It was a relatively normal day for the members of STARISH and their lovely composer Nanami Haruka. Everyone was rehearsing together in the music room with the grand piano. They ran through different songs picking the best routines, lyrics, and voices for their songs. All of the singers worked out different vocals and sang wholeheartedly. Haruka played the notes rhythmically while calling out to different members of the group. It was, all in all, a normal day for the young group of idols. For now…
"Okay let's try that line one more time. Syo-kun, could you sing this next part for me?" The young composer, Haruka, kindly asked the blonde boy.
"Sure thing Nanami," Syo replied flashing the composer his signature grin. No one noticed, but when Haruka smiled back a light baby pink blush appeared on his cheeks. Although, it disappeared as fast as it had crawled to his cheeks.
"Oh and Shinomiya-san, please sing the background vocals for the line two down from Syo's line," Haruka sweetly asked the boy.
"Okay Haru-chan!" The ecstatic teen answered happily to the composer.
"Alright let's all take it from the top! Keep up the good pace everyone," chirped the composer to the member of STARISH.
Steadily, the group worked through their songs for the most part of the day. As evening was approaching, Haruka stood up happily.
"Thank you everyone! I think that is enough for today," exclaimed the rather happy composer.
Everyone was getting ready to leave and go about their business for the rest of the day when Otoya started to speak.
"What a calming day for once….." Itokki Otoya exclaimed to his friends.
They all agreed. For once the group has been having some peace and quiet. After all the commotion from the UtaPri, it was nice to just hang around like a group again. They finally had some more free time, so they gladly spent it together as a group and with Haruka.
"It feels somewhat uneasy," Cecil pondered aloud.
No sooner had the member of STARISH said that, that a loud bang erupted and everyone turned their heads towards the noise. Standing in the door laughing menacingly was none other than…. Shining Saotome! He did a prance and turn into the room to look at the kids staring at him.
"Fufufufufu, I see you are all very laid back, much laid back indeed," The manager shrieked while a devious smirk spread across his face.
The singers and composer felt their skin crawl as the devious smile widened on the manager's face. The too happy look on his face made the group shiver in fear and unexpected jitters.
"This is definitely a good mood you all have going on here…" the manager of Shining Company murmured almost inaudible to the teenagers in the music room.
Finally, Tokiya spoke up, "Well were just rehearsing our songs. The past few days have been pretty uneventful for us. Anyways, what would you like from us today?"
The suspicion in Tokiya's voice made the group feel very uneasy. They didn't know what menacing and manipulating plot the director would throw them into this time. With any luck, the group wouldn't end up halfway across the world this time around.
"I just thought," he paused and smirked then continued, "You all need a LONG vacation."
No such luck for the group of teenagers. Another plot was about to unfold and they didn't know what would happen. Syo and Haruka had bewildered looks on their faces as they were not really sure what was happening. Even the more composed members of STARISH had a look of shock and surprise spread across their faces. The first to gain back his composure was Hijirikawa as he put on a levelheaded expression.
He spoke with a cool and monotone voice,"Director in all due respect I don't think we should be taking time off from our…"
Before he could finish what he was saying, the director suddenly cut him off, "No,no,no, no complaining from any of you. I already planned your flight and prepared your bags. Of course Miss. Nanami will be attending as well. In fact, I believe your flight leaves in an hour gentleman's and lady. Quick! Don't want to be late."
Before any of them could protest, all of the teenagers were escorted out of the building into a black limo that was waiting out front. They were all forcefully escorted into the sleek limo and reluctantly sat down.
"No point in arguing with that man," Jinguji exasperated with the antics of their manager spoke.
Everyone had to agree with that. Once that man mad up his mind no one could stop him. They all hung their heads in defeat as they awaited what crazy plan he had in store for STARISH.
"This is crazy. How can he do this when we need to rehearse," murmured Hijirikawa unhappily to the group.
"It won't be that bad. We can have lots of fun. Right, Syo-chan?" Exclaimed the very optimistic Natsuki with a wide smile plastered across his face.
"hn" was the simple answer Natsuki received from the short boy.
As if something dawned on her, Haruka jolted her head forward and spoke up, "Ehhh? Where are we even going?"
The members of STARISH finally realized the truth in what she spoke. They all realized that they didn't even know where Saotome was sending them. For all they knew they could be going to Antarctica or a tropical rainforest. They all mentally slapped themselves for not asking this simple question. But an even better thought emerged from all their heads. This trip could be a big turning point in their friendships and could change the harmony of STARISH. This notion could potentially pit the singers against one another. The one thing they were all thinking was: "I will win over Haruka on this trip." Even so, no one's burning desire was any hotter, any stronger, or any more passionate than our adorable blonde singer Kurusu Syo.
