Y/N POV
"Yay! I'm finally 3 now! " I said excitedly

"Mama mama mama! " I said

"Hm? What do you need honey? " She asked

"Mama you said when I turned 3 I could finally learn volleyball! " I said

"Oh that's right! " She said

She then pulled out her phone.

"Which training course do you want to go to? "She asked

" I don't know? The best one I guess? I wanna be the best! " I said

"Sure honey. Do your brothers want to join you? " She asked

They shook their head

She then proceeded to call the training course and sign me up

"Y/N it's going to be Monday to Saturday from 3p.m. to 7p.m. you okay with that? " She asked

I nodded

"When do you want to start Y/N?" She asked

"Today! " I answered

"Alright honey. I'll bring you to the training course after 3 hours okay? " She said

"Okay mama! " I answered

~At 3 p.m. at the training course~

I was dropped off at a huge gymnasium and my mum went to work. I heard the squeaking of shoes and the ball when it hit the ground. It was like BAM and I was startled.

I opened the gymnasium door and saw everyone looking at me.

"You must be Y/N San! " A man said

I nodded

"Everyone gather up I want you guys to meet someone! " He said

"This is Hanaki Y/N! She's only 3 years old and 4 years younger than all of you. I expect you to respect her okay? " He said

"Yes coach! " They all said in unison

"Alright Y/N the first lesson we are going to learn is receiving " He said

"First you put your arms straight together and connect your two thumbs. Then you bend your knees slightly and when the ball hits your arms you straighten your arms a bit. Don't be afraid of the ball. " He said

"Alright I'll toss a ball to you" He said then he tossed the ball at me.

I did exactly what he told me to do and received it but it went out.

"Y/N you are great but if you want to receive better you should do this" He then corrects my position and he tossed to me

This time I managed to receive it beautifully

We spent the rest of the hours practicing on how to receive and taking a few small breaks in between. I became better and better at receiving.

"That's great Y/N! This is your first day and you're already getting the hang of receiving" He said

"Well be continuing our lesson on receiving tomorrow and I'll teach you a few more receiving techniques. Remember to go home and practice" He said

I nodded my head and continued practicing receiving. Then my mum came to fetch me home. I went home and continued practicing again. I thought volleyball was really fun and wanted to excel in it.

Day by day my receiving got better and better. Sooner or later he didn't just toss to me he spikes it. As each day went by his spiked became harder and harder but I still managed to receive a lot of them. The other students in the gymnasium also spiked at me and I received them with ease. I made the coach proud.

After about a year of volleyball practice I already excelled in all the positions. The coach was shocked by my performance..

"Hey Y/N come over here for a second" he said

"Hmm what do you need coach? " I asked

He looked at my 4 year old self.

"Y/N I think you've got a lot of potential and I don't want to waste it by holding you back when you are already great at all the positions. In short, I want you to get better so I want you to train with my friend, his name is Ukai Ikkei. He's a volleyball coach in a powerhouse. His training is very intense. So are you up for it? " He asked

I nodded my head

He brought me to Coach Ukais home

"Hey Ikkei!I brought the kid" He said

"Alright come in" Coach Ukai said

We went into his house.

"So your the one he's been telling me about. What's your name kid?" He asked

"Hanaki Y/N! Nice to meet you sir! Please coach me! " I said

"Are you up for the challenge though? My training is way more intense than his. Are you sure you can take it? " He asked

I nodded my head vigorously

"Alright then I'll take you under my Wing" He said

From that day onwards practice became hell for me. It was both mentally and physically draining. I had to admit at first I thought of quiting. But my heart just wouldn't let me. So I stayed. And slowly but surely I improved a lot. My spikes were getting more powerful and I even learnt how to use my non dominant hand. My tosses were getting more and more accurate. My blocks were getting harder to pass through. My receives were the best though. Spikes seldom touched the floor when I was receiving. My strength, stamina and jump power all increased. By the age of 5 I was already jumping at 268 cm. As time progressed I would only get better and better. Sometimes coach would even bring me to she school he was coaching and let me play with them. They were all surprised at how a 5 year old girl was able to do all that.

But I didn't forget to have fun too. At kindergarden I made a lot of friends. I hung out with Tooru and Hajime on the weekends and often slept over with them. Our bond grew stronger over time. By the time I was 6 I was already jumping at 289cm. Everyone was shocked. Sometimes coach Ukai even brings me to practice matches to show me off. I sometimes would join the practice matches. And I knew a handful of the coaches. There were 2 that were very close to Coach Ukai one was Coach Nekomata he was the coach of Nekoma High. The other was Coach Washijo the coach of Shiratorizawa. They both always gave me tips here and there. I appreciated their help very much. I was very close to the 3 coaches almost like their granddaughter.

After two years of training, my serves became shockingly powerful. When I received no ball would ever go down on our side of the court. When I blocked it was stone solid no normal player could break pass them. When I set it was with extreme precision and I could manipulate the ball anyway I wanted to. And when I spiked it would actually dent the floor. Needless to say I was amazing( Y/N is not narcissistic btw).

When I was 5 my mom let me model for her company. And I was their spokesperson.

But when I became 8 everything started to change...
