Chapter 4 : The First Battle
Kuroko enter the gym quietly. He sees two teens are playing basketball, one with red hair and one with dark blue hair. The teal headed walk towards the bench and sit beside Riko, who is still watching the match seriously. The girl turned his head to Kuroko's direction, surprised.
"Huh? You're so fast, Kuroko-kun!", said Riko to the boy beside her. He just turned his head and smiled to her.
"Well, I'm just suddenly don't want to go to the bathroom anymore, Aida-san. So after I stand in front of the door, I quickly go back here.", Kuroko said, still smiling to Riko. But, Riko sense that something is strange with Kuroko. 'Aida-san? Did he call me with that nickname before?'. But, Riko just ignored it and continue watching the match between the two teens on the court. They are playing a one-on-one match happily.
All of them, including Seirin and the other teen from GoM are watching the match on the court with a serious gaze. The match is going on fairly, with both of the teens are equal to each other and they seems don't want to surrender to each other. The score is still 0-0 after a couple of minutes. Each of them tries to shoot, but quickly blocked by the other teen, making them can't move around freely. Kuroko just gazed at the game with a really serious look.
"Okay, time-out! Boys, stop the game now!", Riko shout, somehow a little angry. Maybe she is too bored because she just see an uninteresting match with both of the sides are equal. But, deep inside her heart, she felt happy because Kagami can face one of the Generation of Miracle member in a one-on-one match.
"I believe that the two of you are really tired, right? Now, rest well when the other members of Seirin are practicing!", Riko said to the two teens who are still catching their breath. "And Kuroko-kun, don't practice with the rest of Seirin. I need you to join in the later match after Seirin have done their practice.", she continued when she turned her head to the small boy beside her. He nodded and sit on the floor together with Aomine and Kagami.
"Nee nee, how about me, Aidacchi?", Kise said, stood up from the bench. Riko's vein popped out after hearing that awkward nickname. Hyuuga, who's stand up behind Kise, quickly shot a death glare to Kise together with Riko, making him trembled and cold-sweated.
"Do.. do.. don't call me with that nickname!", Riko shouted in front of Kise, slightly blushing. It's the first time that she's called with a nickname like that. Behind the blonde, an angry glasses monster (author kicked) appeared, grabbing his shoulder hardly. That has completely made him shivered. His face paled as he sees the devil behind him.
"Even though she is a girl, you need to speak politely to your senpai, bastard. Do you want me to teach you how to speak to your senpai?", Hyuuga stared at Kise, who is shivering hardly. It looks like that Hyuuga has successfully entered his clutch-time because his girl- (author kicked) has been called with an annoying nickname by the model. He absolutely doesn't accept it, remembering that he is the boy- (author kicked) of Riko.
"I..I'm sorry, Hyuuga-senpai! Please spare my life!", Kise whined. It's the first time that he has met a person that can make him scared beside of Akashi.
"Heh, it looks like a déjà-vu for me..", Kagami smirked, watching the scene in front of him. He remembered the scene of Tsugawa, a guy from Seiho.
"Huh? Oi, why are you smirking like that?", Aomine said to Kagami with a confused face.
"No, nothing! Forget it.", Kagami still smirk at Kise.
Riko sighed. She looks at the three teens who is sitting on the court. Kuroko quickly turned his head to Riko. "By thw way, Aida-san, what s this match you are talking about?"
Riko sighed for the second time, turned her head to Kise's direction and to the three teens again. "Well, I want to do a two-on-two match, and the players will be Kuroko-kun with Kagami-kun and Aomine-kun with Kise-kun."
Aomine, who just drank his water chocked and turned his head to Riko. "WHAT?! WHAT THE HELL?! WHY SHOULD I FROM A TEAM TOGETHER WITH HIM?!", Aomine shouted at Riko, pointing at Kise's direction before. But, much to his surprise, Kise already sit nicely beside Kuroko, and Aomine is pointing his finger to the angry spectacled monster.
"Well, I think you need to be disciplined too, huh? Shouting and pointing your finger to your senpai, it's very impolite, you know.", Hyuuga smiled at Aomine. A dark aura can be seen emerging from his body. He crack his neck and his hands. Aomine shivered hearing the sound of the cracking neck and hands, making him wants to run. But, it's too late.
A sound of shouting full of pain can be heard.
The rest of them pray for Aomine's life, including all of Seirin. Except Kuroko, who just smiled behind Kagami.
A few minutes later, Seirin continue their practice. Hyuuga is back to his normal form too, leaving a scared Kise and Aomine behind. They just tasted the fear of Seirin's spectacled monster. Kagami laugh and Kuroko just smile looking at the two.
"Hey, who the hell is that monster?! I don't even know that Seirin has such a monster like that!", Aomine whispered to Kagami and Kuroko, not wanting that conversation to be heard by the others.
"Well, you know, Hyuuga-senpai is really scary. You had just tasted a bit of the fear, you know.", Kagami smirk, chuckling to both of them. The two have a goosebump, feeling that the monster is watching them.
"I.. I don't want to mess up with him again-ssu!", Kise whined, almost crying. Kuroko just smiled at him when he was turning his head to the court.
"Anyway, when will we start playing?"
The rest of the teens shake their heads to Kuroko. They don't have a slightest clue why should they play or when will they play. But, deep inside their hearts, they are very happy because they can play. In their heads, there is just 'playing basketball, playing basketball', or something like that.
Kuroko sighed and decides just to wait for a little longer. He is excited to play, too. But, he secretly holds something deep in his heart, like a secret plan.
"Okay, guys! Stop practicing! The other will use the court!", Riko clap her hands, meaning that the practice has end. The Seirin team nodded at her and walk to the bench, grabbing their bottles and towels. Unusually, they feel really tired because of the practice.
"Well, are you ready to fight, guys?", Riko smiled at them. They quickly stand up, Finally, it's their time to play on the court. Kise, Kagami and Aomine grin while Kuroko just smile looking at them. Kise look at him and smiled. 'It seems like Kurokocchi has been more smiling lately. It seems like he is really happy! If he's happy, then I'm happy too!', Kise smile widely.
But, he doesn't know the real reason why is he happy nor what is in his mind right now.
"We're ready all time, coach!", Kagami speak to Riko. She nodded, and pointed towards the court. "Okay then, line up there. Hyuuga, please be the referee."
Kagami, Kuroko, Aomine and Kise run to the court, followed by Hyuuga. Kuroko and Kagami are facing Aomine and Kise, and in the middle of them Hyuuga already prepared for the tip-off.
The rest of Seirin are preparing for the cheering and the scoreboard. Aomine and Kagami face each other for the tip-off. It looks like they are ready to face each other.
"Okay then, shall we begin?", Riko speak to the teens on the court. Kuroko and Kise nodded. She smiles, and then she blow her whistle. The ball fly, then Kagami and Aomine quickly jump and try to catch it.
"TIP-OFF!"
Unexpectedly, Aomine catch the ball and quickly pass it to Kise. But, suddenly a shadow appeared behind Kise and he quickly steal the ball.
"Wha.. What?! Kurokocchi?!", Kise shout, not believing what just Kuroko did. The teal head quickly run to the other side of the court – Aomine's basket, followed by Kagami, Aomine and Kise. On the edge of the court, Kuroko is screened by Kise, and Aomine is still screen Kagami. Kuroko looks around and stared at the hoop behind him. He turned his body and he jump, forming a shooting position. Kise and Aomine froze for some seconds and they quickly run to Kuroko's side.
Kuroko sees that Kise and Aomine are going after him. He smile, and when Aomine and Kise are close to him, he quickly pass the ball to Kagami, who's waiting behind Aomine. Kagami is a little surprised receiving the sudden pass from Kuroko, but he quickly go to the basket and dunk.
Aomine and Kise gather near their basket. They look at their opponent in front of them. The two is just too confused to say anything, thinking that actually Kuroko can pass the ball to Kagami like that. They smile and nod to them.
"Well, this is getting interesting."
"I won't lose to Kurokocchi!"
Kuroko smiled to the two of them, and Kagami just look at Kuroko's direction confusedly. It looks like Kuroko is really different. But, he turned his head to his opponents.
"Just think that this is a continuation match from the previous match, Ahomine!", Kagami grin widely. Aomine feel annoyed, and he quickly answer, "I will beat you, Bakagami!"
Kuroko and Kise watch the two aces fight and they laugh. At first, Kise looks surprised seeing Kuroko's laugh for the first time, but he smiled. 'It looks like that Kurokocchi has changed… But whatever, I'm really happy that he can smile or laugh, despite the fact that he was really gloomy yesterday!'
Meanwhile, in the bench, Riko watch them with a really serious eyes, especially to Kuroko. Hyuuga approached her and tap her shoulder.
"Coach, what's wrong?"
Riko shook her head. She turn her head to Hyuuga.
"No, I just.. think that something is wrong with Kuroko-kun. Like, he is different from the usual."
Hyuuga rolled his eyes and replied, "Well, that's true. I think that he is really different from yesterday.."
"Coach! Let's continue the match!", Kagami shout from the court.
Riko sighed, and she blow her whistle. The game continued.
After several minutes, the teams quickly improve each of their scores. They do dunks, shoots, blocks, passes, and many more to score. The score is 32-32 for both teams, and they keep shooting to receive the scores.
Kagami and Kise looks already exhausted, but Kuroko just continue running and running like he doesn't exhausted because of the game. He run to Aomine's side and quickly steal the ball.
"Ah!", the blue head shout. He didn't even notice that the teal head is approaching to him. Kuroko quickly runs to Aomine's basket, and preparing to shoot.
Kise and Aomine quickly runs to him, but unexpectedly Kagami can't run faster than them. Thinking that there is no other choice, Kuroko sighed and jump.
Hyuuga's, Mitobe's and Izuki's eyes widened seeing the scene. Tsuchida chocked when he is drinking his water, and Riko, Koganei, and the trio freshmen keep cheering Kuroko.
"Kuroko, try to shoot!"
"Go, Kuroko!"
"Kuroko-kun, you can do it!"
And some seconds earlier..
A sound of dribbling basketball on the court heard.
Kuroko has successfully shoot the ball.
"YATTA!"
Kagami shouted from the other side from the court He quickly run to Kuroko, following by Aomine and Kise. They hug Kuroko tightly.
"Congratulations, Kurokocchi!"
"Tetsu, finally you can shoot!"
"Kuroko, you're great! You are my best partner!"
Riko, Hyuuga and the rest of Seirin watch the scene on the court. The look very happy. They laugh and smile, except Kuroko. He just let out a bitter smile on his face, and he release his friends' hug.
"Thank you, everyone. But, I'm sorry. I must go now."
Kuroko looks at the gym's door to changing room. A figure with teal head like him stands, a bit trembled, and he holds a pair of scissors. Kuroko's lips formed a smirk and his eyes turned to red.
Kuroko turned his head to his friends and smiled, but he close his eyes so they can't see his red eyes.
"I wish that we can meet again soon, okay?"
Kuroko turned his head again to the figure and lift his right arm to the figure's direction, and a dark shadow begin forming in front of his palm. The court is very dark because of the shadow, so Seirin and the other can't see what's going on.
"I really envy you.. You have a lot of great friends.."
He begin mumbling with a darkened voice, and the shadow begin darker and bigger. The figure quickly draw his scissors and point it to the shadow.
"I wish to become you faster… Kuroko Tetsuya!", Kuroko – the Impostor smirks widely and he shot the shadow that's forming in on his palm. The figure – Kuroko throw his scissors towards the shadow.
And everything goes black.
A few minutes later, Seirin and the others wake up. They looks confused, mostly Kise, Aomine and Kagami.
"Huh? What are we doing here?"
Hyuuga begin speak after he stand up. He rub the back of his head. He looks around, confused.
"Eh? Why am I here?"
Riko speaks to the other members of Seirin confusedly. She meets Hyuuga and speak to him.
"I..think that I'm not going to practice today, didn't I?"
Izuki, Koganei, and Mitobe gathered to speak about the matter, so do Tsuchida and the trio freshmen. They speaks about the same matter : "What are we doing here?" or "Why do we are here in the first place?"
Hyuuga looks at the clock on the gym's wall and shout, "Huh?! It's already 4.45 p.m?! I am going meet Kiyoshi at 5.00 p.m! Coach, I must hurry, so please forgive me! I want to go first!"
Hyuuga quickly run to the changing room. The rest of Seirin except Kagami looks at their coach. Riko sighed and said,
"Okay, okay! You can go back, too. I don't even know why am I here in the first place.."
The rest of Seirin walks to the changing room confusedly. Riko take her bag and going to the gym's door. But before that, she looks at the trio on the court.
'Why are Kise-kun and Aomine-kun here?', she thought. "Anyway, all of you should go back, too. I'm going to lock the gym, okay? You can still leave from the changing room."
The brunette go out from the gym and close the door. A sound of locked door can be heard from the gym's door.
In the gym, only three teens can be seen. One with red hair, blue hair, and blonde hair.
"Why.. do they don't remember anything?"
Aomine speaks with a shocked face. He – they clearly remembers everything.
"Kurokocchi.. What happened to you?"
Kise whined with a very soft voice. But, in a court as quiet as it, his voice can be heard clearly.
Kagami doesn't say anything. Instead, he picked up a broken scissors on the court. Even it is broken, it is still sharp and can cut everything.
Suddenly, his phone rang. He quickly pick it up and sees the screen, and it says that there is a message received. He opened the message.
From : Akashi Seijuurou
Subject : Report
Report immediately about what has happened there.
Kagami smiled. He feel like Akashi just know what has happened. He quickly type all that happens, from the beginning until the end.
Okay, that's all for this chapter..
I feel really depressed because of my exams, even I can't write this chapter clearly.. ._.
Well, now, maybe you know the main character for this chapter is Kuroko – I mean, the Impostor..
And I know that this is a terrible chapter, and I bet you're a little confused about some things, so let me explain them:
1) In this fict, the distance from the gym to the rest room is quite far, and the distance from the gym to the changing room is farther, so it took some time for Kuroko to go there. And more precisely, it took quite a long time for him to take the weapons, since he put it in the deepest side of his bag, so he has some problems to reach them.. ._.
2) In this chapter, Kiyoshi is having a treatment for his leg and Hyuuga is going to meet him to speak of his condition, so he need to hurry (considering the time is just 15 minutes until the estimated time for him to meet Kiyoshi)
3) More questions? Review please?xD
Well, and I think I can't update this fict for quite a long time because of trips, exams and the other things.. :/
So, I think I will say it here:
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! /shot
And thank you if you'd like to wait for the next chapter, thank you very much.. ;w;
R&R please? ^^
