Four - Stop Thugs, Meets Team Teitan

A gust of wind and they are there.

There's a black-hair boy by Verona's side, wearing clothes similar to the Ancient Chinese Style, the colour of white and light blue, with a folded pack of black fabric bonded by his waist. The others stand right in front of the five thugs. One with short, silver hair with part of his bags covering his right eye, a girl with golden hair tied into a ponytail, sky blue eyes shining with determination and protection, and an innocent girl with white hair and sky blue eyes with glasses, holding a dart, aiming at one of the thugs. There is another girl already stopped a member of Team Bullies, who has long black hair and cold, black eyes.

"Who-What-" Everyone's reaction to the sudden appearance, except Verona.

Akashi can see that Silver is holding a gun as well as Gold, and Cold is holding daggers.

Who the hell are all these people?

"Guess it's time to take out whatever weapons you have in your pockets, huh? Before I command my team to knock you out." A voice, somewhat familiar, can be heard from the distance.

"How do you know?" Captain Bully asks.

"Ahem! Excuse me, but why am I seeing weird bulges showing on your pockets during the game? Aren't those shaped like knives?" Innocent says.

"Some look like guns," Gold says.

They're not scared.

The footsteps tap louder as the mystery commander enters the court.

"Well, what do we have here? Street fighters?" Ruby red eyes turn scarlet.

"Do you know the cost of putting pressure on her?"

"Brother. I'm fine. It was just a headache. I still haven't been able to control it well yet" Verona's voice is a bit shaky, but it's not Scarlet anymore, it's definitely Verona. At least, Akashi can tell there's a Scarlet Christina within Verona Christine.

But, Brother?

Wait. Who is this commander anyways?

"I'm glad that you're fine, but the next steps they would take is to start a street fight with your... I guess, friends?"

"Who are you?" Kagami manages bluntly.

"Oh, sorry. I haven't introduced myself properly yet. My name is Akakage Yukine. I am surprised to see that Kagami-san doesn't remember me. We played against each other in the Nationals, didn't we?"

"Akakage-san, are you feeling better?" Kuroko appears, scaring everyone except the newly entered people and Verona.

"Ah, yes I'm fine."

"Akakage Yukine. Have we met?" Akashi asks, sending a wave of chills down every other people, except, of course, the newly entered people.

"Of course, we have, Akashi-san. We played a one-on-one game together, right?"

"And you won."

Everyone is in shock, except, you know, already mentioned from above.

Akakage won a battle against Akashi? Is that even possible, with Akashi having the Emperor Eye completed?

"No, you won the game, even though I score more than you did."

"I still don't understand what you said that day."

"You have to understand that yourself. I can see you have realised the similarities of my little sister's basketball style."

"Y-yes."

"We rely on that principle. I believe you know what the principle is."

"Yeah..."

"Just asking..." Kagami interrupts, "From this... Group you have brought in, I can only remember two of them, and that's Chiharu Atsuko and Katsuki Shizuko. Can you, do an overall introduction?"

"First, you finished your job, right, Katsuki?"

"Yeah."

Everyone looks back at the group surrounded by Akakage's team: All knocked out. Just during that conversation, and Katsuki have done her job without a sound.

How the hell did she do that?!

"Okay, I'm Hiro Rei," Silver says.

"I'm Nide tia Ches, Rei's brother," Gold says.

"Wait, you're a boy?!" Kise asks in shock.

"Yeah..."

"Anyway, my name's Tamura Uchiha," White-Blue says.

"Assuming that only Verona's the girl in your Teitan team..." Kagami says.

"No, it's actually mainly girls... Nide and I are the only boys in this team." Akakage states awkwardly, "They are all girls except us. It's only because we made excuses like 'the girls here are all gender-fluid, and they all feel boyish when they play games', just like that, they can't argue so they let us play."

Awkward Silence.

"Let's go, guys. Our job here is done." Akakage claps his hands, breaking the silence, "Let's go, gather around and we're leaving, it's getting dark." Akakage smiles mischievously with a hint of creepiness.

"Oh, we're going this way, too," Kuroko says.

"I see. We're going with you guys, I guess, then."

"Question, what zodiac sign are you?" Midorima asks Akakage and Verona.

"Answer to that question, I'm Gemini," Akakage answers.

"I'm a Scorpio," Verona answers.

"Virgo..." Chiharu says, shyly.

"Capricorn," Katsuki says.

"I'm Aquarius, and same goes for my brother," Rei says.

"Kurokocchi's also an Aquarius!" Kise exclaims.

"There's nothing to be excited about, yellow duck," Rei insults Kise right in the face.

"So cruel~ QoQ."

"She swears, so be careful around her. If you piss her off, she will-"

"Swear in your face for a whole 30 minutes." Chiharu finishes Katsuki's sentence.

"Eh?!" Kise's now scared.

"There's worse. I have a brother- I guess he is now my brother since I'm adopted, he also has his full-blood-related sibling, Snow-neechan, and she is good buddies with Kazami-neechan and Rei-neechan." Chiharu sighs, "You want to know why?"

"Why?" Aomine joins in this conversation.

"Because they all swear... Loads..."

"Oh..."

"But honestly, I think that Rei-san suits you, she's good at makeup and hair, even though she doesn't do any of that on herself." Tamura smiles slyly, "And by the way, I'm a Scorpio.

"F**k you, 薛箐. Besides, Nide's better. He learns a lot from mom."

"Watch your language, Rei-san," Verona comments.

"No one here cares."

"Ahem, excuse me," Katsuki and Chiharu say and act the same thing at the same time.

"S**t, I hate you all."

"Watch it, again, sis," Nide comments. Rei ignores.

"Anyways, I think I can picture pairs now, including some gay couples."

"Why, Tamura?"

"'Cuz, I'm bored."

"I want to hear that, actually," Kise says.

"Fine. Akashi-san with Akakage, Kise-san with Nide-san, since Rei-san has a partner-"

"She does?" Aomine asks.

"You do?" Kise asks.

"I am not sexually attracted to any male. And that does mean I can be in love with girls."

"Let me continue, please. I was thinking of Miku-san being with you, Aomine-san. She's hot. Like, hot."

"No, I think you suit Aomine-san better, Tamura," Rei says with a hint of revenge and mischief.

"I hate you, Rei-san."

"Go on."

"Let's leave this argument. Calm down." Chiharu sighs.

"I guess we'll be departing," Akashi says.

"Uh, wait, Akashi-san~." Akakage says, "I am inviting you all, the Generation of Miracles, to my house, since I feel good today."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"You are one of a kind, just like Tetsuya."

"You mean 'unpredictable'?"

"Yeah."

"Well, I told you that day that I will murder the Emperor inside you, and the Emperor Eye seems never to take effect on me. It's certain in front of the ankle break technique when you used that on me."

"I hate to say it, but I have completely lost to you in that match."

"You still think that way, huh, Akashi-san? You still haven't changed since then. I told you that you are the winner of that match and that if I don't use my monstrous instincts, I wouldn't have won."

"I still don't understand."

"You'll find out if you are to be trustworthy."

As they talk, the others chat. Murasakibara's munching snacks, Aomine is chatting with Tamura, asking about the "Miku-san" she mentioned. Walking down the streets, they soon come to an apartment. It's big, as this apartment is meant for four roommates, and there are for roommates.

"Welcome!"

There is Lil' Red, hair red as fire, eyes of gold and Punky, with one side of her hair longer than the other side.

"Oh, looks like we got some guests~!" Lil' Red says cutely.

"That's new," Punky says.

"Hey, um, Miku-san?" Chiharu asks.

"Yes, I'm Miku," The size of her chest dazzles Aomine.

"Now, 魔鬼 Triangle, please be kind to our guests. Don't be so cold." Tamura sighs.

"It's rare we have guests. Do they have trouble keeping secrets? Because I want them to know what kind of condition they are in, and who we are." Burmudar Triangle says.

What's up?

It took me a while to finish this story. I was so excited for the Fist of Blue Sapphire, Detective Cona Movie 23, and I listened to the song BLUE SAPPHIRE by Hiroomi Tasaka for about 8 times... I was so desperate, realising I can't watch it without going to Japan!

Anyway, I hope you guys like this crappy chapter. Thank you!
