"Akarin~~!" -The sound of children shouting out the name was heard as the sight of a purple eyed girl with red hair and two buns on the sides of her head was seen standing up in front of the audience as she called out to them-

Akarin: Hii~~ Yuru Yuri is about to star- -Before she got to finish her sentence, the innocent house background behind her would break apart like paper as the sight of a man with black hair and a streak of blue hair lining down to his head was seen climbing out of the screen- Eh!?

Man: Hold up! This ain't your show! This is my show!

Akarin: But this is Yuru-

Man: I'm not a fan of lesbians!

Akarin: B-But I'm- ah! -The man would push Akari aside and got up close to the screen with a big grin on his face-

Man: Hey! To y'all reading or watching this in your head! Y'all up for a huge roller coaster ride!

-/ This is a separate continuation of Love Live! Super Shine!, some scenes may be confusing and misleading as there will be a lot of references from both Super Shine and Great Shine. /-

-In a house, the sight of long brown haired girl sitting on bed was seen with a silver haired girl with yellow eyes as the girls were Imai Lisa and Minato Yukina as they were hanging out in Lisa's room-

Yukina: How goes the costumes?

Lisa: I got the design for them~ But I can't start until we can at least get a seat in the performance and the only one who will accept the people that will be taking the seats is...

Yukina: I know...It's him..

Lisa: Yukina.. I don't wanna be the bad guy here or anything but I want to know, whats your deal with him anyway? Is he like your ex-boyfriend or something?

Yukina: Him? My ex-boyfriend? Please, Lisa. I'm not that shallow to go for men like him.

Lisa: R-Right.. But still, you guys talk and act around each other like you know each other well.

Yukina: I'm sorry but I don't want to talk about him.

Lisa: Hmm.. Well, if you say so. -She said as she would grab onto the remote that was on her bed and turn on the TV and it was right on the channel that was showing a Live card fight match- Oh? It's that popular card game that everyone's playing.

Yukina: What?

Lisa: Vanguard, I think? I don't know, I know that Hina plays the game too.

Yukina: Sayo's sister?

Lisa: Yup, because a certain person she likes is playing the game too.

Yukina: And who might that be?

Lisa: Your answer's right there, my dear Yukina~

-The song "Purple God" from the Battle Spirits Burning Soul original soundtrack was heard playing in the background of the battle as Yukina's eyes widened from surprise from hearing the song as she would then quickly turn her attention to the TV and she would frown upon the sight of Shirogane Shirata seen on television with the traditional orchestral japanese music that was being played as Shirata was playing a match against Nishikino Maki-

Lisa: Oh! It's her! Nishikino Maki!

Yukina: Ah, the girl from µ's and Soul-2-Cry.

Lisa: To think that Shirogane-kun was going up against her, I wonder if he can win.

Yukina: He will win. -She spoke softly-

Lisa: Eh? What did you say?

Yukina: N-Nothing, I didn't say anything..

Lisa: R-Right... -The two would then focus at the match as Maki had ended her turn after striding Ascend Grave Dragon while Shirata had G Guarded and took most of the damage as he was at four damage while Maki was at three-

-In the match-

Maki: To think that you'd join up the Trial matches, I'm just surprised that you even play this game.

Shirata: Oh, well, I had a lot of free time when there are no concerts and bands coming up to compete for the first rank, so I made time to play this.

Maki: You're just full of surprises, aren't you? -She said with a smirk on her face as she abruptly showed Shirata that she had ten cards in hand and her Vanguard was Dragonic Blademaster "Kouen", the flame dragon roared at the smaller blue dragon in front of it as it as sitting on the floor with its sword out- But a Nubatama deck, huh? I've never seen such a build.. -She spoke to herself as she stared at the Grade 3 unit in front of her-

Shirata: Stand and draw! Blazing Demonic Stealth Dragon, Shiranui "Zanki"'s skill, soul blast 1, at the beginning step of my ride phase, I draw a card from my deck and all fighters much call a unit from their hand.

Maki: Force superior calling?! That's nothing like Nubatama!

Shirata: Hehe~ I'll show ye how strong these guys really are! Shoukan!(Translate: Summon) Stealth Beast, Chigasumi!

Maki: Call, Dragon Knight, Nehalem. Nehalem's skill activates! I retire one of your back-

Shirata: You can't do that.

Maki: Huh?!

Shirata: Shiranui "Zanki"'s effect, all of my opponent cannot activate their "AUTO" abilities when forced called by this unit's effect. Now, my turn to show you how the dark dragons work their magic unlike your petty flames, tomato girl! Stride Generation! Evil-eye Vidya Emperor, Shiranui "Rinne"! -The sight of a tall slimmed blue dragon with six arms were seen standing before Kouen and Maki as the beast stared at the two, giving them the chiils-

Maki: I've got a bad feeling about this..

Shirata: "Zanki"'s stride skill! Dominate! Nehalem! -The dragon knight's eyes glowed red as it then turned back and faced a grade 0 unit that was behind Kouen and destroyed the unit-

Maki: Sadegh!

Shirata: You've just lost a key card that supports your flames, Maki-chan~ Now it's my time to show off! Summon! Stealth Beast, Meimoudanuki! I activate Meimoudanuki's skill, I bind the top two cards of my deck as face down. Summon! Magatsu Gale, Gale's skill, he gets +6000 power and I draw a card. Shiranui "Rinne"'s skill, you choose two cards from your hand and call them!

Maki: More forced calling?! Tsk! Now this is a pain. -She placed Armoured Dragon Knight and Lizard Soldier, Raopia onto her field-

Shirata: Both of them gets +5000 power and I dominate them! Each will attack your Vanguard, one at a time! And, Rinne's Generation Break 3! All of my Dominated Unit gets +10000 power and an extra critical!

Maki: Crap! Guard! -She placed a grade 1 and intercepted with Nehalem-

Shirata: Meimoudanuki's skill, I choose a card from my bind zone and soul charge it, and it gets +5000 power, next! Armoured Dragon Knight attacks! Skill activates, he gets +3000 power!

Maki: N-No guard! -She took two damage and was at her fourth damage as there were no triggers revealed-

Shirata: Shiranui "Rinne" attacks!

Maki: Wyvern Guard, Barri! Perfect guard! -She protected herself but Shirata drew out two criticals from his deck and gave all the effects to both sides of his rear-guards- Tsk!

Shirata: Magatsu Gale attacks your Vanguard!

Maki: G-Guard! -She placed a 15000 shield guardian and protected herself-

Shirata: Magatsu Gale's skill, he goes into the soul and I choose a rear-guard and return it to my hand, come back to me, Dreadmaster! -He returned a grade one that had boosted his Vanguard from the first battle- Next up! Chigasumi attacks! Chigasumi's skill activates! -He discarded a card from his hand- He gets an extra +15000 power! That's a total of 46000 power!

Maki: -She looked at her hand that had only three cards left as she noticed she didn't have enough cards to protect herself- N-No guard.. -She took the damage as she lost the battle-

-Back in Lisa's room-

Lisa: As expected of Yukina, you knew he was going to win, eh?

Yukina: D-Don't be ridiculous, I did not say such a thing..

Lisa: Sure you didn't~ But I like Shirogane-kun's deck, it looks pretty cool.

Yukina: It's his style after all.

Lisa: His style? He likes ninjas?

Yukina: Yes... -After realising for a brief second that she was talking about Shirata, the girl blushed and turned away from Lisa- N-No he does not..

Lisa: Aww~ Maybe I should learn to play the game with him.

Yukina: What? Why?

Lisa: Because it looked interesting and because I've taken a liking for him.

Yukina: Huh?! D-Don't tell me that you're actually saying that you like him?

Lisa: I guess? I mean, he's funny and he's actually really nice.

Yukina: Did you not recall our showcase in his studio? He dejected us.

Lisa: It wasn't us that he complained about...It was actually you..

Yukina:... I don't understand, why does he always aim for me?!

Lisa: This could be a crush thing or something..

Yukina: Huh? What do you mean by that?

Lisa: I was told that when boys tend to bully a certain girl a lot by teasing her and making her angry and stuff, it means that he likes her.

Yukina: Lisa...

Lisa: Hmm?

Yukina: You're thinking too much, there's no way that he is interested in me and I do not believe that he is the type that will mock girls and mess with them.

Lisa: Well, I guess that's true but still, what are the odds? You two do look pretty good together.

Yukina: -She blushed as her eyes widened as she would then look away- We do not..

Lisa: Then what would you do if someone were to take him away?

Yukina: Someone as in?

Lisa: -She scoot over closely to Yukina from behind and would whisper into her ear softly- Mitake Ran. -Lisa said as there was no reaction nor response from Yukina- Oh? Nothing, huh? What about Takagaki Kaede? -No response from her once again- Seriously? Even with Takagaki-san, you won't even flinch? Then what if I dated him? -Yukina then slowly turned to Lisa and stared at her-

Yukina: Traitor..

Lisa: Ah... H-Hypothetically of course... But what about Rinko or Sayo? They both think he's nice too~

Yukina: Did they say they like him?

Lisa: -She nodded with a smile- Yup.

Yukina: I will disband this band.

Lisa: W-Wait don't! I was just telling you that everyone in the group thinks of him as an honest and nice Senpai, if you can't see that then I won't understand or know why you hate him so much..

Yukina: Fine, I'll tell you why. But keep it to yourself, okay? And please don't tell anyone.

Lisa: I promise.

Yukina: Shirogane and I...Um... H-He was my teacher.

Lisa: Teacher?

Yukina: He is the reason why I sing till this very day.

Lisa: Is there a reason?

Yukina: When I was a little girl, I saw him singing in front of many other children in the park and his voice was...

Lisa: Horrible?

Yukina: No! It was phenomenal.. It was the greatest thing ever.

Lisa: And you fell for him because of that?

Yukina: N-No! I wanted to sing just like him but I took an interest to rock music, so I began learning on my own and we became distant soon after that. After I was scouted by a few people, he has been neglecting me ever since..

Lisa:...Yukina..

Yukina: What is it?

Lisa: Are you dense?

Yukina: Huh?

Lisa: You basically stole from him!

Yukina: What are you saying?

Lisa: You went up to him and learned from him! FOR FREE! After you learned what you wanted to know, you went out to the real world and sang without asking him first and you just left him there! You basically used him!

Yukina: N-Now that I think about it..I-I guess you're right..

Lisa: You guess?! Y-Yukina, you gotta make up with him!

Yukina: Huh? Why?

Lisa: If he won't let Roselia have a seat in the Comet Performance next month, we'll never rise from being just a regular band! The Comet Performance is the only way for Roselia to rise! Don't do this for yourself or me! Do this for him and the band! I know that Shirogane-kun may have been a little hard on you but that was entirely your fault!

Yukina: Lisa..

Lisa: And if you don't make up with him, I won't be your friend anymore~

Yukina: That will be a problem. Alright, I'll head out and find him then.

Lisa: If you need help, just ring me~

Yukina: I will. -She said as she got up and left Lisa's house as she ran to the arena stadium that was in the city to find Shirata-

-In the arena stadium that Shirata was in, the sight of a mint hair coloured girl was seen sitting down on a chair with an excited expression was seen as the girl was Hikawa Hina, Sayo's younger sister. Shirata entered the room only to find her waiting for him inside-

Shirata: Sayo-chan?

Hina: Hi!

Shirata: What's up? Why are you here?

Hina: I came to visit~

Shirata: Ye don't say?

Hina: That was a great match!

Shirata: Haha! Thanks, so what's up with you?

Hina: I came to pick you up~

Shirata: Wow, a high school girlfriend that drove around the town to pick up her 28 year old boyfriend who knows how to drive, sweet, I feel like a Prince~

Hina: Hahaha! -She laughed- No silly~ I came with Kaede-san~

Shirata: You came with her? But where is she?

Hina: -She pointed at the door to see the door opening as Kaede entered Shirata's dressing room with a plastic cup in her hand as Kaede's face was slightly red- She's right there.

Shirata: K-Kaede-san?

Kaede: Hmm? Ah, Shinobi-kun~

Shirata: What? Drunk already? How many did you have?

Kaede: One.

Hina: I think that's her twelfth.

Shirata: What?! You kept count?!

Hina: Well.. She had two drinks in here and went out for more after that. Then she was gone until you came back.

Shirata: So in other words, you don't actually know how many drinks she had?

Hina: Nope~

Shirata: Fantastic. Kaede-san, let's send you back home, okay?

Kaede: Then... Perhaps we can...Enjoy ourselves with a little movie?

Shirata: A movie? OH! I know! Let's watch a documentary about space and then you'll be able to relax~

Kaede: Sounds...Pleasing.

Hina: Eh?! A documentary, really?

Shirata: Shh! We're not going to watch a documentary! -He whispered to Hina-

Hina: Will we be watching a drama or maybe an anime movie?! -She whispered and asked back-

Shirata: I'll decide when we get back, come on. -He said as he grabbed Kaede's cup and drank whats left of the alcohol inside as he would blink a few times- Whoa..What was in that?

Kaede: A shot of Vodka with a little whisky and a pinch of red wine~

Shirata: Tasted like spicy ass to me, come on, Drunky. -He said as Hina laughed while Shirata grab hold onto Kaede and princess carried her out of the room and headed down to the carpark with Hina following beside him. From the back-way, Yukina took the back door and entered the stadium car park as she saw Shirata with Kaede and Hina-

Yukina: Hina-san? Why is she with him along with Takagaki-san..? -She walked over to the group to speak to them as Shirata then noticed Yukina- S-Shirogane..

Shirata: Ah crap, look, I'm sorry but I must go.

Hina: Hi, Yukina-san! -She waved from the inside of the car as she was sitting at the back with Kaede and was trying to put on Kaede's seat-belt for her-

Yukina: H-Hello, just what are you doing?

Shirata: Getting the hell outta here.

Yukina: Huh? I thought you were just done with your match or something?

Shirata: Oh, you came to cheer for Maki-chan? It was cool, wasn't it?

Yukina: N-No, I..

Shirata: Minato-san, I'm sorry, but I need to go. -He said as he was trying his best to avoid conversing with Yukina until the girl lost her patience-

Yukina: Let me speak with you for a moment, please! -She shouted for the first time, which caught everyone except Kaede by surprise as Kaede was fast asleep in the car, Shirata turned to Yukina and sighed softly as he looked at the short silver haired girl-

Shirata: What?

Yukina: I...I just wanted to say that...I...I'm sorry..

Shirata: Hmm?

Yukina: I'm sorry for using you in the past... And even now..I'm really sorry for using your techniques of your music for myself to get popular and not ask for your permission.. I'm sorry that I stole from- -Before she could finish her sentence, she was embraced with a warm hug by Shirata as she was caught by surprise- Eh? S-Shirogane...-San...?

Shirata: -He then let go of her and sat down on his car seat and looked at Yukina- Minato-san,. I hope you understand that I cannot help you..

Yukina: Eh?

Shirata: Once you stepped into the outside world of the music industry, there's no turning back.

Yukina: W-What are you saying..?

Shirata: I will not be your teacher again..

Yukina: Huh?

Shirata: What?

Yukina: I-I'm not asking to be your student again..

Shirata: You weren't? Oh, I'm sorry, I just assumed...

Yukina: -She flicked Shirata's forehead lightly as she would then let out a sigh and smile at him- You're still the same Sensei, huh? Always assuming things before hand assume that you're right. You should learn a few things about "trust".

Shirata: Oh, I knew what was the conversation about, I was actually just messing with you because I knew you came to apologise.

Yukina: Eh? W-What do you mean by that?

-Shirata took out his phone and showed her the text that was sent by Lisa-

"Yukina is on her way to see you! She's going to apologise to ya!" - Lisa

"What? What for?" - Shirata

"She felt bad for taking away your teachings without your permission, so she ran out to see you!" - Lisa

"I see, well then, thank you very much about the info. Now if you will excuse me, I'm going to have a little fun with her." - Shirata

"Please go easy on her." - Lisa

"Sure thing, Babe~" - Shirata

"Oh, naughty~ Hehe!" - Lisa

-Yukina got frustrated as she would then punch Shirata's chest-

Yukina: Idiot... I won't allow you to flirt with Lisa.

Shirata: That's what you're paying attention to?!

-Minutes later, Shirata drove back to his apartment with Kaede, Hina and Yukina in the car-

"Now that I think about it, I have never been to his apartment before.." -Yukina thought to herself in the car as she was in the front seat-

In Shirata's harem, he has a total of 14 girls that are attracted to him, but that is not all! The harem of 14 girls is only half of how many there are in total, there are still many more that will be revealed and added on into his harem.
