As Akashi was keeping to himself and he clearly didn't want to be disturbed, Momoi nudged Aomine then. "Will Midorin go easy on Miko-chan?" She asked in a whisper, glancing at the tanned male, who was standing casually beside her then back at the court, where the teams are. 

"I doubt it," Aomine scoffed as his attention was on the court, his navy blue eyes solely on the mentioned sky-bluenette

"I doubt it," Aomine scoffed as his attention was on the court, his navy blue eyes solely on the mentioned sky-bluenette. "They might be friends out of court, but in court, they are basketball players. I don't think Miko wouldn't want him to do that as well."

The game started off as Seirin had the ball, only to have every Seirin player guarded by a Shutoku player, even Kamiko. It wasn't long until Izuki immediately passed the ball towards the sky-bluenette, who easily managed to slip past the Shutoku player, who was currently guarding her, much to the latter's shock. 

Kamiko quickly made a shot towards the basket, with Kagami leaping towards it, ready for an alley-oop, but giving moments before the redhead could dunk the ball in, Midorima appeared from out of nowhere and smacked it out of Kagami's hands, much to the shock of the Seirin team but Kamiko.

' It was worth a try,' Kamiko thought as she glanced at her former rookie with the ball currently in Takao's possession. 'But it's going to be tough dealing with Shintaro.'

"How disappointing. You think you can beat us with that?" He sneered at Kagami.

Hyuuga ran to block Takao, who currently had possession of the ball, but the Shutoku player was quick to pass the ball to a nearby teammate who was standing at the half-court line who turned out to be Midorima, and Hyuuga's eyes widened in shock.

Everyone on Seirin knew that allowing Midorima to get the ball was considered suicidal, especially after what they'd seen him do after Seirin's match with Shinkyo. 

Kamiko did mention that Midorima is the Shooting Guard of the Generation of Miracles and a shooting specialist, but apart from that, the girl said nothing more about his abilities. 

As the ball made a high arc in the air, heading its merry way toward the basket, Kamiko inwardly frowned before turning and making her way toward the direction of the basket where the ball was headed towards.

"Let's go, Kagami-kun," she called for the still-gobsmacked Kagami, who shook his head violently before following after her.

The ball went neatly into the basket, thus earning the first point of the entire game.

"It's a three-pointer!"

.XxX.

"Midorin is playing well today," Momoi commented.
