~Y/N POV~

"Yachi..." I trailed off, watching as Miya Atsumu approached the service line.

"Yes?" she asked hesitantly as I started snickering at my own thoughts.

We were half way through the second set, and down 7 points. However, that was the least of my concerns at the moment.

"Does he remind you of Barry the bee?" I asked seriously, narrowing my eyes at the boy.

"W-what?" she asked, dumbfounded as I pulled out my phone too search it up.

"See, he looks like Barry B Benson!" I exclaimed, holding my phone up for her to see.

"U-uhm I suppose so," she stammered, clearly not able to wrap her mind around my scientific discovery.

"That's what I thought," I sighed, nodding my head as the whistle blew.

Of course, Barry- I mean Miya Atsumu did a jump float serve, sending the ball straight towards Nishi. Unfortunately, the ball broke right through his grasp, tumbling away as he glared it down.

"A-again?" Yachi stammered as I once again froze from shock.

"H-he's targeting him! That's the only explanation!" I wailed, leaning on Yachi's shoulder for support as Ukai called a timeout.

"I think this is the first time I've seen anyone target Nishinoya. Usually, servers try too avoid him," Yachi sighed, watching as Noya dug through his bag.

"Agh, and it looks like he hurt his fingers," I pouted, watching as he carried a small roll of tape over to Ennoshita who helped him bandage a few of them.

"You've got this, Nishinoya," Yachi prayed, bringing her arms up and clinging too the collar of her jacket.

"C'mon Nishi," I mumbled under my breath as the players returned too the court, and Atsumu once again hit a float serve at Nishi.

Too my dismay, the ball contacted his arms before falling too the floor as if it had simply been placed there. It just stopped.

"AGAIN?" Yachi and I gasped in unison as Nishi's arms fell, and I grew extremely worried.

Of course Nishi's messed up on receives and passes before, but two in a row? And especially after all that work he did with Kinoshita?

"Oh- oh my-" I snickered as he suddenly dove onto the floor, busting out about ten of the penalty finger push ups he did in practice. "Nishi you bad ass!"

He leapt up and readied himself the moment he was done, eagerly staring down Atsumu.

"C'mon, c'mon, c'mo- YES!" I cheered as he managed too get the ball up with a regular receive. (bless the lord and heaven above, thank you Asah- Jesus😗)

Speaking of lord Asahi, he was the one who hit the ball back over, forcing Atsumu too get the first touch.

However, just as Ukai had warned us the night before, Osamu was able too cleanly cover for his twin, setting up their number 10 who got a clean kill.

"Agh, dang it," I whined, dragging my hand down my face.

Although, Miya Atsumu did miss his next serve which was a huge weight to be lifted off the teams shoulders.

"Haha, take that bumble bee. That's what you get for not having any lungs," I snickered to myself, earning a concerned look from Yachi.

"W-what was that? The last part?" she asked as my eyes lit up and I swung my arm around her small shoulders.

"Yachi...Yachi...I'm honoured to be the one to tell you this. Bumble bee's don't have lungs," I cooed, waving my arm in the air as if I was painting.

"T-they don't?" she questioned as the game continued behind us.

"No. They're lungless," I nodded happily, giving her a cheesy grin.

"I'm probably going to regret asking this but...why do you know that?" she asked hesitantly.

"Oh, you remember the guy from Seijoh? The one with the bumble bee hair?" I asked as she thought for a minute, nodding once she knew who I was talking about.

"Well, he inspired me too study bumble bees. So naturally I stayed up making a power point about them, and I learned that during my studies!"

"Well, at least you studied something," she giggled as I nodded happily, returning my attention to the court.

I looked up too see Sugamama subbing in for Tsukki, and Hinata eagerly bounding into the front line.

He really does look like a human tangerine, I mean, he blends in with the orange court! Camouflage at its finest.

Moving on from the tangerine, Suga used his motherly instincts too inspire the team a little bit while also receiving many death glares from Inarizaki.

"YEAAAA SUGAMAMA! LETS GO!" I cheered, jumping up and down as he gave me a sheepish smile.

He then calmly hit the ball over the net, watching as it was set up by mister Benson. The twin that doesn't resemble a 2D bee then ran up, ricocheting the ball off of Hinata and Tanaka's block and sending it flying to the back of the court.

However, Suga wasn't about to let his children go down like that and absolutely YEETED himself across the court to play the ball.

The play was finished by Kags forcing Inarizakis ace to get the first touch, and Atsumu still setting him anyways.

This clearly proved to be a mistake, as Kags and baldy completely shut him out. (kind of how I shut out my feelings for people🥰)

"YEAAAA- Oh wait, no. It was out," I sighed, dropping my shoulders as the lines person raised their flag to signal that the ball landed out of bounds.

"Aw, poor Suga," Yachi pouted as a substitution was made on both sides of the court.

Suga switching with Tsukkishima again, and Inarizaki taking out the smoker dude and playing a pinched server.

"He reminds me of onion head," I nodded, narrowing my eyes at the boy who appeared similar too Kindaichi but...slightly different.

"I GOT IT! He's a pomegranate!"

spot the difference🥰

"A...pomegranate?" Yachi asked as the boy in question served, easily having the ball received by Asahi.

"A pomegranate," I sighed happily as Hinata pulled off his signature quick, getting us a point back.

"Are you going too asign every member of Inarizaki a look alike?" Yachi asked skeptically as my face lit up and I immediately pulled out my phone.

"Yachi you little GENI-

"BOO!"

"What was that serve?"

"At least make it a good one!"

That's right folks, not only do the Inarizaki fans boo the opponent, but they also boo their own PLAYERS!

Spread the love I guess idk¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Talk about a tough crowd," I cringed, opening my my notes app and typing all of the players number from Inarizaki.

Of course I started off with the ones who I'd already assigned a look alike too.

#7- Barry B. Benson

#10- Smoker Meme

#14- Pomegranate

"Hmmm," I sighed, tapping my chin as I watched their ace get a powerful kill, and an applause from Miya Osamu. "He gives me GloZell vibes. And he actually has a twin."

#4- GloZell

#11- Miya Atsumu

Hotel-Trivago.

"Perfect! Oh, never mind there's another one," I grumbled as their captain was finally subbed in.

He had white and black hair that lay plainly over his face, and wore a calm expression on his face.

"There captain isn't a starter?" Yachi asked as I eyed the boy up and down.

"Maybe he specializes in something?" I questioned, watching him take his place in the back row.

"That's got to be it-"

"OH MY GOD HE LOOKS LIKE A MINECRAFT WOLF WOAHHHHH!" I exclaimed, practically going starry eyed as I gazed out at the court.

"I'm not going to question it," Yachi laughed, returning her attention to the play which had just begun.

#1- Minecraft Wolf

"Perfe- woahhhhhh," I breathed as the wolf dove across the ground, basically punching the ball back into the air after it was ricocheted off of a block.

It soon became clear that my ✨hypothesis✨ was right. (lol what are we? buddy from the dinosaur train? choo choo bitch😀)

The captain made many excellent saves throughout his time on the court, even receiving Tadashi's serves with perfect form.

Unfortunately, we lost the second set 25-16 when they brought in a different punched server who targeted Tanaka.

They then used their number 10 who delivered an incredibly powerful quick which Kageyama was unable to receive.

"Agh!" Yachi grumbled as she held her hands millimetres apart from each other as she gritted her teeth.

"Dang it, how powerful are the smoker dudes attacks?" I whined as the boys slowly made their way off the court.

"All of Inarizaki is powerful! I would faint if I even had to stand near them," Yachi shivered.

I could feel that tensions were high in the gym, and you could literally see the word 'stressed' painted on Yachi's forehead.

So naturally, I decided I had to do something to cheer her up.

I reopened my phone, going too google and searching up Miya Atsumu.

Too my delight, there were many pictures of him on the internet, so I screenshotted a few of his face along with a certain animal.

I then tilted my phone away from Yachi as I opened my photoshop app, inserting the two photos and layering them over each other.

I selected the face of the Atsumu and cut it out so the picture below showed through, and I blended the edges so it looked ✨polished✨.

"Uhm...so Yachi..." I trailed off, starring intently at my phone screen.

"Y-yes?" she asked as I gave her a serious look, placing one hand on her shoulders.

"I know you're scared, but I need you to see who we're up against. You have nothing to worry about."

With that, I turned my phone around to reveal my creation as her eyes widened with astonishment.

(lol obviously creds go to whoever actually made this masterpiece)

"Y/N! What have you done?" she gasped through giggles as I smiled brightly and downloaded the image.

"I'm channeling my inner Davinki!" I cheered as the teams returned too the court, and I took it upon myself to send the photo too the Karasuno groupchat.

"You're channeling something alright," Yachi laughed.

I simply nodded, looking up just as Barry Benson served, getting yet another service ace against Nishinoya.

"Gagh! Why can't he leave my Nishi alone," I huffed, crossing my arms and raising one eyebrow.

On the next rally the ball clipped the edge of the net, and Nishi barely reacted in time before diving forwards and passing it up.

Asahi was able too get a hit off, ending Atsumus serving run right then and there. (thank you jesus❤️)

"I think my heart stopped beating," Yachi breathed, placing a hand on her chest as I looked over to her.

"YACHI! Now is not the time to die!" I exclaimed, hitting her on the back.

"W-what about fainting from nerves?" she asked hopefully, swaying back and forth before falling backwards.

"Ah fuck, I can't believe you've done this," I sighed, catching her and bringing her back up to a standing position as she took a deep breath.

She simply let out a small laugh before steadying herself, and leaning away from my support.

I dropped my arms and looked up in time too see Kageyama blocking Inarizakis ace all by himself like the independent queen he is😌🤚🏼

"GOOD JOB KAGEYAMAAAAA!" I cheered, clapping happily and looking up at the scoreboard.

3-2. Not a bad start.

The boys also claimed the next point when Daichi dug up Suna Rintarou's quick after Tsukki closed out his other options for hitting, setting the score at 2-4.

"You see that? I think Tsukkishima's been narrowing down the path of the ball!" Yachi exclaimed, pointing too the salty dinosaur.

"Really? What makes you say that?" I asked.

"Well, he hasn't been trying too intentionally kill #10's spikes. He's always been closing out any other options as if too tell the players in the back where the hit will be going!" she explained cheerily as I looked back too the court.

"So...Tsukkishima is capable of something useful after all?" I laughed as Ukai called for another substitution.

I looked up and smiled, seeing that my fellow second year, Kinoshita, was standing at the sideline.

----------------------------------------------------------

hey y'all, here's your chapter🥰

I'm starting regular school again on Monday now that exam break is over *cries* so I have absolutely no idea when the next few chapters will come out.

Although, there will probably only be about another 3 chapters before I have to pause this book🤧

Although I know the manga has been finished, I don't have access to it and would rather wait too finish this story until the next season comes out.

But don't worry, I have...a few too many things prepared for y'all😌

sleep tight and try not too get haunted by Barry Benson❤️
