Chapter 2: Enter the Generation of Miracles!

"So, why is everyone here?"

It was one week after Kagami's recording at IRO Music Corporation. This time, Kuroko and Kagami are there again for Kuroko's recording. But standing in front of them, at the IRO Music Corporation's lobby, was Kiseki no Sedai.

"Tetsuya, I see that the leech is still hanging around you." Akashi ignored Kuroko's question with an insult at Kagami.

"Hey! Who are you calling a leech? And I'm only here to watch him suffer after what he put me through last week!"

"No one asked you to tell us that." Murasakibara commented while munching on barbecue-flavored chips.

"Why are you all here?" Kuroko asked again before a fight broke out.

"Well, it's like this…"

one week ago…

"EHHHHH? Kuroko-chii! And Kagami-chii too! What are you two doing here?"

In front of the two was Kise Ryouta, who is still as eye-catching as ever. In fact, even more so with his loud exclamation just seconds ago.

"Ah, Kise-kun. Good morning."

"Kuroko-chii! ~" Kise sang as he pulled Kuroko into a hug. "Did you come here to find me? How did you know that I was coming here today?"

"I didn't know that. Kagami-kun and I came here to record his song today."

"Eh?" Kise had a dumbfounded look on his face. "EHHHHHHHHHH? Kagami-chii, you are a singer? Why didn't I know that? You didn't even mention it once even after knowing that I'm a model! Actually, you don't even look like someone who sings! When did this happen? EHHHHHHH? How did Kuroko-chii know?"

A vein popped from Kagami's forehead. "SHUT UP! YOU'RE TOO LOUD!"

"Says the man who is louder." Kagami glared at Kuroko. "Kise-kun, please calm down. Kagami-kun isn't a singer."

"Eh? Then what did you mean before?"

"A random dude just wanted me to join something. And this guy agreed for me too when I wasn't paying attention." Kagami pointed at Kuroko.

"Huh?"

"What Kagami-kun meant was, a person named Mouni Ren from this company wanted us to participate in a programme where normal people get to publish their own singles. I agreed for us since it seemed interesting. We came here today to record Kagami-kun's song."

"I see… Eh? Kuroko-chii is going to sing too? Why only Kagami-chii then? Eh?"

"There wasn't enough time, so I'll be recording on another day."

"I see…" A glint seemed to appear in Kise's eyes. "Well, I have an appointment to rush to. Nice seeing you, Kuroko-chii! And Kagami-chii too!" He sang as he jogged into the building.

"Don't call me 'Kagami-chii'!" Kagami called after Kise, and grumbled, "and why does it sound like I'm an afterthought?"

"I didn't realize that Kagami-kun was concerned about Kise-kun's thoughts of him. Also, it doesn't only sound like you are an afterthought. You ARE an afterthought."

"Are you trying to pick a fight?"

"I have no intention of getting beaten up. Let's hurry to school. Coach wanted to meet us at 1pm."

with Kise, after his appointment

Kise ran to the bathroom and dialed someone on his phone. "Akashi-chii! There something important I need to let you know!"

"Ryouta, this better be very important. I was in the middle of a shoji match."

Kise gulped at the thought of the punishment he would get later. "It's about Kuroko-chii! He's going to sing! I mean, he is going to record a single!"

"Usual place in 5 minutes." Kise stared at his phone after Akashi cut the line. 5 minutes. What?

after explaining to Akashi, and the rest of KNS who were there for unknown reasons

"Heh, Kuro-chin's singing. I want to hear it too." A lad with a height of over 2meters said, while sucking on a lollipop.

"Hmph. It's a waste of time. I would expect him to use the time to practice shooting instead. On the side note, today's lucky item is a toy duck." The green-haired guy pushed up his spectacles, as if to emphasize his point."

"Aomine-chii, don't you have anything to say about this?" Kise directed it at the tanned boy who was spinning a basketball on top of his finger.

"Har? Why would I? What Tetsu want to do with his new light is none on my business."

He's sulking. I know he is. Kise and Midorima thought in unison.

"Th-then, what about Akashi-chii? What should we do about this?" Kise asked their previous captain.

"Atsushi, Daiki, Shintaro, Ryouta." All four turn their heads to Akashi. "We'll be participating in this programme as well."

All four of them stared at him blankly. After a while, Murasakibara finally broke them out of their shock by agreeing to it with a "sure".

Kise was the first to respond after him. "Well, I don't really mind. My manger will most likely agree too, since it will increase my popularity."

Midorima pushed up his spectacles again. "If it's Akashi's decision, I'll go with it."

They then proceeded to stare at Aomine expectantly.

"Fine, I'll do it. But only because this is Akashi's decision, alright? It's not like I want to see Tetsu or hear his singing or anything like that."

He just exposed his inner thoughts. Kise sweat dropped at this.

"Well then, since everyone is agreeable to this. Ryouta."

"Yes!"

"We'll leave the necessary arrangements to you. That's it for today. Everyone's dismissed." Without another word, the captain with heterochromia stalked off.

back to present time

"…and I managed to sign us all up by pulling some strings~" Kise said cheerfully.

"I see. Let's go up then. We are going to be late." Kuroko calmly headed to the elevator, ahead of the group. "Kagami-kun, please come back to earth." He added as Kagami stayed rooted to his spot even as everyone else moved.

"Huh? Hey! Wait!"

"Close the door." Akashi ordered, with no plans on waiting for Kagami.

"Hai…" Kise, who was unfortunately closest to the buttons in the lift, closed the door on Kagami.

Sorry, Kagami-chii, but I can't defy Akashi-chii. He mentally apologized to Kagami.

-To be Continued-


Done! Sorry for not putting a character song in this chapter. But I thought it was an appropriate place to end this chapter. Well, everyone chapter will have one or two character songs after this, depending on how it goes.

Anyway, I'm wondering if I should just make Kuroko's songs the last. Since it is the most anticipated by everyone (Kiseki no Sedai and Kagami I meant). So I'll like some reviews! Should I let Kuroko sing next chapter, or keep it till the end?

Also, once again, thank you very much to those who reviewed, favourited or followed this story. I'm really encouraged by all of you.
