Chapter 1: A Star is born!
"Odori! Hurry up or you'll be late!"
"Y-yes! I'm coming down now!"
A short girl with a dark sailor uniform comes out of her room and went downstairs. Unfortunately, she sled all the way down to the floor.
"OUCH!" she stood up and rushed all the way to the dining room. "Odori, what's with all the ruckus? It's like 7 AM in the morning." her big sister, who seemed to be cooking for breakfast, scolded her with a spatula in her hand. "I-I'm sorry! I just sled and-" "Whatever. Just eat."
This girl named Odori sat down and noticed the noises on the TV. Looks like today is about Prism Shows again. Odori thought. "Hey, big sister." Odori faced her sister. Her sister replied with a 'hm'.
"You work as a patisserie in Prism Stone, right?"
"Right."
"Is it fun there?"
"uh-huh."
"Are there a lot of people of there?"
"Yeah. Since Utau works there, the store keeps getting lots and lots of people."
Odori started to eat her food and looked at the TV again. "You interested in Prism Shows?" her sister asked. "Mmm. Maybe." Odori answered as she continued to eat. "Sadly, you are far worse than any trainee in the Prism World." "HAH!? WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT!?" She almost spit her food she just chewed. "I saw you dance once. It was the worst dancing I had ever seen." Odori blushed like a tomato and shouted, "Y-YOU SAW EVERYTHING!?". "Yes. It was so bad that I was about to cry and pity you." Big sister, I hate you so much! She shouted in her thoughts. "UWAAHH! LOOK AT THE TIME! I BETTER GO NOW!" Odori drank her milk from the glass and left the house. She wore her loafers and shouted, "I'M GOING TO SCHOOL NOW!".
This is Odori Kuroki, a 14-year old middle school student, a crybaby, clumsy and probably the worst dancer in her town. She lives with her big sister, namely Kou Kuroki. Kou works in Prism Stone as a patisserie. She makes all kinds of desserts there. Also, in Prism Stone, there is a famous Prism Star. The Prism Star is actually Utau. Her last name was unknown which it left a mysterious side of her. Utau goes on stage and she will do a Prism Show. Prism Shows are shows that combine singing, dancing and figure skating. Of course, the greatest part of Prism Shows is the Prism Jump. Prism Jumps are jumps from the heart. So what you actually feel right now will show in your very own jump! But, only those who shine brightly can do these shows. Lately, Utau can do 3 perfect jumps in a row! She did Aurora Rising Finale, Fresh Fruits Basket Paradise and Golden Star Magic Complete jump! Now, let's go back to the story!
Odori ran as fast as she could to the bus station. Okay. The bus is leaving soon! I have to hurry up! She thought. She was running so fast that she had no idea that she bumped someone and crashed down. "Ouuuch!" She shouted. "I'm so sorry! Are you alright!?" Odori asked as she gave out her hand. "Eh? I'm fine. Thank you for asking though." The person she bumped said in a calm, relaxed voice and reached out Odori's hand. "Thank goodness. You're not hurt!" Odori said with a relief tone. "You. . . don't know me?" The girl asked. She had sparkling long blue hair and she dressed in a white dress. "Uhm. . ." Odori tried to recall but she can't. "I'm sorry. I don't know you. . .I'm actually outdated these days" She smiled like a jerk. "I see. That's good." The girl sighed. "I'm really sorry for bumping you! I was in a hurry, you see!" "Oh. I understand." "HAAAAA! I HAVE TO GO! SEE YOU!" Odori waved and left her.
Odori made it to the bus station. But there was one problem. The bus left. "No waaay!" Odori cried. I woke up late. She thought. Fell down from the stairs, bumped someone, missed the bus. . .nothing good has happened to me. "I'm the worst." She knelt on her knees and cried. Suddenly, someone gave Odori a hankie. She noticed this and looked up. It was the person she bumped a while ago. "Please don't cry." she said. Odori didn't say anything but instead she took the hankie and wiped her tears. "Thank you. What's your name?" Odori lit up a little. "I'm-"
"Oh my. Could it be. . .?"
"OMFG yes. It's her!"
"It's Utau!"
"No way! It's the Great Utau-sama!"
At first, Odori didn't understand. But, once she looked closely at her, Odori remembered the Prism Star she saw on TV. "Y-you are. . .Utau!" she shouted. Utau grabbed her and ran away with her. "W-wait! Where are we going!?" "No time to explain! Just follow me!" Before Odori could say anything more, the people were chasing them.
"Wh-why. . .why were they cha-*inhales*chasing you!?" Odori panted. "Don't you get it? I'm a Prism Star." Utau answered. "Anyways, where are we?" Odori looked around and noticed everything she saw were pink. Pink walls, pink decorations, and pink clothes (not all the clothes are pink). "Oh. This is Prism Stone."
"PRISM STONE!?"
"huh? yeah. Why? Is this your first time here?"
"Technically, yes."
"Really? From your hair accessories, you look like you bought them here?" Utau examined her pink ribbons from her hair.
"Oh, these? My sister gave them to me."
"I see."
All of a sudden, Odori heard a familiar voice, "Utau! I'm going to open the store now!" It was her sister's. Kou, Odori's sister, walked in and saw Odori. "Wha- ODORI!?" "ONEE-CHAN!?" "Eh? You guys know each other?" Utau asked as she bent her head. "Y-yeah. But actually, she's my sister. . ." Odori looked away as a sign of embarrassment. "Why aren't you in school!?" Kou shouted. "The bus left me, okay!? And this girl here brought me here!" she shouted back. "Utau! What is the meaning of this!?"
U: There were a lot of people so I dragged her here.
K: That doesn't make any sense. You dragged her here because there were a lot of people?
U: Yup.
K: I'm confused
O: I think because I shouted her name and then people heard it so. . .yeah
K: Now you're making sense. Anyways, GO TO SCHOOL, ODORI!
"Alright already!" As Odori was about to step outside of the store, Utau grabbed her. "Don't worry, Kou-chan. I'll take care of her." "Kou-chan?" Odori was about to laugh. Kou blushed like a boiled octopus. "St-still! She's going to school!" Kou demanded. "Kou-chan, do you know the contest today?" Utau smiled softly. "Eh? uhm. . .it's a contest for pairs, right?. . . WAIT! You don't mean. . ." "Yes, Kou-chan. . ." Utau held Odori's hand and raised her hand. "She'll be my partner!" she continued. "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEH!?" Kou and Odori shouted at the same time. "But why me!?" Odori asked with a panicked voice. "I believe you will become a great Prism Star. I can see the glow of the prism." Utau held her hand tight and smiled. Kou was there, trying to hold her laughter. "GRRR. ONEE-CHAN DON'T LAUGH!"
U: eh? what's up?
K: actually, Odori can't dance. Trust me.
O: UWAAAH! DON'T TELL HER THAT!
U: That's not a problem!
K & O: ha?
U: If she goes with the flow, her dancing skills will be sharp!
K: I don't think that's possible.
U: Trust me on this one! Please Kou-chan!
Utau pleaded with her whole heart. Kou thought about for a minute or two. She finally agreed on letting Odori join with Utau. "Don't come crying on me when you fail!" Kou smirked. "Of course I won't! I will try to win this time!" Odori's eyes literally sparkled. Utau and Kou noticed this. An egg was waiting outside the Prism Stone store. It had a crack. It was a sign for a new star. Odori and Utau went outside of the store and Odori asked, "Where's this audition?" "Gojasu?" The egg spoke. It rolled and followed Odori. Utau giggled a little and said, "It's close to your school." Odori stopped for a while. She tried to process and then. . .
"EEEEEEH!? WHAT IF I'LL GET SCOLDED FOR GOING TO SOME SILLY CONTEST AND NOT TO SCHOOL!?" she panicked.
"Chill. I said close not really beside your school." Utau giggled again. "By the way, do you know any Prism Show Dance?"
Odori tried to recall some dances and answered, "I know. . .uhm. . .Boy Meets Girl. . . You May Dream . .I think that's it."
Utau thought about the songs and snapped her fingers. "I got it! Let's dance Boy Meets Girl!"
"Is it alright?"
"I can't see why not, right!?"
"Right." Utau halted a taxi and it took them there to the audition spot. The egg that was supposed to follow Odori leaped to her open bag (she's clumsy so she sometimes forget her bag is open wwwwwww). "Here we are, Odori!" Odori looked around. She saw the huge building and when she went inside, it had a grand hallway. "Looks like we're on time, Odori-chan!" Utau smiled sweetly. She could only nod. Odori was too amazed. "Odori-chan, we're next." Utau seemed to be writing something on a book. She probably signed their selves up.
"wait. . .NEXT!?"
"yep. Next."
"But-but! I didn't practice the dance."
"That's okay. As long as you can feel the music, you'll be fine."
Odori was really worried. She doesn't want to be embarrassed for the rest of her life.
"UTAU AND ODORI KUROKI. PLEASE STEP INSIDE THE PRISM WORLD."
"Hai!" Utau shouted. She held Odori's hand and opened a door with a star on it.
"Welcome to the Prism World." A lovely woman said with a gentle smile on her face.
"Thank you, Meganee Akai. Let's work again today." Utau bowed.
Meganee Akai giggled and bowed as well. "Alright, Utau-chan."
Odori was so confused. Utau noticed this and said, "Odori-chan, this is Meganee Akai. She is in charge of the Prism Realm where all Prism Stars go and get changed."
"Ni-nice to meet you!" Odori bowed hesitantly.
"Nice to meet you, Odori-san. Can I have your Prism Stones?"
"Eh? I have none!" Odori panicked for a while.
Utau giggled at her and said, "Don't worry. I'll lend you some Prism Stones."
She opened her briefcase which contained hundreds of Prism Stones. Some were clearly ultra rare stones and some are the same clothes of the Prism Stars.
"Hm~ which is nice for Odori-chan? Hmm~~~ aha! I know!" Utau grabbed 5 stones from 3 different sections. She also grabbed 4 stones for herself. She gave the first five stones to Meganee Akai and said, "Here are for Odori-chan!" "Very well. Odori-chan, please stand right there." Meganee Akai pointed a spot where there is some sort of a platform. "A-Alright." Odori stood there. "Here we go!" Meganee Akai pressed a button and Odori's clothes transformed. Her clothes were from a sailor uniform to a white shirt with a dark blue jacket with stars imprinted on it, a yellow mini-skirt with a thin pink belt, green knee socks and yellow pumps. "Wow! It's so cute!" Odori was so amazed. "Not bad, Utau" Meganee Akai complimented Utau "You're up next, Utau." She pressed a button and Utau transformed. Utau's clothes turned into a midnight dress with tiny stars imprinted on it. She also has a white vest. And her shoes were long white boots. Her accessory was a silver pendant. "Utau-chan, that's. . ." Meganee Akai realized. "Yes. These were my first prism stones."
"We're ready to go!" Utau-chan smiled and a portal opened. They both entered and then, they were on-stage.
"Utau and her partner, Odori Kuroki." The voice announced to the whole crowd.
"It's Utau!"
"Wait. . . who is she!?"
"Who's Odori Kuroki? Is she new?"
"Oooooh! She must be awesome! I mean, Utau made her as her partner!"
The whole crowd was questioned. Odori suddenly felt a chill in her spine.
"I don't think I can do this, Utau."
"Don't worry!" She held Odori's hand. "Just feel the music and you'll be just fine. Believe in yourself."
"LET'S PRISM SHOW!"
Boy meets girl sorezore no Afureru omoi ni kirameki to

Boy meets Girl Ano koro wa Ikutsu mo no DOA wo NOKKU shita

"WHAT'S WITH THIS GIRL'S DANCE!?"
"SHE'S RUINING UTAU'S PERFORMANCE!"
"SHE SUCK AT DANCING!"
Odori felt really bad. "Utau, I told you I can't do it!"
"Just feel the music!" Utau continued to dance gracefully.
"Feel the music?" Odori closed her eyes as she continued to dance. She listened to it very carefully.
Odori's movements suddenly became smooth. She had no trouble dancing already.
"I can. . . I can dance properly now!"
Yoake made utatteta Anata ga tokui na SWEET LOVE SONG
Utau did a prism jump. "FRESH FRUITS BASKET PARADISE!"
Odori observed her as she danced.
'Amazing.' She thought. 'I wish I could do that too. She is so cool. Unlike me.'
Utau did another jump. "GOLDEN STAR MAGIC COMPLETE!"
The stage was filled with golden stars.
'Unlike me who is stupid and clumsy. But that is not going to stop me to be like her!'
The egg earlier popped out of its shell and a creature saw Odori. "Gojasu!" It flew and turned into a musical instrument. Odori flew and caught the instrument. It was a soprano recorder. "No way." Utau just danced but her eyes were on Odori.
"PRISM LIVE!" Odori played the soprano recorder and the screen behind the stage has the word "GORGEOUS" then changes to "PRISM LIVE".
"NO WAY! IT'S A PRISM LIVE!"
"SHE CAN DO IT TOO!?"
The whole crowd cheered for Odori. They were fascinated at the Prism Live.
Odori did a jump. "STARDUST FIRE SHOWER. . ." She was in a meteor shower, the meteors were burning and she landed perfectly. "EVOLUTION!" The stage turned from pink to orange. The crowd was amazed.
"I'm not gonna lose to you!" Utau jumped. She was sliding down a piano keyboard. "DO-RE-MI-FA-SO SLIDER!" She winked.
'No way.' Utau almost stopped. "I didn't make the final jump of that!?'
Odori jumped. "Number two!" Odori was in a prism, trapped. "I was always behind others. No one came for me. Huh? What's this light?" She cracked out of the prism and wings were behind her. "Welcome the new me! ETERNAL BIG BANG. . . BEAUTIFUL BIRTH! FINALE!" The stage was filled with butterflies. "Odori. . . has this much potential!?" Utau couldn't believe it.
Utau made another jump. "AURORA RISING FINALE!" The stage couldn't take Odori's jumps so it changed into a light blue stage with auroras beside Utau. "Amazing!" Odori's eyes were filled with excitement.
"I'm not done yet!" Odori played the soprano recorder once more. "Number three!" Odori's wings flew her above. She drew a star and shouted, "GOOO!" "SHINING! FUTURE! STAR! REVOLUTION!" She punched out the star and the whole stage was filled with silver stars.
That ended their performance.
The whole crowd was silent. They were so speechless of Odori's 3 perfect jump chain. Odori and Utau bowed together and left the stage. Everyone cheered for them. "Prism Live plus perfect prism jumps. . . interesting. . ." a man with light blue hair said and walked away from the audience's seat.
"UTAU AND ODORI KUROKI: 10, 785 KARATS! THEY ARE AT THE 1ST PLACE RIGHT NOW!"
In the end, Utau and Odori won. Each of them earned the outfit of Rizumu Amamiya. "We did it, Utau!" Odori smiled. "Yeah." Utau smiled back.
At last, Odori's day was filled with excitement and happiness!
