A/N: This is my first fic, so please review and tell me what you think. Also, if there's anything confusing, just ask:)

Important Note: In this story, I'll consider all nine of them as regulars^^ Implied (though quite hidden) pairings are mentioned. Good luck finding them!

Disclaimer: I do NOT own POT nor Fuji Syuusuke. Only the story plot is mine..

Only a few weeks are to be counted before the arrival of holidays at Seishun Gakuen. Sure enough, the school was already decorated for Christmas. From classrooms to halls, even in the tennis courts. All the regulars were aware of this. But it takes one data master to take advantage of all this to suggest CHAOS.

"Everyone, practice is over. You may now go home," the buchou announced. Inui, who was

standing right next to him with a rather mischievous smile, whispered something to Tezuka that made the latter sigh inaudibly. "All regulars, Stay. We have a meeting in the clubroom." He finally said.

The regulars exchanged murmurs of 'whats' and 'whys' before proceeding to the clubroom.

They contemplated on what was going to happen next. Inui was the first to speak.

"Minna, I know we are all aware that the holidays are drawing near. Therefore, I have asked permission from Tezuka and Ryuuzaki-sensei for us to participate in a team-bonding activity also known as CHAOS."

"Eh? chaos? Doesn't that mean disaster ?" a very curious Kawamura asked.

"Hey Mamushi, You'll be very good at this, I'm sure." Momo didn't waste an opportunity in irritating Kaidoh.

"Fshuu..What did you say, baka? Aren't you speaking for yourself?!"

"Who are you calling baka!? Na Mamushi?"

And before the two could break into a serious fight (and cause real chaos), Oishi already acted as the default referee between the two.

"Can I go home now, Inui-senpai?" The freshman obviously didn't want to have anything to do with this thing called CHAOS.

"No, Echizen. All regulars are required to participate." Tezuka, who positioned himself at the corner of the room, remained quiet as if he couldn't care less about this whole thing if it hadn't been for Inui.

The thing is, all the regulars are having second thoughts. They seem to be struggling with the possible consequences this 'CHAOS' may bring even if they haven't really heard what it is yet. Well, ALMOST all the regulars are. However, for tensais (and/or sadists), entertainment and challenge comes with such an opportunity.

"Saa.. Sounds fun, Inui. Count me in." Fuji seemed to trust Inui in this. Much like in his juices.

The regulars stared at him. After deciding that they really weren't surprised, they went back on wishing they weren't born in Tokyo.

"Fujiko, don't say that! I'm getting scared, nya." Kikumaru knew Fuji. He knew that the tensai is in his sadist self right now. Hearing what seems like an accusation, Fuji cast him a questioning look implying that he was innocent. Maybe too innocent.

Inui let the regulars ponder on their thoughts for a while. He waited for them to cool a bit before continuing. " Now, let me explain the rules for CHAOS. Or shall I say, Celebrating Holidays Around On Seigaku." The regulars let out a sigh. It was either for relief or despair over the fact that they have no choice but to participate. More like the latter.

"A week before Christmas, which is next week, we will be exchanging gifts with fellow regulars. Each one will be assigned to one person who will receive his gift." Inui paused. He waited until the regulars sank in the information.

"That's it?" Echizen clearly knew bigger matters than this. "Mada Mada Dane, Inui-senpai."

The regulars were obviously quite relieved. But for tensais (and/or saidists), this is just the appetizer. The main course is just about to be served in a golden platter. Alas! He knew he was right when Inui continued, much to Fuji's delight.

"Now for the real challenge," Inui tried to suppress an evil laughter from seeing the regulars' faces upon hearing that. "It's quite simple, actually. You just have to make the receiver of your gift smile upon three seconds after opening the gift." Inui paused again. But this time, the regulars weren't fooled. They prepared themselves for something more.

"Those who fail to do so will receive punishment." There it is. They expected Inui's new version of pois- I mean JUICE to make its debut.

"Unfortunately, I was not permitted to involve my specialty in this case. Also, the punishment will be announced at the day of CHAOS."

The regulars weren't quite sure if this was good news. Knowing Inui, he would have prepared something worse than his juices in this matter. If there was anything worse than his juices, that is. Assuming that there wasn't, then this was good news.

"Any questions?" The data master wasn't actually used to asking questions. He was more of a observe-and-gather-data-to-know-the-answer kind of guy.

"Uh, well, isn't there a budget for the cost of the gift?" Kawamura is quite timid without his racket.

"No, there isn't. I believe that a person's smile is costless. The mission is to make the receiver of your gift smile regardless of how expensive your gift is." Inui answered.

"Inui-senpai. What if, let's say, one of us gets sick at that exact same date because, uhm maybe the cold weather..?" Momoshiro has got to be kidding, right? Either way, Inui didn't bother to answer that.

"Fshuu. What a lame excuse. Well, what can we expect from a baka like you?"

"Eh Mamushi!? I'd say you're more scared! And stop calling me baka!"

"I think you two are just afraid of the idea of giving gifts to each other. Considering the fact that you were never able to make each other smile, your punishment is guaranteed. That is, if you pick each other's names." Fuji didn't mean to provoke. Rather, he just wanted to clarify things. Or maybe he did mean to provoke. I don't know, you choose what to believe.

Oishi sighed in relief. His job as referee was fulfilled. Even if another method was used, it was still effective to shut those two up.

"Where will the CHAOS be held?" Oishi asked feeling slightly awkward with the acronym.

"I'd say this clubroom is quite enough. However, if you prefer a more open ground-"

"That's alright, Inui." Oishi wasn't the type of person to cut in but he just couldn't take the

suggestion of more exposure. The regulars still have dignity to uphold, in case you didn't know.

"Inui-senpai, when will we have to pick names?"asked Kaidoh after recovering from the every-15-minute fight with Momoshiro.

"Ah, yes. Thank you Kaidoh. We will pick the names tomorrow."

"Ah! Inui, I have a question.." Kikumaru leaned to whisper to Inui's ears.

"What if the person we picked is..well.. . doesn't smile. You know, like.. buchou…?" He whispered carefully so that he wouldn't have to run laps just after practice.

"Non sense, Kikumaru. Even Tezuka was born with the ability to smile. You just need to find a way to trigger it." Inui said quietly.

"Can I go home now?" You could guess who asked that, really.

"If there're no more questions, then yes. You may leave." Inui announced. The regulars made a move of taking their bags and starting to leave the room when danger suddenly spoke.

"Aren't you forgetting something, Inui?" The regulars stopped in whatever they are doing. They easily recognized the feminine voice mixed with 3 tbspoons of teasing, 1 cup of confusion, and when added with a taste of annoyance, formed a gracious act of provocation. It seems to him that Inui forgot the dessert for this whole meal.

Kikumaru Eiji, a senior at Seishun Gakuen, known for acrobatic tennis, height is 175 cm, blood type is A, favorite subject is Japanese History, hailed as the tensai's (and/or sadist's) cat-like friend, was the first to recover. "Nya Fujiko! What do you mean? Inui, what is Fuji talking about?"

Inui Sadaharu, known for data tennis, height is 184 cm, blood type is AB.. Oh heck, let's get to the point! Inui wasn't able to answer Kikumaru's question. He was still processing what the tensai (and/or sadist) meant when.. .

*CLICK* Like a light bulb suddenly turned on. Like a bone suddenly cracked. Like a runner suddenly tripped. Realization dawned into him.. "Wait! Fuji's right! I almost forgot, I would need you to write your codenames in a paper. I would collect them tomorrow for the picking of names. Make sure to fold the paper, though. Jja, see you tomorrow!"

"Wait, codenames!?"

"Senpai, you're kidding, right?"

"What are you talking about? What codenames?"

They didn't seem to enjoy the idea of the codenames. It seemed a burden thinking of a gift that would make a person smile when you don't even know who that person is. Oh great, Fuji. Thank you very much.

"Hmm. I knew there was something missing. Or else it would have been boring, right?" Fuji smiled, quite satisfied.

'WRONG! This made it worse!' The regulars shouted in their minds. Even they value their life not to cross Fuji like that.

"That's enough. Everyone go home." The captain, who has sealed his mouth shut almost the whole meeting, finally was acknowledged as present the whole time.

"Eh? Where is Echizen?" Momo looked around to find an invisible freshman. Well, you get the point.

"He must have left already. Let me just remind him of the codenames. I was planning to go to the racket shop near their neighborhood." Oishi offered, or rather, reassured.

And with that, everything went quite well, considering the fact that there was no need for a first-aid kit.
