A/N: Hi guys! So, I decided that I was going to skip the meteor shower scene. It's probably going to be a Interlude Chapter, I still haven't made up my mind. But enjoy this chapter!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the sun rose over the horizon, it's sunlight peeked into the dark gym.
Slowly, everyone awoke from their deep slumber. Looking over, they saw the sun rising over the horizon.
"It's the last day here....do we really have to leave?" Hinata asked, his voice a soft whisper. "I know you don't want to leave. I don't want to either, but it's for the best of the family." Kageyama cooed, cradling Hinata close as he hugged him tight around his neck. "I know it's hard to have to leave the one place we call home, but deep down, I know we'll be able to return to this place. Our home." Suga smiled, his eyes sad as he spoke. "Do you really believe that to be the truth? Or are we fooling ourselves?" Hinata asked, tears slowly streaming down his cheeks and face. "I believe that it's the truth. I know that one day, once everything is back to normal, we'll be able to return." Suga smiled, leaning on his boyfriend's shoulder. "What if we get separated from each other? What if we don't ever find the cure? What if one of us dies?!" Hinata cried, hands gripping onto Kageyama's shirt as his tears fell.
"Hinata..." Suga sighed, his heart clenching in his chest as he watches the younger male cry.
"There is the possibility of any of those scenarios being true. But we can only hope, and live to see the light at the end of the tunnel. You need to be brave, and keep going. I know you're scared, we all are. But, we have to survive, no matter what." Yamaguchi said, his tone strong as Hinata looked up at him. "It's really a difficult road to walk alone. The fear of anything happening, it really haunts a person. But, it's not that you walk it alone. Because you have your family." Tsukishima said, his hand resting on his thigh.
"T-Tsukishima..." Hinata said, his words soft.
"Let's not worry about the future. We just need to worry about having as much fun as we can before we leave. So is anyone up for a round of volleyball?" Daichi spoke, a smile that helped ease the pain in the hearts of his family.
"Yosha!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After seven hours of playing volleyball, the team decided to take a break. But looking at the clock, it was only 5:30pm.
They had four hours before they leave.
"Guys, sit down. I have a small announcement to make." Daichi said, his voice soft.
Before he spoke, he let everyone sit down.
"I know that this is hard on all of you to have to leave. But no matter what happens in the future, we will still return to this gym. We'll survive, and make sure we return to our home. I want to know, that we all know we have hope." Daichi said, tears in his eyes that threatened to fall.
Standing tall with his hands behind his back, Daichi looked everyone in the eye as he began to chant.
"Karasuno!" Daichi yelled, a smile lighting everyone's features as they chanted with. "Fight!" Everyone yelled back as they pumped their fists in the air. "Karasuno!" Daichi repeated.
"Fight!"

9:30pm came too quick.
"Is everything ready to go?" Suga asked, looking back at the others.
"Yes." Noya said, his voice laced with sorrow. "Suga-san, may I do something before we leave?" Hinata asked, setting his bag that he was holding down. "Of course. What is that you wanted to do?" Suga asked, his eyes curious as he watched the teen intently.
As everyone stilled, Hinata ran into the large storage room, walking back out with a large banner.
It was the volleyball cheer banner.
"I know it seems really stupid to do this, but I want to know that if we ever come back, that it's Karasuno's home. Home of The Flying Crows." Hinata whispered, his voice soft as he spilled his feelings. "Hinata's right. This is our home, our safe haven through all of the rough times in life and now." Kageyama said, his voice thick with an indescribable emotion as he proudly stood tall.
Running to the small staircase, Hinata ran onto the small outer level with the banner dragging behind his feet. Hooking the clasp rings around the rail, Hinata dropped the banner; watching it flutter.
"It's perfect." Ennoshita smiled softly, his hands gripping his pants.
"Home of The Flying Crows." Daichi smiled, an idea popping into mind.
"Do we have anything that we can use to carve?" Daichi asked, looking over at Yamaguchi. "Yes Daichi-san." Yamaguchi nodded, pulling out a small carving knife.
Slowly making his way to the middle of the gym, Daichi kneeled on the floor. Slowly, making sure it was visible and neat, Daichi carved his name into the floor.
"We need to always remember that this is our home." Daichi smiled as he handed the knife to Suga. "Yeah." Suga sniffed softly, carving his name next to Daichi's. Standing to his feet, he walked over next to the Captain and stood by his side, proud of him for his bravery and his care for his team. His family.
"Hinata, do yours." Kageyama said, handing the knife to Hinata for him to finish. Slowly, Hinata carved his and Natsu's names next to each other's. Under Natsu's name, Hinata carved 'in living memory of my dear baby sister, rest in peace'.
Standing to his feet, Hinata wiped his stray tears before they fell.
"I miss her so much." Hinata sighed, burying his head in Kageyama's chest as he gripped his shirt. "It's going to be okay." Kageyama said, running his fingers through Hinata's ginger curls.
"No matter what life throws at us, we'll always pull through." Daichi said, picking up his backpack with the supplies.
"Let's go!" Daichi smiled, turning towards the door.
"Yosh!" the team yelled, their spirits high as they made their way into the broken sunset.
