It was on the day of Soul high school's first game, and the players sat together in the cafeteria, it was much of a common thing for them to sit around as they try to memorize the play visually and mentally. Yunsung was having problems trying to memorize them all. To pass the time, Yunsung let his mind wander off as he looked around the cafeteria until he saw Cassandra sitting next to Xianghua and Setsuka, talking about what they did over the summer. Yunsung just smiled when he looked at Cassandra just admiring her eyes, her hair and even her cute smile. Yunsung was beginning to daydream when all of a sudden; a slap across the back of Yunsung's head by Hwang snapped him out of his daydream. "Pay attention". Said Hwang. Yunsung resumed back into learning the plays with the other players. When lunch was over, the players split up into groups of 2, each with a copy of plays to memorize. During their classes, the players couldn't keep their eyes off the clocks, and off the plays that they were studying. When school let out, the players headed for the gym. When they got to the gym, the bleachers were already set up, and there was a hooded figure sitting down on the third row of the bleachers. All of the players looked around confused and then at the hooded figure. "There's no one here but that hooded figure person". Said Li Long. "That's where you're wrong". Said the hooded figure. "That voice sounds all too familiar". Said Hwang. "That's right". Said the hooded figure that stood up and took his hoodie off. "Coach Edgemaster". Said Mitsurugi. "In the flesh". Said Edgemaster as he made his way down the bleachers wearing a pin-stripe suit walking towards the players. "Tonight's the big night". Said Edgemaster. "Can't wait". Said Yunsung. "By the way, here are the jerseys". Said Edgemaster. One by one, the players took their jersey that they chose and began to wear it. "Let's start studying the plays". Said Edgemaster. The players looked around and smiled. They did the plays that they remembered and Edgemaster was impressed. "Hmmmm". Said Edgemaster. "I'm Impressed". He added. A few hours later, the players were in the locker room as the opposition was out on the court shooting around. "This is it, fellas". Said Edgemaster. "The first game of the season, and we went over the plays for a while and I want all of you to go out there and have a good time". Said Edgemaster. "Soul on three, 1, 2, 3" said Edgemaster. "SOUL"! Said the players. The players emerged from the locker room and ran around the court as the crowd cheered and applauded. Yunsung looked around and saw Cassandra clapping and smiling, Maxi looked up and saw Setsuka playing with her hair, and Kilik looked up and saw Xianghua whistling and cheering in a high-pitched voice. The players then started shooting around as they saw the opposition going over their strategy. After the players stopped shooting around, it was time for the P.A. announcer to introduce the starting five for Soul High School. "And now stand up and make some noise for Soul High School". Said the announcer. "At Power forward, number 50, Heishiro "one-man team" Mitsurugi". "At Center, number 30, Siegfried "Ziggy" Schautffen". "At Shooting guard, number 96, Hong "the flame" Yunsung". "At Small forward, number 44, Maxi "Dragon" Soryuju". "And at Point guard, number 38, Kilik "Kali" Chan". The crowd cheered as the starting five for the Soul high school basketball team. "It's Showtime". Said Kilik. Yunsung began to hop around as he saw Cassandra in the crowd winking at him as a remembrance about the bet that Yunsung had made to her. "Everyone, ready"? Asked the referee. Both teams nodded as the ref threw the ball for the tip-off. Siegfried caught the ball and passed it to Kilik. "Three-two special". Said Kilik. The team started the three two special as Kilik shook past the guard and made a lay-up. The opposition would slump six minutes into the game as Soul High School was leading 19-6. At the end of the first quarter, the players felt confident in themselves that they were gonna come out on top. " Not bad". Said Edgemaster. As the second quarter began, Kilik began to play the three-two special but he got doubled team and the opposition soon went on a fast break to the basket. "WHERE'S THE HELP"? Yelled Kilik. Yunsung had the ball in his hands and saw Cassandra looking at him. Yunsung was about to hit a three-pointer when the small forward of the opposition blocked the shot and made a lay-up. Six minutes into the game, and Edgemaster had called a time-out. "What the hell is wrong with all of you"? Asked Edgemaster. "We're trying the best we can". Said Kilik. The players got back into the court and the same result remained until the end of the first half. The score was 38-45, cherry tree high. In the locker room, Edgemaster was furious "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU"! He bellowed. "It's like all of you don't want to even play". He added. "We've been studying the plays since we got to school". Said Kilik. "Not good enough". Said Edgemaster. "How do all of you expect to win just by looking at the play and mentally doing it in your heads"? He said. "It also takes coordination, and physical skill". He added. The players soon began to think about what Edgemaster was saying and that they needed to learn the plays mentally and physically. At the start of 2nd half, Raphael, Li Long, Rock, Hwang, and Zasalamel entered the game replacing Maxi, Yunsung, Kilik, Mitsurugi, and Siegfried. Raphael led the team with a series of three-pointers whenever he had the ball. Soul was down by 3 points. Going in the fourth quarter, Hwang, another three-point specialist, hits the three to tie the game. The opposition called a timeout and Soul rethink their strategy over. With over a minute and 2 seconds left on the clock, Raphael missed a three point shot as the team went back on defense. The opposition guard's lay-up was blocked by Rock and picked off by Zasalamel and Li Long. Li Long called a timeout with 10 seconds left on the clock. This time around Maxi, Yunsung, and Kilik came back in the game replacing Hwang, Raphael, and Li Long. Kilik in bounded the ball to Maxi, who made a pass to Yunsung for the shot. Yunsung and others watched on as the ball bounced around the rim until, finally… the buzzer went off and the shot went in. Soul high school had won its first game in over 4 years. "We did it, we did it". Said Maxi. Yunsung then took a glance over at Cassandra and winked in her direction. "I haven't forgotten". He said to Cassandra. "Good game, boys" said Edgemaster as the team headed into the locker room. "What was the score" asked Mitsurugi. "97-96" said Yunsung. "I saw you talking to that girl" said Hwang. "Next week, we have another game, so for at least 2 days, get some rest" said Edgemaster. "But after that, no excuses, just practice" Edgemaster added. "I know the whole school is going to be talking about this" said Hwang. "Feels good to win" said Rock. "Sure does" said Yunsung as he lounged back thinking about Cassandra and the date if the team remained undefeated.
