Summary : Kuroko's Go brings all the boys- oops… the Go players to his yard… or rather Kagami's yard.
When Kagami found an old, blood stained goban on the way to his home from the school, he never expected that this would happen.
And now, here he was, stuck with a silent, teal haired, nearly invisible ghost who loved to give him heart-attack.
The said ghost apparently also liked to nag him into playing Go.
And no, not once or twice, but every time.
It's not that he mind playing Go - as soon as he understand how to play it he became addicted too, though he always lost as strategic game was not his stuff - but his life was not entirely centered to playing Go, playing Go, and playing Go. He also had to go to school, doing his extracurricular (Basketball, damn it! He almost cried river as he was practically married to his beloved ball and could not playing with it. And no, not that ball, you pervert!), and so forth.
But the most troublesome was, the Go which Kuroko played -Kuroko, that was the ghost's name- brought all the Go freaks to the yard.
And who were they after?
Him.
Him, Kagami Taiga. The extraordinary basketball idiot.
Of course they were after him! They could not see Kuroko, so they thought that the play was his.
And they desperately chased him to the point he could not even take a leak in peace.
Fuckers.
And so, he went low profile. But after many days they did not play Go, at least not against other opponents beside each other, and Kuroko's depression made him sick -to the point he could not eat- he giving up to not play with other players.
Either the God heard his pray or something, but a few days later he found a what he call a godsend when he surfed the internet. He found a site called NetGo, a site where someone could playing Go with others without facing in person.
And oh, look, how ecstatic Kuroko was. Though his face or demeanor neither said so. Robot face bastard.
So, with username 'Kuro', they played and played every night, whenever Kagami's basketball coach did not drill him until he could not move. They were challenged someone, at first. Again, again, and over again. And after thirty games Kuroko won them without any loss, there were a surge of challenges flooded the screen - Kagami was sure that Kuroko would dancing in happiness if he could, but alas his stoicism prevented him. They accepted every challenge that came to them, and they never lose to anyone to the point Kuroko became a legend between the Go players. He even had a nickname from them; The Phantom of NetGo. Kagami teased him for that lame nickname, and ended up with a very painful jab on the stomach by the teal haired. The life was more easier after that, Kagami could doing his beloved basketball activities without any -annoying- interruption and did not have to cut his allowance for budget to visit Go Salons anymore, and Kuroko still could play Go as he wished with many good players.
That's it, until a player with username 'RedKing' came.
It was beautiful, the game between Kuroko and this RedKing. Even Kagami, who was an amateur, could see how magnificent it was. The style, the movement, it's like a fated game. Kagami was sure other people who watched it also think so.
It's unfortunate that the game was stopped unfinished. Initially, Kagami thought the RedKing was just thinking about the next move, but then a message appeared on the screen that made his eyes bulged in surprise.
"I know this play. Tetsuya, is that you?"
The silence was uncomfortable and piercing. Kagami was about to confront the ghost about the question, about why the RedKing knew his name, especially his first name, but when Kagami saw Kuroko's eyes, he clammed up, unable to voice whatever he was going to ask him. Those sky blue eyes were dull, pained and sorrowful, and Kagami did not know what to do.
It did not help that Kuroko fell into desolation after that.
Kagami tried everything, he had tried, but the distress still shadowing his ghost. He let him played in NetGo as long as he wishes, he even took absent from basketball practice so that he could brought him to Go Salon, only to saw it did not lift his spirit at all.
He groaned aloud at the thought that Kuroko would depressed for a looooooong time and making him too sick to play basketball. Don't get him wrong, he was very worried about him. And because of that, he did not want to sit around and doing nothing as it will make him more worry. But how could he do something if whenever Kuroko was being all sad and stuff made him sick, moreover playing basketball? He missed his beloved ball!
And so, when a soft, small voice was heard after long, long weeks, it felt like water for him.
"Let's play, Kagami-kun."
Thus, he sat in front of goban with a relief sigh, and a bit irritated of course.
