(Monday- 8:25 a.m)
(Outside Seigaku tennis court)
Ryoma POV
I just blinked. Are all my sempai talked about me? But it seriously make the sempai-tachi really shocked after saw a person they not expected to see. I looked around and saw sempai-tachi were stood like a stone in front of him. It was an awkward silence.
"Sempai?" I broke the silence. I sweat dropped a lot. Did he do something bad? Or he come really freaking late to school?
"Echizen, why you here." Momo sempai asked. Or should I say that that not really a question to me. But now I'am really confuse with Momo sempai's not really a question. I mean I'am the student of Seishun Gakuen right? Of course I came here to school! What just get into these sempai's head? I try figure it out.
"Huh? What are you talking about, Momo sempai?" I asked. I could see all the regulars looked a little bit happy, sad and… "Why Kikumaru sempai is crying, Momo sempai?" I pointed at very unlike Kikumaru sempai that he known before. The bouncy and happy go lucky sempai looked so down and sad. Well, crying included. I think this time must be a really big problem that can cause Kikumaru sempai cry, right?
"Ochibi…Sob! Sob! Why you leave us like this? Are we do something bad to you?" Kikumaru sempai surely looked so down. I rose my eyebrow. What just he say? Leave them? Leave where? I turned to the person beside the cat looking sempai, Oishi sempai. He tried to comfort his best friend as I see. Okay! This is getting weird! Really weird. I looked at the other sempai. Fuji sempai release large of his dark aura. Kawamura sempai just closed his eyes. I can see he looked very sad about something. Tezuka buchou as usual, had unemotional face. Inui sempai just staring at his green notebook and the book was closed. That was unlike him not writing something in it, right? Kaido sempai just hissed but in lower voice than usual. So, I decide to find out what a weird thing happen here!
"Sempai-tachi! Can you explain what is all about?" I asked calmly. I glared at Momo sempai since he was the only one who recognized my existence here… However, my afford was useless. Momo sempai only blinked at me. I sighed. I tried to ask again but the result was the same. I think I turned into a transparent boy.
I lost my temper. I need to find some way to make these sempai recognized me! I think for a minutes. Something across my head. I smiled 'Yeah! That should work.'
I walked nearer to Momo sempai. I rose my leg up to the same line as Momo sempai knee. Then, I kicked it. SMACK! That make Momo sempai fall down and the other sempai stopped their daydreaming thing s or whatever what it things.
"Ittai! What was that for, Echizen?" Momo sempai cried for painfulness. I chuckled. It kinda funny watching Momo sempai like that.
"Echizen?" Momo realized what have he just said. He widen his eyes so do the other sempai. "O…Ochibi? Is t…that you?" Kikumaru sempai wiped his tears with his both palms. "Do you see what I see, Oishi?" Oishi just nodded. "Yeah I see it too, Eiji. It is really Echizen.","This is out of calculation. Is Renji give wrong data? But 99.9% Renji never give wrong data… That's weird." Inui sempai corrected his glasses position.
"Saa…" Fuji opened his eyes and stared at me. Now, I really don't understand what happen. I sweat dropped. Suddenly, someone walked toward me. When I looked at him…
"Echizen, explain!" Tezuka buchou asked with his firm voice. "Explain what buchou?" I closed my eyes while waiting for my buchou answer my kinda stupid question.
"Explain why you here, Echizen Ryoma! You suppose to transfer to that stupid Rikkaidai school, right? I… saw you wearing Rikkaidai uniform school. Wh…When I ask y…you say you don't know me! That's hurt Echizen! You said that you school at Rikkaidai! Then, that baka Kirihara called you to meet him at somewhere to go to school together! What just get into you, Echizen? Why yo…you…" Momo sempai unexpected crying in front of me. He can't continue his sentence since he was so sad, maybe… Inui sempai suddenly interrupted our conversation. "90.9% Momo said was right. Yesterday, Renji call me said that you go to Rikkaidai to fulfill the register form to be a student of Rikkaidai Fuzoku. Since Renji is my old friend, he must not being lying to me. So Echizen, can you explain it to us?" Inui asked with his flat voice.
I can tell you, they were serious what just they said. But one thing I can't understand… Since when I transferred to Rikkaidai? Since when that Bakaya sempai called me? Since when I wearing Rikkaidai uniform school?
Since when…wait a minutes! All of that describe to Ryosuke, right? So that's mean that… Momo sempai bumped with Ryosuke and asked for a ride, but Ryosuke refused. Of course Momo sempai would shocked with Ryosuke appearance and surely Ryosuke said that he don't know him. Of course Momo sempai would tell all the regulars about that since he such big mouth sempai! So as the result, like this. By mistaking that damn brother as me… Everyone just crying and sad about me for go to other school. (Wow! You such a genius boy, Ryoma! He can solve the problem with just a short time! Hoho…)
I just nodded to myself and ignored all the regulars that standing just in front of me. Suddenly I heard a voice calling me.
"Echizen! Echizen! Echizen, are you okay? Echizen!" Momo sempai tried to wake me from my day dreaming. He grabbed my upper arms and began to shake me (Remember in chapter 11 when Kirihara shacked Ryosuke? That how Ryoma feel right now. )
"Momo sempai! Dame dayo! You keeping me dizzy!" I exclaimed. Momo sempai release his grip on my arms and sighed "Glad you are okay." I just blinked.
Once again, I feel someone calling my name or should I say my nickname. "OCHIBI! I missed you! Where are you last week? Why you go to other school? Did we do something bad to you? If yes, we didn't mean to! We sorry! Sob! Sob!" Kikumaru sempai tighten his hug at me like I was gonna die tomorrow. My face turning to blue "Kikumaru… sem…pai… can't… brea…th!"
"Eiji! Stop it! You are making Echizen dying here!" Finally! My live saver… Oishi sempai tried to stop Kikumaru sempai from hugging me and Kikumaru sempai… "Yadda! It been a long time since I see Ochibi! So I wanna hug him with full of my heart nyan~!", 'That's unusual!' unfortunately for me, he hugged me tighter, tighter and tighter than usual. I fell I wanna die any second now….
I tried to escape from Kikumaru sempai death hug by pushing myself away from him but fail. I think I lose my temper again…
"Eiji sempai! Please let go of me! Its hurt." I said or more to whispered but loud enough to make Kikumaru sempai to hear it. I hope it will work although only 40 percent this method will working by calling them with unusual name.
Slowly the grip of Kikumaru death hug became weaker, weaker and weaker. When I turned to him, he already released his hug. He surely looked pretty shocked to me. "Ochibi, what just you call me?"
Should I answer that question or not? "Nanda mo nai. You must mishear Kikumaru sempai." I'm said like nothing happen.
"Uso! You called me by…" All regulars just waiting for Kikumaru continue his words. I just rose my eyebrows. "By my first name… Eiji. You called me that just now right?"
Everyone widen their eyes and turn to me. "You called him that Echizen?" Momo sempai asked me. So do the others. "I just wanna he release his hug! His hug is killing me."
But for Kikumaru sempai its different. He think that me calling me that were for more like best friend forever. I can tell you because now he hugging me AGAIN! "Sempai! Dame! You hur…ting…me!" I tried really hard to get out from this neko sempai but fail…
The other side…
Fuji sempai just watching that scene. He smirked. 'I must can't let the same thing happen like the last time. They just forget about they gonna tak about with Echizen. But not this time!' Fuji decided to walk toward them.
"Minna! Should now we say about why he here? Should he transferred to Rikkaidai?" Fuji sempai make his sadistic smile. I hate that smile! It remind me of someone. It remind me of Yukimura sempai.
Everyone just realize what actually topic that they gonna talk about. The regulars nodded among themselves and began to stare at me. I shivered a bit. Why Fuji sempai just remind them about that? It look like Fuji sempai really wanna know my secrets and that NOT gonna be good. I rather being hug by Kikumaru sempai than being in this situation.
"Saa Echizen. How you gonna explain this? We really wanna know." He smiled again. I gulped. I really don't wanna answer that question.
"Souda Echizen! You still don't answer our question!" Momo sempai said.
"How can he answer it since you are too noisy, Momoshiri! Fssh~" Kaido sempai patted on Momo sempai right shoulder.
"What have you just say, Mamushi? You wanna fight?" Momo sempai obviously lose his temper so quickly and ready to fight Kaido sempai.
"That's what I waiting for, Baka!"
"What have you just say, Mamushi?"
"Baka!"
"Aho"
"Bagero!"
"Guys just stopped it!" Kawamura sempai tried to break their disagreement but unexpectedly fail.
"Huh! Its harder than it thought!" Kawamura sempai tried to figure it out how to stop his kouhai from their pointless, useless and endless disagreement.
"Taka-san! The racket." Inui sempai handed a racquet to Kawamura sempai and he took it. "BURNING! Momo! Kaido! STOP FIGHTING! BURNING!" His personality change.
Inui sempai quickly write his new data into his book. "Iie data. This is how when Taka-san…" Inui sempai just mumbled to himself about his fresh and new data.
.
.
.
"If Momo said that when he saw Echizen and Echizen said that he don't know who is Momo. Why? " Oishi really in the deep thought.
"Oishi! It could be that Ochibi had accident and he had amnesia. He just remember a little bit about us and he don't remember what school he attend and wear Rikkaidai uniforms then after looking at Momo, he just remember that he was from Seigaku!" Kikumaru really making Oishi more, more and more worry about me.
(Remember. We still in Ryoma POV!)
"EHHH! Hounto Eiji! What kind of accident that Echizen get? Is that bad? When? Where?" As expected from the mother hen… Seriously where Kikumaru sempai get that idea? I just sighed. I tried to control my temper from all those noises and annoying voices.
Only Fuji sempai and Tezuka buchou remind silence.
"Tezuka, they sure are noisy, right?"
"Aa."
"Would you stop them?"
"It useless."
"How do you know that? At least give it a try."
"You try Fuji."
"You are the captain. You should."
"Yudan sezuni ikou!"
"Saa."
Okay! Tezuka buchou and Fuji sempai are disqualified from being quite person. I just stood there like a stone.
.
.
.
Still in the same situation. Noisy and annoying.
.
.
.
Now, for the third time, I temper was up into the maximum. My face became redder, redder and redder. Still controlling my temper but fail. I couldn't take it anymore!
I really wanted to yell. I took a deep breath "URUSAI SEMPAI-TACHI!" Or should I say I already yell.
All the sempai stop fighting, stop writing, stop worrying, stop talking and start looking at me. "E…Echizen…" Momo tried to speak but…
I stared at Momo sempai "Momo sempai! The person that you saw this morning is NOT me! It doesn't mean we have the same look that we are the same person! Think first before spreading the news like you did just now! It making something worse. Understand that, Momo sempai!" I said with my very dangerous, creepy and firm voice. Momo sempai just nodded. I could see he was scared.
Then I turned to Kaido sempai. "Kaido sempai! Stop picking a fight with Momo sempai! You making me annoy! Plus! It not nice to argue with the person that same age with you although that your natural to picking a fight. But try to fight in a right time! Not time like this!" I looked at Kaido sempai reaction. Le stared at his feet. "Fs…Fssh~" I know he was shivered a bit.
"Kawamura sempai! Its good that you tried to break their useless fight." Kawamura sempai just smiled at me. (He not holding the racquet.) "However! Try to keep control you emotion when you holding you racquet. You already lose some of your power just on that 'burning' things. Use some strategies to them not just pushing them away apart like them. Sometime you can use psychology. Psychology recently 80% will work. " Kawamura surely sweat a lot. I dunno why.
"Kikumaru sempai! Please! I'm begging you to stop hugging me into death! You know, if every day you hug me like that my skeleton will crack and crushed into pieces and can't play tennis again. You wanna that?" I silently glared at that bouncy sempai. He quietly shook his head "Gomen Ochibi. I didn't mean to." His voice was down. "I'm not done yet with you Kikumaru sempai! You know that Oishi sempai was super worry mother hen? Why you said something that definitely not true to him? That's not a good friend that keeping spreading not really true rumors. I don't know where you get that but stop saying I have amnesia, Understand? " I raise a little bit my voice on the last part making Kikumaru sempai shivered. "O…Oishi…Ochibi is scary than Tezuka…" he hide behind Oishi sempai. Oishi sempai just nodded.
"Oishi sempai. Although Kikumaru sempai was your best friend, it doesn't mean that you have to trust whatever he said. Sometime it just a lie! Sometime it right. Its depend on what situation we are in. One more thing, try to control about your worry. Sometime it creeping me out." I stared at Oishi sempai. He was shivered "Ec…Echizen… Are…You okay?" He tried to ask and I just ignored him.
"Inui sempai. Stop taking data on everyone else. Sometime they don't like what have you did. You might lose friend with that." A short advice for Inui sempai should work right? I mean now he stop writing…
I took a deep breath and continue "Fuji sempai! I know you saw everything in the changing room on that day. Just keep that secret okay. Its my secret. I'll tell you guys when the time is right." Fuji shocked a little bit about my statement. He once again opened his blue eyes "When you gonna tell us, Echizen?" Fuji said with his not really calm voice. In thebottom of his heart, he was a little bit of scared of my fearness.
"Soon."
"When?" Fuji sempai asked again.
"Saa~" I answered. Since when I use that phrase? Oh well… Mada mada dane…
"Last but not least… Tezuka buchou." Everyone gulped when hear that name. 'What he gonna lecture this time? ' Momo sempai though.
"You are the captain right? You should stop this annoying things that happen. Everyone respect and trust you as a buchou including me. So use that trust to do your responsibility as a captain. At this time, we should being practice right now for upcoming tournament. We just waste our time here, isn't it, Tezuka buchou? " I rose my head to looked at his stoic face.
"Yudan sezuni ikou, Echizen."
"You too." I walked away toward the tennis court leaving them alone. My temper was gone. Now Im feel like Im not Echizen Ryoma the Prince of Tennis but Echizen Ryoma the Captain of all the agent and spies. As they say, Echizen Ryoma was the scariest captain they ever had…
END OF POV

Everyone just stood like a stone after being scolded by their own kouhai. They can see a large amount of dark and creepy aura surround Ryoma.
"Ochibi sure is scary when he mad… Nyan~"
"Way to scary, Kikumaru sempai." Momo said.
"I just think for a moment that Echizen is the other person." Oishi added.
"Iie data."
"I just let my guard down."
"Fssh. I promised I never make Echizen mad again."
Everyone just nodded for Kaido statement.
"You are right for once, Mamushi."
"Fssh…" They have no energy to fight after being lecture by Ryoma.
"I think we can hired him as a buchou next year, Tezuka. Since he was definitely like you just more scarier." Fuji just chuckled bitterly. Honestly Fuji shivered when being scolded by Ryoma.
"Aa."
"I just think we have two Tezuka buchou here." Kawamura said.
"Minna, go practice or 100 laps for all of you." Tezuka demanded.
"Hait!"
They quietly followed Tezuka said without complain.

"What wrong with the sempai?" Katsuo whispered at Kachirou.
Kachirou shook his head. "I don't know. But back then, I saw Ryoma-kun scolding sempai tachi. It was very scary!"
"Ryoma-kun scolding sempai? Why?"
"Dunno. Lets ask Momochan- sempai then."
"No need to! I with 2 years ex…"
"We don't need your explanation Horio! Lets just ask sempai."
.
.
.
"Momochan-sempai, What happen? Why all the regulars looked so down? And Ryoma-kun was surrounded by dark aura…" the trio asked at Momoshiro.
Momoshiro glared at the trio and spoke "Don't make Echizen Ryoma mad. You will know what it feel if make Echizen mad…"
.
.
.
That was only answer before Momoshiro leave the trio.
"What he mean by that?"
The trio just can't figure it out what Momoshiro just said…
