Kageyama looked up into the sky, feeling free and happy. Here he was, on his way with Asahi to grab food and get together with the rest of the team.

Kageyama had almost everything he could have ever asked for. Friends, no, a family in his volleyball club, Karasuno counted once again to the best volleyball teams, they had crushed Shiratorizawa and he had formed a bond with so many new people-
Kageyama didn't feel lonely anymore. Misunderstood, like the selfabsorbed and selfcentered King he used to be. Perhaps, someday, he could make up with Kindaichi and Kunimi as well.
To show the world his new self, show his accomplishments and present them a smile-
"T-Tobio-kun stop with that expression...!" Asahi gasped next to him, horrified to the bone. Well, that about a smile; that was something he still needed to practice.

Kageyama Tobio had everything but Hinata Shouyou.

Yet.

Asahi's own luck in his relationship with Nishinoya gave him confidence and the belief in himself to catch up with Hinata and never let him out of his claws again. Could he help it? Kageyama was a crow, just like his other team mates.

"Yo Kageyama!" Tanaka greeted with a wide grin and waved at him, together with Nishinoya and the rest of the team. Daichi paused and narrowed his eyebrows.
"Where is Asahi? Didn't he want to come with you?"
"A-Asahi-kun?!"
Kageyama whirled around, no, Asahi was gone.
"What the fuck?! He was there a second ago!! I know it!" he cursed and Nishinoya immediately stood up from the bench he had made himself comfortable on.
"Let's go search for him. Who knows what trouble he found now again."
"Says you, Noya."
"That's actually a true concern, Asahi gets asked by a lot of people to join their gangs or some sort of that."
Suga snickered and decided to split up the team to search and call when they found him.

Kageyama slowly traced his steps back. Why did Asahi disappear? How did he disappear? He had been there a minute ago- or did Kageyama hallucinate? No, that was ridiculous.
"Asahi-kun!!" he yelled out but without receiving any answer. It wasn't long until he heard a scream splitting the air and immediately ran for it. Kageyama stumbled into a scene he didn't expect to see.

Iwaizumi had tall and broad Asahi pinned to a wall, Oikawa close by rooted on the ground with a look of utter shock on his face.
"TELL ME GODDAMMIT!!" Iwaizumi screamed and Asahi was shaking like a leaf.
"Iwaizumi-senpai?!" Kageyama exclaimed and ran to push the Seijoh ace off of Asahi but Oikawa caught his arm and pulled him back.
"D-don't. Stop Tobio-chan. Y-you... you shouldn't touch him."
Kageyama struggled in Oikawa's grip and even kicked him, but froze as he caught a glympse of his face. A blue eye, bloody nose and a bloody lip.
Iwaizumi was on a rampage.

"I-I have n-no idea what you mean!" Karasuno's ace croaked in a highpitched voice and Iwaizumi slammed him once more against the wall behind him, earning a muffled pained squeak.
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT BULLSHIT!! Who are they?! WHO THE FUCK ARE THEY?! WINGED CHILDREN, NEKOS, INUS!! I KNOW YOU FUCKING MET THEM!! AND I KNOW ONE OF YOUR FUCKING TEAM IS A WINGED CHILD!!"
Asahi was close to passing out, frozen in every part of his body, unable to progress what was happening.
"Winged... children...?" Oikawa slowly repeated, clueless, concerned and frightened. Kageyama couldn't move either, as much as he wanted to, but Oikawa had a merciless grip on him. What his brain fought to understand: Was Oikawa protecting him from getting messed up by Iwaizumi? Or was Oikawa protecting Iwaizumi from the King's wrath?

"...I-I... I-Iwai... I-Iwaizumi... san..."
Kageyama grew horrified and wide eyes, same with Asahi. Four pairs of eyes darted over to the orange haired middle blocker of Karasuno.
"H-Hinata... H-Hinata RUN!!" Asahi yelled and Iwaizumi's eyes shot wide open in realization.
"O-of course!! Bwahahaha!! That I didn't get to this conclusion myself!!!" he snorted coldly; Hinata turned to flee but within a second Iwaizumi had him captured on the ground, sitting on his butt.

Asahi and Kageyama lost it. They grabbed Iwaizumi from both sides and struggled to get him off of their precious sunshine, but all they managed to do is ripping off his jacket. What they saw was terrifying, well, terrifying for Oikawa. In front of their eyes Iwaizumi changed.
His teeth grew into fangs.
His ears grew longer and longer until they stood high in the air, fur covering them.
A long tail became visible.
His eyes turned wild and beasty.
Iwaizumi didn't bother to stop and soon enough, after searching through the pockets of the flailing Hinata below him, he found a charm and ripped it to pieces with a triumphant cry. Kageyama trembled in adrenaline.
"HANDS OFF MY BOYFRIEND!!" he screamed and struggled to push Iwaizumi off, but the wing spiker was having none of it.

As soon as the gigantic wings of Hinata became visible, flapping helplessly and flailing around just as much as Hinata himself, Oikawa couldn't take it anymore.
That was too much for him.
"FINALLY I CAUGHT ONE!!" Iwaizumi laughed maniacally but much to everyone's surprise, he wrapped his arms around Hinata and a few tears escaped his eyes as he nuzzled into his nape. Hinata was so scared he looked like both vomiting and on the verge to pass out, well, Oikawa had at least done the latter before him.

Kageyama stared at the scene, unable to move or speak. Asahi on the other hand, slowly settled down.
"...I-inu. I-Iwaizumi is a-an inu," he whispered and slumped down against the wall, exhausted and beaten. God this was too much for everyone.
"H-Hinata... H-Hinata relax, h-he isn't gonna hurt y-you," he mumbled, eyes not leaving the broad half dog. Which breed was he? By the looks of it, a rottweiler.
"H-how can you just let him?! He fucking attacked you!! And Oikawa-san! And Hinata!!" Kageyama spat, finally regaining his voice.

Asahi dismissed it with a tired smile and watched the pair of special races.
"...r-remember h-how Aone a-asked us about a-any else inus...?" he murmured out of Iwaizumi's reach. Kageyama narrowed his eyebrows but nodded.
"...A-aone still has his mother... his pack. But Iwaizumi... Iwaizumi..."
Kageyama realized what Asahi hinted at and his angry expression fell like a curtain, replaced by pity.
"...Iwaizumi-senpai... has no one... no pack..." Tobio finished for him.

Iwaizumi always was alone.
