Out of Order

Hey you guys:) I didn't plan on making this chapter this long....but it kind of happened....and finally here is Hikaru's new look...Leave me some comments on what you think...

Michiyo sat in the dugout looking out at the rain. Hikaru was listing to her beats beside Michiyo resting now that she had dry hair and dry clothes. Alex was trying to get his strawberry milks back from Kuramochi, who had taken it while the boy wasn't looking. Haruichi was trying to break the two up. Miyuki was sitting by Hikaru relaxing a little, trying to ignore his teammates. Shirasu and Souhei were talking about random things. Kawakami was keeping his shoulder warm. Furuya had went back into a daze sleep. Zono was trying his best not to hurt his teammates. The oldest Sawamura you may ask? Well he was still practicing in the rain.

"This is a long pause." Michiyo said

"We can't really resume the game so quickly with the field in the shape it's in...But it would be a pain if we had to reschedule it also." Hikaru said shocking Michiyo and Miyuki

"You heard me?" Michiyo asked

"My song was switching, when you started talking." Hikaru said slipping the beats off her ears

"Oh....you're weird!" Michiyo said honestly

Before Hikaru could reply Coach Kataoka caught her attention. Coach Kataoka turned to Tetsumi and said:

"What is Mukai's pitching count?" he asked

Tetsumi looked down at her notebook then replied:

"Sixty-two."

"He hasn't thrown any meatballs yet. But his pitch count is pretty high." The club advisor said

"This pause should've put Mukai off his game." Coach Kataoka said

The team all turned to their coach when Coach Kataoka turned to them.

"If he throws any meatballs, swing at them no matter what!" Coach Kataoka shouted

"YES SIR!" The team shouted

--------------------------------

The game finally started back. Miyuki was now up to bat while Hikaru sat in the batter's circle. She watched as Taiyo threw his first pitch to Miyuki. Miyuki made contact with shocked Taiyo and Inui but made a roar appear from Seido's corner. Hikaru stood up and walked over to the batter's box.

'Che. A double right after we resume? So you have gotten better.' Hikaru thought

As Hikaru made it to the batter's box she noticed Taiyo licking his lips. Hikaru sighed, she knew that she had to be serious this at bat she couldn't just strike out. Hikaru knew that Taiyo would want to strike the next herself and the next two batters out. She knew Miyuki standing on second base was going to bug Taiyo. Hikaru closed her eyes then opened them as she stepped in the batter's box. As she looked at the field in front of her it was like the open areas to hit were shinned on with a flashlight. She could easily tell how the Teito players felt and what direction was their weakest....this was what Hikaru had been training for the ability that surpassed Extreme Focus. Hikaru smirked once Taiyo threw his first pitch to Hikaru

"Low inside." Hikaru whispered

Inui looked shocked before Inui could warn Taiyo he threw the ball. Hikaru pulled her right arm close to her body and made a small batting circle. Taiyo heard it and Miyuki barely had time to duck as the ball soared over his head. Miyuki made it to third while Hikaru slid into first.

"OI HIKARU WHAT WAS THAT?!"Eijun asked

"Che. I swung early by a second....oh well." Hikaru thought
