Lexi’s eyes flicked with blue flames as she continued to speak “Well? What is your judgement now, Sawai of Eiga High? Am I still someone who shouldn’t meddle or are you going to listen to my advice now? Don’t underestimate me” she shouted.

Eiga High POV

The members of Eiga High could not believe what they just saw. The supposed manager of Tottori Hakurou won a bout against Sawai Raion.

When Lexi went back to her team after declaring to not be underestimated, that’s when Sawai stood up and went to his team. 

Whistle ~~~ “She’s good and a total hot chick too. Say Daniel, how come you never spoke about her before or get her to join Eiga? Then I could have asked her out” Hyoudou asked with a smirk on his face.

Daniel looked over at Lexi and saw Tennoji place a hand on her cheek and she was blushing. “Nah. I knew she moved to Japan, but I think Hakurou was the best place for her. How are doing Leon?” he asks as he turns to Sawai. “How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that? Anyway, does she participate in any sports? That palm strike was strong and she had the strength and speed to throw me like that. I find it hard to believe that she is that good just from doing a few mock bouts”, Sawai asked rubbing his cheek.

“Oh did I forget to mention” Daniel expressed “Lexi plays rugby, so she tackles the big guys all day and is currently one of the best players in the world. She recently lead her team to victory at the world championship”.

As Daniel finished explaining with a smile of a proud brother, the reactions from the other members varied. Sawari was annoyed because he went into the bout thinking that Lexi didn’t know anything, Yomoda had a smirk on his face, Hyoudou’s eyes lit up ‘man I wish she came to Eiga. I could of made her my woman then’ he thought and Kariya looked over at Lexi with admiration, ‘There isn’t that much difference in our height yet she didn’t hesitate for one second to spar with someone of Sawai-san’s size. It seems I still have a lot to learn’, he realised.  

No one’s POV

After the big revelation and the return of Lexi from freshening up, training continued well into the early evening before it was called to a conclusion.

“Thank you for all your hard work” the coach said, “You’ve all worked hard today and the training, I believe, will benefit everyone”. All the members bowed, “Thank you for your hard work”.

Coach then turned to Lexi. “Lexi-chan, can you show Eiga High out?”

“Of course coach”. 

Lexi’s POV

As soon as the Eiga members had collected their stuff, it was time to see them off. I was walking alongside Daniel laughing about old times along with Hyoudou who was trying to flirt, but I didn’t really take any notice.

When we reached the bus, I turned to Daniel and gave him a hug. “I’ll see you later at the National tournament Daniel”, I said in English. Daniel hugged me back, “Yeah. I’ll see you then”. Daniel pulls away and smirks at me, “He’s a good match for you”.
I looked him and tilted my head to side confused “Who?” I asked. “Don’t play coy Lexi. I saw Tennoji-san place his hand on your cheek and the blush that spread across your face” he smiles.

Said blush started to reappear on my face. Why did he say that? “But do tell Tennoji-san that if he upsets you, he will have to deal with your big brother here” pointing to himself. I started pushing Daniel towards the bus “Just go already” I said. He gave me one final smile and entered the bus.

Sawai was the last one to get on. He stood in front of me and bowed, “I’m sorry about my behaviour earlier. It was wrong to judge you like that”.

I looked at Sawai and sighed.
Damn it, I picked up coach’s habit. “Sawai-san. Stand up” He straighten up and looked at me. I then promptly flicked him in the forehead hard “Ouch” he exclaims holding his forehead. I smiled and said “Just don’t make the same mistake in the future otherwise it will bite you on the arse”. He gave me a small smile before entering the bus. I waved to the guys as the bus left the Hakurou grounds. 

Until next time Eiga High, when we meet at the National Championships.
