Hello Everyone!
Thanks to those who review and favorite my sotry, it was very much appericated :3
Now futher a due... HERE IS CHAPTER 2!
Normal POV
Almost a week has gone by since the big announcement of the joint training camp. Today is Friday, and the Seirin team meet up at the gym for their usual after school practice. As they enter the gym, they see Riko, unsually happy.
"Hey Senpai, why are you happy?", Kagami asked, with giant question mark over his head. The team look at her as well, and she indeed look happy. Apprently she was on the phone with someone. Riko turns towards her team, and she smiles while putting her pointer finger on lips to shush her team. More question marks appear over the team's head, all except Kuroko and Hyuuga.
"It's strange to see Riko happy, unless... WE HAVE A PRACTICE GAME WITH A MIRACLE TEAM AGAIN!?", Koganei yelled and cringe. Hyuuga slapped the back of his head, so he could knock sense into to him.
"Shut up", Hyuuga said angerly.
"Then why is she happy then?", Izuki question Hyuuga. He sighs, knowing how stupid and clueless the team is, beside Kuroko. At least he seems to know whats going on with Riko. Then all of the sudden Riko hung up the phone.
"You guys forgot already", Riko sighs. She too question the team's stupidty as well.
"Senpai, who was on the phone then", Kagami ask again. Riko then puts on the most loving smile that she puts on. The smile was even bigger than the one she made when the team won Winter Cup.
"That Kyoshi's mother... Kyoshi should be arriving at the airport in about an hour", Riko annoucnt. The whole team's face lit up with joy. They totally forgot that Kyoshi will coming back from America today. Most of them were too excited about the training that will happen tomorrow.
"YAY! Kyoshi/Kyoshi-senpai will be coming back today!", the entire Seirin, aside Kuroko who cheered softly.
"Ano...", Kuroko softly speak up. The entire team look at their phantom player.
"Yes Kuroko-kun", Riko ask.
"Shouldn't we head to the airport to see Kyoshi-senpai arrival", Kuroko replies, pointing at his watch on his wrist.
"That's right. We need to head to the airport as possible", Hyuuga annouce. The entire nods with agreement. They all gather their stuff and exited the gym. As the team exit the gym, Hyuuga notices that Riko was falling behind.
"Meet at the train, I'll be right back", Hyuuga told the team. The team nods, and continued walking leaving Riko and Hyuuga slightly behind. Hyuuga walks towards Riko, and stood by her side.
"What's wrong", Hyuuga ask, as he slow down his walking speed to match hers. Riko gasp at the sudden action and looks up at Hyuuga with smile. Riko shooks her head at him.
"Nothing is wrong, I'm just happy that we are able to play together again. I have to really thank Akashi for doing this for Kyoshi the next time we see him"
"Of course, I'm glad he's not crazy anymore"
Both laugh and as the walk they notice the Seirin was waiting for them at the front of the their school. All whom have a big smile on their face. Knowing that they were always together no matter what happens. They are a team, and no one should take on the burden alone.
"Come on Captain. Coach. We are waiting for you", Izuki yells for them to walk faster. Riko and Hyuuga eyes widen, and chuckled a bit as the run towards the team, not wanting to keep them waiting. Especially when the Iron Heart, Kyoshi Teppei will be returning to play with the team once again.
Aiport (Still Normal POV)
As the entire Seirin walks towards the airport entrance, all of them couldn't stop talking about the arrival of their founder during the train ride to the airport. They are just so happy that Kyoshi is coming back. Hyuuga was getting little irrated, that the team was getting too loud as they walk through the airport.
"Guys... Keep your voices down. Hyuuga is getting irrated", Izuki whisper to the team. The team look at Hyuuga was in front of them, his back facing. Eventhough his back was facing towards them, they could feel his deadly aura, and quickly shut up. Riko sighs, as they continued their walk, then all of a sudden... They are loud and rather annoying voice.
"KUROKOCHII!", a certain Kaijo blonde scream from behind them. The team froze at the sound of the voice. Even Kuroko cringed at the sound that he knows all too well, since his second year in junior high.
"It can't be...", the entire team thought, aside from Kuroko. The team turns towards the voice, and their assumtion were correct. But, there is also another surprise for them. Stood behind the blonde were 4 well known, also most feared basketball players since they made there debut in their middle school years. They are the Generation of Miracles.
"Kise, you're being too loud", Midorima Shintaro, former shooting guard of Teiko and current SG of Shutoko. His lucky item of the day was frog floaty.
"Neh, Kise-chin is annoying. Makes me want to crush you" Murasakibara Atsuhi, former center of Teiko and current center of Yosen.
"Awww, all you guys are mean. I just wanna see Kurokochii", Kise Ryota, former small foward of Teiko and current ace of Kaijo.
"Leave Tesu alone Kise. You're fucking annoying", Aomine Daiki, former power foward/ace Teiko and current ace of Toou.
"Daiki... Language, we are in plublic. And Ryota, please refrain from being loud", Akashi Seijuuro, former point guard and captain of Teiko. He's the current point guard and captain of Rakuzan. These 5 prodigies, and their phantom player, Kuroko, make up the GOM. During the time in Teiko, they are the most strongest and the most feared team, who won 3 consecutive national wins in their time. As the GOM walk towards them, Kise who notice Kuroko, and quickly runs towards.
"KUROKOCHII!", Kise yelled once again, who jumps at Kuroko. Kuroko quickly steps on the side, and Kise falls face first into the payment. The Seirin team sweatdrop at the action of blonde. No one understands Kise's obsession with their phantom player.
"Kise-kun, please refrain indecent acts", Kuroko complained, glaring down at the fallen player. Kise then has fake tears that appears in his eyes. The rest of the GOM approach the team. Seirin can still feel the strong aura that surrounds the entire freshmen. They have still much more present than them. Aomine wrap his arm around his former's light shoulder.
"Hey Tetsu, long time no see", Aomine greeted, with a huge smile on his face. Kuroko, of course put on his usually expressionless face. But, Kuroko was indeed happy to see that same smile Aomine always had when they were in the middle school.
"Nice to see you too Aomine-kun, but please you are too heavy. It's also nice to see, Midorima-kun, Murasakibara-kun, and Akashi-kun", Kuroko greeted his fomer light and his former teamates. Aomine let his arm off of the phantom player.
"Nice to see you too Kuroko. Today's lucky item of the day is a frog floaty nandayo", Midorima replies, holding his lucky item with right hand, while fixing his glasses with his left taped fingers.
"Kuro-chin, you're still short the last time I saw you", Muraskibara lazily respond, holding a bag full of maibo and chips. Murasakibara pats Kuroko's head with his free hand. A tick mark appeared on Kuroko's forhead, and slightly swatted his hand away.
"Please stop calling me short Murasakibara-kun", Kuroko angerly said.
"I can see you are well Tetsuya", Akashi intervened. Kuroko turn towards his former captain and smiles. He's happy that the old Akashi is back.
"Yes, I'm doing well Akashi-kun", Kuroko replies. Then, all of sudden Kise joined in, complaining that Kuroko didn't greet him. Kuroko sighs, already given up. Kuroko approches Kise, who was still on the floor and pats him on the head.
"Good to see you too Kise-kun", Kuroko finally greeted the copy cat player. Kise's eyes lit up like a christmas tree and jumped on Kuroko, and hug his small body while rubbing his cheek against the side of his head. At the scene, everyone thought, including the GOM, thought Kise looks like a pup who master came home. Kuroko jabs his finger tips into Kise yelp in pain and lets go of the player. Kuroko ask where is Momoi, Aomine says that she needed to go help out with her family.
"Anyways, why are you guys here", Kagami asked, looking at the GOM with a glint in his eyes. Especially at Aomine. It was no suprise that he and Aomine have a quiet a big rivalry against each other.
"We are here to see Kyoshichii come back", Kise replies, with his usually annoying cheerful voice.
"Kyoshichii?", the Seirin thought in unison, except of Kuroko and Kagami. Both know the reason why he uses the suffix -chii. But no one bother asking why, they choose to ignore the weird nickname
"How to you guys know anyways?", Hyuuga ask.
"Remeber, I was the one who sent Teppei to America for his knee surgery", Akashi informed.
"That's right", Riko said, of course Akashi would know. Seirin awee at unision, remebering the reason why Kyoshi was able to get his knee surgery almost immidently.
"Anyways, he should be here soon nandayo", Midorima spoke up. Riko, then all of sudden remeber something, she then whispers to her team. Which left the GOM with a question mark over their head. Then, the entire Seirin approach Akashi, who raised an eyebrow with amusement. All of them, surprising Kuroko and Kagami bows in front of him.
"Thank you so much Akashi-san/Akashi-kun", the Seirin thanked in unision. Akashi's eyes widen slightly, then soften at the gesture.
"No, I should be the one to thank you Seirin team. With your teammate work, I wouldn't be able to face my 'other self' and revert back to my old self again. This the least I could do", Akashi replies, whom have smiled at them. The GOM's eyes widen at Akashi. It has been awhile since they seen Akashi smile. They last time they saw that smile was back in 2nd year of Junior, so its been awhile. An occur thought that appears in all the GOM's head. It was them who brought them back to their old self. The one's who enjoy basketball, and the one Kuroko will always approve. aLl of them are happy, including Midorima and Muraskibara, that Kuroko found a team that will treasure him, not as a teammate, but also a friend. Then, the unexpected happen. The entire GOM, aside from Kuroko, bowed back to the Seirin team.
"Thank for you all you've you done", the entire GOM thanked. The entire Seirin team were shocked and confuse why there the ones to be thanked.
"You guys don't have to thank us", Hyuuga said.
"Yea, if it weren't Akashi, we won't be able to play with Kyoshi once again", Riko explained.
"But you Seirin team brought us back to our old self nandayo", Midorima countered.
"And we've been totally asshole to you guys too", Aomine said after.
"You were always an asshole, Ahomine", Kagami snickered, which of course made Aomine mad.
"WHAT YOU SAID BAKAGAMI!", Aomine yelled. Both pulled each other's collared shirt of their uniform. Then, Kagami head got slap from Riko and Aomine got his ear pulled by Akashi.
"Daiki/Kagami... We are in plublic please don't make unnesscary problems", both Riko and Akashi said in unision, with a hint of irratation in their tone of their voice.
"Neh Kuro-chin", Murasakibara laziy called for Kuroko. Kuroko turned with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes Murasakibara-kun", Kuroko replies.
"You got yourself a good team", Murasakibara thanked, who then opens a maibo, then lazily chews it in his mouth. Kuroko was then suprirsed that even the childlike Muraskaibara can also give respect and give compliments once in awhile. Kuroko smiles back at Muraskibara and bow slightly, showing thanks.
"Kurokochii you do indeed have a good team. But next time we won't lose again", Kise said with determined.
"Neither am I, Kuroko nandayo", Midorima said after.
"Tetsu, next time we face on the court, I'll win for sure"
"I'll win, even against you Kuro-chin"
"Tetsuya, I won't be easily be defeated next time. So be prepare"
Kuroko then looks at his former teammates, and smile that all of them changed for the better. All whom have revert back to their old selves. Eventhough Kuroko doesn't really show it, he's happy that he can see the same fire in all their eyes with determination.
"Hai, I accept ally our challenges", Kuroko replies.
"Don't go easy on us", Riko said.
"We will win next time", Hyuuga said after.
"All these challenges, I'm glad I came to Japan", Kagami said. All of Seirin has fire in their eyes, that they too won't be easily defeated. Even going agaisnt each GOM once again. They know that they all have to work hard so they can stay on top once again.
"Don't forget about me too", a familiar voice called out. The Seirin and GOM turn towards the familiar voice. Coming out from the tunnel, was an all too familiar face, Iron Heart, Kyoshi Teppei, whom he was carrying a backpack and large duffle bag.
"Kyoshi-san/Senpai", both side shouted, aside from the GOM. The Seirin team ran towads their team's founder and jumps in his awaiting arms. Tears of joy had appear on some of the players eyes. Who wouldn't be after not able to see their player for a month since Winter Cup.
"I missed you guys so much", Kyoshi chuckled. Then, Hyuuga punch him on the shoulder.
"Itai... Hyuuga", Kyoshi complained, rubbing his shoulder.
"Took you long enough", Hyuuga replies, but then smiles. As captain, he's glad that he can play with the team once again.
"Senpai, I can see you look oaky", Kagami said, with a huge grin on his face.
"i'm fine and well. Let's all go to Maji cause I'm starving", Kyoshi nods with agreement. Everyone nods. The GOM approaches Kyoshi and welcomes him bakc to Japan, and told him that they are ready to face him next time on the court.
Maji Burgers (Still Normal POV)
Both Seirin and GOM sat in different tables, and of course Aomine and Kagami ordered the most and try to compete who can eat the most. No one can understand how they can eat that much food. Both of them apprently have bottomless stomach. Then, Kuroko was the last to order his food, or rather just a simple milkshake.
"Tetsu, sit with us. It would be like old times", Aomine called. Kuroko then turns towards his current teammates for approval, Riko smiles and nods. Kagami was about to complain, until Hyuuga slaps the bag of his head. Kuroko then sits next to Aomine. The table was set Kise sat across of Aomine, Mursakibara sat across from Kuroko. On the outer side was Midorima and Akashi. Midorima was in between Kise and Aomine, and Akashi was in between Muraskibara and Kuroko. Akashi then turns towards Kuroko, who notice that he has only got a vanilla milkshake.
"Testuya, you should eat more. You still have that unhealthy habit of just ordering just a single vanilla milkshake", Akashi complained. Kuroko, who just sips on his beloved vanilla milkshake, trying to pretend that he didn't hear it.
"Aka-chin is right, here have some", Murasakibara agreed, and he gave Kuroko 2 banana split. Then Aomine gave Kuroko 2 cheesebuger, while Kise gives Kuroko water, so he could stay hydrated.
"Ano... I can't eat this all", Kuroko complained.
"You need to eat Kuroko. Stop being stubborn nandayo", Midorima countered. Kuroko remainds emotionless, and only stared at his tray full of food that he knows he can't finish. The entire team Seirin just stares at the action.
"They are treating him like a little kid", Kagami whispers to Izuki. Izuki nods with agreement.
"Well, Kuroko needs to eat more", Kyoshi said, taking a bite of his burger. Hyuuga took a sip of his cola, and then replies.
"You're right on that. But I never seen the GOM act like this before. Especially towards Kuroko",
"I think it's kinda cute when you look at", Riko pointed at the table at the side of them. The team turned towards the table, and food immidently dropped out of their mouth at the sight they are seeing. Apprently, Aomine was nudging a cheesebuger on Kuroko's lips, while Kuroko is make big fuss about. Then Midorima stood up, and took Kuroko's milkshake from his tray. Kuroko eye's widen.
"Midorima-kun, please give me back my vanilla milkshake", Kuroko said, trying to reach for the vanilla milkshake that was hovering over his head.
"As I said before Kuroko. Stop being stubborn and eat more. I'll give your milkshake if you finish your plate of food", Midorima said, walking back to his chair, milkshake in hand. Kuroko then turns towards Akashi with puppy dog eyes. Akashi shook his head.
"No Tetsuya. Shintaro is correct, you need to eat more. Drink the water Ryota provided for you. After you're down, then you could have your milkshake back", Akashi lectured. Kuroko looks down at his tray of food that he must consume. Kuroko took the cheesebuger that Aomine was poking him with still, then sighs. He slowly took a bite of the cheesebuger.
"Never expect for Midorima to be so motherly", Koganei whispered to his team. Midorima then glares at the car face player.
"I heard that nandayo. I only did it because Kuroko is being stubborn as always", Midorima complained. Both Seirin and GOM sweat drop.
"Tsudere", both sides thought.
"By the way, Kyoshi here's your plane ticket for Miyagi tomorrow for the training camp", Riko gave Kyoshi the plane ticket.
"Thanks Riko", Kyoshi thank, taking the plant ticket from her. Hearing training camp and Miyagi at the same sentence, the GOM turns.
"You Seirin are going to the Joint Training at Miyagi tomorrow", Kise ask.
''Yes we are Kise-kun", Kuroko replies.
"YAY! I'm going to spend a week with Kurokochii", Kise cheered.
"Wait, you're going too?!", Kagami shouted.
"Hai", Kise said.
"Ewww, then I'm going to see Bakagami then", Aomine complained.
"Not you too Ahomine", Kagami cringed.
"It's not like I want to go. But my team as well are going to Miyagi for the training camp as well", Midorima enters the convestion, while fixing his glasses with his taped fingers.
"My coach is going to kill me if I don't go tomorrow", Mursakibara said, while eating a his last ice cream sundae.
"Well, I guess the entire GOM are seeing you guys tomorrow", Akashi announced. The Seirin's jaw dropped, well, this was unexpected. But, all of them are happy they are able to face strong oppnents, espcially the GOM.
"Ano... May I have my vanilla milkshake?", Kuroko jumped out of no where. The both sides screamed, except for Akashi who only flinched as the unexpected phatom spoke. Midorima looks down at Kuroko's tray, and he indeeds finshed his food. Midorima then passes Kuroko's milkshake back to him. Kuroko excitedly took the milkshake from his hand and continues enjoy the contents inside.
"We are gonna have an exciting week", Kyoshi said, as he finishes up his food. Both side contiued to talk to each other about the training camp tomorrow. But little did they know, a certain someone will also be returning as well.
Well that's the end of Chapter 2! Please reiview and share your thought of the story. See you guys next week!
