Chap-1 / Chap-2 / Chap-3 / Chap-4 / Chap-5 / Chap-6 / Chap-7 / Chap-8
Game 1: Korokoro Viking
"Next up is Arashi Team!"
The voice from above announced. The audience cheered as all the members posed in front of the camera.
Ohno was in carrier that was strapped to Aiba. The carrier was adjusted so Ohno was facing away from Aiba, easily letting the baby see what was going on. The members agreed that they would take turns carrying Ohno. They used the carrier in order to make it easier for them to have their arms and hands free to move around.
"So, Sakurai-kun, your kouhai did really well on this game." The voice from above commented. Hey!Say!JUMP had played first. There were two members on the pink section, two on the green section and four on the orange section. The remaining member- it had been Yabu- stood in the front, giving his members directions on where to move the ball through.
In the beginning, the first two balls were dropped in the pink zone (which was being manned by Hikaru and Keito). After the game, Hikaru immediately directed the blame to Keito and Keito received a hard slap on the head when he replied in english, "Sorry, Hikaru."
But luckily they got the golden ball and the last blue ball into the fifty point slot. Then a miracle happened. The members somehow were able to get most of the little yellows balls into the high scoring slots. Thanks to that, their final score totaled to 375 points- the highest score for that game so far.
Sho nodded as he replied, "They did. It's impressive that they managed to get so many points with the little yellow balls. It's the first time we've seen that." The audience clapped as their kouhais smiled, flushing happily at the praise.
"Do you think you can beat their score, Ninomiya-kun?" The voice from above asked.
Nino chuckled humorlessly, shaking his head, "Wait a minute, before asking us if we can beat their score, I'm more worried about something else."
"Eh? What's wrong?" The voice from above sounded surprised.
"Isn't it strange that I'm the only one in charge of the orange section?" Nino pointed out, looking displeased by the set up.
Jun and Himura was in charge of the pink section, Aiba, Ohno and Sho were in charge of the green zone. This left Nino being the only one in charge of the orange zone.
"It can't be helped since Satoshi isn't old enough to move the bars by himself." Aiba told him, gently whispering to Ohno to keep still as the baby tried to reach for one of the bars.
Nino pouted. "It's not fair that JUMP has too many members and we don't have enough."
"Senpai." Yamada spoke up. "We'll gladly lend Inoo or Keito to help you." He offered.
Nino had a horrified look on his face as he quickly shook his head. "Never mind. I'm fine playing alone." Nino looked away, his arm hiding his laughter as he could hear both boys protesting, sounding insulted.
"I know! I remembered that we had this problem before." Aiba reminded them. "Why doesn't Sho just play both the green and the orange sections?"
Sho turned pale at that suggestion. "Wait a minute. I don't think I could do it. I'm not even good at this game when I'm only in charge of one zone. Two zones are impossible for me!" He pointed out desperately.
Nino pondered for a moment before grinning, "Why doesn't J do it then? Just switch places with Sho. I'm sure he'll be able to do it."
Jun looked surprised for a second before smirking, fire burning in his eyes. "Fine, bring it on!" He agreed enthusiastically.
When Jun and Sho switched, Aiba hummed, "This is good. Also, I was also a bit worried with Jun and Himura playing together on the same zone."
Himura nodded his head, "I was completely worried about that. I don't think me and Matsujun work well together."
Jun rolled his eyes. "It's cause I don't work well with moles."
"I'm Pegasus! You're the mole, Mogujun!" Himura yelled, reminding them all of the last time he was on the show.
Before Jun could retort back, the voice from above cut in, "Satoshi-kun?"
Ohno froze, looking around with curious eyes. The audience giggled, looking at the cute confused expression on his face.
"He's hiding Satoshi. Just say hi to him." Aiba encouraged the baby.
Ohno smiled as he shouted happily, "HI!" Everyone cooed at his tiny voice.
The voice from above chuckled before asking, "So Satoshi-kun, are you feeling nervous?"
Ohno thought about it for a moment before shyly answering, "A wittle." The audience squealed at his bashfulness.
"Do you think you can beat Hey!Say!JUMP?" The voice from above continued to inquire.
Ohno nodded widely as he put his arms up, "We win!"
Everyone clapped, cheering for Ohno. The Arashi team laughed as they saw the baby bouncing happily in his carrier. With their team pumped up, the game began.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 2: Rolling Coin Tower
"This is really bad." Sho commented, as he played with the coins in his hands.
"We're definitely losing." Aiba agreed, giving Ohno a five point coin to play with.
"What the hell were you two doing?" Himura scolded as he looked at Nino and Jun, who slowly looked away.
"Waaah~ this isn't the kind of Arashi we wanted to see today." Yuto said, leaning against the railing.
Nino immediately pointed his finger to Jun. "Its all J's fault!" He blamed venomously.
Jun gave him an incredulous look. "Excuse me? I was in charge of two zones. It's YOUR fault for not waiting for me to properly grab onto the handles before just shifting the ball into the zones on your own."
Unfortunately, Arashi managed to get three balls (including the golden ball) into the minus 30 zone. Even with scoring high points with the remaining balls, their final score ended up with a measly 5 points. This made Hey!Say!JUMP ahead by 370 points.
"If we lose this game, you're definitely being dropped tonight." Jun threatened.
Nino narrowed his eyes at Jun. "I'll make sure to bring you down with me." As they both glared at each other, Sho started a conversation with the guest team.
"So do you guys have any strategies with this game?" Sho asked them.
As Arioka answered, Sho couldn't help but notice as Ohno (who was still in the carrier that was attached to Aiba) pulled on Himura's hair.
"Owww!" Himura screeched as Ohno laughed happily, pulling on the strand of hair that was clutched tightly in his tiny fist.
"Aw...I think Satoshi likes you." Aiba cooed, smiling widely at the adorable glee that was on the baby's face.
"Arghh...Get this demon off me!" Himura growled, rubbing his aching head that he got from all the pulling. "I think I have a bald spot."
"Is being bald really a bad thing for you?" Nino muttered, snickering as Himura sent a glare at him.
Himura huffed. "I bet you guys taught him to pick on me."
All the Arashi members looked at him with innocent faces. "What, us? We would never do that." Sho replied lightly.
"We're trying to be very good role models for him, you know." Jun told him, pretending to sound upset at the accusation. Himura of course never fell for their crap and continued to scowl at them.
The game began. Arashi team decided that they had to go on an all-out attack for this game in order to win as many points as possible. They each placed only 10-point coins on the tower and put them in misalignment, making the tower very wobbly during just the second round.
At the start of the fourth round was when things went awry. The tower headed towards Aiba and Ohno. Ohno had his 5 point coin in his hand. During the game, Aiba had to carefully block Ohno from touching the tower. But this time, he was too slow to stop the teeny hand that reached out and slammed the orange coin onto the tower.
Screams filled the studio as the tower fell down.
"The tower goes down! It's Satoshi who toppled down the tower." The voice from above spoke loudly. "The bonus fifty points go to Hey!Say!JUMP!"
Aiba and Ohno were shell-shocked as their fellow team members groaned. They were even farther behind now as the total of scores so far were HSJ: 625 points and Arashi: 185 points.
Ohno looked around and saw the disappointed looks on his team's face. He didn't mean to make the tower fall- he just wanted to play too. Ohno's face crumpled as he his eyes filled with tears.
Nino was the first to notice Ohno and immediately went to him, taking him out of the baby carrier and holding him up, gently patting his on the back. "Shhh...it's okay. Don't cry." Nino cradled Ohno's head as the baby cried into his shoulder.
"I s-sowwy." Ohno apologized tearfully, quiet sobs coming out of him.
Nino shook his head as the rest of his team and even the guest team huddled around them. "We're not mad at you. It was an honest mistake." There were voices from the audience who spoke out, agreeing that it was only an accident and Satoshi wasn't at fault.
"B-but I make da tower fall." Ohno cried softly, looking up at everyone.
Aiba stepped forward, wiping the tears off his cheeks. "We both made the tower fall, ne? We're in this together." Aiba assured him, hoping his smile would cheer him up.
"It's alright, Satoshi-kun." Inoo spoke, Ohno's attention went to him. "You can blame it all on Chinen here." He offered, pointing at his youngest member. It had been Chinen who had placed the coins right before Ohno.
Chinen looked shocked for a second before looking at Ohno. Seeing the tears that were still falling down the chubby cheeks, Chinen sighed as his eyes turned gentle. "Yup. It was because I placed my coins down strangely. It's all my fault, not yours. Promise."
Ohno stopped crying as Nino gave a small smile at Chinen. Yes, Chinen had never been his favorite kouhai- he hated how the young man's eyes would sparkle at the mere mention of his boyfriend (and yes, Nino knew that Chinen only looked at Ohno with fangirl eyes and not real love, but it still pissed Nino off)- but at this moment, Nino had to admit that Chinen was a pretty okay guy.
As Ohno stopped crying, they all knew that the baby was still sad at making the tower tall. Himura felt bad for him and even though he had called the baby a demon earlier, he decided to help cheer him up now.
"Satoshi, look here." Himura called to him. As soon as he got his attention, Himura did his gag with making a very ugly face and mumbling like an idiot.
Ohno immediately started laughing, his tears disappearing. And with Ohno's cheerful giggles filling the studio, it made everyone feel relieved and happy once again.
"Funny!" Ohno giggled some more, pointing at Himura.
Himura grinned back at him as he reached out to pat the baby on the head. "And you're not such a demon after all." He conceded, chuckling at the now very energetic baby.
And at that moment, Himura became more favorable to the public and gained more fans.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 3: GoGo Sweeper
"So Arashi team, you're now behind by 440 points." The voice from above informed them.
Nino rolled his eyes. "Yeah, you don't need to tell us. We already know that we're losing." He muttered, hugging Ohno who was attached to him now.
The third game was GoGO Sweeper. But since the producer informed them that due to all the scenes they filmed and the time limit, they would only be playing for one round. Yabu and Takaki were playing from Hey!Say!JUMP while Nino, Ohno and Himura were playing from Arashi.
"Are you sure it's safe for Satoshi to be in there?" Sho asked, looking worried. He had been voicing his concerns as they set up the set. He didn't think a baby would be safe in the mini cars.
"The staff said that it's perfectly okay for him to be here, just as long as he stays in his carrier." Nino assured him, waving at him with Ohno's small arm. The audience squealed at the adorable gesture.
"Yeah. And the opponents of course will not play too roughly down there." Jun added, sending a threatening glare at the two JUMP members.
"Don't worry senpai." Jun looked at Arioka who spoke up. "Yabu here is known for driving very slowly and carefully like a grandpa. And Yuya here is actually pretty terrified to bump into his senpai." Arioka assured.
"That's right." Yabu agreed with Takaki also nodding. While this conversation went on, there was suddenly a shot showing Himura frowning deeply.
"Eh? Himura-san, what's wrong?" The voice from above asked.
Himura's frown deepened. "I'm not sure if the rest of the members know this, but Satoshi has been calling me, 'Banana' since the beginning of the show." He answered, looking displeased.
Nino gave him a blank look. "So what?"
Himura huffed at the indifference in Nino's tone. "Banana isn't my name!"
"Eh? Really?" Sho asked, looking shocked.
"All this time we've been wrong?" Aiba added, his jaw dropping.
"No, no, no. You're both being strange!" Himura accused, narrowing his eyes at them.
"Yeah. It's more like a coconut," Jim corrected them, putting his hands up and making a round motion around his head.
"Stop making fun of my hair! I'm a human being, not a fruit!" Himura argued, pounding at the car.
"Okay, let's start the game!" Nino said gleefully, starting his car for the first lap.
"Hey!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 4: Pinball Runner
Although Arashi had played well in GoGo Sweeper, they were still not able to beat Hey!Say!JUMP and now the scores so far are HSJ: 940 and Arashi: 475. The gap had widen once more with 465 points between them.
"Is there even a chance to win anymore?" Jun demanded as he held onto the basket. He was chosen as the runner while the rest of the team were on the commander's platform.
"Yes, it is still possible." The voice from above confirmed. "But Arashi team is really gonna have to do their best in the remaining games."
Sho shook his head at that. "I'm not sure if the audience have noticed, but we HAVE been trying very hard since the first game." The audience laughed at his frustration.
"So who's going to say what?" Jun questioned, facing them.
"Me and Nino will be calling out for the yellow ones. I get the first half and then when the first pink ball falls, we will switch." Aiba explained. "The pink balls will go to Sho and Satoshi."
"I'll call the first pink ball and Satoshi will get the second one." Sho continued, hugging the baby close to him. The carrier was attached to Sho now.
"Huh? What about me?" Himura asked, frowning at all of them.
"Just stand there and stay out of the way." Sho suggested.
"Hey!" Himura shouted as Jun nodded, saying that it was a good plan.
"But does Satoshi know the numbers?" Jun asked, looking at the boy worriedly.
"Twust me, JuJu!" Ohno yelled out happily, giving Jun a cute thumbs up. Everyone in the studio laughed and cooed at how adorable Ohno was. Jun gave into the grin that was breaking out on his face and started to face forward.
Everything was going well as Jun managed to catch a lot of yellow balls and even the first pink ball went into the basket. But the truth was, Ohno didn't know how to read or even how to count to ten.
When the second pink ball dropped down, Sho immediately held Ohno up to the mike. Ohno began yelling out the number five, because it was his favorite number. All the members panicked as the ball was headed towards 8-9 but they didn't want to pull the baby away from the mic since Ohno seemed to be having fun.
And then a miracle happened.
The ball suddenly hit into one of the moving pins and everyone looked astonished as it fell directly from the number five spot and right into Jun's basket.
"This baby has powers, I tell you." Himura commented in awe. The game had ended and they had won 200 points.
"Satoshi is amazing!" Aiba announced proudly, giving a kiss on the giggling baby's cheek (of course, the audience screamed loudly at that).
"That was so cool!" The Hey!Say!JUMP members were also impressed.
"Good job, Satoshi!" Jun winked at the baby, giving him a thumbs up.
Ohno was grinning widely as he also held up his thumb. "Yup!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 5: Bank Bowling
"I'm starting to see the light." Sho said cheerfully.
Hey!Say!JUMP only managed fifty points from the last game. Chinen, who was the runner, ended up having to catch the balls by himself since the members on the platform kept yelling out too many different numbers at once, making Chinen confused. So the score now was HSJ: 990 and Arashi: 675. They were separated by 315 points.
"And it's all thanks to Satoshi." Nino pointed out smugly, tickling the baby who was attached to him once more. For the first round, the ones playing were Nino, Ohno and Aiba.
"So Satoshi, how many pins do you want to hit?" The voice from above asked.
Ohno still tended to look up, trying to find the mysterious voice, before answering. "All a dem!" The audience and his team clapped, rooting for him. Even Hey!Say!JUMP was cheering for baby Ohno.
"I have a good feeling about today." Nino confessed, grabbing a blue bowling ball.
"I think we can make a strike happen." Aiba said confidently, holding up his green bowling ball.
"We have Satoshi here after all." Sho explained, gesturing towards the baby. The voice from above told them that it would be the first time in the show's history to get a strike. Even the Hey!Say!JUMP members were getting excited by this.
Jun nodded. "Let's do it!"
The chants filled the studio. Nino and Aiba exchanged a nod at each other as they looked directly forward. Taking a deep breath, Nino released his ball first, with Aiba coming right behind him.
Everyone was quiet as the balls rolled. There was suddenly screaming and awing as the balls collided with each other. Nino yelled in shock as Aiba groaned sliding down.
Aiba green ball hit the entire left side, taking it all out. As Nino's ball rolled back down, it had aimed at the right side of the triangle. Suddenly, the entire set was filled with screaming (for a whole different reason now) and stomping as Nino's ball- although missing the center- had caused a domino effect.
Nino and Aiba's jaws dropped and they shouted as the pins in the middle fell backward, taking out out the entire center of the triangle- including the red pin. Aiba's pin had destroyed the entire left side while Nino's ball had wiped out the entire right side and also caused a reaction that took out the middle.
There were no more pins left standing.
"YATTA!!!" Aiba and Nino yelled out, the cheers around them were deafening. The rest of their team shot out of their seats and joined them, giving them hugs and jumping up and down in celebration. Even Hey!Say!JUMP was cheering for them, smiling happily and laughing ecstatically.
"Arashi team has done it! For the first time in this show's history, we have a strike! All the pins were worth 250 points, and including the bonus of getting a strike Arashi team has won a total of 350 points!" The voice from above announced, his voice filled with obvious joy.
Everyone was cheering, still trying to process that a strike was finally achieved. When everyone calmed down, the voice from above asked them, "Ninomiya-kun? How does it feel getting a strike for the very first time?"
Nino was grinning widely as he answered, "It's amazing. I can't believe we did it. Even though we weren't the first ones to get a spare, getting this strike is totally a higher accomplishment." Nino took a breath as he cuddled to the baby on his chest. "And I obviously didn't do this alone. Without Aiba and especially Satoshi here, we would have never gotten the strike." He said, looking at them proudly. "In fact, without Arashi and everyone in the audience and even our kouhai here...I just..." Nino shook his head. "I'm just so freaking happy right now!"
Aiba grinned even wider, trying to hold back tears as he hugged Nino and Ohno. Jun, Sho and even Himura joined in too. "We did it!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 6: Cliff Climbing
"Next up is Arashi team!"
Jun and Sho posed in front of the cameras as they were the ones chosen to be the next climbers.
After their strike in the last game, the pins were reset for the next round. Everyone would agree that since Arashi was behind, it would be the best opportunity for them to hit more pins and get even more points.
But unfortunately, it was found out that Sho and Himura (the next bowlers) didn't exactly work well. Both of their balls ended up colliding with the other with Himura's ball veering to the left, not hitting even a single pin while Sho's ball stopped about two inches away from the red ball.
Jun commented that their turn would most likely be narrated.
But Arashi's good fortune continued as Hey!Say!JUMP didn't score a lot of points on their turns. The pairs were Yuto with Arioka and Inoo with Keito. Altogether they got 110 points. The scores after the fifth game was HSJ: 1100 points and Arashi: 1025. Arashi had definitely rebounded and we're just 75 points away.
Hey!Say!JUMP were the ones who went first. Their climbers were Yamada and Hikaru. The group said that they were confident that these two would be able to climb the fastest. Hikaru had experience with this game and Yamada was the strongest in terms of strength in their group.
Nino and Jun tried to psych out Yamada, knowing that he had a fear of heights, but Yamada was able to brush off their taunts and together with Hikaru, the both of them reached the top and pressed all the buttons with 11 seconds remaining. Their score was 333 points, making their overall score so far to be 1433 points.
Now it was Arashi's turn and even the audience let out their confusion when they saw that Sho was one of the climbers.
"Sakurai-kun! The audience is is making noises at you." Himura pointed out to him.
Sho shook his head, waving his finger at the camera. "It's okay. Because I completely feel the same way as them right now." As the audience laughed, Sho looked at his members, "I know that we're catching up with Hey!Say!JUMP, but is it a really good idea for me to be here?"
Aiba nodded at him. "Don't worry. We believe in you!" He assured his boyfriend cheerfully.
Nino smirked. "And it's not like we're letting you climb the chin. You're only taking on the finger."
Jun nodded, fixing his gloves. "Don't worry. We know that you can at least climb up the finger successfully. But please climb two sides, okay?"
Sho widened his eyes at that. "Seriously?!"
"You know, Sakurai-kun..." Himura started, pointing at him. "Exactly what have you been doing this whole episode.
Sho paused as he thought about it. "Well, I got us five points in Korokoro Viking, placed coins only once in Rolling Coin Tower, did nothing in GoGo Sweeper, called out only once in Pinball Runner, and got a gutter in Bank Bowling." Sho listed off from the top of his head. Looking back at his members, he nodded, "Please let me climb two sides and prove my usefulness on this team."
The audience cheered as his members just nodded, smirking politely at him.
"You can do it, Papa!" Ohno cheered loudly, raising his arms up wide and smiling.
"Yosh!" Sho raised his thumb up and winked at Ohno. The audience of course squealed and clapped more at this.
The game began and with encouragement from everybody, Sho quickly covered both sides of the cliff and conquered Odaiba's finger instantly. Since Jun was one of their fastest climbers, he just zoomed right up the cliff and press all the buttons. As soon as he pressed the 50 point button on top, Jun knew that they had gotten a high score.
Dropping to the floor, Jun began removing his gloves as the voice from above announced their score. "Pressing all the buttons and with 36 seconds left, making a bonus of an additional 108 points, Arashi's total for this game is 408 points. Adding to their total score...eh? Arashi managed to tie with Hey!SayJUMP with both teams having 1433 points each!"
Both teams were shocked with the results as the audience cheered louder than ever.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 7: Kicking Sniper (FINAL GAME)
"Who would have ever thought things would end up this way." Sho commented, a look of disbelief still on his face.
The final game was Kicking Sniper. Hey!Say!JUMP had gone first. Since there was nine members in their group, they were evenly divided into groups of three for the game. During their pre-talk, their kouhai showed how pumped up and ready they were to beat Arashi.
No one could have predicted the outcome that had happened.
Nino smirked, crossing his arms across his chest as he grinned smugly at his kouhai. "It's very rare for us to see a team hit nothing during this game." He snickered.
Unbelievably, Hey!Say!JUMP got a score of zero from the last game. About half of the members had just missed the target or had hit the target but it wasn't powerful enough to fall while that other half just kicked the ball in whatever direction that was completely far off from the targets.
"We're also still in shock that we didn't hit anything." Yabu agreed, still not processing what had happened.
Yuto groaned. "We're so screwed!"
"Do we even need to play now? We already know that we only have to hit one can in order to beat them." Nino pointed out, raising an eyebrow.
"But this episode has been so interesting so far- this would be a horrible ending!" Aiba complained, pouting his lips.
"Yeah, we should do something then." Jun started, a familiar burning starting in his eyes. Ohno, who was attached to him this time, looked up at Jun, cocking his head at the strange tone in Jun's voice.
Nino looked at Jun in horror. "Oh no. I know that look in his eyes. He's definitely gonna suggest something bad."
"Please just let it go, Daredevil Jun." Sho begged.
Jun smirked at them. "I promise that it'll make things interesting."
Sho shook his head as he pleaded, "This episode is interesting enough- let's just end this special peacefully.
Jun smiled as he looked up at them with an innocent expression on his face. "Wouldn't it be fine if we choose only three of us to play this game? And those three players have only ONE chance to knock down ONE can?" He suggested.
Nino and Sho groaned. Aiba and Himura looked completely confused and worried. "And Daredevil Jun strikes again~" Sho moaned, hiding his face in his hands.
"Urghhh...this is impossible!" Nino whined as he slid to the ground in defeat.
For the three players, it was chosen to be Jun (since it was his idea in the first place), Aiba (he had lost in janken) and Himura (the members forced him to play).
"Why do I have to be the last one to kick?" Himura complained. "This is too much pressure!"
"It's because you're the plus one so of course we should have you close out the show." Nino explained, smiling innocently at him.
As Himura kept complaining, Jun unattached the baby carrier and brought it and Ohno to Himura. "Here, I'll let you hold Satoshi this time. Maybe he'll give you good luck." Jun offered to him. "But you better be careful with him- don't fall or anything." He threatened.
Himura put on the carrier, carefully making sure that the baby was alright. "I'll need all the luck I can get." Himura muttered.
Ohno looked up at Himura and smiled. "Go Banana!" Himura was so nervous at that moment that he didn't even argue with the nickname and merely cracked a small smile at the baby.
Ohno at first was uncomfortable being carried by someone that wasn't his mama, papa, Kazu or JuJu, but he knew that Banana was a good guy so he decided to just deal with it for now (and at least he was still near the members).
"Due to the special change of rules, the three players will have only one chance to knock down the can. If they were to miss, the win will automatically go to Hey!Say!JUMP." The voice from above announced. "Before the last game starts, Satoshi? Do you have anything you want to say to your team?"
Ohno looked at all his members and smiled widely. "Gambatty!" Everyone cheered and clapped at the cute words of encouragement. The three members looked forward, getting ready to kick.
"Kicking Sniper, START!" At the words from the voice from above, the final game began. One lonesome can came out.
Jun was the first kicker. He kicked with all his might, but unfortunately his ball swerved to the left of the target.
Aiba was the second kicker. He gathered up all his strength as he kicked the ball hard. The ball had just missed the target, sailing right above.
Last kicker was Himura. He was completely horrified when he realized that the other two had missed and it was all up to him now.
He quickly rubbed the top of Ohno's head, like one would do with a deity, and he prayed that luck would be on his side as the can neared him.
Taking a deep breath, he wrapped one arm around Ohno- to secure the baby, making sure he wouldn't get harmed- and he kicked the ball with a booming shout of, "BANANA!" The ball flew through the air and grazed the right side of can, making it wobble dangerously. Everyone held their breaths.
The can fell.
"VS Arashi Winter Special, the winners are ARASHI TEAM!"

And as my gift to you, I shall post my longest chapter so far in this story ^_^ Here's Part 2 of VS Arashi....and since I wanna have fun on my birthday, this chapter is all about Arashi, HSJ, Baby Ohno and Bananaman playing games :D ENJOY~
Summary: An accident occurs when one of Aiba's experiments go wrong. And unfortunately, Leader was in the wrong place at the wrong time...
Chap-1 / Chap-2 / Chap-3 / Chap-4 / Chap-5 / Chap-6 / Chap-7 / Chap-8
Game 1: Korokoro Viking
"Next up is Arashi Team!"
The voice from above announced. The audience cheered as all the members posed in front of the camera.
Ohno was in carrier that was strapped to Aiba. The carrier was adjusted so Ohno was facing away from Aiba, easily letting the baby see what was going on. The members agreed that they would take turns carrying Ohno. They used the carrier in order to make it easier for them to have their arms and hands free to move around.
"So, Sakurai-kun, your kouhai did really well on this game." The voice from above commented. Hey!Say!JUMP had played first. There were two members on the pink section, two on the green section and four on the orange section. The remaining member- it had been Yabu- stood in the front, giving his members directions on where to move the ball through.
In the beginning, the first two balls were dropped in the pink zone (which was being manned by Hikaru and Keito). After the game, Hikaru immediately directed the blame to Keito and Keito received a hard slap on the head when he replied in english, "Sorry, Hikaru."
But luckily they got the golden ball and the last blue ball into the fifty point slot. Then a miracle happened. The members somehow were able to get most of the little yellows balls into the high scoring slots. Thanks to that, their final score totaled to 375 points- the highest score for that game so far.
Sho nodded as he replied, "They did. It's impressive that they managed to get so many points with the little yellow balls. It's the first time we've seen that." The audience clapped as their kouhais smiled, flushing happily at the praise.
"Do you think you can beat their score, Ninomiya-kun?" The voice from above asked.
Nino chuckled humorlessly, shaking his head, "Wait a minute, before asking us if we can beat their score, I'm more worried about something else."
"Eh? What's wrong?" The voice from above sounded surprised.
"Isn't it strange that I'm the only one in charge of the orange section?" Nino pointed out, looking displeased by the set up.
Jun and Himura was in charge of the pink section, Aiba, Ohno and Sho were in charge of the green zone. This left Nino being the only one in charge of the orange zone.
"It can't be helped since Satoshi isn't old enough to move the bars by himself." Aiba told him, gently whispering to Ohno to keep still as the baby tried to reach for one of the bars.
Nino pouted. "It's not fair that JUMP has too many members and we don't have enough."
"Senpai." Yamada spoke up. "We'll gladly lend Inoo or Keito to help you." He offered.
Nino had a horrified look on his face as he quickly shook his head. "Never mind. I'm fine playing alone." Nino looked away, his arm hiding his laughter as he could hear both boys protesting, sounding insulted.
"I know! I remembered that we had this problem before." Aiba reminded them. "Why doesn't Sho just play both the green and the orange sections?"
Sho turned pale at that suggestion. "Wait a minute. I don't think I could do it. I'm not even good at this game when I'm only in charge of one zone. Two zones are impossible for me!" He pointed out desperately.
Nino pondered for a moment before grinning, "Why doesn't J do it then? Just switch places with Sho. I'm sure he'll be able to do it."
Jun looked surprised for a second before smirking, fire burning in his eyes. "Fine, bring it on!" He agreed enthusiastically.
When Jun and Sho switched, Aiba hummed, "This is good. Also, I was also a bit worried with Jun and Himura playing together on the same zone."
Himura nodded his head, "I was completely worried about that. I don't think me and Matsujun work well together."
Jun rolled his eyes. "It's cause I don't work well with moles."
"I'm Pegasus! You're the mole, Mogujun!" Himura yelled, reminding them all of the last time he was on the show.
Before Jun could retort back, the voice from above cut in, "Satoshi-kun?"
Ohno froze, looking around with curious eyes. The audience giggled, looking at the cute confused expression on his face.
"He's hiding Satoshi. Just say hi to him." Aiba encouraged the baby.
Ohno smiled as he shouted happily, "HI!" Everyone cooed at his tiny voice.
The voice from above chuckled before asking, "So Satoshi-kun, are you feeling nervous?"
Ohno thought about it for a moment before shyly answering, "A wittle." The audience squealed at his bashfulness.
"Do you think you can beat Hey!Say!JUMP?" The voice from above continued to inquire.
Ohno nodded widely as he put his arms up, "We win!"
Everyone clapped, cheering for Ohno. The Arashi team laughed as they saw the baby bouncing happily in his carrier. With their team pumped up, the game began.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 2: Rolling Coin Tower
"This is really bad." Sho commented, as he played with the coins in his hands.
"We're definitely losing." Aiba agreed, giving Ohno a five point coin to play with.
"What the hell were you two doing?" Himura scolded as he looked at Nino and Jun, who slowly looked away.
"Waaah~ this isn't the kind of Arashi we wanted to see today." Yuto said, leaning against the railing.
Nino immediately pointed his finger to Jun. "Its all J's fault!" He blamed venomously.
Jun gave him an incredulous look. "Excuse me? I was in charge of two zones. It's YOUR fault for not waiting for me to properly grab onto the handles before just shifting the ball into the zones on your own."
Unfortunately, Arashi managed to get three balls (including the golden ball) into the minus 30 zone. Even with scoring high points with the remaining balls, their final score ended up with a measly 5 points. This made Hey!Say!JUMP ahead by 370 points.
"If we lose this game, you're definitely being dropped tonight." Jun threatened.
Nino narrowed his eyes at Jun. "I'll make sure to bring you down with me." As they both glared at each other, Sho started a conversation with the guest team.
"So do you guys have any strategies with this game?" Sho asked them.
As Arioka answered, Sho couldn't help but notice as Ohno (who was still in the carrier that was attached to Aiba) pulled on Himura's hair.
"Owww!" Himura screeched as Ohno laughed happily, pulling on the strand of hair that was clutched tightly in his tiny fist.
"Aw...I think Satoshi likes you." Aiba cooed, smiling widely at the adorable glee that was on the baby's face.
"Arghh...Get this demon off me!" Himura growled, rubbing his aching head that he got from all the pulling. "I think I have a bald spot."
"Is being bald really a bad thing for you?" Nino muttered, snickering as Himura sent a glare at him.
Himura huffed. "I bet you guys taught him to pick on me."
All the Arashi members looked at him with innocent faces. "What, us? We would never do that." Sho replied lightly.
"We're trying to be very good role models for him, you know." Jun told him, pretending to sound upset at the accusation. Himura of course never fell for their crap and continued to scowl at them.
The game began. Arashi team decided that they had to go on an all-out attack for this game in order to win as many points as possible. They each placed only 10-point coins on the tower and put them in misalignment, making the tower very wobbly during just the second round.
At the start of the fourth round was when things went awry. The tower headed towards Aiba and Ohno. Ohno had his 5 point coin in his hand. During the game, Aiba had to carefully block Ohno from touching the tower. But this time, he was too slow to stop the teeny hand that reached out and slammed the orange coin onto the tower.
Screams filled the studio as the tower fell down.
"The tower goes down! It's Satoshi who toppled down the tower." The voice from above spoke loudly. "The bonus fifty points go to Hey!Say!JUMP!"
Aiba and Ohno were shell-shocked as their fellow team members groaned. They were even farther behind now as the total of scores so far were HSJ: 625 points and Arashi: 185 points.
Ohno looked around and saw the disappointed looks on his team's face. He didn't mean to make the tower fall- he just wanted to play too. Ohno's face crumpled as he his eyes filled with tears.
Nino was the first to notice Ohno and immediately went to him, taking him out of the baby carrier and holding him up, gently patting his on the back. "Shhh...it's okay. Don't cry." Nino cradled Ohno's head as the baby cried into his shoulder.
"I s-sowwy." Ohno apologized tearfully, quiet sobs coming out of him.
Nino shook his head as the rest of his team and even the guest team huddled around them. "We're not mad at you. It was an honest mistake." There were voices from the audience who spoke out, agreeing that it was only an accident and Satoshi wasn't at fault.
"B-but I make da tower fall." Ohno cried softly, looking up at everyone.
Aiba stepped forward, wiping the tears off his cheeks. "We both made the tower fall, ne? We're in this together." Aiba assured him, hoping his smile would cheer him up.
"It's alright, Satoshi-kun." Inoo spoke, Ohno's attention went to him. "You can blame it all on Chinen here." He offered, pointing at his youngest member. It had been Chinen who had placed the coins right before Ohno.
Chinen looked shocked for a second before looking at Ohno. Seeing the tears that were still falling down the chubby cheeks, Chinen sighed as his eyes turned gentle. "Yup. It was because I placed my coins down strangely. It's all my fault, not yours. Promise."
Ohno stopped crying as Nino gave a small smile at Chinen. Yes, Chinen had never been his favorite kouhai- he hated how the young man's eyes would sparkle at the mere mention of his boyfriend (and yes, Nino knew that Chinen only looked at Ohno with fangirl eyes and not real love, but it still pissed Nino off)- but at this moment, Nino had to admit that Chinen was a pretty okay guy.
As Ohno stopped crying, they all knew that the baby was still sad at making the tower tall. Himura felt bad for him and even though he had called the baby a demon earlier, he decided to help cheer him up now.
"Satoshi, look here." Himura called to him. As soon as he got his attention, Himura did his gag with making a very ugly face and mumbling like an idiot.
Ohno immediately started laughing, his tears disappearing. And with Ohno's cheerful giggles filling the studio, it made everyone feel relieved and happy once again.
"Funny!" Ohno giggled some more, pointing at Himura.
Himura grinned back at him as he reached out to pat the baby on the head. "And you're not such a demon after all." He conceded, chuckling at the now very energetic baby.
And at that moment, Himura became more favorable to the public and gained more fans.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 3: GoGo Sweeper
"So Arashi team, you're now behind by 440 points." The voice from above informed them.
Nino rolled his eyes. "Yeah, you don't need to tell us. We already know that we're losing." He muttered, hugging Ohno who was attached to him now.
The third game was GoGO Sweeper. But since the producer informed them that due to all the scenes they filmed and the time limit, they would only be playing for one round. Yabu and Takaki were playing from Hey!Say!JUMP while Nino, Ohno and Himura were playing from Arashi.
"Are you sure it's safe for Satoshi to be in there?" Sho asked, looking worried. He had been voicing his concerns as they set up the set. He didn't think a baby would be safe in the mini cars.
"The staff said that it's perfectly okay for him to be here, just as long as he stays in his carrier." Nino assured him, waving at him with Ohno's small arm. The audience squealed at the adorable gesture.
"Yeah. And the opponents of course will not play too roughly down there." Jun added, sending a threatening glare at the two JUMP members.
"Don't worry senpai." Jun looked at Arioka who spoke up. "Yabu here is known for driving very slowly and carefully like a grandpa. And Yuya here is actually pretty terrified to bump into his senpai." Arioka assured.
"That's right." Yabu agreed with Takaki also nodding. While this conversation went on, there was suddenly a shot showing Himura frowning deeply.
"Eh? Himura-san, what's wrong?" The voice from above asked.
Himura's frown deepened. "I'm not sure if the rest of the members know this, but Satoshi has been calling me, 'Banana' since the beginning of the show." He answered, looking displeased.
Nino gave him a blank look. "So what?"
Himura huffed at the indifference in Nino's tone. "Banana isn't my name!"
"Eh? Really?" Sho asked, looking shocked.
"All this time we've been wrong?" Aiba added, his jaw dropping.
"No, no, no. You're both being strange!" Himura accused, narrowing his eyes at them.
"Yeah. It's more like a coconut," Jim corrected them, putting his hands up and making a round motion around his head.
"Stop making fun of my hair! I'm a human being, not a fruit!" Himura argued, pounding at the car.
"Okay, let's start the game!" Nino said gleefully, starting his car for the first lap.
"Hey!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 4: Pinball Runner
Although Arashi had played well in GoGo Sweeper, they were still not able to beat Hey!Say!JUMP and now the scores so far are HSJ: 940 and Arashi: 475. The gap had widen once more with 465 points between them.
"Is there even a chance to win anymore?" Jun demanded as he held onto the basket. He was chosen as the runner while the rest of the team were on the commander's platform.
"Yes, it is still possible." The voice from above confirmed. "But Arashi team is really gonna have to do their best in the remaining games."
Sho shook his head at that. "I'm not sure if the audience have noticed, but we HAVE been trying very hard since the first game." The audience laughed at his frustration.
"So who's going to say what?" Jun questioned, facing them.
"Me and Nino will be calling out for the yellow ones. I get the first half and then when the first pink ball falls, we will switch." Aiba explained. "The pink balls will go to Sho and Satoshi."
"I'll call the first pink ball and Satoshi will get the second one." Sho continued, hugging the baby close to him. The carrier was attached to Sho now.
"Huh? What about me?" Himura asked, frowning at all of them.
"Just stand there and stay out of the way." Sho suggested.
"Hey!" Himura shouted as Jun nodded, saying that it was a good plan.
"But does Satoshi know the numbers?" Jun asked, looking at the boy worriedly.
"Twust me, JuJu!" Ohno yelled out happily, giving Jun a cute thumbs up. Everyone in the studio laughed and cooed at how adorable Ohno was. Jun gave into the grin that was breaking out on his face and started to face forward.
Everything was going well as Jun managed to catch a lot of yellow balls and even the first pink ball went into the basket. But the truth was, Ohno didn't know how to read or even how to count to ten.
When the second pink ball dropped down, Sho immediately held Ohno up to the mike. Ohno began yelling out the number five, because it was his favorite number. All the members panicked as the ball was headed towards 8-9 but they didn't want to pull the baby away from the mic since Ohno seemed to be having fun.
And then a miracle happened.
The ball suddenly hit into one of the moving pins and everyone looked astonished as it fell directly from the number five spot and right into Jun's basket.
"This baby has powers, I tell you." Himura commented in awe. The game had ended and they had won 200 points.
"Satoshi is amazing!" Aiba announced proudly, giving a kiss on the giggling baby's cheek (of course, the audience screamed loudly at that).
"That was so cool!" The Hey!Say!JUMP members were also impressed.
"Good job, Satoshi!" Jun winked at the baby, giving him a thumbs up.
Ohno was grinning widely as he also held up his thumb. "Yup!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 5: Bank Bowling
"I'm starting to see the light." Sho said cheerfully.
Hey!Say!JUMP only managed fifty points from the last game. Chinen, who was the runner, ended up having to catch the balls by himself since the members on the platform kept yelling out too many different numbers at once, making Chinen confused. So the score now was HSJ: 990 and Arashi: 675. They were separated by 315 points.
"And it's all thanks to Satoshi." Nino pointed out smugly, tickling the baby who was attached to him once more. For the first round, the ones playing were Nino, Ohno and Aiba.
"So Satoshi, how many pins do you want to hit?" The voice from above asked.
Ohno still tended to look up, trying to find the mysterious voice, before answering. "All a dem!" The audience and his team clapped, rooting for him. Even Hey!Say!JUMP was cheering for baby Ohno.
"I have a good feeling about today." Nino confessed, grabbing a blue bowling ball.
"I think we can make a strike happen." Aiba said confidently, holding up his green bowling ball.
"We have Satoshi here after all." Sho explained, gesturing towards the baby. The voice from above told them that it would be the first time in the show's history to get a strike. Even the Hey!Say!JUMP members were getting excited by this.
Jun nodded. "Let's do it!"
The chants filled the studio. Nino and Aiba exchanged a nod at each other as they looked directly forward. Taking a deep breath, Nino released his ball first, with Aiba coming right behind him.
Everyone was quiet as the balls rolled. There was suddenly screaming and awing as the balls collided with each other. Nino yelled in shock as Aiba groaned sliding down.
Aiba green ball hit the entire left side, taking it all out. As Nino's ball rolled back down, it had aimed at the right side of the triangle. Suddenly, the entire set was filled with screaming (for a whole different reason now) and stomping as Nino's ball- although missing the center- had caused a domino effect.
Nino and Aiba's jaws dropped and they shouted as the pins in the middle fell backward, taking out out the entire center of the triangle- including the red pin. Aiba's pin had destroyed the entire left side while Nino's ball had wiped out the entire right side and also caused a reaction that took out the middle.
There were no more pins left standing.
"YATTA!!!" Aiba and Nino yelled out, the cheers around them were deafening. The rest of their team shot out of their seats and joined them, giving them hugs and jumping up and down in celebration. Even Hey!Say!JUMP was cheering for them, smiling happily and laughing ecstatically.
"Arashi team has done it! For the first time in this show's history, we have a strike! All the pins were worth 250 points, and including the bonus of getting a strike Arashi team has won a total of 350 points!" The voice from above announced, his voice filled with obvious joy.
Everyone was cheering, still trying to process that a strike was finally achieved. When everyone calmed down, the voice from above asked them, "Ninomiya-kun? How does it feel getting a strike for the very first time?"
Nino was grinning widely as he answered, "It's amazing. I can't believe we did it. Even though we weren't the first ones to get a spare, getting this strike is totally a higher accomplishment." Nino took a breath as he cuddled to the baby on his chest. "And I obviously didn't do this alone. Without Aiba and especially Satoshi here, we would have never gotten the strike." He said, looking at them proudly. "In fact, without Arashi and everyone in the audience and even our kouhai here...I just..." Nino shook his head. "I'm just so freaking happy right now!"
Aiba grinned even wider, trying to hold back tears as he hugged Nino and Ohno. Jun, Sho and even Himura joined in too. "We did it!"
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 6: Cliff Climbing
"Next up is Arashi team!"
Jun and Sho posed in front of the cameras as they were the ones chosen to be the next climbers.
After their strike in the last game, the pins were reset for the next round. Everyone would agree that since Arashi was behind, it would be the best opportunity for them to hit more pins and get even more points.
But unfortunately, it was found out that Sho and Himura (the next bowlers) didn't exactly work well. Both of their balls ended up colliding with the other with Himura's ball veering to the left, not hitting even a single pin while Sho's ball stopped about two inches away from the red ball.
Jun commented that their turn would most likely be narrated.
But Arashi's good fortune continued as Hey!Say!JUMP didn't score a lot of points on their turns. The pairs were Yuto with Arioka and Inoo with Keito. Altogether they got 110 points. The scores after the fifth game was HSJ: 1100 points and Arashi: 1025. Arashi had definitely rebounded and we're just 75 points away.
Hey!Say!JUMP were the ones who went first. Their climbers were Yamada and Hikaru. The group said that they were confident that these two would be able to climb the fastest. Hikaru had experience with this game and Yamada was the strongest in terms of strength in their group.
Nino and Jun tried to psych out Yamada, knowing that he had a fear of heights, but Yamada was able to brush off their taunts and together with Hikaru, the both of them reached the top and pressed all the buttons with 11 seconds remaining. Their score was 333 points, making their overall score so far to be 1433 points.
Now it was Arashi's turn and even the audience let out their confusion when they saw that Sho was one of the climbers.
"Sakurai-kun! The audience is is making noises at you." Himura pointed out to him.
Sho shook his head, waving his finger at the camera. "It's okay. Because I completely feel the same way as them right now." As the audience laughed, Sho looked at his members, "I know that we're catching up with Hey!Say!JUMP, but is it a really good idea for me to be here?"
Aiba nodded at him. "Don't worry. We believe in you!" He assured his boyfriend cheerfully.
Nino smirked. "And it's not like we're letting you climb the chin. You're only taking on the finger."
Jun nodded, fixing his gloves. "Don't worry. We know that you can at least climb up the finger successfully. But please climb two sides, okay?"
Sho widened his eyes at that. "Seriously?!"
"You know, Sakurai-kun..." Himura started, pointing at him. "Exactly what have you been doing this whole episode.
Sho paused as he thought about it. "Well, I got us five points in Korokoro Viking, placed coins only once in Rolling Coin Tower, did nothing in GoGo Sweeper, called out only once in Pinball Runner, and got a gutter in Bank Bowling." Sho listed off from the top of his head. Looking back at his members, he nodded, "Please let me climb two sides and prove my usefulness on this team."
The audience cheered as his members just nodded, smirking politely at him.
"You can do it, Papa!" Ohno cheered loudly, raising his arms up wide and smiling.
"Yosh!" Sho raised his thumb up and winked at Ohno. The audience of course squealed and clapped more at this.
The game began and with encouragement from everybody, Sho quickly covered both sides of the cliff and conquered Odaiba's finger instantly. Since Jun was one of their fastest climbers, he just zoomed right up the cliff and press all the buttons. As soon as he pressed the 50 point button on top, Jun knew that they had gotten a high score.
Dropping to the floor, Jun began removing his gloves as the voice from above announced their score. "Pressing all the buttons and with 36 seconds left, making a bonus of an additional 108 points, Arashi's total for this game is 408 points. Adding to their total score...eh? Arashi managed to tie with Hey!SayJUMP with both teams having 1433 points each!"
Both teams were shocked with the results as the audience cheered louder than ever.
…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…
Game 7: Kicking Sniper (FINAL GAME)
"Who would have ever thought things would end up this way." Sho commented, a look of disbelief still on his face.
The final game was Kicking Sniper. Hey!Say!JUMP had gone first. Since there was nine members in their group, they were evenly divided into groups of three for the game. During their pre-talk, their kouhai showed how pumped up and ready they were to beat Arashi.
No one could have predicted the outcome that had happened.
Nino smirked, crossing his arms across his chest as he grinned smugly at his kouhai. "It's very rare for us to see a team hit nothing during this game." He snickered.
Unbelievably, Hey!Say!JUMP got a score of zero from the last game. About half of the members had just missed the target or had hit the target but it wasn't powerful enough to fall while that other half just kicked the ball in whatever direction that was completely far off from the targets.
"We're also still in shock that we didn't hit anything." Yabu agreed, still not processing what had happened.
Yuto groaned. "We're so screwed!"
"Do we even need to play now? We already know that we only have to hit one can in order to beat them." Nino pointed out, raising an eyebrow.
"But this episode has been so interesting so far- this would be a horrible ending!" Aiba complained, pouting his lips.
"Yeah, we should do something then." Jun started, a familiar burning starting in his eyes. Ohno, who was attached to him this time, looked up at Jun, cocking his head at the strange tone in Jun's voice.
Nino looked at Jun in horror. "Oh no. I know that look in his eyes. He's definitely gonna suggest something bad."
"Please just let it go, Daredevil Jun." Sho begged.
Jun smirked at them. "I promise that it'll make things interesting."
Sho shook his head as he pleaded, "This episode is interesting enough- let's just end this special peacefully.
Jun smiled as he looked up at them with an innocent expression on his face. "Wouldn't it be fine if we choose only three of us to play this game? And those three players have only ONE chance to knock down ONE can?" He suggested.
Nino and Sho groaned. Aiba and Himura looked completely confused and worried. "And Daredevil Jun strikes again~" Sho moaned, hiding his face in his hands.
"Urghhh...this is impossible!" Nino whined as he slid to the ground in defeat.
For the three players, it was chosen to be Jun (since it was his idea in the first place), Aiba (he had lost in janken) and Himura (the members forced him to play).
"Why do I have to be the last one to kick?" Himura complained. "This is too much pressure!"
"It's because you're the plus one so of course we should have you close out the show." Nino explained, smiling innocently at him.
As Himura kept complaining, Jun unattached the baby carrier and brought it and Ohno to Himura. "Here, I'll let you hold Satoshi this time. Maybe he'll give you good luck." Jun offered to him. "But you better be careful with him- don't fall or anything." He threatened.
Himura put on the carrier, carefully making sure that the baby was alright. "I'll need all the luck I can get." Himura muttered.
Ohno looked up at Himura and smiled. "Go Banana!" Himura was so nervous at that moment that he didn't even argue with the nickname and merely cracked a small smile at the baby.
Ohno at first was uncomfortable being carried by someone that wasn't his mama, papa, Kazu or JuJu, but he knew that Banana was a good guy so he decided to just deal with it for now (and at least he was still near the members).
"Due to the special change of rules, the three players will have only one chance to knock down the can. If they were to miss, the win will automatically go to Hey!Say!JUMP." The voice from above announced. "Before the last game starts, Satoshi? Do you have anything you want to say to your team?"
Ohno looked at all his members and smiled widely. "Gambatty!" Everyone cheered and clapped at the cute words of encouragement. The three members looked forward, getting ready to kick.
"Kicking Sniper, START!" At the words from the voice from above, the final game began. One lonesome can came out.
Jun was the first kicker. He kicked with all his might, but unfortunately his ball swerved to the left of the target.
Aiba was the second kicker. He gathered up all his strength as he kicked the ball hard. The ball had just missed the target, sailing right above.
Last kicker was Himura. He was completely horrified when he realized that the other two had missed and it was all up to him now.
He quickly rubbed the top of Ohno's head, like one would do with a deity, and he prayed that luck would be on his side as the can neared him.
Taking a deep breath, he wrapped one arm around Ohno- to secure the baby, making sure he wouldn't get harmed- and he kicked the ball with a booming shout of, "BANANA!" The ball flew through the air and grazed the right side of can, making it wobble dangerously. Everyone held their breaths.
The can fell.
"VS Arashi Winter Special, the winners are ARASHI TEAM!"
