Hinata was back at the gym. Takeda smiled and looked at Suga. Suga walked to him confused and Takeda told him what happened. He was so shocked, that he looked at Hinata who was running to Ukai. He hugged the man's leg and smiled swinging around his body.

Ukai picked him up and sat him on the bench. Hinata giggled then looked confused. Hinata raised an eyebrow and noticed something. He frowned and looked at the court. Closely he turned his head and saw an orange-haired boy run then jumped to spike the ball. His eyes widen as he noticed it.

"Hinata! Great job!"Suga said smiling giving him some compliments as he chuckled.

"I went WAAH, FOOM! That was awesome, Kageyama! Let's do it again!"He said excitedly and Kageyama glared at him for his energy.

Hinata laughed and smiled, but inside he could feel pain. He felt himself losing, drowning in fear. Even if he thought he could get up after falling so many times, he doesn't know if he will ever break down. He knows someday he will.

He felt himself burn in flames. He moved as he continued to practice, it was the only thing that helped him cope. Sometimes it didn't help, it always depended on how much he held onto. Even if he plays, sometimes he forgets he's playing and focused on his memories.

"Wah! Hinata, if you continue to jump like that. You might jump over the net."Nishinoya said and Hinata kept his smile.

Hinata frowned and saw someone there. It was a version of himself, running and spiking the ball, blocking the ball and receiving. He clenched his fist seeing himself jump so high he's never seen before.

Who was that and why did it look like him? Or at least the older version? He thought all this happening, maybe something was wrong with him.

He went down and turned to Ukai. "I want to play."

"You can't play, you'll get hurt Shouyou."He pouted and huffed then ran to Kageyama.

"Can I play?"He asked and Kageyama looked at Daichi who sighed.

He turned to Fukurodani team and sighed. He noticed they were hesitant like them. Hinata gave them puppy eyes to which Tanaka cooed the boy while the others started to agree. Daichi was last but looked a little concerned.

Nekoma watched and Kuroo smirked. Kenma frowned and the others gulped. Yaku and some worry he could get hurt. Kuroo was just amused and wondered what was going to happen even though he was a little worried.

"Be careful,"Akaashi said and they all nodded then decided to play slowly as he was on top of Asahi shoulders for safety.

He smiled they played really slow and easy. Kageyama eventually set after a pass from Nishinoya. Asahi went by one step closer and Hinata spiked the ball making it pass through Bokuto's right eyes.

He flinched and it hit the floor as their foot screeched. It was fast, too fast. Lev sighed and scratched his leg remembering the hit he got last time. He knew Hinata could hit hard but not that fast. Even for a child.

"Did...DAMN SHOUYOU!"Bokuto yelled happily and Hinata giggled while Asahi just blinked with wide eyes.

He did that right? He just spiked the ball better than he did before, right? They weren't just seeing things. Kageyama looked at Hinata as the boy took off the bun out of Asahi hair and played with it.

Daichi looked at Suga who was surprised but wasn't that shocked. Suga turned to Takeda and nodded. Suga went to go by Asahi and Hinata then looked up at the child.

"Come on, don't you want to cook?"He asked Hinata who turned his head and nodded.

"Asahi uncle, can you put me down?"He asked and the male nodded helping him off his shoulder and down to his feet.

Suga picked him up and walked away smiling. Takeda followed behind him without anyone noticing. They were too busy and were shocked. Kenma was surprised as well, it was a good thing he recorded that too.

The boy records everything and anything he sees of course. Even if he's supposed to practice, he's busy on his phone or games. Well if Hinata isn't around.

Ukai made them continue to play and sighed. "Takeda do you-."

He frowned and looked to see that man missing. He raised an eyebrow and just continued to watch the game. He was going to talk to the man later for sure. Everyone is still surprised how Hinata still could hit the ball even for how small he is.

Hinata was smiling and looking at his car. Suga sat him down and pom-pom came running. Hinata walked for pom-pom to get on and he started to drive.

"Do you think his father will be found?"He asked Takeda and he sighed.

Takeda blinked remembering what has happened this morning for a moment. "Maybe, one of Hinata's friend's mother took a picture of him and sent it to the police to look for him. One of the mothers even punched his face, it was surprising."

"He even cursed too and I don't think it was him at all. It was as if someone was telling him something and he was following it."He continued.

"I've been meaning to ask, is something wrong with him? He even said last time, that someone said not to tell anyone else. What does he mean by that?"He asked and Suga smiled at Hinata who was staring at him.

"Shouyou says that because the older him inside says so. Whatever the male says, he listens and follows. Like how he found pom-pom, how he told him about his father, and pretty much the way he saves himself. That's all his older self trying to protect his younger self. I have noticed that after a while after that random guy attack that happened."He said and Takeda's eyes widen.

"Mama I like volleyball too,"Hinata said and Suga turned then smiled.

"That's great."

"Maybe we should teach him more and stay by his side to learn more. I felt as if he has more troubles than just what we think."Takeda said and he nods smiling.

"When I do see that man. I'll punch and kill him for sure."Suga said in an angry tone which Takeda nodded.
