Chapter 7
"I'm so happy you got yourself a little part-time job." Azami's mother told her as she was eating breakfast before going to her first day on the job, "This will definitely teach you something about responsibility."
Azami nodded, "And I'll have Velvet, Mari, and Riva to help me along the way as well."
"I'm glad." Her mother replied as she smiled, "It kind of took you a while to make friends, but I see you managed."
"It only took me a while because the only thought on top of my head was if people would only be my friend because of your popularity." Azami explained.
Back then, way before Azami was born, her mother was an international pop star that everyone loved. A lot of Azami's classmates' parents knew her mother well. It caused a lot of kids to become Azami's friends, and it caused Azami to not trust people with her friendship as much as she did before. But once she met Mari who hadn't known about her mother's former glory, she was glad and planned on not telling her about it anytime soon.
She feared that it'll make their friendship complicated.
"Don't worry about it now Azami." Her mother told her with a reassuring look, "You have the other girls now and it looks like you all are getting along so well. I would hate to see it fall apart just because of what I was back then."
Azami nodded, "I'll make sure of it."
After breakfast, Azami grabbed her bag with her cellphone and other things she needed and headed out the door.
"I believe you should tell them." Shock told her as he popped his head out of her bag.
"No way am I doing that." Azami told him with a glare.
"But wouldn't it be better to just tell them instead of keeping it from them? Be reasonable Azami." Shock told her as he crossed his arms.
Azami sighed, "I really don't want to talk about it, okay?"
It was silent after that.
Shock kind of...kind of (and don't get the wrong idea) felt bad for her. Azami had trust issues after the incident in which all the friends she used to have would just use her for her popularity. A person with that problem would definitely have problems making friends without them finding out.
They made it to Riva Aunt's shop and they walked into the door. They were greeted by the faces of Mari and Velvet, who were sitting at a table with their bags at their sides.
"Hey guys." Azami said with a smile.
"Hey." Mari said with the equal expression, "Riva's aunt is just going to tell us what are jobs are before she opens shop."
"I'm so thrilled to get to work." Velvet said with a thumbs up.
"And a bit nervous too..." Azami said as she sat down next to Mari.
"Nonsense, you girls will do fine." Riva's aunt said as she walked in with Riva behind her, "Now, let's talk about what positions you girls will work in."
The girls nodded and Riva went to go sit next to Velvet.
"Azami, Velvet you girls will be in the kitchen helping bring out the food and washing the dishes."
Azami frowned and Velvet clapped her hands.
"Mari, you'll be the greeter along with Riva and take people's orders as well."
Mari nodded as she gave a smile to Riva, who smiled back.
"Everyone understand what they need to do?" Riva's aunt asked.
The girls nodded.
Riva's aunt nodded back and checked the watch on her wrist, "And look at that, its opening time! Everyone to their positions!"
Mari and Riva went by the door while Azami and Velvet followed Riva's aunt into the kitchen.
"Greeting people is really easy." Riva told Mari, "All you have to do is be nice and take them to their table. After waiting a few minutes, you can go back and take their order."
Mari nodded, "Got it."
The bell rang signaling someone coming in and the girls greeted him.
"I'll show you to your table sir." Riva said as she guided the man to his table.
"Why thank you." The man told her as he sat down.
Riva handed him a menu, "I'll be back to take your order in a few minutes. In the meantime, would you like something to drink?"
"An iced tea would be nice, thank you."
Riva nodded and hurried away to the kitchen, leaving Mari to greet another customer by herself.
The bell rang again and this time a woman walked into instead. She seemed like a business woman with her suit, briefcase and everything. And she was also on the phone probably talking to a co-worker. Why you may ask? Well, she was almost screaming her head off, and she looked quite angry too.
"I told you for the last time I needed those papers from you!" She yelled, "If we're going to sign this girl into our label, everything needs to be done right!"
"Um..." Mari spoke, causing the woman to take a quick glance at her, "Welcome. May I take you to your table?"
The woman snarled, "I'm on the phone, one minute!" And she went back to her conversation.
Mari sighed. This was going to be one long day...
Back in the kitchen,Riva had just ordered them to pour some fresh ice tea for their first customer. So they got ready by putting out a glass and taking the fresh iced tea out of the fridge.
Azami put the glass down while Velvet started to pour the liquid in, "Velvet, that's too much!"
"What are you talking about?" She asked as she eyed the glass, which was a dime away from the top.
"If you fill it too much, it'll spill and Riva might fall." Azami explained.
Velvet sighed as she took some out of the glass, "There, is that good?"
Azami nodded. She then put the glass onto a tray and handed it to Riva, "All done."
"Thanks girls." Riva took the tray from her and went out to go give the drink to the customer.
"This isn't half bad." Azami stated as she crossed her arms.
Riva aunt laughed, "Believe me girls, it gets harder."
Velvet and Azami looked at each other before gulping, "Ah great!"
Back with Mari, she stood a few feet away from her first customer while she waited to go and ask her what she wanted. She tried to ask what she wanted to drink like Riva did before, but the woman simply ignored her and continued her conversation on the phone.
Mari sighed, "Why did I get stuck with the mean customer?"
"Waiter!" The woman yelled calling to Mari's attention,"Get me a glass of water!"
"Coming right up!" Mari said as she walked into the kitchen.
"What do you need Mari?" Azami asked her friend as she playfully put her hand under her chin and leaned against the counter.
"A glass of water for a rude customer." Mari replied, "She talked on the phone the whole time while I was trying to greet her!"
"That doesn't sound too thrilling." Velvet mentioned as she handed the girl the glass of water, which Azami looked at.
"That glass is too full Velvet!" She yelled, "What did I tell you about that!?"
"Its fine! Nobody is going to fall." Velvet assured her.
"You jinxed it!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
Mari sighed as she took the glass of water anyway and went out to give it to the customer. It turns out that Azami was right and water started to spill everywhere, causing Mari to slip and fall getting covered in all of the water.
By the end of the day, 8 plates and glasses were broken and Mari had about 3 bruises on her side for falling so much. The girls, depressed and sad, sat down with Riva and her aunt giving them sympathetic looks.
"Don't look so sad girls, I think you did great today." Riva's aunt told them.
"Breaking glasses and falling is not a good job..." Mari stated as she slumped in her chair while holding her side.
"I don't think we're cut out for this job..." Velvet sighed.
Azami looked at the girls, 'Velvet and I can't even work right together...' She thought, 'I hope this doesn't reflect on our Precure duties.'
Riva smiled, "You don't always have to do a great job on the first try, nobody's perfect."
"That's right." Riva's aunt agreed, "As you go day by day, that's how you get better."
"Like when I first started to play the guitar." Azami mentioned as the girls looked at her, "I wasn't very good at first, but over time I became better until I do what I do today."
"See?" Riva replied, "Don't worry. Tomorrow is another day!"
The girls nodded, now smiling. But then a crash sounded outside, causing their faces to drop and they know exactly why. The girls got up from their seats and outside to find an Untune wrecking most of the area. And up above in the sky was no other than Hidoi.
"You guys again!" Azami yelled as she pointed towards them, "Listen, we were having a very important talk inside...!"
"How cares..." Reddo told her with a smirk, "We just want to get rid of you."
Azami sighed, "We have to transform..."
"But my aunt is..." Riva started.
Azami turned to look at her, "Watching? I'm sure she can keep a secret, right?"
Riva nodded.
"Well, let's go then!"
"Precure, Play my Music!" The girls yelled as their mascot released their button (Azami=Play, Mari= Pause, Velvet=Rewind, and Riva=Fast Forward).
"Go, Precure Play Disc!" Their mascots yelled, "Mirror!"
The girls reflections, after the transformation, appeared onto the mirrors and they both were engulfed into a bright light (Azami=Pink, Mari=Blue, and Velvet=Green, Riva=Yellow).
They held hands as they floated down a bright pink, blue, green, and yellow. Azami let go of Mari, Velvet, and Riva's hands to start her transformation.
Azami kicked her legs high as pink and white high tops with black shoelaces appeared. She traced down her arm with her fingers and pink fishnet arm warmers appeared on her arms. Followed by that was a one-shoulder top with a criss cross tie in the middle. She had a puffy pink with a black belt and pink suspenders on her sides. She has a pink strip on her neck that held her Play Sign and a pink and white bag to hold her compact. Her hair was tied up into a ponytail with a white bow and turned a magenta pink, as well as her eyes.
She floated back to where Mari, Velvet, and Riva were. Mari left to do her transformation.
Mari gracefully went onto one foot and stretched out the other, almost like a figure skating pose, and short blue boots (similar to Milky Roses') appeared along with white stockings. She did a motion like she was a DJ and short fingerless fishnet gloves appeared. She spun around and a puffy short dress with a black jacket on top appeared along with a cute pair of blue and black headphones. Her blue strip appeared on her neck along with her blue Pause Sign. Her compact was placed into a pink and white bag along her side. She ran her fingers through her hair and it straightened out, turning into a turquoise color with a white headband.
She floated back to where Azami, Velvet, and Riva were, Velvet left to do her transformation.
Velvet held her knees to her chest as short green and white high-tops with black shoelaces appeared on her feet along with long black stockings. She crossed her arms over her chest and green, long fishnet gloves appeared on her hands along with black bracelets on each hand. She did a back-flip in mid-air and a green puffy skirt with black on the bottom. Her top was a green top with black ribbon wrapped around the middle and white under the green top. She gained a green strap around her neck that held her Rewind sign. She also gained a pink and white bag that held her compact on her side. She flipped her hair and it changed into a lime green with darker green highlights and were tied into pigtails. Two green drumsticks were placed into each pigtail and she gained two white ribbons on the pigtails as well.
She floated back to where Azami, Mari, and Riva were. Riva left to do her transformation.
Riva brought her hand to her lips and blew a kiss, causing a bunch of hearts to appear. They surrounded her legs, causing white and yellow striped stockings to appear on her legs. She also gained one white and yellow long boot on her left leg and a short white/yellow boot on her right. The hearts wrapped around her waist, making a black and yellow pleaded skirt to appear around her waist. She spun around as a cute one sleeved tank top with orange heart designs appeared on her body. Her Fast Forward sign was placed on a orange strap that appeared around her neck. She also gained black short gloves on her hands that were held by orange ribbon. She eyes gained into a brighter yellow and her hair was now a strawberry blonde color and was curled and pinned back at the top by a cute yellow, white and black piano clip. Her compact was placed into a pink and white bag.
They all high-fived each other as they made their way down to the end of the vortex.
"The sweet beat of my heart gives me my strength," Azami said as she turned around and posed with her arms out and her legs crossed," Cure Tune!"
"The passionate words written in my heart," Mari said as she turned around and posed with her hands again like she was DJ and her legs crossed as well," Cure Lyric."
"The sensation of thrilling music fills my ears!" Velvet said as she jumped into the air with her arms out and her legs behind her, "Cure Symphony!"
"The composing of my faith is my music!" Riva said as she turned around and turned her head a bit so some of her face could be seen, "Cure Voice!"
"Let's Play My Music," They all said as they grabbed each others hands and then did their poses again," My Music, Precure!" They finished.
The girls leaped into the air and surrounded the Untune. They all powered up their fists and punched the monster sending it aback.
"Tune Guitar!" Tune yelled calling out her guitar.
"Lyrics Bass!" Lyrics yelled calling out her flute.
"Symphony Tambourine!" Symphony yelled calling out her tambourine.
"Voice Keyboard!" Voice yelled as she called out a keyboard-like guitar.
The girls then started to make sound waves using their instruments to stun the monster.
"This is where we need teamwork." Tune told Symphony, who nodded.
Both leaped into the air and used their instruments to combine their musical notes. The notes went pounding into the Untune, sending it down completely.
"The big finale girls?" Lyric questioned with a smirk.
The girls nodded as they got their instruments ready.
"My heart, tune up!" Tune called as she placed her Play Sign at the tip of her guitar.
"My heart, thrilling music!" Symphony called as she placed her Rewind button into her tambourine and bashed it three times.
"My heart, passionate words!" Lyric called as she placed her Pause sign at the end of her bass.
"My heart, composing faith!" Voice called as she placed her Fast Forward sign at the top of her keyboard guitar.
They all charged up their instruments as they reached their full power, "Precure, Standing Ovation!" They all yelled as they fired their beams at the monster.
"Uni!" It yelled as it disappeared into nothingness.
"AZAMI!" Shock yelled as he tried to charge at the girl, but failed as she was holding him back with just one finger.
They now sat in front of Riva's aunt after the shop had closed for the day.
"Will you shut up!?" Azami demanded as she tried to stuff the mascot into her bag, "Riva's aunt said she'll keep a secret, and Song said everything will be fine."
"She's right Shock, nothing to be worried about." Mari stated as she smiled over to DJ.
Riva's aunt smirked, "Don't worry girls, your secret is safe with me. Its a shame that someone wants to make music disappear. I really do enjoy music."
"Do you play anything?" Velvet asked her with curiosity.
"The piano." She answered, "I wanted to become a pianist back in my day. But my sister worrying about me and wanting me to go into business got into the way."
"Such a shame." Azami spoke.
"But I am glad that I have this shop." Riva's aunt chuckled, "I think of it as a little bonus."
Everyone laughed.
