1 PROLOGUE
"Mou Ippon!!"
shouts echoes in the large gymnasium
shoes squeaking as they come to contact with the shiny lacquered wooden floor
And sweats dripping down from the bodies of each person.
the Shiratorizawa boys volleyball club were all preparing for the Inter-high tournament that is fastly approaching.
"UKAI-SAN!!"
a red-headed woman carrying empty water bottles turned her body to the person calling her.
"Ohh Goshiki-kun, is something the matter?"
she asked the Cygnet [a/n: a young swan]
while slightly tilting her head to the side
"Ukai-san!, can you etto...
Can you please wrap my fingers?"
the young freshman flushed and asked the redhead
"Ahh, Sure! anything for you Goshiki-kun"
she smiled while fishing some bandages on her bag,
she then ushered the young boy to sit on the other available bench that is found on the sidelines of the gym.
as they sat on the bench while their other members are continuing their laps around the gym.
"Goshiki-kun, ya'know you could call me Akane, Ukai is just too formal for me, if that's okay with you," she told the boy whilst wrapping his fingers on his left hand.
"aye! Uka-- Akane-senpai" she smiled, as
the boy saluted using his right hand
the shout did not go unnoticed to some first and second years.
how lucky.
Ukai Akane,
the granddaughter of coach Ukai of Karasuno, and Cousin of Ukai Keishin.
Studying at Shiratorizawa Academy, you read it right minna at Shiratorizawa Academy.
Why did she not studied at Karasuno?
well, let's just say, they offered something that neither she nor her parents could never decline. much to her cousin's displeasure.
she is a third-year, almost 18 yrs old, and the youngest of her class.
She possessed long straight silky and bright red locks that ended on her hips, which were said to be as soft as a baby's bum,
piercing Green-emerald eyes that shine brighter than the stars in the sky,
Porcelain soft white skin.
a well-built body with curves at the right places.
and she is BLESSED with an average height (179 cm) for her age and gender.
[a/n: SANA ALL!!]
yep, she is gorgeous, but there is a slight flaw in her.
and that my friends are her personality.
She as well is like any girls,
Cute, kind, and gentle.
But when she gets angry
Well, all I can say is that,
It's the calm before the storm.
She would go all smiles and sunshine and rainbows, she would talk in a much more friendly voice.
One would think that there was nothing wrong and she was as if the friendliest person alive but inside,
Anger was already swirling, growing, and was ready to erupt.
And when the volcano erupts.
The Devil would pretty much be ashamed of comparing himself to the young lady.
And people would rather think that hell would be a much safer place than the calamity she left.
Though it would only happen when she was extremely pissed,
And her other features include the expressions and attitudes she makes,
Some would even say that when she frowns or gets irritated, they would see jet black carnivorous crows flocking behind her ready to be fed by the remains of the bodies of her enemies.
Well, you can't blame her that, she got those from her father's side of the family.
Especially her grandfather's.
And her boyish hidden side, which only shows when she gets to hold or ride her bike.
And when she steps on the court, oh you're in for a treat, you would really meet an entirely new person.
When she stands on the court, you would meet a serious, over-competitive and the tactical Akane, let's not forget that it is also one of the times her talkative mouth would just ..shut up...
She was both the starting setter and captain of the girl's volleyball team and the assistant coach/manager of the boy's team on Kitagawa Daiichi. on her Junior High days.
Currently, now she is the manager and student coach of the Shiratorizawa Boys Volleyball Club.
Her current circle of friends involves a giant blunt wild oaf,
A pretty and motherly ash-blonde haired setter/pinch server and another red-headed idiotic Demon
though their personalities may seem too different, the bonds and memories they made since they were in their first years ties them all together.
"AKANE-CHAAAAAAWWWWNNNNN!!!!!"
oh, speak of the devil himself.
tendou jumped and tackled the poor girl breathlessly.
"Satori, let go of Akane-san, she can't breathe."
Ushijima Wakatoshi the grand ace, bluntly stated walking at the direction of the two redheads, as the female one was trying her best to escape the deadly clutches of the redhead lanky guess monster.
"Oi!! Satori let go of Akane!"
Semi Eita appeared while smacking the back of the head of the blocker, whilst freeing the suffocated girl.
"THANK YOU, MOM!!" Akane Exclaimed at The setter/pinch server.
"What did you called me, Akane?!"
semi stated while the fire from hell came behind his body and his arms crossed in front of his chest.
"Nothing!, nothing! hehehehe"
She quickly answered afraid to face the ever so famous mother's wrath.
"YOU THREE STOP SLACKING, OR I WILL DOUBLE YOUR TRAINING!!"
The demon coach yelled at the 3 males.
"That's our cue, bye guys" she waves them goodbye as they continue they're laps around the court, and she jogs towards the side bench where both coaches are sitting paying close attention to each of their players' growth.
She sat on the other side of the bench with the other coaches.
Coach Saito spoke his thoughts about the upcoming tournament.
"Inter-high is getting nearer and nearer we have to organize a new training regime for the boys so that they would play at their 120% to play at the Nationals again."
"You're right coach, but Golden week is also fast approaching, it would give enough time for them to improve both their teamwork and individual strengths and for us to conduct the new regime."
Akane stated while looking up to the gym's ceilings lined with dozens of bright lights.
"Akane-san, you would join this year's Golden week?" Saito asked while lifting his glasses using two of his fingers, like the gesture all the anime guys would do when they have/wearing glasses.
"Yeah, you didn't go last year."
the coach Washijo said as he eyed the young student coach.
"Well last year, my grandfather was asking me for some help, and I cannot refuse him, he is my grandfather after all.
And besides my schedule on that week is miraculously flexible, so why not?" she brought her attention again to the court where the players are now doing their stretches.
"You're the one that has to cook by the way." the demon coach blankly stated while he was eyeing the court.
"Ehhhhh!!!!, But why??!"
Akane whined, her Head immediately turn towards demon couch.
"You are the reason why those three" he pointed at the 3 third years that are stretching on the court. "Are slacking off,
Do you really think that you're off the hook young lady?"
"Nope!, But coach~ have you seen any of their appetites? it would take me forever to finish cooking for them to satisfy their hunger, and I have to do that 3 times a day, for a week!" she whined at the demon coach again.
"Have fun with that." the demon coach smirks, he really enjoys listening to the complaints and agony of his rival's granddaughter.
"Besides that's your punishment if you want you could think of it as a new training regime, to enhance your stamina and upper body strength" he casually added shrugging his shoulders.
"Mou~" she pouted while looking away.
coach Saito chuckles at the young female manager and his older coach's antics.
he seriously treats her as his own daughter.
