Stop Apologizing (Haikyuu)

Haikyuu Scenario:

3'rd Person P.O.V

Karasuno boys volleybal club had been invited to Shiratorizawa, for a week long training camp and a very strange thing had occured. It was after practice that this had token place and it started with "Kenjirō-nii, why don't you come watch us. We need some external observations!" The person who shouted that was a girl that looked like Shirabu, and was a Shirabu, her name being Shirabu Rikasui, 2'nd year and soon to be vice-captain of Shiratorizawa's girls volleybal team. Shirabu who heard this and looked at Ushijima, and seeing as though he didn't really care, he bowed and left. Meanwhile, Tendou was bothering Tsukishima, my what a snarky combination as the content of the conversation was unkown. "Hey, want to follow Shirabu with me and watch the girls. There's a cool middle blocker there and an interesting setter." Tsukishima was becoming iritated by the older boy and Kageyama who was walking by and stopped and turned towards the red haired 3'rd year. "Let's go, the 3 of us," Tendou said, an evil grin on his features. 'Let's see how much she can handle it and Shirabu will withstand till he blows.'

"Hold it, I haven't agreed y-"

"Why don't you go Tsukishima," Daichi said from behind. There was no room for argument as Tsukishima was dragged by Tendou, Kageyama silently walking behind him. Hinata, who just finished practicing receives went bouncing around looking for the black-haired setter. "If it's about Kageyama, he went with Tsukishima and the Tendou guy," Tanaka said. 

"Where, where," Hinata asked.

"To watch the girls' team." Ukai who had caught wind of this twitched his ear and shouted "Karasuno gather up." Karasuno stopped what they were doing and gathered aroud Ukai, as the said man looked at Shiratorizawa's coach for aprroval. The man nodded and Ukai then said "We'll watch the girls' team to learn about Shiratorizawa's other style. They're also really good so don't get surprised and don't get out of hand, understood."

"Hai," the Karasuno team answered as Shiratorizawa's team looked at them. Ushijima uncharacteristically sighed and the Karasuno team went on their way, a first year volunteering to guide them. Meanwhile in the girls' gym, there was a practice match going on, the score being 24-23. "Rikan, kill them with your serve."

"Hasana, focus." Rikasui threw the ball up, and ran forward, jumping as well. Her hand connected with the ball. It was a fast and hard hit, a bit slower than Asahi's but with more power surprisingly and a blond haired girl received the ball calmly, seemingly the libero. Her name was Ozashisa Hasana, a 2'nd year libero. The ball flew in the air as the 3'rd year vice captain smiled. Her name Shirasu Nakanochi and she called out to the spikers, to run up. She set the ball to a white haired girl, her name being Asagao Yurane, 3'rd year wing spiker. "3 blockers," shouted Minaswa Hakano, 1'st year middle blocker. The 3 blockers was the ace and 3'rd year captain, Senba Mashinana, 1'st year wing spiker, Kasayuki Kaname, as well as 1'st year setter, Manami Kaori. Asagao proceeded to go into a feint, quickly transitioning, but Senba and and Manami leaned back, Manami quickly touching the floor, before the feint touched the ground and landed on one hand, receiving with the other. This was a strange move, as usually there would be someone to follow up, but there wasn't. Rikasui, the soon to be 2'nd year captain, Chihiro San'nan and the 2'nd year middle blocker, also San'nan's twin, Chihiro Akane were prepared to receive. why did this happen, well to be completely blunt Asagao was better at crosses and they had faith in the other 3, they decided to brace themselves for more crosses. Tsukishima silently widened his eyes and Tendou smirked. Kenjirō looked on blankly and Kageyama twitched. "Nice Kao-chin," shouted Tendou to the 1'st year setter. The setter didn't seem to mind, ignoring him as she moved out of the way for any follow-ups. She utilised the momentum from moving out of the way and slid to the middle front, getting ready as the San'an steadily setted the ball. Senba was already in the air as this happened, a minus tempo attack occured as she smashed through the 4 blockers. The remaining Karasuno boys came by then and they looked in awe at the ace of the girls' team. She looked really cool to the boys which wasn't surprising. Rikasui went to serve agian, and the same thing happened, until Asagao aimed in the space beside Kaori, right in front of the net. Manami who saw thsi quickly did a 360 turn, careful to not make contact with the nat as she used the momentum to slightly go downwards. Her foot connected with the ball cleanly but sadly, no one was fast enough to do a follow-up.  "Sorry 'bout that," shouted Rikasui as she was the closest, discluding the airborne 3. The rest of the team didn't mind as the other team prepared to serve. On the other team, Minasawa was ready to serve, as she did a jump-floater. However, San'an calmly received the ball, as Akane smiled. Both, Akane and Senba, ran forward as the ball was still airborne. Manami was already in setting position, as she closed her eyes. The moment her hands came in contact with the ball, Kasayuki ran forward and jumped. The ball conected with Akane's hand perfectly, as she had 1 blocker, while 2 were on Senba, along with 1 on Kasayuki. No one was able to touch the ball as it landed on the ground with a bam. "1 more," Senba shouted as the other girls looked on. Kasayuki was up to serve, as she did a jump serve, the ball going at irregular speeds. The game endded and the team Senba was on won. The cheering was broke however, as a certain girl went on her knees. Karasuno who where in awe got surprised at they looked at the below eye-level girl. "I AM SINCERELY SORRY. I MUST APOLOGIZE FOR MY INACURATE SETS," the girl said as she slammed her head on the hard wooden floor. The girl was Manami as blood could be seen when her head came up from the floor. Kenjirō sighed and Tendou snorted. The soon to be captain turned to her and tried to calm her down as she called for a mop and bandages. However Akane casually added "Look at her twin, she learned a new technique, don't make the blood go on the floor. Kao-chin, your amazing." The Karasuno boys couldn't help but be worried. "Worriesome right. I don't know if this will make you fell any better but this is normal" Shirasu said, popping out of nowhere. "Nice to meet you boys, you must be Karasuno. I'm Shirasu Nakanochi, the vice-captain here." Shirasu's hand was out as Daichi smiled and shook her hand. Meanwhile, Senba went up to Manami and patted her head. "Don't worry, they were easy to hit and it felt really good." The boys couldn't help but sweatdrop as they introduced themselves. Some of the girls' team free members introduced themselves as San'an told them who Manami is. All of a sudden, Hinata went up to her. "Can we play with you guys," he asked. Daichi was about to stop him but Tendou hollered from the rails "Why don't you just do different random combos. I mean, there's not enough time for a match today." Daichi turned to the 'Guesse Monster' and sighed. "Tendou-kun," Shirasu murmered. The 2 parties ended up agreeing and Tsukishima and Kageyama went down to their team to join them (not forcefully *sarcastic voice) as they practiced and aqquainted themselves. Hinata immediately ran up to Manami and shouted "Please set for me!" Kageyama who heard had an itimidating look on his face as he heard this and Manami nodded her head, looking a little worried. Rikasui decided to join the 2 for receives and they started their pseudo 'match'. At one point, Kageyama, started respecting manami, and was creeping her out by his gaze. All of a sudden, Kageyama went up to Manami, catching everyones attention. Manami turned to face Kageyama... only to be bombarded by questions. "What do you think of when you set?

How do you train?

What do you do when you want to do a dump?" Manami had no time to breath as she quickly answered the questions. Everyone watched in awe as Manami was able to keep up with Kageyama, until... Manami slammed her head on the ground once again. "I am terribly sorry Kageyama-san but I am not able to keep up. Asking someone as incompetent is probably a waste of time." Kageyama didn't know what to do and looked baffled. All of a sudden, an unexpected person stepped in. "Kaori, thats enough for today. Like I say every day, your not incompetent and no one thinks that. Lets go and set for Ushijima-san."

"Kenjiro-san," Manami murmured. Kenjiro was the one surprisingly who butted in. Kenjiro patted Manami's head and gave her a small hug. He then led then younger girl to the gym where Ushijima was. Karasuno was baffled and Kageyama was stone cold. He looked at Hinata as the orange haired ball of hyperness insulted Kageyama for his people skills. Regardless, everyone else started playing and talking to each other, roducing a good learning experience.

Meanwhile Manami, Kenjiro and Ushijima were practcing together. Ushijima, although not showing this to other people, he had a soft side for the female setter. At the end of the session, Ushijima ruffled Manami's hair and nodded. Manami stood there stifly and Kenjiro gave her a few tips. Also, an old man smiled in the background. It was Washijo and he silently thought to himself. 'That girl is really talented, and she is effecting the boys positively as well.'
