A young teen sighed as they sat at their desk while staring out the large windows before them. Their blue eyes were much darker than the sky before them, but it was brighter than their black-blue hair that was cut short- yet long enough that it had to be pinned back by a pin on both sides. It wasn't long enough to be put in a ponytail or bun unless it was on the top of their head. A sad memory was playing in their head as they were free from class at this moment and had nothing better to do.

"Senpai!" They yelled as their short legs brought them close to the net. They looked at the silver haired male who quickly tossed the volleyball in his hands towards them. The teen who let the yell out was Shimizu Ryohei. They were a first year at the moment and was one of the main wing spikers on the team for Karasuno High School. They were just barely 155cm and it was noticeable as they were one of the shortest ones on the team- but it didn't matter as they made it up with speed and jump height.

Ryohei swung their arms behind them as they bent their knees- soon launching themselves up high into the air, arms rising into the position for a spike- but was instead met by tall players from the opposing team who had their arms up ready to block them. With gritted teeth, they still swung, but altered their direction to try and get around them, but failed to do so. "Noya-san!!" They yelled out in return, watching as the ball fell back on their side. Lucky for them, they had a quick libero who dived and received the ball just in time for it to bounce back up- avoiding the ground. "It's up!!" The boy known as Noya- Nishinoya Yuu- exclaimed as he pushed himself back onto his feet. They watched as their teammate Sawamura- Sawamura Daichi- received it as it was too low for their setter to toss. Their setter was Sugawara Koushi and he soon received the ball from Sawamura and tossed it into the air for another teammate- Azumane Asahi- their ace.

The tall male with his hair pulled back into a bun launched himself into the air just in time for Sugawara's toss and readied himself to spike- but just like Ryohei- it was blocked by the opposing team. Nishinoya dived to try and receive the ball like he had done before, but he was just a second too late and it was too close to the net for him to receive. Ryohei found themselves looking at the ground with a deep frown, feeling saddened at the fact it was blocked just like his. He had hoped this set would end in their victory, but it had not. They had lost, meaning they wouldn't be continuing on into the rest of the competition. Ryohei felt numb, not even looking at their teammates as they shook hands with the opposing team before gathering their stuff and soon left. It was a sad day for Karasuno and it could be felt in the aura all around the high schoolers who returned to their homes that night, depressed.

"Ryohei! There you are!!" A voice suddenly exclaimed, snapping the teen out of their memory. They blinked their eyes a couple of times before turning their head to see a friend of theirs and someone from the volleyball team- Tanaka Ryuunosuke. They looked at the tall bald teen who stood in front of their desk. "Oh, hey Ryuu. What's up?" They asked, not understanding why the delinquent looking teen was in their classroom. They were good friends, but due to the fact they weren't in the same classes this year made it much harder for the two to see each other- along with another known male, but that wasn't what was in front of him and was important right now. What was Tanaka doing here in his class after school? Didn't he have practice to go to?
