The referee blew his whistle, signaling the end of the match. The game ended with Inouka's spike.

Set Count : 2 - 0 (25-21 ; 25-13)
Winner: Nekoma High School

Aino smiled triumphantly.

"Good job," she complimented, handing them water bottles.

As they made their way out of the gym, Aino said quietly to a Tsukinokizawa player, "Never heard of our school huh? Well, now you know."

Out of the corner of her eye, Aino saw the player shudder.

"Ahh! LUNCHHHHH~!" Aino exclaimed as they arrived at the dining area of Karasuno Sogou Sports Park Training Camp Center.

[A/N: Karasuno Sogou Sports Park (where Nekoma stays) is different from Karasuno High School Training Camp Facilities (where Karasuno stays)]

Aino munched on her food quickly, popping food into her mouth right after she swallows the other. The team sweatdropped, questioning themselves why the girl was so thin even though she devours her food like a hungry dog.

After 20 minutes of eating, the whole team sighed with satisfaction.

"Tastes really good," Kai said, rubbing his stomach.

Aino burped loudly, making the boys look at her direction, "Mhmm, you're right."

Kuroo sent her an irritated glare before standing up and grabbing her medium-length hair.

"Hey!" Aino shouted, trying to make Kuroo let go of her hair. "Learn some manners!" Kuroo shouted back. Aino pulled his hair so Kuroo was crouching and she was being dragged by Kuroo through her hair.

The team sweatdropped again. It was already normal to see them fighting.

"Like you have some manners!" Aino returned.

"Well you should act like a lady!" Kuroo howled.

"That's enough, that's enough!" Yaku came into action. He pulled the two apart, though they were still glaring at each other like kids.

"Quit fighting like five-year-olds!" Yaku scolded them in a motherly tone.

Aino turned around with crossed arms. "Yes mom.." She muttered in a mocking voice.

"You saying something Kuroo Aino?!" Yaku shouted.

Aino blushed, "Nothing."

Gathering the plates and bowls, Kuroo sighed in defeat. "Well, time to wash the dishes."

.~*~.~*~.

Aino watched the team practice; the ravenette can't help but smile at the improvement of the newcomers. It's not like she's boasting or anything but she is naturally talented so working her ass off is not really her thing. That's why it makes her really proud seeing newbies progress. 'Damn, I sound like an old man. When did I start picking up my brother's habits?' She thought to herself.

"Bend your knees a little, Yuuta-kun," Aino called out to the first year who was having a hard time receiving Fukunaga's serves.
