The Prince of Tennis: D'Grass Court Queen

Chapter 43

Americs vs. Japan

Ryuki's Pov:

           The most awaiting match was about to start. I am sitting beside the rest of seigaku regulars whom isn't part of the match. Im really excited to see the fruit of their training.
           It will be a full match. Doubles 2 until single 1. The team who'll get a three win strikes will be the winner.

          "We will now be commencing the annual Goodwill game between Japan and America. We will start with doubles 2. Japan's rep Sanada, Genechiro and Atobe, Keigo vs. American's rep Michael Lee and Billy Cassidy. !"

           I look at the pair in amusement. I chuckled at coach sakaki. Japan's brave for putting this pair. Then, everyone start to cheer loudly.

          "The winner is atobe. Atobe!  Atobe!  The winner will be atobe!" I flinch at the crowd. Atobe snap his fingers then it got silent. I rolled my eyes. Annoying. -.-

           "Are you done atobe?"  Sanada asked stoicly.

           "satisfied.." He replied with a smirk.

           The match started. It's japan's serve. Everyone is watching intensely as both players were well known in terms of tennis.

           "Doubles eh ?" I said with a mocking tone.

           I snort. Those two weren't playing doubles. They were playing single on doubles court.

           "Be awed by oresama." Atobe qouted.

           But it seems like even though they were both great doubles still a doubles. They were being dominated by the opponent. But not until, sanada hit the ball on the opponent's hand snapping his racket then atobe hit his smash.

            "Hmm.. It seems like it can be called rondo. I'll call it, Tango towards destruction." Atobe muttered. I smirk. A tango, huh ?

           They managed to play doubles inspite of their attitudes. Japan won the first match.

           The next match is between Eiji and oshitari vs. Thr Griffey Brothers. They were both popular among women. They both good in terms of looks.

           The match started. I was kinda suspicious about the on going match. It seems like something is wrong. I feel like griffey brothers aren't doing anything. It feels like they were both good in tennis but they weren't exerting efforts.  I glared at their coach.

           He's manipulating them. The game. I shook my head dissapprovingly. But it seems like I need not to do anything. Eiji looks like channeled the brothers. Griffey brothers played with all and ended up winning. Japan lost doubles 1.

           For singles 3, it's Sengoku vs. Bobby Max. He's huge and kinda looks scary. Sengoku-kun is struggling on him but being a genius player, he use stamina battle as his plan. But eventually, they both got exhausted. Seems like his plan back fired. It was decided as a nul game.

           After that, I decided to get a drink. I was walking while doing some research about america's coach. I hate that guy. Just as I was about to walk on the vending machine, I saw coach baker talking to syusuuke.

           I can't hear what they were talking but I can see syusuuke's expression. Then I saw that coach smirk before he leaves. I finally walk on the machine then grab two ponta.
