Yui Hanami ! Aikatsu is starting"
Chapter 3 : Audition and New Friend
Yui POV
I rushed towards the school building seeing its already crowded with students. The students are looking at...an Audition Board.
Ding Dong
I rushed to my classroom with the other students also going to their classes. Anna sensei entered when i sat on my usual spot.
"Morning honey. Today i have good news! Another YEARLY SCHOOL PROJECT!". She wrote on the black board 'Audition Search' really big. I raised my hand ready to ask a question
"Ano...what is an Audition Search?" I asked
"Well, glad that you asked Hanami. An Audition Search is a yearly school project. In this project you'll be doing a random audition in partners from other classes. Class 1-2, 1-4, 1-6, 1-8, and 1-10 will go to the other classes and find their partners with the same number. Now let's...LOTTERY!"
Timeskip~
In the end, i got number 2 in blue paper. Blue paper = class 1-9
Most students already left leaving me and a few students. I went to find class 1-9.
10 minutes later i found it. I ran towards the door and bumped into another student and we both fell.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" I repeated apologizing. "Ano...are you from class 1-9? Do you know who got number 2 in you class?"
"Well you shouldn't have ran especially inside. Yes i'm from class 1-9. And..." she pulls out a piece of paper showing a writing of...2!
"I'm number 2"
"EHHH!"
"I'm Remi Tsukada. And you are?"
"I-i'm Yui H-Hanami. Nice to m-meet you...?" I'm still shocked that she's my partner for the Audition Search.
Soon she dragged me somewhere.
Remi POV~
"So another Yearly Project came! Audition Search! Partnering up with other students from other classes! All going to be decided by L-O-T-T-E-R-Y!" The happy go lucky teacher said in class.
I kept looking at the window. Kazuki-sensei then grabbed a box and start going around every desk. I got number 2. I wonder what my partner will be like.
10 minutes she hasn't come. Getting bored i was about to go out of the classroom. Then i saw a pinknette running towards our class from one of the class door window. I opened the door only to fall down with her.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" She repeated apologizing. "Ano...are you from class 1-9? Do you know who got number 2 in you class?"
So she's number 2. She's definitely a clumsy person. I can't believe she's my partner. Wait...isn't she the girl who did a special appeal.
"Well you shouldn't have ran especially inside. Yes i'm from class 1-9. And..." i pulled out the lottery paper "I'm number 2"
"EHHH!"
"I'm Remi Tsukada. And you are?" I introduced myself
"I-i'm Yui H-Hanami. Nice to m-meet you...?" She seemed shock about me being her partner
I dragged her to the audition board and start looking for a duet audition.
Yui POV~
She dragged me to the audition board. I looked up and saw a chart full of duet auditions for the project. Most of them already been crossed which probably mean their already taken. All thats left are probaly the ones others don't want or the ones which seemed hard.
'Choco Girls Audition : Looking for two girls to be in a newly open chocolate shop commercial. The winners will be in it and be rewarded with one of our specialty which is matcha-choco roll cake, berry-chocolate parfait, and choco-flower cake. Audition held in 12 July in front of the newly open shop called Chocolate Dream at KiraKira District'. After reading the description about it, i turned to Remi.
"Remi-chan, Let's be Choco Girls!" I said as i pointed to the board where the poster. She looked it up, she turned to me and nodded.
"But the audition is tomorrow which mean we only have today to practice" Remi said
"Then let's practice now!" I said excitedly
After that, we went to the practice room and start with practicing our dancing. After dancing for an hour, we practice our singing. We went to a building next to the classes building, the gym. It was bigger than i thought. A huge trampoline stood at the middle, and there are many other equipments there too. Remi went to the trampoline. She jumped really high, after every 5 high jumps she did a cool pose. She looked at me. I didn't understand her look at first. Then i realise its my turn.
I jumped quite low since i'm afraid of when i jumped high, i might ended up jumping of the trampoline. After a very hard time of trying, i finally able to get a cute pose even though its quite awkward. I climbed down the trampoline and lay down on the floor.
"So what song are we doing?" Remi-chan asked. She handed me a paper filled with song titles. AND I DON'T KNOW ANY OF THE SONGS!
"H-How about the song from the welcoming live?"
"AikatsuStep?" i nodded, " Mm...I guess thats alright besides it seems that its the only song you knew" i blushed embarassment. 'How can she read my mind ?!'
We practiced dancing and singing again.
"I'm exhausted. I even only did one pose instead of more than one on the trampoline" I panted
"Well your dancing was off by one and a half beat. But your singing was better than your dancing even though you can't hit the high notes very well" Remi-chan pointed out
"Ne Remi-chan. Why did you become an idol?" i asked
It was filled with silence for a moment until Remi-chan spoke.
"Well its a secret and you still need to earn my trust so that you won't tell anyone" After she said that she walked away.
Remi POV~
"Ne Remi-chan. Why did you become an idol?" the question strucked me.
Why did I become an idol? The question keeps repeating every time i thought about the answer.
"Well its a secret and you still need to earn my trust so that you won't tell anyone" i lied
After i said that i walked outside the gym leaving Yui at the gym. I decided to go run some laps at the trackfield. I ran there while thinking for an answer to the question that Yui asked before i left.
Yui POV~
I sat there after Remi-chan left. She doesn't trust me yet...i need to earn her trust. I went to find her seeing its almost evening with the sky colored with orange and a little bit of pink and yellow.
I found her running in the trackfield. 'She worked really hard to be a great idol. I finally understand her' i smiled at her hard work. I ran to the trackfield joining her by running next to her. She looked at me and i smiled at her.
Remi POV~
I hear running footsteps getting nearer. I looked to my right seeing Yui running beside me. And she smiled at me. I smiled back to her and continued running with her beside me.
Yui POV~
After many laps of running, i sat on one of the bench. Remi-chan already went back inside.
I looked at the sky getting darker. I went back to my room getting a soothing bath and changed into my casual clothes. The stomach grumbled which mean its DINNER TIME!
I went to the cafeteria seeing there are a few students already dressed in their casual clothes. I went to the menu board. 'Hambagu set, Curry set, or Tempura set...Wah i want them all but then i'll gain whole lot of weight and i don't want looking chubby and round especially when tomorrow there's an audition'. I picked the curry set and went to sit on one of the empty tables.
"Ittadakimasu!" i took a spoonful of curry rice. "Mmmm...OISHII!" I took another spoonful of the curry rice.
"Can i sit here?" a voice said. Remi-chan
"Eh...Remi-chan you're still wearing your jersey?" i asked after she sat across me
"Well i went to practice some more after running and then i was already hungry on my way back to the dorms. And i was pretty close to the cafeteria so...why not? Ittadakimasu" she explained
"Remi-chan, you said i still didn't earn your trust. Will i earn it if i told you why i became an idol?" i asked and she looked at me and nodded
"Well i became an idol because when i first saw Himeko-senpai's performance seeing how everyone happy and cheering made me want to make people do the same thing when they see me on stage," i said to her "So how about you?"
"Well i became an idol because...i want to find my own radiant. By being an idol, i can audition for something which is easier and i like dancing, singing, and acting ever since i was little," she said "And i think i'll trust you more after the audition tomorrow. I'll be leaving now" with that she left, leaving me smiling at her reason
~Timeskip To Tomorrow
We both sat down at the back of the bus heading to Kira Kira District. I plugged my earphone to my Aikatsu phone and give one of the earplugs to Remi-chan. I played AikatsuStep.
We finally made it to the location seeing a quite large shop with a stage at the front of it. Many other students from many other idol schools. We signed up. There are 10 partners and we got number 3. We went to the back of the stage afterwards.
"Ne can i see your school dress and i'll show you mine?" I asked
"Sure" we pulled out our cards.
"Mine is pink rosette coord. A cute type school dress. The color pink will give anyone a cute personality. With the school's rose emblem at the side of the skirt makes me an official Rosette Academy student." I said showing my cards to her
"Mine is blue rosette coord. A cool type dress. The color of blue can be shown with the color of black to make anyone cool. With school's rose emblem at the side of the skirt makes me an official Rosette Academy student" she said showing her card
"Ms. Hanami and Ms. Tsukada please proceed to the stage"
We nodded at each other.
"Yui Hanami! Ready to Shine!"
"Remi Tsukada Kokoro Jūden!"
I ran to one of the machines and place my id card and school dress cards into each slot. And Remi-chan did the same. The room starts to lit up. The closet opens and i ran in. I change into my school dress and did an awkward pose since i still don't know what to do. We entered the stage. And we start singing AikatsuStep.

(Yui's aura : chp 1. But the size of the aura is smaller)
Himeko POV~
I watch Yui-chan's performance using the tv screen in the headmistress office with her.
"Seems her aura is normal for today. What do you think headmistress?" I said while looking at the screen
"She did quite marvelous and her partner to, Remi Tsukada-san is it?"
I nodded taking a sip from my tea.
Yui POV~
After 7 more performances, all of us were called to the stage. Seeing many people waiting for the opening of the newly shop. The owner step into the stage.
"Thank you for signing up for this audition. Everyone did a great job but as you can see there can only be one to win. Now the winner of this audition and will be in our commercial is... Ms. Yui Hanami and Ms. Remi Tsukada" the owner applaud and also the audience. The owner went to us and give us a pair of scissors with a red ribbon tied to it. We went to the entrance and cut the ribbon together.
"We will start tomorrow morning at the Starry Meadow to do the first scene. And enjoy your other reward"
"Hai" we said in unison "Arigatou gozaimasu" and then we went to eat the cakes.
While eating the cakes i decided to break the silence between us.
"Ne Remi-chan, you said if we won the audition you'll trust me more, right?" I asked
"Yea. And i trust you. Ne can we be friends starting right now?"
"Mm! We're already friends right"
After that the rest of the day is about talking and laughing together while enjoying our treats.
