Hey! Just wanted to try a one shot and see what happened
Hehe, I've been trying to develop this idea for a while
So I hope you enjoy it
I'm not sure if there's an idea like this already out there
But oh well, sorry… I haven't seen it
Also, I just wanted to apologize in advance for any mistakes found here
or if there are any parts that seem unclear to you

And this partly won't be canon since I don't know what their oath is
You know, the one that Akashi mentioned in the manga
When they first got together after middle school graduation
He only showed up and then dismissed them… real mystery
Whatevs... Let's Start!

Quick Summary:

Akashi Seijuro, after winning the interhigh championships, decided to call out the Generation of Miracles together but made sure to tell them to come alone at all costs. Remembering the oath that they'd made in middle school, they each knew that they had no choice but to obey the former captain. However, being suspicious of his previous actions, Seirin follows their invisible player out of curiosity and find themselves unable to get out of trouble.

One Shot: GoM – Forced Reunion

Riko glanced around the gym as she watched her boys practice through a mini game against each other. Hyuuga, Kagami, Furihata, Fukada and Tsuchida made up one team while the rest were on the other. She smiled as they pushed themselves to improve without her telling them and it cheered her heart up to see how much they truly loved the sport. Kagami suddenly then dunked a basket much to the dismay of the other team while the others cheered for the two point lead.

"Let's go, defense!" Hyuuga exclaimed as his team then rushed back over the half court line and positioned themselves for defense. Izuki just tossed the ball towards Koganei and he dribbled and looked for an open person. He found Mitobe and passed to the hook shooter. Mitobe caught it and drove towards the basket. "Here it comes..." Furihata thought as he guarded the silent boy. Mitobe then jumped and shot the ball in and it was good.

"Yes, we came back to a tie!" Kawahara yelled as they ran back sudden since the other team started off quickly, not wasting any time. Despite this being a practice match, they pushed themselves as though their season was on the line. Tsuchida passed the ball to Kagami who was suddenly double teamed by Izuki and Kawahara, Kagami was then forced to pass to Hyuga who then went for a three pointer.

"Oh no!" They watched cautiously as the ball flew through the air. Kagami thought for sure that it was going to go in however Hyuuga knew otherwise.

"Tsuchida!" Hyuuga exclaimed as the boy, good at rebounds, tried to retrieve the ball for his team. He reached and just narrowly missed it as Mitobe snagged it from his reach and he passed it immediately to Izuki who drove towards the key but was stopped just before it by Fukada, who had stayed back a bit just in case the shot had failed. Izuki paused for a moment to see who was free for his pass. He then suddenly spotted Kuroko whom he then tossed the ball towards.

"Kuroko!" He exclaimed as the boy suddenly turned, not paying attention as the ball suddenly slammed him in the face. Koganei flinched as he witnessed the play and then ran towards the boy, as did the rest of the team.

"Kuroko-kun!" Riko exclaimed as she gazed at the boy who fell backwards towards the gym floor.

"Kuroko! Are you alright?" the boy in question just shook his head and looked up at his sempai.

"Hai, I'm alright." He rubbed his forehead and accepted the hand that Kagami had offered him.

"Baka, you're supposed to pay attention when playing." Kagami scolded the boy who just seemed a bit spaced out.

"Hai." He answered quietly as the others then resumed the game from where they'd left off. It was Hyuuga who threw it in and Kuroko, mindlessly in Riko's eyes, intercepted and threw it quickly over towards Koganei who was waiting under the basket. When he received the pass, he felt that it was a bit off mark just a bit but he had received it otherwise. He then went for a shot.

"Yata! I scored!" He cheered gleefully as they went on towards their basket. "What was with that pass?" Riko thought as she looked curiously at Kuroko. "It seemed to have less power than it usually does." Riko was getting a bit worried about said boy. He seemed pretty out of it all day, now that she looked back on it. He almost missed his name during role call and was nearly deemed absent from practice, Kagami almost steamrolled over him if it weren't for Kagami noticing him at the last second, Kagami even reported that during gym class, earlier that day, he was nearly locked in the equipment room because he spaced out after they retrieved the class' balls.

"Time! Everyone take a short break." She exclaimed as all the boys looked at her for a moment before trudging off the court and getting a drink of water. "Kuroko-kun, come here. I want to talk to you for a moment." She said sternly as the others just stared curiously as Kuroko made his way over towards his coach.

"Hai, Kan-toku, what is it?" He asked her. She looked into his eyes which were usually void of any expression of emotion, however at that moment, they were filled with anxiety though she didn't know how she figured that conclusion.

"What's wrong, Kuroko-kun?" she asked bluntly.

"I don't understand." He responded bluntly as well.

"I mean, is there something bothering you? You've been out of it for almost the entire day. If there's something troubling you, you don't have to be ashamed in asking..." She said to him though the invisible boy interrupted.

"I never hesitate to ask for assistance." He said plainly, not changing his expression.

"Ah, so da ne?(that's right, huh?)" Riko said nervously as she sighed. "But you still haven't answered my question."

"There's nothing wrong. I just have things that I need to think about." Kuroko explained himself.

"Okay." Riko said though she wasn't fully satisfied with the answer. "But if this is about losing to Aomine, then you shouldn't let it ge-" she was cut off yet again.

"This has nothing to do with the match against Aomine-kun." Kuroko sounded offended by the assumption so she quickly apologized. "I assure you that it is nothing that needs to be made known." Riko nodded then dismissed him and she looked at Hyuuga who gave her a questioning glance. She sighed deeply as she then announced for them to continue on with training.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The end of practice was then announced and the boys headed for the change rooms. Many of them took long showers in order to wash away the sweat that clinged on from their clothes; however, Kuroko quickly said his goodbye as he rushed out, not that it looked any different from how he usually leaves them. This was then that someone brought up how Kuroko was acting during their practice match. "Did you guys notice how Kuroko's passes slowly started to get less and less accurate?" Izuki asked them.

"Yeah, it was sort of hard to catch because I always expected it to be so much harder than that but there were times when it was nearly impossible to catch." Koganei agreed with him.

"That's right, Mitobe, it was like he wasn't paying attention to how he was throwing it at all." Tsuchida translated as the first years just looked at him shocked by how he understood what the mute had said.

"Well, he wasn't in his right mind the whole time actually." Kagami felt like he needed to mention it.

"We should ask the coach about this, she did talk to him earlier." Fukada recalled when the coach had paused the game and called the phantom player over. The boys all changed quickly and then ran out towards the coach.

"Kan-toku, we have a question to ask you." Izuki said to her.

"It's about Kuroko-kun, deshou?" they nodded in response. "Something's bothering him but he didn't even tell me what it was about. He assured that it wasn't about the match against Too but there's still something big that he's hiding."

"Why don't we follow him and see where he goes?" Koganei blurted out.

"We shouldn't invade his personal-" Hyuuga started but Riko blew him away completely.

"That's a great idea, Koganei-kun!" Riko exclaimed with fire burning in her eyes. "She really doesn't like being kept out of secrets, does she?" Hyuuga sweatdropped as the others obliged to the idea. However, the three first years said that they had to get home soon, so they were excused from the mission. Mitobe also 'announced' that he had to take his leave as well as Tsuchida for unknown reasons. Riko had allowed it but when Kagami tried to sneak away, trying to ignore his curiosity as well, he was then dragged along by Riko while the rest trailed along from behind.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Do you see him?" Koganei wondered as some of them peered around the corner.

"Yeah I see him." Izuki said, using his eagle eye. They had found him not to long ago, walking from the school after making a short stop by his locker and made sure not to lose him afterwards, due to his already hard to notice aura. Kuroko had made his way through neighbourhoods and walked down the busy road, past convenience stores and restaurants. The Seirin gang trailed behind not so far away, much to the confusion of passersby who just stared at them oddly, though they paid no attention to them since, as the point was made clear earlier, it was easy to lose track of their phantom player.

Not long after, they had found that after Kuroko had checked his phone for a moment, he then met up with two familiar faces that waited for him by a corner. Kagami looked like he was ready to kill as the others expressed fear and shock upon their faces. "Yo Tetsu!"

"Tetsu-kun~!" the girl glomped the other male.

"Domo, Momoi-san, Aomine-kun." Kuroko had a feel for the uncomfortable air due to their past game with Too.

"I hope you've been training, Tetsu, cause I'm not gonna go easy on you the next time around. And this time, I'm for sure going to be there from start to finish." Aomine smirked as Seirin looked as though they were ready to bounce in and retort the tanned boy.

Kuroko looked as though he were going to say something back but was stopped by Momoi. "Saa~ no talking about basketball right now..." Momoi puffed her cheeks and tugged at both their arms, hooking them to herself. "Let's go, otherwise the others will be angry at us." She then continued to drag the two boys down the block.

"This is what Kuroko was thinking about this whole day?" Hyuuga wondered.

"Who cares about that? Why is he meeting up with the enemy?" Kagami growled as he continued to glare at Aomine.

"Don't stare too much, you might burn him and give away our position!" Whispered Riko angrily as she punched the back of his head.

"No worries, it seems as though Aomine has other things running through his mind as well." Another voice interrupted and the boys and Riko looked around to find the source. They looked to the opposite of their hiding spot and found Imayoshi with Wakamatsu from Too gakuen. Their expressions all changed once again as they stared at the two.

"What are you doing here?" Riko almost exclaimed out of shock and confusion.

"Same as you, spying on our Kouhai." Imayoshi said simply as he looked and found that they were waiting at the stop light.

"Aomine suddenly showed up to practice and followed orders for once so we decided to see what was up." Wakamatsu explained as the Seirin gang sweatdropped. "What a problem..." They all thought as they inwardly pitied Too for having to take care of such a dangerous and high maintenance player.

"Whatever, if we don't catch up to them, then we'll lose them." Riko said and they all followed the trio. They were getting sort of tired of tailing the three and were about to call it quits when Kise suddenly made an appearance and walked towards them.

"Yo, Aominecchi, Momoicchi! Kurokocchi~! I knew you would come!" Kise hugged the poor boy to death. Kuroko tried to tap out but he was being swung around so much that he got disorientated.

"Ki-chan moooo~! Don't hog Tetsu-kun!" She said and tried to pry the boy away from the other.

"Demooo, Momoicchi, I barely get to see him." Kise whined.

"I don't either!" Momoi whined back. The seniors couldn't help but pity the poor boy who was being pulled by both parties, unable to get his say in.

"Oi, if you continue on like that, you'll kill Tetsu." Aomine said nonchalantly as he then entered the restaurant behind them. Kuroko was finally able to break away from the death grip as he also made his way inside. Kise and Momoi then realized that Kuroko had disappeared and ran inside to find him, yelling his name in the process.

"I think the Generation of Miracles are losing it." Hyuuga had to say as there were murmurs of agreement, even from voices that weren't part of their group. Just then, from across them, they found Kaijou's Kasamatsu alongside Shutoku's Otsubo, Takao and Miyaji. They all just paled when the two groups noticed each other and then met up in front of the restaurant.

"Don't tell me..." Kagami was not liking this at all. As he guessed it, Midorima was also involved in this get together though when he had met Kise, he immediately ignored the other's invitation to walk towards their destination together which resulted in him leaving the blond behind.

"There's a lot of us here, if we all go in at once, they're bound to notice us." Takao said as they peered through the window. The four miracles were still walking with their backs faced towards them. He then decided that if they were all to have walked in sneakily, a few at a time, they wouldn't notice them. Everyone exchanged glances for a moment before agreeing to the plan. They walked in casually so as to not draw attention to themselves and some of them sat in the booth behind where they'd stopped, luckily the booth's wall were pretty tall and blocked off the others beside them so they couldn't see each other from the other side at all. About 8 of them were able to fit in the booth so the rest had to go and sit elsewhere. The ones who sat there were Kasamatsu, Kagami, Riko, Hyuuga, Takao, Otsubo, Imayoshi and Wakamatsu. The other three, Izuki, Miyaji and Koganei, sat in the next aisle which was blocked by a smaller wall which allowed them to peer over.

Izuki was chosen to sit there due to his eagle eye and allowed him to tell who was there at the table. Those who were watching him just looked as he stared at the table wide eyed. Sitting there was the complete Generation of Miracles and each other them were staring at each other in a sharp gaze. There were two of them that he's never seen before but he'd guessed that they were the center and captain of the group, Murasakibara and Akashi. The others just looked down wide eyed into their menus as they heard the red head break the silence between them all. He stood up from his seat which was the only seat against the back wall, making it look like the leader's spot.

"I would just like to say, welcome to this gathering that I threw together last minute. It appears as though you all had kept your word about the oath and have obeyed my command to come here without the presence of another." Akashi said as he looked into each other their eyes. "That includes you, Tetsuya." The others felt the air tense when he had made a reference to what had happened in the past.

Everyone from the other tables all tensed up too when they heard that. Each were now wondering what had happened in the past before high school. Regardless, they knew that they've all gotten themselves into deep trouble, especially with the presence of the Generation of Miracles' captain. "I'm glad that you all have followed my orders flawlessly for if you hadn't, you know the punishment for disobeying me." He said in a dark tone, sending chills down the spines of everyone that heard him. "Though you still haven't paid up for your defiance Tetsuya so we'll have to make that up somehow."

"No matter what you say, I still do not feel as though I'm in the wrong, Akashi-kun." Kuroko said boldly towards the leader.

"Kurokocchi..." Kise said worriedly.

"Kuro-chin sure has changed." Murasakibara said as he reached across the table and ruffled the other's hair. "But you still haven't grown an inch; you're still as short as ever." The purple haired giant said jokingly. Kuroko on the other hand was getting annoyed by him.

"Please stop that, Murasakibara-kun." Kuroko swatted his hand away.

"So what's the reason for bringing us together, Akashi?" Aomine asked, getting straight to the point. "You don't usually bring us together unless it's something important." Akashi just paused for a moment as though to think about the reason first but then threw it at the back of his mind as he then decided to call for the waitress to take their order. Everyone groaned inwardly as the awaited unveiling of the reason for their summons was postponed.

"You may order anything you like, it will be my treat." The six looked up at the captain.

"Are you sure Akashi-kun? Isn't it a burden on yourself to pay for all seven of us?" Momoi asked worriedly.

"Not at all, Satsuki. It was me who had called you out so suddenly so I decided to have a brief reunion." Momoi still wasn't sure but ordered regardless, not wanting to trample over the captains good deed. They all finished ordering and received their plates a little bit later. They all had normal dishes; however, Murasakibara had ordered the most, which was mostly made up of deserts rather than an actual meal. He was then scolded by Momoi about eating properly and not to take advantage of others when offered something. Meanwhile Midorima, speaking for the first time since they'd all arrived, had started on how Kise's food always looked like vomit.

Kise had retorted that it was still food despite of how it looked. He then turned to Kuroko for an agreement but no reply came as Kuroko just munched on his food. Aomine then decided to join in and agree with Midorima on how Kise could eat something that looked like cr**. Kise then made a big fuss on how they were all picking on him and how Kuroko was just ignoring him. No matter how it looked, the group just looked like a bunch of normal teens hanging out together much to the sempai's earlier thoughts. Though as they observed this scene, it was easy to tell that the group indeed revolved around their captain, obviously, and surprisingly, as well as the unknown, rumored phantom 6th player of Teiko-chuu.

"I guess we were worried for nothing." Riko sighed as she ate her ordered food.

"Despite being monsters on the court, they're pretty normal." Hyuuga said surprised.

"I still want to beat them all up." Kagami said as they all looked at him skeptically.

"Are you still on that?" They exclaimed in his face.

"Oh well, when I saw that Kise wasn't paying attention and was more aloof than he usually was, I thought something had gone wrong. He didn't even pay attention to the fans that waved to him as we practiced." Kasamatsu said taking a bite out of his own dish.

"So you were worried about him." Takao nudged at him, making the other blush slightly and turned away.

"I told you earlier, I was going to confront him about what was going on when you suddenly appeared from behind and shut me up." Kasamatsu said as he recalled getting pulled into the bushes by Takao and told him about his plan to follow where they were headed.

"Well it seemed as though we all had the same intentions for our kouhai." Otsubo said to them.

"Though they are pretty amazing, aren't they?" Riko added.

"The word I'd be looking for would be annoying." Watamatsu said and took a mouthful of food. For a moment, they all seemed to have forgotten the reason why they had all met up in the first place until Akashi suddenly raised his voice again.

"Alright, you asked me the purpose for bringing you all out here, is that correct Daiki? Since you've waited patiently, I feel that now's the appropriate time to discuss it." Akashi looked at the tanned boy who didn't say anything back. "Well, as you all know, the winter cup is coming up and I just wanted to make sure that there's no holding back whatsoever. That's an order." They all looked skeptically at the captain, each were hoping for a much better reason than this.

"That's a given already, Akashicchi." Kise spoke up. "There's no way that I'd lose to Kurokocchi again."

"So you're assuming that I'd lose to him so that you could get your so called revenge match?" Aomine raised an eyebrow. Kise paled and had forgotten that the lineup for the Winter Cup had started off with Seirin versus Too.

"No, not that you'd lose but... I'm not saying that you'd lose either Kurokocchi, it's just that... uh... well." Kise was losing his words, not knowing what to say next. Kasamatsu just shook his head as he listened to the blond stutter.

"Think before you speak, baka." He said partially to himself. Everyone was interested in the topic, but that didn't make the atmosphere any more tolerable. If anything, it just made it even more unbearable.

"Maa~ don't talk about outcomes until they happen. Ne, Ki-chan?" Momoi saved the poor blond's soul when she spoke. She also eased the atmosphere a bit too.

"I don't plan to lose though, Aomine-kun." Kuroko said suddenly, reverting the air back to its tenseness.

"Kuroko!" Hyuuga paled when he heard him speak.

"Don't talk in your blunt way now of all times!" Riko blanked out with slight rage when she heard him. "Think about the atmosphere, atmosphere!"

"He's got guts, doesn't he Wakamatsu?" Imayoshi said to his teammate with that never leaving smile upon his face.

"Sure does, saying he'll beat us in front of our faces." "Though he doesn't know that we're here." Everyone thought at once.

"Aka-chin, why don't you continue with what you're saying!" Murasakibara said as he paused from his 'meal'.

"Well, that wasn't the only reason why I wanted to gather you here." Akashi said after he announced his order to the group and once they were all done chatting with each other. "The second reason why I brought you here..." Akashi went all tense again, making everyone around him aggravated. They just wanted to know for what reason they were brought together. "I was bored at Rakuzan and wanted to meet with those whom I knew would be more interesting than them yet still obey me." Everyone at the table's chin dropped, even Murasakibara stopped stuffing his face for once. Only Kuroko maintained his deadpan expression.

"Come again?" Kise looked at their captain, dumbfounded.

"I was bored, so I thought playing with you guys would make up for it." Akashi grinned childishly in a fiendish sort of way. Everyone around them fell out of their chairs (not literally since they're in a booth lol...) as they heard the response.

"If you wanted to call us just for that reason, then you shouldn't have bothered!" Aomine looked pissed.

"This is a complete waste of time then, Akashi." Midorima said, trying to make it sound in a way that was not so offending. He then looked at his lucky item, a ceramic keychain, if you could call a palm sized item a keychain, clipped onto his phone. It seemed as though his phone were the actual keychain to the item.

"Akashi-kun, it's not right of you to toy with others precious time just because of your selfish needs." Kuroko said.

"It still turned out to be more interesting than I had thought initially. With Shintaro, Ryota and Daiki's conversation and Tetsuya's blunt retorts, it was better than expected. Plus I even got to see the reaction of those from other high schools. It seems like some people just don't know how to stay away from others' personal matters." Akashi announced to the surprise of the older years. "We all know you're there, you may come out from your spots, sempai-tachi."

Riko gulped as they all obliged to the first year captain. All eleven of them stood up and looked over towards the table. "So you guys all knew from the beginning didn't you?" Otsubo asked them with crossed arms as five of them exchanged glances with each other before responding.

"Did you guys really think that it'd be that easy to tailgate Tetsu, all the way from your school?" Aomine looked at Seirin skeptically. "Most of us are even unable to do such a thing while he's taking a five minute walk through the park." They all looked at each other sheepishly.

"And you have to give us more credit, sempai. Our senses are a bit more developed then to not be able to tell when we're being followed." Momoi said this time.

"I guess we underestimated them this time." Takao said, scratching the back of his head. Kuroko didn't say anything and just stared at Kagami who seemed to be glaring at Aomine, then shifted his gaze between Murasakibara and Akashi. He grinned then pointed towards the pair.

"I'll be sure to fight both of you in the future, I'll make sure of that." He announced cockily.

"There he goes again." Koganei sweatdropped.

"Ah~, so this is the new light of Kuro-chin that we've been hearing about." Murasakibara said as he looked at Kagami. "Not much improvement between him and Mine-chin."

"What'd you say?" Kagami exclaimed but was held back by Riko and Hyuuga.

"I beg to differ, Atsushi." Akashi said as he gazed at Kagami knowingly. "He bears a certain talent deep within that is still currently being developed." Akashi scanned the other red head from head to toe. "Riko-san..." Akashi turned towards the coach of Seirin.

"H-hai?" She was taken aback slightly upon being called so suddenly. This was then that she learned not to underestimate, even in the slightest form, the information gathering of any of the Generation of Miracles nor their knowing of others' abilities.

"Please be sure to prepare this boy thoroughly in time for the tournament, I want to make sure Tetsuya does not handicap the rest of us and has enough firepower to go against us at full strength." Akashi said unexpectedly. Riko just agreed, unable to say anything else. This got her to thinking that the Generation of Miracles really were all monsters for being able to uphold a conversation with a person like that normally and even having the guts to defy or complain to him about anything.

"Ne Kuroko..." Izuki suddenly came up to the boy. "I'm not sure if it's alright for me to ask but what exactly, were you checking for in your phone earlier?" He guessed that it was an email from his captain but was curious as to what it said and if it reflected what the rumors had said about said captain.

"Gomen, Izuki-sempai, demo, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you." Kuroko told the other who nodded in understanding.

"It's alright, Tetsuya." Akashi said from his seat. "You may let them know, they'll ask you about it later anyways. Might as well tell them now." Akashi smiled towards them, which creeped Izuki out a bit. Akashi had sensed his discomfort and sort of enjoyed the look he gave on his face. Kuroko understood and pulled out his phone, and showed him the message that he'd received that morning.

3:30 am Sender: Akashi Seijuro
Ohayo minna,

This is Akashi, and I want to invite you all to dinner tonight at the usual place.
However, under any circumstances, do not tell your teammates or friends of where you are going.
If anything, just leave and see what happens. If they start to follow, ignore them and move on as though they weren't there.
It would be most enjoyable to find out their thoughts on this matter and would be a good chance to take a look at the rival schools of my former teammates.
I look forward to seeing you all there tonight.

-Akashi Seijuro

"Wow, 3:30 in the morning..." The basketball members all stared at it. But disregarding that part, with that message, the semapi couldn't help but feel annoyed and manipulated by their kouhai. "We are sorry for not being able to say a thing about this matter." Kuroko apologized for the team and his captain.

"No, it wasn't entirely your fault." They all said as they felt like bearing down on their respective member of the Generation of Miracles.

"Well, not much is happening anymore so I guess I'll take my leave. Miyaji said as he and the two other members of Kaijou took off. "See you tomorrow, Midorima." Otsubo said in a menacing tone as Midorima shivered by the sound of it. He knew that tomorrow, he'd be given hell for what had happened that day and he was not looking forward to that at all.

"Kise, I'm going to leave too but you better not slack off from now on." Kasamatsu said as Kise agreed right away. "And I expect to hear when you need to leave for an 'important meeting' or anything from now on. Understood?"

"Hai!" Kise said to his sempai who then left.

"We'll be going too, see you tomorrow Aomine." Imayoshi said after paying for his food like the rest before leaving.

"You better show up tomorrow." Wakamatsu said menacingly though Aomine didn't seem fazed by it one bit. "And before you make Sakurai cry again by taking his lunch, bring your own!" With that, the pair left, well, one stomped out.

"I guess that leaves us then." Riko sighed for the umpteenth time that day. "So this was what was bothering you, Kuroko-kun." The girl pieced together as the boy just nodded.

"I apologize again for being unable to mention it." Kuroko bowed his head.

"You're always so polite, Tetsu-kun~!" Momoi commented. "It's a good change from some other baka I know." She shifted her gaze towards a blue haired boy.

"Who are you calling a baka?" Aomine defended.

"You, Ahomine!" Momoi exclaimed back.

"Now it's Aho?" He exclaimed once again.

Ignoring the pair, Hyuuga answered this time. "Ah, it's no problem, Kuroko. After all, we now see what you must go through." Hyuuga said the last part silently so as not to alarm Akashi.

"Whatever, I'm still leaving. But don't forget to make it to the finals." Kagami challenged them all at once before leaving them.

"He certainly is annoying." Midorima snorted as he pushed up his glasses.

"That's not even the half of it." Riko sighed.

"Though he is still trustworthy and comes through in a pinch." Izuki added.

"Well, we'll be off. Bye Kuroko!" the Seirin gang finally left the Generation of Miracles to themselves.

"They're all gone." Murasakibara said as he saw the door close.

"So what's the real real reason as to why you summoned us?" Aomine asked again, knowing that Akashi always had a hidden meaning behind his words and kept explanations for when they were really alone.

"I can't believe you forgot our special occasion, Daiki." Akashi looked hurt, playfully of course.

"Forgot what?" Aomine looked slightly baffled.

"To be honest, I don't remember either." Kise responded sheepishly.

"If today is that day, then all of this is understandable." Kuroko said.

"I knew you'd understand eventually, Tetsuya." The red headed, heterochromatic boy said to the other. Midorima had a good guess as to what they were talking about while the other three were all unsure of what was going on. Momoi seemed to have a good guess too but didn't want to say it out loud for she might spoil whatever Akashi had been working on.

"What is this day?" Aomine was getting fed up with all these games that he was forced to play.

Kuroko looked over towards Akashi who gave him the go ahead to fill the others in, quickly. "With it being summer, this was around the time when Kise-kun had been admitted to being a Teiko regular." Kuroko started, most of them still not understanding. "Today is the day when the Generation of Miracles had first become a complete team." Kuroko said up front as the others all looked at him, suddenly remembering the day.

"That's right... so Akashi-kun did all of this just so that we could spend it together." Momoi looked at the red headed leader.

"So da... and this dinner is my present to you all." Akashi grinned to the members.

"But we didn't get anything for you, Akashicchi." Kise pouted, feeling even more indebted to the boy than before. Akashi had just paid the bill and lead them all outside. However, not before them noticing a box that the owner had given to Akashi before then.

"You've all brought me what I've asked for already." Akashi said, referring to his text message. He did, in fact, though it was indirectly, ask them to bring along their sempai just so that he could get a look at them and that's what they all did. Unintentionally of course.

"So what are we doing now, Akashi? It's getting pretty late." Aomine stated, looking at the dimming sky.

"Have you forgotten again, Daiki?" Akashi challenged him, Aomine just made a sour face and turned away. "We're going to the place that Tetsuya had brought us to last year. After how much fun everyone had then, I've decided to make it an on-going tradition." Akashi said and handed them the box and asked them to pull one thing out of it. They all obliged and found the box to be cold. Kise, being the first to get the box, pulled out an ice cream bar, the one that they'd always eaten together after practices or a game.

"Akashicchi~" Kise was feeling very nostalgic as he started to cry happily, being overdramatic about it.

"It's dessert." He grinned and started to munch on his own. They then started to head over towards a park and climbed upwards on a hill until they reached an old viewing point, hidden behind a few trees and bushes, which revealed the rooftops of the neighbourhood houses below them. Above was the reddish pink sky that had the orange sun, setting behind the scene.

"Oh, I remember. Kuro-chin did bring us here once before." Murasakibara said, ruffling the hair of said boy for the second time that day. Kuroko just swatted him off yet again.

"It's wonderful, Tetsu-kun!" Momoi hugged the boy affectionately and enjoyed the view as she wasn't present for their special day, last year. It even seemed to bring a smile onto Aomine's face as he stood behind the group. Midorima fiddled with his special keychain to hide his enjoyment from this moment.

"I still want to know how Kurokocchi found this place." Kise beamed as he leaned over the railing.

"It was a coincidence." Kuroko said as his pale blue eyes reflected the sky's beautiful color.

"It doesn't matter, from now on, I'll claim this spot to be our alone." Akashi said evilly.

"Are you allowed to do that, Akashi-kun?" Kuroko questioned.

"You doubt me, Tetsuya?" Akashi seemed to have pulled out a pair of scissors from behind his ice cream bar while he slowly turned his head towards the boy, freaking out everyone behind him. (expression: O_O)

"Not at all." Kuroko then proceeded to eat his ice before it melted. He then looked over towards Kise as he leaned further onto the railing to get a better view of the area. "You'll fall Kise-kun." He called out towards the other.

"Let him." Aomine sighed nonchalantly. "It leaves one less problem to deal with."

"Hidoi! Aominecchi!" Kise pouted angrily at the other. "See Kurokocchi, everyone's making fun of me~"

"Why do you always complain to Kuro-chin? He's not your mother." Murasakibara said to the other, licking off his popsicle stick and took out a bag of gummies.

"It's fun picking on the newbie." Midorima joined in, finally giving his reason for picking on the blond suddenly.

"Are we still on the whole newb thing?" Kise frowned with anime tears falling down his face.

"Mo~ minna! Stop fighting and enjoy the view together!" Momoi suggested to them, clapping her hand together.

"Stay out of it, Satsuki." Aomine said harshly.

"Ahomine!" She blurted out to him.

"Where'd that come from?" Aomine's eye twitched upon hearing the newly formed nickname.

"Aomine-kun doesn't know how to handle women." Kuroko said as he suddenly appeared beside the power player, scaring him to death.

"Tetsu! I thought I told you to stop doing that!" He picked up the boy by the front of his shirt. "And I don't want to hear a lecture on women from you!"

"It's fun seeing your surprised reaction." He said calmly, making the other even more pissed off. "I don't get to see it anymore."

"Tetsu!"

"Dai-chan! Let Tetsu-kun go!" Momoi pleaded.

"Now it's Dai-chan? And I told you to forget that nickname."

"It's not nice, picking on someone smaller than you Mine-chin." Murasakibara joined in the conversation.

"What about me!" Kise cried even more.

"Please don't comment on my height, Murasakibara-kun." Kuroko said with a hint of annoyance in his tone.

"But you're soo chibi."

"Honestly, you are still too short, Kuroko. If you followed the Oha-sa predictions like me, you'd receive good fortune." Midormia commented.

"This has nothing to do with that stupid fortune telling!" Aomine exclaimed still gripping Kuroko's shirt and flinging him all over the place. Midorima then shut up and felt like going to a corner after Aomine exclaimed that his beliefs were stupid, though at the same time, he felt a burning anger towards the other. He then looked at his cellphone and visited the website for Oha-sa.

"Ahominecchi, put Kurokocchi down! You'll hurt him!" Kise whined, ignoring Midorima.

"Don't you start, Kise!" The blond put up his hands in defense as the other walked towards him menacingly, Kuroko still caught in his fist.

"Whaa~ tasukete!" Kise ran for his life, zigzagging between everyone.

"Aomine-kun, will you let me go?" Kuroko asked the raging boy.

"Tetsu-kun!" Momoi followed behind them. Murasakibara continued to eat his gummies while Midorima was checking their horoscopes. "If they followed this, then they wouldn't be having so much trouble right now." Midorima thought to himself as he just observed the scene with an evil aura starting to burn around him.

Akashi just sat on top of the hill behind them, watching the scene as well. He just sharpened his scissors with a rock that he'd found on the ground and watched as the sun set. "I'll get them back for those short comments. You mess with Tetsuya's height and you mess with mine." Akashi said to himself, revealing his insecurity about his own height. It seemed that he had an even greater height complex than the latter due to his higher position on the team. "Quadruple the punishment for everyone." He said as he then stood up and walked down towards the raging group.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The group of sempai and Kagami all walked back from their destination. "I guess the generation of miracles are all actually just normal teens." Hyuuga stated as they all agreed with him.

"Though, that doesn't change the fact that they're all still scary." Takao shivered at the menacing look, Akashi had given them earlier. Riko was the first to agree to the statement after she felt the icy glare that she'd received from the captain. It felt as though it were still bearing down on her. Suddenly, in the distance, they all heard the yells of a certain group and immediately put two and two together as they pieced out what was being said.

"...Kise!"

"Whaa~ tasukete!"

"Tetsu-kun!"

They all sweatdropped and then continued to more forwards. "I guess they really are a few cogs short in the brain." Kasamatsu agreed with the initial statement from before and once again, there was a round of murmuring agreements.

Haha, totally ruined the moment at the end there
Sorry… but I couldn't help it
I just couldn't leave such a mushy ending there, could I?
Oh well, we found out why Akashi called them out
I hope you enjoyed it

And I'll see you guys in my other stories!
