Annie: Hoi hoi again!
Andrian: She really has to stop doing that...
Annie: I'll just ignore you at the moment.
Dickson: Again, we don't own Prince of Tennis. I'm not gonna make the disclaimer funny today cause I'm a bit tired.
Annie: He really is. But I'm not! ::starts jumping around::
Adrian & Dickson: She's taking some form of a drug. She'll be normal again, eventually...
Annie: ::eye twitch::
Adrian & Dickson: Errrr... ::gulp:: Bye! ::runs off::
Annie: Get back here! ::chases them:: ::comes back:: Oh yeah! Enjoy the chapter and give us some feedback! Ja! ::goes back to chasing the boys::


The three teenagers walked into their new home, unaware of the eyes on them. By now, every one of the movers had left, and all their things were in place. "Let's check out the house!" Annie said, and dashed off before any of the boys could give a reply. "So... What do we do now?" asked Dickson. Adrian shrugged his shoulders.

The boys looked all around them. The house seemed normal enough. Then they heard a scream. "Holy crap! That sounded like Annie!" The boys followed the direction the sound was coming from. When they arrived, they simply just sweat dropped. "Damn it Will! Watch where the hell you land!" Annie was angry, considering the fact that Will, Dickson's cousin once removed, almost landed on her when he fell from the ceiling. "Will, what are you doing here?" asked Dickson. The boy looked around and noticed that he was somewhere totally new. "Err... I don't know. Last time I checked, I was drinking some fruit punch while sitting in front of my computer. I then spilt some on me and I landed here." "What the hell is going on with fruit punch?" asked Annie. The others just shrugged their shoulders.

"How did you get here?" asked Adrian. William looked up and pointed upward. "There." was all he said. The other three teens averted their eyes up to see another portal. "Holy crap! Another portal!" Annie said and jumped, trying to get sucked in. Every time she jumped, she got closer and closer to the portal. She jumped again. As she was about to enter the portal, it closed. Her eyes shot open, and she fell back to the ground. As if teasing her, it opened again, extremely wide, then closed again.

"Oh come on! This is getting ridiculous! I want out of this place!" The girl was obviously angry. Dickson started, "Well, we did buy all that stuff already," "You mean I bought all that stuff already." Annie cut in. "Yes, you bought all that stuff. Anyways, we might as well just stay" he finished. "Fine." The girl walked out of the room and up the stairs.

The guys were still downstairs. "So... How on earth did you get here?" asked Will. The other two boys replied with, "Fruit punch. Portal." William nodded. "Guys! I call this room considering that it has all my shit in it!" the girl yelled from upstairs. "Stuff Annie, Stuff." Adrian replied. "Sure, whatever. I'm going to sleep. Goodnight!" With that, a loud sliding sound was heard, due to the door. The other boys also had to decide where to sleep that night. But since they were boys, they really didn't care and just slept anywhere.

Throughout the large house, it was quiet at night, even though there were ghosts constantly looking at them. In Dickson's room, he was awakened to a weird sound he heard. He sat up and looked to his left to see a girl holding a knife. "So you're a ghost. Do you plan to kill me with that knife? In any case I'm too tired so we'll pick this up in the morning. You can stay as long as you stay on your side of the bed." With that, he pulled the covers over again. But then, the girl pulled the covers off. The sleep-deprived boy just simply pulled the covers back. She, again, pulled the covers off. This process continued for a while until Dickson took the knife away and threw out his window. Disappointed in the fact that the ghost couldn't scare such a simple-minded person, she gave up on trying to scare him any longer.

In Annie's room, she slept quietly. That is, until she felt something on her left. She tried ignoring it, but it was very persistent. "Oh come on!" She pulled the covers off to reveal a ghost in the form of a cat. "Ooh... Kitty!" With that, she played with the ghost for most of the night.

In Adrian's room, he was sleeping like a log. Nothing could wake him up, not even if he was at an extremely loud rock concert. He was that much of a heavy sleeper. The ghost "tried" to scare him silly, but its attempts came up useless. Adrian then sat up and said, "May I also have your number to go?" and he fell back asleep. The ghosts just sweat dropped. They weren't even going to bother with such a task to scare the boy. They knew their attempts were going to end in vain.

Downstairs, William was in the washroom, wanting to relieve himself. As he was about to go, a ghost came out of the toilet. "AHHH!!!!" As he screamed. The other inhabitants of the house ran downstairs and into the washroom. "AHHH!!! My eyes!" Annie said and turned the other way. The others just sweat dropped. "Annie, I still have my shorts on..." The girl turned around, however, her hands were covering her eyes. She peaked through her fingers, and then took her hands away from her face.

"Anyways, why did you scream?" asked Dickson. "The toilet seat was down..." said Will, in a sad tone. The other three did an anime fall. "WHAT?!?! You screamed because of that?!?!" The girl's blood started to boil. "Yeah… And there was no toilet paper either." William said as he pointed it out. Annie's eyes were twitching. "You want toilet paper?" she asked. Will gave a smile and nodded. "Yes, I wou-" The boy was cut off because of the fact that there was a roll of toilet paper shoved into his mouth.

The next day, Annie was very pissed, as you might say. She had just received, like Dickson and Adrian, her uniform for school. Needless to say, they sucked. They had a horrible look and the color was disgusting. The boys, however, liked their uniform. Especially Dickson, since his usual ensemble was black. Annie's rant on the uniforms was interrupted when she saw the clock. "We're late!" At this, all the 4 of them ran out the door.

By the time they got William registered it was already second period. They went through there boring classes quickly and regrouped on the school roof. "So, we're really in Prince of Tennis…" said William, "COOL!" The others sweat dropped, it seemed that William had adjusted to anime life.

As they walked to the cafeteria, Annie spotted a flyer. "Come one, come all and join the legendary Seishen Gakuen tennis club!" Annie smiled. She always liked tennis and now was her chance to play with some great players. A lot of the players at her other schools weren't very good.

When Annie told the others that she wanted to join the club, they were very supportive, all except Dickson. "Annie, you do know they have separate teams for different genders right?" The others were stunned at this new information. "NO! That's not fair! I don't want to play against Sakuno and Tomoka! I want to play the guys!" Annie yelled. "Well your going to have to convince the coach to let you play. I'm going to suggest you show off a bit to prove you're able to hold your own against the boys. Also by showing off, they are more likely to choose you for the knockout tournament, which selects the team members, which I believe you wish to join right? Ugh too many whichs…" The others eyes widen at the calm logical analysis Dickson gave which made him a bit uncomfortable. "What?"

They arrived at the courts but didn't find the coach there so they decided to wait awhile. While waiting, William asked Annie why she didn't want to play on the girl's team. "Because they really aren't that good. Seriously, I can beat some of them with my eyes closed. Even some of the boys suck…"

Meanwhile

"Arai, did you hear? Some freshman beat Momo today. Lots of people think he's gonna try and join the team."

Arai whipped his head around. There was no way some freshman was going to get a spot on the team. He worked too hard to be beaten by a cocky brat. He walked out of the change room and immediately found a dark haired boy. "Hey! Are you the wonder freshman everyone's talking about?" The boy, Ryoma Echizen, was a modest guy, and though he probably was the wonder freshman, he would rather keep his identity a secret than boast. He looked around and found a very noisy girl and pointed to her. "No, she's the wonder freshman."

Arai was appalled. Not only was the wonder player a freshman, she was a girl? There is no way in hell a girl is going to take his rightful spot. He walked right up to her "Hey freshman. Don't be so confident. Just because you can luck a twist serve doesn't mean you're going to get on the team." Annie glared at the blond newcomer. "One, I'm not a freshman, I'm a senior you moron. Two, if you're looking for the guy who does the twist serve, that's him."

The girl pointed at the boy, who was bouncing a tennis ball on his racket. "Baka." she said and walked back to the group. Arai was not pleased. Not only was he made a fool of, but a girl also told him off. He walked back to where he was before, and released his anger through tennis.

After practice, the group was just standing around playing a messed up game of tennis. There was not much to do anyways. They decided it was time to leave. They started packing up their things until they heard some yelling coming from the boys' change rooms. They directed their attention there to see that Arai was bullying the freshmen. "That guy really needs a good bitch slapping." Annie suggested, but the boys advised her not to do so. She 'hmpf'ed, and they headed home, getting ready for the next day.

The next day flew by very quickly and it was time for the tennis club meeting and practices again. The group of Canadians were on one side of the court, noticing that the training session for the freshmen was creating a toll on them. They saw that they were sweating profusely, and some even collapsed on the ground. However, one stood out. The "super freshman", Ryoma, was standing there, like nothing really happened. It was then that they were ordered to do 50 sit ups. The group felt sorry for them. They didn't have to do such an extreme workout when they were in school.

Many of the first years didn't even get up to 50, and it seemed like Ryoma was the first one to finished. When he was done, Arai and his group walked up to him. They were having a glaring contest. 'He really needs to back off already.' Annie thought. Since the boys knew her enough, they knew that she was going to do something about it, but they did not know exactly what it was yet. They could see that Arai and Echizen were talking. Well, mainly Arai. Then one of the freshmen noticed something. "Th... They're here!" the boy with the 2 years of experience said, although it seemed like the 2 years didn't help him very much.

Everyone turned their attention to the direction of the gate to see that, finally, the Seigaku Regulars had just returned. There were 5 of them, all together, and walking in sync. The one in front had a scary vibe to him. He was the Viper. Beside him were Oishi and the scary data collector, Inui. And beside them were Eiji and Fuji. They confidently walked to the courts and placed their things down. Oishi then said some thing and walked off with Fuji, most likely to play against each other.

Everybody had their eyes on the Regulars. They looked like their eyes were going to pop out of their sockets from just watching what was in front of their eyes. The Regulars were rallying with each other, and each smashed the tennis ball into baskets where the ball would be picked up again and lobbed to the other player only to be smashed back into the basket. They were doing a great job of it. As everybody was watching this, Arai started to talk to Echizen, but it was more like trying to put him down. Annie was on the other side, while the boys were trying to hold her back from causing any "accidents" from happening.

Oishi was rallying still, and lobbed the ball. Unfortunately, it was going too far. As the foreigners' eyes followed the ball, it was going to land on Echizen. Having really quick reflexes, Echizen got ready to smash the ball back into the basket. In the end, the ball made it in. Everyone on the court was astounded, all except the Canadians for they had already seen this happen (Well, duh! They already watched a lot of episodes of PoT), so they were not surprised. Arai's jaw went wide open. You could have stuffed a tennis ball in there and it would have fit. He turned his attention back to Echizen, went over and grabbed him by the shirt. Annie had had enough. She walked over to where they were. When she was about to speak out, the buchou of the tennis team was there. Immediately, everyone had stopped what they were doing and listened to him. He instantly directed orders and told the 2 to run laps. But because of Arai's loud mouth, he made both Echizen and him do 20. He then told everyone else to warm up. Of course, everybody obeyed and did what they were told. Tezuka then left with Oishi. The girl walked back to the group, which was relieved to see that the buchou was there.

The boys started doing their laps and the freshmen were told to do some swinging exercises. After the boys finished, Ryoma walked back to where the others were, looking for his tennis bag. Arai, wanting revenge, had stolen Ryoma's tennis bag earlier. As Ryoma searched, Arai came by to mock him. Any idiot could have deduced that it was Arai who stole the bag and Ryoma knew that.

"If you want your tennis bag back, you should stop showing off and maybe it'll come back. Use this for the time being though." Arai then threw Ryoma an old looking racket. It was old and dusty. The strings didn't seem tight at all. Ryoma calm face seemed to make Arai a little uneasy. "Only pathetic fools who are cowards would steal from another." Ryoma said. Obviously Arai took this as an insult and was on the verge of attacking him when Annie stepped in. "Hey jackass, knock it off." Annie had watched the entire event and was at the breaking point. Ryoma was surprised at the girl. This really was none of her business and yet, here she was yelling at Arai. Before Annie could yell some more profanities, Ryoma gave an interesting challenge.

"Arai, if I beat you with this old racket in tennis, you have to find and give me my rackets. Agreed?"

Arai was shocked at first but his face became confident. He accepted the challenge, but again, before they could go onto the courts, Annie came in. "Hey, I want a piece of him too. Why don't we play doubles?" Arai was getting annoyed. This was an argument between men and this girl kept butting in. Just to shut her up, he randomly grabbed one of his friends to play with him. "Ok, quit stalling and let's play already."

Annie was smiling darkly, almost evilly. "Bring it on."


Author's note:

Dickson: Gomen about the name Ryoma Echizen, we're gonna switched a bit often if that's ok. Just remember Ryoma and Echizen are the same person. Also for the time being, Annie is going to have the most attention, as she's the one that's playing tennis. Don't worry though William, Adrian and I are going to have our 15 minutes of fame in this story.
William: Ooooooo….. 15 minutes of fame….. I want more! I want 20 minutes of fame! 30 minutes! 40 minutes! Wait….. I don't care about fame.
Others: ::sweatdrop::
Annie: Anyways... Check back for the next chapter and remember to review! Ja!
