The Baseball Game.

Soon, the loud bell rang, signalling for school to be over. As soon as it rang, the boys began to run through the woods for the baseball game. After five minutes of them leaving, the girls were all outside, still in their gym kits, sighing.

"We're finally done." Suiko said.

"Hey, should we go watch the boys and cheer for them?" Aina asked.

"Sounds like a good idea to me." Megu said. The girls then ran through the woods, except Saika, who just stood there. She put her hand on her arm and looked down. Yukiko stopped running and looked at Saika.

"Saika-Chan?" Yukiko questioned.

"I have... Things to do..." Saika said. Yukiko blinked twice before nodding.

"Ok. See you later." She said as she ran after the rest of the girls. Saika sighed.

"Why would people want to play a horrid sport that only injures you?" Saika asked.

"It's not all painful." Saika jumped and flinched back as Korosensei stood beside her.

"Where did you come from?! You scared the life out of me!" Saika exclaimed.

"Ah, sorry!" Korosensei said. Saika sighed.

"Shouldn't you be with the boys?" She asked.

"I think you need me more than they do." Korosensei said.

"Why would I need an octopus?" Saika asked.

"To teach you a lesson." Korosensei said. Saika just looked away from him. "Not every experience is good, like not every experience is bad. You experienced something, which has made you believe that everything that relates to baseball is bad." Korosensei explained.

"Because it is..." Saika said.

"But it's not. Baseball isn't all bad Sumi-Chan. Baseball is a sport, that many people enjoy, because they have fun while playing it. Yes. Baseball is a dangerous sport, but it is only dangerous if one person makes it so." Korosensei explained. Saika's grip on her arm tightened. "The only way of conquering your fear Sumi-San, is to face it. I thought it would be easy for the eldest child of the Sumi family." Korosensei said. Saika's eyes went wide as she looked at him.

"How did you know that?" She gasped.

"You resemble the picture the elder of the Sumi family." Korosensei explained. Saika sighed. "You should go and cheer for them. I know that it would help them." Korosensei said as he walked away.

"How... How will me being there help them?" She asked. Korosensei stopped.

"Sugino has seemed to have created a bond with you in this past week. I'm sure your cheering would help him feel more confident." Korosensei said before leaving through the woods, leaving Saika stood there in silence.

...

"Alright guys, now look alive. Class A has all members of the baseball team on their team, so, they're pretty good." Ayato explained.

"Right. We can do this." Yuma said.

"Right!" The rest said. On the team, there was Ayato, Akito, Tomohito, Yuma, Hiroto, Hideo, Haku, Ai, Karma, Masayoshi and Nagisa. They were batting first. Ayato was introduced as he picked up a bat. As he stood in front of the pitcher, the girls from E class and R class cheered, until they heard some screams from girls from other classes.

"It's Ayato-Sama!" Some cried.

"Sama?" Hinano questioned. Yuzuru giggled.

"A-a l-lot of the girls h-h-have a crush o-on Ayato-Kun." Yuzuru explained. The pitcher served a fast pitch at Ayato, who hit it into the field. He then ran to first base before the ball was back. The ball then hit first base and the girls cheered. Akito was up next. He sighed.
