The Two Vice-Captains
After the whole thing with Hyotei was dealt with, the matches started again, only the Hyotei regulars were there as the audience. This time, it was the two fuku-buchous against each other.
Shiki and Minu both shook each other's hands and went to their positions. As Minu threw the ball up in the air, she looked towards Saori. She turned back just in time to hit the ball perfectly into Shiki's court.
"15-0!"
Minu expected that Shiki would be irritated, but Shiki was just calmly staring at her. It sort of annoyed her. Minu served once again, but this time Shiki ran up to it and softly hit it back. Minu ran towards the left just to slam it towards the middle of Shiki's court. Minu thought that she would get the point again.
"15-15!"
When Minu heard this, she was surprised. She looked towards Shiki's courts only to see her smirking. She looked around her own court, and she saw the black outline of a tennis ball in her court. Shiki had hit a strong, fast ball that she couldn't see.
Minu turned back towards Shiki and the both of them stared at each other, an unspoken challenge between their eyes. The two of them though identical thoughts.
'Game On'
~x~
"4-5! Switch courts!"
Horio groaned. "It's already been 30 minutes! I bet with my two years of tennis, I could've won this in 10 minutes!"
"Shut up Horio! You couldn't beat them with 10 years of tennis!" yelled Tomoka.
The two of them shut up quickly when Tezuka glared at them.
"5-5!"
Both Shiki and Minu knew that Shiki would win this game. Minu was just trying her best to win it even though she knew she would lose. Shiki respected that Minu wouldn't forfeit so she returned the favor by playing her hardest.
"7-5! Game Rikkaidai Kobayashi Shiki!"
~x~
The last game was between the captains, Mina and Saori. The two of them fought hard, and it lasted one hour, but the end was inevitable. Seigaku's Saori won the match. Saori promissed her team that when they got back, their training would be tripled.
After all the matches were finished, everyone left to go home.
At the gates, Niou and Shiki were standing together. As they walked by, Saori also walked by with Minu. The two pairs were facing opposite directions, but as Shiki and Saori passed each other, it felt as if time was slowing. The two of them glanced at each other before time sped up again, and the two of them walked away.
AN: Okay. I know this was horrible and very, very short. I had no idea on what to write about, but I knew that I wanted to finish this part of the story. Can anyone give me some ideas on what to write about? Please review and give me some ideas. Thank You~
