Location: Inaistar

Each and every single person that seemed to be living in the out in the greens today. The benches that usually were not occupied we're filled to the

horizon, little kids running around with balloons and several vendors were hawking different sorts of memorabilia.

Walking among the crowds, a dark haired family whose green locks didn't seem to really stick out in the vibrant atmosphere.

Three girls ran out ahead, short green pigtails, black short curls and deep blue hair in a low tie bouncing as they chased each other around.

Coming upon the wide open and quite expansive amphitheater, the three girls gave out gasps of awe to the jovial setting.

Minami Yuan, her black hair lit up with the multiple glowing ties around her neck, reached out to Leisa Braques and Chie Koi, both of their eyes eagerly

shining with hearts.

The clouds shone with an array of lights, as a great bird-like ship descended through them.

"It's starting!"

"Everyone! Thank you for waiting!"


Chie rushed down the long hallway, the stack of papers in her grip fluttering around, some pieces looking like they were going to come out and flutter

away. Many people lined the corridors, all dressed in the same style uniforms, long white tied blazers on girls and a similar style on the boys.

It was the one day that she needed to get to her cubby as soon as possible, and that one day just happened to be the day that new hopeful

students were due to tour the school in the evening and all activities and areas needed to be shapely.

Being the student council president's secretary had it's perks, knowing things that were going to happen before the general student populace knew

about it, and the likes.

However, making sure ALL activities and clubs were accounted for was not her definition of a perk.

"Chie-san! Congrats on your dad's win!"

"So you get to live in the mansion now?"

"Can the tennis club come over!?"

She gave shorts replies back, and just as hurriedly continued on.

Coming upon the foyer of the school, quite a few students were huddled around the screens displaying the news.

"Revolution In Entertainment To Be Questioned"

"Candidate Koi Wins Inaistar Race"

"What does this mean for music?

She could only give sideways glance, but already just the sight of the pictures on the screen turned her stomach.

How could her own father be so unaware and in denial of his own daughter's obsession, no, love?

It was like her own dream was being crushed, and her was her father winning what had been his ultimate prize, the presidency of this planet. She

felt anger, regret but mostly a sinking feeling in her stomach that caused her nose and eyes to tingle, drops pricking at the sides of her eyes.

She hurried even faster out the door, bypassing chattering crowds, most which tried in some form to beckon her over or give gestures that she

should join their conversations.

Ducking out the front gate, she held her head down as she approached the shaded black car and reached for the handle. She gratefully retreated to

the back seat and was mildlly thankful that her father was obsessive about privacy. The tinted window between the wheel and the passenger area

allowed her to peacefully sit.

Her body trembled, her hands gripping the bag on her shoulder.

Pushing the thoughts out of her mind, as the new daughter of the President of Inaistar should act, she swung it off and opened it, carefully

distracting herself as she organized out the papers and brought them back into order again.


Cruising up a steep hill, she could see her new home. A wide terrace was filled with plants and trees, all of which surely required quite a few people

to take care of and groom.

Her gaze being absorbed by the new sight, she was startled out of her stupor when the prism-like crystal around her neck gave off a ping.

Pulling on it by the string, the screen lit up in the air. A letter shaped icon bounced in the corner, the whimsical designs around it moving frantically.

Her own device had been set around her preferences, so it reacted more when things of interest were mailed to her.

Clicking a small button almost hidden near the loop for the string, a sparkling logo appeared in the sphere. Her eyes widened when she recognized

where it was from.

"Everyone! Nice to see you!"

The name jumped to mind. The girl wore her pale yellow hair in a thin tail down the back of her head, almost reaching her waist, curled distinctively.

Takahashi Minami the 6th.

"AKB0048 will be holding auditions for our 68th generation. Our goal is bring songs to people even under the entertainment ban. We sing with our

love, friendship, courage. We are the idols who come to see you!

"We'll be waiting to hear from you!"

The rest of the group appeared. They wore the standard uniform, a white blouse with slight cap sleeves. Blue lace and ties were finished off with a

deep red bow and various similar skirt styles and assorted shoes. Of course, every single one was unique.

"See you!"

"If you live on a planet outside of of the Protection Sphere, send us your application with encryption!"

The logo continued to hover, however, Chie no longer seemed to be focusing on that.

Her eyes focused on nothing.

Her dream was waiting to be made real, and she wasn't going to let another person's whims dictate it.
