The Birth of A Volleyball Legend

2011. That was when earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, changing thousands of lives. And Kobayashi Yuki is just one of them. A month ago, he was just a normal boy, graduating from a small middle school in Fukushima and was excited to go to the high school. However, the disaster changed his life. He lost both parents, not because they died, but because they were still missing until now. He lost his home. He lost his friends. He lost his school. He lost everything. Having no choice, he moved to Tokyo, to a small, new orphanage to accommodate victims of the disaster who didn't have any home or wanted to change their lives in the biggest city in Japan. In his mind, all he wanted to do was enter a normal high school, do a part-time job, make some money to help the orphanage, and maybe if he were lucky enough he could be admitted into a good university with a scholarship. However, one challenge from the volleyball team and one half-Italian blonde boy turned everything upside down. Now, he was trapped inside the crazy team, being dragged into the mess. Inter-High. National Tournament. Volleyball. Those three words kept spinning around his life as he entered a crazy high school life. Can he strive in the place where he was unfamiliar with? Would he be a good volleyball player? And what does the future hold for him?

Aftermath

Beep… Beep… Beep…

Yuki didn't know what had happened to him. One moment, he remembered being in the middle of a study tour, and now he found himself in the middle of nowhere, accompanied by an annoying beeping sound.

'Where am I? Why is it so dark here? Oh, how stupid of me. I forgot to open my eyes.'

He opened his eyes slowly, trying to figure out at least where he was. However, he regretted that decision a second later when his eyes were blinded by the bright light above him.

"Urgh…" he groaned weakly at the sudden exposure. However, it was enough to gain the attention of the people around him, as he heard someone—likely some kids he was familiar with—squeal in excitement.

"YUKI-NII!"

"You finally woke up from your sleep!"

"We were so worried about you!"

"Please, don't do this again!"
