Chapter 03 - The first round
"Let's start, one set match. How's that Ryuzaki chan?" Momo said. "Ii yo. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu senpai." She replied. "Really, what is Momo-senpai thinking, going against Sakuno like that." I muttered sitting down with his legs crossed against the fence. "Ehh? Sakuno hey? That girl from Junior high.getting close are we nya?" Eiji-senpai teased. "Teh," I pulled down my cap and observed the match.
Sakuno was serving. It all happened too fast and before they knew it, the ball had flown past Momo. She had aced it! The look of surprise on Momo's face was clear that he was ready just didn't see it. As the game continued, I saw that she wasn't the same person as she was before. She played with a certain style, but no matter what it was, all her movements were very graceful and precise. "uhn nya..she's very good, and kawaii too." Eiji-senpai grinned and watched the game intensely. Some of the moves she pulled off surprised the three of us. "Ahh, interesting." I heard Fuji senpai comment. Everyone but Oishi senpai was there. Capatain Tezuka, like usual watched in silence with that serious look on his face. The score was now 6-4 in Sakuno's favor, 7-5 in Momo's and now they were in a tie-break. It looked like she was having a lot of fun. From here it just looked like she's having as much fun as she would wandering around in a park.
"Inui! You're taking data of her?!" Eiji-senpai cried, scooting over to look in Inui's notebook.
"Very interesting data, her movements are almost like she's performing a type of martial arts. Her moves a fast, sharp and the way she's holding the racket is correct, but it's almost the same as using a sword or weapon. Her racket swings are fancy but she is able to maneuver moves that are able to enhance her chances of hitting the ball." "Sugoii da nya." Eiji senpai said in awe. Even Eiji senpai is impressed, the acrobatic player.she must be real good then. "Momo chan senpai's Dunk Smash!!" Horio voice yelled out. I focused back on the match. She's done for.she's too far to her right, and the smash was towards her left. Suddenly she made a quick dash to her left spun so that her back was towards Momo-senpai and she skillfully hit the ball with a backhand. Her posture was still like those samurai or ninjas after they just did a jump kill. (looked like Fuji senpai's Higuma Otoshi posture) "Sugoii na."
"who's that girl?" "She's so good" "She returned Momo senpai's dunk smash." Around me voices were talking with awe. Unfortunately the next point was the final point which she lost, which concluded the game as Momo-senpai's win. "Arigato gozaimasu, senpai. Thanks for going easy on me." She said as they shook hands. "Yah hahah, you're quite a challenger. Maybe we'll play again sometime." He laughed. "Sure. Well I have to get going, have to talk to a sensei. Bye senpai!". She hurriedly packed up and ran off the courts pass all her admirers. I looked at the guys who were staring at her. I wonder if they were admiring her skills or just checking her out. "Good game, Momoshiro," Captain Tezuka said. "ahhh I'm tired. She had so many unexpected moves. Damn quick too! Your girlfriend is real good Echizen." Momo-senpai lay on the ground panting in front of us. "GIRLFRIEND?!!!" everyone cried. (Except Tezuka, Fuji and Inui that is) "Urusai senpai." Momo senpai laughed loudly. Then they all left for class still talking about Sakuno. I quietly followed them, with Horio tachi ahead of me. "Uhn..a-re." A bracelet? Sakuno's? She'll find it if she comes back, I decided to keep walking, but then I changed my mind and returned to retrieve it.
