Chapter 1: Reintroduction
NOTE: This takes place after the last episode.
"Takuto!" The scream echoed through the air. A male stopped in his tracks. His guitar slung over his back. He turned to stare at the person who had called his name. He began walking towards the familiar figure. He did not know who she was, but he knew he had to approach her.
"Meroko! Meroko!" The girl called into the sky. "Thank you! Meroko!"
"Meroko?" The boy raised a shining feather he had picked up and stared at it for a long moment. His mind raced as memories flooded back to him. He looked over the girl again. "Mi... Mitsuki..." He felt out of words. It was just so much to take in at one time. For the past six weeks he had been confused out of his mind. He did not understand what had happened throughout the last two years of his life. Now he felt a surge of feelings and emotions in him. "That's... that's right..." He looked down at himself. "But... how? I don't understand. Why am I alive?"
"Takuto..." Mitsuki smiled, tears welling in her chocolate orbs. She felt this overwhelming surge of joy. "You remember don't you?" All she received was a half nod. Obviously this man was still unsure of what was happening.
Mitsuki opened her eyes, yawning. She turned over on her side, still tired. She had dreamed of the past. That event had taken place three years ago. It was actually only a couple days after her sixteenth birthday. Many things had changed.
Meroko was no longer around for she was an angel. She came to visit once in while. She was aloud to, but usually she just had cases where she had to guard over to life of some person and make sure they didn't die. It was the complete opposite of being a shinigami. (Shinigami: Death Angel)
Takuto had been a lone singer for the past years. Now that Mitsuki had turned sixteen she was prepared to show the world Full Moon again. She was going to. It was the third year anniversary since she had left. Still she heard people talking of her on the streets. Most said had much of a shame it was for her to leave so young.
Mitsuki still lived with her grandmother and maid. She felt sad that Takuto had to live alone, but was happy that he lived next door to her. It made things simpler.
As for the nineteen year old Takuto, in general, he was grateful to be done with the life of a shinigami and even happier that Mitsuki and him could be together now without the rules of the heavens getting in the way.
Masami Ooshige, Full Moon's manager and adult friend, stuck by Mitsuki's side through all of her surgery recovery time, but now has baby boy named Shinka. The father is no other than Wakaouji. The small family lives happily in a large house just down the street from Mitsuki.
Mitsuki looked towards the clock. Her blond hair blocking some of the view. She pushed it down and blinked tired eyes. The clock read 6:00am. Mitsuki moaned, but sat up. The alarm was set to go off in a half hour. She shut it off. Since she was already awake it would be unnecessary.
Today would be a busy and exciting day. Takuto was going to be having a concert. The people loved him as much as Full Moon. This was Mitsuki's opportunity. She would be a secret guest at his concert and reintroduce her voice to her fans. It would be great! She was supposed to nineteen now, but sixteen was not to far away. She could always just say she had not aged in appearance or add a little extra makeup to make her look older.
Later
Singing, Takuto smiled to his fans. He played his guitar with ease. In the background was a drummer and someone to play on the keyboard, but they just played for the money. Usually Takuto sang alone, but with this huge crowd that would just not work.
Stopping the sung with a quick guitar solo, Takuto began to wave. A huge smile on his face. His hair was tied back into its usual pony-tail and he looked as handsome as he always did. Hungry teen girls reached out for him. He took a subconscious step back on the stage so they did not grab his clothes. He wore jeans and his familiar blue, hooded jacket.
Takuto was performing on the same stage Full Moon had three years back. Now it was time to show the world her singing again. He looked back towards the curtains of backstage, knowing the beautiful girl was waiting anxiously to let the people see her once again.
He looked back to the crown. In the front row were many girls, but also Mitsuki's grandma and made. Some of Mitsuki's friends had come to Takuto, not knowing she would appear. Madoka was also in the front row. She also enjoyed Takuto's singing. Truthfully she liked Takuto. She wanted to meet him and she had no idea he was involved with Full Moon. No one did. Takuto Kira and Full Moon together would be all over the news and it just could not be known until Full Moon showed her face on stage again.
Some of Mitsuki's friends had learned that Mitsuki was Full Moon, but watching her age, but she just told them she had worn high heels and makeup. It was a ridiculous excuse, but they would never believe the truth. They had kept it to themselves.
"All right! All right!" A woman walked out on stage. "Come down. Now today we have a special surprise for you all." She looked around as everyone closed their mouths to hear the news. Takuto let his guitar rest on the sling around his neck and shoulder and placed his hands to his side. "I myself was shocked to hear this news, but we have a mystery quest hear right now. This person has been gone for some time now, but is back to show the world what she's made of. We're going to turn off these lights and when they go back on you'll all figure out just who came to sing for you today!" Everyone began clapping and cheering.
The lights went out. Only whispering could be heard.
Meanwhile, backstage, Takuto placed his guitar beside a chair and looked towards Mitsuki, also know as Full Moon. She looked scared. People were on stage setting up. She only had a couple minutes.
Swallowing Mitsuki began to ask a question. She stopped and looked down, ashamed that she felt this way. She was supposed to be used to this and happy, but she was more nervous than anything. She wondered what the people would say...
"Come down, Mitsuki." Takuto assured her. He approached and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.
"I can't... I can't do it... What if your fans never liked me to begin with?"
"I saw plenty out there who showed up at your concert."
"They..."
"Mitsuki?" Masami had left Wakaouji to watch Shinka. She could not miss this for the world. "What is it?"
"I... I don't think I can."
"Don't act like that. You came here for a purpose Mitsuki. Don't let them all down out there. This is your time. All of us are routing for you. No matter what they think we'll still be hear." Takuto spoke encouraging words. Mitsuki smiled and nodded. He was such a good person. That was why she loved him so much.
"Thank you, Takuto." Mitsuki tensed when Takuto kissed her lips gently, but did not stop smiling.
"Do your best." He stepped back from a beaming Mitsuki. She nodded.
"I... know... this is sort of last minute and all, but could you... Well I'm performing Eternal Snow and I was just wondering if you could... play lead guitar. It would make things easier." Takuto placed to stubborn hands on his waist and stared at Mitsuki.
"I'll do it." He could not help, but to surrender to those longing eyes. "But just this once."
The crowd of people's heart pounding. None of them spoke anymore. They were all to excited. Who was their mystery guest? Suddenly to side lights went on and in the shadow a figure could be seen. Music started playing. A song began. The crowd knew this song. Every single one of them. It was Eternal Snow. That voice... That voice was Full Moon!
The people wanted to cheer and cry out in joy, but the song was playing and was not to be interrupted. Camera's flashed all over. The next lights that went on were the lights that revealed the drummer, keyboard man, and Takuto. The crowd cheered lightly seeing the main man and then all the lights went on. Cheers echoed at the conformation of their mystery quest. The song went on for another two minutes and then ended.
Full Moon waited nervously. She looked around at the people who made no noise for a few moments. Takuto was worried they would not be pleased. Mitsuki would never get over letting down fans.
Suddenly cheers rose. They were higher and louder than ever. Mitsuki's hope was renewed. She smiled and tears of joy welled in her eyes.
"Thank you! Thank you so much everyone!" The cheers only grew louder. Mitsuki ran into the arms of Takuto. He almost fell over, but returned her hug. "They liked it... Thank you."
Madoka watched an awe. She had not seen Full Moon in so long. Now seeing her friend made her happy, but seeing her friend in her crushes arms did not. She frowned, hoping the two were just friends. She did not want to be mad a Full Moon, but if Full Moon and Takuto Kira were together it would complicate things.
The press was all over the reintroduction of Full Moon. Recording agencies all wanted to talk to her. On the front page of all the newspapers were headlines saying things like:
Full Moon back in action
Full Moon appears at Takuto Kira's concert
Full Moon and Takuto Kira. A couple?
