*Next Day*
(Leon POV)
I was walking down thinking for a bit last night with my time with You...(What is she talking about me does...she know who I am?) I thought stunned expression (Argh it would be hard telling You that...but I) I thought sighed remember that memory in middle school...
"Hey Leo-kun" ? said smiled as I confused turned gasped saw a familiar face standing there with small smile formed "O-Oh hey Riko-chan," I said smiling then flinched stared at her beauty...
(...Jeez she looks beautiful like always...) I thought flinched "...You look uh beautiful" I said "...E-Eh?! L-Leo-kun are you okay!?" Riko yelled shocked "Uh what? I was uh...complimenting that's all" I said nervously chuckled staring at her "...?" Riko confused blinked a little for a bit but smiled "Come on I think Chika-chan able to get Yoshiko-san to join us" Riko said (I should probably spend time with the new members too when I get the chance...starting with Yoshiko since she's new) I thought confused expression "Alright led the way we don't have full class since we are participating in the Lantern festival" I said smiled arms crossed...

"Also saw that performance of yours," Riko said "E-EH?!" I yelled panic "You did great ," Riko said teasing "Heyyy! Piano Prodigy" I said "A-Ah..." Riko said "Oh crap my bad Riko-chan," I said concerned expression "N-no it's okay really...I uh actually got back into it as we spend more time with Chika and others in the idol group..." Riko said nervously "Well I would actually at one time listen to your piano again Riko-chan," I said slowly smiled "...Are you sure?" Riko asked concerned "Hey...well you help me got back into vocalizing again though I'm mostly into different genre doesn't mean I would stop supporting to help you girls out," I said smiled "Leo-Senpai!" Ruby yelled "Ah?! Ruby-san?" I asked shocked felt her hug as Riko smiled "It's been three days since we last see you!" Ruby yelled shocked "Aha...well I'm not busy and fixed some stuff so I'm back for a while now," I said stroking Ruby's hair a little as Riko slowly smiled...
"Hell-WOAH?!" I yelled flinched felt Hanamaru and Chika "...Aha...Chika-chan and Hanamaru-san you must be working hard..." I said (...If only I wasn't so busy trying to find those strange techy weapons...those thugs used trying to almost kill in his blacksmith shop early morning) I thought serious expression a little...
"Leo-senpai zura?" Hanamaru asked confused "Ah it's nothing Maru-san I kinda been thinking of the Lantern festival it was rekt..." I said flinched "Yeah though Dia-senpai and few others work with the residents helping out the city...zura," Hanamaru said "Starlight Legion was there as well helping out as well..." Yoshiko said "Yoshiko?" I asked confused "Hehe...Yoshiko is a major fangirl over Starlight Legion...zuraa" Hanamaru said cheerfully "ZURAMARU DON'T TELL HIM THAT! AND IT'S YOHANE!" Yoshiko yelled furiously "But you wouldn't stop talking about how he saved your life two days ago..." Ruby said confused "...RUBY?!" Yoshiko yelled (...Y-Yoshiko is a different person when she's isn't in her Yohane fallen angel side from what Chika and You told me) I thought shocked expression...
"Leon you in here?" Conner asked confused expression "Yo Conner," I said waved both did our unique handshake "Well looks like that mysterious person watching us was..." Conner said "Hey Leon and everyone," Vincent said waved "Vincent?!" I yelled shocked expression "He knows you yah know" Conner whispered to me...
"Ah, I see..." I said sweatdrop as Vincent smiled "UTX Academy been good I just stop by to check on you two but I was shocked of Leon here is back singing again with Conner" Vincent said stunned "We aren't that really important though" I said concerned "What!?" Chika and others yelled "EH?" I asked flinched "I don't know about that the people seem to enjoy your songs a lot," Vincent said smiled "Well they were from an old friend who gives me permission since they disbanded," I said sighed with arms crossed "If yah don't mind I'll join up but as your drummer heh been practicing a bit," Vincent said "Well we head over late at 6 pm," I said "So we have enough time to do whatever," I said smiled arms crossed "Well if you all excuse me I'll borrow Leon and Connor for a bit come on," Vincent said "Well Riko-chan I'll meet you at the festival," I said smiled "Right," Riko said giggled both waved...
"Still haven't asked her eh?" Vincent asked "EHH?!" I yelled shocked "Oh come on Leon you two been forever for how long!" Vincent yelled amazed "Arghh I will think about it plus I have a duty as Starlight Legion...plus I do not want to endanger Chika and others," I said with serious expression "Alright true I have heard of Chaotic Nightwatcher over where I lived he's been well doing a lot of dirty work and almost kills the most disgusting type of criminals" Vincent explained as I sweatdrop...
"Well...that's something else..." I said serious expression "If I have seen something he did dangerous I'll give you a call but beware this guy isn't any normal fighter I saw the stuff he's pretty brutal," Vincent said "I'll say he's more like Anti-hero...since he does most brutal ways to fight crime but must have a reason for doing this" Conner explained "Well enough of that come on gents time to get you two ready" Vincent said had a hand on our shoulders "Right," Conner said smiled...
*4 Hours Later - Night*
(Numazu Festival - Center Hall)
I had a black shirt, blue sleeves flannel, black dress pants, sneakers, and gloves while Conner has a white shirt, yellow long sleeves flannel, black dress pants, sneakers, and gloves...
"I wonder where's everyone else at?" Conner asked confused expression "I got no idea they say be here," I said confused expression "Hey you alright two hours ago you haven't been usual goofy self, Conner?" I asked confused "Clara cheated on me and she dumped me when I already know," Conner said glared but sighed "At least you didn't have to deal with that" Conner said "Well I had a misunderstanding with Kanan even friends can break someone's heart," I said both fist bump at the same time...
"You know how about you lead?" I asked "Alright I will uh Hanamaru doesn't know about this," Conner said concerned "Well I think it would be odd dating someone who's older than you by year?" Conner asked chuckled "Ehh...it was more of a misunderstanding plus I was one who got rejected so it doesn't matter much but we are on good terms anyway," I said arms behind my head "So who is it Riko or Chika?" Conner asked "WHA?!" I yelled "Come on as Vincent says...your not the type to pick both," Conner said arms crossed "Let me figure that one out for myself Conner plus who's ever ask me first could be them or someone we met but knows about me" I explained, "Yeah ughh," Conner said annoyed arms crossed thinking for a bit...
"Sorry for taking so long!" Chika yelled "It's alright we just got here," I said "Hm?" Vincent stunned hit me on the shoulder "Ow what?" I asked turned eyes widened saw Riko and others wearing yukatas? "Psst in case you don't know it's what usually most girls wear especially in a festival like this" Conner said smiled "Oh I didn't know that," I said stunned expression "You girls look great!" I yelled shocked expression "Hehe...you think so Leon-kun?" Chika asked "Haha...Yep" I said nervously laughed (...I hope nothing bad happens to ruin time with Riko and others...) I thought seriously "Leon you gonna get left behind man," Conner said "I got him," Riko said smiled took my hand...
"Sorry about that Riko-chan kinda been distracted a little bit," I said nervously "It's alright Leon-kun though I kinda wish you tell me what's bothering you," Riko said "Conner kinda got cheated and dump on before he gets to say anything makes me wonder," I said confused "I see what you mean...I guess everyone is a bit different than when we were younger" Riko said looking afar beside me both staring off saw others having a good time...
"Hm I haven't seen Dia-senpai or Mari-senpai yet," I said "Yeah we didn't see them either," Riko said confused 'SURPISEDD!" Mari yelled "AAAGHHH!" Riko and I yelped "Mari-senpai da hell?!" I yelled protective stance over Riko who flinched "...Well, this is unexpected Riko-chi and Leo-chi are close together like that" Mari said "...?" Both looked at each other Riko was close to me like I was hugging her (...CRAP!) I thought panic but regain my composure looked at Mari...
"Mari-senpai can you not do that..." I said sighed as Riko glared "Sorry it was too tempting!" Mari yelled giggled "Mari really?" Dia asked sighed walking over in red yukata while Mari has violet colors..."There you two ar-e?" Chika asked stunned looked at Riko and I sweatdrop "C-Chika-chan!?" Both yelled, "Hello Chika-chi!" Mari yelled, "I know I'm shocked too!" Mari yelled "MARI-SENPAI!" I yelled (...I hate myself...ugh) I thought annoyed expression...
*Regrouping with others*
"Hm?" I asked saw person corrupted eyes violet grin darkly armed with a rifle he's moving to the rooftop ( !) I thought shocked when Riko distracted with watching fireworks with others I created blue energy shield spinning throwing it like a boomerang decking the person back of the head fell off the rooftop collapsed on hay as few officers took the person...
(Phew...) I thought "Leo-kun?" Riko asked "Yeah," I said smiling held her hand both staring off the fireworks "Alright it's time Leon," Conner said smiled "Is that so?" I asked confused expression "Well I know it's been short Riko-chan," I said "It's alright I will be right here with others," Riko said noticed no one paying attention kissed my cheek "...?" I asked confused "For luck," Riko said smiled as I nodded wave left...
"Hm Riko-chan?" You asked confused "Ah Y-You-chan?" Riko asked shocked flinched "So Leon-kun is doing singing again...?" Kanan asked confused "Yep everyone seems to enjoy it," Chika said "I wonder Kanan-chan you sound interested in his singing," Mari said with a smug smile "What!?" Kanan yelled "...You were thrilled when he came back" Ruby said "What!? Who told you that?!" Kanan yelled as Chika whistle away "CHIKA-CHAN!" Kanan yelled embarrassed
(I wonder what's going on over there? Better keep setting up as usual) I thought smiled "Le-Leon we have a situation..." Conner whispered as I noticed some guys in formal suits spreading out...
"Vincent and Conner take over...I gotta go!" I yelled dashed into changing room changed into Starlight Legion as usual put my helmet on teleported outside as Vincent and Conner were taking the front of everyone...
"Wha? Where's Leon-kun!?" You yelled, "Y-You don't think he's panicking again?" Ruby asked "Panicking!?" Riko and Chika yelled "Hanamaru and I saw him practicing, and he looks hesitated about something..." Ruby said, "We can't do much here!" Mari yelled "...Leon-kun darn it..." Riko muttered as they watch Conner and Vincent...
[All Time Low - Dear Maria Count Me In]
[Intro - Conner]
I got your picture, I'm coming with you, dear Maria, count me in
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle, and I'm the pen
[Verse 1 - Vincent]
When the lights go off, I want to watch the way you take the stage by storm
The way you wrap those boys around your finger, go on and play the leader
'Cause you know it's what you're good at, the low road for the fast track
Make every second last
[Chorus - Both]
'Cause I got your picture, I'm coming with you, dear Maria, count me in
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle, and I'm the pen
Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out
'Cause it feels like stealing hearts calling your name from the crowd
I took off in blue blur dashed around behind the people as they were distracted with Conner and Vincent singing I deck uppercut each of the weird guys back knocking them out throwing them aside slammed into the ground hard blowing all of their vehicles apart... "Kill him!" Unknown Mask yelled as I spinning kick one in the face as they stared at me... as I grab my sword out charged they charged back...
[Verse 2 - Conner]
Then in the field, you'll be the showgirl of the home-team
I'll be the narrator, telling another tale of the American dream
I see your name in lights, we can make you a star
Girl, we'll take the world by storm, it isn't that hard
[Chorus - Both]
'Cause I got your picture, I'm coming with you, dear Maria, count me in
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle, and I'm the pen
Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out
'Cause it feels like stealing hearts calling your name from the crowd,
(Backup Vocals - Vincent)
Woah-oh-oh...
I looked around saw these guys running away as their leader slashed one in the chest then glared at me then run off as I took back into the backstage room and did a backflip back to normal landed Vincent and Conner gasped but continue...
(Backup Vocals - Vincent)
Ha-ha!
[Bridge - Leon]
Take a breath, don't it sound so easy? Never had a doubt, now I'm going crazy
Watching from the floor
Take a breath, and let the rest come easy, never settle down, 'cause the cash flow leaves me
Always wanting more
[Chorus - All]
'Cause I got your picture, I'm coming with you, dear Maria, count me in
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle, and I'm the pen
Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out
'Cause it feels like stealing hearts calling your name from the crowd
[Outro - Leon]
'Cause I got your picture, I'm coming with you, dear Maria, count me in
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle...
*CROWD CHEERED*
I sighed with relief as Vincent and Conner clapped my hands "We aren't done yet plus I'll take lead in the next one hm?" I asked noticed Chika and others had relieved expressions (Hm? Something happened? I will check on them after this) I thought confused grabbed my acoustic guitar as Conner and Vincent went backstage to let me do this...
[All Time Low - Time Bomb]
[Verse 1]
From the get-go, I knew this was hard to hold
Like a crash, the whole thing spun out of control
Oh, on a wire, we were dancing
Two kids, no consequences
Pull the trigger without thinking
There's only one way down this road
[Chorus]
It was like a time bomb set into motion
We knew that we were destined to explode
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage
You know I'm never gonna let you go
We're like a time bomb
Gonna lose it
Let's defuse it
Baby, we're like a time bomb
But I need it
Wouldn't have it any other way
[Verse 2]
Well, there's no way out of this, so let's stay in
Every storm that comes also comes to an end
Oh, resistance is useless
Just two kids stupid and fearless
Like a bullet shooting the lovesick
There's only one way down this road
[Chorus]
It was like a time bomb set into motion
We knew that we were destined to explode
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage
You know I'm never gonna let you go
We're like a time bomb
Gonna lose it
Let's defuse it
Baby, we're like a time bomb
But I need it
Wouldn't have it any other way
[Bridge]
Got my heart in your hands
Like a time bomb ticking
It goes off; we start again
When it breaks, we fix it
Got your heart in my hands
Like a time bomb ticking
We should know better
But we won't let go
[Chorus]
It was like a time bomb set into motion
We knew that we were destined to explode
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage
You know I'm never gonna let you let me go
We're like a time bomb
Gonna lose it
Let's defuse it
Baby, we're like a time bomb
But I need it
Wouldn't have it any other way
I finished looked down at everyone the crowd cheered once again as I chuckled waved down at everyone as the festival was a success... "Well that was fun," I said "I agree well I can't stay long unfortunately better go see you two later," Vincent said smiled as I nodded waved...
(Aftermath - Night)
"...Phew," I said walking Riko off home "Sure exhausting night eh?" I asked smiled "...?" Riko stared at me "It was something else isn't it Riko-chan hehe," I said grinning "Well you did have us worried back there," Riko said, "Oh yeah I guess it happens to everyone eh?" I asked "My chest was hurting so I don't know what but it stop hurting for a while" I explained as Riko's eyes widened "Do you need to go check the hospital?" Riko asked concerned "Ah alright I'll check this weekend alright?" I asked smiled then waved Riko bye she left as I saw few thugs nodded to one or another...
(Wha? Shit...) I thought glared eyes opened yellow...
To Be Continued...
(A/N - THAT WAS SO LONGGGGGG! Also, I didn't do much to express the fact Leon is always busy that even don't have time to stay long enough for a moment with everyone else. Also, something interesting would happen in the next chapters)
