Musahiru: your eyes:
Hey! Hiruma-kun! Mamori yelled, running towards him.
Hiruma hears Mamori running up behind him, and turns around. What is it damn manager? He asked a little curiously, noting that there was a piece of paper in her hand.
Are you gonna do the talent show next week? She asked excitingly.
Why would I wanna do the talent show damn manager? Hiruma asked her, raising his eyebrow in slight annoyance.
Ano! I don't know! I just thought you should since you play the guitar so well! I really think you have a shot at winning. She said, still holding up the flyer.
Hiruma grabs the flyer and thinks for a moment! I'll think about it! And with that, he walks away.
~~~~later at rehearsals~~~~
Ya! Mamo-nee! What are you going to do for the talent show? Suzuna asked, getting excited.
I'm going to sing a song from Taylor swift! Mamori said, smiling.
Ya! I love Taylor Swift! What song?! Suzuna asked, getting more excited.
I'm going to sing fifteen! Mamori says, blushing a little. I love that song.
Me too! Suzuna jumped out of her seat.
Just then, the doors opened to the auditorium, and Hiruma casually walked in with his guitar case! He then sat behind Mamori.
Ya! You-nii! I didn't know you could play the guitar! Suzuna said turning around.
There's a lot of things you don't know about me damn skate! Hiruma said smirking.
Next! Mamori Anezaki! The teacher called from the stage. Mamori went up and started singing Fifteen.
I didn't know the damn manager could sing! Hiruma said rather shocked.
When she finished, the teacher came back up! Beautiful Mamori! You have such a beautiful voice! She said. You will be our second to last act! Now! Last but certainly not least! Her eyes bugged out of her head on the last minute entry's name. Um! Yoichi Hiruma, playing a song with his guitar! One song, Glory!
A Rent song? Mamori never though Hiruma liked musicals.
Hiruma walked up onto the stage, and sat on a stool in the middle of the stage, and began to play his guitar.
One song glory, one song before I go
Glory, one song to leave behind
Find one song, one last refrain
Glory, from the pretty boy front man
Who wasted opportunity
One song, he had the world at his feet
Glory, in the eyes of a young girl
A young girl, find glory
Beyond the cheap colored lights
One song, before the sun sets
Glory, on another empty life
Time flies, time dies….
Hiruma gets up, and kicks the stool over, and continues to play his guitar.
Glory, one blaze of glory
One blaze of glory, glory
Find glory in a song that rings true
Truth like a blazing fire, an eternal flame
Find, one song, a song about love
Glory, from the soul of a young man
A young man, find the one song
Before the virus takes hold
Glory, like a sunset
One song to redeem this empty life
Time flies and then
No need to endure anymore
Time dies…
As he ends the song, Hiruma lowers his head, and the spotlight slowly fades around him.
The teacher was totally shocked, but stood up and clapped, as well as Mamori and Suzuna. They couldn't believe that came out of the same anti-social, Demon of Deimon high. T- That was amazing Hiruma! You'll be the very last act! So people will be stunned at the end of the show!
Hiruma nodded, and walked off the stage, after packing away his guitar, not saying a word.
Backstage, Musashi was working on the props with the others, and had heard the whole thing, and automatically knew why Hiruma had chosen that song. He still misses me! Musashi said matter of factly. Him and Hiruma were back together on the field, but not together like Hiruma wanted them to be. Realizing how much of a toll this was taking on Hiruma, Musashi walked up to the teacher to ask her something.
~~~~ The night of the talent show~~~~
The acts were all somewhat decent! There had only been one accident where the acrobatic show, ended up with someone flipping off the stage. Mamori just finished her act, and walked backstage to find Hiruma staring at her.
What'd you think? She asked, a little out of breath.
You did really good for a damn manager! Hiruma said with that smirk. Then the teacher got back on stage.
Beautiful! Simply Beautiful! Thank you Mamori! Next up! Is a young man with a lot of talent! Please give a round of applause for Yoichi Hiruma!
Hiruma walks up, and sits on the bench that was placed in the middle of the spot light, but as he was about to perform, Musashi yelled wait, making Hiruma stand up, wide eyed.
Musashi! What are you doing here? Hiruma asked him, a little shocked.
Hold on a sec! Musashi takes the microphone from its stand. Ladies and gentleman! This act has been changed to a duet between Gen Takekura, and Yoichi Hiruma, and we will be singing your eyes from Rent! He puts the mic back on the stand. Do you know how to play that one? He asks Hiruma.
Hiruma smiles and begins to play the song as fake snow starts falling from the roof.
Musashi: I should tell you, I'm disaster
I forget how to begin it…
Hiruma: Let's just make this part go faster
I have yet to be in it
I should tell you…
Musashi: I should tell you….
Hiruma: I should tell you…
Musashi: I should tell you…
Hiruma: I should tell I blew the candle out
Just to get back in…
Musashi: I'd forgotten how to smile
Until your candle burned my skin…
Hiruma: I should tell you…
Musashi: I should tell you…
Hiruma: I should tell you…
Musashi: I should tell…
Both: Well, here we go, now we…
Hiruma: oh no
Musashi: I know this something is here goes
Hiruma: Here goes
Musashi: guess so it's starting to
Who knows?
Hiruma: Who knows?
Both: Who knows where? Who goes there?
Who knows? Here goes
Trusting desire, starting to learn
Walking through fire without a burn
Clinging a shoulder a leap begins
Stinging and older, asleep on pins
So here we go, now we….
Musashi: oh no
Hiruma: I know
Musashi: oh no
Both: Who knows where? Who goes there?
Here goes, here goes
Here goes, here goes
Here goes, here goes….
Musashi ends the song, kissing Hiruma, as the fake snow still falls, and Hiruma strums the last cords. As he does so, the light fades around them.
The teacher walks onto the stage crying! Brava! Brava! Simply beautiful you two! Ok! Now the judges will decide who the winners are!
Musashi and Hiruma walk backstage hand and hand. You were terrific out there! Musashi said to Hiruma.
You too! I never knew you could sing! Hiruma said.
Only for you! Musashi says, kissing Hiruma again! Before being barraged by tons of people.
And we're back with the final scores! The teacher says holding an envelope. Ok! 3rd place goes to! The Acrobats! Hands the ribbon to the non injured acrobat. Next! In 2nd place, Mamori Anezaki! You deserved it dear! She says as she hands the second place ribbon to Mamori. And last! The first place ribbon for this year's talent show goes to… Musashi and Hiruma!
Musashi and Hiruma in a state of shock, take the ribbon. You two earned it! The teacher says clapping.
You earned it! Musashi says to Hiruma.
No! we earned you damn oldie! He says kissing Musashi, then turning around, holding the ribbon up, yelling Ya-Ha!
