Kirari sat down in front of Kuroki Akari and folded her hands. "What is it that you want?"
Kuroki Akari smiled. " I want you to join Black Wood, miss Tsukishima."
Part I
Kirari glared grimly at the director of Black Wood, and finally asked, after a few minutes of silence. "I decline." smiled brightly but the words that came from his mouth were full of distaste. "Miss Tsukishima, it is not I who wants you in my agency, it is the fans. It would do me great benefit if such a popular idol such as yourself were a part of my agency." Kirari stared silently at him for several slow seconds and then stood up; " , I have no interest of assisting you.". She walked towards the door, but as she was about to shut the door behind her, Kuroki called out "Since you declined, I will just have to make sure all of your friends are stripped of their careers." Kirari froze, and turned around. "Very well, I accept. But dont you dare hurt my friends."
A day later, Kirari received a call from Kuroki Akari, telling her that she will have to leave Muranishi. Kirari hesitates but remembers Kuroki's words the day before "Since you declined, I will just have to make sure all of your friends are stripped of their careers." . She agrees and goes to meet producer Muranishi to announce her news.
When she found Producer Muranishi, the whole agency was with him, Kumoi, Seji and the others; all except Hiroto and suddenly Kirari was grateful Hiroto was in New York. What would he have thought about her decision? Would he be mad? Annoyed? Would he care? Just thinking about him brought her to tears.
Seji noticed first. "Kirari-chan, is something wrong?" Everyone turned around and Kirari shook her head. She wiped away her tears and stood up straight, "I'm leaving this agency and going Black Wood. Thank you for all you have done for me." Without waiting for a response, she ran out the door, thinking for sure that they would all hate her now.
Part II
Kirari bit her lip to keep herself from crying. The heels that had requested her to wear during her lessons for walking, dress, ect. were hurting her feet so much! But she couldn't cry now, not in front of her "mentors as well as bodyguards".
A few hours later, when Kirari couldn't go on any longer, she collapsed on the floor and was brought to her room. Right, she thought, I would only have able to see papa on weekends when she doesnt have to work. I have to live here as well...
Once the guards left, she started crying and rubbing her bandaged feet. Oh, will she ever be able to get used to those shoes. Just then, her cell phone rang and the caller ID read, Hiroto. She quickly blew her nose, patted her face and bit her lip to stop herself from crying. She then pressed the green "call" button and Hiroto's voice blasted through. "BAKA! WHY DID YOU LEAVE? DID I TELL YOU TO WAIT FOR ME?!KIRARI!" Kirari flinched, but then, she remembered once again what Kuroki had said about her friends careers; and that also includes Hiroto's career as well and Hiroto was the one person whose job meant the most to her. So, Kirari gathered her courage, cleared her throat and replied clamly " ,first of all, I am not a idiot so may you please use more appropriate language. Second of all, I left because I wanted to transfer to Black Wood, nothing more. Lastly, I would prefer if you dont act so familiar with me, I am not the Kirari you used to know. That "Kirari " is gone; from now onwards I am Black Moon from the Black Wood agency." With that, she shut the phone and collapsed into tears and stayed like that until dinner was served.
