Side Chapter Final: The Concert

Location: Beacon Music Grounds

Time: 8:00 pm

It is the day of the Vytal Music festival and all four schools must have a performing act to represent. Three of the Academies have now performed and now Beacon was up next to the stage.

The stage has a circular setup where the instruments are being housed with a giant monitor above to show the performers for the audience. The stage has also a runway which leads to a smaller circular stage.

The crowd still ready to go, waiting for the representatives of Beacon to perform.

Backstage the band; Aftermath was getting ready to head to the stage while Coco has been helping the band with their costumes.

"All right, you're good to go Weiss." She said as the heiress was now wearing a white biker jacket along with a white inner tank top. She also wears white skirt.

"Thanks Coco." Weiss said before she approached Velvet who was doing the make-up.

Makoto and Dante then approached Coco to get their costumes ready.

"Okay you boys are next. Which one of you wants to go first?" she asked before Dante and Makoto starts playing rock paper and scissors to decide.

Dante wins the game and Makoto enters the dressing room first while Dante walks towards both Blake and Yang who were already in their outfits for the concert.

Blake was now wearing a dark purple shirt with long sleeves with white pants and black heeled boots.

Yang was a zipped up yellow vest with a pocket on the left side, she wears a brown skirt along with brown boots and knee length socks.

"You two ladies are ready?" he asked as the duo turns to them.

"You bet!" the blonde brawler said as she pumps her fist.

"Yep." Said by the feline assassin as Makoto exits the dressing room with his new outfit for the concert.

He was now wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up along with a necktie. He also wears black jeans and boots. He also has fingerless gloves to finish the outfit.

"You look like your about to shred a guitar really bad later." Dante said as Makoto punched him by the shoulder.

"Dante! You're next." Coco said as Dante approached the dressing room.

As the group was getting ready Ruby, Kairi and Sora enters the room with their outfits.

Ruby was now wearing a red tank top shirt with a black print on the right side along with her red cape. She also wears a red skirt and knee-length boots.

Kairi was now wearing a pink blouse with a black short denim jean and boots.

Sora was wearing a white sleeveless jacket with gloves and boots.

"Guys, were almost next. So let's get ready." Sora said as Dante exits the dressing room with his new outfit.

Dante was now wearing red leather jacket with gold button closed. He also wears a black leather pants with boots.

"All right huddle up guys!" he said as the band gets together in a circle. "All right this is what we've been working on for eight months now. Let's give them a good one and blow the roof out of this stadium!" he said as the rest of the group cheers on except for Makoto.

"Actually the stadium doesn't have a roof." He said as everyone starts to chuckle. "No I'm serious." He added.

"Then we punch a hole to the sky." Dante said while smiling and point upward before huddling with the band.

The band then puts their hands together at center.

"Aftermath on three. One two three…" Dante said.

"AFTERMATH!" the band shouted before they left the dressing room except for Makoto who then talked to both Coco and Velvet.

"Thank you two, we couldn't done without you both." He said.

"Don't worry about it, were just here to help you guys anyway you want. For Beacon of course." Coco said as she slaps Makoto's right shoulder.

"Just break a leg out there." Velvet said as pats Makoto's left shoulder.

Makoto nods before he heard a voice in his head.

"Though art I… And I am thou…" the voice said.

"Though shall have our blessing when thou choosest to create Personas of multiple Arcanas…" The voice said before fading away.

After showing his appreciation to the two girls who help the band to get ready, Makoto has strengthened his power of both Hierophant and Temperance Arcanas.

Makoto then regroups with the rest of the band and wait for them to be announced.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now to represent Beacon for tonight." The MC said as the crowd gets ready. "Please give it up for, Aftermath!" The MC said as the band enters the stage while the crowd applaud towards them.

Sora gets on the drums while Kairi walks towards the keyboard. Yang grabs a yellow bass and Blake grabs a black guitar. Ruby grabs a red bass and Makoto grabs blue guitar. Dante then grabs the final guitar and Weiss walks towards the mic stand which was at the center of the stage. Weiss then Dante the nod who then gave Sora the signal.

Sora hits his sticks three times before…

(Insert Holy Diver-Dio (Liliac cover))

The song starts with Kairi playing notes from the keyboard for a few seconds. The rest of the band then starts playing their instruments with Weiss bopping her with the crowd. She then hums at the mic before singing.

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me?
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver

After the first portion of the song the rest of the kept on playing before Weiss approached the mic again.

Got shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you, look out!
Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away, get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel, yeah
The vision never dies
Life's a never-ending wheel, say

At the last portion of the second verse Weiss hits a high note before continuing the song.

Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid
Jump, jump, jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen, yeah!

After the chorus Dante steps forward then performs a guitar solo towards the crowd while the rest of the band plays along with him as Weiss rest up. As Dante was about to finish up his solo Weiss approached the mic to end the song.

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me? No! No!
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean?

Gotta get away, get away
Gotta get away, get away, yeah

Weiss then finish up the song while facing the crowd.

Holy Diver, sole survivor
You're the one who's clean
Holy Diver, Holy Diver
There's a cat in the blue coming after you, Holy Diver

Oh Holy Diver
Yeah, alright
Get away, get away, get away
Holy Diver, Holy Diver
Oh Holy Diver
Hmm hmm hmm

(End Song)

The song ends as the band slowly fade the song. The crowd roars in appreciation to the band, while the teachers were watching from a sky box near the stands applauding towards Aftermath. Among the crowd were Koga and Kaoru along with Yu, Rei alongside team RRAT.

Dante then turns to Sora and gave him a signal for the next song.

Sora hits his sticks three times before…

(Insert PVRIS - St. Patrick)

The song starts with Kairi hitting a few notes from her keyboard before Weiss approached the mic stand.

You give me something to talk about
Something to talk about

After the intro the band plays along with Weiss as she dances to the song with the crowd jumping up and down.

Hey!
Hey! Hey!

Weiss dance along the beat of the song before approaching he mic stand.

I know it's chemicals
That make me cling to you, cling to you
Ooh and I need a miracle
To get away from you, way from you

I know it's chemicals
(that make me cling to you, cling to you)
and I need a miracle
(to make me stay with you, stay with you)
And I'm not spiritual
(but please stay)
'Cause I think you're a saint
And I think you're an angel.

Weiss kept on singing as Makoto walks towards another mic to sing along.

I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to talk about
Something to talk about
I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to think about
That's not the shit in my head

The band then plays the instruments as Weiss faces the crowd with her mic.

You're a miracle
You're a miracle
A miracle

After the first chorus the band slows down while Weiss started walking at the runway with Ruby and Dante.

Transparent hands
Were at my neck, at my neck, at my
Ooh but I love the way
You let me breathe instead, breathe instead

Take in your chemicals
(that make me cling to you, cling to you)
You are a miracle
(I gotta stay with you, stay with you)
And I'm not spiritual
(but please stay)
'Cause you're a glimpse of bliss
A little taste of heaven

As the second chorus was about to hit the trio went back at the stage and regrouped with the band.

I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to talk about
Something to talk about
I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to think about
That's not the shit in my head

Weiss then stepped on a button next to her mic stand which activates the pyro on the stage.

You're a miracle
You're a miracle
A miracle

I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to talk about
Something to talk about
I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to think about
That's not the shit in my head

After the second chorus the band slows down with lights dimmed down while the spot light was on Weiss.

I need a miracle
To bring me back to you, back to you
Ooh I know you're gone now
But I still wait for you, wait for you

The lights went back on then the band quickens the pace.

I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to talk about
Something to talk about
I said ooh, ooohh
You give me something to think about
That's not the shit in my head

You're a miracle
(Hey!)
You're a miracle
A miracle

As the final chorus was about to end the band slows down the pace.

I still wait, I still wait for you
Ohh I know you're gone now
But I still wait for you, wait for you

(End Song)

As the song ended the crowd again roars after the performance, especially Yu who was on Rei's shoulder.

Weiss then was standing on the middle of the stage before she starts descending beneath it. After a few seconds the platform rises up and Makoto lets go of his guitar. He then stands at the middle of the stage and Dante hands him a black leather coat.
He wore the coat and grabbed the mic. Makoto then turns to Sora and gave him a signal. Sora then hits his sticks three time before…

(Insert Jesus-Gackt)

Shizuka ni sora ni kaeru anata no sugata wo
(what else can I do besides avenge you?)
Namida ga kareru made zutto mitsumete ita
Afureru kanashimi wa kese nai kizuato ni
Wasure wa shinai to chikatta

As the first chorus was about to sing the stage illuminates and band picks up the pace.

Oreta tsubasa o habatakase
Subete o keshite mise you
Itsu no hi ka owari o mukaeru
Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
(you told me to live as if you were to die tomorrow; feel as if you were to be reborn now breathe as if you were to live forever)

After the first chorus the lights dimmed down and the spotlight was back on Makoto and Dante on the platform with the pace of the song slows down again.

Furueru yubi de akai namida o nazotta (I had nothing to lose, nothing to lose)Hakanai omoide ga yami ni ochite yuku
Saigo no hohoemi ga ukandewa kieru
Nukumori dake o nokoshite

As the second chorus was about to hit the stage again lights up and band picks up the pace yet again.

Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
Ima no boku wa iyase nai
Hateshi naku tsuzuku tatakai ni
Kono mi o subete sasageru dake

After the second chorus the band hits their notes harder as Makoto was headbanging towards the crowd. As the instrumental portion of the song was about to end Makoto grabs the mic and pace of the song slows down.

Itsuka wa kono sora ni daremo ga kaeru kara
Wakare no kotoba wa ira nai (make it up)

As the final chorus of the song was about to hit the light on the stage brightens up.

Oreta tsubasa o habatakase
Subete o keshite mise you
Itsu no hi ka owari o mukaeru
Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
Ima no boku wa iyase nai

Kono mi o subete sasageru dake
Redemption... Redemption...

After the final chorus hits the rest of the band then kept on playing until the end of the song.

(End Song)

(Insert Sabaton-Carolus Rex both English and Swedish versions)

The song starts with Sora hitting the drums in solid but powerful pace before the rest of the band plays along with Dante raising his right hand with the mic towards the sky. Sora again plays the drums again with the same rhythm before the rest of the band plays along before Dante place the mic near his mouth to sing.

All embrace me
It's my time to rule at last
Fifteen years have I been waiting
To sit upon my throne

After the first part song Dante paused and let the rest of the band play along before singing again.

No allegiance
I will swear no oath
Crowned by god not by the church
As my power is divine

After the second verse Dante paused again and let band play. Dante then walked at the middle of the runway and faced the crowd before singing.

They thought I was too young to rule the land
Just as they failed to understand
Born to rule
My time has come

I was chosen by heaven
Say my name when you pray
To the skies
See Carolus rise
With the lord my protector
Make them bow to my will
To the skies
See Carolus rise

After the first chorus the band kept on playing while crouches down points towards the crowd before singing again.

Född att härska,
leda mina män i strid
Ingen man kan mig befalla
Jag lyder under Gud

After sing Dante turns to the crowd and raises his right with the mic while he lets the rest of the band to play along. Dante then stands up then sings again.

Hör min order
ifrågasätt mig ej
Vet att sådan är min vilja,
och därmed ska det ske

Dante again paused and let his band mates to play their instruments before singing again.

Sida vid sida uti strid
med karoliner går jag i krig
knä om knä

Min tid är här
Över Norden jag härskar,
med det arv som jag gavs
Gång på gång
Sjung Carolus sång
Krigets konst jag behärskar
Låt mitt namn sprida skräck
Gång på gång
Sjung Carolus sång
Än en gång
sjung Carolus sang

After the second chorus the band quickens the pace.

Framåt Karoliner
Fiendens dom är här
Låt oss krossa dom
Kasta in dom genom helvetets portar

Dante said from the mic before singing again.

All that's thine
Shall be mine
There's no stopping me
All over Europe my rule shall be questioned by none

All I see
Give to me,
That is my decree
My will be done

After Dante sang he walked back towards the stage while Makoto performs a guitar solo towards the crowd with Ruby. After the solo Dante walks center stage to sing the final verses of the song.

They thought I was too young to rule the land
Just as they failed to understand
Born to rule
My time is now

I was chosen by heaven
Say my name when you pray
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies

With the lord my protector
Make them bow to my will
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies
See Carolus rise

(End Song)

After the final chorus the song ends and the crowd cheers towards the band while Dante raises his hand in response.

(Insert Sabaton-The Last Stand)

The song starts with Makoto hitting the giant bell three times before the rest of the plays their instruments in a strong yet slow pace. Makoto then joins in while Dante faces the crowd before singing.

In the heart of Holy See
In the home of Christianity
The seat of power is in danger

There's a foe of a thousand swords
They've been abandoned by their lords
Their fall from grace will pave their path, to damnation

As Dante kept on singing the crowd bops their heads towards him.

Then the 189
In the service of Heaven
They're protecting the holy line
It was 1527
Gave their lives on the steps to Heaven
Thy will be done!

Dante then raises his left hand before singing the chorus.

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
For the home of the holy
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Gave their lives so boldly

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
In the name of his glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story again

After the first chorus Dante crouches then faces the crowd before singing again.

Under guard of 42
Along a secret avenue
Castel Sant'Angelo is waiting

They're the guards of the Holy See
They're the guards of Christianity
Their path to history is paved with salvation

Dante stood back up before resumes singing and walking towards the platform with Makoto and Yang.

Then the 189
In the service of Heaven
They're protecting the holy line
It was 1527
Gave their lives on the steps to Heaven
Thy will be done!

As Dante kept on singing the crowd then points as him.

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
For the home of the holy
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Gave their lives so boldly

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
In the name of His glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story again

After the second chorus Makoto stayed on the platform, performing a solo with his guitar while Dante and Yang walks back to the stage. After his solo Makoto slowly walks with the as his bandmates kept on playing before Dante grabs the mic again.

Dying for salvation with dedication
No capitulation, annihilation
Papal commendation, reincarnation
Heaven is your destination

Dying for salvation with dedication
No capitulation, annihilation
Papal commendation, reincarnation
Heaven is your destination
In the name of God!

After singing the verse Dante faces the crowd to sing the final chorus of the song.

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
For the home of the holy
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Gave their lives so boldly

For the grace, for the might of our Lord
In the name of His glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story
Gave their lives so boldly
Come and tell the Swiss Guards' story again

(End Song)

After the final chorus the song ends and crowd roars towards the band as Dante raises his hand in response before the lights go out.

"We got one song left for each of us, so who wants to go first?" Dante asked as Makoto raises his hand, volunteering to perform his final song.

"I'll do it, just get Kairi ready." He said as both Dante and Weiss nodded.

Dante then gave Kairi a signal who immediately left the keyboards to Weiss as she wears a black cloak and puts the hood on.

(Insert Gackt-Mizerable)

The song starts with Kairi playing her violin before the rest of the band starts playing and the pyro edge of the stage starts igniting. The band kept on playing right before Makoto approaches the mic.

Kaze ni dakarete

The band then slowly plays the song before Makoto grabs the mic as the pyro shuts off along with the lights as a spotlight was focused on him.

Tada ima wa amai toki no itazura da to
Sora ni itsubuyita

After Makoto finishes singing the verse the rest of the band plays along and the light goes back on.

(Insert DragonForce - Through the Fire and Flames)

The rest of the band hits the note again before Kairi kept on playing until her bandmates play along with her before pausing and Makoto stepping forward-facing the crowd with his guitar.

Makoto then strums his guitar wildly while the rest of the band keeps up with him. Makoto then kept on playing until the song slows down for Dante to sing.

On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign, we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

After the intro, the band picks up the pace as Dante sings again.

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
In fire and pain, now once again we know

Dante hits the last part of the first verse with a high note before the chorus.

So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

After the chorus Dante lets the band play with Makoto leading the group with his guitar. The instrumental ends with Kairi hitting notes from her keyboard before Dante sings again.

As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment to their eyes
Running back through the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars

Dante kept on sing while running towards the runway with both Makoto and Blake and stops at the platform.

In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny this time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight

Again Dante hits the last part of the verse with a high note before the chorus.

And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

After the second chorus Makoto and the rest of the band kept on playing while Dante faces the crowd. After the instrument solo Dante then grabs the mic.

Whoah, whoah
Whooooah, whoah
Whoah, whooooah

After Dante screams towards the crowd the band then performed an instrumental towards the crowd with Makoto and Blake leading. Makoto then steps forwards then performs a solo to the crowd before tagging with Blake who then performs a solo towards the crowd. Both guitarist traded turns on their solos as the rest of the band plays along until Dante steps forward again while they slow down.

Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man

Before the final chorus the band picks up the pace with Dante.

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

Dante then hits the final part of the chorus with a high note before the rest of the band ends the song.

(End Song)

The crowd cheers wildly again after another incredible number as Dante raises his left fist up as a sign of appreciation. The lights then goes out while crowd cheers after a few minutes the lights went back on and the band was now wearing a mix of traditional Japanese outfits along with a mix of modern and traditional instruments were now at the stage.

Sora hit the cymbals three times before…

(Senbonzakura-Wagakki Band)

Ruby starts the song by strumming her shamisen followed by Kairi who starts hitting her wadaiko then Blake starts blowing her starts blowing her shakuhachi as Weiss slowly starts walking towards the mic and starts singing.

Senbonzakura yoru ni magire
Kimi no koe mo todokanai yo
Seiran no sora haruka Kanata
Sono kousenjuu de uchinuite

After Weiss singing the first part, the entire band starts playing their instruments for the song as the crowd roars before Weiss pressed a button to fire confetti towards them. After a few seconds of the instruments, Weiss walks towards the mic then sang again.

Daitan-futeki ni haikara kakumei
Rairai-rakuraku hansen kokka
Hinomaru-jirushi no nirinsha korogashi
Akuryou-taisan ai-shii-bii-emu

Kanjousen o hashirinukete
Touhon-seisou nan no sono
Shounen shoujo sengoku-musou
Ukiyo no manima ni

In the second part of the song, Dante uses his mic to sing along with Weiss at some parts of the song before hitting the chorus.

Senbonzakura yoru ni magire
Kimi no koe mo todokanai yo
Koko wa utage hagane no ori
Sono dantoudai de mioroshite

Sanzen-sekai tokoyo no yami
Nageku uta mo kikokenai yo
Seiran no sora haruka Kanata
Sono kousenjuu de uchinuite

Weiss sang the first chorus while at the second part of the chorus Dante sang along with her to keep up before the rest of the band kept on playing their instruments with Blake leading them before Weiss takes hold of her mic again.

Hyakusen-renma no mitame wa shoukou
Ittari-kitari no oiran douchuu
Aitsu mo koitsu mo minna de atsumare
Seija no koushin wan tsuu san shi

Zenjoumon o kugurinukete
Anraku-joudo yakubarai
Kitto saigo wa daidan'en
Hakushu no aima ni

Weiss was feeling the flow of the song better at the second verse, where she is shown that she is singing the song even better. Just before the start of the next chorus Dante helps out Weiss by singing with her while playing his guitar.

Senbonzakura yoru ni magire
Kimi no koe mo todokanai yo
Koko wa utage hagane no ori
Sono dantoudai de mioroshite

Sanzen-sekai tokoyo no yami
Nageku uta mo kikokenai yo
Kibou no uta haruka kanata
Sono senkoudan o uchiagero

After singing the chorus Makoto then performs a solo with his koto. After a few seconds as Makoto was finishing up his solo everyone except for Blake then resumes playing their instruments. Blake then joins along before Weiss takes the mic again.

Kanjousen o hashirinukete
Touhon-seisou nan no sono
Shounen shoujo sengoku-musou
Ukiyo no manima ni

As Weiss sang this part everyone dimmed down and let Weiss take center for the first part of the finale with the spotlight on her.

Senbonzakura yoru ni magire
Kimi no koe mo todokanai yo
Koko wa utage hagane no ori
Sono dantoudai o tobiorite

After Weiss sang everyone starts to play their instruments for the finale.

Senbonzakura yoru ni magire
Kimi ga utai boku wa odoru
Koko wa utage hagane no ori
Saa kousenjuu o uchimakure

After singing the final chorus Weiss lets her bandmates play the tunes for the song then ends it with the crowd jumping up and down.

(End Song)

After the song, the crowd roars for one final time as the band lines up and bows towards them before waving at them as the curtain falls ending the concert.

At backstage the band cheers on for a successful performance with Dante giving some of the members a fist bump.

"Well, that was months of training worth it." Makoto said as Weiss placed her arm around his shoulder.

"I hope we do this again because it was fun!" She said before Makoto heard a voice in his head.

"Thou art I… And I am though…" The voice said.

"Though shall have our blessing when thou choosest to create a Persona of the Priestess Arcana…" The voice said before fading away.

After performing with Weiss on the concert Makoto has strengthened his power of the Priestess Arcana.

After an exhausting night, the band left the back stage and head back to their dorms.
