Third person pov.
The crowd cheers. It was the finals for the women's volleyball event.

The two teams gathered together on their sides.

"Remember what we practiced and don't panic." Japan's coach says. "This is the finals. Give it your all, and let's win this. One two three-"

"Japan!" The team cheers.

As teams are about to go on the court, the announcer calls every player going on, one by one.

"Do they really have to do this?" Mizuki tapped her foot impatiently.

"It is the finals." Her teammate and friend, Kanoka, responded.

"I know, I know." The first girl replied. "I just wanna play!"

"We're starting soon, don't worry." She assured her.

Kanoka walked away as she was being announced. Mizuki hopped in her spot, excited to play. Finally, they get to her.

"The elite player who went in the dark at the start, but comes back and reclaims her name as the 'Falcon.' Number 13 of Japan, ready to spread her wings, Ukai Mizuki!"

She happily jog to the court and waved to the crowd.

There, even with the noise in the stadium, she heard a few voices she recognized.

Mizuki turned and found her former teammates of Karasuno in the stands, cheering her and her team on. A few former members of different high school teams sat with them, and others were scattered in the crowd. At the front row was Japan's men's volleyball team, cheering the team on too.

And in one of the many rows, she saw her family. Her mom and dad, her brother to cheer them on. And her friend who travelled from another country had come too.

She waved to them and beamed as her teammates highfived each other before going to their spots. The opponent team had the ball, getting first serve.

Getting ready, she puts her dark brown and highlighted blond hair up into a ponytail. She runs her hands together, warming up.

The team gets ready to receive, ready to start. The whistle blows and the referee shows the signal.

Mizuki smiled as the ball is thrown into the air.

Let's play.
