The Other Brigade : Chapter III


"Nani?!!" Sakuragi Gundan exclaimed in shock. "Ryonan ?!"

"Don't tell me that the ace Sendoh from Ryonan does not have a huge following like Rukawa ?" Ru uttered.

"What do you mean by that ?!" Sa growled.

"We mean that why on earth would you form a 'club' whose idol is a player from the opposing school," Ka questioned.

Good point.. good point.. Matsui wondered.

"I heard from a very reliable source, that there is a Sendoh brigade over at Ryonan," Wa jeered at the Sakuragi brigade.

"Well excuse us for not worshipping Sendoh," Ku rolled her eyes. She flipped her two braided pigtails.

"We've always admired Sakuragi," Sa told the Rukawa brigade. "He's funny-"

Funny, yes. He has a cute sense of humor. Haruko nodded.

"He's a fantastic rebounder-"

Very true. All that practice he went through, he just has to be fantastic. Yohei agreed.

"And-"

The non-brigade people unconsciously leaned forward to hear the final words.

"He's really cute !" Sa squealed. The Sakuragi Gundan sweatdrops and laughed teasingly.

He is ! Fujii retorted silently as the blush crept up her cheeks.

"Well Rukawa Kaede is also cute !" Ka shot back.

He must be since half of the female population in Shohoku are crazy for him. Matsui snorted.
He is ! Haruko cheered silently.

"Not only that he is excellent at playing forward," Ka added.

Rukawa is a pro. He does help the team a lot in their attacks. Ookutsu thought as he nodded.

"But Rukawa does not have a sense of humor ! He's as cold as ice," Ku snapped.

Probably even colder.. Nomi snickered to himself.

"At least Rukawa does not make such a fool of himself like Sakuragi always do!" Wa shot back.

How true is that ?! Takamiya agreed profoundly. Heck, Sakuragi is his friend, but Takamiya (and the rest of the Sakuragi Gundan) love to take the mick out of Sakuragi.

"Sakuragi is so hot headed! I heard that he threatened our club !" Ru argued.

"Probably because your stupid club was the one who threatened him first !" Gi yelled.

"Out stupid club ?!! THAT'S TAKING IT TOO FAR !!" Ka screamed. "You were the ones who copied us !!"

"COPY ?!" Sa's voice automatically went in a higher pitch. "There is no such thing !"

"First you copied our idea, then you copied our cheer. WHAT MORE COULD YOU POSSIBLY COPY ?!" Ru shouted as her breathing went faster.

"COPY ?!! WE DID NOT COPY ANYTHING !!" Ku snorted. "This idea of forming a club exists for a long time !!"

"If anything, YOU were the ones who copied the Sendoh Brigade," Ra pointed out. "After all, they were formed first !"

The Rukawa brigade glared at the Sakuragi brigade. The Sakuragi brigade returned the favor.

"Copycats," Ru uttered.

"Idiots," Sa muttered.

"That it !" Both the 'team captain' stomped their foot angrily. "From now on-"

"THIS IS WAR !!"

The Rukawa brigade 'humph' as they turned to walk away. The Sakuragi brigade rolled their eyes and turned to walk the opposite way. The non-brigade people raised their eyes as they stood in silence for a moment.

"That was.." Haruko began as she broke the silence.

"Intense ?" Fujii asked.

"Idiotic ?" Matsui added sarcastically.

"I was going to say noisy," Haruko said sheepishly.

"Well, it was pretty conflicted," Yohei said. "But still, I can't help but think that…"

"That what ?" Haruko asked curiously.

"That Sakuragi brigade won !" Yohei laughed. "I win !"

"No way ! The Rukawa brigade won ! They fought better !" Takamiya argued.

"I don't think so. If given more time, I think that the Sakuragi brigade would surely jumped and attacked their opponents," Nomi said. "So pay up, Takamiya and Ookutsu !" Nomi handed out his empty hands.

"Dream on ! The Rukawa brigade put up a good, if not a better fight than the Sakuragi brigade ! We won ! You'd better pay or else that will be added up to your other debts," Ookutsu said as he pointed that fact out.

"Well, we'll let Haruko decide," Takamiya concluded. The Sakuragi Gundan turned to look at Haruko.

Haruko's eyes widen and she sighed.

What a day. . .
