It was afternoon practice and Akaya was slumped over one of the court's bench.

"My legs are killing me. And my mouth is parched" whined Rikkaidai's junior ace.

"Fukubuchou said we can go home early today." said Marui taking a seat beside him.

"He's accompanying Mura buchou to his checkup."

"Really?"

"Yup." –gum pops-

"YAY! Home here I come!"

And with that Akaya grabbed his bag and ran off towards home.

"It's not even time yet." Marui said scratching his head.

"Where the fu-…are my keys?! Otou-san and okaa-san won't be back until 6 and it's only 4!" exclaimed Akaya rummaging through his bag and pockets.

"I'm…locked out of my own house…OH THE SHAME" (You can practically see all those black lines. XD)

So…poor Akaya was locked out of his own house. What does he do now? He takes out his journal to kill time because he was too lazy to move to the nearest courts to kick ass.

"Dear di-…journal. Why do I keep doing that?"

"Today, I had morning practice, then classes, then more classes. What a pain" –sigh-

"Yusuke-sensei put me on lunch detention for pulling a girl's hair during Mathematics. It was her fault, honestly. She stole my favourite eraser when I looked away. But being the awesome demon that I am, I stopped her. I felt like a hero protecting my eraser from kidnappers." –nod nod-

"Afternoon practice…ran laps and had a practice match with Marui-senpai. It's his entire fault that I'm sitting out here. If he hadn't told me that practice ends earlier today, I wouldn't have run for home. Stupid senpai." –pouts-

"On another note, I wonder why Marui-senpai has to eat sweets just to be active…and functional. Maybe he is just using it as an excuse to eat?! Maybe I should do that. But it probably won't work. Aww. Oh, and Marui-senpai doesn't like to share. He slapped my hand away once when I reached for his grape bubblegum that was lying on his tennis bag. It stung a lot! He slaps like my sister I swear…it's really, really painful." -pouts-

"Niou-senpai says to not blame Marui-senpai. He says blame to this particular time of the month when he suddenly turns a bit meaner. I didn't get what he was saying. Does a ghost possess Marui-senpai at some point of the month? Hmm…I wonder about that. But…Marui-senpai is not really mean at all actually, he's mostly really nice. I like Marui-senpai when he's like that." –pause-

"Oh my god, I did not just say that. I didn't, I didn't…" –starts mumbling- (second Shinji?)

"Hey Akaya!" –pop-

"Wha? Huh…? Marui-senpai? What are you doing here?"

"Umm...I'm on my way home, and a second thing, why are you sitting outside?"

"I forgot to bring my keys and my parents aren't home yet, they'll be back later so I'm going to sit here until they come back because I'm too lazy to walk to any of senpai's houses or to the nearest courts to play anyone who is actually willing to challenge me cause they all suck.

"Did you breathe during all that? Anyways you can come to my house till your parents come back. Or you might get kidnapped by some sick rapist or something" –pop-

"Really? Can you piggyback me there?"

"No. A tensai will carry NO-ONE. REPEAT, NO-ONE."

"Aww. Stingy senpai."

"Coming?" Marui said, as he continued walking, ignoring Akaya's remark.

"Ah wait Marui-senpai!" Akaya said as he ran after his senpai.

"Yup. Marui-senpai is definitley nicer this way." Akaya thought in his head.

"Where is my gum?!" Marui shrieked (yes shrieked) while shaking Akaya vigorously.

"I don't know, honest senpai!" Akaya said getting a bit nauseous.

There was a moments before a faint popping sound was heard.

"Niou!" Marui screamed, running after the laughing trickster.

"I think Marui-senpai got possessed by a ghost today." Akaya said nodding.
