Scanning the candy section of the store I intensely gaze at the sweets present. I can't decide whether I want the pocky or popsicles. If Atsushi were here he'd buy almost everything.

"Yosh! I'll just go with Nerunerunerune candy because I'm thinking of him," I mumble to myself and go to grab a box of them.

Grabbing a box of Nerunerunerune candy I start to walk to the front only to stop when I see the sport magazines. Putting the box under my right arm, I use my left hand to grab this month's version of Basketball Monthly. While going to reach for the last Volleyball Monthly my hand touches someone else's. Looking over I see a guy with brown hair and olive colored eyes. He seemed to be around 6'2 or 6'3 feet tall and he was wearing a purple and white tracksuit with the words 'SHIRATORIZAWA' on it.

Pulling my hand away I open my mouth to speak. "You can take it," I say and start to walk away from him with my box of candy and basketball magazine.

I head to the counter to check out to see a blond hair male reading a magazine. Placing the box of Nerunerunerune candy and the magazine on the counter the man looks up at me and I take out my wallet.

"Your total is 1000 yen," he says and I pull out a 10,000 yen bill. As I wait for my change I look through the Basketball Monthly magazine.

"Do you like basketball?" a deep voice from behind me asks and I look over to see the tall brown haired male.

"Yeah, I like all sports," I reply and continue to look through the magazine. "I'm only getting this magazine 'cuz my brother and his friends are in it again."

"Again?" he asks.

"Yeah, they've always been it since our first year of middle school," I absentmindedly replied and stop at the page where my brother is and show it to the male. He looks at Ryouta for a few moments and then looks back to me. "My brother."

I return back to the magazine and flip a few more pages until I hear, "Here is your change." I closed the magazine to grab my change. Putting my wallet away I grab my items and go to leave before I turn back to the two males.

"I hope both of you have a good day." With that I left the store and headed home.

Tuesday came quicker than expected and I groaned. I was too lazy to go to school. Maybe if I skipped they wouldn't care? But if I did I would have to make up a hell ton of work. AHHH HOW ANNOYING! Listening to my rational side I groggily get up from bed and go to get changed into my uniform. Unlike the other girls, I wore the guy pants because I didn't like how short the skirts were. I prefer comfy and casual clothes, the pants were made for me. After changing clothes I tie my blond hair in a high ponytail, my right ear piercing exposed.

Grabbing my bag and new version of Basketball Monthly I leave my house to get to school early. I didn't have time to actually read through the magazine because I was busy doing homework and watching volleyball videos, so I planned to read it at school. When I arrived at Karasuno High I decided to make a quick trip to the vending machine near the gym. Walking past the gym I hear the sounds of sneakers squeaking and balls hitting against the wooden floors. Taking a peek inside I see the boys volleyball team practicing.

I'll pull a Tetsu on them, I thought to myself and mischievously smiled as I used misdirection to walk into the gym and stand behind Daichi who was watching the team do drills. Quietly drinking from my can of coffee I watch the team spike and receive the volleyballs. There seemed to be a player that wasn't there doing the Seijoh game I watched. He was short and had spiky hair with a strike of blond dyed into his dark brown hair. His receives were experienced and nonchalant so I guessed that he was the libero.

"Ooh~ nice receive," I said from beside Daichi. It was loud enough for everyone to hear and they looked over.

"WHATYUFIHROw!?!" Everyone shouted and screamed when they saw me casually standing to Daichi.

Daichi also screamed and backed away from me. "How long were you there for?!"

"Hmm, for a while," I reply and shrug my shoulders. "I sure did scare you guys." I laugh at their expressions. "Now I understand why Tetsu finds this amusing sometimes."

"If you're there, say something you boke!" Tobio screams at me and I laugh even more.

"Sorry sorry," I wave it off and smile. "I heard noises and saw you guys practicing and wanted to see if I could steal any moves for later."

"Steal moves?" Shoyo asked and I gave a sly smile before walking off.

"For you to see and for me to know," I answer while walking towards the door. "See you later Tobio." I give them a wave without looking back and leave the gym.

Once I made it to class I sat down in my seat and opened up the magazine. Looking at each page one by one I saw each miracle except for Tetsu in the magazine. They each have an entire page just for them. Some other players caught my eyes like Kasamatsu Yukio, Takao Kazunari, and the Uncrowned Kings. It looks like each team is pretty good and I can see that when the GOM faces each other their games will be intense. Finishing looking through the magazine I put it into my bag and put my head on my desk, my arms being used as a pillow. I'll just sleep for a bit.

"Hey (Y/N)!" a voice shouts, ruining the perfect chance for me to get extra sleep.

Looking up I see Kaito standing in front of me. "Yo, what's up Kaito?"

"W-Well you are pretty close with Amu right?" he asks nervously and I immediately know where this conversation is going.

"Want me to set you two up?" I bluntly asked and he turned all shades of red.

"N-No.. Wait I mean.... YES PLEASE HELP!" he shouts and bows down so low that I thought he was going to hit my desk with his head.

"Okay I'll help you," I say and he looks up at me, his face full of happiness. "I'll give you some advice." I look into his eyes. "Amu has had a crush on you since the first week of school, hurry up and confess to her, she'll say yes."

"W-What?"

"You heard me, she likes you. Now ask her out, now," I respond and take out my phone. "Want proof? I have text messages between us."

"N-No it's fine!" Kaito loudly says, still flustered. "I-I'll confess to her today! Thank you (Y/N)!"

"Of course, but Kaito listen to me," Kaito looks at me and a serious look crosses my face. "If you ever hurt her I will hurt you ten times the amount you've hurt her. Understood?"

"Yes ma'am!" he booms and bows once again before going to his seat. A giddy look is on his face, his cheeks still flushed.

Ah, young love, I think to myself as I look out the window with my hand supporting my head. I wonder what I'll be like when I find lov- lov- yes that icky bitter happy feeling that people cry and find happiness over.

Soon more students started to fill the class and eventually the teacher came and the bell rang. School was just beginning and I was already tired. During lunch break I sat alone near the gym vending machine eating onigiri and drinking coffee. While I was lost in thought I didn't notice Tobio approaching me.

"-N. (Y/N). (Y/N) are you there?"

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked up to see Tobio looking down at me. "Ah, sorry Tobio I was thinking to myself. What's up?"

"I won't be able to practice with you today. We are playing against a neighborhood team today for practice," he explained.

"Ah that's fine," I reply. "Everyone else is busy with their clubs so it would only be me practicing alone." Then a thought came to me. "Hey Tobio, can I watch your practice? I want to observe some plays and that freak quick again."

"Yeah come by and I'll ask Daichi-san," he answered and I nodded.

"Want to eat with me?"

"Sure."

The final bell rang and everyone started getting up from their seats. I walked through the halls with Tobio by my side. When he reached the gym I sat on the stage while he went to the locker room to get changed. While waiting a beautiful black haired beauty walked into the gym wearing a black Karasuno tracksuit.

"A-Ah hello," she said when she saw me.

"Hello," I reply and nod my head. "I'm (Y/N), Kise (Y/N). I'm going to be watching practice for today if that is okay with you."

"That is fine," the beauty responded. "I'm the manager for the team, Shimizu Kiyoko. A pleasure to meet you Kise-san."

"Ah same Kiyoko-senpai. Also (Y/N) is fine," I say with a smile.

Soon the boys start coming out of the locker room. I greet them with a nod and they nod back to acknowledge me before they start stretching. Takeda-sensei stands by Kiyoko-senpai and soon the blond cashier from the Sakanoshita store comes into the gym. Following him are older men and the man explains that they are from the Neighborhood Association team. Soon they start setting up and dividing into teams. As they divide into teams the cashier notices me.

"And who are you?" he asks me and I feel all eyes on me.

"I'm (Y/N) and I'm just watching practice today," I reply.

"Ukai," he says before turning back to the boys.

I start to zone out until I hear Shoyo shout, "It's Asahi!" and I look over to see him holding up his body with the iron bar window. Ukai runs out to say something to him and then comes back in. I see a bearded man wearing the Karasuno uniform come into the gym and I blink in surprise before realizing that he is probably a third year who just looks like an adult. Asahi changed clothes and got on the court joining the Neighborhood Association team. I moved to sit next to Takeda-sensei and then the game began.

"Wow," I heard him mutter.

"As expected of adults," I say as we both gaze at the court. "They are physically stronger and their experience helps them make calculated moves. By the way, who's the libero? He's good and looks pretty cool."

"Ah, that's Nishinoya Yu, he was absent from the club because of a suspension." Takeda-sensei explained and I made a humming sound.

"For someone gone for over a month he doesn't show it. His moves are so experienced and refined," I say, observing him. "He is probably one of the best liberos I've seen and he still has room to improve. I bet he got scholarships from powerhouse schools."

"He's from Chidoriyama Junior High and he apparently won the best libero award."

"That's amazing!" I exclaim and think to myself that he must have had a good reason to come to a fallen powerhouse school. 

I suddenly felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I excused myself and left the gym without the boys noticing. Taking my phone out of my pocket I saw that Tetsu was calling me.

"Hey Tetsu!"

"Hello (Y/N). How are you?"

"I'm doing okay. What about you? Is something wrong? You usually don't call me unless something happens."

"I'm doing good. Well nothing bad happened, I just wanted to tell you that I found my new light."

"What?! You found your new light?! That's amazing Tetsu! He must be good, but I'm guessing he is not on Daiki's level though."

"I believe that he can one day surpass Aomine-kun. Besides he has me by his side and we promised to take down the Generation of Miracles."

"Haha! Well I'll be cheering for you guys. It's about time those guys get put in their place."

"You are also included in that (Y/N)."

"Huh me? I'm not a Miracle though. I never played with you guys so I never gained the title."

"Even so, you did manage us and have skills on par with them, so the title does apply to you even though you didn't play in actual games."

"Well then, I guess I'll prepare myself to face you and your new light."

"I will look forward to the day."

"Well it might be sooner than you think. I heard that you and Ryo are going to have a practice match on Sunday. I'll be watching it."

"Really?"

"Yeah, I can't wait to see you two. I haven't seen Ryo since summer and I haven't seen you since you disappeared before finals last year."

"(Y/N) I'm sorry about-

"It's okay Tetsu, don't apologize. It wasn't your fault that you left. In all honesty, if I was in your position I feel like I would have done the same. Anyways I got to go back in soon before they notice I'm gone. I'll see you soon Tetsu."

"Goodbye (Y/N)."

Tetsuya's POV

"Kuroko who were you calling?" Kagami asked me and I put my phone back into my bag.

"Just a friend," I reply and take a sip of my vanilla shake.

(Y/N) POV

I ended the call and stuffed my phone back into my pocket. I took a deep breath of air and sighed. Walking back in I noticed that the game was stopped and I saw Shoyo and Tobio yelling at each other. I raise an eyebrow and walk back to my spot next to Takeda-sensei. Tobio then said something to Shoyo and he nodded. The game continued and they rallied until Tobio sent Shoyo a toss. The freak quick. My eyes were wide open as I observed every second and every movement. From the jump, to the toss, to the moving of Shoyo's arm, to the swing, and finally to the spike.

"Again. Do it again," I whisper to myself as I watch the two play, a serious look on my face.

Again. Again. Again. One more time. Just do it one more time and I'll fully copy it.

"There, I got it," I blurt out as the ball hits against the court and a chilling smile appears on my face. "Your secret weapon is now mine."

"What are you talking about (Y/N)?" Takeda-sensei asks me and I glance over to see that he was looking at me.

"No, it's nothing. Don't worry about it," I reply and move my attention back to the court. The chilling smile was replaced with a gentle one. "Just talking to myself, that's all."

After a while the game ended and the Neighborhood Association team took the victory in the end. The boys were all panting and drinking water. I then got up from my seat and walked toward Tobio who was drinking from his bottle. I stopped in front of him and he looked at me.

"Tobio," I said as I looked at him, my golden eyes piercing. "I got it." I smiled at him to which his eyes widened and he stopped drinking his water.

He looked into my eyes. "So you can do it?" he asked and I nodded.

"It took a while to observe fully, but now I can copy it perfectly, perhaps even better and stronger than the original," I reply

Tobio puts down his water bottle and walks onto the court and I follow him. Everyone else has stopped what they were doing and looked at us in confusion. Tobio then grabs a ball and does a jump serve, serving it at me. I cleanly receive the ball and Tobio runs to my side of the net. I start running and he goes under the ball and sets it to me. Already in the air I slam the ball down when I see it come to me. The ball hits the floor with a smacking sound and I land on my two feet. Turning over I saw Tobio looking at me with wide eyes and we looked at each other in silence.

"Hell yeah!" we both shout and run up to each other with our hands in the air. We high five each other and I smile.

"How was that? Perfect right?!" I shout and Tobio nods furiously with a serious expression.

"That was perfect! It was quicker and stronger than Hinata's," Tobio replies. "Your eyes were open so you were able to aim it also."

"Even so it still feels a little weird so let's work on it later when we play the second years," I mumble and he nods.

"WHAT WAS THAT?! YOU CAN ALSO DO THAT FREAK QUICK?!" Ukai shouts and both Tobio and I flinch. I forgot about everyone else, we were stuck in our own little world.

"Er, I just copied Shoyo," I replied, shrugging my shoulders. "Anyways it's getting late, I'm going home."

"Oi! You can't just leave after that! Explain!" Ukai yells.

"Nah, I'm leaving," I reply and walk out of the gym waving.

"Come back here (Y/N)!" I hear someone shout and I run as I could to escape and avoid a bombardment of questions.

"You'll never catch me alive!" I shout as I run out of the school laughing. This would be a good story for Ryo to hear.
