5 Chapter 4

Sirean's slumber was disturbed when her alarm rang. She groaned in frustration and reached out to her nightstand to turn it off. She slowly got up while rubbing her eyes and yawned at the same time. She looked at the clock to check the time

"6:00 am.... I guess I should get ready" Sirean said and went to the bathroom

After Sirean did her morning routine, she went downstairs with her bag in your right hand. And there she saw her brother in the kitchen making coffee for himself

"Oh? I thought practice today starts at 10?" The black haired male asked

"We'll be having a practice match today at 9 so we need to be early. It's a boys vs girls match" Sirean replied while preparing her bento

"What school?"

"Valentine University"

"That school? That's used to be a powerhouse? It was rumored that they were called the 'The Fallen Powerhouse' " when their coach stopped coaching the team due to retirement" He exclaimed making Sirean stiffle a laugh

"What's so funny?"

"Psh, you and your stories. That doesn't change my perspective towards them. Powerhouse or not, it's still the same because they can always improve to be stronger and besides you haven't seen them in a match before and so does I so don't you ever judge a book by its cover" Sirean protested

"We'll I guess you're right" he admitted defeat

"I always am, aren't I?" she boasted

"You're so good with your words that's why I'm proud to be your big bro" he said and ruffled her hazelnut hair

"Well I gotta go now. Coach might punish me for being late and when I mean punish, it means killing me in the process. Bye~" she said and ran off

"Ok, bye sis" he chuckled

Meanwhile with the Valentine boys....

The trip was quiet and peaceful until they came to a stop. Which was the Midnight University, it was more like Valentine University but it was bigger. They stared in awe by their windows. David and Kyler, the adviser of the club went out first and was greeted by a black haired woman with purple piercing eyes and a girl who had her blonde hair lowly braided.

"I assume you're the coach?"

"Oh, good morning. I'm Kyler Montello the faculty advisor of the team and this is David Alverez , the coach of the team and Summer Dy , the manager" Kyler introduced and shook hands with the ladies

"Umiko Ahagon, coach of team Midnight Angels and Karen Tendou, manager of the team" she replied and let's go of the handshake

The boys came out of the bus and started to unload their belongings. When they were done unloading, they faced the two ladies and bowed 90°

"Thank you for having us" they said in unison

Coach Umiko just smiled and them and slightly bowed her head. While Sirean was already at the school gate when she notice the bus and her coach talking with the other team members. Sirean entered the school's premises and started walking towards the gym when her coach took notice of her.

"Sirean" her coach called

Sirean immediately stopped at her tracks and faced her with smile causing the second years to swoon over her

"Good morning, coach" Sirean greeted while walking towards them

"Well since you're here, why don't you lead our visitors to the gym while I'll go talk to the staffs" her coach said

"Sure thing" Sirean replied and faced the boys "shall we?"

Some boys blushed at her gesture while Daniel just rolled his eyes

"A-are y-you r-really The Sirean Moon? One of the top five best spikers in the country? The Queen of the Court?" The boy that has spiky black hair with a blonde streak in the middle asked

Sirean chuckled at his question but when she heard the word 'Queen' her mood immediately changed. Sirean was emitting a dark aura that they didn't even notice except for a certain person and that is Evan Miles

"Yes, I am" she smiled but she instantly changed it into a death glare sending shivers down their spines

"Don't you dare mention the word 'Queen' in public or else I'll rip your limbs and feed it to the dogs, got that pal?" Sirean  menaced

They instantly nodded causing Sirean to give off a Queenly smile.

"Good. Now c'mon!" Sirean said as she led the group towards the gym

It was silently awkward but Sirean just couldn't take the awkwardness anymore so she decided to speak up

"So, how was your trip?" Sirean asked

"It was fine actually" the captain answered

"That's good to hear" she arrived infront of the gym's door "ok here we are. But before we go in, can I get your names and your positions?" You smiled

They nodded in unison

"Liam Jones, the captain" the brunet with brown fatherly eyes said

"I'm Oliver Dixon , setter" the guy with silver hair and silver eyes introduced

"William Davis, wing spiker or ace" the guy with long brown hair that was tied into a bun and brown nervous eyes said

Sirean nodded and proceeds to listening

"The name's Ethan Sawyer, libero" the spiky black haired boy said and smiled which Sirean smiled back making him blush

"I'm Jacob Connor, Your Majesty. I'm a wing spiker" he said as bowed politely making you chuckle. Jacob has this black spiky hair with a neatly trimmed undercut and a pair of amethyst orbs

"Micheal Samson, I'm a wing spiker"

"A-Alex Ford, wing spiker"

"Orion Huxley, middle blocker"

"Evan Miles, setter" the black haired boy with piercing dark blue eyes said bluntly making Sirean roll her eyes

"Noah Stone, middle blocker! Nice to meet you, Miss Moon" he said with a big smile on his face.

Sirean chuckled at his gesture and ruffled his hair. "Nice to meet you too, Noah. You're quite cute in that height of yours, Noah, you and Ethan to be exact. You're emitting a great amount of happy vibes, I like it"

"She touched Noah's hair and she also complimented him and Ethan~ I'm so jealous~" Jacob said while hugging himself

Sirean chuckled and went back to listening

"Daniel Brooks, middle blocker" the blonde haired guy with glasses said while staring at Sirean intimidatingly but she decided to ignore that and went on.

"Henry Miller, pinch server" the freckled boy said while blushing slightly

Sirean smiled at them "it's a pleasure to meet you all"

Sirean was about to open the gym door when she heard a familiar voice closing in. She immediately turned her head and saw a girl with short blonde hair running towards the team. Sirean were shocked but this didn't stop her from giving the girl a bear hug

"Xyria!!!!!!" Sirean ran towards her with arms open wide

Xyria was also happy to see her until she realized that Sirean was running towards her.

"W-wait Sirean slo-" Xyria was cut off when Sirean hugged her so tight. How could she not miss her childhood friend. It was already 3 years since the two of them hang out.

"I miss you!!!" Sirean said releasing her from the hug

She chuckled and smiled " I miss you too. So how are you?"

"I'm fine. Same old same" she smiled

The two of them were talking while walking towards the boys. While he boys were left dumbfounded after you left them and ran over to Xyria.

"Sorry about that" Sirean apologized

"It's fine, you know each other?" Oliver asked

"Yep, she's my childhood friend" Xyria answered

"By the way, what brings you here?" Sirean asked

"I'm here as a second manager of the team" she smiled

"Woah. That's good news" Sirean said

Until Sirean realized that they still haven't went inside yet.

"Oh wait, sorry. Let's go inside now" she apologized as she opened the door

"Morni-"

𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗸.

Sirean was caught off when a ball hit her forehead making Xyria panick

"Hey Miss Moon, a-are y-you alright?" Liam asked nervously

When the ball hit Sirean's face everyone in the gym stopped the things that they were doing and looked at her with terrified faces.

"What a great way to start the day....."
