"Then, lets each do our best we can stay focused!" Mako said as Kiyoko nodded.

Albert Wahlander an Olympic swimming prodigy slumped on his couch with a towel around his neck as he held his phone out in front of him. After maintaining his two world titles in the world championships he prompted to watch his younger sibling swim in her events. He already knew the amount of power that Kiyoko possessed in her but he had never gotten the chance to see her swims due to last year's hectic schedule caused by none other than his coach Ralph.
Streaming onto the highschool regional qualifiers it seemed he could catch a glimpse of her freestyle event due to Ralph demanding he would get ready to the next flight they had to catch back to Sweden.
Women's heat four for the one hundred freestyle event qualifiers
"Little Valkyrie," he smiled as he saw his sister through the device as the camera showed a far off close shot of the swimmers.
"Albert!" Ralph called out as the blonde Swedish swimmer sighed as he saw and heard his coach come through the door.
"Hey Ralph," he nonchalantly said
"Your suppose to be getting ready for the flight and packing, I'm not your nanny," he huffed
"Aww Ralph you should be, you're already my babysitter," he cheekily said as his coach narrowed his eyes at the swimmer.
"I'm watching Little Valykyrie's heat, lookie," he showed the screen.
"Fine just watch one event then start packing," he waved off as he closed the door behind him.
"Thank you, Ralph," he called out as he put on his headphones and turned on the subtitles on dutch translation, "Oh, starting now,'
Albert watched his sister walked onto the starting block, the number five plastered right under; the prep whistle blowing she adjusted herself to her signature stance. The gun firing Kiyoko just missed by a few milliseconds to start earlier than usual.
Grunting in the water she blew out bubbles and focused.
" come on little v," Albert mumbled his eyes glued to the screen as soon her strokes became bolder.
Her strong legs became faster and faster, stimulating her through the water. But something was far off about her swimming style when she hit the turn. Elegance was something everyone described her swimming style but this was something else.
Her strokes were now bold, vivid almost inhuman. She left everyone behind her in a blink of an eye. Touching the wall she took off her cap and looked at the board.
1. Kiyoko Araki.
Smiling she could hear the cheers coming from Samezuka and Iwatobi as the announcer then said:
Congratulations Kiyoko Araki in lane five for setting a new tournament record.
"Good job little Valkyrie," Albert smirked as he switched off the phone.

Kiyoko qualifying for all of her events for nationals and leaving scouts shocked and astonished in this sudden change of abilities that could only be described as astronomical and chills radiating off the other swimmers; the blonde walked back to stands fresh from the showers, there Gou and the rest were about to see Makoto's turn to swim.
"Hey, guys," Kiyoko said a little out of breath as they all turned to her.
"That was amazing Kiyoko-senpai! You're so fast!" Hana exclaimed.
