Chapter 10: Time of Sun and Rain

Nobunaga wiped the tears from his eyes "I'm so sorry guys."

"You guys should go and get ready" said an all too familiar voice

Everyone looked up and Rika, Kirik, Nike, Sora, Falco, Kanon, Lind, Kururu and Spitfire on the balcony of the garden.

Ringo puzzled asked "what are you guys doing here?"

Lind smiled "As if we'd miss you guys perform."

The group got up and headed to the auditorium for the festival.


The group performed a dance number and dedicated it to Kazu, many of the students had heard about what had happened the previous year and as the dance ended, the entire auditorium erupted in applause.

The performances were coming to a close when Principle Korojii took the stage.

"We have a special presentation that has been delivered by one of our Alumni, as many of you know last year we lost two of our students in a horrible tragedy. One of them was working on a presentation for this year's festival; this Alumnus has decided to complete this student's unfinished work in memory of him."

Ikki and crew looked over at Nike who had a smile on his and nodded.

The lights went dark and Faith Hill's "There you'll be" began to play. Images of the school were projected, soon followed by Ikki and the group. Candid shots of the group appeared; on the boat at the lake, at the amusement park, at the club and on campus with them dancing in the rain. Pictures of the groups rehearsal for the festival two years ago showed, followed by the couples, Kaito and Akira, Spitfire and Simca, Mikan and Falco, Akito and Agito, Lind and Kururu, Kanon and Ringo, and Sora and Rika. The last minute of the song was filled with images of Ikki and Kazu. As the song ended, the picture slowly faded from showing the entire group in front of the club to Ikki sitting alone under a tree, staring up at the sky, with a transparent image of Kazu leaning against the same tree. Slowly words appeared in the sky "I'll always be there in times of sun and rain."
