-I dont own KnB-
Kumamoto Prefectural High School
Once at the training site, Harasawa raised his voice.
"Although we can use the basketball hall as often as we want, it can sometimes happen that another team will train here. The team that owns the hall. So please don't be surprised if on some days you have to wait until the field is clear again. "
A whisper went through the accumulated players.
"A league team is playing here, isn't it? From the Japanese basketball league. "
"Yes, now I can remember it too."
"That's cool, we might really meet some of the professional players then"
"Didn't Inter High take place here three years ago - it seems very familiar to me"
Suddenly there was a stern and shrill whistle.
Riko, who brought attention to the coaches again with a pipe in her mouth, began to explain: "Yes, you are right. Usually a professional basketball team plays here, and yes, you are guaranteed to see the professionals train, but if I see one of you staring at them and you screwed up YOUR own training - you know what will happen", threatened Riko now to the basketball players. With a nod, they understood everyone and Riko was very satisfied.
"Then we should go in now," said Nakatani, the Shutoku coach.
And so the large group of basketball players made their way into the hall.
Meanwhile at Kumamoto airport
The young and the older man were both standing at the bus stop where the others were already in the morning, waiting for the bus that would take them both to the hotel. In the past time they were in a cafe in the airport, they had been talking about very different things. What has happened in the past few years. How families are doing. And about basketball. About the basketball that is played in the USA and how the Japanese basketball players have developed. And finally, they also talked about six very specific players that they knew only too well.
"I'm really looking forward to their faces when we show up there," admitted the young man with the black hair. The older man smiled and said: "Everyone will be shocked at first, will not get a word out, their other teams will meet ask who we are and finally the six will run after you - I think it will be like that. The greeting. "
The black-haired man looked at the white-haired man, who was a little shorter than he was.
"Hah! I think exactly the same thing. I should have brought a pillow with me, then I would fall softly. By the way: Who knows? "
"My cousin is the only one who knows that we are. The other coaches were only told that two more guests were invited by the association. "
The boy nodded. To be honest, he was a little excited. How do you think his kohais will react? Although he knew what had happened in the last year of their middle school years, he was not entirely sure whether they really were the basketball-crazy "kids" he was allowed to meet in middle school. The older one on his left side too saw that in the boy, some thoughts were going on.
"Don't worry about their reaction. They would never have turned their backs on basketball deep in their hearts and now our bus has just arrived. "
And with that both got on the bus, which, like the others before them, would take them to the "Hotel Nikko".
During training
"Now that almost everyone is there, let's start training. But warm up first. Fifteen laps around the field and thirty sit-ups, plus five sprints and forty dribbles with the weaker hand. Let's go! ", and with that Riko starts the training.
While the players are warming up and being watched by Takeuchi and Nakatani, the remaining coaches sit among themselves. Momoi and Riko meanwhile stood in the middle of the hall and entered their data about the players.
"The Winter Cup has really improved the stamina of most players and their stamina is also really good. Even better than at Inter High", Momoi says with fascination.
"Yes, it will be a real fight for some teams in the coming school year."
"It's just a shame for third graders," Momoi says disappointed.
But Riko cheers her up again.
"Our training here can only help you at the university. Most of them will definitely join the basketball club there. "
"Mhmmm ... Um Riko-san?", came from Satsuki quietly. The addressed girl now looked at the other person from the players.
"I wanted to apologize to the guys for messing up the first day. I'll talk to Akashi-kun and Testu-kun that they should better keep the four under control before they upset the other coaches ... ", but then Riko interrupted with a shake of the head.
"You do not have to apologize. I know how they're all. I have also made an appointment with Kuroko-kun and Akashi-kun to massacre them. I leave it entirely up to the two of them. We should pay attention to the others, because let's be honest: the six are already training themselves, aren't they? ", Riko smiles and looks at the pink-haired Touou manager. She nods back with a smile.
"You're right, and it's always fun when Tetsu-kun and Akashi-kun take the four in their streak. The atmosphere is more like hell with the devils in a living form", Satsuki chuckles.
"I definitely want to see that. I know what it's like to get the devil out of you - I can sing a song about it with my boys ... ah, and there we have one already ", with a view of Kagami, she yells afterwards, "Bakagami doesn't stop at a coffee party with Himuro, but get moving, otherwise I will come to you and make a fire under your ass!"
Satsuki, who got the theater very well, smiles to herself. Sometimes Riko-san can even reach Akashi-kun as far as the devil is concerned. And if you talk about the devil ...
"Momoi, Aida, sorry for the disturbance, but I wanted to know what it looks like with training games in different groups," waiting for an answer, Akashi looks at the two girls. Riko is the first to speak.
"It's good that you mentioned it. Momoi-san and I already talked on the plane about how we divide the groups ... ", Riko started, but was interrupted.
"Why?", the neon redhead interrupted.
With a small angry face because he had interrupted her so easily, Riko continued: "Because we both really didn't know what the other coaches wanted from us when they came up with the statement that we should just draw - until we find out what they meant by that", the former Teiko captain looked at them. Momoi then went on to explain: "They really meant it. We should draw lots - and that's how we ended up in these groups ", so she handed her clipboard the taller one, who was now watching this with watchful eyes.
Until he finally frowned.
"I don't find our names on it, should that be a bad joke from the coaches? Aida would explain that to me", when he finally gave Riko the clipboard. Riko knew exactly what the Rakuzan captain wanted to know.
"As you have seen, all the names are on the board - only your six names are not and there is a good reason for that."
"And which? Even if I can imagine, but please continue! "
Riko sighed and started to explain.
"The association decided it so, none of us had a chance when they told us about it. It was therefore very difficult for us to put together the right teams, because then you will all play in one team. But what surprised me - and you're standing in front of me, I can ask you - didn't you insist on being a team here in the camp? "
Akashi looked at Kuroko, who was constantly occupied by Momoi, who wanted to know what the other four had done to get the anger out of the two smallest of the group, again, and therefore did not know about what his coach and Akashi were talking about, so he shrugged his shoulders apologetically and said: "Sorry, but I wasn't listening, how was the question?", he could feel Rikos and Akashi's aura, he quickly looked at Momoi with wide eyes, who realized what was going on.
"That is probably my fault - so that I talked to Tetsu-kun so much and he now doesn't know what you were talking about," she then turned to the blue-haired boy next to her, "so sorry Tetsu-kun, but Riko- san wants to know if you have insisted, or if one of you has expressed the wish to be in a team here in this camp. "
The questioned thought for a moment, but a quick glance at Akashi, and he knew: "Even if I could imagine that Kise-kun has hinted at this from time to time - I know that he would never commit Akashi-kun and simply decides - so I can imagine that the association might have planned it that way from the start. "
"Right," Akashi replied, "I think when they got our idea on the table, they knew immediately that this could be their only chance to see us play again. So I finally come to the conclusion that the guest you and the other trainers spoke of will be someone from the association who will oversee our training and behavior. " Three people now looked at him with wide eyes.
Kuroko was the first to find his language again.
"As always, to the point, Akashi-kun." Smiling, the redhead looked at his companion, who in turn, and Momois passed out, also had a small but beautiful smile.
Kuroko and Akashi quickly grabbed the pink-haired manager, who could only mumble "Tetsu-kun", but before she could drift completely into her "Tetsu-kun world", the hall door was opened ...
.
.. and an angry Midorima, a contrite Aomine, a wailing Kise and a bored looking Murasakibara entered the hall. Without further ado, all eyes were on the four late comers.
"There are the gentlemen, yes finally", Hyuga said, strangely avoiding a laugh.
The picture was also too funny. Midorima's left hand twitched conspicuously and his right eye twitched to the beat. Aomine's grinding teeth, heard one went crazy through the whole hall, even a soft growl came from his direction. Behind the two was the blonde, nervous at the end, model and whining any words that nobody understood, his hair looked like he had just got up. Whoever could see better, saw small leaves in his hair. Oh God, did he fall into a bush? Most of them had that in his head. But the giant made the best face. As if nothing had happened, he ate his gummy bears, smacked and looked at it as bored as ever.
But the rather amused mood changed suddenly when the other players saw two smaller figures approach the four who had just arrived.
"Ohoh," Momoi replied, who suddenly returned to reality, "that will end badly. Very badly. Best to go far away."
With a few doubts on their faces, the others finally gave in. Imayoshi and Hyuga were probably the only ones who were curious to see what happened ...
.
.
And here is chapter six.
We are getting closer and closer to the surprise.
In the next chapter the time has finally come ... happy, happy :-)))))))
How did you like it, are you curious to see what kind of punishment the four basketball heads will face?
Until then, stay healthy ...
Best wishes Alina
