Advertisement
I do not own KnB.
"Konnichiwa, may we enter?" Riko asks. Behind her, there are Seirin members, who also being invited to play along Kiseki no Sedai for today match. In front of them, there's standing the Kiseki no Sedai together with Kagami and Ogiwara.
"Yes, come in. We have been waiting." Akashi replies.
"You have a quite huge gym. Awesome." Hyuga comments.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"Ehmm! Let's start now!" Riko says with a grin.
"We need to set up the team first." Momoi interrupts.
"Everyone, gather" Akashi commands. Everyone follows.
"So, how should we divide our team?" Midorima asks.
"I want to team up with Tetsu," Aomine says.
"Me too!" Kise shouts.
"urgh..I don't want to be with you." Aomine disagrees.
"Ehh, why is that so?" Kise unsatisfied.
"Because you're too loud and you copy me!"
"I am not loud and that is my style!"
"Change your style then, it's annoying."
"I can't!"
Although Aomine said that he annoys but in reality, he quite impresses with Kise's ability. Only with the first sight and he already can copy the techniques. Just how can he do that!
"Ahomine! You are dragging time. I will team up with Kuroko since I am his light now." Kagami smirks.
"What!!" Aomine screams.
"That's the truth right?" Kagami continues on provoking Aomine.
"Kagami-kun, you're dragging the time too." Kuroko interrupts.
"Yeah, you're taking more time" Izuki agrees.
"You're not helping at all" Riko shakes her head.
"W-what?" Kagami speechless. As Kagami looks at the other nodding their head, he becomes a horror.
How come his own team colluding to impose him?!
"Hah! Serve you right, Bakagami."Aomine smirks.
"youuu..!"
"Dai-chan, stop it," Momoi begs.
"Okay stop right there. We need to go back to the topic here. Since them become hilarious." Akashi stares at Kagami and Aomine for a while causing them chill in nervous. Then, Akashi continues "We will randomly pick people for the team."
"Mine-chin and Kaga-chin are scolded." Murasakibara laughs as he eats his snack.
"Where did you get that from? I think I have thrown it away. Stop eating in the middle of the discussion." Midorima irritates.
"Don't want." Murasakibara chews his snack in front of Midorima. Now he is provoking Midorima.
"youuu.." Midorima is getting angry.
Seirin sighs.
Ogiwara just laugh.
"Are they always like this? I'm getting tired of this." Tsuchida says.
"But they are funny," Ogiwara says.
"Agreed" Kiyoshi laughs.
'Just where is the funny part?!' Seirin thought.
"When are we going to start the match?" Koganei almost crying in frustrations.
"I am sorry for the inconvenient. They just too hyper up." Akashi apologises to Seirin. He is smiling like nothing bothers him but inside who knows.
"It's okay.." Riko sweat drops.
"I have an idea. We will be voting by lucky. I have a paper here." Momoi says

"Good idea. That will settle our problem, Momoi-san" Kuroko smiles.
Momoi froze for a while. 'He changes back my name?'
"Momoi-san?" Kuroko asks.
"Ah.. Here. Could you help me tear it? I will go searching for a pen in my bag." Momoi goes back to her bag on the bench.
"I think she is holding her pen just now." Kuroko mumbles. He looks at the paper and tears it into small pieces.
A few seconds later, Momoi comes back. "Let's write numbers here. The first 7 number will be one group and the other 7 number will be in the other group."
They write the number on the small pieces of paper and fold it.
"So, who is playing?" Momoi asks as she opens her palm full of small fold paper.
One by one the player come out and take their number.
"We will be cheering," Furihata says. Mitobe, Fukuda, Tsuchida, Kawahara nod their head.
"The last one will be yours. It's a lucky charm, Tetsu-kun" Momoi says as she gives the last paper to Kuroko.
"Thank you, Momoi-san"
"So, what do you get guys?" Riko asks.
"The first 7 number will gather at my right side and the other numbers will gather at my left side" Momoi conducts.
One by one of them moves to their group according to their number.
"oho.. What an unexpected result" Riko grins.
"Akashi, Kiyoshi, Kise, Ogiwara, Kuroko, Hyuga in team one. Meanwhile, Izuki, Aomine, Kagami, Midorima, Koganei, Murasakibara will be in Team two." Momoi announces.
"Never expecting we will be in a group, Kuroko-kun," Ogiwara says with a grin.
"Me too, Ogiwara-kun," Kuroko says,
"Why is me with you?!" Aomine is frustrating as he looks at Kagami who will be team up with him.
"How should I know?!" Kagami furious.
"Oha-Asa said the true. Today is my bad day to be team up with this guy." Midorima sighs in frustrations.
"Mido-chin is loud," Murasakibara complains.
"Hahaa.. We in a team again buddy" Kiyoshi says to Hyuga.
"Why can't I be separated with him" Hyuga sighs. The truth is he quite happy with the result.
"A captain in a captain group. Interesting." Akashi says.
"Who will be the leader of your group?" Momoi asks Team 2.
All of them points at Midorima.
"It's decided then," Momoi says and writes the team name on the whiteboard.
"hmm. Oha-Asa does say I will get lucky when if the lucky charm is with me." Midorima smirks as he brought out his lucky charm from his pocket. A small dictionary.
"You're not going to play with that do you?" Aomine asks curiously.
"I am."
"Just how will you play with that?!" Aomine and Kagami unconsciously increasing their voice level just because of shock.
"I will tie it on my body."
"Whattt?!" now Seirin too are screaming.
"What a weirdo" Kawahira sweat drops.
"I'm done. Let's start now. Everyone warm up first" Momoi says.

=======
Momoi is the coach for team 1 and Riko is the coach for Team 2. For group 1, they have decided to make Hyuga become the captain. Why not Akashi? Because Akashi insists too. He wants to feel being under someone.
For the first round, the one who plays is Hyuga, Akashi, Kise, Ogiwara, Kuroko, Izuki, Aomine, Kagami, Midorima and Murasakibara. Team 2 are wearing a yellow jersey to differentiate between Team 1 and 2.
The score now is 12-14 with Team 2 leading. Thanks to Aomine and Kagami who are hyped up from the start, they keep on chasing the ball. However, with Akashi's specialities in predicting someone movement, he teams up with Kuroko's misdirection to bending his pass. In few second they already return the score with Hyuga's 3 pointer shot. Ogiwara is really good in team play, without taking much time he already can adapt to the others play. He also can see Kuroko's misdirection easily which are difficult for others. Midorima using his specialities by shooting the ball from the end of the court causing the other to annoy because it's just like him the only one concur the court. First round end with 20-18.
In the second round, Kise control the court. He does copy everyone movement and scores the goals. Although Murasakibara covers the goal, Kise copies Aomine's movement by bending his body which looks light he is flying in the air causing Murasakibara to fall into that trick. Murasakiba starts to get annoyed because he can't stop Kise. With the long legs of his, in a second he is already at the opponent goal. He makes a score with 3 pointers without breaking a sweat. Hyuga confiscates ball from Midorima and passes to Kise. However, Aomine blocks the path by standing in front of Kise. He thought he get the ball but it prove he wrong. Kuroko takes an action by using his Ignite pass to change the ball direction and pass it to Ogiwara, who is before this having a hard time in receiving his sudden pass but able to adapt in the second time he received Kuroko's pass. He then aims for the goal but being block by Murasakibara. He saw Akashi on his left and immediately pass the ball to Akashi. Akashi using his tracking move and score the goal easily. Second round end.
"Good play you guys, we are leading now" Momoi happily comments. She passes everyone their energy drink.
"Thank you, Momoi" Akashi smiles.
"That was tough. They are too powerful" Hyuga says.
"But you guys are good too." Kiyoshi comments.
"Yeah, not bad." Hyuga grins
"You okay?" Ogiwara asks Kuroko who breathing heavily. The other looks in concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little tired. This is more tiring than usual." Kuroko gives a small smile.
"You should rest for the next round." Kise advice with a worry look.
"I think I still can go on," Kuroko replies.
"You're playing in this condition is already impressive," Akashi says.
"Yeah, your passing feel nothing wrong and all of them are the awesome ones. However, by using that quite tiring right. Maybe you should rest for the next round." Ogiwara points at Kuroko's wheelchair.
"...Okay.." Kuroko replies with a slow tone. He didn't feel satisfy yet with his playing. He has stopped playing basketball for several months now, playing only two round will never feel enough.
"Don't worry Kuroko. I will do my best while you resting. In the fourth round, I will give back your position. Just for a while, you should rest." Kiyoshi soft talking to Kuroko, hoping the bluenette understand why they want him to take a break for a while. They don't want to see Kuroko collapse again just like the last time.
"Alright, senpai." Kuroko is forming a small smile. Agree with what they suggest him to do.
"Good decision Tetsu-kun," Momoi says.
"We need to start the third round now," Riko shouts from the other bench.
"We will go now. Pray for us Kuroko" Hyuga says.
"I will"
All the player already inside the court. Kagami looks at Kuroko with worry expression.
"Is he okay? Why do you substitute him?" He asks Hyuga.
"He's tired. We agree on giving him some time to rest. He will play again in the fourth round." Hyuga replies.
"Okay."
"Let's start."
========
The game end with 90-92 with Team 2 leading. Kuroko does get back in the fourth round with fully recharge energy. He just like a person who doesn't even have a sickness. The term of "desire gives someone life" really true. Kuroko does lust for a game and done it with an amazing show. Although Team 2 lost but they satisfy because they enjoy the game fully. Everyone practising team play.
They settle up everything and close the gym. Akashi welcoming the Seirin to sleep over at his house which they agree. They are just too tired to even walking, just how can they walk back home. Akashi asks for his father's maid to come and prepare them for dinner. He knows they will have no energy to cook after having a match with powerful people.
They had dinner around 7 pm and they already fall asleep at 10 pm. That night, everyone sleep together. Since Kuroko's room is large enough to occupy them, they decide to sleep in Kuroko's room together with the Kiseki no Sedai. Of course, there's another room for Momoi and Riko.
The sound of snores echoing around Kuroko's room showing how tired they are. Kuroko on the other half giggles as he hears the music continue to play. What music? That snore is music. Everyone have a different sound and when it combines the music feels funny.
"I have a great day. Thanks, everyone. I have no regret now" Kuroko mumbles before he falls asleep.

I am sorry for only wrote the match part on round 1 and 2 only. I have a hard time there and it quite taking my time. So I skip them. Sorry again and matta aishitee!
