I love my brother, but he can't always fix my problems or be there for me all the time. I used to love the game he loves to play, but a single moment can change all that in a heartbeat. Anything can change your mindset, something you love can turn into something you're afraid of, well that's the case for me.

About two years ago I would have done anything to play volleyball, the game I loved so much for so long. But during my final year in middle school during the finals I had bruised my knee. When I jumped up to block a set later I landed on my leg wrong and fell backwards, I put my hand out to save my fall but instead of stopping my fall I ended up breaking a bone in my arm. When I fell my head hit a pole and I was rendered unconscious, my brother, Koutarou, was there so he was placed in pain when he heard the scream that erupted from my lips when I was inflicted with pain, it was all my fault that I had given this burden to him, it was all my fault that I got injured, it was all my fault that because of the injury, I lost my love for volleyball. I am lucky to have him as my brother and my closest friend, especially in moments like these.

I'm Arisu Bokuto, a second year student at Fukurodani High, well technically I'm a third year. The same high school my brother goes to. Sometimes Koutarou can be an idiot, but so can everyone else. The main difference between my idiot brother and most of the other idiots is that he is a volleyball idiot, a special kind of idiot. I used to be a volleyball idiot, but ever since my injury in my last year of middle school and my brothers first year of high school, I doubt I will ever be a volleyball idiot ever again.


As Arisu fell asleep I cautiously lifted her into my arms and grabbed a bag I packed for her and myself at the training camp. I headed to the train and I immediately felt stares coming my way, well Arisu's way.

"Hey, hey, hey." I stated at my fellow volleyball teammates when Akaashi said behind me:

"She will kill you, you know."

We all headed onto the bus and after a little bit we arrived at Shinzen. I placed her down gently on the ground and headed off to the gym with the others.

A few hours passed and my doom finally arrived.

"KOUTAROU!" Arisu screamed as she arrived at the gym door, an evident look of fury in her eyes and riddled onto her face.


"KOUTAROU!" I yelled as I had finally reached the gym door. I glared at him and the gym went eerily quiet as all the colour drained from his face. I started sprinting towards him and he started running. Everyone's gaze was on me, but I didn't care.

I knew I couldn't catch up to him as he was hella fast, but a set to the back of his head shouldn't hurt my chances. I grabbed a volleyball and threw it into the air. I jumped up and aimed the ball straight at my brother's head, it hit him in the back and knocked him forward slightly.

"I will kill you!" I said, putting as much venom into it as possible.

"Told you." Akaashi said to Koutarou, perfectly well knowing how I would react. I ran up to him and started knocking him on the head.

"Ow!" he said while he, Akaashi, and Kuroo tried tearing me off his back.

"It's one thing to drag me to your stupid attempts of trying to get me to love volleyball again while I am conscious, but it is a whole other thing to drag me here against my will while I am sleeping!" I told him as the trio finally managed to tear me away from hitting him.

Everyone still dumbfounded, I threw the ball back into the basket.

"You can't keep trying to make me love volleyball again, there is no point."

Yamamoto finally spoke up.

"Who are you?" He asked.

"I'm this idiot's younger sister, Arisu Bokuto. I'm surprised you couldn't tell. I dyed my hair too." I said lifting up a lair of my hair to show a layer of white hair. Everyone looked shocked, except of course a few.

"Arisu, what are you doing here?" Kuroo asked

"Well, like I said, Kou dragged me here while I was asleep so I decided to try and beat the living hell out of him." Of course everyone knew she was only joking, but her voice was so serious that not everyone could tell the difference.

"Well, anyways, I'm gonna go call Pa to pick me up so I don't have to hear your incessant whining, Kou." I chuckled slightly after I said this

"Please stay Arisu~"

"No."

"I'll buy you dessert when we get home. Pleeaaasssseeee~"

"Fine. But only for the dessert. But I'm gonna call Em that I won't make it to her place later to study. I'll tell her that you dragged me here though." I replied and Kou's glum expression turned into a smile that you could only see him wear.

"Hey Noya." I said as I waved at him.

"Hey Arisu!" He said enthusiastically while jumping slightly.

"How do you know her?" I could hear the guy with the buzzcut say as I made my way out of the gym.


"Hey, Ember, I won't be able to come study with you later because my brother dragged me to this week long training camp."

"It's all cool, Arisu, I understand how persistent your brother can be." I snickered at her comment.

"Oh, Noya is at the camp too, so at least I know more than a few people here."

"Oh, yeah, how do you know him again? Isn't he all the way down in Miyagi along with some of your other long distance friends? I can't recall their names tho."

"Well, when I went down to Miyagi for a month to visit my mum a few years back, I saw him in a match while I tagged along with Loserkawa, sorry, Oikawa and Iwa. Then when I visited her again the next year I had to attend Karasuno for that month and I met him."

"Right, well, better not keep you away from the training camp much longer Arisu-chan. Before I forget, we have a game with the T-ball team next Friday."

"That's cool. I'll be sure to look forward to it then."
