"Everyone, I'd like you to meet Ukai Keishin, coach Ukai's grandson." Takeda introduced. "He will be coaching you for Nekoma's match."

"U-UKAI?"
"BUT YOUR STORE'S NAME IS SAKANOSHITA."

"Oh, the store's from my mom's side. Anyways, go ahead and show me what you've got, the game starts at 6:30." Ukai said as he brought his phone out and proceeded to text someone.

The members started playing with eachother and receiving. Daichi began to think that something is missing, or rather someone.

'Oh no.' Yuji thought as tried running to the gym.

"Matsumoto-san! please listen!"

"Please give me your number!"
"How big is it?"
"Matsumoto-san!"

"I LIKE DICK! PLEASE TAKE A HINT!" Yuji yelled as his surroundings were filled with fangirls. The whole team and Asahi heard the chaos outside their gym.

"Oh! It's Yuji and Asahi-senpai!" Hinata yelled as he and Tanaka looked out the window.

"You're late! State your positions!" Ukai said as he looked at the jesus look-alike and the one surrounded by screaming girls.

"Wing spiker!" Asahi answered. "All-rounder! Tell me what position I need to play in!" said Yuji as Ukai managed to shoo the girls away, resulting to mean looks being thrown at him, but they complied anyways. Yuji sighed in relief as the sea of girls parted their ways.

"Thank you so much! I'm sorry for being late, I couldn't move because of them, and I don't even like girls! They scare me." he smiled at Ukai. He proceeded to enter the gym and acted like nothing happened.

"LUCKY!" Tanaka cried. Noya looked tense when he looked at Asahi. The Neighborhood Association Team entered and changed into their gear, same with Karasuno.

Yuji was teamed up with Kageyama, Hinata, Daichi, Tsukishima, and Tanaka while Asahi, Sugawara, and Nishinoya was in the other team.

Uchizawa started off with a regular serve. "I got it!" Daichi yelled as he received the ball, Kageyema set the ball to Tanaka, who spiked it down and earned a point for the team. Daichi went to the back of the line to serve. "Nice serve!" yelled Yuji as he stood bent his knees and got in position.

Daichi served the ball and Shimada received it, Sugawara set it up for Takinoue who spiked it. Yuji dived for the ball, his adrenaline taking over and caused him to move faster. He received it with one hand and brought it perfectly to Kageyama.

"Woah! that precision's insane!"

Kageyama set the ball and Hinata spiked it. "What the hell was that! Freaks!" Ukai said as he looked at the two as they looked at him with offended looks. Takeda looked at Ukai with a smug face and looked like a happy dog.

It was Daichi's serve once again. Shimada received the ball and Sugawara set it for Asahi, who was blocked by Kageyama, Tsukishima, and Hinata. Nishinoya did a block follow-up and Sugawara was contemplating on who to set it for. "Don't give up on him!" Kageyama yelled as Tsukishima smirked. "Who knew that king was a sadist."

"Really? I'm a masochist." Yuji thought.

"SUGAAaaAa" Asahi yelled. Suga looked at him and did a high set. Asahi broke through the block and spiked the ball down, which Yuji was unable to receive as it was too far from where he was.

"WAH! SO COOL!" Hinata yelled in awe.

The next rotation consisted of Yuji going to the front line. Tsukishima served the ball and Noya recieved it and Suga set it up for Takinoue. Yuji jumped up to block him with Daichi and Kageyama.

He saw Takinoue's eyes dart to his left for a second. Yuji smirked and shifted his arms to his left, successfully shutting the spike out. "Yay!" he celebrated. Tsukishima served again and directed it to Shimada who received it but it didn't go anywhere near Suga. Nishinoya received it, then Uchizawa brought it to the other side.

"Chance ball!" yelled Tanaka. Kageyama directed his set to Yuji. Asahi, Shimada, and Suga jumped up to block it. 'I can't slam pass through this block.' he thought. He spiked the ball at it's side and in a weird angle, making the momentum slower than normal so it wont get out of the line (basically a cross shot but weaker and the ball is spinning weirdly).

"WOAH! WHAT WAS THAT?" Hinata yelled excitedly. The move he made looked odd. Yuji rubbed the back of his neck and smiled sheepishly. "Cool right?"

"You're inflating his ego. Get your head in the game."

After the game, the other team had left, leaving Karasuno and their new coach. "I want you to work on your receives. We're going to practice hard tomorrow. Now, stretch." said Ukai.

As the team stretched, Ukai turned to Takeda. "Isn't that Matsumoto guy from the national team? You really hit jackpot there."

Takeda rubbed the back of his neck. "I know. I really think that Karasuno now has a chance of going to Nationals, especially with the new first years."

Ukai sighed. "I used to think about it before, but being a coach is actually hard." he looked at team as they finished stretching and told them to clean up.

After cleaning up, they all said their goodbyes and went home.

꧁༒•skip to training camp•༒꧂

As soon as they reached the camp, Hinata ran down and began opening all the doors. "WOAH!"

"Calm down, will you?" Kageyama said annoyed. "I've never been to a camp before. Spare me!" argued the sunshine. "I don't know what's so good with hanging out with this shabby baffoons." said Tsukishima as he appeared behind Kageyama.

"Tsukishima! There's nothing shabby when being 500 meters from Kiyoko-san!" Nishinoya scolded. "Oh, didn't you know? Shimizu leaves nearby, so she's going home once she finished." Sugawara said innocently. The duo was left face planted on the floor and crawling to the kitchen, in which they saw Kiyoko.

The malnourished faces they had suddenly became normal as they saw the beauty. Yuji walked behind Kiyoko as he held a plate filled with ingredients. He looked at the two and flashed them a bright smile. The two and even Kiyoko's faces brightened as they saw him.

"Wo-wow... I never realised Yuji was so beautiful." Tanaka said dreamily. Noya looked at Yuji who was cooking beside Kiyoko. "I-I just realised it now." The two looked at eachother with the same glint in their eyes. "We have a mission. Protect Karasuno's beauties." they said at the same time.

When everyone was called for dinner, they looked at the table to see a variety of food. Ranging from seafood to meat to vegtables. "Yuji-san cooked everything today." Takeda informed. Hinata looked at everything with start in his eyes. "Yuji-san! The perfect husband material!"

At this comment, Kageyama smacked the back of Hinata's head. "Don't say that. Baka!" he scolded. Yuji laughed and thanked Hinata for his compliment, also looking at Kageyama and gave him a wink, in which the setter blushed at.

Tanaka and Noya growled as they heard everything. Yuji stood up to serve more food. "Who wants seconds?" he asked. "Us please!"said the two as they gave him their plates.

After dinner, Kiyoko insisted on doing the dishes along with Takeda. Yuji had gone to the showers with the other first years. "Wha-YOU'RE SHOWERING WITH YUJI?" Noya yelled as he and Tanaka tried to come with but was stopped by Daichi.

"You're done with your baths. Leave him alone." he said coldly. The two shivered and slumped in defeat.

"Why the hell are they treating you like Kiyoko-senpai?" Tsukishima asked. "I don't blame them. Yuji's ethereal." Kageyama mumbled. Yuji flashed him a smile and thanked him. "Okay so now I understand why." said the human tangerine.

Yuji ignored their conversation, focusing on relaxing and feeling the warm water on his bare skin. He arched his back to fix his posture, making his back muscles flex. "HINATA!"

Yuji's eyes popped open to see Hinata now on the floor and Yamaguchi fanning him with his towel. He, along with Tsukishima, wheezed at this.

The five quickly put their clothes on and went off to bed. 'Tomorrow's another day of training. 'Maybe I could suggest my own regime to coach Ukai. I'll try.' he thought. Seconds later, he slowly drifted to sleep.
