Some say laughter is the cure for everything, but they obviously never heard Miyuki laugh...

"I want to form a battery with you again, in the future and challenge everyone. I'll be the best pitcher in Japan and it's only reasonable for me to have the best catching for me." Chris bit the inside of his cheek, holding back a smile; it was a losing battle, he could feel the tips of his mouth curl up. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pairing: Takigawa Chris Yuu x Sawamura Eijun

Samantha Egen was not on a baseball team, she did however have a cousin who did and watched his games regularly. Learning the rules of baseball and even went as far as to read dozens of books about baseball. It was late at night and Samantha was surfing the web in search of a new baseball book. She happened to stumble upon a baseball manga series called Ace of the Diamond. This is where our story begins.

What if after the last game of Akagi Junior High, Eijun threw himself into learning more about baseball. What if he acknowledges that he isn't that smart, and knows that his only chance is to be recruited for a big baseball high school? would he show up to Seidou differently than in cannon? How would people react? Disclaimer: This is a Ace of Diamond fanfiction :) Also, I included any links to written sources at the end of each chapter... the cover art isn't mine. I will let y'all know if any of the art is mine :p *Now cross posted on AO3 under my alt pseudonym Maeribella_Haber
