Everyone goes to their teams after their discussion. Hinata, Kageyama. and Tanaka were on the same team as Yamaguchi, Tsukishima, and Nishinoya were their opponents. Since they didn't have anyone to note their scores, they convinced the security guard to do it for them and he called someone to take over his shift.

Kageyama couldn't help but feel excited as he goes to the other side of the net, his hands twitching from giddiness as he finally gets to play his passion sport again. A smile makes its way to his face as he grabs the ball from the ground and goes in position.

"Tobio, nice serve!" He hears Hinata cheer and he pictures himself back in the Nationals, serving for his team. People cheering for him as he scores for the team with his serves and intense tosses. His teammates give him a pat on the back as a job well done.

How Kageyama misses those moments so much.

He takes a slow deep breath before inhaling sharply as he throws the ball up, eyeing the ball as he follows it and does a powerful jump serve.

Everyone freezes in shock when it hits the ground with such force and speed, the ball landing right between Tsukishima and Nishinoya's feet.

Kageyama pants as he feels every bone in his body vibrate and ache, it nearly convinced him they were all broken. He winces, trying to hide the pain while everyone else stays distracted.

"WOAHHH!! Tobio that was so cool!!" Hinata cheers as he recovers from his shock, grinning from ear to ear as he looks at Kageyama. "That was fucking amazing! It almost looked like Oikawa's power serves!" The dark-haired man starts getting bashful, feeling a bit proud of himself for successfully hitting the ball whilst ignoring the last part Tanaka had said. Though he noticed how it was weaker than his past serves.

"I haven't seen someone serve like that again ever since our match with Seijoh and Inarizaki..." Yamaguchi mumbles as his best friend nods in agreement, both of them staring at the former captain of Seijoh in shock.

"Alright, alright! This got exciting!" Nishinoya exclaims, a smirk forming on his face as he stretches his arms. "It's been a while since I've last received a powerful serve!"

"Hey, Tobio." The said man hums in curiosity as Hinata looks at him with a determined look on his face. "Toss to me!"

Those words send chills running down Kageyama's spine as if he's been waiting for someone to say that to him. Kageyama lets out a breathy chuckle, picks the ball up, and points it to Hinata. "I was planning to."

Everyone got their focus back on the game, serious looks on their faces even though they were playing for fun. The security guard was giving them weird looks for their seriousness as he blows the whistle.

Kageyama takes another deep breath as he does another powerful serve, aiming for the sidelines but Nishinoya was quick to receive it this time. Kageyama clicks his tongue in irritation as the libero passes the ball to the opposite side of the net.

Tanaka receives it with ease and Kageyama quickly chases after the ball, going into position. "Shoyo!" He calls out and as he touches the ball, he was surprised to see Hinata already in mid-air, ready to spike.

He smirks and sets the ball straight into Hinata's palm where he hits it the second he felt the ball touch his skin.

Everyone was shocked once again as the ball hits the ground at lightning speed before anyone could process anything. The ball bounced off as the whole court was silent, including the security guard who was staring wide-eyed at the duo.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Nishinoya exclaims in shock as he recalls what happened. "Hinata, since when can you do quick attacks?!"

"I don't know! I didn't expect it either!" Hinata was just as shocked as everyone else was. He stares at his red palm, the ball had left a little sting but he can't help but smile. It felt good to him, to spike so perfectly like that. He wants to experience that again as he grows older.
