SailorStar9: Well, Chapter 6 is up, this is Chapter 7 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?
Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and the pairing.
Chapter 7: You're All Ridiculous
"Isolation." Kise mused, Touou having substituted Aomine into the game.
"In order to allow special players to move freely, the remaining players gather to one side." Midorima explained. "There are several reasons to use this technique, but in this situation, it's exactly what it looks like."
"In other words," Kise agreed.
"It's a one-on-one between both teams' aces." Midorima finished the sentence.
"So, who'd make the first move?" Ami wondered as Kagami and Aomine faced off. "As I thought," she breathed when Aomine made the first move, bypassing Kagami easily and slipping past Hyuuga under the basket.
"So high!" Midorima was stunned to see Kagami intercept the ball before Aomine made the shot.
How'd he jump so high from that position? Even Kise was shocked. "Aominecchi…" he muttered, after the buzzer signalling the end of the second quarter went off.
"He's completely unbearable." Midorima remarked. "He's slow, like he has no desire to play."
"But out of the six of you, wasn't Daiki the first one to enter the Zone?" Ami reminded.
"It can't be helped, but they couldn't afford to sub Kuroko out in the first quarter without Aomine." Midorima remarked, seeing Seirin had benched Kuroko at the start of the third quarter. "I can't believe they can endure this."
"You're right." Kise agreed. Playing against Aominecchi without Kurokocchi is too hard. But when I consider the rate of his growth, I get the feeling something's going to happen. He can do it.
"When it comes to movement, speed is not all about maximum speed." Midorima explained, seeing Aomine was preparing to shoot despite being defended by Mitobe and Tsuchida. "Your acceleration from zero to max, and your deceleration from max to zero. Agility, how quick you are at your feet. Even among the Generation of Miracles, Aomine transcends the rest of us."
"Wait, is Daiki busting that out now?" Ami exclaimed in shock as she watched the match continued, Kagami having intercepted the ball before Aomine made the shot and Aomine stopping Seirin's chance of a fast break by cutting in on Kagami. "Are you two seeing what I'm seeing?"
"If you mean Aominecchi going 'street basket mode' on Kagamicchi, then yeah, I'm seeing it too." Kise nodded.
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
