A/N: The song used in this chapter is Korean based (and so will the other songs throughout the story) so there will be some discrepancy between the dancing described and the lyrics since we use the English translation. After all, Korean romanization is not easy to read.

Chapter 2
"Digital Bounce."
Takao and company continued their practices, and thus, they had to leave their basketball practices early. Kise used his modelling as an excuse and decided to rope Kasamatsu in it as well. The lie shocked the entire club, but luckily there was no one fussing about it. Takao made up a lie stating that he's volunteering at a hospital and isn't able to stay the entirety of practice.
But Kuroko and Kagami were not so lucky. While Kuroko could lie with a straight face, Kagami was fidgety and couldn't look Riko in the eyes. She caught onto his strange behaviour, and when she cornered him about it, she found out the truth. Of course she was enraged, but after hearing the reasoning and the newfound ability of Kuroko, she decided to let them do it. But they'll have doubled training when it's over.
When the entire team had heard this, Koganei had suggested if they could be the camera crew when they'd be ready to shoot the video. It wasn't a bad idea, since the Light and Shadow pair knew that the others couldn't ask their teams.
And as such, the duo was permitted to leave practice quite early, in order to get more time to practice.

"Okay, let's take this from the top." Hikaru announced. "Get into position boys."
"Hai!"
In a circle, the boys lied down on the floor on their sides. Their left legs were bent in a ninety degree angle forwards to their chest, while their right leg were bent backwards. Their palms were pressed on the floor, it seemed as though they were preparing to push themselves upwards any minute.
Hikaru then played the track, and in an instant, Kise and Takao rose up, doing wave like movements as they turned faced each other. When they came close, with bent knees, Kise placed both his hands outwards to Takao, while Takao placed his right hand close to Kise's face.
The next two who got up were Kasamatsu who was at the front and Kuroko who was at the back. They had gotten up in the same way as Kise and Takao, but assumed different positions. Kasamatsu faced forward towards Hikaru with his right hand stretched out, his right knee bent inwards while his left was bent in Takao's direction. Kuroko stood behind Kise with his left hand bent at an angle with a fist at his chest, while his right palm was above Kise's head.
It was then Kagami's time to get up, and while he faced forward like Kasamatsu, his upper body was turned slightly to the others. His right hand was bent at an angle, his palm opened in Kise's direction.
They then moved to their left (Hikaru's right) whilst trying to maintain their position. However, it ended in failure as they lost their balance and crashed to the floor. Kagami was the one who felt the blunt of it all, since he was the only one on that side. Kuroko didn't fall along with the rest of them since he managed to keep his balance.
"You're crushing me! Hurry and get up you hulks!" Kagami shouted.
"I'm too gorgeous to be called a hulk!" Kise retorted as he got to his feet and assisted Kagami as well. Kasamatsu then got up and aided Takao to his feet.
"You know, you could always just shift your weights to your other leg when doing that part." Hikaru then said in a matter-of-factly. "It's simpler and you surely won't fall."
"Okay!" they chorused as they once more got into position. But instead of going down onto the floor, they assumed the position of when they all had gotten up. And following what Hikaru said, when the track played, they transferred their weights from one leg to the other. It worked perfectly, but they didn't have time to stop and cheer.
They then went into the next position by bending their knees until they were low enough to the ground and then suddenly, they exploded upwards with one hand stretched up. They then moved again to get into another position, Kasamatsu and Takao switching places, moving from the right side to the left and vice-versa. Kise had changed his spot as well, Kuroko hadn't moved.
In this position, at the front there were on the left side, there was Takao in the front with Kagami behind him at an angle. On the right, in the same position, there was Kasamatsu and Kise. Kuroko was at the back and in the middle.
As the music played, they went into a toprock, moving left and right, their hands coming up to their chest every time they did so. They did that for about two times, until they started to change positions again.
Kuroko moved up from the back while crossing his hands over each other. Takao and Kagami moved back, Kasamatsu and Kise didn't trade places but moved back as well.
The new position had Kuroko at the front, with Takao and Kasamatsu flanking him on his right and left. Behind those two were Kagami and Kise.
The music continued, and they were doing well so far. However, Takao and Kasamatsu were supposed to switch places while Kise and Kagami moved further outwards. But, the two point guards ended up crashing into each other, sending each other stumbling.
"Senpai! Takaocchi!" Kise said as he made his way towards them.
"We're fine." Takao said. "Just a little mistake there, though I'd like to prevent that in the future."
"Naturally," Kasamatsu agreed.
However, Hikaru noticed something. He then clapped his hands together to get their attention. "Boys, assume your last position."
The boys did as they were told, Kuroko was the middle, Kagami and Kise behind him on his right and left flanks, Takao and Kasamatsu in the front but where aligned with Kagami and Kise.
Hikaru walked up and around them to see the reason for their crash. And with his trained eyes, he found the problem quickly.
"You're aligned with each other." He said.
"Huh?"
"You're both in a straight line across from each other. That's why when you did the cross, you crashed." He explained. "Hear what; whenever you're about to cross; Kasamatsu-kun, take a small step backwards, but not too much to crash into Tetsuya." The eldest teen nodded. "And Takao-kun, take a small step forwards. That way, there won't be accidents, right?"
"Yes Sir,"
Hikaru sighed. "Could you stop with the 'Yes Sir'? It makes me feel like I'm in the military. Loosen up a bit."
"O-okay,"
"Like that," he smiled. But then his face went back to being serious. "From the top! I want you to get at least the first thirty seconds perfected before you leave here today!"
They let out an agonized groan.
"Is that a complaint I hear?" he asked with an icy tone.
"No sir!" they chorused quickly. If it's one thing they found out about Kuroko's father, is that he can be a real slave-driver.

The days continued on, during the week, the boys will leave their practices early, but on the weekends, they were exempted due to their lies. For Seirin, they allowed Kuroko and Kagami to go, and after their practice, they'd go and visit the boys. The first time they had gone, they got the shock of their lives at seeing the complex, but overtime they quickly adjusted to the scenery.
There were even times when Hikaru left Riko in charge (he's heard many things about her from his son) since he is a busy man. The choreography was already recorded, so that she (and Seirin) could tell when and where they made a mistake or if they were off the beat.
It was then that Takao, Kise and Kasamatsu got a feel of what Kuroko and Kagami were subjected to everyday. She worked them hard as though they were preparing for a basketball match.
But being that they were amateurs, mistakes and accidents occurred frequently. At one point, with Kuroko in the middle, they were supposed to make a jump backwards kicking out a leg, to form a circle at Kuroko. That ended up being a disaster. Kise and Kagami were at the front this time, and when they did that part of the routine, they crashed into Kuroko and out of reflex, the small teen grabbed on Kagami's shirt, bringing him down along with him.
Other times, it was mostly due to them switching positions, they end up crashing into each other or they simply forget to move. But apart from these mistakes, Hikaru found that they were still a bit stiff (minus Kuroko), but never pressed them too much. They were still new to dancing, and there was no way they'd get that good over such a short space of time.
Still, the boys found that they were enjoying themselves. The training is hard due to them being strapped for time, but dancing proved to be almost as fun as basketball. Almost. There were many times during their practices that they'd goof off, seeming like a bunch of idiots but when Hikaru catches them, they'd be in deep trouble.
With four days to go, Kise had brought them to his elder sister ―Ruiko, to take their measurements. From the offset he had told his family about this, and they were quite supportive. Ruiko especially, she had wanted to make their outfits for the video.
After that, they then headed back to the studio to continue practicing, Kise seeming to have more energy than the rest, simply because he couldn't wait to see what his sister would make for them.
It was now three days left, they decided to record their voices singing the song. At first, they had thought about singing it while dancing in the video, but seeing how out of breath they'd end up…they totally disregarded the idea.
Two days to go, their costumes were ready and they had their dress rehearsal. Ruiko was present in case someone's pants ripped, or their shirts were too tight or something. But, miraculously, there was nothing wrong with their outfits.
xxxx
It was finally the day of the shoot. The boys had met up at Kise's house, due to the blond's family wanting them to have everything they would need. At first the boys were confused, as all they'll need is help with the costumes. But, they found out the true reason.
One room in Kise's house had transformed in what seemed to be a dressing room, their costumes hung on the clothes rack, mirrors here and there, blow driers and the works were present on top of the tables. There were three beautiful females present, and seeing them, the boys could tell that they were Kise's sisters and mother. After all, the blond speaks about his loving family everyday so much that Kagami thought that he had a family complex (if that was even a thing).
"What's all this?" Kagami asked.
"We'll be giving you everything you'll need!" Ruiko grinned, throwing her golden hair over her shoulder.
"You can't shoot a video looking like riff-raffs!" Reiko shrieked. "Your costumes are excellent but your hairstyles need some attention and your faces too! Good grief! You look like a ragtag group of boys!" she then added, "except Ryoucchi."
"It'll all be over before you know it." Ritsuko smiled. She was their mother, a woman with long golden hair and bright brown eyes.
The boys looked at the three women and then back at Kise. Seeing all three siblings plus their mother together in one place was frightening.
"I wonder what his father looks like." Takao murmured to the others.
"I've seen him once." Kasamatsu replied. "Simply put, he's a taller Kise with black hair and green eyes. He even has the long lashes too."
"I see." Takao and Kagami nodded. Kuroko didn't say anything as he's seen Kise's father too many times before when they were in Teikou. He shuddered at the memories.
"Ryoucchi! Let's start!" Reiko chirped as she pat the back of the chair.
"Okay~" he said in a sing-song voice as he basically skipped over to where his second elder sister was. The other boys cringed.
"So, Kuroko-kun, are you ready?" Ritsuko asked. In reality, she was quite eager to put her hand in the boy's blue locks; since Kise had always talked about how soft Kuroko's hair was from they were in Teikou.
"Hai." He responded as he made his way to her. He figured to go with the flow since Kise's family wouldn't do anything horrible to them. Kise is a prime example. Day in day out, the blond had always looked good and whenever asked, he'd reply that his sisters or mother got him ready.
Takao, Kagami and Kasamatsu were taken to put on their costumes while the others were getting their hairs done. Ruiko led them to another room after taking their costumes off the rack.
Within a couple minutes, the trio had finished getting dressed while Kise and Kuroko's hair were done. Upon seeing each other, a ruckus erupted.
"Looking good there Kise!" Takao said as he nudged the blond in his side. He then turned in Kuroko's direction. "I would have never thought that it was you Kuroko! You should wear your hair like that more often!"
Kise's blond hair was done with a side-part, slightly pulled back on the left side, and kept in place with stylish green clips. His forehead fringe was messy and was done in a sweep to the right. Kuroko's hair was straightened with flipped out side bangs. The two boys looked gorgeous, and upon seeing Kuroko especially, Kagami's jaws dropped.
"Takao's right." The redhead agreed. "You should keep your hair like that. Maybe you won't be so invisible with that hairstyle."
"I take that as a compliment." Kuroko said in his usual tone.
"Alright, you can ogle each other later! Ryoucchi, Kuroko-kun, come with me to get dressed!" Ruiko announced. "You three go get your hairs done!"
"Yes Ma'am!" they chorused. She was quite scary.
The three boys then sauntered towards the chairs; however, Kasamatsu had to sit in the spare chair since there were only two stylists. The eldest teen looked at the Takao and Kagami and chuckled. Never would he have ever imagined that he would have done something like this, but still, this was one of the best and most fun two weeks that he's ever had.
He looked at Kagami's face and saw that the boy looked absolutely mortified. Kasamatsu could tell that he was afraid of what Ritsuko would have done to his hair, but she was constantly telling him that everything would be alright. Takao on the other hand, he was enjoying every moment of this. He was chatting with Reiko as though she was his sister and not Kise's.
After a couple minutes, Takao's hair was done, and in Kasamatsu's eyes, he looked like a totally different person. The style was the 'emo style' as many would call it. Takao had a long fringe swept to the left, seeming to cover his left eye. His side bangs falling neatly at his jaws.
Kagami's hair was done in a cool fringe-up hairstyle, much to his displeasure. He liked having his bangs in his face, but Ritsuko assured him that the look gave him a more 'to die for' appearance. His original look made him seem to thug-like and unapproachable, she commented.
It was now Kasamatsu's turn and his stylist was Ritsuko, Reiko had gone to assist Ruiko. He sat in the chair and surprisingly, she had finished styling his hair faster than the others. It was probably due to him having the shortest hair out of the bunch. Inwardly, he sighed a relief that he had always kept it short.
He then looked into the mirror and couldn't help but smile. His hairstyle was the dandy medium fringe-up. The hair is short at the sides and the back, but at the crown, the hair is left thick to create a 'dandy' look. Ritsuko had permed this area to give it extra volume and texture. Using wax, his fringe was lifted upwards to create more volume.
"There you have it! All done!" Ritsuko chirped. "You boys look absolutely stunning!"
"Thank you!" the three bowed at her. Quickly, she waved them off for being so formal. Then, Kuroko and Kise emerged out of the other room, fully dressed.
"I have to take pictures!" Reiko and Ruiko shrieked with their cellphones in hand. They sounded like over-zealous fans.
"Gather together boys!"
xxxx
Ruiko pulled up in the driveway and the boys exited out before heading onto the lawn. Everyone was already waiting, Seirin along with Kuroko and Kise's fathers. However, when crowd's eyes landed on the boys, they were beyond shocked.
"Look at my Ryou!" a tall black haired man shrieked. His green eyes were sparkling as he looked at Kise. He was Ryouhei, Kise's father. The blond boy was dressed in a black and green suit ― a black shirt underneath a cuffed green blazer jacket and matching green pants tucked into black shin-high boots with green laces.
Beside him was Kuroko, who wore a green shirt underneath a black blazer jacket with matching black shorts. He had on dark green shin-high boots with black laces.
Next was Kagami, who was hissing at Kise for being so clingy to Kuroko. Like Kise, he wore the same outfit, however, he wore black cut off gloves with emerald diamonds embedded at the knuckles.
Behind them were Kasamatsu and Takao, who were dressed similarly to Kise as well. But one thing all the boys had wore in common were dark uni-lens sun shades.
"Papacchi!" Kise shrieked and made a beeline for the tall black haired man. When he reached close to him, Kise was caught in an embrace, even spinning.
"Papa! Didn't you see Ryoucchi this morning?!" Ruiko shouted. "Release him! You'll ruin his entire outfit and face!"
"Stop being so jealous, Rui-chan." Ryouhei countered. "If you want a hug so badly you could've just asked."
Kise nodded in agreement.
Everyone else looked at the scene with shock. But then again, this was Kise's family. This shouldn't have been surprising. Kuroko had then made his way over to his father, who wanted to ruffle his hair but restrained himself upon seeing the new hairdo. The other three made their way over to where Seirin where, who, up until this time, couldn't utter a single word.
"Cat got your tongues?" Takao joked.
"Who are you people?" Riko said in awe. She then turned to look at Kagami. "Kagami-kun? That's you right?"
"Are you making fun of me, Coach?!" he was close to snapping, since he was forced to get rid of his normal hairstyle. "You're really making fun of me, aren't you!?"
"No, it's just that you're unrecognizable. Compared to how scary you look daily, this is a refreshing look for you."
Kagami couldn't counter. With the rest of the team nodding in agreement, he felt an embarrassing blush creep up onto his face. Quickly, he turned away to avoid getting teased later.
When all was said and done, the atmosphere got serious, and immediately the boys moved away from the group and further onto the lawn. Hyuuga, Mitobe and Tsuchida had already set up a carpet as the boys couldn't dance on the lawn. Koganei set up the camera, while Riko instructed them to get prepared.
The boys got into their positions, lying on the ground on their sides, with their palms pushing against the floor. Their left legs were bent beneath them in a ninety degree angle while the other was bent behind. Hyuuga then pressed the play button, starting the music.
Never let the party stop (x3). This part had been sung by Kise.
While this part of the song played, Takao and Kise came up off the ground first, Kise placed both his hands outwards to Takao, while Takao placed his right hand close to Kise's face just like they practiced. Following them were Kasamatsu and Kuroko in which Kasamatsu faced forward towards their supporters with his right hand stretched out, his right knee bent inwards while his left was bent in Takao's direction. Kuroko stood behind Kise with his left hand bent at an angle with a fist at his chest, while his right palm was above Kise's head. Kagami was the last to get up off the ground and into position.
They then shifted their weights onto their other foot, and leaned to their right whilst maintaining that position. Then smoothly, they made a dip to the ground after which they exploded upwards.
On top everybody on top, hey! (x3). This time it was Takao's voice.
At this point, they assumed new positions, at the front were Takao and Kasamatsu switching places, Kagami was behind Takao and Kise behind Kasamatsu. Kuroko was left in the middle. They then went into a toprock, moving left and right three times before raising their left hands into the air. They did this two more times.
Never let the party stop.
Here, the boys placed their right hands over their left forming an 'x' as they once again switched positions. Kuroko came forward, while Kasamatsu and Kagami moved backwards to end up on his left and right flanks.
Digital Bounce
With their right hands bent in a ninety degree and palms open, they moved their hands up and down as this part of the song played.
Digital Sound
Moving fluidly, they dropped their right hands behind them and then placed their left hands to their ears. A finger was touching their tragus as they moved their heads around in a slow circular motion.
Digital X
Dropping both their arms at their sides rather stiffly before bringing them up again to form an 'X', matching the beats, they untangled the 'x' to make their hands fall to their sides again.
Welcome to Digital World
Here, Kuroko made fluid steps backwards, while Kasamatsu and Kagami slid smoothly across each other to switch positions, Kise and Takao only took large step outwards to end up in line with Kagami and Kasamatsu on Kuroko's flank.
This music is another round of the Sevolution
A sound that goes into your heart like the blade of a knife
I like that. I like that
I like that that that
This part was sung by Kuroko, his soft and monotonous voice actually fit the part somewhat.
At this, they made a small step forward before using their right hand to trail down their outstretched left hand. Crossing their feet at the ankles, they then brought their right hands upwards with their palms facing outwards after which they pointed over to the left and bringing it down seeming as though they were writing the number '7' in the air.
They then brought up their hands to their chest, one hand made a fist while the other had their index finger pointing upwards, going around in a circle. Moving smoothly, both their hands then formed a fist at their chest. Taking a small step to the right first, and then another to the left, it created a motion of forwards then backwards, forwards then backwards.
After, they then placed their hands on their thighs followed by a ripple like motion by their entire bodies going downwards to the ground. Straightening up, both their hands cut across each other at their chest, one hand then pointed to the ground, the other in the air. Turning their bodies to the side, their right arms seemed to mimic a knife, straight and moving downwards slowly as though slicing something.
In that same breath, Kuroko turned to his right, at Kasamatsu and Kagami and at that moment, they went into a freeze; Kuroko then turned to his left, towards Takao and Kise while pointing his thumbs at them. Like Kasamatsu and Takao, they went into a freeze.
Matching the beat, with one hand raised, Kuroko used his index to point left then right; the others behind him placed their palms starting from their abdomen upwards to their lips in a ladder sequence. Transitioning smoothly out of that into spins, Kasamatsu and Takao had their backs turned to their audience, Kagami and Kise were behind Kuroko at his right and left flanks.
With bent knees, the two boys at the front moved up and down in a rapid motion, Kise and Kagami did the same, but in the opposite of Takao and Kasamatsu; they moved down and up.
A supersonic wave that you hear in your ears
A 3D paradise that stretches out in front of your eyes
Wanna get, wanna get
Wanna get get get
Everybody put your hand up
Get get get your hand up
This time, it was Kasamatsu who sung this part.
The boys had their knees bent, they brought up their right hands to their ears and held that pose for a second or two before turning their faces towards the other direction. At this point, with their right hands already up, they turned their faces forwards before bringing their hands over across their chests.
They transitioned smoothly into different positions at this time, Kasamatsu and Takao trading places with Kagami and Kise, Kuroko was still in the middle. With their hands still across their chests; Kuroko, Takao and Kise moved up and down while Kasamatsu and Kagami moved down and up in order to signify a wave like movement.
From that position, Kasamatsu and Takao returned to the front, Kise and Kagami at the back. The boys then brought their hands to their faces after which they assumed a stiff posture with their hands at their sides.
Taking a small step into a glide backwards, they crossed their arms over each other in a snake like motion going up to their heads which upon reaching, they paused a little bit before bringing their hands down in an arch.
They then jumped, kicking out one of their feet before bending down low. Kagami and Kise who were at the front used that movement to get closer to Kuroko, along with Kasamatsu and Takao, they ended up surrounding Kuroko. Kuroko then did the same movement as the boys did earlier.
Watching the boys perform so far, Hikaru had tears of joy. He remembered the days when they couldn't even get in sync with each other. Well, they still hadn't gotten everything perfected at this moment, but comparing them now to when they had just started, it is a great improvement. Beside him, Kise's doting father was a crying mess, Ruiko was videoing every bit of it with her phone.
The song entered the chorus, which was sung by everyone except Kagami.
Digital Bounce
Digital Sound
Digital X
Welcome to Digital World (x2)
Here, they bounced on the spot with fists at their sides; they moved their hands up and down as though they were pounding on something. Taking a step back, they then moved their hands to their ears after which they continuously moved back and forth to signify sound waves. Following this action, they brought their hands upwards to form an 'X' as previous.
Making a set step forwards, they repeated the bouncing action, but this time they placed one hand on their ear, the other was on their hip while their feet made a sweeping motion.
All the party people Everybody holla back
A digital attack that shakes the whole room
Wanna get, wanna get
Wanna get get get
Everybody put your hand up
Get get get your hand up
This part was sung by both Takao and Kise.
Moving their heads left and right in a wave like motion twice before taken quick steps backwards, the boys then assembled around Kuroko. A second later, Kuroko used his elbows in a way seeming as though he wanted to break free. But while he was doing so, the others had their hands outstretched as if to mimic and explosion.
As the others kept their positions, Kuroko made two solid steps forwards after which with fingers representing a gun, he moved one hand right to left seeming as though he was shooting the others. In that moment, the others then got up and all five boys went into a rock, which had them moving rhythmically from one foot to the next. With their palms in front their chests, their arms followed the rhythm of their feet, moving up and down.
At the last, they made a cross at their ankles which brought them facing forwards towards the camera. This is where Kagami came up to front and began rapping…or rather lip syncing.
Now everyday you too
And the world you will come to experience
I'm on the cutting edge on top of the city
I'm the lead actor giving enlightenment to the youth
(Into the fire~)
Hey Honey
It's already, already the girls' time
Don't worry about anything, just have a good time
Everyday my name
The mice are nibbling at
But to them I am a cat hunting in the alley
This time is going quickly
Our youth don't know what to do to be wise
Let's share our completely wet youth
Bang Bang Bang
Here, Kagami had come to front and started rapping while the others were in the background doing robotic dances. They were a bit relieved for this part.
Welcome to the digital world
Welcome to the digital world
This was sung by everyone.
While they were doing so, they walked towards each other and at the final moment, they froze in their positions. At the back, there were Kise and Kagami who were standing back to back, followed by Takao and Kasamatsu doing the same but had one of their hands stretched towards the camera seeming as they were inviting someone. And lastly, Tetsuya was in front of them all, with both his arms outstretched like Takao and Kasamatsu. He actually wore a smile on his lips but due to the lens, his eyes couldn't be seen.
The song then ended, and the filming ceased.
xxxx
"I can't believe it's over already." Takao said, gazing up at the ceiling. "In these past two weeks, I had fun."
"Yeah, me too." Kasamatsu agreed. "At first I was sceptical, but I'm glad Kise persuaded me to." The captain then turned to look at the blond. "You better keep your word; you'll do anything I tell you, got that?"
"Hai." Kise murmured with tears streaming down his face.
Seeing this, Kasamatsu chuckled. "Don't worry, it's only on-court I'll manipulate you."
The blond sighed a relief.
"Well, I'm just glad that I got a chance to loosen these stiff bones of mine." Kagami joked. "Even though Kuroko forced me into this, I'll agree that it wasn't half bad."
"That's strange that Kagami-kun would actually like something like this." Kuroko joined in.
"If I didn't I wouldn't have gone through with this!"
Currently, the boys were in Kuroko's dance room, lounging around on the floor. After they had finished the video, they gathered around and took many pictures (in Kise's case, he took so many pictures with his father that the man's phone ended up dying) and chatted among themselves for quite some time. Seirin teased Kagami especially, but they had also commented that he (and the others too) looked very much like real idols.
"By the way," Kasamatsu started up again, looking at Takao. "Did you upload the video?"
"Oh right, I need to ask you guys something." He replied with a small chuckle. "We don't have a name."
"Eh?!" they screeched.
"Yeah, each group needs a name."
And thus, they started their brainstorming for a name. The boys were churning out ideas after ideas, but in the same rapid succession that they were thought up, they were dismissed. It lasted for some minutes, but they just couldn't find a suitable name.
"Then, how about K5? I mean all of our names begin with K." Kagami suggested.
"That's too bland. We need something that jumps out at the audience." Kasamatsu said.
"How about 'Rhythm'? We did pretty well to match the rhythm and beats in our song today." Kuroko suggested.
"Rhythm is good but it's too…dull." Kise said. "How about something like 'Catal Rhythm'?"
There was a pause. The other four exchanged glances and then nodded.
"It doesn't sound too bad." Takao said. "Actually, it has a ring to it." He grinned. He then whipped out his laptop out of his bag to upload the video. When he was done, he was grinning like an idiot. "And guys, our video is up! Catal Rhythm will take the competition by storm!"
The others blanched at him.
"You can't be serious right?" Kise asked. "With our dancing and singing, I doubt anyone will watch the entirety."
"Of course they will." Kasamatsu said. "We look good don't we? I'm sure that'll cancel out the dancing and singing."
"You know your stuff, Yu-chan!" Takao perked.
"Who told you to call me that? I'm your Senpai!" Kasamatsu almost kicked the hawk-eyed boy, the others cracking up with laughter.
Thank you for reading! Don't forget to leave a review! Did we over-describe or under-describe their dancing? Tell us what you think!
