Midorima walked down the street in Tokyo as he held a handful of herbs in his hand.

"Can't believe they didn't have these herbs back in Osaka" mumbled Midorima annoyed. "Cancer scored low on the list today and Oha Asa's prediction told that these strongly aromatic herbs will help with the day"

He then stopped to look at a pole with a clock that was inside the park next to him.

"2 pm" mumbled Midorima. "23 hours until we will meet up"

Midorima walked into the park and looked around.

Not many people were there, so he decided to talk a small walk.

He wasn't able to go very far until his bad luck struck.

"Ah!" said Midorima as a sudden harsh wind blew from behind him and basically stole the herbs he held. "No, my lucky item!"

Luckly, the herbs were tied together at the stems, so they kept together. But unluckly, the wind continued to blow them away having Midorima chase after it.

A sudden seagull then came to dive down to the park pond, but it shrieked as the herbs hit it making the string tying the herbs together slip off.

All the herb plants scattered in the wind and blew off further way.

Midorima grunted annoyed and continued to run after the flying herbs.

The wind started to slow down and the herbs started to descend downwards infront of a tree in a secluded part of the park.

Midorima sighed in relief as he saw the herbs fall to the ground infront of the tree.

"*Sneeze*" suddenly came and caught his attention.

Midorima slowly looked down to see a black and white dog starting to wake up.

His blue eyes was revealed and looked up at him.

"Wait..." said Midorima studying the dog.

Midorima and the dog stared at eachother for a moment, until the dog suddenly barked happily and bounced on him.

"Oi, hey!" he yelled as the dog pounced on him.

"Nigou..." came a soft voice making them stop.

Midorima froze and looked at the tree again to find a blunette sitting there, rubbing his eye.

Nigou immidiently went off Midorima and happily went over to him as he sat up properly.

"What this smell?" he asked and put his hand down which landed on something. "Hm?"

He picked it up and looked at the lavender he was holding.

Nigou barked making him look up to see the green haired boy who was looking down at him in shock.

"Ah, Midorima-kun" said Kuroko and picked up all the herbs he found around him then stood up. "It's been a while. This was unexpected"

"Kuroko" nodded Midorima in greeting.

"I take it these are part of your lucky item of the day" said Kuroko and handed them over.

"Indeed" he nodded and sighed in relief when he held them again. "Oha Asa did say that Cancer would encounter someone suprising today"

Kuroko hummed and grabbed Nigou's lead as he ran around them.

"What's brings you here?" he then asked. "I believe I heard you went to Osaka to study"

"That is correct" said Midorima. "But for some reason the herb shops were all sold out on aromatic herbs, so I came here to get some"

"I see" said Kuroko.
