The pace of the entire match had completely flipped. Seirin were rapidly starting to catch up to Touo, seemingly without any logic, it was as if this was a different game entirely.
Kuroko felt at peace with the change in pace. It was as if he was back in Teiko, when he first joined the first string. No one could notice him, not even a glimpse could be seen by Touo or the cameramen, it was as if the ball was moving on its own in Seirins favour.
As Hyuuga scored another 3 pointer Touo quickly gathered up their thoughts. Their playing style had reverted back to how they were in the first quarter, but it seemed to be more effective after the short break they had.
"Tch.. Tetsu.." Aomine grumbled as he dribbled the ball. "You always know how to piss me off."
"Is that so? Well then I guess this match has already been decided. We've won." An icy chill ran down Aomines spine as he heard a menacing voice whisper in his ear, the owner of said voice completely out of sight. Before Aomine had any time to react, the ball was taken from his hands and were already in Kagamis grasp. Everyone on the court was shocked.
'The ball can't just teleport into my hands?! How did this get here?!?! ' Kagami was quick to come back to his senses though, as he managed to get in a swift dunk before everyone else was out of their shocked state.
Kuroko smiled as he saw everyone's reactions. How amusing it was to see his prey look so shocked and confused at something that was in front of them the entire time, they just couldn't see it. He truly was turning into a phantom.
Kuroko made another swift steal, but stood lingering at the half-court line, dribbling the ball to make himself known to Touo and his teammates.
"Tetsu how cocky could you possibly get? Don't go thinking you can shoot from half-court like it's noth-" before Aomine could finish his sentence, the sound of a swish from the net echoed across the stadium.
"If I'm unable to pass to anyone, I'll shoot. And I'll make it in. Don't underestimate me Aomine-kun, I'm stronger then you think.
