Prologue: Grades and A newcomer

A blonde hair middle aged man sighed, he threw the file he was holding on the table. In front of him is a blonde hair boy around the age of 15, he looked down, his bangs covering his eyes. "Syo..." The middle aged man called him. "Yes, otou-san?" 'Syo' looked up to face his father. "You want to enroll in Saotome Gakuen right?" The man asked. Syo nodded. "How are you suppose to enter Saotome Gakuen with this grades?" Syo took a big gulp.

"Gomen, I-I'll try my best for the next exam." "Forget about it." "Eh?" Syo's father shook his head. "I'm going to hire a tutor for you." Syo's eyes widen. "B-b-but..." "No buts its an order." His father said sternly. "Honey, don't be so tough on him." A middle aged woman entered the living room. She was Syo's mother, she had blue orbs and wavy brown hair. "Okaa-san is right 'tou-san, you shouldn't be tough towards onii-chan." An exact replica of Syo then entered the room. He was slightly taller than Syo and his hair was neatly combed.

"I'm still going to hire a tutor." He said. Syo just sigh, "Fine..." "Good, I'll be expecting good grades from now on." Syo took the file and left the living room. "Don't go sulking in your room, Syo! Come back down for dinner! You hear me?" Mrs Kurusu shouted from the kitchen. "Yes mom, sheesh there's no need to shout." Syo said and headed upstairs to his room.

He sat down on his desk chair and fire up his laptop. He type out a website in the search engine. 'Saotome Academy registration' was what it said. "A few more weeks huh." Syo said out loud. He wanted to enroll in Saotome Academy so badly. It was an Academy for teens with musical talent. There is two courses - the idol course and the composer course.

Syo was aiming for the idol course. Why? Well, probably because he had dreamed about it since young. At the age of 7, he was diagnosed with a heart problem. The doctors said he couldn't live until 10 but they were wrong. He managed to survive until 12. Since then he held a dream that he will make people smile, be them ill or broken he will try his best. And that was when he found out about idols. He was amaze by their passion and the aura they brought.

The idols always made their fans smile. He wanted to be an idol. To make them smile and enjoy their lifes. And that is why he wanted to enroll in Saotome Academy. Those who graduate in Saotome Academy could debut in Shining Agency and be a real idol. But, life isn't always that easy. Syo like any other teen had a problem. And that problem is his 'excellent' grades. Syo sigh, it was quite often he failed one or two subjects. But these one or two failed subjects is the cause of him to delay taking the Saotome Academy freshmen exams.

He can't take the exams with these grades! He could fail! And that would be so embarrassing. Especially since his twin younger brother, Kaoru is a top student in their school. That will shame their family name. And Syo didn't like that one bit. The door of his room being knocked snap him of his daze. Syo close his laptop and went to open the door. "Dinner is already, onii-chan." Kaoru said when Syo open the door.

Kaoru was smiling from ear-to-ear. For some people it might a normal smile because he was happy or some sort. But to Syo he knew that smile too well. "Don't give me that smile Kaoru. I know what you're thinking?" Kaoru pouts. "Eh you know what I'm thinking? But how do you know what I'm thinking?" Syo puts on an annoyed face. He flick his brother's forehead. "Ittai! What was that for?" Kaoru's pout turns into a frown as he cover his already red forehead. "That my ototo-kun is for being a dumb head when you are a genius." Syo said as he exited his room and headed downstairs.

"Hey, what do you mean? Onii-chan! I demand explanation!" Kaoru shouted from upstairs. "Kaoru! Come downstairs young man." Mrs Kurusu shouted from the dining room. Kaoru's face turn into a scared one. 'Eek!' He thought. He then puffed his cheeks. 'Damn you onii-chan, I'm going to get you back for this!' Kaoru curse in his mind as he ran downstairs

In a place somewhere in Tokyo, a man in a lab coat was busy building something in his 'workshop'. The 'workshop' was full with gadgets, tools and wires connecting various computers. On the desks is blueprints with different entitled projects. The sound of a screw being tightened could be heard all across the 'workshop'.

The man panted and wipe away the sweat on his forehead. "Just a little bit more..." He said. He walked to the computer nearest to his newest 'project'. He clicked on a few things on the computer and the computer started uploading files. 'Upload complete' a message popped out. The 'project' opened his eyes. "Where. Am. I?" The words came out from his mouth one by one.

"Hello there young android. This is your new home." The man said. "Uploading. Data. Your. Name. Is. Unknown." The 'project' said. The man smile. "My child, you can call me hakase (professor)." "Ha. Ka. Se?" The 'project' blurted out. Instead of a question, it turn out to be a statement. "Now, what should I call you?" The man said.

He continue talking to his new creation without noticing a new message that pop out on his computer. 'Project's completion: 82%. Bug detected. Possibility of project shutting down completely: 75%. Project isn't a complete success. Project labeled under: Artificial Intelligence.'
