(Lunch) Taki waited at the school gate for his sister who'd volunteered to run home during lunch to return with their gear. He'd have gone home himself but he'd needed to do some classwork helping clean up after lunch. Izumi appeared just as the first bell rang and threw the equipment bag over the gate then grabbing the top leapt over herself. [B]"Got it all"[/B] she says as she lands The two then run back inside the school and their next class ______________________ (It Begins) When the final Bell of the day rang the people in their class that wanted to chat to the twins were surprised by their rushed exit. They were soon at the gym an Taki rushed into the locker room and changed into his basket gear. Under his shorts he put on a pair of Nike Pro compression basketball shorts that are designed to take the pounding of intense practices and games. His sister had bought them for him on his birthday that year and it had looked as if he never would get a chance to wear them till today over the shorts he slid his Nambu Tiger shorts which he'd worn at last years finals, he didn't put on his matching tank but his favorite yellow practice tank. He grinned as he read the Nike motto that his old coach had drilled into them "Second Place Is The First Loser". He grinned as he then slid on his indoor court shoes a pair of Nike LeBron Xs that his dad had let him buy that summer for passing his English classes and keeping a high gpa. Now outfitted he retrieved his favorite Indoor ball from the bag. It was a Molten GL-7 top-of-the line competition quality ball which he only used on regulation courts but today was a special day and like the Samurai of old he wanted to present his best. He headed out the door to be met by Izumi coming out of the girls locker room dressed out for practice. She smiled as he looked at her an said [B] "I thought you'd need someone to spar with so I got ready[/B] She took off running and it was when he heard her dribbling her realized that she'd stolen the ball. The two of them bolted into the gym Izumi giggling and Taki in hot pursuit.
