So here's the next chapter. Pretty uneventful, I tried to add some humor but it didn't turn out so well…*falls into depression*

Anyways, please tell me what you think! Review, please!

And enjoy!

Chapter 2: Later...

"So what the hell was that all about?" Niou asked as he helped his doubles partner stand.

"Niou-kun, it's a long story," Yagyuu sighed.

"So tell me, we have all day," Niou crossed his arms, rolling his eyes in the process.

"No we don't, we have tennis practice in ten minutes," the bespectacled boy exited the room.

"Tennis practice…ten minutes?" Niou repeated. "CRAP! IF I'M LATE AGAIN, SANADA IS GOING TO KILL ME!"

Who does he think he is!? Kyoko stomped down the street to her own house which was about a twenty minute walk away. Deciding she needed to cool down, she whipped out her cell phone and texted one of her friends.

To: Akira

Where r u? up 4 some fighting?

The response came almost immediately.

From: Akira

Suuuure, i'm going to rin's, meet me there!

Grinning, the blunette shoved her cell phone into her pocket and took off sprinting.

"Sempais, you're late," Kirihara smirked as he caught sight of the doubles pair walking towards the courts of the Marui family.

"Sorry, Yukimura-buchou," Yagyuu apologized as he saw their captain approach them. " My hands were tied."

Yukimura nodded signaling that he knew what he was talking about.

"On the other hand," Yagyuu continued. "Niou, I can not vouch for."

"Yagyuu! You double-crosser!" Niou yelled angrily. "And after all we've been through! All the heartbreaks, victories, deaths, hangovers, etc!"

"Heartbreaks? Your hamster ran away what kind of heart break was that?" Kirihara rolled his eyes.

"Deaths? Your other hamster died, Niou, not your mother," Marui popped his gum with a smirk.

"Same difference, duh," Niou rolled his eyes as if it was obvious.

"Next person to roll their eyes gets a slap," Sanada suddenly growled. "Now everyone fifty laps!"

Stopping in front of the luxurious mansion her friend called home, Kyoko was about to knock on the door when the door was swung open.

Seigaku's freshman genius walked out of the house, pausing in front of the blunette. He took a good look at her before sighing and adding, "I don't know you right?"

Kyoko nodded. "You're one of Rin's weird friends aren't you?"

The blunette smirked, "Is that what she calls us? Well, I guess the answer is yes then."

"She's in her room," Ryoma pushed his cap down lower and walked away.

Nodding to herself, Kyoko walked into the house and ran up the grand staircase. Finally reaching her friend's room, she opened the door and to find Akira, Rin, and Reina.

"Hey Kyoko!" Rin yelled as she tackled the blunette with a hug.

"Hey," Kyoko attempted to pry the black haired girl off of her. Turning her attention to the youngest girl in the room, she asked, "Reina? What are you doing here? Don't you have tutoring are something?"

"Nah, Kirihara had tennis practice," Reina replied, not looking up from the magazine she was flipping through.

"So what have you been up to?" Akira asked as she texted.

"Nothing special, the usual," Kyoko lied easily.

"You wanna box?" Rin asked, the look on her face said she was bored.

"Do you even have to ask?" Kyoko smirked.

A couple of minutes later, the four girls had moved into the gym of the house, which was complete with a boxing ring.

"Don't hurt yourselves too badly," Reina warned as she hung onto the ropes. "You know how captain gets when we get injured before a major match."

"Yeah, whatever," Kyoko pulled the boxing glove on her hand.

Rin, who had already gotten ready, was staring at Akira who was furiously texting some one.

"Akira, who are you texting?" Rin asked curiously, leaning on the ropes to try to get a better view of the cell phone screen.

"None of your business," Akira glared moving away from the prying cat eyes of the Echizen.

"Fine, then," Rin laughed, turning around to face her opponent. Kyoko attacked first with a jab to the shoulder. Dodging it easily, Rin moved swiftly to the left, ready to aim a punch at Kyoko's right shoulder. Twirling around, Kyoko blocked it with her right hand and promptly punched with her left.
