Chapter 3 Female Regular

It was my service game against Arai. I sliced and ace all my serves, making the match so far 1-0. Arai's serve isn't strong nor fast, so it was pretty normal like last time. All I had to do was hit the ball near his legs, and he won't be able to return the ball back to me. This went on for another 10 minutes since I wasn't really trying at all, and I defeated Arai without letting him win a SINGLE point. It was disappointing beating the same person twice and not get a kick out of it though, but it was funny to embarrass him in front of his friends~ That's what you get for underestimating me, Arai-baka!

Arai was sweating from bending his knees to TRY to return the ball back at me, but he just tired his muscles out without realizing a thing. I went off the court and gave the racket back to the guy I borrowed it from. The next thing that happened was that the tennis coach, Sumire Ryuzaki, and someone acquainted with my parents, grabbed me up in the air. "Everyone, line up!"

All the guys, including the regulars, lined up in front of Coach Ryuzaki and me hanging from her grip. Ugh, what did I get myself into? I was struggling to breath while the boys were sweat dropping at the scene before them. Coach Ryuzaki dropped me on the floor, but I fell on my feet like a cat. What happened, or more like said, was very surprising. "This girl, Hikaru Kami, will be a new tennis REGULAR on the team. Please treat her well."

"...WHAT!?" Geez, they're loud when they wanna be.

I stared at their reactions. It was mostly filled with shock and unbelieving, with some frowning slightly like Tezuka, or eyes popping out of their sockets. Coach Ryuzaki and I were trying to hide our grins from our faces, but we couldn't take it. She was grinning like a baby getting a new toy, and I had a small victory-grin.

"Why can a girl be in the BOY'S Tennis Club? Isn't she suppose to join the Girl's Tennis Club?" Tezuka, had asked a rather blunt question.

Is it just me, or is that boys get more sexist when they get older? Coach Ryuzaki glared at them all, and I was grateful for her shutting them up. "Kami here is stronger than most of you non-members, and can rival all the regulars any day."

"I'm sorry Ryuzaki-sensei, but I can't see someone like her rival with the regulars." A few of the non-regulars had said out loud, while the regulars were thinking of something.

Inui, the manager of the team, then came up with a brilliant idea that would solve the conflict by one thing and it only...TENNIS!~ "How about Hikaru-san pl-"

"Call me Kami, my dad goes by Hikaru-san, and no honorifics. It's too formal for my taste~," I had interrupted Inui when he was talking.

"Ehem. Well, Kami can play 3 of the regulars if anyone has doubts, is that alright with everyone?" All the boys agreed to the suggestion to finally solve the problem.

Coach Ryuzaki nodded her head in approval while I was spacing out. Why did he suggest THAT!? I'm too lazy to play even one regular, yet he says I have to play THREE! THREE I TELL YOU! "-mi-chan! Kami-chan, do you agree with this?" Coach Ryuzaki snapped me out of my thoughts.

*Stammers* "U-um, y-yeah! Why n-not."

"Well, tomorrow after school, bring your tennis equipment. You will be playing a match against Momo, Kaidoh, and Ryoma." This ended the day with various comments of over-confidence from sexists non-regulars, and a very pissed off me.

*Smirks* Let's see how well these boys can do against me tomorrow. Hehehe, can't wait~

~Timeskip~ Next day after school on tennis courts~

Every member of the Boy's Tennis Club was there, with a few other spectators like fan girls and two reporters (Guess who). The first person I was playing was Momo. We shook hands as a friendly gesture before the game. "Please go easy on me, Momo."

*Smiles* "Same for me, Kami. Rough or smooth?"

"Smooth." The racket spun and showed 'rough'. Mou~ I guessed wrong.

"I'm serving first. Good luck Kami! You'll need it."

Momo was getting ready to serve, and I was watching his every movement. Hehehe, nothing can escape my eyes~ I can see your movements Momo~ He used his Bullet Serve the first game and had trouble rallying with me. "Go Momo-sempai! Keep it up, you could beat Kami-san!"

Tch, pesky freshman, but I'm also his age except I just skipped a grade~ I haven't lost yet though, hehehe. "Momo!"

"Hm?" Momo looked at me confusingly.

"Time for the REAL games to begin~" I wanted to use ONE of my tennis style. He could actually give me a nice challenge, but he's still too early to beat me~ The serve went past Momo's face and got stuck on the fence.

*Smirks* "I haven't even warmed up yet~ Please make this enjoyable Momo-kun." I saw some veins pop out from his head. Oya~ I got him mad.

I had won uses ace serves, and I didn't really do anything special. He couldn't return any of my serves, and the whole time his racket flew from his hands when I barely used 50% of my strength. Momo seemed to get more serious because he used Dunk Smash on me. I returned it with double the power and an irregular spin, making it fly to the wrong side. It's time to get serious~

The game went on making it 5-1, in favor of me, and Momo was already tired from running around from my irregular returns. It was now Momo's service game, but I still got Love-40. However, what shocked me was that Momo was able to predict my last irregular hit by cross-hitting the ball where I won't be able to react on time. Woa~ He could be trouble for me in the future, but still too early. In the end, I won 6 games to 1.

"Your really strong, but maybe not as strong as Echizen though. Good luck on your next match with Kaidoh."

*Nods* "I plan to win. It was a good game."

After a 10 minute break from the 25 minute match with Momo, I had to play Kaidoh who had a lot of stamina. Hm... I was thinking what I should do next to mess with Kaidoh. Maybe I should stop his nerves and muscle movement? That could be fun~

Kaidoh chose 'rough', and the racket spun around to show 'smooth'. I decided to serve first, since Kaidoh already saw my match with Momo that showed ONE thing I could do to my opponents for fun. "Are you ready Kaidoh? If yes, then let the games begin~"

This time, I use the same method I did with Momo on Kaidoh. The scoring so far was 4-0 with me leading, but then Kaidoh was able to get use to the style I was using. He scored 40-15 with me at match point, but he was gonna get the upper-hand if I didn't do something. Time to use my technique~ Finally for some real fun! "Huh Kaidoh, not bad, but you won't win."

My special serve, Angel's Arrow, looked like I never even hit the ball, and it just landed on the service box without bouncing. Kaidoh and the rest looked surprised. "W-what was that?!" I love it when they react like that~

*Smirks* "Angel's Arrow is the name, but it's for me to know and you guys to NEVER find out~"

I left them to their thoughts and won the whole match with a perfect score of 6-0~ Next will be Ryoma, that guy will be troublesome for sure. In a while, we were facing each other on the courts. He has only seen one of my own techniques, but not the rest. This time for sure, I seriously can't joke around. I've heard Ryoma won 3 US Junior Tournaments and is the son of Samurai Nanjiroh. He might make me use THAT if I get pushed to the corner.

When I put my hand out to shake hands with him, he completely ignored the gesture and put on that cocky smirk. "You were able to beat Kaidoh-sempai and Momo-sempai, but don't think you'll beat me."

Oya~ He really is too cocky and over-confident for his own good. Someone has to take out that pole up in his ass. "Same to you too."

"Mada mada dane, Hikaru-san."

"It's Kami-sama to you, Echizen. Let the games, begin~"

Kuro: WOW~ THIS IS THE LONGEST CHAPTER EVER~!

AznLove: I thought you were going to write about ALL the matches?

Kuro: Well, I wanted to add some suspense.

Hikaru: *Smirks* At least I KNOW I won't lose to Echizen.

Ryoma: Well, you can start celebrating your loss against me soon, Hikaru-san.

Glaring Contest~

Momo: Mah Echizen, we won't know if a GIRL beats you for once. It would be funny won't it Eiji-sempai?

Eiji: Right, nya! Ochibi needs to be taught a lesson~

Oishi: B-but, won't that m-make Echizen-kun lose his d-drift?

Momo: Oh yea! I heard he loses to his old man too!

Nanjiroh: Oya~ There are pretty girls here!~

Kuro: GET OUT PERVERT!

AznLove: *Sweat drops* Can we get back to the point and finish this, I need my beauty sleep.

Kuro: Okay~ let's do it~

Everyone: READ AND REVIEW!~~~~~~
