Hotaru's POV

I kept my face emotionless as I negotiated with Kunimitsu. I can finally play Inui again. He has gotten better, according to the data, but still… he can't defeat me yet… the money I will get… My eyes turned into money signs.

"Ruru-chan!" I snapped out of my reverie. "Hello… onii-san." I whispered, maintaining my emotionless expression. I glanced at the people around us through my peripheral vision, making sure they hadn't heard. It wouldn't be fun if they already knew…. I smirked inwardly. I turned my attention back to Inui-nii. "I will defeat you. I have all your data." Inui-nii's glasses flashed, smirking. I snickered inaudibly, and replied, "We'll see who has the better data, we'll see." I wonder just how much better he is now?

"Game start. Imai to serve." I tilt my head back, arched my back, and swung at the ball, shooting it across the net. "15-love" I glanced at Inui-nii from under my cap. He looked shocked. But I could still hear him mutter his favorite phrase, "Iie data" under his breath. "Remember that? The move you learned from me, the Super Sonic Serve?" The crowd began to murmur. I served again, this time he reacted faster and managed to hit it, but it still went into the net. He looked at me and asked, "You added an extra spin to it and made it faster didn't you?" I replied, shaking my head. "Nope, I only added a spin on that one, it wasn't any bit faster than yours. You haven't been practicing have you, Inui?" He blushed slightly. "30-love" The rest of my service ended with me winning 40-love, although he had approved somewhat. Then he began to serve.

"Sadaharu to serve." He served a slice serve; a purposely missed. This time, he smiled at me, saying that "Based on my data slice serves are your weakness." Inwardly I laughed, but I kept missing his serves. When it was my serve again, I changed it up, knowing that Inui-nii's data on me said that I was unchangeable. Oh please. After winning my service, Inui-nii served slices, and I purposely missed all but the second to last one, making it seem like I was getting used the serve. I heard Eiji mutter to Oishi that, "Ruru-chan's losing her touch," my temper flared and I thought to myself, no more playing games. On Inui-nii's last serve, I hit the ball at Eiji's head, and he barely managed to dodge it. "Who's losing who's touch?! I'll have you know that I've been playing around since the very beginning, since INUI here thinks he can beat his and Renji's data tennis SENSEI. And Eiji," I hissed, turning towards the said person, "Invention #9873 lets me hear the quietest things. You do remember that I was the one who invented the drink that even the so-called immune Shusuke Fuji can't drink. Inui's juice was based off mine." Shit. I lost my temper… whatever. I took out my camera and started to take pictures of the stunned crowd. At my next service, I completely crushed him, and when he tried to use slices again, I returned them easily. I completely annihilated Inui-nii, showing no mercy, and won the match.

"Oh," I said after shaking his hand, "Your biggest weakness is that you always think you're data is the best, which it isn't because mine is, and that although your data is good, you forgot about the basics I taught about data tennis, which is that data isn't all there is to it; you have to be able to play tennis as well, Inui-nii." The crowd's jaws dropped. I smirked, and I began to take pictures of the crowd. I looked back at Inui-nii, and snickered. "And you thought you could beat me. As if."

After glancing at Inui-nii's stunned face, I turned away to walk towards the other courts, seeing that they were finished as well.

Sorry about the late chapter! I don't really know tennis very well (even though I love Prince of Tennis) so if you have anything that you think should be changed, please tell me! Also the next couple chapters are going to be pretty short, in comparison to my previous ones.
