*Let's get this out of the way quick. I do not own the rights to any of the characters from this story. They are all from the managa/anime Haikyu written by Haruichi Furudate. I also do not own the cover artwork. If anyone does, please reach out so I can properly credit them.*
**Also this is a time skip, as well as a completely different plot from the manga. This is my own spin off of the story so none of what is happening is any spoilers, it is my original story and plot line.**
Hina Kageyama is the little sister of the famous volleyball player, Tobio Kageyama. She spent her high school years living in her brother's shadow of success, but it wasn't all bad. She made many friends and she was very proud of the man her brother had become. But when she entered college, she wanted all of that to change.

While on her first day, she was bulldozed by a guy named Bokuto which didn't lead her off to a great start. And later she was offered the position of manger by her brother, Tobio, and her friend Chizuya is elated to join the volleyball team as one. But Hina wasn't as thrilled as her good friend.
Could she join the team and still be a separate entity from her brother?
