Kuroko and His Siblings: Athletic Royals [1rst version]

Ch. 9: Her Best Defense Is Her Offense

"You got that right!" A high hyper voice rang out from the other side of the court. Everyone turned to face where it was coming from. A blonde blue-eyed girl was hopping over the fence that separated the stands from the basketball court. She was followed by an amber-eyed blonde girl. "When we came back, 'Tsuko-nii-tan trained Shi-nèe-tan so hard to the ground that her muscles ached a whole month!"

"'Roko-chin, Mi-chin," the purple giant acknowledged the girls. "Why are you here? Did you bring any cookies?"

"No." The first blonde said. "I didn't bake today, 'Bara-tan, 'cause I wanted to see 'Tsuya-nii-tan in action! But I was terribly disappointed. Why did you get my hopes up if you weren't going do your super awesome two-pointers, 'Tsuya-tan? Are your muscles frozen or you haven't been playing ping pong for the past couple weeks?"

"Not a word, Terumi," replied Tetsuya stoically. "Not a word."

"You didn't!" Terumi exclaimed. "You hadn't practiced your ping pong! I bet you hadn't practiced for the last couple of months either!"

Tetsuya remained quiet. The Generation of Miracles and the rest watched the siblings in curiosity, wanting to know a bit more about the Phantom.

"Not a couple months either, eh?" Terumi did a thinking pose. Then she snapped her finger. "I bet you hadn't played ping pong for the past three-five years either, haven't you?!"

Tetsuya flinched.

"Bingo." Tenshi quietly said as Terumi poked one of their brother's arms. "Four years. His biceps are not quite as formed as it was six years ago. I bet his stamina dropped by one hundred fifteen percent. Miwa-san, please send a text to Nii-sama."

"Already sent!" Miwa held up her phone. A ring tone was heard. Miwa opened her new message. "Aida-chibi-chan, the Young Master requested if you could double his training menu until he could run ten rounds around Seirin school ground in twenty minutes without fainting. If needed, he will lend you some of his pets and give you permission to withhold his vanilla milkshakes."

Tetsuya's face paled beyond comprehension. His sisters followed suite.

"What's wrong Kurokochii!" Kise yelled in worry.

Tenshi, Terumi, and Tetsuya shivered.

"I'd rather have my yakisoba/pork buns/vanilla milkshakes be withheld then face her daredevil pets." They said in unison.

"They cause too much trouble." said Terumi. "What happened to them anyway?!"

"The Gypsy Vanner Lady Penelope is on Grandpa Shouji's race farm-she's in foal; the sheepdogs Lord Fluffy and King Philip died within the past three years of old age; the Arabians Napoleon and Wind Chaser are in England for a show; Leon the St. Bernard is staying at Tenri's; Lyla the miniature schnauzer and Harold the German shepherd patrols the grounds on Yosen and Rakuzan respectively; and the new Pomeranian and Akita are living with him." Miwa listed all the animals she could remember. "I believe he also purchased a few ferrets, on the side."

"Ferrets?" Terumi echoed. "Are you sure, Miwa-tan?"

"Yep." Miwa nodded. "She had me look for some that nee-"

"Help!" A scream cut her off. "My child! They took my child! Please help me! They took my child!"

"Let's go see what is going on." said Akashi. "We should see what is going on."

Before anyone could say a word, the Generation of Miracles and Kagami disappeared.

"They are really the Generation of Idiots." Tenshi walked onto the court as she rolled her eyes. "Want to play one-on-one, Terumi? My offense against your defense? We're wearing the right clothes after all. Basketball skorts and t-shirt."
