Chapter Five; Abilities
I widened my eyes at the sight before me. "Since you wont join the volleyball can you at least watch it with me?" Miyako asked with a smile. "U-Um..I...I.." I couldn't finish my sentence with my eyes glued onto the scene. All these players in position, jumping high, playing, running, out of breath. Is it wrong to want to be like them? At a time like this? At a place where I know I shouldn't be?
"Miyako, hey you made it." a dull but yet sweet voice said. I looked up to see a girl with dark black hair that fell just a little below her shoulders with a mole on the lower side of her chin. Her eyes were a soft grey that were behind a pair of glasses. "I sure did! Like always!" Miyako said and wheeled herself to the girl.
They shook hands gently and then Miyako pointed to me as she spoke. "This is a friend I met a while ago today. I was hoping she could watch the boys play a game with me." she said. The girl looked at me and sent me a genuine smile while holding her hand out.
"Hello, I'm Kiyoko Shimizu, the volleyball manger of Karasuno Highs volleyball club." she said. I took her hand and shook it. "Samantha Greenwood. I just transferred here today." I said. "Its great to meet you." she said and released me.
"She can watch with you. I'm sure no one will mind." she said. "Thank you Shimizu." Miyako said and wheeled herself to the side of the court followed by Shimizu. Dammit...dammit...dammit...it hurts..to see them playing so hard as I suffer quietly...just let me touch the ball one more time..."W-Why do you get to watch to the game so close?" I asked Miyako averting my eyes to the floor, not wanting to watch the game.
"When I got in my wheelchair I asked Shimizu if I could watch the game up close. I guess she felt bad for me so let me do so." she said and pushed up her glasses. "Anywho why aren't you watching?" she asked. "U-Um! Well you know..um.." I stumbled for words. "Did you know that boy Hinata played volleyball?" she asked.
"Eh!?" I said and slowly looked up. In fact he did play it. His bright hair could be spotted a mile away. A practice match with three on three. Interesting..."Trust me, you wont be disappointed by this." Miyako said. I smirked and shrugged my shoulders. "I'll be the judge of that." I said and started watching the fame with full concentration.
A guy with black hair spiked the ball impressively and that kid, Hinata did the unspeakable. From the moment #9 spiked the ball Hinata was already in the air and his eyes were closed. I squinted mine and I felt my mouth form into a smirk. Which means that #9 tossed it directly into Hinata's hands. My eyes went wide at realization.
"See! See!" Miyako said with bright eyes and shoved my arm repeatedly. Shimizu laughed. "Their our secret weapon of the team. Our quick duo." she said flatly. I can't stay here..if I do then I'll want to play but I can't play.. "I'll admit that their impressive." I said. Hinata screamed with joy as #9 kept a frown on his face.
I grabbed the hem of my shirt and tugged it. I can't play, so why am I torturing myself? Hinata jumped in the air as the blockers reached him yet as fast as lighting he fell and ran to the other side, both my eyes concentrated on him and #9. Just as I predicted #9 tossed a spike and Hinata slammed it on the floor perfectly with his damn eyes shut.
His jumps were high, his speed was full, and his abilities were miraculous. He reminded me of...the little giant. Yeah, the little giant. I knew that rumors were going around about how I and him would be playing a match against each other, 1 on 1. But that wont be happening since all they are is rumors and besides...no one knows where I am.
"Their tosses get more accurate everytime." I said. "Great observation!" Miyako said playfully with a thumbs up and grinned. "That's the true ability of Karasuno's volleyball team!" she said. "They look like their having so much fun." I whispered. I barley had fun playing volleyball...I mostly tried my best to make no mistakes or there would be consequences when I went home.
But those two aren't the only amazing players. #4 played his role as a Libero amazingly, #11 and #9 were strong blockers and yet the whole team together played extraordinary. Not as good as the players on my former team but not as bad either.
"Ah!" a loud scream was erupted from Miyako which made me flinch. I looked at saw the pure volleyball and a fast and almost inhuman like speed fly towards her. I wet my dry lips with my tongue before something kicked inside of me.
Don't do it! Stop!
My arms unknowingly came together and I felt a slap hit my wrist, the ball connecting with my skin leaving a burning feeling. I watched the ball fly perfectly, accurately, and strongly at #2 who caught it and instantly stared at me with wide eyes.
I froze as the whole gym turned quiet with everyone's pupils big and glued on me, Miyako's eyes were wide as well and her jaw was open.
Damn you Winter!
