Act 1.0
"Ugh! I'm so going to kill him!" Reira growled, stomping her way out of the university. Kaho with a bow of apology, quickly threw a glare at her brother and followed her friend. This had been the umpteenth time she argued with Nioh Masaharu. And the nth time she desperately wanted to strangle his soul out of his body so that she will be left in peace for the rest of her walking life.
"Chotto matte ne, Reira-kun!!" Kaho shouted, trying to keep pace with Reira's angry strides, "Its not wise for your age to stomp out like a defeated seven years old girl you know!!"
"I am not a defeated seven years old girl Ka-ho," Reira snarled, slowing her pace to half enabling Kaho to reach her in no time, "Its just...I couldn't take it anymore! I have to kill him, one way or the other!"
Kaho shook her head in sympathy and hooked an arm on Reira's right arm, "Sanada-kun will be mad if you kill one of his members."
And with the mention of Sanada, Reira's face swung from angry to frustrated, "Then I'll have to ask Genichirou the approval of killing that brat since the Kantou Regional Finals is now over!"
"Great!" Kaho sigh glumly, slapping a hand on her forehead, "I mean those word to discourage her, not to encourage her!" She muttered under her breath as she haplessly walk behind Reira who is still fuming about her great brother. Whatever will happen in days to come, Kaho doesn't want to think about it. All she has to do now is to scold Masaharu for his habit so that he might still keep his soul inside his body in many years to come.
And after five minutes of Reira's disappearance, Sanada couldn't help but to grimace, with the fact that he couldn't even think of any good idea to stop his cousin from possibly killing one of the regulars. He is actually growing tired of being a pouncing bag for Reira, instead of Nioh who is the cause of her frequent visits in his house...toppling it upside down. He has no certain idea of what to do to stop the con-artist from crossing his cousin whenever Nioh has the chance and oppurtunity to do so...that may also stop Reira from breaking Nioh's every bone.
"I could tell how hard it is to handle both Masaharu and Reira-san at the same time...ne Genichirou?" Yukimura interrupted, his soft voice strutting through Sanada's thoughts. "You just have no idea," Sanada replied eloquently.
So, when did this headache started?
It has been exactly three months ago...
When he, of all people, accidentally forgot his Japanese Literature notebook in Reira's flat when he payed her a visit. Too unusual right? Especially with someone like Sanada Genichirou. The ever focused fukubuchou of Rikkai's Junior division's Tennis Club. Which is very untypical of him.
So, what is he going to do about it?
Ask Yanagi. Or Yagyuu. Or maybe anyone who can stop them. Just to stop Nioh. And Reira along with it.
Because whatever he do with Nioh, Nioh wouldn't just listen. And so is Reira. She would just shrug him off with those puppy eyes of hers he hates to see.
"Mama, is Masaharu home?" Kaho called after opening the door in the kitchen. A pair of mischievous green eyes welcomed her as her mother didn't bothered to reply since the person she is looking is for is sitting comfortably at the kitchen counter. She took the sit across him and snatched a peach on the fruit basket.
"What seems to be the problem Kaho?" their mother asked, seeing her two children smirking at one another, "Did something happened in the university?"
