said.
"They insulted us and we bea ---" Fukuda suddenly stopped in his mid sentence when a realization hit him. /oh no…/ He just stared hopelessly at his other two companions and principal.
"In my office now!!!" The principal again boomed, almost shattering every window in the district.
Hanagata Toru, Shoyo basketball club's vice-captain and center, glanced down to his watch and found out that lunch is almost over. /sigh/
"Oi Fujima we better head for class, the bell will ring any moment now."
"Huh?" Fujima Kenji, Shoyo's basketball team's captain, looked up from his notebook. "Now? What time is it?"
"We only have less than five minutes."
"Already?" Fujima sighed. "Anyway, let's go."
As they walk towards their rooms, two tall figures can be seen running towards them.
"Fujima! Hanagata!"
"Huh? what's wrong, Hasegawa?" Hanagata faced the breathless shooting guard.
"Here! Just take these." When that said, Hasegawa zoomed in the direction of his classroom.
"Also these Fujima, Ja!" Ito didn't wait for Fujima's response as he was also hurrying to his room.
Hanagata and Fujima just took the stuffs handed to them not even bothering to know what are those, because two teachers can be seen headed at their direction, angrily.
"Hanagata, catch you later okay!" Fujima waved goodbye at his friend as he makes his way to his classroom, afraid that he might be caught late and loitering in the halls.
As he was safely seated at his seat, the bell rang and his teacher burst in the room, glaring at him. /Uh oh! I'm not late now am I? I beat the bell right?/ Hanagata wondered to himself fearing that his flawless tardy records will soon be broken.
"Hanagata Toru!"
All eyes stared at the back of the room where Hanagata is seated.
"Yes, *gulp* Sensei?"
"The Principal would love to see you now and kindly bring your things with you." The teacher's glared intensified.
Inside Shoyo High School's Principal's office, Hanagata was surprised on who greeted him as he entered.
"Hey there, Hanagata. I didn't expect to see you again so soon." Fujima said as he sulked deeper on his chair.
"What are you doing here Fujima? And why are we here for?"
Fujima just shrugged and the Principal answered his questions.
Hanagata and Fujima both stood up to acknowledge the Principal's presence.
"It's because of those things, boys. Give them to me now." He ordered.
"Huh?"
"What things?" a confused Fujima asked.
"Don't play coy with me young man. Those things! Hand them to me this instant!"
Hanagata and Fujima looked to where the Principal's pointing and it leads to what seemed to be a magazine that peeked out of Hanagata's bag.
"Oh these! Here you go sir." Fujima said as he handed what the principal asked.
"And here's the rest, sir." Hanagata did the same.
/Wonder what the Principal wants to do with Hasegawa and Ito's stuffs?/ Both boys wondered.
"Didn't you know that these magazines aren't allowed inside the school's premises?" The Principal angrily said, as he holds up three out of the ten Playboy Magazines infront of the two.
*Thud*
Needless to say, Hanagata and Fuijma fainted.
*thud*
*CRACK*
That was the tenth chalk the math teacher broke since the start of the afternoon classes at Shohoku High school.
*Snore*
That is the soft snoring of Rukawa Kaede and it can be heard echoing across the room.
*CRACK*
Now that is the sound of the eleventh chalk breaking out of the teacher's frustration.
*THUMP*
Then a different sound was heard in the class. Everyone turned to source of that crash and found Shohoku's super Rookie on the floor, it seems like he was not all bothered by the fall because the former is still sound asleep.
*Snore*
Came the all too familiar sound again from the sleeping lad.
*CRACK*CRACK* and followed by another *CRACK*
Losing his temper over the boy, the teacher approached the dead to the world figure of Rukawa. And all whose life wants to be spared, stepped a whole three meters away from the two.
*Stomp* *snore* *stomp* *snore* *stomp*
Then all that can be heard was the stomping of the teacher's foot and Rukawa's soft snores.
"RUKAWA KAEDE!!!" bellowed our dear soon to be insane teacher.
*Snore* "hn…" *blink*blink*
"I SAID RUKAWA KAEDE! WAKE UP!
A grumpy voice came out from the sleepy Rukawa. "No one disturbs my sleep." then he swung his hand ready to punch the teacher.
But before he's fist came in contact with the sensei's face …
*thwack*
Came the teacher's meter stick down on Rukawa's butt. Yes, his butt.
"TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE! NOW!"
*Yawn*
Aida Hikoichi yawned as he waits patiently for the bell to ring, indicating the end of his English class that afternoon at Ryonan High School.
*diiiing*dong*
"Okay, please place your notebooks at my desk before you go. I will check these as part of your requirements." The teacher said as he walks to his table.
Hikoichi zooms up to the teacher's table and placed his notebook then was out of the room in a second.
As Hikoichi made his way towards his next class, which is Laboratory, he saw his Sempais namely Koshino and Sendoh passing through the hallway, both talking at each other. But it looks more like Sendoh talking and Koshino grumbling. Deciding to follow his instincts he immediately took his 'trusty pen and notebook' to do some checking again. /Where is that notebook???/ Hikoichi grumbled.
Getting irritated that he might lose sight of his Sempais he hurriedly took all his bag contents and threw them on the floor to look for his 'precious' notebook. Fear overcomes his face as he saw his English notebook instead of his 'notebook.'
/Oh… no!!!/ He hastily sped up back to his English class to retrieve his 'notebook' hoping that the teacher haven't yet read it's contents. /Oh no! Oh no! Oh! No! It holds the secrets of the club and some opinions about the teachers! I'm a dead duck if sensei reads that!/
As he opened the door to his class, Hikoichi found his teacher, to his horror, reading his 'notebook.'
"I presume, you are looking for this?" The teacher said not looking up from the 'notebook.' "hhmm.. Interesting… so I'm boring as a mule ne? Oh and Sendoh said that?"
Hikoichi found the floor very much interesting right now.
"Why don't we take a visit to the Principal's office and there you could do a lot of note taking." The teacher's eyes are now burning holes at Hikoichi' head. "I'm sure the Principal would love to read Sendoh and Koshino's opinion about him. Not to mention Uozumi and Ikegami's hatred at the chemistry teacher!"
/Oh my! The Principal will surely kill me, but I think the team will decapitate me first!/
"ahh… an hour and a half more before the school ends." Kogure Kiminobu, the vice captain of Shohoku basketball club, sighed as he glanced at his wristwatch. He had finished his test already, only taking him thirty minutes of the used to be two-hour class. Knowing that students aren't allowed to leave the class until everyone's finished, he only did the next best thing he could do at that moment he reviewed all his answers.
"psst… Kogure! Psst!"
"Huh?" Kogure looked up from his papers to face his seatmate.
"Anou… what's the answer on the first question?" Came the whispering voice
Kogure's eyes widened at this. He is not used to giving out answers or cheating especially on test, and he isn't about to start now.
"What?"
"C'mon, please!" now his seatmate said this with a pout.
Kogure just turned his back on his pleading seatmate.
"Please Kogure, my parents will kill me if I didn't pass this one. Please!" now with some teary puppy doe eyes for effect.
Of course being the Kogure that we know he is, Megane-kun cannot turn down a pleading helpless guy (well, in his own very sympathetic opinion). He hesitantly looked fro and back to his seatmate and teacher. Making sure the teacher's not looking at their direction. /Okay, so scratch the thought that I will not give out answers, sigh… why am I to quote Sakuragi 'this good?'/ he mumbled to himself.
"Um… Okay look here." Kogure whispered to his seatmate as he set his papers clearly between them.
"Kogure Kiminobu! What is the meaning of this?"
Curse the sixth sense of the teachers! Kogure's caught red-handedly letting his seatmate copy his all out paper, but to the teacher's view it was him who's copying his seatmate's work. Oh, and the said seatmate is now innocently looking and writing vigorously on his own paper.
"If the offense here is you being late, I could let it go, if it was you being a bully, I could also let it go. But cheating? Go to the principal's office now young man!"
Akagi only stared at the scene before him, to shock to move. Kogure being sent to the principal's office was too much for him to take.
Takatoh-sensei walked proudly with the Principal towards Kainan University, High school's gymnasium.
"I expect a lot from our team this year, Takatoh-sensei. And I would like to see how they're fairing in their practices."
"You will not be disappointed Sir. And I did not tell them that you are coming to visit them today at practice so you can see how the boys act naturally."
"Very well… Let's see."
As Takatoh opened the gymnasium door a loud sound welcomed them.
*Punch*
"ITTAAIII! Maki-san!!!" wailed Kiyota Nobunaga, a freshman, while crouching on the floor while rubbing his newly formed lump.
"I told you to concentrate on your game!" Maki Shinichi, captain of the basketball club, scolded the rookie. "Now stop thinking on how to beat Rukawa and start improving your skills!"
"Demo…"
Maki was again planning on bashing the loudmouth power forward but a demanding voice made him stop.
"What is going on in here?" The Principal boomed. "I thought this is the basketball practice and not the wrestling's?" he added while looking dangerously at Maki and Kiyota.
Takatoh could only gulp as a defense.
"You two, follow me in my office now!" Then turning his attention to Takatoh. "Come with us sensei, we have a lot to discuss about control and temper."
So the three followed the Principal to his office, passing the basketball team's locker room on their way.
*BANG*
*Thud*
The locker room door suddenly burst wide open, revealing a rushing shooting guard, Jin Soichiro, and unfortunately knocking the Principal down real hard.
"Kuso! I'm late! I'm late! I'm… late…?" Jin stopped to look at a bewildered Maki, a frightened Kiyota and a very white coach. "Anou… what are you guys doing here? I'm not late am I?"
"Ji… Jin-san…" Kiyota stuttered.
Before Kiyota could add anything more, the Principal stood up with the help of Takatoh-sensei.
"You, Jin Soichiro! Join us in my room! NOW!"
All three students almost jumped back at the terror in the voice of the Principal. Without anymore pursuing the trio sped up to the said office, marching like soldiers heading for their death.
"Oi! Matte! Wait for us!" Coach Takatoh yelled at his players as he alone was tasked to help the dazed Principal.
*Rrriiiinnggg*
So there's the bell that marked the end of school and the beginning of club meetings and practices at Shohoku High School. Unfortunately for our dear basketball club, their main players and manageress are out of the action at the moment.
"What?!" Yasuda stared unbelievingly at Ishii and Shiozaki.
"Yes, you heard us right, Yasuda-kun. They're all in detention right now." Said Shiozaki.
"You mean even Ayako and Akagi-san were sent to detention?"
"Oh and don't forget Kogure-san, he's also in detention." Added Ishii
Yasuda stared dumbfounded at the quiet and empty gym as he shudders. /Kogure-san is in detention? Oh my, the world is ending!/
Then the opening of the gymnasium's door was heard revealing confused and surprised Kuwata.
"Woah, am I too early?"
"No, Kuwata, Kogure-san is just in detention, nothing to worry about." A delirious Yasuda answered.
"What?!"
Inside Shohoku's Detention room, we can see the shock faces of Ayako, Mitsui and Miyagi as Akagi entered with Sakuragi in tow.
"Hold on a minute here!" coming out of his reverie, Miyagi asked. "What are you doing here, Akagi?
"Ask this baka!" Akagi growled as he took his seat infront near the windows.
"Sakuragi Hanamichi, how did you accomplish the impossible of all impossible?" Mitsui asked, amused.
"Eh?"
"How'd you get Akagi in detention?" Ayako explained.
"Oh that!" Sakuragi said then he laughed his trademark laugh. "Nyahahahaa!!! Ore wa Tensai! You're asking the Tensai here, Ayako-san! Nothing is impossible for the Tensai!"
"Do'ahou!" came the cold voice from the door.
"Rukawa!" Sakuragi's attention was easily diverted to the pale boy. "Teme!"
"Urusai Hanamichi!" Miyagi hissed at Sakuragi then turning at Rukawa he asked. "So what are you in for Rukawa?"
Rukawa ignored Miyagi and went straight to the backseat, set his face down the table and of course sleep.
"I shouldn't have asked." Miyagi sighed.
So minutes passed without having much fuss inside the room except for some snores coming from our resident super rookie, irritating complaints from the self-proclaimed Tensai, grumbles from ape looking captain and a few whacks here and there courtesy of Ayako and Miyagi. Then the so-called "peace" inside the room was interrupted as Mitsui asked a question to no one in particular.
"I wonder how's Kogure handling the practice?"
"Must be peaceful there..." Miyagi answered.
"I wouldn't say that…" Akagi said in a small voice looking sternly at the opening door.
"errm.. Hi guys…" Said the newcomer.
All eyes widened and jaws dropped to the ground for they saw the one who is the least likely to be in this school's prisoner ward. Even Rukawa woke up from his slumber.
"Kogure-san!"
"Oi! Megane-kun! What took you so long?" Sakuragi walked up to his senior. "I'm sure you're here to take the Tensai out of his misery."
"Sakuragi" Kogure meekly said. "I was sent to detention."
"Yes, I'm sure you are sent here to take us out right?" said Mitsui not really catching on what the brown haired boy meant.
"Mitsui, I was SENT to detention." Kogure said, emphasizing on the word sent.
Now catching on what Kogure really meant, Mitsui was needless to say, flabbergasted.
*Silence…*
*Chirp*chirp* an eerie silence crept up in the whole room as the understanding hit them.
"Anou, Kogure…" Akagi broke the stiffness of the place. "I thought the principal would let you go."
"Apparently not Akagi." Kogure said as he bowed down his head. "He said no matter how good I am, and even if this is only my first offense for the past three years, an offense is still an offense. And mine just happened to be a major offense. Beside, the principal was kind of in a really bad mood because of something."
"I have a hunch for the principal's bad mood though…" Akagi said looking thoughtful to Mitsui and the rest.
"Anyways, so what's your offense, Sempai?" Ayako asked. "I'm sure is not that of a major offense as you mentioned."
"I'm afraid it is Ayako."
"So what is it?" Miyagi asked getting a little impatient and very curious.
"Cheating."
"WHAT?!" Mitsui, Miyagi, Ayako and Sakuragi all shouted at the same time.
And Rukawa paled, yep, got paler than his usual.
Never in their wildest dream that their own very honest, good as a saint Kogure Kiminobu commit such an act and it's cheating! Of course it will be very normal if this comes from the likes of Mitsui, Miyagi and Sakuragi. (Rukawa's too sleepy to cheat) But Kogure? The world really is coming to an end.
So for the rest of the remaining detention hours, the boys and a girl stayed very quiet pondering on the thought that even a saint can cheat.
Silence never seemed to stay too long in Shohoku High as the room again opened revealing every delinquent student's nightmare, the Principal.
"Ne… Hirko-kun!" Sendoh wailed infront of his upset friend. "We'll only be here for an hour and a half or so…"
"Sendoh?"
"Yes, Hiro-kun?"
"Shut up!" Koshino snapped as he took his seat inside Ryonan's detention room.
Sendoh really knows how to imitate a blowfish as he tries to find the words to soothe Koshino.
"Sendoh! I can feel it now! Taoka-sensei will certainly cream our asses if we miss practice! And surely we will because of your laziness, we are in detention!" Koshino practically drew a crack at the room's window with his bellowing voice.
"Ma maa… it ain't so bad. C'mon think about it! Free from Taoka-sensei's devil routine as practice!"
Koshino is ready to bash his spiked-haired bestfriend with a chair right now however their captain entered the room and that halted Koshino from completely decapitating Ryonan's ace.
"Uozumi-san?" Sendoh confusingly asked. "How come you're here?"
Then Ikegami entered from behind the towering Uozumi.
"Hey, Sendoh, Koshino." Ikegami gruffly acknowledge his two juniors and went straight to one of the available chairs.
"Ikegami-san, what happened?" asked Koshino.
"Ask him!"
"Who?"
Another shadow emerged at the back of Uozumi.
"Fukuda?!" Exclaimed Sendoh and Koshino simultaneously.
Seeing Fukuda is not about to answer Sendoh and Koshino anytime soon, Uozumi decided to speak up. "Long story cut short. We're in a brawl." He sighed then asked. "So how about you two?"
"Let me guess… Sendoh's late right?" Ikegami said then looked at Koshino questioningly. "And you got dragged to his tardiness?"
Koshino only rolled his eyes as Sendoh again did a very good imitation of a blowlfish. "Anou… hehehe… you could say that." He answered while absentmindedly scratching the back of his head.
"Wonder what Taoka-sensei's doing right now?" Fukuda suddenly voiced out to none in particular.
"Oh! He's very mad and on the brink of insanity right now and I can assure you that Fukuda-san." All of a sudden a newcomer answered.
"Hikoichi!?"
"ehehehe… Hi sempais…" Hikoichi sheepishly greeted them.
"Don't tell me you followed us here to get some 'notes' huh?" Sendoh accused.
"The opposite actually, Sendoh-san. It was my 'notes' that got me here…" a very embarrassed Hikoichi told them. "I sorta got careless and passed the wrong notebook to the teacher."
"I told you to stop taking notes too seriously. And now it only got you in this mess!" reprimanded Sendoh, then turning to Koshino, "Lucky us, Hiro-kun. We'll only be here for a while, we're only late as for these four, well… good luck to them."
"You are so wrong, Sendoh Akira."
Looks like people do like pop out at Ryonan High because now another person entered the room. "You won't be going anywhere and you can thank Aida Hikoichi for that." Smiled the Principal as he opened Hikoichi's 'notebook' infront of them.
"The Principal's an old fart – Sendoh Akira, I second that – Koshino Hiroaki." Looking back at Sendoh and Koshino. "Now let's see what this old fart can do ne?"
Koshino would very much like to commit suicide but only after he murders Hikoichi who by now is trying to be one with the floor as Sendoh tries to kill him with his death glare.
Usually by this time of the day, most of the Shoyo High school students are watching the basketball team practice but not today. They sort of found the detention room a bit more interesting.
"Wow! They really are in detention!" One female said as she pushed her way amongst crowd gathering to see two of Shoyo's hottest guys through a small door window.
"Yeah! You are not kidding."
"I told you so! I saw those two walking to this room looking like a prisoners in death row."
"I wish I'm in detention right now…" sighed some girls.
"What do you think happened to them? But even though Fujima's looking deathly pale he's still gorgeous!"
"Nah! Hanagata can outshine him anytime!"
"Shh! Quit it! The Principal's coming this way!"
So half of the population (mostly females) of Shoyo immediately dispersed as the sight of the Principal.
"Okay, Hanagata. Fujima." The Principal called their attention as he closed the door behind him. "Now what shall we do about this…"
"Discipline! Self-control! Awareness!" Kainan High school Principal bellowed inside his room. "I think these three traits should be practice by every student here especially on your club!" He then glared at Kainan's top basketball players. "You three are lucky, if I caught you, Maki, punching your junior in the morning, you probably are in detention right now." Then averting his gaze to Kiyota, "And you, cheeky freshman, should be concentrating and not making a circus out of the team's practice!" and lastly he looked at a sheepish looking Jin. "And let's not forget you!" the principal only massages his now bandaged head.
After some deafening silence, the principal again spoke up. "I know now what to do with you. To be able to developed traits of self-control, discipline and such…"
"…. I will be sending all of you to the local Catholic middle school for the whole semester break." Ryonan's principal sternly said. "This will be part of your requirement so you all are obliged to go. Take note, this is not a punishment but more likely for you to experience…"
"… the life of a teacher." Shohoku's principal continued not at all bothered by the confused faces of the players. "Now, now question's later. I know this will be hard and unusually different because for all of you will teach, yes teach, as in be a teacher but…"
"… as PRIESTS." Shoyo's principal could only gape as the two students again fainted.
