The four major teams in Kanagawa district go together in a training camp (to save money). There, they will find out something about kitsune-chan.

Here it goes.

Chapter one: The dreaded camp

"What?!" Kanagawa shook. The birds all flew. There was a very strong earthquake. All people stopped from their daily activities. The cat's hair (is it hair?) rose.

For, the dreaded camp had been set.

"No way! Anzai sensei! I don't want to stay with these *ssh*les for two whole weeks!" Mitsui cried in despair. "Who wants to stay with you, Micchi!" Hanamichi asked to the scar-faced boy. Miyagi is advancing towards him, too. Anzai sensei broke the fight.

"If I hadn't mentioned, the other teams in Kanagawa are also joining, you'll have a chance to defeat the others at the camp." All the eyes in the gym sparkled. Especially the fox that was standing quietly at the side. This is such a good thing! However, all just had to end in anarchy. "I have no one to defeat like you shit heads. Because, unlike you, I am already the best."

If the camp was dreaded, those words are just as destructive.

(Meanwhile, in Ryonan)

"What?!" (This is the same time with the other three teams, that's why Kanagawa shook) All the Ryonan people stared at their coach. "But-" "No buts. Be here tomorrow by 4:30 or else. Practice dismissed!"

All the Ryonan players can't do anything. When their coach said it, he means it. He is very strict in the attendance. (Just put Sendoh off the list.). Koshino and Sendoh stared at each other.

(Then, we'll go to Kainan)

"What?!" (Yup, the same time with the other three.) "We meet here at 4:15 since the train station is a little bit far. If you get late, just follow us in the train station. Practice dismissed." Coach Takatoh said sternly. He has the same thought that goes on with his old time rival: I don't want to go there. But, this is the only way to improve the team, to beat Taoka. (Gym burns up :-)

(Last but not the least, Shoyo)

"What?!" (You know when) Hanagata nodded. "Tomorrow?! Why didn't you announce it earlier?" Haesegawa asked furiously. "Well" Fujima started "The other three schools, namely Kainan, Shohoku and Ronan, had decided about this just yesterday. In order to save money, they chose the package on the training camp. That, unfortunately, is about to start tomorrow." He finished, and all the other people stared at each other. "That's it, I guess. You may go now." He said, turning his back. Knowing they couldn't disturb their captain, they all went to Hanagata.

***

Tomorrow, 4:30 pm. In the train station.

The train station was silent. The train to the other parts if the country didn't arrive yet. It was very silent; you could hear a pin drop. That is, until the four basketball teams of Kanagawa arrived.

"Hey! That is my wallet!" Mitsui said as he tried to grab his leather wallet off the red-head's hand. The red-head just jumped around the train station that was standing so quietly. "Go and get it if you can! But, knowing you, you'll most probably be too exhausted to run around! Nyahahaha!" He said, running around the train station like a lunatic. His heels clicked. He laughed around until he bumped to someone.

"Hey! Watch it out, *ssh*le!" Was the exasperated shout from the person who he had bumped to. He turned around just to see brown hair and blue eyes. He bowed his head a little (just a little, Fujima's fans) just to see the brown head captain. Fujima had his eyes burning with anger to Hanamichi. Hanamichi was in the mood to annoy, not to be sensitive.

"Why are you so angry, shorty bench warmer?" He asked, smiling annoyingly to the boy. Fujima burned with all his fuses inside his body. "What the h*ll!" He shouted back. This isn't just his day. Hanagata stepped out from the burning Fujima's back. He approached Sakuragi. "You better shut up now before Kenji beats the hell out of you." The spectacled boy whispered to Sakuragi. He then walked to Kenji's side where Shoyo team is about to meet each other.

Then, he felt a snap in his right hand. He went back to see it: and saw the scarred face boy with his wallet at hand. "Nice one, Mitcchi!" Hanamichi said as he tried to get the wallet. "Na-ah!"

And so, the childish freaks made their way to chaos.

(6 minutes, 4:25 pm.)

"Ah! Where the f****** h*ll are the others?" Mitsui said as he tried to balance himself in one hand while standing upside down. There were a lot of signs of ache. Finally, there was one shout.

"I QUIT!" Ryota shouted in despair. There were cheers at the place. A lot were dancing around like lunatics. Ryota sighed as he slumped down on the floor.

What were they doing? Let me answer your question: They are trying to balance themselves in one hand, standing upside down. The one who loses has to pay 1000 yen. And, Miyagi did. After the paying, they were sitting dumbly on the bench again.

"Damn." Hanamichi stared at the ceiling. "When will the train come?" He asked impatiently. Mitsui stared at the ceiling, too. "Will Mr. Late Comer be able to come on time?" Kosh asked as he stared at the ceiling like the others.

Then, he noticed two figures going in the entrance. "Hey! Akira!" Koshino waved his hands. Akira ran, dragging someone with him.

"Kitsune?" Hanamichi said as he stared at the person the broom head was dragging. His eyes were as big as elephants. Then, Akira reached the place where the tallest people in the train station are. He was panting, and so is the fox beside him.

"Hey! What are you doing with that living block of ice?" Koshino asked his best friend. "Now, don't be so rude. We went here together because.""Because.?" "

Sendoh smiled thoughtfully. "I told you we moved, right? Well, he just happened to be the occupant of the apartment next to us. Nee. kitsune- chan?" He asked the boy who had recovered his composure faster than him. Kaede glared at him. "If it weren't for you, I could have arrived earlier." He stated with pure displeasure in his face.

Sendoh blushed and scratched his back. He smiled. Then, Koshino entered the scene. He stood between the outraged fox and anxious broom head. He closed his eyes and folded his arms. "I understand your feeling, Akira's new neighbor. He used to do that to me."

The train, luckily and at last, arrived. It answered a lot of boys, a girl, and four coaches' prayers.

***

The train crew sighed. There is no use stopping the people who had just entered the train. Business is business, job is job, customer is always right and life is precious. They love their lives, thank you very much.

Besides, not all of them are causing the chaos. Only four of them. But, hell, they are like millions of battalions fighting.

"Nanda baka zaru? Teme!" Hanamichi shouted hysterically at the dark-haired monkey before him. Nobunaga's face also heatened. "Look who's talking! Who is the monkey here anyway?" Nobunaga shouted back. Miyagi laughed out loud with Mitsui. "Why, both of you! Brainless monkeys!" They both laughed out loud. The two shouted all the curses you can see in a book. Then, they went after the two seniors.

That is when the two captains from Kainan and Shohoku let out their deadly punches on the four's head. "Maki." Nobunaga cried his heart out when his admired captain punched his head. "Stop this stupidity now, Nobunaga." He said. He motioned Nobunaga to follow him to Kainan's part of the train. Akagi dragged Miyagi and Hanamichi to Shohoku's side of the train. Everyone, especially the crew, sighed in contentment.

At last, Arigato Kami-sama, the giants got out of the train.

***

The four captains, three coaches and one supervisor with three managers and a manageress, all sighed, defeated. They are in front of the dreaded camp. Yet, the endless fights of some members from the teams never seemed to stop. This would be very hard. They had to bear with the childish people for two whole weeks.

"Naniya baka kitsune? Teme!" "Do'aho." "Do'aho. Hahahaha!" "Nanda Micchi?!" "Ore wa Mitsui!" "Nanda? ORE WA TENSAI!" "Baka zaru." "Naniya baka kitsune?!"

All the people sighed once again.

***

The sun is setting.

Yet, the adrenaline of the boys never seemed to fade. They are now sitting at the assigned rooms they have. After the assembly at the main hall, which turned out to be a disaster, they went to their assigned rooms. Yet, the room grouping is not that beautiful. There are supposed to be four boys per room. This is the groupings:

Room 1: Hanamichi Sakuragi

Kiyota Nobunaga

Miyagi Ryota

Akagi Takenori

Room 2: Rukawa Kaede

Sendoh Akira

Maki Shin-ichi

Fujima Kenji

Room 3: Hikowichi Aida

Koshino Hiroaki

Mitsui Hisashi

Jun Uozumi

Kogure Kiminobou

Room 4: Jin Shoichiro

Hanagata Toru

Uekusa ???

Nagano???

Room 5: Takano ???

Ito???

Haesegawa???

Fukuda Kiccho

There goes the grouping. Going back, they are now sitting at their assigned rooms, dead pan. (Very usual for our hero for this fic, though.)

(Scene in R1)

"Nanda baka zaru?" Hana was, yet again, fighting with his room mate. Nobunaga turned to a raging tomato. "What the h*ll?" He asked with the raging tomato face. As they were to go to, yet, another scramble, gorilla punches went from every direction. A very nice start for the first day of the two next weeks.

(Scene in R2)

"Hi! Never thought that they will put the four aces in one room together. Nah, Fujima-san?" Maki asked. Fujima sighed contentedly. "At least I can get away from the raging monkeys for a little while." He said. Sendoh giggled. "I'm just wondering how Shohoku can keep up with the three's high adrenaline. What can you say, Rukawa-kun?" He asked smiling, turning to his back where the first year's bed is. However, he was only greeted with the infinity Z's. The three other aces sweat dropped.

(Scene in R3)

"Never thought that I'll be with you, Koshino-san and Uozumi-san! And oh, Mitsui-sempai is here, too! Not to mention Kogure-sempai! This camp will be totally exciting! Imagine being placed with four great players! What are we going to do, then? Let's see. There are twelve pillows. There are eleven drawers, there are ten chairs all together, and there are nine hangers." As Hikowichi continued his babbling, the three other roommates of his were getting pretty angry. The other one is sweat dropping all the way.

(Scene in R4)

Hanagata smiled at the other room mates of his. They all smiled back. Then they continued fixing their things. This will be the group of people he will be with for fourteen days, or rather for thirteen days. They look OK. He has to thank Kami-sama for putting his head off the noise from the two monkeys.

(Scene in R5)

Nothing. It was plain nothing. No noise was heard in this particular room except the constant rubbing of clothes, the opening and closing of the drawers and the zip of the zippers.

Oh, well. Not too many disasters came their way. Except, that is, at dinner time. Mitsui sighed. These people really are going to kill the camp's crew.

(flashback)

SK#11: ZZZ.

Ry#7: (Sitting next to him) Rukawa-kun, wake up now. You have to finish your dinner.

SK#11: ZZZ.

SK#10: Ha, lose your hope now, broom head. That fox does nothing but sleep, he's useless. Unlike this genius.

TOG! (Koshino, who had just entered the room, accidentally kicked Sakuragi's shoe, which he left near the door, and hit his face. The shoe then fell in Hana's plate.)

Everyone: (sweat drop)

SK#10: Why you shorty!

Ry#6: What the **** did you just call me?

SK#10: Shorty! You just ruined the genius' dinner!

Ry#6: (face reddens) How dare you call me shorty!

SK#10: You really are short!

Ry#6: You red-head monkey! Have respect to your elders!

BONK (Akagi gave Sakuragi the famous gorilla punch. Every body sweat dropped except Kiyota, Miyagi, and Mitsui and, of course, Sakuragi)

SK#4: Give respect to the food.

SK#10: What are you three laughing at?

Three: (keeps on laughing)

SK#10: What you.?

And there was light. Light headed four people. All the others ignored the chaos happening at the corner of the room. They had been used to it.

(present)

Mitsui sighed and fixed his pillow. He lied down. Oh, well, he should sleep now. He placed his hand on his side and closed his eyes.
