4: Just Passing By
Yukiko Tsukishiro
"Ah~ All in a day's hard work!" was all the black and blue haired girl said as she dusted her hands which were glowing red from the fight she was dragged into.
"Miss? Are you alright now?" She offered a hand to the pink haired girl that was quiet while she fought the perverted men who tried to molest her. "Y-Yes, I'm fine.. Thank you so much." The girl replied as she dusted her skirt. "Well, It's awfully late too.. What were you doing?" Yukiko could not help but be curious, why would a normal high school girl be out this late? especially her uniform's not from Seirin which was a nearby school. "O-Oh.. I was here to collect data for the basketball team" she replied shyly, fringes covering her face.
'Wait.. Data.. Pink haired.. Basketball team.. Manager-- WAAAH!!'
"Wait- Satsuki..?! Satsuki Momoi?" Tsukishiro's dark orbs widened as she rubbed her eyes. "W-Wait, were you my classmate at Teiko..?" she squinted her eyes, the girl in front of her is really familiar. Though Momoi could not put a finger to who is the girl in front of her-
"Tsukishiro Yukiko."

Momoi and Yukiko sat down at a nearby bench, sipping drinks from a nearby vending machine while catching up with each other. "Ah~! I can't believe you now Yu-chan! When we were at middle school your hair's still purely black and you don't have any piercings!" Momoi gushed at the black and blue girl's change, "Ah.. Ehehe~ You know, people need to change sometimes for the better" The latter trailed off and scratched her nape in embarrassment. "Besides I turned more badass now right?" Yukiko continued with a wink. Into which the two girls laughed.
"Yu-chan.. Did you specifically changed because of basketball..?" And with that question, all humor disappeared like a soap bubble. "...I'll be honest.. I want to smash their faces.. They were still in middle school and their egos are the size of godzilla" Yukiko sighed and leaned on the backrest of the bench.
Momoi's eyes softened, as if remembering what happened in the past. "Though, nobody can blame them. Nobody's strong enough." Yukiko's black and blue hair swayed in the wind as her words echo in Momoi's ears.
"That's.. true.. but.." Momoi trailed off. "That Aomitoast better be treating you well. Can't have our best manager treated like dirt right?" Yukiko patted Momoi's back in an attempt to comfort her. "You said they want to have a worthy opponent?" Yukiko's heartwarming smile turned into a smirk.
"Tell that burnt toast of a childhood friend of yours that we'll pummel his ass and smash his face." The black and blue haired girl looked at Momoi with a poker face that matched a certain blue haired phantom's normal face into which Momoi laughed. "We'll be waiting, Yu-chan. I trust you." The pink haired girl nodded as she stood up with Yukiko
"I'll walk you home. Those perverts might be lingering here again, Did that Toasted bread leave you alone again?" Yukiko's insult for Aomine made the girl beside her laugh. "No of course not! I told you I was gathering data!"
"Good. If he did, I'll deliver the punches those perverts gave me to him yeah?"

The fun never stops for Yukiko, it's 7:30 pm and she's still not home yet, her parents might ground her for this. "Oh well, I'll just tell them I walked Satsuki home, no big deal.." She mumbled as she passed by the street court that is currently inhabited by two people playing, 'If Kuroko was here I would have shown him that guy.. Little guy got blocked by tall red haired gu- Wait. TETSUYA?!' her eyes doubled in size as she saw how they played.
"The fun never stops for me.." She sighed as she walked towards the court, the wind adding to her dramatic entrance as both players looked at the girl.
"The hell?!"
"Tsukishiro-san."
"How lovely of the two of you to acknowledge me" Yukiko's eyes were deadpanned, devoid of any emotion as she watched the bouncing orange ball make its way into her hands.
"Tsukishiro-san what are you doing here?"
"Tetsuya. What are you doing here?" Tsukishiro shot back. "Playing basketball with Kagami-kun" he answered nonchalantly.
"You know her?" Kagami's eyes narrowed at their informal ways of greeting each other. "Yes. Tsukishiro-san and I went to the same middle school."
"Yeah. My name is Tsukishiro Yukiko. Don't worry about me. I'm just passing by."
