Vengeance from the Past

"So this is it huh… hmpf, I thought It'd be bigger"

I hopped out of the bus and smirked while scratching the non existing hairs on my chinny chin chin. The day had finally come. I'll show you Skittle.

"Omeditou Haise kun. We finally made it. "

Abi chan and Joma tagged along to help the team ready up for the Big Tournament, even though we really didn't need it heh. As long as my Hoopism stays intact, I'm positively sure we've gyatt this. The biggest challenge was survival.

Everyone followed behind as I led us toward the gym. The tournament was being held at Miller Grove High School, who's team were last years champions. We showed up at the crack of dawn since 7 matches were going to be played today, all back to back. Keeping up your stamina and health up to the finals was part of the challenge.

The sun was still rising and the sky was lookin nice and purty. No signs of rain storms or lightning or things of that nature today. We walked past all the other chumps from the other teams, and I noticed the smell of fear lingering in the air. Heh, they wouldn't stand a chance. There didn't seem to be any real competition in sight.

"Oi eferyuan. Just yondered a glance at da board. Looks like we'll be playing in dah first match. Ain't dat exciting."

I swear Hahaha did that accent on purpose.

"No cyapp that's tubular my ball brotha"

Damn. I didn't want to play so early.

"Who's our opponent"

"TTMSHS"

That name. Why did it sound familiar ? Hmmmm.

-

We changed into our uniforms and started to warm up a bit on our side of the court. As the other team arrived I felt a sudden shift in the atmosphere. A strong aura on the other side of the court was doing a full assault on my senses. There was a player with long greasy hair covering their face, and I couldn't make out who it was exactly. Something told me I dyehfinitely needed to keep an eye out for him.

Coach Ye called us over to the side.

"Well fellers this is it. There ain't no hoppin off this train that we're on."

AJ stuck out his hand.

"Come on fellas. Gyatts on three gyatts on three."

We all stacked our hands together.

"One two three."

"GYATTS"

Abi slapped me on the back.

"Now go rizz up that court like you've never rizzed before."

We all got into our positions. The time had come and so have we. Snail tard went up for the ball toss, as per usue. As the ref blew his whistle and tossed up the ball I heard a faint whisper from one of our opponents.

"domain expansion"

*gnnneueueurp*

A bright red aura began surrounding me.

The court and everyone there had all disappeared.

All except the one with the greasy hair.

"Long time no rizz overthinking hooper"

He tied his hair up into a bun.

*gyulp*

I couldn't dattebayo.

"KE- KENJU ?"

"Hai"

It had only been a few months since our previous encounter, but he was already an entirely different beast. His arms looked like cannons with his muscles larger than his head.

His aura was so strong my eyes began to water and I started gagging. I fell to my knees and gasped for air while clenching my chest.

"Geez Louise. That bad huh overthinking hooper. Well let's see how you like this"

"STAAAAAR FINGERRRRRRR"

Kenju pointed two fingers at me, which suddenly began to extend and blitz right at me, stabbing me in the chest.

"GYAHHHH"

I fell on my back.

My eyes were beyond irritated, making it incredibly difficult to see clearly. My hoopism isn't gonna do me any favors if I can't recover quick.

I slowly got back up, and my legs began to buckle.

"Oi oi oi. Just who the hell do you think I am."

Luckily Chrys sensei prepared me for battles like this.

I sprinted toward Kenju full speed, dropping back my body to do a slide tackle.

Kenju ducked down to block me, just as expected.

I then bounced back up doing a front flip midair with both legs extended forward.

Kenju stuck out his hands to grab my ankles, before I suddenly split my legs apart.

"You fell for it, fool. THUNDER CROSS SPLIT ATTACK"

With my arms crossed, I propelled forward to hit Kenju in the chest. Except, no matter how close I got I couldn't touch him.

"This is infinity"

Kenju slammed his palm against me, with a burst of energy following shortly after. I flew 10 meters through the air.

I fell to the ground in the fetal position. I wiped my mouth, smearing blood across my face. Blood ?

Kenju was actually damaging me. This fight. Was it not one of our usual delusions ?

"Yare yare. Even with all that training with Chrys you still can't put up a fight huh?"

He knows about Chrys ?

Kenju unsheathed his katana. It looked about 7 feet long.

"This is my masamune. You like?"

He thrust the sword into my right shoulder.

"GYAAAHHHHH"

This was a real fight.

*flehegehegugh*

A shadowy figure flew between us.

*cleeeeech*

The masamune snapped in half.

"NANIII?"

The figure appeared in front of me. I still couldn't see very clearly.

"Sorry for da hold up Haise."

It was AJ

"EHHHHH. ANNO… how did you"

"Don't worry about it. Sweet heart. Don't worry about it."

He handed me some nose plugs.

"This is for the aura."

Then he handed me an earring.

"And this is for us. Put it on your right ear."

AJ was wearing one already on his left.

I tink I know where this is going.

I clipped on th earring.

"Hold on who the hell let you in here. This fights between me and the overthinking hooper."

AJ turned to Kenju and put his thumb on his nose and wiggled his fingers.

"Nye nye nye nye nye"

Suddenly me and AJ flew into each other and a bright burst of light shot out. A cloud of smoke surrounded us.

"ALLLLLLLRIGHT"

As the smoke settled Kenju looked at us stunned.

"Who the hell are you. What happened to those posers?"

We smirked and tilted our head back.

"We are neither Haise or AJ. Call us… HJ"

Our fusion was successful.
