PLEASE READ!

Ok I usually do this at the bottom of the page, but I want to make sure EVERYONE read this. I have 2 months left of class, I was supposed to put this chapter up before February but I had and still have an essay every 2 weeks. For 2 different classes. Anyways this semester end next month and I should have more time to post. I really regret choosing this season to write this on… season 2 would have worked better.


The Karasuno Volleyball team sat down around the Television, refreshment were passed around from a mini cooler Hinata had found earlier while jumping around.

Hinata is shown looking down with his fist clench. "My first and last official match of junior high… my team was defeated."

The camera moves around to portray both Hinata and Kageyama.

"My opponent was the "King of the Court"

Hinata looks up a determine expression on his face, "I'll get my revenge against that 'king'!"

The show goes to the future, "That's what I pledged before starting Karasuno High School"

Hinata's face expression transforms from exited to dejected, "But…"

"W… Why is he here?!" Hinata exclaims, as the camera introduces Kageyama figure.

Out of nowhere Tanaka started laughing, "So much for his plan of revenge…pwahahaha!"

Hinata glowered at Tanaka who glared back and successfully intimidated Hinata. While Hinata and Tanaka had their staring contest, the rest of the people watched the introduction.

Hinata and Kageyama are shown staring at each other. "Why… why is he here!?" Hinata complains mentally, "Maybe he's just a lookalike," Hinata hopes.

The program goes to Hinata mental picture of Kageyama, the lights are dim and the background is dark. Kageyama is in his Kita-Ichi uniform, he looks enrage, and he opens his mouth and says, "What are you doing here, anyways?"

The Kageyama in Hinata's mind continues to mock Hinata, repeating statements from the tournament. Hinata moves Kageyama's window over and the camera is train on him.

"NO, no. There is no mistake,"Hinata thinks. The camera zooms in on Tobio. "This guy is Kageyama Tobio!"

"I met you last year…" Kageyama comments, "but I don't know your name"

Unknown to everyone, Hinata looked downwards as his expression changed. "Even though I thought of him as a rival, he did not even remember my name…"

"M-My name is Hinata Shoyo… You probably don't remember the team you beat in the first match!" Hinata replies while waving his arms around.

"I remember you very well," Kageyama interrupts Hinata.

Tobio mind flashes back to their match. "Your well-developed physical agility and reflexes… but he doesn't put any of it to good use"

"What do you mean I don't put my body to good use?!" Hinata yelled outrage.

"It means what I said you dumbass!" exclaimed Kageyama.

"Well, sooorry for not knowing how to use my body, in case you haven't notice I hadn't played before!"

Everyone was watching their argument like they would a tennis match.

"Well, I did not know that! I thought you spend all you middle school years fooling around!"

The tension in the room rose, everyone was at their edge of their sit when Tanaka smacked both Hinata and Kageyama.

"Settle down!" he screamed, "You guys are upsetting Kyoko-san."

Hinata and Kageyama sat back down sulking.

"What? You wanna fight?" Hinata says while adopting a martial arts position.

"You were lousy!" Screams Kageyama in anger.

Hinata is dejected, soon he gets his spunk back.

"D-Don't make fun of me!" he exclaims, "sure, we got slaughtered by you guys," the camera closes up on Hinata, "Next time, I won't lose!"

"I'm pretty sure there won't be a next time," Kazuhiko thought.

"That's what I pledge to myself, so what are you doing here?" Hinata asked Kageyama, "How can I defeat you if we're on the same team?"

The video flashes to Kageyama.

"Shouldn't you be at some other school with strong players?"

"Hey!" Tanaka yelled out, "We are plenty strong!"

The Karasuno members around him nodded.

"Why didn't you go there?" Hinata continues to pester Kageyama. Kageyama turns his face away from Hinata.

"The strongest school in the prefecture…" Hinata swallows the lump in his throat.

Everyone is leaning forward on their seats.

"Rejected me" Kageyama deadpans.

Everyone fell forwards on the floor, while looking at Kageyama.

"You didn't make it?" Hinata inquires, "Even though you're the King of the Court?"

Kageyama clenches his teeth at the tittle his eyes turn sharp.

"Don't… call me that!" he exclaims angrily startling Hinata.

"He most have had a bad experience in the past" murmured Yachi to herself.

"The first setter of Kitagawa is on our team?" a voice comments from outside drawing the guys attention to the door.

"But the guy's totally cocky"

"Don't try and intimidate him, okay?"

Three students wearing their gym close are walking toward the gym.

"I-I wouldn't do something like that"

They enter the gym, their jerseys say, "Karasuno High School Volleyball Club." The students turn out to be Daichi, Suga and Tanaka. Daichi and Suga look relax and cool, while Tanaka is posing like a yankii.

"Hey, hey, hey. Who said you guys could…" Tanaka starts to say when he is pulled back by Daichi.

"You're Kageyama?" Daichi asked completely ignoring Hinata.

"Osu" replays Kageyama while Hinata crab walks toward the team.

"Glad you are here," says Daichi

"You're quite tall," comments Suga.

Daichi palmed his face, he couldn't believe how inconsiderate he was acting toward Hinata by ignoring him. He would fix that so it did not happen again.

"He needs an initiation, Suga-san," says Tanaka while Hinata continue his crab walk, "Let's give him a reason to be intimidated by us upperclassmen®!"

"Tanaka, stop with that face," Daichi scolds Tanaka.

Hinata measures the four of them and figures out that Kageyama is taller.

"But high schoolers are kinda big," Hinata thinks, as he observes the upperclassmen. "That's right. I'm at Karasuno now"

Hinata gets excited and starts to introduce himself only to get ignore by his sempai. Therefore he screams to get their attention.

"Hello," yells out Hinata startling everyone.

"Huh?"

"Oh! You!" Tanaka points at Hinata, "Shorty # 1!"

Across Suga's and Daichi's face recognition runs.

"Why did you guys remember me by that nickname," complained Hinata.

He got no answer back.

"So the other applicant here, Hinata, is…" Daichi reads off his notes, "you?"

Daichi looks shock.

"I'm a little surprise," his face smooth out, "I see, so both of you are here at Karasuno."

Hinata and Kageyama look confuse. So Suga explains, "We saw your match last year"

Tanaka adds in his two cents, "You're way shot and sucked bad, but you've got guts."

"Your jumps were awesome, too," Suga compliments Hinata.

"But you haven't grown much since," Tanaka measures Hinata.

Hinata tempers rises so he exclaims, "I might be little, but I can jump! I'll be Karasuno's ace!"

"Hear that Asahi, Hinata is after your spot," Nishinoya teased Asahi.

"Um, yeah," the gentle giant replied.

"Show more passion! Asahi!" yelled Nishinoya mad at Asahi gentle disposition.

"Hey, hey. The newbie says he's gonna be the ace?" Tanaka teases Hinata, "You've got some nerve."

"It's good to be ambitious, right?" Suga pacifies Hinata before he can get angry.

"I'll do my best," exclaims Hinata brightly while Kageyama glared at him.

"If you want to be the ace, I hope you've improved," Kageyama states, "If you goof around, you'll ware another three years"

"Harsh," ran among many minds.

Hinata turns around slowly, "What did you say?"


Okay so this chapter was shorter than usual, still more than 1k words. I started writing this way before February but just finished it. I wanted to get something out before the month is over, the next chapter should be posted in around two weeks as I have another essay to write, just finished one last week… If anyone has some criticism as long as it is constructive I want to hear it. Also, I really need help with the talking parts. By the way the symbol in the chapter is where I change what the word said. In the sub I have Tanaka says third years but he is a second year so I changed it. Sorry for the long delay.
