~Monday~
Sanada Genichiro was not really a morning person. (At least, that's what a lot of the tennis club members said about him at morning practice and that was why he was always assigning punishment laps.) The good side of this was if you caught him while half asleep he was...somewhat agreeable at times.
However, on this morning, in his half asleep state, he pulled on his school uniform, half wondering why he was having trouble buttoning his shirt. Even in this half asleep state, he hadn't had this much trouble with buttons since he was four years old. He was frowning (which was fairly normal) and sighed. They had practice before school anyway, so he tossed his school uniform in his bag, and grabbed his jersey which was somewhat better fitting, but still a bit tight. After that, he set off for school, amazingly not meeting any of his teammates as he walked.
Sanada did think he was getting stared at a lot more. And mostly by men. That rather disturbed him somewhat.
"Good morning, Genichiro." Yanagi Renji greeted their team's vice-captain, and then noticed something rather...unusual. Unfortunately, he rather stared at Sanada. Just like all the other men had this morning.
"What are you staring at, Renji?" He asked.
"You're not aware of your...ah...new 'development'?" Yanagi asked, raising an eyebrow. Sanada stared back, glowering at him from under his cap. Apparently from the non-answer Yanagi was getting, he wasn't. "I see you're not."
Sanada now looked confused. "Renji..." He was starting to get cranky with their data master. "Just what is going on?"
"Whoa! Fukubucho has boobs!"
Sanada looked down at his chest, noticed the two rather large lumps on his chest, his eyes widening in horror. He promptly fainted. Yanagi looked over at Niou.
"You couldn't have said that a little more gently?" He asked the trickster. Niou just shrugged. Yanagi sighed. "Help me carry him ... her...umm...to the club room. Everyone should be out and practicing by now. I'm fairly certain we're the last three." Yanagi frowned as he and Niou picked up their unconscious vice-captain.
Yukimura looked up and noticed Yanagi and Niou carrying...'Was that Genichiro?' Yukimura thought to himself. He turned around, making sure the rest of the team was doing something tennis related. After he ordered a few idle freshmen to run if they weren't going to do anything, he headed for the club room. "Renji? What's going on?" Yukimura asked, staring at the unconscious Sanada laid out on the bench. "Oh...my."
"Don't ask me how this happened because I do not know." Yanagi said as he hurriedly finished changing.
"It is rather interesting, isn't it, bucho?" Niou grinned, grabbing his racket and heading out to the courts.
"Niou?" When Niou turned back, the buchou smiled. "Don't say anything to the team." Yukimura's eyes glittered menacingly.
"Of course." Niou said, smirking a little.
"You had better have something good up your sleeve for him, Seiichi." Yanagi said, poking at Sanada. He really wanted to touch the newly grown lumps, but this was his friend. And you don't touch your friend's breasts, even if they just suddenly appeared on your friend overnight. "Are you wondering what I'm wondering?" Yanagi asked Yukimura.
"I think it would be rather rude to look." He said. "but I am." He said, slapping Sanada's face lightly to wake him up. "Genichiro?" Sanada's eyes fluttered open slowly, and he stared up at his two best friends.
"Seiichi?" Sanada asked, looking up into Yukimura's eyes. "I think I had a bad dream."
Yukimura bit his lip. Yanagi was debating whether or not this was actually happening, then he suddenly reached out and groped at Sanada's newly formed chest. Yukimura and Sanada both stared at their friend like he had lost his marbles, Sanada batting Yanagi's hand away. Yanagi smirked a little. "I don't think it's a dream, Genichiro."
Sanada glared at Yanagi. "I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but...did you change there as well?" Yukimura asked. Sanada's eye went wide. If he had breasts...did that mean he lost...? Sanada froze, his brain breaking. "Renji, 50 laps for molesting Genichiro."
Yanagi muttered something to the effect that it wasn't really molestation. Yukimura shook his head, and smacked Sanada in the face again. Sanada was quite confused, scared, and worst of all he had two rather large lumps on his chest that previously had none. "I...have breasts." Sanada said, poking one, and feeling himself up.
"He's not going to get laps for feeling himself up?" Yanagi asked, thinking that was rather unfair. Yukimura just looked at him with that look that says 'My word is law.' Yanagi sighed, and figured maybe he'd better not get that number any higher for the moment. "Genichiro?" Yanagi asked, helping the former boy sit up. Sanada just kept the shocked look on his face and let Yanagi pull him up. "We'll help you." Yanagi promised.
Yukimura nodded, and went to get the first aid kit. "First, you're going to have to survive the school day. Did you bring your uniform?" Sanada nodded, wondering exactly what Yukimura was going to do to. "This is going to be uncomfortable, but we don't want everyone to suspect something." He sighed as he pulled out all the ace bandages he could find. "If Niou hasn't spread it all over the school by now. Take your shirt off." Sanada stared at him like he had grown another head.
"Seiichi is right. And it's much easier to bind them with another person helping." Yanagi said in Yukimura's defense.
"I don't want to know how you know that." Yukimura said, looking at Yanagi strangely.
"My sister is in a cosplay group that does cross-play." Yanagi told him anyway. "Genichiro, I won't molest you anymore, I promise. Seiichi and I have both seen breasts before. We do have sisters." Yukimura nodded.
"We can't do this over your shirt. We promise we'll keep it a secret for now, or until you're normal, IF you ever become normal again." Yukimura said, trying to reassure his vice-captain. Sanada nodded and nervously took his shirt off. "Renji, go make sure no one comes in while we're doing this." Yanagi nodded and took up a guarding position near the door.
Yukimura wrapped the bandages tightly around Sanada's chest, talking quietly to him. Yukimura nodded and clasped the bandages finally, then handed Sanada his school uniform shirt, and told him to get dressed for the day.
"This doesn't bode well, does it?" Yanagi asked as Yukimura walked past him, motioning for Yanagi to follow.
"I would say not." Yukimura said. "You can do your laps after school. Right now, I need you to supervise practice for the rest of the morning. First years, drills, second years, free practice, regulars, practice matches, with second years if they want." Yukimura gave the instructions to Yanagi who nodded in acknowledgement. "I'm taking Genichiro to see the headmaster and see what we can do, if anything."
"I hope it goes well for you." Yanagi said, turning to the chaos that was Rikkai's tennis courts and taking a deep breath, relaying Yukimura's orders. He was just thankful that the younger ones respected him just as much as they did Sanada and Yukimura. He didn't have Sanada's temper(thankfully), nor did he have Yukimura's calm air that demanded respect, but he did have a rather loud voice when they needed it.
Yukimura and Sanada were not having a good Monday morning to say the least. Other than demanding that due to Sanada's circumstances, he now wear the girl's uniform the visit with the headmaster was rather uneventful. Oh, there was the demand that the school's nurse take a look to see that Sanada actually was a girl. Even with the bindings, his chest still stuck out.
That was the most scarring visit to the nurse Sanada had ever had. Now the nurse had felt Sanada up as well. Sanada was certainly thinking of a way to get back at everyone that had groped his breasts so far. And he was seriously considering hitting the next person that did into next week.
Yukimura escorted Sanada to class, making sure no one else tried to molest his friend. There were some odd looks in Sanada's direction, but upon seeing Yukimura's glare, everyone just turned back to what they were doing and pretended that the person they had last seen before the weekend that was definitely male that was now suddenly the opposite sex was perfectly normal.
After that, things went fairly normally until their lunch break. The rumors had spread throughout the school by that point, even down through the second and first year classes, and several of the students wanted to see this decidedly odd sight.
Thankfully, Yukimura rescued Sanada from being the day's freak show and took his friend to the tennis club's room. The only other person there was Yanagi, who was pacing nervously and glaring at his cell phone. Yukimura looked at him oddly. "I have an idea what might have happened."
Sanada glared. "This is just a dream...no, a nightmare that I will wake up from soon." Yukimura just patted his back.
"I wish it was. Don't worry, things will be normal soon. I'm sure there's a way to fix this." Yukimura said, trying to reassure Sanada. They all looked up as Yanagi's phone beeped. He frowned as he read his text message. Yukimura just ignored Yanagi for the moment. "What did you do this weekend, Genichiro?" He asked, trying to make polite conversation while trying to figure out what happened.
Sanada blinked. "I went to a party." He answered, not offering more than that.
"Who all was there?" Yanagi asked as he was answering the message. He had a pretty good idea, but he wanted to hear it from someone that had been there.
Sanada rolled his eyes. "Some people from Hyoutei, Seigaku, a few of our people." He said. Yukimura was just staring at Sanada. Sanada and "party" did not belong in the same sentence.
Yanagi nodded, filing that information away in his head. Yukimura turned his head to his strategist. Yanagi looked up. "Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're not the only one that's had an impromptu sex change."
"Others have been affected?" Yukimura asked. "Who?"
"Some of the Seigaku players. And they're all blaming one person."
"Who are they blaming?" Sanada asked, wanting to join in the hating of this person.
"Oddly enough, Sadaharu." Yanagi frowned, wondering just exactly what his old friend had done, if he had actually done it. Of course, the message Yanagi had just gotten from him ('No time - running for my life - talk later!') made him sound pretty guilty. He checked his watch. "We need to get back to class."
Yukimura nodded, and turned to Sanada. "This is going to break your heart, but go home after school. Renji and I will come over after practice." Sanada nodded, understanding. They all stood up, Sanada pulling down the skirt he'd been forced into. Yukimura just smiled tolerantly. It couldn't be easy being something you weren't.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Seigaku's Fuji and Echizen have also been affected by this...unique event." Yanagi was saying as he and Yukimura joined Sanada. And try as he might, he just couldn't keep from staring at Sanada's chest now that it had been unbound and was freely bouncing around.
Yukimura frowned and hit Yanagi in the arm. "50 laps in the morning." Yanagi blinked.
"What did I do?" He asked.
"You're perving on Genichiro." Yukimura said. Yanagi sighed, and tried to get on with their business.
"As I was saying, Fuji and Echizen are also affected." Yanagi held out a printed off email. "This is the ingredient list for Sadaharu's latest disaster." He paused. "Along with a rather long apology, never mind it's not me he needs to be apologizing to." He pushed the paper over to Sanada who glared at it.
"I thought that stuff was nasty..." He said. "But..."
"Sadaharu has a tendency to use very...unique ingredients." Yanagi looked rather amused. Yukimura was reading the paper over Sanada's shoulder and was shaking his head, and expressing his own distaste for some of the ingredients. Yukimura looked up and stared at Yanagi.
"What do we do now? Wait this off?" Yukimura asked quietly. "I need my vice-captain."
"I'm sure Renji is perfectly able to take my place." Sanada said, feeling oddly resigned to living like this for the rest of his life.
"I didn't want it before, and I still don't." Yanagi said. "Don't think we can't fix this." He pulled out his cell phone and dialed an old number. "When in doubt, ask the source." He said, smiling a little.
Sanada was trying not to have a nervous breakdown. Yukimura noticed this, but did nothing, as much as he thought he should be doing something. But it was still Sanada. Sanada Genichiro did not have nervous breakdowns.
They both looked up as Yanagi closed his phone. "Good news or bad news?" He asked.
"Bad first, please." Sanada said. He didn't think there could be much more bad news in store for him.
"The bad news is Sadaharu isn't sure if it will wear off, but he thinks it should by Friday or Saturday. The good news is, Fuji-san isn't happy about this and is threatening Sadaharu to come up with something to change them all back before then. He says if it works on Fuji and Echizen, he'll pass it on to me for you." Yanagi said, hoping that all made sense.
"We have a competition on Saturday." Yukimura frowned. "We need Genichiro back before then so he can at least make a couple practices this week. Even if he does change back on Saturday, I still can't put him in."
Sanada nodded. It was the rule. "We need a cure by Wednesday then."
~Friday~
Wednesday came and went without any cures being passed along to Yanagi. Yukimura was frustrated and mad beyond belief. Everyone was avoiding him. Everyone except Sanada, who had more reason to be upset as he was still female, and therefore shouldn't have even been at practice. Yanagi had quickly adapted to the moods that their captain and vice-captain were in lately, trying to keep himself from either of them when they were extra upset and definitely trying to keep himself from watching Sanada's chest.
Sanada had waited for his friends on Friday afternoon, glaring at the people who gave him odd looks despite his having looked this way for the past week. Maybe it was the fact that he was forced to be wearing a skirt. He really did look awkward in the girl's uniform, despite the fact that between his two male best friends and his mother finding out and insisting that he wear proper undergarments. That was an ordeal Sanada would prefer to forget as well.
As usual, Yukimura and Yanagi were the last two out of the club room.
"Genichiro, I still haven't heard anything." Yanagi said as they joined up with him. "The reports from Sadaharu have not been very reassuring, honestly."
Sanada just glared, not happy to hear that news.
Yukimura sighed a little. "I hate being short a player." He said quietly.
"We'll still win." Sanada said, not only to reassure but because he felt it was true.
The three just walked on in silence. Though that silence was broken soon. "You know, the cheerleading squad is going to our match as well..." Yanagi said. That stopped Sanada in his tracks, and about falling over if it hadn't been for Yukimura grabbing his arm and keeping Sanada from falling over and more than likely exposing himself. Who knew how many other perverts were around other than Yanagi.
"Renji..." Yukimura trailed off.
"I only mentioned it because it is technically a school sponsored 'sport' and since they are going to cheer on the tennis club..." He paused to see if Yukimura was catching on. "I'm still running another 50 laps, aren't I?"
Yukimura nodded. "I think I get what you're after though. And yes, you are. Though I'm thinking you're enjoying running those laps way too much since you seem to keep making these comments that are making me wonder if you have a bit of a crush on our Gen-chan." Yukimura looked way too pleased with himself as Yanagi blushed a little.
"Not...entirely."
"Renji. No. Not in a million years." Sanada said, trying not to blush himself. "I fully intend on being male again, and...no." Then he glared directly at Yanagi. "Besides, perhaps if you want a date you should try asking and not acting like a complete pervert." He thought about it. "And no, I'm not joining the cheerleaders."
"It was just a suggestion." Yanagi said, turning at a corner to head for his own home. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Some suggestion." Sanada muttered. "I don't even like wearing the school uniform, and he wants me to wear a dress?!"
"I'm sure Renji didn't mean anything by it." Yukimura said, trying to believe that Yanagi's intentions were somewhat honorable and not as perverted as he thought. Oh, who was he kidding. Yukimura wanted a piece of that too, but he was too focused on other things. Things like tennis, which is what they all were supposed to be focused on. That didn't mean at night his body wouldn't think of things do with those breasts. Yukimura eyed Sanada up and down. Oh, what he could do with all of that.
"Seiichi. Stop it. It's bad enough Renji looks at me like that." Sanada said, trying to remember that these two were his friends and they were trying to help. He was wondering if they couldn't try harder though.
Yukimura shook his head and blushed. "I'm sorry, Genichiro." Yukimura patted the boy-turned-girl's shoulder. "I'll see you tomorrow. Yes, I expect you to be there." He said, turning to head to his own home.
Sanada just shook his head and headed to his own home. Life couldn't be much worse right now.
"Gen-chan!" Sanada's mother called as he walked in. Sanada bristled at the nickname. It was bad enough Yukimura called him that occasionally since the switch, but his mother as well? He sighed and went to join his mother in the kitchen. "Oh, good." She smiled and gestured for her now daughter to take a seat.
"What is it, Mother?" He asked. He had things he could be doing, and he wanted out of the skirt.
"I was just wondering if you were considering perhaps dating either of those friends of yours. They're such nice boys, and either of them would make such wonderful husbands..." She trailed off.
Genichiro stormed off to his room, freaked. Didn't his mother believe she'd have her son back eventually? And the fact that she thought that Renji or Seiichi would be a good husband?! He was wrong. Life could be much worse. Damn that Inui. Damn that party. He was even cursing Yanagi occasionally as he finally started breaking down, curling up into a ball on the floor, forgetting about just about everything, even how much he hated the skirt he was wearing.
Genichiro heard his phone start ringing and lifted his head to look at it from where he sat. Couldn't he have a breakdown in peace? He crawled over to his desk where it sat and grabbed it. He looked at it to see who was calling and frowned a little. He wasn't really in the mood to talk to Yanagi, especially after their conversation after school. He was glad when it quit ringing. However it beeped with a text message a few minutes later.
Gen -
6:30 meet at train station. Going to Tokyo. Tell you why later
-Renji
Genichiro just rolled his eyes, and got up and changed into some pants at least. Why couldn't the girl's uniforms have pants instead of a skirt. He also shed the sweater and got rid of the tie. That was much better for the moment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was just barely before 6:30 when Yanagi came up to Sanada at the station. "I'm glad to see you came." Yanagi said as he pulled the girl along with him.
"Renji, why?" Sanada finally asked once they were settled on the train, and he was calm enough to glare at his friend. "You did say you'd explain."
"I did, didn't I?" Yanagi paused for a moment, letting a bit of tension build up. Sanada was getting pissed the longer Yanagi let the silence drag on. "I'll give you two reasons. First, I may have taken your advice in my own way." Sanada coughed, resisting the urge to smack Yanagi across the face. "Second, Fuji and Echizen are back to normal, and Sadaharu thinks that any subsequent batches of the antidote might not be as potent as the first batch, and there's just enough left."
Well, the second reason was a damned good one. Sanada glared a bit harder at Yanagi. "So this is a date?"
"Not really. Especially considering that once you're back to yourself...Well, honestly, you'd give me worse than Seiichi has been during practice."
"You've deserved every lap, Renji." Sanada said, smiling a little.
"Actually I haven't. Seiichi has been...'fantasizing' about you in the showers at school." Yanagi said, smiling a little as Sanada blushed. "He doesn't think anyone knows though. It was rather hard to miss his screaming out "Gen-chan" as he came though." Okay, Sanada was a tomato now.
"Renji!" He barked, not really wanting or needing to know that. Sanada tried to blend in with the scenery, but was failing miserably. Yanagi wrapped his arm around Sanada and just hugged him with that one arm.
"It's alright. Despite how perverted we may seem recently, it's only because...Well, I don't think any of us has really dealt with the issue of girls before. We're all too focused on tennis and school to even be looking at girls, and then one of our leaders suddenly switches sex on us...It was a bit too much to hope for, honestly. And Monday, when you came into practice, and Niou said what he did, I can tell you that most of us were thinking the same thing but we were just too polite to say it." Yanagi took a breath.
Sanada just sighed, and shifted a little in his seat. "It's not like I wanted this to happen."
"Sadaharu had some...rather interesting information he gave me." Yanagi said quietly. "Apparently Fuji and Echizen were...How should I put this...They were intimate with certain people before they switched as well."
Sanada gulped a little. Does this mean that Yanagi knew more than he was letting on. "Really?" Sanada said, attempting to keep his voice neutral.
"I won't tell, but I want to know. Did you?"
Sanada just sighed and nodded. Yanagi just raised an eyebrow. "Atobe, of all people. Actually," And Sanada went even redder at this. "It was a threesome with Fuji as well."
"I never thought you'd be that kind of person, Genichiro."
"Which became an orgy with Tezuka and Echizen joining us."
Yanagi coughed to clear his throat. There was so much that people could hide from their friends. "So we wouldn't have had a chance anyway?""
"I never said I liked any of them." Sanada said getting up as they approached the stop. Yanagi rose as well, feeling, well, rather protective.
"Sadaharu said it was the bottoms that were affected." Sanada froze once he was off the train.
"You breathe a word of this to anyone, Renji, and I'll make sure you'll be living the rest of your life as a girl." Sanada threatened.
Yanagi silently thanked Inui for coming up with the antidote this soon because he didn't think anyone could deal with a PMSing Sanada. "I understand." Was all Yanagi said before leading Sanada down some familiar streets.
They walked in silence for a while. "Renji?" Sanada asked, realizing he may not be having the brightest idea in the world at the moment, but he did feel sorry for his friend.
"What is it, Genichiro?" Yanagi stopped and turned to face him.
"Do you remember that children's fairy tale, Cinderella?"
Yanagi smiled. "Planning on losing a glass slipper?"
Sanada laughed. "Not exactly. How late do you think your friend will be up?"
"Late. But I think we should be there before 10." Yanagi offered Sanada his arm. "What would hime-sama like to do first."
"Dinner at least. I had to skip dinner at home to meet you." Sanada said as he took Yanagi's arm, the two looking very much like they were on an actual date. They slipped into the first place they saw, and just talked politely as if there was nothing wrong or weird about this. And really, there wasn't.
Once their stomachs were full, Yanagi led them down the street and to a high rise apartment building. They walked their way to apartment 522. "The ball has come to an end, Cinderella." Yanagi said, smiling a little, leaning in and kissing one of his best friends.
Sanada was shocked to say the least, and was still speechless when the door opened without either him or Yanagi having knocking.
"I had good odds on this." Inui said. Yanagi pulled back, coughing a little, and trying not to blush. Sanada didn't even try not to, but he was thankful for his trusty cap. Inui just grinned and pulled both of them inside, then went to get the antidote.
Sanada glared at Yanagi. "No one is ever going to find out." Yanagi nodded.
"Of course not." Yanagi agreed as Inui came back with a rather murky looking liquid. Sanada looked at him and glared.
"It works. Ask Fuji."
Sanada just sighed, grabbed the glass, closed his eyes and drank. "Nasty." He said.
"You finally made something that doesn't knock people out? I'm amazed, Sadaharu." Yanagi asked, rather amused. "How long until it works."
"It took about six hours for it to work on Echizen, but it took almost twice as long for Fuji." Inui looked at Sanada. "It may be even longer for you." Inui turned to Yanagi. "That's why I wanted him to have the last of the first batch. Hopefully, it will work."
"We're all hoping that." Yanagi said. "We should be going home before the trains stop running. I'll email you with the results." He promised Inui and turned himself and Sanada towards the door.
~Saturday~
"Renji, where's Genichiro?" Yukimura asked, scanning the crowd. "I thought I told him to be here regardless."
"He caught a rather nasty bug last night, and he's extremely sick." Yanagi said, calmly watching as Niou and Yagyuu destroyed their opponents. "Don't worry, so much, Seiichi."
"Only because I trust you, Renji."
~Monday~
After another rather embarrassing visit to the school's nurse who made sure that things were back to what was exactly written in Sanada-kun's file, Sanada strode on to the practice courts looking...very awake, and rather pissy, but he didn't have two watermelons hanging from his chest now.
Kirihara 'eep'ed a little, and went far, far away. Marui and Jackal just followed Kirihara, mostly in the name of protecting the brat.
Yukimura strode up to Sanada. "Good to see you back to normal." He said quietly. Sanada just adjusted his hat and tried to forget what Yanagi had told him on Friday night. He just nodded, then he caught sight of the two that had pissed him off the most the last week.
"Niou! Yanagi! Start running NOW!" Sanada yelled at them. Yanagi bristled a little at the use of his surname, but didn't question the order. Niou on the other hand...
"What did I do?" Niou asked Yanagi as he jogged along side him.
"Don't ever tell a girl the obvious." Yanagi said, and sprinted ahead.
It was good to have things back to normal.

~Monday~
Sanada Genichiro was not really a morning person. (At least, that's what a lot of the tennis club members said about him at morning practice and that was why he was always assigning punishment laps.) The good side of this was if you caught him while half asleep he was...somewhat agreeable at times.
However, on this morning, in his half asleep state, he pulled on his school uniform, half wondering why he was having trouble buttoning his shirt. Even in this half asleep state, he hadn't had this much trouble with buttons since he was four years old. He was frowning (which was fairly normal) and sighed. They had practice before school anyway, so he tossed his school uniform in his bag, and grabbed his jersey which was somewhat better fitting, but still a bit tight. After that, he set off for school, amazingly not meeting any of his teammates as he walked.
Sanada did think he was getting stared at a lot more. And mostly by men. That rather disturbed him somewhat.
"Good morning, Genichiro." Yanagi Renji greeted their team's vice-captain, and then noticed something rather...unusual. Unfortunately, he rather stared at Sanada. Just like all the other men had this morning.
"What are you staring at, Renji?" He asked.
"You're not aware of your...ah...new 'development'?" Yanagi asked, raising an eyebrow. Sanada stared back, glowering at him from under his cap. Apparently from the non-answer Yanagi was getting, he wasn't. "I see you're not."
Sanada now looked confused. "Renji..." He was starting to get cranky with their data master. "Just what is going on?"
"Whoa! Fukubucho has boobs!"
Sanada looked down at his chest, noticed the two rather large lumps on his chest, his eyes widening in horror. He promptly fainted. Yanagi looked over at Niou.
"You couldn't have said that a little more gently?" He asked the trickster. Niou just shrugged. Yanagi sighed. "Help me carry him ... her...umm...to the club room. Everyone should be out and practicing by now. I'm fairly certain we're the last three." Yanagi frowned as he and Niou picked up their unconscious vice-captain.
Yukimura looked up and noticed Yanagi and Niou carrying...'Was that Genichiro?' Yukimura thought to himself. He turned around, making sure the rest of the team was doing something tennis related. After he ordered a few idle freshmen to run if they weren't going to do anything, he headed for the club room. "Renji? What's going on?" Yukimura asked, staring at the unconscious Sanada laid out on the bench. "Oh...my."
"Don't ask me how this happened because I do not know." Yanagi said as he hurriedly finished changing.
"It is rather interesting, isn't it, bucho?" Niou grinned, grabbing his racket and heading out to the courts.
"Niou?" When Niou turned back, the buchou smiled. "Don't say anything to the team." Yukimura's eyes glittered menacingly.
"Of course." Niou said, smirking a little.
"You had better have something good up your sleeve for him, Seiichi." Yanagi said, poking at Sanada. He really wanted to touch the newly grown lumps, but this was his friend. And you don't touch your friend's breasts, even if they just suddenly appeared on your friend overnight. "Are you wondering what I'm wondering?" Yanagi asked Yukimura.
"I think it would be rather rude to look." He said. "but I am." He said, slapping Sanada's face lightly to wake him up. "Genichiro?" Sanada's eyes fluttered open slowly, and he stared up at his two best friends.
"Seiichi?" Sanada asked, looking up into Yukimura's eyes. "I think I had a bad dream."
Yukimura bit his lip. Yanagi was debating whether or not this was actually happening, then he suddenly reached out and groped at Sanada's newly formed chest. Yukimura and Sanada both stared at their friend like he had lost his marbles, Sanada batting Yanagi's hand away. Yanagi smirked a little. "I don't think it's a dream, Genichiro."
Sanada glared at Yanagi. "I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but...did you change there as well?" Yukimura asked. Sanada's eye went wide. If he had breasts...did that mean he lost...? Sanada froze, his brain breaking. "Renji, 50 laps for molesting Genichiro."
Yanagi muttered something to the effect that it wasn't really molestation. Yukimura shook his head, and smacked Sanada in the face again. Sanada was quite confused, scared, and worst of all he had two rather large lumps on his chest that previously had none. "I...have breasts." Sanada said, poking one, and feeling himself up.
"He's not going to get laps for feeling himself up?" Yanagi asked, thinking that was rather unfair. Yukimura just looked at him with that look that says 'My word is law.' Yanagi sighed, and figured maybe he'd better not get that number any higher for the moment. "Genichiro?" Yanagi asked, helping the former boy sit up. Sanada just kept the shocked look on his face and let Yanagi pull him up. "We'll help you." Yanagi promised.
Yukimura nodded, and went to get the first aid kit. "First, you're going to have to survive the school day. Did you bring your uniform?" Sanada nodded, wondering exactly what Yukimura was going to do to. "This is going to be uncomfortable, but we don't want everyone to suspect something." He sighed as he pulled out all the ace bandages he could find. "If Niou hasn't spread it all over the school by now. Take your shirt off." Sanada stared at him like he had grown another head.
"Seiichi is right. And it's much easier to bind them with another person helping." Yanagi said in Yukimura's defense.
"I don't want to know how you know that." Yukimura said, looking at Yanagi strangely.
"My sister is in a cosplay group that does cross-play." Yanagi told him anyway. "Genichiro, I won't molest you anymore, I promise. Seiichi and I have both seen breasts before. We do have sisters." Yukimura nodded.
"We can't do this over your shirt. We promise we'll keep it a secret for now, or until you're normal, IF you ever become normal again." Yukimura said, trying to reassure his vice-captain. Sanada nodded and nervously took his shirt off. "Renji, go make sure no one comes in while we're doing this." Yanagi nodded and took up a guarding position near the door.
Yukimura wrapped the bandages tightly around Sanada's chest, talking quietly to him. Yukimura nodded and clasped the bandages finally, then handed Sanada his school uniform shirt, and told him to get dressed for the day.
"This doesn't bode well, does it?" Yanagi asked as Yukimura walked past him, motioning for Yanagi to follow.
"I would say not." Yukimura said. "You can do your laps after school. Right now, I need you to supervise practice for the rest of the morning. First years, drills, second years, free practice, regulars, practice matches, with second years if they want." Yukimura gave the instructions to Yanagi who nodded in acknowledgement. "I'm taking Genichiro to see the headmaster and see what we can do, if anything."
"I hope it goes well for you." Yanagi said, turning to the chaos that was Rikkai's tennis courts and taking a deep breath, relaying Yukimura's orders. He was just thankful that the younger ones respected him just as much as they did Sanada and Yukimura. He didn't have Sanada's temper(thankfully), nor did he have Yukimura's calm air that demanded respect, but he did have a rather loud voice when they needed it.
Yukimura and Sanada were not having a good Monday morning to say the least. Other than demanding that due to Sanada's circumstances, he now wear the girl's uniform the visit with the headmaster was rather uneventful. Oh, there was the demand that the school's nurse take a look to see that Sanada actually was a girl. Even with the bindings, his chest still stuck out.
That was the most scarring visit to the nurse Sanada had ever had. Now the nurse had felt Sanada up as well. Sanada was certainly thinking of a way to get back at everyone that had groped his breasts so far. And he was seriously considering hitting the next person that did into next week.
Yukimura escorted Sanada to class, making sure no one else tried to molest his friend. There were some odd looks in Sanada's direction, but upon seeing Yukimura's glare, everyone just turned back to what they were doing and pretended that the person they had last seen before the weekend that was definitely male that was now suddenly the opposite sex was perfectly normal.
After that, things went fairly normally until their lunch break. The rumors had spread throughout the school by that point, even down through the second and first year classes, and several of the students wanted to see this decidedly odd sight.
Thankfully, Yukimura rescued Sanada from being the day's freak show and took his friend to the tennis club's room. The only other person there was Yanagi, who was pacing nervously and glaring at his cell phone. Yukimura looked at him oddly. "I have an idea what might have happened."
Sanada glared. "This is just a dream...no, a nightmare that I will wake up from soon." Yukimura just patted his back.
"I wish it was. Don't worry, things will be normal soon. I'm sure there's a way to fix this." Yukimura said, trying to reassure Sanada. They all looked up as Yanagi's phone beeped. He frowned as he read his text message. Yukimura just ignored Yanagi for the moment. "What did you do this weekend, Genichiro?" He asked, trying to make polite conversation while trying to figure out what happened.
Sanada blinked. "I went to a party." He answered, not offering more than that.
"Who all was there?" Yanagi asked as he was answering the message. He had a pretty good idea, but he wanted to hear it from someone that had been there.
Sanada rolled his eyes. "Some people from Hyoutei, Seigaku, a few of our people." He said. Yukimura was just staring at Sanada. Sanada and "party" did not belong in the same sentence.
Yanagi nodded, filing that information away in his head. Yukimura turned his head to his strategist. Yanagi looked up. "Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're not the only one that's had an impromptu sex change."
"Others have been affected?" Yukimura asked. "Who?"
"Some of the Seigaku players. And they're all blaming one person."
"Who are they blaming?" Sanada asked, wanting to join in the hating of this person.
"Oddly enough, Sadaharu." Yanagi frowned, wondering just exactly what his old friend had done, if he had actually done it. Of course, the message Yanagi had just gotten from him ('No time - running for my life - talk later!') made him sound pretty guilty. He checked his watch. "We need to get back to class."
Yukimura nodded, and turned to Sanada. "This is going to break your heart, but go home after school. Renji and I will come over after practice." Sanada nodded, understanding. They all stood up, Sanada pulling down the skirt he'd been forced into. Yukimura just smiled tolerantly. It couldn't be easy being something you weren't.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Seigaku's Fuji and Echizen have also been affected by this...unique event." Yanagi was saying as he and Yukimura joined Sanada. And try as he might, he just couldn't keep from staring at Sanada's chest now that it had been unbound and was freely bouncing around.
Yukimura frowned and hit Yanagi in the arm. "50 laps in the morning." Yanagi blinked.
"What did I do?" He asked.
"You're perving on Genichiro." Yukimura said. Yanagi sighed, and tried to get on with their business.
"As I was saying, Fuji and Echizen are also affected." Yanagi held out a printed off email. "This is the ingredient list for Sadaharu's latest disaster." He paused. "Along with a rather long apology, never mind it's not me he needs to be apologizing to." He pushed the paper over to Sanada who glared at it.
"I thought that stuff was nasty..." He said. "But..."
"Sadaharu has a tendency to use very...unique ingredients." Yanagi looked rather amused. Yukimura was reading the paper over Sanada's shoulder and was shaking his head, and expressing his own distaste for some of the ingredients. Yukimura looked up and stared at Yanagi.
"What do we do now? Wait this off?" Yukimura asked quietly. "I need my vice-captain."
"I'm sure Renji is perfectly able to take my place." Sanada said, feeling oddly resigned to living like this for the rest of his life.
"I didn't want it before, and I still don't." Yanagi said. "Don't think we can't fix this." He pulled out his cell phone and dialed an old number. "When in doubt, ask the source." He said, smiling a little.
Sanada was trying not to have a nervous breakdown. Yukimura noticed this, but did nothing, as much as he thought he should be doing something. But it was still Sanada. Sanada Genichiro did not have nervous breakdowns.
They both looked up as Yanagi closed his phone. "Good news or bad news?" He asked.
"Bad first, please." Sanada said. He didn't think there could be much more bad news in store for him.
"The bad news is Sadaharu isn't sure if it will wear off, but he thinks it should by Friday or Saturday. The good news is, Fuji-san isn't happy about this and is threatening Sadaharu to come up with something to change them all back before then. He says if it works on Fuji and Echizen, he'll pass it on to me for you." Yanagi said, hoping that all made sense.
"We have a competition on Saturday." Yukimura frowned. "We need Genichiro back before then so he can at least make a couple practices this week. Even if he does change back on Saturday, I still can't put him in."
Sanada nodded. It was the rule. "We need a cure by Wednesday then."
~Friday~
Wednesday came and went without any cures being passed along to Yanagi. Yukimura was frustrated and mad beyond belief. Everyone was avoiding him. Everyone except Sanada, who had more reason to be upset as he was still female, and therefore shouldn't have even been at practice. Yanagi had quickly adapted to the moods that their captain and vice-captain were in lately, trying to keep himself from either of them when they were extra upset and definitely trying to keep himself from watching Sanada's chest.
Sanada had waited for his friends on Friday afternoon, glaring at the people who gave him odd looks despite his having looked this way for the past week. Maybe it was the fact that he was forced to be wearing a skirt. He really did look awkward in the girl's uniform, despite the fact that between his two male best friends and his mother finding out and insisting that he wear proper undergarments. That was an ordeal Sanada would prefer to forget as well.
As usual, Yukimura and Yanagi were the last two out of the club room.
"Genichiro, I still haven't heard anything." Yanagi said as they joined up with him. "The reports from Sadaharu have not been very reassuring, honestly."
Sanada just glared, not happy to hear that news.
Yukimura sighed a little. "I hate being short a player." He said quietly.
"We'll still win." Sanada said, not only to reassure but because he felt it was true.
The three just walked on in silence. Though that silence was broken soon. "You know, the cheerleading squad is going to our match as well..." Yanagi said. That stopped Sanada in his tracks, and about falling over if it hadn't been for Yukimura grabbing his arm and keeping Sanada from falling over and more than likely exposing himself. Who knew how many other perverts were around other than Yanagi.
"Renji..." Yukimura trailed off.
"I only mentioned it because it is technically a school sponsored 'sport' and since they are going to cheer on the tennis club..." He paused to see if Yukimura was catching on. "I'm still running another 50 laps, aren't I?"
Yukimura nodded. "I think I get what you're after though. And yes, you are. Though I'm thinking you're enjoying running those laps way too much since you seem to keep making these comments that are making me wonder if you have a bit of a crush on our Gen-chan." Yukimura looked way too pleased with himself as Yanagi blushed a little.
"Not...entirely."
"Renji. No. Not in a million years." Sanada said, trying not to blush himself. "I fully intend on being male again, and...no." Then he glared directly at Yanagi. "Besides, perhaps if you want a date you should try asking and not acting like a complete pervert." He thought about it. "And no, I'm not joining the cheerleaders."
"It was just a suggestion." Yanagi said, turning at a corner to head for his own home. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Some suggestion." Sanada muttered. "I don't even like wearing the school uniform, and he wants me to wear a dress?!"
"I'm sure Renji didn't mean anything by it." Yukimura said, trying to believe that Yanagi's intentions were somewhat honorable and not as perverted as he thought. Oh, who was he kidding. Yukimura wanted a piece of that too, but he was too focused on other things. Things like tennis, which is what they all were supposed to be focused on. That didn't mean at night his body wouldn't think of things do with those breasts. Yukimura eyed Sanada up and down. Oh, what he could do with all of that.
"Seiichi. Stop it. It's bad enough Renji looks at me like that." Sanada said, trying to remember that these two were his friends and they were trying to help. He was wondering if they couldn't try harder though.
Yukimura shook his head and blushed. "I'm sorry, Genichiro." Yukimura patted the boy-turned-girl's shoulder. "I'll see you tomorrow. Yes, I expect you to be there." He said, turning to head to his own home.
Sanada just shook his head and headed to his own home. Life couldn't be much worse right now.
"Gen-chan!" Sanada's mother called as he walked in. Sanada bristled at the nickname. It was bad enough Yukimura called him that occasionally since the switch, but his mother as well? He sighed and went to join his mother in the kitchen. "Oh, good." She smiled and gestured for her now daughter to take a seat.
"What is it, Mother?" He asked. He had things he could be doing, and he wanted out of the skirt.
"I was just wondering if you were considering perhaps dating either of those friends of yours. They're such nice boys, and either of them would make such wonderful husbands..." She trailed off.
Genichiro stormed off to his room, freaked. Didn't his mother believe she'd have her son back eventually? And the fact that she thought that Renji or Seiichi would be a good husband?! He was wrong. Life could be much worse. Damn that Inui. Damn that party. He was even cursing Yanagi occasionally as he finally started breaking down, curling up into a ball on the floor, forgetting about just about everything, even how much he hated the skirt he was wearing.
Genichiro heard his phone start ringing and lifted his head to look at it from where he sat. Couldn't he have a breakdown in peace? He crawled over to his desk where it sat and grabbed it. He looked at it to see who was calling and frowned a little. He wasn't really in the mood to talk to Yanagi, especially after their conversation after school. He was glad when it quit ringing. However it beeped with a text message a few minutes later.
Gen -
6:30 meet at train station. Going to Tokyo. Tell you why later
-Renji
Genichiro just rolled his eyes, and got up and changed into some pants at least. Why couldn't the girl's uniforms have pants instead of a skirt. He also shed the sweater and got rid of the tie. That was much better for the moment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was just barely before 6:30 when Yanagi came up to Sanada at the station. "I'm glad to see you came." Yanagi said as he pulled the girl along with him.
"Renji, why?" Sanada finally asked once they were settled on the train, and he was calm enough to glare at his friend. "You did say you'd explain."
"I did, didn't I?" Yanagi paused for a moment, letting a bit of tension build up. Sanada was getting pissed the longer Yanagi let the silence drag on. "I'll give you two reasons. First, I may have taken your advice in my own way." Sanada coughed, resisting the urge to smack Yanagi across the face. "Second, Fuji and Echizen are back to normal, and Sadaharu thinks that any subsequent batches of the antidote might not be as potent as the first batch, and there's just enough left."
Well, the second reason was a damned good one. Sanada glared a bit harder at Yanagi. "So this is a date?"
"Not really. Especially considering that once you're back to yourself...Well, honestly, you'd give me worse than Seiichi has been during practice."
"You've deserved every lap, Renji." Sanada said, smiling a little.
"Actually I haven't. Seiichi has been...'fantasizing' about you in the showers at school." Yanagi said, smiling a little as Sanada blushed. "He doesn't think anyone knows though. It was rather hard to miss his screaming out "Gen-chan" as he came though." Okay, Sanada was a tomato now.
"Renji!" He barked, not really wanting or needing to know that. Sanada tried to blend in with the scenery, but was failing miserably. Yanagi wrapped his arm around Sanada and just hugged him with that one arm.
"It's alright. Despite how perverted we may seem recently, it's only because...Well, I don't think any of us has really dealt with the issue of girls before. We're all too focused on tennis and school to even be looking at girls, and then one of our leaders suddenly switches sex on us...It was a bit too much to hope for, honestly. And Monday, when you came into practice, and Niou said what he did, I can tell you that most of us were thinking the same thing but we were just too polite to say it." Yanagi took a breath.
Sanada just sighed, and shifted a little in his seat. "It's not like I wanted this to happen."
"Sadaharu had some...rather interesting information he gave me." Yanagi said quietly. "Apparently Fuji and Echizen were...How should I put this...They were intimate with certain people before they switched as well."
Sanada gulped a little. Does this mean that Yanagi knew more than he was letting on. "Really?" Sanada said, attempting to keep his voice neutral.
"I won't tell, but I want to know. Did you?"
Sanada just sighed and nodded. Yanagi just raised an eyebrow. "Atobe, of all people. Actually," And Sanada went even redder at this. "It was a threesome with Fuji as well."
"I never thought you'd be that kind of person, Genichiro."
"Which became an orgy with Tezuka and Echizen joining us."
Yanagi coughed to clear his throat. There was so much that people could hide from their friends. "So we wouldn't have had a chance anyway?""
"I never said I liked any of them." Sanada said getting up as they approached the stop. Yanagi rose as well, feeling, well, rather protective.
"Sadaharu said it was the bottoms that were affected." Sanada froze once he was off the train.
"You breathe a word of this to anyone, Renji, and I'll make sure you'll be living the rest of your life as a girl." Sanada threatened.
Yanagi silently thanked Inui for coming up with the antidote this soon because he didn't think anyone could deal with a PMSing Sanada. "I understand." Was all Yanagi said before leading Sanada down some familiar streets.
They walked in silence for a while. "Renji?" Sanada asked, realizing he may not be having the brightest idea in the world at the moment, but he did feel sorry for his friend.
"What is it, Genichiro?" Yanagi stopped and turned to face him.
"Do you remember that children's fairy tale, Cinderella?"
Yanagi smiled. "Planning on losing a glass slipper?"
Sanada laughed. "Not exactly. How late do you think your friend will be up?"
"Late. But I think we should be there before 10." Yanagi offered Sanada his arm. "What would hime-sama like to do first."
"Dinner at least. I had to skip dinner at home to meet you." Sanada said as he took Yanagi's arm, the two looking very much like they were on an actual date. They slipped into the first place they saw, and just talked politely as if there was nothing wrong or weird about this. And really, there wasn't.
Once their stomachs were full, Yanagi led them down the street and to a high rise apartment building. They walked their way to apartment 522. "The ball has come to an end, Cinderella." Yanagi said, smiling a little, leaning in and kissing one of his best friends.
Sanada was shocked to say the least, and was still speechless when the door opened without either him or Yanagi having knocking.
"I had good odds on this." Inui said. Yanagi pulled back, coughing a little, and trying not to blush. Sanada didn't even try not to, but he was thankful for his trusty cap. Inui just grinned and pulled both of them inside, then went to get the antidote.
Sanada glared at Yanagi. "No one is ever going to find out." Yanagi nodded.
"Of course not." Yanagi agreed as Inui came back with a rather murky looking liquid. Sanada looked at him and glared.
"It works. Ask Fuji."
Sanada just sighed, grabbed the glass, closed his eyes and drank. "Nasty." He said.
"You finally made something that doesn't knock people out? I'm amazed, Sadaharu." Yanagi asked, rather amused. "How long until it works."
"It took about six hours for it to work on Echizen, but it took almost twice as long for Fuji." Inui looked at Sanada. "It may be even longer for you." Inui turned to Yanagi. "That's why I wanted him to have the last of the first batch. Hopefully, it will work."
"We're all hoping that." Yanagi said. "We should be going home before the trains stop running. I'll email you with the results." He promised Inui and turned himself and Sanada towards the door.
~Saturday~
"Renji, where's Genichiro?" Yukimura asked, scanning the crowd. "I thought I told him to be here regardless."
"He caught a rather nasty bug last night, and he's extremely sick." Yanagi said, calmly watching as Niou and Yagyuu destroyed their opponents. "Don't worry, so much, Seiichi."
"Only because I trust you, Renji."
~Monday~
After another rather embarrassing visit to the school's nurse who made sure that things were back to what was exactly written in Sanada-kun's file, Sanada strode on to the practice courts looking...very awake, and rather pissy, but he didn't have two watermelons hanging from his chest now.
Kirihara 'eep'ed a little, and went far, far away. Marui and Jackal just followed Kirihara, mostly in the name of protecting the brat.
Yukimura strode up to Sanada. "Good to see you back to normal." He said quietly. Sanada just adjusted his hat and tried to forget what Yanagi had told him on Friday night. He just nodded, then he caught sight of the two that had pissed him off the most the last week.
"Niou! Yanagi! Start running NOW!" Sanada yelled at them. Yanagi bristled a little at the use of his surname, but didn't question the order. Niou on the other hand...
"What did I do?" Niou asked Yanagi as he jogged along side him.
"Don't ever tell a girl the obvious." Yanagi said, and sprinted ahead.
It was good to have things back to normal.
