First legit chapter! I hope you like it! Well it's not a legit chapter but a filler chapter...
Admin: Who wants to say the disclaimer?
Tsukiyama: Can I-
Touka: NO
Admin: Well then you do it, Touka-chan
Touka: Admin doesn't own anything. She just likes messing around with us.
Admin: Well...that was brief
Tsukiyama: I could've done better...*Pouts*
I waited for the bell to ring. The class rushed to pack everything up. Notebooks, pencil pouches, books.
Ding dong ding ding. Everyone in the class rushed out. I hurried out with them, unaware of the boys barreling down the hallway.
We collided, sending my papers everywhere. The one on my left, with the blond hair recovered first. He stood up and began helping me gather all my papers while stumbling through an apology. Is that Hide? I haven't seen Nagachika since summer...
"I'm so sorry, it's just that we had to cross campus and our next teacher is really super strict, and we weren't looking where we were going." The one on my right with black hair hurriedly grabbed the rest of my papers. Once we were done, they thrust their stack at me at the same time.
"Sorry for the trouble!" They both ran off, and I could imagine smoke coming up from their feet like in cartoons. I wonder which teacher they have.
I shrugged my shoulders and headed off to my next class, with was Chemistry. Mixing together dangerous chemicals and hoping they don't explode in your face. Fun.
Chemistry passed by fairly quickly, what with Kise almost singeing his eyebrows off. Now it was the recess break, and I looked around the Quad, which was filled with grass and trees and benches. Of course. I still couldn't tell where I was, because it was my third day here at Kamii. Bit hard to memorize the layout of a super huge campus on your third day, isn't it?
A boy with these hazelish brown eyes with hair the same color as his eyes popped out in front of me.
"Aren't you Nakamura from Kisaragi?" I fiddled with the ring on my finger, but nodded.
"Uh, yeah, why?" He smiled.
"#10, inhumanely good setter, spiker, and middle blocker?" Oh God, please tell me he's not going to bombard me with questions like that fan club last month.
"That's exaggerating it, but yes." I shifter my Chem book to my left hand, stretching the right one.
"Question; are you interested in joining the team here?" the boy asked.
"You guys have a team here?" The boy looked taken aback, but quickly recovered.
"I thought you came here for the volleyball, to be honest." I shook my head.
"If I was here to play, I would've gone to Miyagi. I heard they have one of the best collage teams. I mean, I heard this one was pretty skilled, but I came here because I heard about the advanced courses." Before he could launch into the 'You're so good at volleyball, why don't you play for us' speech, I quickly added, "But if you have room on your team for me, I'll be happy to play." I shoved my Chemistry book into my olive colored messenger bag.
A black haired boy came from around a corner and when he saw Hisami he broke into a jog.
"Hey captain, the team's wondering where you are. We need to plan for our practice match against Miyagi if we want to win."
"Who's this?" I asked.
"Oh, this is Kyodaina Kaito. He's our setter, and he's really good with the ball." I sniffed the air a bit. This Kaito guy smells like...a ghoul. He walked over once he saw me looking at him. His waving black hair framed his deep brown eyes.
"Huh? Hisami, you didn't tell me you had a girlfriend." Hisami blushed a bit when Kyodaina said that, while shaking his head.
"N-no, she's not. She wants to join the team."
"Hi. I'm Nakamura Takara." I said while giving Kyodaina a small wave.
"Hi, I'm Kyodaina Kaito." he responded. "C'mon, if you want to play you gotta meet the team first." He lead the three of us around the corner he came from. There was a stone path, leading into this garden type area.
"So where'e team?" Hisami was looking around, looking for his team. Which was nowhere in sight.
"Over this way. They're all under Old Queen Ann." We tailed him over to a rowan tree, with a large gathering of people under its shade.
"Hey guys, this is the legendary Nakamura! Let's give her the standard welcome." Kyodaina put extra emphasis on the 'standard', so I was getting a bit fidgety about what it meant.
The only girl there, who was sitting on a branch, jumped down.
"Okay, all of you, no shitty welcome pranks, I swear to God. It'll be nice to have another girl on this team so don't scare her away-" One of the boys pulled out a small portable spray bottle and cut the girl off by spraying her in the face.
"Kenta you're dead." The boy that sprayed her, Kenta, looked like the girl colorwise. They both had lightly tanned skin with a yellow undertone, dark brown hair (But the girl's was a shade lighted then the boy's) and narrow, dark brown eyes.
The girl proceeded to pounce on the boy, and have a wrestling match.
"That aside, I'm Kawazoe Junichiro. Those two often break out in small fights like that, despite the fact that they're dating." He had these green eyes bordering on blue and curly brown hair. He went over to the two, and intervened.
"Okay, break the fuck up already, no more fighting for now." Kawazoe said, looming over the two. Kenta was straddling the girl, pinned her hands above her head. He grumbled, clearly saying "Fucking asshole." before getting off his girlfriend and dusting his pants off. He held his hand out to shake.
"Saruwatari Kenta. Middle blocker." He said tersely. I grasped his hand and shook it. Up close, I could see he had faint tan lines around his eyes, indicating he does, or used to wear glasses.
Easily the shortest person in the group, a strawberry blonde slouching against the base of the tree, groped the inside of his backpack before pulling what looked like a party popper out. He pulled the string, confetti and glitter showering the group of people before speaking.
"Congrats on getting Saruwatari to speak properly, instead of his own system of grunts. By the way, I'm Kuroda Kazunari." He put the empty popper down and opened a book. The girl got up and introduced herself to me.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Sakamoto Michiko, ace of the team." she said. She turned to give the guys a warning look, to refrain from doing whatever prank they had planned.
"It's a pleasure. You must be an amazing ace to keep all these guys in check," I responded.
"Oh, it's easy. The moment they find out that you can break walls when you're pissed really scares them." Sakamoto said, while giving me a bright smile. I think I'm going to like her.
The next guy had pale pink eyes, and chin-length hair tied back into a ponytail.
"Nakajima Kazuo. My specialty is serves."
"Oh, can you do one of those jump-float serves? I can do a decent one, but I've never met someone who can do a perfect one." Nakajima thought for a moment.
"Well, I guess I'm pretty good at it. I don't use it too often though." He held out his hand, and I grabbed it to shake it. Instead, he used the grip to pull me down onto the grass next to him.
"What was that for?" I asked, annoyance lacing my voice.
"Wait for it..." Puzzled, I looked at him, until I saw a shadow creep over us. Something warm flumped onto me, and much to my surprise it was a person.
"I'm Amami Tomohisa! Do you know that feeling when you hit the ball and you go 'uwah!'?" Sakamoto ruffled Amami's blond hair, making it stand up.
"I don't know if anyone feels the ball the way you do." Amami promptly got off me, and ran back to the tree and climbed it like a mischievous monkey.
"By the way, I still wanna be the ace! Just because you're my senpai doesn't mean you can be the ace forever!" He hollered, swinging back and forth from a branch on the tree.
Crack. The branch Amami was on snapped in half, and he fell on a napping boy with black hair. I (unsuccessfully) tried to stifle a laugh, but it escaped me.
"Good question, why are you the ace? Are you just the best player on the team?" I asked Sakamoto. She shook her head.
"Kyo insisted I be ace. I'm pretty good, but here, we all are." Kaito kissed her cheek.
"Michi, you look like the most ace type person here." Sakamoto gave him a little shove.
"You only say that because you think I'm the best choice. And don't kiss me, only Kenta can do that." I glanced at the remaining six people. They were all away from the people who had just introduced them to me. I cleared my throat, and walked to the other side of the tree.
"Hi, I'm new to the team." The one closest to me was the boy who had been napping. He stretched his arms, and yawned. He looked up at me, squinting against the sun.
"I'm Nakajima Tadayoshi, Kazuo's brother." So that's why he looks so similar to Kazuo. Tadayoshi pulled his hood over his face and went back to sleep.
The next guy was sitting next to Tadayoshi, eating an apple.
"I'm Matsuura Masato," He said, around bites of apple. "Don't mind Tada-kun, he just didn't get that much sleep last night." Matsuura had blue eyes, but a different shade than Amami. Two boys were sitting on a bench talking with each other. Matsuura named them for me.
"The one with the auburn hair and same colored eyes is Taiki Fujimoto. His older brother Taiki Matsuo is the one next to him that looks like Fuji-kun under a shadow." He pointed at the last two, sitting together under the tree trying to look like they didn't know each other.
"Yamashita Yoshitoki is the blond with green eyes, and the blond with blue eyes is Fujiwara Kazuma. They argue a lot with each other, I mean a freaking ton, but somehow they're still the best of friends." I wondered why these guys were over here instead of with the others. So I asked Matsuura.
"Hey Mat-san, how come you guys are over here instead of with the rest of the team?"
"Oh, that's because the eight over there are part of the starting line up, or they're the main backup players."
"Oh." I fished around in my bag and pulled out an pear, which I started eating. Eating the pear, I climbed into the tree and sat at the highest branch that could support my weight. Kaito looked up to see me swinging my legs and eating a pear.
"How's the weather up there?" I laughed.
"A bit windy, but plenty of sun. You should see for yourself!" Kaito shook his head.
"Nah, I like it better with my feet on the ground. I'd rather that then falling and breaking my head open." I Hooked my leg around the branch, and flipped around it. Then I let go of it entirely, and fell downwards.
"Wheeeeeeee!" I landed on my feet, my nose barely and inch from Kaito's. His eyes grew to the size of plates, and he just stared.
"What, cat got your tongue, Kaito?" Kuroda asked, looking up from his book. Kyodaina shook his head, and went back to his regular self.
"Oh yeah, come to Gymnasium #5 at lunch for practice, and then we can see how good you really are. I wonder how well you really play." I smirked.
"Oh, I guess you could say it's superhuman."
