The Little Elf Was Kidnapped to Rikkai

[The story will begin once the word count reaches 150,000. Come give it a favorite! Mwah!]

(Contains bullet comments! Also known as "So I'm Ryoma's golden finger?")

Blurb:

An Ci is a tiny little fairy, no bigger than a thumb. He lives with the Yukimura family, occasionally borrows things, and gives the children of the household his blessings.

As it turns out, even a fairy's blessings should be given in moderation.

[Is this Ryoma's golden finger? How did it end up with Rikkai's captain?]

[So cute, I want to keep him]

[Yukimura isn't sick yet at this point]

An Ci had just given Seiichi Yukimura his blessing when he saw the bullet comments suddenly appear out of nowhere.

He stared at them blankly, so startled that he forgot to flap his wings and nearly fell again.

From the stream of passing words, he pieced together a few bits of the "future":

1. A great demon king named "Ryoma" would defeat the little humans.

2. One of the little humans would fall seriously ill.

3. Rikkai, led by the little humans, would lose the Kanto tournament.

4. He was supposed to be that "Ryoma's" golden finger.

5. He seemed to be able to grow bigger, but he didn't know what triggered it.

From then on, An Ci was highly wary of anyone whose name included "Ryoma," and checked the bullet comments every single day without fail.

When he met the little human's friend Genichiro Sanada, a comment floated by: [A kind person who goes easy on Ryoma].

An Ci flew up to Sanada, hands on his hips, and warned him, "If you don't play to your full potential, you don't deserve to play tennis!"

Genichiro Sanada: "...?"

Go easy on him? Me?

When An Ci next saw Rikkai's regulars, one comment after another complained, "Going easy on them," "Going easy on them," "Going easy on them." An Ci decided to lecture every one of them, and make sure the ending in the comments never came true.

"I'm your friend too, but if you go easy on your friends, I'm not going to talk to you anymore!"

The sight of a tiny fairy standing with his hands on his hips and scolding them somehow made the tennis boys nod obediently. An Ci nodded in satisfaction, and before he knew it, he had become everyone's darling.

Then one day, An Ci got lost, and suddenly the bullet comments filled his vision:

[Ryoma! Ryoma!]

[Come claim your golden finger!!]

An Ci trembled as he stared at the short boy in the distance, the legendary great demon king, "Ryoma."

As luck would have it, the other boy saw him too.

A tennis ball struck him with pinpoint accuracy. An Ci saw stars, and when he opened his eyes again, the great demon king was holding him in his palm.

An Ci: scared.jpg.

Later, he was caught by Keigo Atobe of Hyotei too. Atobe looked him over, raised an eyebrow, and smiled. "Hmm? Such a splendid little thing. You might just be worthy of me."

After all their twists and turns, An Ci finally flapped his wings and darted behind the little human, Seiichi Yukimura, desperately repeating to himself: If only I could grow bigger too...

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a soft light suddenly surrounded him. He really began to grow bigger, and bigger, and bigger.

Later, he realized from the bullet comments that [that was the plot of another world].

And he wasn't anyone's golden finger. He was just an ordinary little fairy.

A few things to know before reading:

1. OOC warning.

2. An Ci is just a little fairy, and a bit of a dimwit.

3. This is a parallel world based on The Prince of Tennis.

4. Harem-reverse vibes!!! (Important), with Seiichi Yukimura as the pairing.

5. Different strokes for different folks. No need to tell me if you drop the story.
