"Kise-Chan come here ." Nanami Watanabe dragged the newbie with her to the basketball court . " You are gonna meet your new teammate." Her senpai announces happily .

"Already !" She just got accepted to the basketball club . Normally people would warm up gradually as she started practicing with them as well as engaging into casual talking about fashion , cakes and cats .

"Of course silly why the wait ?" The older girls friendliness stuck her by surprise , long one the doubtful look and calculative eyes she was met with before replaced by a high energetic girl .

"Nanami stop , or you will scare her ." Came another voice, this one serious deeper than hers and Nanami's but belonged to a female still , with hint of amusement .

A tall lean girl with a long straight black hair pulled into a ponytail "Kamiya Haru ."

kamiya was quite the opposite of Nanami , even though they are childhood friends and classmates . She appeared cold on the outside.

"I believe you are the newbie ,Nanami texted me about ." "Hai ! I am kise Ryouta ." "I know who you are , your popularity exceeds you Joker-san ."

"As you see , there is only two strings in basketball female club since it's not as popular as the boys team , and it's not highly ranked as them ."

"As you know the volleyball female team is the star of club alongside basketball male club , while ours is one of the lasts ."

"But it's not like we are not doing our best ."

"Our best ? Who did indeed skip practice for shores sale ."

While the two friends continued bickering Kise's eyes were sharply focussed on three others girls playing with each other , Thier moves , Thier frames , Thier pace .

" May I join ? "

"You are not even wearing your sport attire " One of the three girls said .

"I am new here , I just joined ." Kise pouted instinctively at the three girls , who looked at thier captain who stopped talking questioningly .

Nanami nodded at the girls reassuringly , she also was curious about the joker's abilities , her green eyes shined with wonder .

As kise held the ball , she flew past them

"Wow ! " "That's cool !" Kise smirked with arrogance , she really likes being the center of everyone's attention .

"Not bad !" Clapped a quite impressed Nanami and said after a pause smirking " for a newbie that' it ." Kise raised an eyebrow "Girls !"

as the three girls suddenly changed , becomes one hundred percent serious , Kise didn't have time nor the speed to react , the ball was stolen .

Kise's eyes widen , but she was pleased with the surprise ,.

"Let's make a challenge Kise-chan ."

"A challenge ?"

"Let's bring this team to victory and wipe volleyball of the map ." Nanami laughed evilly .

" I don't think it's possible ." Kamiya commented at her friend's ridiculous idea , Nanami ignored her .

" What do you think Kise-chan up to the challenge ? "

Kise until now , said nothing simply regarded her new capitain with a curious stare. She liked her , her senpai is interesting , and knows what to hit in her to make her existed , The younger blond never felt so much variety of emotions before and it's sending pleasant tingling sensation all over her body .

" It's a deal Watanabecchi !" Grinned kise widely .

"Cchi?" Watanabe Titled her head questioningly. "I call people I like and respect with cchi ." Explained kise .

"Bring it on baby. " Grinned back Nanami , and all her new teammates smiled welcoming .

She feels like she will like it here .

In the end , Kise couldn't help but sneak around to the guy's basketball club just to watch , which was pretty difficult since she was to noticeable to blend with the background . However, the blue haired Dai-chan was nowhere to be found , which made the girl lips form a pout .

She saw another familiar guy however , really gigantic with purple hair and a bored expression , that's the guy setting behind her in class ? What was his name again ? Murasakibara Atsuchi .

She didn't really have anything to do with him whatsoever and never bothered herself to socialise with him , he was famous as the huge guy who had an unhealthy obsession with sweets , whenever her class decides to do something for school events , they buy snacks beforehand for Murasakibara so he could get on board with them .

She always thought he was just a weird .

The guy who often if not always wore bored face , easily blocked every attack possible no matter how strong or fast it was , not letting a single ball touch the hoop .

Now he is not just some weird guy , He is super cool weird guy . And that's how Murasakibara leveled up to Murasakibaracchi .

" Take Mido-chin ."

The green haired four eyes guy from the same team as her classmate , took the ball and easily throw from far away Three-point field goal .

'seriously who could do that !' The blond's eyes widened , those

guys are something !

The next day , kise decided to ask Murasakibara about the basketball team at lunch . But she couldn't contain herself anymore , she tried mind you but when she saw him already in class head leaning on his desk waiting for the first lesson to begin , she greeted her classmates with a cheerful hello , took her books , set on her chair and turned to the boy behind her .

" Nee, nee Murasakibaracchi !"

The boy glances up briefly with half closed eyes finding the blond too shiny form his eyes .but nodded at her to continue .

"You are also from basketball guy's team right ?"

He nodded quietly .

"Telll me more about team A ?"

The purple haired boy just stared back at her , too lazy to answer her and why shoud he anyway .

"And as a thank you ... I will give you this instead." She gave him hidden bag of cookies from her pocket .

"We are six ." Murasakibara already opened the small bag and took his first cookie.

"Aka-chin is a bosss"

Oh it's probably the red haired boy , the guy's screamed leader all over .

"Mido-chin is weard "

It's the green haired glasses dude , ' in what way he is weird the guy looks pretty normal .'

"Shou-chin is a bad boy "

'so I should worry about this sou-chin .'

"And mine-chin is a pervert ."

'Mine-chin ? I don't know who is that and I don't wanna know .

"Oh and kuro-chiiin ...is kuro-chin "

'Kuro-chin ? Who is this kuro chin maybe it's the navy blue haired guy .'kise doesn't say more , still staring at him waiting for something more elaborate than that , but He didn't say anything afterwards , in fact it seams like the guy is more focused on eating the snack that talking to her .

She turns back because the first period is about to start pouting , she is more intrigued than before . This isn't helping at all , she didn't even get real names but some strange nicknames except for Akashi's since he told her himself that's it .

"Murasakibara stop eating this instant ." The teacher yelled at tall boy . Which made all the class erupt in soft laughs and giggles .

Before she went to her club she decided to check on the boy's basketball club again . She couldn't help it though the team A was another level of playing , never in her life did she enjoy watching people playing as she did now .

As she quietly opened the door a hand grabbed her shoulder and yanked to a hard chest pressing against her back 'what the...'

"Well , well look what we have here a babe ." A guy with silver hair muttered and licked his bottom lip .

She smiled fakely and took his hand as it was trash , And pushed it away . Sometimes it's hard to play it calm , especially in this kind of situations when people don't know their bonderies . don't get it wrong , she can deal with them most of the time , smiling politely and excuse herself . The problem is the forceful guys whom doesn't take a hint or know when to give up even you throw a direct no at thiet faces , they would think you are playing hard to get .

"Awwww don't be like that babe." The guy snorted.

When she was about to reply with as much venom . "Haizaki-kun you are standing on the way ."A voice came right next her , 'was the guy here before ? ' didn't even feel the slightest presence as he approached them .

"Oh my god kuroko ." The silver haired guy jumped away .

"Haizaki-kun , Akashi-kun won't like it if we come late ." This sent shivers through Haizaki '

"Hai...Hai !" And they went in together not before saying something like I will see you around kitten to Lise .

Taking a deep calming breath , kise steps outside .

A week later , Kise already became familiar with all the moves she saw her teammates , Turned up practice was enjoyable, and the atmosphere was quite friendly something she never felt in her former clubs

It's new , it's intriguing, it's exciting ...

"Any plans later ?" Nanami asked

"Not really ." Her captain grins "good you are coming with us then !" "Huh! Where ?" " You will find out soon ."

The room was dark , and when her eyesight could discern the ray of lights , seven Shadows appeared from darkness wearing what it seems like black cloaks ,

The seven Shadows set on torches and bought masked faces .

"Kise Ryouko , now that you are here there is not going back ."

'do they follow some kind of cult ?'

"You have to sing this with blood."

One of them handed a paper scroll .

The other gave her a cup with read substance that smelled of ...tomato sauce . She did as they said without blood of course .

" Now one last thing .. "Surprise ." They shouted simultaneously when Nanami switched on the lights , The room was filled with balloons and desert ."we thought we do a welcome party since it's our tradition if someone join us in the middle of the season . " nobara Mizuki one of her teammates and from the same grade as her smiled as she took off her mask .

"You good ?"asked Nanami waving her hand in front of kis's face. "Haru-chan I think we broke her ."

"You think !"
