I do not own Prince of Tennis sadly :(

Matsuo- Head Doctor, Nanami Tanaka- Nurse, wife to Kenta, Mother...Kenta Tanaka- Nanamis' husband

Echizen Ryoma. Momoshiro Takeshi. Kaidoh Kaoru. Kawamura Takashi. Kikumaru Eiji. Oishi Syuichiro. Inui Sadaharu. Fuji Syuusuke. Tezuka Kunimitsu.

As her mind wandered she began to think about home and all the things she would be busy with. After all it's not easy to take care of so many people and work at the same time. Her husband, Kenta, was left to watch the kids today at home to make sure they didn't get themselves in trouble. Luckily for them Kenta didn't have to leave for work since he got a day off and would probably spending his time lazing around the house. She wasn't the only one with a hard job, Kenta was one of the top psychologists in the area and he worked in the same hospital she worked at and was quite proud of his job.

The other members of her family consisted of 8 boys that had personalities ranging from quiet and serious to hyper and always happy. She loved each and every one of them even though they weren't really hers. You see, she had adopted all 8 of them since she couldn't get children the normal way. She had tried for years but finally couldn't wait any longer and adopted her first child or children would be a better description.

The funny thing was that she had adopted all of them in pairs, kinda like twins. First had been Tezuka Kunimitsu and Fuji Syuusuke, then Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Syuichiro, Kawamura Takashi and Inui Sadaharu and lastly Momoshiro Takeshi and Kaidoh Kaoru. When she adopted them their last names could be changed to her and her husbands but she didn't feel right doing it without their permission. When she asked each of them surprisingly all said yes, and they all became the Tanakas'.

'The boys…I should spend more time with them. I feel so bad leaving them at home all the time and their father isn't any better at spending time with them. Not that that's a bad thing but he's always so busy with work that I bet even he doesn't get to spend much time with them. I wonder what they're doing right now?'

"Eiji get down from there!" Syuichiro yelled. "Takeshi help me! It is your fault he's stuck in the tree!" Rubbing the back of his head with a hand Takeshi went closer to help. "EHHHH! NII-CHAN! I think I'm going to fall!" screamed Eiji at the two below.

They were playing a game of tennis together and when Takeshi was trying out a new trick the ball went flying. Looking for what seemed like forever Eiji finally spotted it on the roof in the gutters. Takeshi then dared Eiji to climb to the roof using a tree next to the house to get the ball. Eiji had refused saying it was too dangerous and he didn't want to.

Takeshi then edged him on saying that maybe he wasn't as acrobatic as he claimed and that if he was he should be able to climb to the roof with no problem. However, neither of them thought about the trip back down the tree. It was then that Eiji grabbed a branch and it broke under his weight.

He was now hanging upside down with his foot caught in between two branches. The next branch that he was trying to grab and steady himself with was just out of reach. Within moments Syuichiro came out to watch the match but found his brother stuck in the tree instead. Instantly he started panicking and Takeshi had to calm him down enough to think of a way to get Eiji down safely before he got into more trouble.

Little did they know that a certain sadist of a brother was taking pictures of the whole thing to share with their mother later knowing she would find them very interesting. Momo turned to the screen door that was opening and found a stoic Kunimitsu stepping outside. Panic began to overwhelm him knowing how mad not only his mother was going to be but Kunimitsu as well. He was definitely not the person he wanted to see this right now.

Kunimitsu stoic face almost dropped at the sight of his brother hanging in the tree and the panic that was overtaking the people already there. Feeling a headache coming on he walked over to Syuichiro. "Syuichiro…" he said "why is Eiji in the tree and why isn't anyone getting him down?" "Oh Kunimitsu, I'm so glad you're here! We can't get Eiji down, he…he's stuck!" he said panicky and stuttering.

"Hold on, I have an idea." They heard the voice of Syuusuke shout from the window on the second floor. With a calm face Kunimitsu nodded to Syuusuke and walked over to Takeshi. "Takeshi, go help Syuusuke get Eiji out of there, now." He said with a commanding voice.

Running up stairs Takeshi got to the nearest window and took Eijis' hand. Syuusuke wasn't in the room, where did he go? What's he waiting for, we gotta get him outta there now? Pulling a little on his arm Eiji shouted "NYAAAA! That hurts! NYYAAAA STOP IT! Eiji's face started to go from red to purple as Takeshi tried to pull him through the window.

Going down the hall and reaching the last door, Syuusuke opened it and looked inside to find a large lump covered in blankets on the bed in the far corner of the room. "Saaaa…Taka I need your help with something very important, you can sleep after." With a mumble of words that the sadist couldn't make out the shy teen peeked his head out from under his blankets.

"What's the matter Syuusuke, what's going on?" " Eiji got stuck in the tree" was all he said before turning and grabbing Takas' tennis racket and heading back to the room closest to Eiji, leaving Taka to follow. He got back to the window where Takeshi still stood trying to help Eiji. "I…don't feel…so good." He managed to splutter out like a drunken person. "I feel…so dizzy and I think…. I'm gonna…barf."

Syuusuke turned to Taka and pushed him toward the window while handing him his racket "Saaa, you better start pulling." He told them with a sadist smile plastered on his face and taking a step back. Taka grabbing racket went into a burning frenzy pulling Eiji through the window and into the room. Eiji landed on his head by the window with a big "ITAIIII!" Rolling onto his side he started breathing in gulps of air and finally sighing, saying "You guys didn't have to..." He was cut off when he was hit with a huge amount of pain coming from his head and ankle that was stuck in between the branches.

Tears erupted from his eyes as his head turned to the floor. "I...ITAI! ITAIII! Make it stop, it hurts!" "KIKUMARU!" The brothers shouted in unison except the ever stoic Kunimitsu who wore a face of deep concern for his brother. Bending down he looked to Eiji's ankle to see a pink and purple bulge starting to pop up. "We need to take him to a doctor, I think it's broken." "Waaaaaa...*sniff sniff* BROKEN?! No that can't be, aniki you must be wrong." "Let's hope, Syuichiro help me get him up." "Right!" They each put one of Eiji's arms around one of their shoulders lifting him up onto his one good foot. Bringing him downstairs and out the front door they stopped.

"Wait...how are we going to get him there?" Just as Taka was going to suggest something they heard someone come up the driveway. "Hey..." the voice started "what are you all doing standing outside for, it's hotter than blue blazes out today?" Turning to see who the unmistakable voice belonged to they saw their father. Hope swelled inside them but was soon dashed away when they realized they had to somehow explain Eiji's new injury.

Noticing no one else was ready to speak up Kunimitsu decided to speak, "We can explain on the way there but Eiji needs to go to the hospital." Pausing to watch his father he began again when he knew he wouldn't receive an answer right away. "We need you to drive us there now because Eiji is in a lot of pain." Seeing his fathers eyes refocus from the spot on Eiji back to him as he spoke. "Get in then...your mothers gonna freak, not that I'm Mr. Calm right now or anything." "yeah..." He responded as they all piled into the car. Setting Eiji in the middle seat in the back, he put his foot up so it wouldn't bump anything and with a tiny grunt he mumbled "What about tennis..." with an almost dejected tone.

Later they were all sitting in the waiting room closest to the room Eiji had been sent to hoping it wasn't as bad as it looked when they reached their destination. The brothers insisted that at least one of them go in with Eiji but Dr. Matsuo, the one who would be treating Eiji, said they would just get in the way of the nurses helping. Pacing back and forth their father was trying to calm down after Momo and Syuichiro tried explaining how Eiji had received the injury.

Accepting as he was to the situation he couldn't help the feeling his wife, Nanami, wouldn't be as calm about it. 'This...oh boy, this...and I was supposed to be watching them too.' Was all he could think as he was trying to figure out how to break it to Nanami. "Why...why...WHY? And Takeshi! I really don't know why you both didn't think this was a bad idea to begin with. I mean I know we all know how acrobatic your brother is but even so, CLIMBING ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP AND BACK DOWN! I thought you two would know how dangerous that is!"

Looking down in shame and guilt swirling in his eyes he looked but up to his father and with the most sincere tone he said, "I'm sorry Dad, I wasn't thinking, I'll apologize when I see him...really, I am, I am sorry." With a large as life sigh being released Kenta began with a softer tone, " Takeshi... I know you didn't mean for any of this to happen, I'm just frustrated I guess. Please don't think I'm angry with you, I shouldn't of raised my voice like that. However, you'll be the one to explain to your mother what happened from beginning to end. I think that will be enough, but I can't promise that your mother will be as lenient."

Finally standing still for the first time in what seemed forever to Kenta he plopped himself down into a chair. "Your mom is going to skin me alive when she finds out, you remember what she was like when Kaoru fell off the swing at the park when he was little...imagine that, except 10x's worse."

And remember they did, sweet Nanami was watching her children play on the swing set and jungle gym. Takashi was pushing Kaoru on the swing, and when Takashi spied a lonely tennis racket left behind by his brother next to his feet he picked it up. "Burning! Higher, Higher, Higher! Burning!" he yelled and the next push Kaoru went flying and lost his grip on the swing. Crashing to the ground everyone in the area heard a crack sound as soon as he hit the ground.

Nanami being bit of an overprotective mother sped to his side and looked him over with fever. Seeing a scratched arm she asked where else it hurt and said she had to see if it was broken. "No, mom I promise its not that bad, LOOK!" he said as he reached under himself and brought out a broken stick. Nanami was completely embarrassed but sighed in relief anyways, trying not to show the embarrassment. 'A stick...haha, it was just a stick' filled her mind but soon turned to a voice next to hers.

"Ah...Kaoru...uh, are you sure? Really sure you're okay?" Kaoru nodded with a slight smile and straightened into a sitting position. Nanami then turned to him, "TANAKA TAKASHI, WHAT ON EARTH WERE YOU THINKING!' Everyone's' eyes darted to poor Takashi who was beginning to cower under his mothers glare. "I..I...I'm really sorry mom, I swear I didn't mean it." He ended up not being able to play his favorite sport, tennis, for a whole week as punishment.

It really wasn't as bad since their father snuck him out of the house to play a quick game with his brothers, feeling bad for the kid but not as bad as he felt for Kaoru. His overprotective mother had decided to keep 24 hour watch on Kaoru just to make sure he was alright. If you asked him, he was the one being punished.

'Speaking of Nanami...' Kenta was getting an over whelming feeling she was going to find him or he was going to have to face her and soon he might add.
