"So, how exactly do you intend on doing this? There's seven of us now…" Midorima questioned, fiddling with the teacup in his hands. Almost in unison, everybody looked at Akashi, who Kuroko presumed was the leader of the group,

"How about letting Kuroko choose if he's only good at passing, then we should allow him an extra teammate. Go on, have your pick, no one will be offended if you don't pick them."

This time, all eyes were on him as he glanced over each of the boys. "Well… I don't actually know any of your strengths or weaknesses… How am I meant to choose unless I have some idea of what you're capable of?"

Right. They'd forgotten Kuroko knew nothing about them other than their names, and their faces clearly showed it.

"Ah well…" Midorima started, before being cut off by Murasakibara "I'll play defense if you need me too…"

Midorima sent a glare towards the giant next to him, but then continued "My 3 pointers have never missed and never will,"

And each, in turn, said their strengths,

"I can jump…really well,""I played street ball when I was younger, kinda' stuck with me."

"I can predict others movements before they happen…"

"I can copy people's moves! It's so fun"

After contemplating each move, Kuroko finally spoke, "Okay, I guess I'll have Kise-kun, as he can copy moves which will be good… Akashi-kun's future predictions will be helpful too… and how about… Kagami-kun, as I can't jump very well at all…"

"Let's go, first to 25 points wins, okay?" Akashi said, eyeing his teammates before smiling just a little.

To be honest, Aomine, Murasakibara and Midorima were a little disappointed… Scratch that, very disappointed, that they weren't chosen, and however much he tried to hide it, Aomine's smirk faltered just a little when his name wasn't chosen.

Kuroko had been laying low for the first 5 minutes, doing only basic passes at first. He was planning on getting them used to small passes, ones they could easily block, before taking them by storm. The current score was 5-7 to Aomines team, and he was being so arrogant and narcissistic about it, which just assured Kuroko that what he was about to do would be a good thing.

Murasakibara had the ball, and once he had it, it looked almost impossible to get back, at least from Kurokos point of view with him being the height he is. While the purple giant was bouncing the ball from hand to hand, preparing to dribble the ball to the other end of the court, Kuroko had sneaked up behind him, hiding behind the others form, out of sight from the rest of his teammates.

3…

Breath, remain calm, prepare.

Clenching his fists, Kuroko inhaled and exhaled slowly, sweat dripping down his forehead.

2…

Twist on one foot, jump and place the other down.

Repeating the step he relayed in his head, Kuroko landed in a stance which allowed for the easiest movement.

1…

Push the ball straight from his hands, send it flying. Yet again listening to the instructions in his head, Kuroko pushed the ball from the taller man's hands, sending it away with so much force.

Everything seemed to go in slow motion, the ball whizzed across the court, flying straight into Kagami's hands, nearly knocking him over with the sheer power of the unexpected impact. After recovering, the tall redhead dunked the ball in one swift motion. When he broke his eyes away from Kagami's perfect form, Kuroko realized that, for the second time in one day, he was the center of attention, which made him excruciatingly uncomfortable.

"Please, could you stop staring, it makes me feel like I did something wrong…"

Regardless of his plea for them to quit the stares, they continued before Kagami spoke up "What was that… I've never seen anyone pass like that before…"

Shifting his eyes to his feet, Kuroko pondered on his answer. Truth be told, he'd never passed with so much force before, the only reason he had was to shut Aomine and his self-centered mouth up, hell he never realized he could pass like that.

"Well, I don't quite know how I did it, but it was a pass that I'd never done before …"

"Well, whatever it was, it was AMAZING! I didn't even realize you were before you whacked that ball out from Murasakibaracchis hands!" Kise exclaimed, looking the shorter bluenette up and down "How did you do that, anyway, you know, the disappearing thing?"

"I just used misdirection…"

"You should teach us all how to do it!" Kise beamed at the others, snapping them out of there mesmerized states "It'd be useful during matches, right Akashicchi?" Replying with a faint nod, Kise continued talking "I wanna' be invisible, what do you say, Kurokocchi?"

"I thought you guys would be the ones teaching me, but sure, I'll teach you how to use it a little" Kuroko replied, smiling the cutest of smiles any of them had ever seen.

Something happened in each of the boys chests when they saw that. A pang of realization hit them and that was that. Each shared a glance as if to check if the unspoken decision was unanimous. Kuroko may have just gained six new pursuers, which would certainly not the be the ideal for him.
