6. Immuned or Unimmuned?

"Inui-senpai!" I called towards my 'superior manager'

"Ah, Kumiko-chan. Doushite?" he asked, while his glasses were flashing at a side,

"Anou, I have observed with Kikumaru-senpai or rather, Eiji-senpai. He... anou... lacks stamina?" I asked while I was observing Eiji-senpai playing against Taka-senpai,

"Good observation Tezuka-chan. But then, it is, after all, Taka-san, Eiji is playing against. But then, it is true that Eiji lacks stamina." he replied,

I sighed in relief while I went off. I was not wrong after all, because it seems Eiji-senpai already pants during the 3rd game. I looked at the sky, it was almost dark. I saw Inui-senpai going near me,

"Tezuka-chan, what have you observed so far?" he asked,

"Anou, Momo-chan is, anou, also the same, though, he is also bending his knee too much. Anou, Oishi-senpai... He is... also... the same, with stamina..." I said, bowing my head,

"Sou ka... Arigato Tezuka-chan. Well, I'll have to multiply their training by 1.004 percent." he replied while he adjusted his glasses while I nodded in response,

"Tezuka-chaaaan, nya!" I turned and saw Eiji-senpai, going near... Too late... He's glomping me already,

"Eiji-senpai?" I called,

"Nya! Tezuka-chan, I won!" he said, as he chew on his gum,

"That's great, Eiji-senpai. But then, sad to tell you but it seems,anou, Inui-senpai decided to increase, your training..." I said,

"NANI? Oy! Oy! Oy! But I'm having a hard time already Inui, nya!" he said as he stood up,

"It's with your stamina, Eiji. Too bad." Inui-senpai replied as his glasses shone,

"NYaaaa! Doushite?" he asked as he was grieving as well,

It must be too bad.

Normal POV

"Regulars run 20 laps." the ever-stern and stoic buchou of Seigaku ordered, while his younger sister was grinning much because she was thinking, 'Yes, only regulars' as she sat down on the bench,

"Saa, Tezuka, how about the managers?" said the sadistic tensai, who was still grinning,

"Also, the managers." announced Tezuka while Kumiko's grin stopped and she was crying while her tears dropped like waterfalls,

"The last one who'll finish the 20th lap, will drink this new drink of mine, the INUI DELUXE SPECIAL WONDERFUL JUICE!" announced the manager of Seigaku while he showed a cup filled with gray liquid, in which all (except Tezuka and Fuji) regulars' faces ashened,

"What is that?" the clueless Kumiko asked her senpai,

"This is the drink that I will make the last one who finished the 20th lap, drink. I made it so that it would make the regulars improve." Inui replied as he adjusted his glasses.

"NYA! Don't listen to Inui, Tezuka-chan! Nya! It makes us all throw up once we drink it, nya!" said Eiji, whose face was still ashening at the sight of the liquid,

"Yes, Eiji-senpai is right! Although Tezuka-buchou seems to be indifferent with it, while Fuji-senpai seems to like it." said Momo with exaggerated expressions,

"Saa, it's not that bad, after all." remarked Fuji, who was still grinning,

"Onii-chan?" Kumiko consulted her older brother, who was showing no emotion,

"I suggest you follow what they said." Tezuka replied to his younger sister,

"I see. Well, then, with what most of you said, I'll try to restrain from drinking the said liquid." she replied, as she was trying her best not to look at the liquid on the cup that her superior manager was holding,

"Well then, regulars, managers, start now!" said Tezuka as he also ran as well,

"HAI!" All of them replied while they started running,

"WAAAAAAA!!! Why do I have to drink that liquid! But then, I'm tied with Fuji-senpai!" our heroine protested as she was panting and crying at the same time,

"It's because you were slow. Mada mada dane." said Echizen as he panted as well,

"Urusai Echizen!" she protested towards her kohai, who was drinking Ponta, "But then, what can I do! I have low stamina! Aside from which, I have asthma!" she added her protests,

"Nya! What are we going to do, unless if Fuji would drink all of Inui's juice, nya!"said Eiji who was panting as well,

"Well, that cannot be refused now. But then, I would like Tezuka-chan to drink the juice even if just for a bit." said Fuji, who was grinning,

'He is torturing buchou no imouto-chan...' all of them thought except for their stoic buchou, Kumiko and Fuji, himself.

"Bu-but then, if I do that, won't I be drinking the juice with Fuji-senpai with only 1 cup available?" Kumiko inquired, which made Tezuka alarmed,

"Well, I suppose, but then I would also like you to try it." said Fuji with a grin,

"I suppose well then, there's nothing wrong with it." Kumiko replied as she was about to drink it while the other regulars were staring shockingly at her, and she drank it.

"Anou, Inui-senpai, it was too um, bitter or was it salty. Yes, salty." said Kumiko who was smiling at the least,

"See, she didn't faint at all." said Fuji who drank it,

"Sugoyi. Kakkoi." said Momo, Eiji and Echizen who were all awhed by Kumiko,

"Tezuka-chan is right. It was too salty." said Fuji who was grinning,

"I see... After all, I put 1kg of salt per 500mL of liquid," said Inui who adjusted his glasses and murmured, "Ieee... Data..."

Kumiko, our heroine, just smiled at response towards her friends, classmates, upperclassmen and underclassman.

Omake:

After the practice, Kumiko suddenly fainted,

"NANI? I thought Tezuka-chan was immuned to such?" asked Momoshiro,

"KUMIKO!" said Tezuka as he rushed to his younger sister,

"It seems Tezuka-chan is dehydrated," said Fuji,

"Nya?"

"Hai, look at her lips, it's dry." said Fuji,
