"Good job Jon... what you did over there was a real feigning! You can proceed with the other tactics as well...Suho,you need to adjust your speed in respect to your team mates when they get the ball"
"Got it coach!"
"Yes sir!"
The coach stroked his mustache observing them as they ran back to train. He was really proud of the students, especially their captain.
They were the seniors of Moonstone highschool and had participated in various outside basketball games climbing up to the fifth season.
This year he had managed to get talented students to nurture them. However,it was up to them to give in their best.
By next year,they will graduate to the final classes and they will have to put a hold to their games in order to write their National examinations.
As for now...
He hoped that they will stay focused on winning the games that's coming up by the end of this month.
Somebody suddenly appeared in front of the coach.
" Coach... I'm sorry I'm late " the boy apologized.
"You dumb kid! how many times have I told you to stop coming here late?!... join your teammates and replace Burn!" The coach yelled. Not to far away,the boy called Burn was already showing posts signs of fatigue and occasionally,he would bend over to catch his breath.
The boys in the black team sniggered. But their captain's face was grim. He suddenly turned to them." What ever you do,make sure that tall boy with black hair doesn't get the ball"
The other seniors nodded, but the five juniors in the black team were slightly confused. The studied the tall black haired boy as he walked with his head lowered. He looked rather tired as though a mere wind could knock him down. There was nothing special about him other than his hight.
But as he lifted his head,the juniors that recently joined the team took the whole day to react. He was just too... Ah!!!
A tall blonde haired boy suddenly passed the ball to his partner by the side and he shot the ball. Just as the ball flew to his opponent's hoop with a sudden swish, and a white blurry figure had pass.
"What the...!" the boy ,Cheong Hun looked bewildered at the sudden appearance of the other team's player. The other older seniors in the black team, faces changed.
" Noooo!!...get that ball away from him!!"
" We're doomed!"
" I concede to defeat"
Cheung Hun had no time to react when the tall black haired boy swiftly ran off,as fast as a cheetah.
Their leader had specifically told them no matter what,they must not let that boy have the ball. Now he knew why...
The black haired boy quickly ran towards the basket hoop and in an instant,he was blocked again by four black team players. He ran to the left side and was blocked by the two players,so he moved back to the middle of the court. With the ball bouncing from his hands,he suddenly sighed and lowered his head.
But as he sighed... the seniors on the black team paled.
The boy lifted his two hands and tossed the ball from across the middle of the court with his back straight.
* Chack!
He scored a three point! All the way from the middle of this huge basketball court!!
After half time, the white team's score suddenly shot up to 28 points.
The coach blew the whistle signalling end of the games. He was acting as their referee. Everyone stopped playing and left the court to get some rest.
Cheung Hun sat down on the bench to drink water,his mind far away. He recently joined the team because he was good at defense due to his strength and height. Never in his wild dreams that this lazy boy from the white team would be so good at offence and three point shoots- who knows...he may be even good at defense.
Their captain on his side had told him previously that no matter what, they should never allow that boy to get the ball. Now he understood why...
The boy was simply unbeatable and good at basketball. Luckily they are all teammates participating in training or else...
Upon his arrival, that boy had managed to turn the tables of the other opponents to their advantage in just a short span of time.
The other newbies sat down with Cheung Hun and asked their captain of the whole team." Say captain... who's that guy that suddenly showed up from nowhere?!"
" He's unbeatable and swift"
" Yeah!"
" How come I've never seen him during training before?"
"He's such a skilled newbie"
The captain,Gu Hao sighed and looked at them with pity." That boy didn't even use half of his 0.01% of his whole 100% skills to defeat us..."
Everyone: "?" What....?
Seeing the confused looks of the newbies face,the captain sighed again and laughed." That same boy... that you think is a new dark horse... is Ru Yehan."
