Nekoma woke up in cells separated into groups. Heads aching and ears ringing a series of groans of pain filled the room. How they got there? They had no idea.
"You boys ok?" Coach Nekomata said with worry for the boys. He was sharing a cell with Coach Naoi and Shibayama Yuuki.
Everyone was up except Yuuki and Lev who were starting to wake up. A chorus of 'fine' and 'yeah' were the simple responses Nekomata got.
"Well, now that you're all awake we can begin." A woman with black hair that was pulled up in a high ponytail and an evil smirk on her face clapped her hands together. Everyone looked at her with looks of hatred. Their anger washed off them in waves, creating a thick tension in the room.
"My name is Itazura Dira(mischievous dealer is the literal translation*), and the reason you all are here is that people every day are looking for young, strong and attractive people with amazing powers. I tell them the price and sell the people that they want off. I am a sensory type person so I know what your powers are by touching you, just in case you didn't know. But, for it to work, you have to be awake, and now that you are let's get started! Try not to struggle because I really don't like hurting people, ok!🤩" (The emoji is the only way to describe the woman's face.) Three men opened the first cell holding Lev, Yaku, Kenma and Kuroo.
"Please say your name for me so I know what to call you! If you don't I will address you through insults, m'kay?" She raised her hand to a peace sign with an innocent smile on her face as she walked to the first cell.
"You, can you tell me your friends' names please." Pointing at Lev who seemed unsure and looked to Kuroo for an answer. Kuroo nodded, letting him know that whatever happens next, he has Lev's back.
"I'm Lev Haiba, that's Yaku Morisuke, Kenma Kozume, and Kuroo Tetsurou." Pointing at the corresponding person with their name.
"😊 Thanks, see if you do that like Lev here I have no reason to harm you!" She turned to one of the men who was holding a clipboard and pen that no one noticed before. As Itazura Dira wrote things down she muttered "Kuroo--panther shifter. Yaku--human mood ring(can tell what a person is feeling).** Kenma--mind manipulator(can manipulate a person's mind by touching their target). Lev--lynx shifter."
As Itazura went on with each cell she slowly approached Coach Nekomata and Coach Naoi's cell with their petrified first year Shibayama. The process went on.
Inouka could speak to animals.
Fukunaga is another human mood ring.
Teshiro is a mage.
Yamamoto is a tiger shifter.
Kai was also a mage.
Finally, she approached the Coaches' cell. Shibayama was next to the coaches who looked relaxed but Shibayama knew they had the situation under control, he also knew in a minute, they wouldn't.
Itazura opened the gate and addressed Coach Nekomata.
"You have some well-behaved boys you know! What are your names? Hey, kid, relax, you're fine." Itazura said to Shibayama, she was feeling unsteady and was on high alert, which was unusual.
"I'm Coach Nekomata Yasufumi. This is the team's other coach, Coach Naoi Manabu, and our first-year Shibayama Yuuki. Also, I do try to keep them in control but boys will be boys." Nekomata was relaxed and smiling as though he was talking to a friend.
"Hahaha, ok Coach Nekomata." Itazura giggles at his joke. She continued her work like she had with the previous cells "Nekomata--mage, Naoi--mage and-" Before her hand touched Shibayama she jumped back out of the cell. Shibayama looked shocked and afraid, Itazura smiled an evil smile. "Shibayama-sama can you move to this cell?" This was, obviously, a demand and not a question. Everyone except Shibayama was confused as to why she called him as though talking to her employees.
