Prolog
Author
Thanks for visiting my story!
Author
This is actually my 3rd Chat FF here
Author
I'm still working on Inumaki x Reader chat FF but it took me longer
Author
Since Jujutsu Universe is quite 'hard' to fully understand (iykyk)🥺😭
Author
So, I decided to make a Haikyu FF with AtsuHina ship as my side work
Author
It still surprised me, how I always adored KageHina ship but I'm going with this ship instead for this story🤣
Author
Guess I will explore AtsuHina & KageHina's interaction dynamics through this AU FF
Author
One more thing tho, don't expect any volleyball scenes here, it's an AU afterall ! :3
Author
Anyway, enough of the chit chat..
Author
Hope you enjoy the story!
Miya Osamu
are you going to be like this forever?
Miya Osamu
*gets up from his bed and nudge his brother's bed beside him*
Miya Atsumu
*takes off his headset*
Miya Osamu
you know what I'm saying
Miya Osamu
it's been 3 months already
Miya Osamu
at first I don't really care because I believe in you
Miya Osamu
and I know that you need time
Miya Osamu
but it's been so long..the boys said they need you to be on the stage again
Miya Atsumu
how? I don't know what to write anymore
Miya Atsumu
especially after 'that incident'
Miya Osamu
you know, it wasn't your fault at all
Miya Osamu
and damn, can't you find inspiration from your favourite movies?
Miya Atsumu
what happened, samu?
Miya Atsumu
it's not like you to talk this much
Miya Atsumu
I'm not in a mood to argue right now
Miya Atsumu
let's talk later
Miya Osamu
*pulls Tsumu to face him*
Miya Osamu
Hell, our band always bombarded me with their questions and worries for you
Miya Osamu
our fans have been flooding my DM with the same damn question
Miya Osamu
every.single.day
Miya Osamu
I'm tired with all of this, Tsumu...
Miya Atsumu
don't you understand what I said ? I just can't
Miya Atsumu
even if I manage to write one song
Miya Atsumu
it won't be good
Miya Osamu
at least give our band a clear plan for the future
Miya Osamu
whether you wanna stay in the band or not
Miya Osamu
Tsumu, looking at you, I'm affraid..
Miya Osamu
I feel like your passion in music is slowly fading
Miya Osamu
*shocks to hear that*
Miya Atsumu
*rolls on his bed facing away from his brother*
Miya Osamu
don't turn your back on me again, Tsumu
Miya Osamu
it's not just about our band
Miya Osamu
you've never been this down for a long time
Miya Osamu
it's not like you at all
Miya Osamu
you know that I will always support any of your life choices
Miya Osamu
if you ever decided to not continue pursuing music in your future career that's fine
Miya Osamu
if you wanna quit our band..that's fine too
Miya Atsumu
so why are we having this conversation?
Miya Osamu
listen to me till the end
Miya Atsumu
okay, okay chill..
Miya Osamu
I just don't want you to lose your passion in this life
Miya Osamu
I don't want you to hate what you've always loved all of your life
Miya Osamu
music is part of your life
Miya Osamu
and it's part is much bigger than it has in my life
Miya Osamu
all these years, I'm the witness of your love and struggles in music
Miya Osamu
I don't care what you choose from now onwards
Miya Osamu
it's your life after all
Miya Osamu
but at least be responsible of something you've been fighting for
Miya Osamu
and also..I don't wanna hear a single regret from your mouth in the future
Miya Atsumu
this is truly the first time in my life I've heard you talking this long
Miya Atsumu
*stands up from his bed*
Miya Atsumu
*lightly punches Samu's arms*
Miya Atsumu
*wipes away his tears*
Miya Atsumu
you're right..I'm so sorry..
Miya Atsumu
it's all because of me
Miya Atsumu
I was such a brat, right?
Miya Osamu
we're on a long ride of hell because of you
Miya Atsumu
now, what do you want me to do?
Miya Osamu
first, be responsible for your choice in the past
Miya Osamu
do you still want to be part of our band?
Miya Atsumu
yeah..it's my 2nd home, how can I leave?
Miya Osamu
then first, you can start by writing new songs
Miya Atsumu
I can't, Samu. I've told you million times before-
Miya Osamu
listen, I've had this in my head for some time
Miya Osamu
why don't you find a muse?
Miya Osamu
yup, you heard it right
Miya Osamu
sometimes artists need their own muse to find inspiration
Miya Atsumu
hmmm..it's a good idea
Miya Atsumu
but I'm not sure anyone can catch my eyes
Miya Osamu
hah, what an annoying brat
Miya Osamu
but oh well, that's Tsumu that I know
Miya Osamu
*throws a pillow to Tsumu*
Miya Atsumu
oh so you ask for it!
Miya Atsumu
*smacks Samu's head with his pillow*
After that, they literally had pillow fights for 15 minutes
Moments later, they finally give up
Miya Atsumu
*lays on Samu's bed*
Miya Osamu
*struggles to catch his breath too*
Miya Osamu
let's start off with dates and mixers
Miya Osamu
operation finding your muse
Miya Osamu
if you're able to find your muse, you owe me one and you need to write new songs asap
Miya Atsumu
are you serious?
Miya Atsumu
I thought you were joking
Miya Osamu
*gives Tsumu a cold stare*
Miya Osamu
this is for you and everyone that are worried about you
Miya Osamu
we need to do anything that we can
Miya Atsumu
you..always surprised me every time, Samu
Miya Atsumu
and what if I still can't find my muse?
Miya Osamu
if your guess is right, I owe you one
Miya Osamu
treat you for whole course meal for a month
Miya Osamu
and try another method
Miya Atsumu
well-well, you do really love me, huh, Samu?
Miya Atsumu
it's okay, don't be shy and admit it
Miya Osamu
oh, you ask for this, this time
Miya Osamu
*throws his pillow again*
Miya Atsumu
hahahaha, bring it on
Today's the D-Day for the first date that Osamu arranged for Atsumu
Atsumu is waiting on a bench near a large artificial lake while watching people passed by
He waited for 30 minutes already but his date isn't there yet
It's a real turn off for him
Even tho, he hates going out to meet stranger,
still he respects his promise with Osamu by arriving on time
So this late demeanor is very unacceptable for Atsumu
Miya Atsumu
*looks at his watch*
Miya Atsumu
(well, if 5 more minutes she doesn't come, I'll go)
Miya Atsumu
(luckily, the vibe here is nice..I can really fall asleep..)
Miya Atsumu
*closes his eyes and focusing on every single sounds coming around the park*
Basking in warm morning sunlight and enjoying the vibe, soon Atsumu fell asleep
But suddenly a loud harmonica sound resonates through the air, awaken Tsumu completely
Atsumu knows it's playing "Over The Rainbow" but something's different
The melody seems playful at first, and warm yet nostalgic later
He's very intrigued who plays that enchanting melody
Miya Atsumu
*stands up and searching for anyone who plays the harmonica*
A boy with fluffy, bright orange coloured hair sits under the shade of a big willow tree
His eyes are closed but his small fingers skilfully glides through his harmonica
Unbeknownst to the boy, small animals are starting to gather around him
They're just like Atsumu-enchanted with this boy's magical play
Pigeons, squirrels, swans, a bunny, and even lizards stop at their tracks to watch and listen to him
Miya Atsumu
you must be kidding me..
Miya Atsumu
Aurora, Snow White's stories are true after all?
Unconsciously, his foot bring him closer to the boy
His heart begins to thumping rapidly
His breath quickens and sweats start to pool across his palms
The boy surprises him again when he puts down his harmonica and starts singing the lyrics
🎵🎶"Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly🎶🎵
🎶🎵 "Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?"" 🎵🎶
Atsumu's legs just gave up
Now it's his tears turn to come
He never knew that there'd be someone who made him realize that music is indeed beautiful
Honestly there's no special techniques in that boy's singing
But the way he pours his emotions into it, the way he entwines himself into every single notes
are the true bliss for Atsumu
His tears that flows like a river now, made him smile
Miya Atsumu
*touches his tears*
Miya Atsumu
(never have I imagined I'd cry listening to a singing
Miya Atsumu
(thank you for guiding me to this angel)
Miya Atsumu
(if this is what Samu's means by a muse)
Miya Atsumu
(he'll be the one and only muse in my life)
Miya Atsumu
(the one who will melt my frozen heart and lights my way)
When Atsumu closed his eyes and swore his oath in his heart
That boy finally opens his eyes and rushes into Atsumu in panic
Hinata Shoyo
hey, are you okay?!
Hinata Shoyo
do you want me to call an ambulance?
Miya Atsumu
*opens his eyes*
Miya Atsumu
*grabs that boy's small hands*
That was the last words before Atsumu lose his consciousness and faints in that boy's arms
Author
Okeyy!! Finally finished with the Prolog's chapter
Author
sorry if it's too long🥺
Author
see ya on the next chapt!
Chapter 1 : Waking Up
A distant voice that Atsumu knew very well called his name over and over again
"TSUMU! TSUMU, WAKE UP!!"
He desperately wanted to open his eyes, but something stopped him
"Don't worry. Ambulance is on the way here"
Miya Atsumu
(Ah..he must've been my muse)
His raw, crisp, beautiful high pitched voice still embedded in Atsumu's head and heart
Miya Atsumu
(I really need to wake up now)
Miya Atsumu
(open up my eyes!)
A sudden bursts of light blinds Atsumu's eyes in instant
But the view surrounding him was not what he thought it would be
He's laying on what he felt as a stretcher
The blinding lights turned out to be lights inside an ambulance
Miya Osamu
Sir, my brother has woken up!
Miya Osamu
please take off the mask for a moment sir, my brother wants to say something-
Random People
please stay calm, sir
Random People
we're arriving at hospital
Random People
*checks on Atsumu's vitals*
Random People
he seems good but we need to wait for doctor
Miya Osamu
stay with me, Tsumu!
Miya Osamu
it's okay, I'm right here with you
Miya Atsumu
*nods and lost his consciousness again*
Miya Atsumu
*opens his eyes*
Atsumu tries to move his arms but the stings from needles of IV drips on his left arm stops him
Miya Atsumu
(my head hurts..)
Miya Atsumu
*blinking his eyes a few times to check his surroundings*
Dim lights and closed curtains around his bed
Miya Atsumu
(welp, guess I'm on a hospital room)
Miya Osamu
*wakes up from the sounds of rustling bed sheets*
Miya Osamu
*opens the curtains*
Miya Osamu
Tsumu, Thank God..
Miya Osamu
you finally woke up
Miya Osamu
I need to call the doctor now
Miya Osamu
*rushing to pour a glass of water for Tsumu*
Miya Osamu
*puts a straw to help him*
Miya Osamu
here, here, drink this first
Miya Osamu
*helps Tsumu to sit straight*
Miya Atsumu
*drinks few sips*
Miya Osamu
how are you feeling?
Miya Osamu
the doctor said that you had anemia and you're very much sleep deprived
Miya Osamu
plus, he said that maybe there was something that triggered your..trauma
Miya Osamu
so do you want me to call the doctor now?
Atsumu puts on a faint smile and answers with his now raspy and deep voice
Miya Atsumu
I'm fine..just a little dizzy
Miya Atsumu
well, where is the boy?
Miya Atsumu
the orange haired boy
Miya Atsumu
the short one with angelic voice
Miya Osamu
what about him?
Miya Osamu
w-wait a second..
Miya Osamu
what did you say?
Miya Atsumu
I finally knew what you meant by finding a muse
Miya Atsumu
I finally found my muse
Miya Atsumu
your voice is too loud
Miya Atsumu
you got his number right?
Miya Atsumu
he was the one who saved me, right?
Miya Osamu
dude, I'm so sorry..
Miya Osamu
it was so hectic, the moment the ambulance arrived I forgot to even thank him-
Miya Osamu
I'm sorry, Tsumu
Miya Atsumu
hahaha, it's okay
Miya Atsumu
don't give me that sad face, Samu
Miya Atsumu
it doesn't fit you at all, haha
Miya Osamu
don't force your smile, Tsumu
Miya Osamu
and..are you sure that he's your muse?
Miya Atsumu
*takes a deep breath*
Miya Atsumu
100000% positive
Miya Atsumu
it's such a huge shame I didn't get his contact
Miya Atsumu
but..I do believe if we're fated to be together
Miya Atsumu
we'll meet again
Miya Atsumu
and..your goal is fulfilled right?
Miya Atsumu
now I have many inspirations to write new songs
Miya Osamu
but you can't meet him again
Miya Atsumu
who said I can't?
Miya Atsumu
I will make those songs for him
Miya Atsumu
maybe someday my melody will reach out to him
Miya Atsumu
are you ready?
Miya Osamu
hahah, so the old Atsumu is back?
Miya Atsumu
yup, just wait and "The Jackals" revival is coming soon
Miya Osamu
finally, the time has come..
Miya Atsumu
*opens studio door*
Miya Atsumu
it's been such a long time-
Kita Shinsuke
*smacks Atsumu's head*
Kita Shinsuke
finally you know what a responsibility means
Miya Atsumu
I'm sorry, senpai..
Kita Shinsuke
you don't need to tell us anything
Kita Shinsuke
you're here now, that's what's important
Kita Shinsuke
right, guys?
Aran Ojiro
we were just afraid that your play will get rusty
Aran Ojiro
it won't be good for our fan's ears
Miya Atsumu
don't say that, Aran..
Miya Atsumu
c'mere I miss you so much!
Miya Atsumu
*jumps to hugs Aran*
Aran Ojiro
*running away from Atsumu*
Kita Shinsuke
don't run around here
Kita Shinsuke
if you break even a single string on this studio, you're all gonna pay for that
Miya Atsumu
*stops midway*
Miya Atsumu
sorry, senpai..
The studio door opens again
Miya Osamu
you just came and already got scolded by Kita senpai?
Miya Atsumu
grrr!! Samu, c'mere you too!!
Suna Rintarou
hahaha, what a comeback
Suna Rintarou
*smirking playfully while recording the whole mess since the beginning*
Miya Atsumu
Rin-chan~, you missed me too, right?
Kita Shinsuke
*claps his hand one time*
Kita Shinsuke
so, everyone's here right?
Kita Shinsuke
what's the plan?
Kita Shinsuke
Samu already said to me that you got us a new song Tsumu..
Kita Shinsuke
is that right?
Miya Atsumu
specifically, I wrote 3 songs for our comeback!!
Miya Atsumu
come on praise me, praise me
But suddenly the whole studio room went silent
Suna Rintarou
that explained months worth hiatus
Miya Osamu
I didn't know you made 3 songs, Tsumu...
Miya Atsumu
is it a bad thing?
Miya Atsumu
you can choose one of them if it's too much
Kita Shinsuke
absolutely no
Kita Shinsuke
it seems like you're in your peak
Kita Shinsuke
how can we waste this chance?
Aran Ojiro
what exactly happened past few months?
Aran Ojiro
did you really go to meditate on a secluded mountain?
Miya Atsumu
hahahaha, of course not
Miya Atsumu
it's just that..
Miya Atsumu
I...met my muse!
Miya Atsumu
*smiles widely*
Suna Rintarou
hmm, the tea is exceptionally good this morning
Kita Shinsuke
we can continue this chit chat later
Kita Shinsuke
can you play the demo, now?
Kita Shinsuke
we must practice them as soon as possible
Miya Atsumu
got it, senpai
Miya Atsumu
*turns on his phone*
Miya Atsumu
*search for the demo on his playlist*
Miya Atsumu
this is the first song
Miya Atsumu
*plays his first song*
Miya Atsumu
it's called "Suffocating"
Miya Atsumu
prepare your ears guys, it's a heavy metal one
"The Jackals" are known for its experimental works, so even if they never tried playing metal songs before, it doesn't surprise other members
The sounds of roaring drums and electric guitar filled the room instantly
🎵Suffocating from my own greediness, my selfishness🎶
🎵How can I atone for my sins?🎶
🎵I lost sense of direction in this cruel labyrinth🎶
🎵Take me out, hear me out🎶
🎵I'm suffocated, ahhh!!!🎶
The demo finally came to stop
Aran is the first one to break the silence
Aran Ojiro
*wipes away his tears*
Aran Ojiro
even tho it's a metal
Aran Ojiro
but surprisingly, it was..heartwrenching
Aran Ojiro
never knew you could write a song like that
Miya Atsumu
you guys probably knew that this was written based on these past few months of hell
Kita Shinsuke
it's new but it's decent
Miya Osamu
don't be sad, you know how difficult it is to get a compliment from Kita senpai..you must be a master to get that privilege
Miya Atsumu
I know, I'm not worrying about that, dude
Miya Atsumu
(it's just that..what if...after the past long hiatus, I actually lost my talent??!)
Kita Shinsuke
don't worry, it's truly a decent song
Kita Shinsuke
we can arrange it later to match our style
Kita Shinsuke
so..can we move on to the next song?
Miya Atsumu
*plays the second demo*
Miya Atsumu
it's called "Debris"
This time, the song progressed into ballad sounds, dominated by 4/4 rhytm from piano
🎵Shattered bricks of its tower🎶
🎵Broken pieces of my family's soul🎶
🎵As they saw the castle they loved has fallen down🎶
🎵How long I've been drown?🎶
🎵I plucked the remaining debris🎶
🎵Oh, how these debris carried hope🎶
🎵These debris carried the love my family offered🎶
🎵And now you came, maybe these debris🎶
🎵Could become a home for us🎶
Suna Rintarou
guys, no comment?
Kita Shinsuke
*turned his head away from them and quietly wiping tears on his cheeks*
Kita Shinsuke
*faces them again with his usual poker face*
Kita Shinsuke
what do you think, guys?
Miya Osamu
did you make this after our discussion that time?
Miya Atsumu
these 3 songs tells my depressing journey in chronological timeline
Miya Atsumu
I'm genius, right?
Suna Rintarou
*rolling his eyes*
Aran Ojiro
hahaha, you surprised me again
Aran Ojiro
maybe I'm a sucker for unique "based on true story" kind of lyrics, lol
Kita Shinsuke
okay, let's move on to the last song
Miya Atsumu
*plays the last demo*
The last demo turned out to be upbeat pop rock song with colour of hope
Miya Osamu
Geez, Sumu, I can't handle your mood swing
Miya Atsumu
hushh, just listen to it
Miya Atsumu
this is around the time I met my muse
🎵My weak legs were forced to run🎶
🎵With nothing but the hope of my family🎶
🎵I tried to be alive again🎶
🎵But this time, baby, this timee🎶
🎵I found you in the middle🎶
🎵You who came to me like a wind of July🎶
🎵Strings of your voice woke me up from my nightmare🎶
🎵Please hold me and don't let me go🎶
Suna Rintarou
you're so damn whipped, boi
Aran Ojiro
do we know your muse?
Aran Ojiro
who is a man that was able to stole your cold heart?
Suna Rintarou
protective much?
Miya Atsumu
i seriously don't know guys
Miya Atsumu
I literally passed out after listening to his voice
Suna Rintarou
he's dangerous then
Miya Atsumu
you know it's not like that
Kita Shinsuke
*claps his hand so hard it startled the whole room*
Suna Rintarou
*turns on his phone*
Kita Shinsuke
Suna, drop the phone
Kita Shinsuke
what do you all think of the 3 songs?
Aran Ojiro
do you need to ask? they're all lit!
Miya Osamu
we can patch things here and there but yeah, Tsumu knows what he's doing
Suna Rintarou
no objection from me
Kita Shinsuke
okay..then it's decided
Suna Rintarou
so...can we announce this on our social media?
Kita Shinsuke
not yet,be patience!
Kita Shinsuke
we need to make sure the songs are ready and we are ready before giving this big news to our fans
Kita Shinsuke
I just don't want to disappoint them any further
Miya Atsumu
got it, senpai
Miya Atsumu
in the mean time, I need to find my muse again
Miya Atsumu
(I'll find you, my dear muse)
