Hamasaki Sayuri; the only person courageous enough to challenge Akashi Seijuro to a Shogi game, the only person unfazed by his menacing presence, and the only girl capable of making the cold-hearted emperor smile. -- "Seijuro, what's happening..." she sobbed, her tears uncontrollably spilling out from her pained orbs. He looked down at the clueless girl and swore he felt his heart shatter to pieces at the sight. "Shhh, it's okay Princess. I got you," he assured, still caressing her hair lovingly. It was at that moment that he felt an overwhelming feeling consume him. He looked down at the girl and placed a gentle hand on her right cheek. "Sayuri," He had to tell her now, or else he'd regret it for the rest of his life. "I love you."

Si Kaede Rukawa isang first year sa Shohoku High School. Sya ay tahimik, suplado, makasarili at may pagka aroganteng tao. Sakabila ng hindi magandang ugali nito popolar sya sa mga babae sa school nila dahil sa kanyang aking kagwapuhan, matangkad sya, fair skin, black hair at blue eyes. Dalawa lang ang gusto nyang gawin ang magbasketball at matulog. Pag nasa loob sya ng court walang makakapigil sa kanya, napakahusay na basketball player kahit first year palang. Pagwala naman sa loob ng court makikita syang natutulog sa classroom or sa rooftop ng school. "Walang sinoman ang maaaring sumira ng tulog ko," yan si Kaede Rukawa. What will happen if he meet a girl same with his attitude and fall inlove with her. Will he win her heart or will he end up to a broken heart?

I'll always be his supporter, no matter what happens. UNDER REVISION Ryota Miyagi | Hisashi Mitsui | Akira Sendoh | Kaede Rukawa | Hanamichi Sakuragi

The price of a moment, the significance of memories, the roads we tread on under the sole azure sky, and the value of life itself. These mere things, once we do something to it-- will subject us to change, to meet a beautiful soul, and to love, until that emotion consumes us.

I do not own Slam Dunk. All characters except Yui are owned by Takehiko Inoue as well as some scenes from anime. I decided to create this story specifically for Rukawa (I am an avid fan of him. I really like him despite of his dark personality). Curious about Yui? She is Rukawa's childhood friend in this story.
