The Little Dragon / Haikyuu!!

Yay, I'm gonna die. Wooo!

"-But I will literally die!" Satori Reo complained at the staff member sat behind the desk in Karasuno High schools staff room.

"Now, I don't want to hear that negative attitude. Look on the bright side." He looked up at her over his glasses whilst stacking papers.

"Yay, i'm gonna die. Wooo!" The new first year sarcastically retorted, before continuing on in her desperation; "Sir, I don't think you understand! I've worked my butt off for the past three years so I could prove myself in a high school team, and you're telling me the female volleyball team is not taking any more new players?" Heaving out a sigh, she balled up her fists at the staff member behind the desk, who was showing her no interest, nor care. "There has to be something you can do?"

The man looked up again at her softer tone, registering her look of defeat in her flushed cheeks that matched the colour of her firey red hair. "I don't know what else you expect me t-"

"Here, look"- She eagerly placed a sheet of paper on his desk, that looked an awful lot like a resume or profile- "I've played volleyball since childhood, since I was 2 to be precise. I was the captain of the girls volleyball team at Kitagawa. I have been training non stop with the Shiratorizawa Boys High school team for six months! Whatever you offer me, I promise I can do!"

The chattering behind had lowered in volume as the staff member stared at her, contemplating. She stared desperately as he blinked a couple of times. It was as if his blinks washed away all earlier contemplations as he sighed.

'This can't be it, right?' She thought to herself. 'I can't just stop playing volleyball now.'

"Look, i'm sorry -"

"Wait!" He was interrupted by a younger looking staff member, with big glasses and friendly eyes. "You trained with Shiratorizawa?" His eyes were wide as he asked her, and he seemed almost scared by her answer.

Without hesitation, Reo nodded as she stood up straighter. "My name is Satori Reo." She bowed, "My brother is a third year on the team. He let me practice all summer and a few months before that after I..." She quickly cut herself off after deciding not to tell her new school that she got suspended from her last. That probably wouldn't have been such a good play.

He brushed it off as he quickly stood up and made towards the exit doors of the staff room.

"Follow me, Satori."

It was still early in the morning, most students who weren't signing up for clubs had yet to arrive and the fresh smell of dew remained in the chilly air.

Although Takeda Sensei (he introduced himself as he travelled) walked briskly, Reo kept pace with him. After all, years of keeping up with Tendō made it easy whenever it came to keeping up with anyone else. 'Come to think of it', she pondered, 'I think he just walked quickly to cause me inconvenience.'

"Great news!" He beamed as he stormed into the gym, leaving Reo stood at the entrance, unsure of what to do. There were a few boys already there. A small ginger boy, next to an angry looking one, a boy with a buzz cut, another with silver hair and lastly, a kind faced boy. They all looked shocked as they turned towards the Sensei, glancing between him and the girl. She sensed a sort of tension in the air, and wondered if all of the people stood in the gym got along with eachother. The gym was nice, a good size for matches and large scale enough for a certain sense of freedom. "This is Satori Reo. She practiced with Shiratorizawa and will join your volley ball team. She is a first year. There's no places available for her in the girls team."

All eyes were on Reo as she stood in the doorway. 'The boys team?' she was shocked herself. She wondered if this was even allowed, but then quietened her thoughts, reminding herself to be grateful she can still play. Any team is better than no team at all. Anyways, how bad could the boys be?
