Ayanokouji POV

A few minutes have passed since Shigeru Takemoto who was one of the contestants for the Swimming Contest event left the room. The atmosphere in the room was still the same as the one before I took a nap.

The whispers by my classmates can be heard all over the classroom. The television is now showing the indoor swimming pool of the school. More seconds passed and the whispers made by my classmates are still heard but it was stopped when the doors slide open revealing Katsuragi and Morishige entering the room. As they were going to their seats to sit down they were congratulated by our classmates. It seems like they anticipated that we would win since Katsuragi was one of the contestants on our side. Morishige quietly thanked those who congratulated him while Katsuragi nods towards them and sits on his seat.

Just then, Mashima-sensei started speaking from the speaker.

"Well, I'm going to announce the results of the Math Test event. The test had a 75 questions, From Class A, Katsuragi Kohei - 70 and Morishige 67. From Class C, Mei-yu Wang, 73 and Matsushita Chiaki, 63. Meaning, Class A are the victors of this event.

As Mashima-sensei declared that we won this event my classmates burst into joy though they didn't exaggerate it too much so that they wouldn't disturb the people inside the classrooms next to us. Of course they once again congratulated Katsuragi and Morishige to which they thanked them in on orderly and quiet manner.

But then again, we almost lost this event. There was only a one point difference between Class A and C's score. But luckily enough we managed to take the win on this event. With this, we now tied up to Class C.

The congratulation done by classmates were interrupted as Mashima-sensei continued talking.

"We will now begin Swimming Contest Event. The rules are simple in this event, first one to the other side then go back to where they started wins this event. The is about 50 meters long making it an Olympic size pool.

At one end of the swimming pool we can see the contestants of this event. One of the contestants is our classmate, Takemoto Shigeru. The other contestant is from Class C, Onodera Kayano. If I have to say who I think is going to win then, it would be Onodera. She is an athlete and a member of the Swim Club so that gives her an advantage. As for Morishige, I've seen him swim very well on one of our PE Classes in the pool. But he isn't an athlete nor is he a member of the Swim Club so the odds are against him. 

Both Takemoto and an Onodera take their positions on the diving , the teacher who is supervising the event puts a whistle on her lips and blows on to it starting the race.

Takemoto and Onodera immediately jump towards the water underneath them. Both of them is swimming fast but it is quite clearly that Onodera is much more faster that Takemoto and is making a gap between them. Seconds have passed and the gap between Onodera and Takemoto is now wide. Just then, Onodera arrives at the other end and is now going back to the starting point. Soon Takemoto arrives at the other side and is chasing after Onodera but this time he is going much more faster compared when the match started. Takemoto was about to pass Onodera but she got faster and made a gap between her and him again.

Onodera and Takemoto was now near the starting point however, the gap between them is large though it appears to be shrinking as Takemoto is going fast but I already knew who was going to win at this point so I decided to avert my eyes from the television and onto to my classmates who were watching the television with worry on faces.

As I was still looking at my worried classmates I heard a whistle being blow from the television.

I looked at the television and saw Onodera coming out off the water first with a face befitting one who had a battle then is followed by Tekemoto with a slight sad face.
