Utau walked into a dark unnerving room. In front of her stood a desk at which seated her manager, Yukari Sanjou. The older woman smiled sadistically at the girl who did not so much as flinch. "Did you complete your task Utau?"
"...Yes." she answered solemnly.
Flashback:
"Utau...I've got a task I need you to complete." Yukari said as Utau prepared for one of her concerts. "According to my sources--"
"Ikuto." Utau interrupted. Yukari simply smirked.
"Yes, him. Apparently the Ace chair girl has left the Guardians...I want you to persuade her to join Easter."
"Why on Earth would we need her?" Utau turned to her manager in surprise. Yukari shook her head as if to say, 'How can you be so naive?' She chuckled slightly. "I mean she can't even Character Transform. As far as I know she can only Character Change and all her attacks are pretty useless."
"Think about it, Utau. A former Guardian. Someone who knows all their secrets and weaknesses. We could use someone like that. I want you to recruit her." The older woman persisted.
"Ok...but why me? Personally I mean."
"I've heard she's a fan of yours. She'll surely join if you ask her." she explained. Utau finished her hair, taking a quick look in the mirror, she stood with her back to Yukari.
"And if she doesn't?" The auburn haired woman smirked.
"Not optional."
End Flashback:
"Good work, Utau. Don't look so glum though. You'll get wrinkles." Sanjou-san chuckled. Utau meerely rolled her eyes.
"Hn. The girl seemed pretty doubtful. It's possible she won't join." she stated getting ready to exit the dreary office. "What do you plan to do then?"
"Hmph. If she declines we'll just have to approach the situation...differently." she said in an evil manner. Not wanting to know what that meant, Utau left the room and Yukari to her evil thoughts.
With Yaya:
"Yaya-chan..." Pepe whined trying to pull her away from an accessory shop window. It was Saturday so they head decided to do some window shopping. Yaya to clear her head, and Pepe to give her a chance to talk things over with Yaya. Or so she thought. "Yaya-chan! You're not listening to me!" Pepe whined while flailing around.
"Gomen ne Pepe-chan." Yaya said, momentarily tearing her eyes away from the pink glitterfly hair clip she'd been staring at so longingly. "What were you talking about?"
"Easter." Pepe said downcast, finally capturing her owner's attention. "I don't think we should join."
"Why not? We'd get to work with Utau-chan! We could probably get to go to concerts all the time and get all sorts of freebies!" Yaya said folding her hands behind her head and continuing her walk through town.
"Goo...but you said we were gonna find the Embryo together. We don't need Easter's help."
"Eh...I guess you're right. And I don't wanna be invovled with whatever they're doing with the X-Eggs." she said thoughtfully. Pepe nodded vigorously. "But what am I supposed to tell Utau-chan?"
"No maybe?" Pepe said sarcastically. Since when are they on a first name basis?
"YAYA-CHAN!!" A voice called from behind. They both spun around to see a figure in dark sunglasses a sunhat running towards them. "There you are...Y-Yaya-chan." the figure panted kneeling in front of her. The voice was familiar and that of a woman, not much older than here.
"Who are you?" Yaya said defensively, taking a step back and narrowing her eyes slightly. The figure cocked her head, smiling slightly. She removed the glasses and winked.
"Yaya-chan, it's me." Yaya immediately recongnized the pair of voilet eyes staring back at her.
"Uta--!" Utau clamped a hand over her mouth.
"Shh! Unless you want to get mobbed by my fans don't say my name outloud!" she hissed. Yaya nodded and she removed her hand.
"What are you doing here?!"
"I came to see you of course. C'mon!" Utau took her hand and started pulling Yaya up the street. Pepe tried desparetly to keep up. She couldn't help but think Utau seemed alot friendlier than she was yesterday. A little too friendly.
They entered an icecream shop and Yaya squealed in delight. Utau smiled somewhat slyly and ordered a two-scoop for Yaya and one-scoop cone for herself.
"Yay! I love chocolate!" Yaya said attacking her cone.
"Yeah..." Utau nodded much less enthusiastically.
Pepe nudged Yaya and she sighed. "Utau-chan...I've thought about your offer...I-I'm sorry! I can't join Easter." she said bowing slightly. For some reason the older girl didn't seem surprised.
"It's alright. I understand...Oh! I almost forget!" she said as though she just remembered something important. Pepe shook her head in disgust. A model and singer she may be, but an actress she is not.
Out of her trenchcoat she pulled out a CD. It was her debut album for Meikuyuu Butterfly. "Special autographed adition. You did want an autograph, right?"
"UWAH!!" Yaya jumped up and hugged Utau who groaned. "ThankyouThankyouTHANKYOU!! This is sooo cool!"
"Eh...no problem. Sorry, but I've got to get back to work. Later." she said resuming the nonchalant and bored attitude she'd had the day before. Yaya simply nodded not paying her much mind while she traced the signature with her finger. "See Pepe-chan! She took that well, and we got a CD!" she said turned to Pepe once Utau was gone.
"Hmm..." Pepe didn't reply. Thinking hard about Utau's behavior. If you ask me I think she was anticipating it. She thought. They started to walk home. The whole time Pepe couldn't tear her gaze from the CD Yaya clutched so tightly. Something was definitely out of place here.
Cuxie: I wasn't sure how to end this chapter. Gomen ne!
Utau: I can't believe you made me hang out with that child.
Cuxie: You're only 14 ya know. It's not like you're an adult.
Utau: Whatever.
Cuxie: Whenever! Review plz!
