"Kageyama-kun!!"
Since the club knew about Nishinoya's and Hinata's secret, the two players didn't bother to hide their wings in practice. It was easier for the remaining club members too, adapting to the showing wings and using them in practice brought them onto new levels and no one collided anymore with another player.

"What?!" the setter snapped and Hinata above him flinched. Kageyama hated it how Hinata used Daichi's permission to fly during practice and always flew above him to tower over him. Hinata loved it to feel tall, Kageyama loved it to be taller than Hinata.
"Wow chill out Kageyama~ I want to have the highest toss you can give!"
Kageyama raised one eyebrow but understood what Hinata wanted. Yachi smiled and held up a ball.
"I'll throw the ball!"
Kageyama got himself into his position and tossed the ball as high as possible; Hinata opened his wings and darted straight as an arrow up into the air and a few meters above the net he smashed the round object in full force onto the ground.

"What a pity we can't play like that! Even Dateko wouldn't see any light with those spikes," Suga chuckled and shifted his gaze to Tanaka, who practiced with Nishinoya his receives and stared in awe whenever Noya flew horizontal over the court to receive his spikes.
"NICE RECEIVE!!" Tanaka yelled and highfived Nishinoya who laughed in return, but all of a sudden Hinata froze and paled.
"Someone's coming!! Nishinoya, our charms!!" he cried out and both boys dived straight towards the bench, colliding with the wooden texture in the same second the Nekoma team entered the gym.
"Ohoho~! What do we have here~?" Kuroo purred. Nishinoya had been closer and managed to grab his charm just in time, but once again, Hinata failed. Much to his delight, only Kuroo saw his wings before he got a hold on his charm.

"What do you mean?" Daichi said collected and calm, stepping inbetween Kuroo and Hinata to block his view. It didn't quite work though, since Kuroo was taller than him.
"Your little middle blocker, Shrimpy... He's someone special, huh?" Kuroo grinned smugly while the rest of the Nekoma team gathered inside the hall.
Tanaka and Ennoshita stepped next to Daichi with one of their scariest expressions. Considering his usual calm face, a threat like this was triple as scary from Ennoshita.
"Yes he is, he is our middle blocker."
"So what?!"

"Relax~! We've got two of those, too," Kuroo grinned and nodded towards Kenma, who didn't show any emotion as usual, and towards Fukunaga, who observed the Karasuno club with strange fascination. Tsukishima immediately froze on his spot, golden eyes darting over to the supposedly special boys.
"More? Are you sure?"
"Of course Tsukki, I'm the captain after all."
"Don't call me Tsukki."
Hinata and Nishinoya bounced over to the two exposed mystical creatures and eyed them from head to toe.
"Really?!"
Kenma silently nodded, thin pupils fixating Hinata's bright eyes. Fukunaga remained motionless and continued to observe the team, he didn't quite have the trust Kenma placed into Hinata.

"Why are you even here?" Sugawara threw into the round and Kuroo's expression full of mischief switched into surprise.
"We agreed to have a match today. Did you forget us?!"
Daichi gasped and facepalmed with a deep groan.
"Right... I remember... Ugh, I knew I forgot something. But the new training we all have thanks to Hinata and Nishinoya really distracts."
Kuroo whistled quietly and eyed the exited libero from head to toe.
"Nishinoya too?! Wow."

Lev actually never looked as confused as now.
"What is going on?! I wanna know!!"
"Me too!!" Inuoka chirped while greeting Hinata and Shibayama, even if shy and hesitant, nodded hastily to join the common demands. Yaku kicked Lev with an impatient huff into the back of his knees.
"Stop being overly curious!!"
"Ow!! You don't have to chew on my ankles, Yaku-san!!"
Another kick and Lev laid on the ground, moaning about how unfair the world and especially Yaku was.
"Whaaat?! The first years don't know?!" Hinata exclaimed and Kuroo laughed.
"It's Puddin's decision if he tells anybody and the same with Fukunaga."
"Oh come on guys that's unfair! Tell us!"

Asahi who had kept quiet the entire time with a sharp gaze directed at Nekoma, suddenly stepped forward.
"...K-Kenma and Fukunaga aren't like Hinata and Nishinoya, right? I chatted with Iwaizumi about mystical beings... and they definitely don't have the same eyes our boys have."
"You chat with Iwaizumi?!" Kuroo spluttered and snickered right afterwards, "But you're right. I'm just not thrown off by that because I already guessed others of this kind exist. C'mon Puddin', how about you show yourself?"
Kenma looked up from his Nintendo and tilted his head, dyed blond hair falling into his face.
"If you stop calling me Pudding I will do that... Shouyou is one of us..."
These two bickered for a few minutes while the Nekoma first years stood gaping aside without any single clue about what was going on.

Finally, Kenma and Kuroo came to an agreement and the puddinghead fumbled with a tiny paper in his hand before he held it out towards Kuroo. Once it left his control, cat ears popped out of his head, whiskers became visible and a smooth cat tail slipped out at the back of his pants. While the Nekoma first years looked like fainting on the spot Hinata squealed and tacklehugged Kenma.
"Wow!! You are a real kitten!! Oh my god can I touch your ears?! You can touch my wings!!"
Hinata smashed his charm into Kageyama's face- "Hey dumbass!!"- and stretched out his gigantic wings, actually impressing Kenma as his pupils dilated slightly.
"Wow... you are a real crow... yes, be gentle..."

Hinata needed all his selfcontrol to stop bouncing as he petted Kenma, enjoying the little purrs which rumbled in his throat. Kenma's fur was horrible soft, black with brown little marks all over it, and during Hinata's touch his tail swayed calmly left and right.
Tsukishima pushed his glasses up with a tiny hum of appreciation. It was simply ironic Nekoma had nekos, however, he always had thought of Kozume Kenma as special.
"Can I ask a few questions later?" the blond voiced his presence again and while Kenma didn't seem to look forward to that at all, Kuroo nodded with a smirk.
"Best would be you ask me, Tsukki. I know everything that is to know about Puddin'."
Tsukishima glared at him and Yamaguchi giggled shyly. It was really cute to him how Tsukki would stop anyone who called him by this nickname, everyone but Tadashi himself.

Finally, Inuoka found his voice and started to pet Hinata's wings with an exited grin.
"No wonder you always jump like swoosh!! and spike like bam!!"
"Japanese, do you speak it?!" Tsukishima groaned and Sugawara stifled a giggle.
"How about we play now? Would be awesome when our teams play in their true forms!"
"Awesome idea, can't await to beat the kitty boys!!" Tanaka yelled and Yamamoto smirked back, "Try to Tanaka!!"

Lev sat up on the ground with shock and admiration in his eyes.
"How the fuck can you stay calm about literally two nekos and two boys with fucking wings?!"
"Shut up Lev and get going!!" Yaku scolded and within a second Lev was back on his feet with Shibayama trailing behind.
"Y-yes Yaku-san...!"

Author-chan found the nickname Kitty Boys™ so hilarious she took it from the user Florafaunaaa and changed city boys to kitty boys. Please applaud her, as Author-chan hasn't laughed so much since long.
