Chapter 7: An Impromptu Performance – Part 2

"Yes… you three…" said the butler.

"But why…?" asked Lilia, "Why us? Why are you betting on us to win…?"

"Just do. I just feel that you all deserve the break that the students here had already taken for granted." Said the butler, then he walked towards the staircase.

"I'll let you practice whatever routine you'll use in the Elimination. If ever you'll pass, I'll let you use this part of the Academy, you and whoever students joins your Unit." Then he went downstairs.

The girls are now left with a confusion of who the butler really is, with him saying that he's a previous student of the Academy. But they didn't wasted time. They started to practice the song they once performed in their room. It's not much but they think it's the best to perform what they have already done and they think will show their nature.

In minutes they finished the routine, perfecting the steps, until the moment of truth came.

"Team No. 102 of Auralee City: Lilia, Luna and Krystal, Please proceed to the Gymnasium."

"Let's go…" said Lilia, with a look of determination on her face. Then the three girls went down, and headed for the Gymnasium which was beside the Grand Ball itself. Standing in front of the wooden door that maybe the door to their success, Lilia opened the heavy oak door and there, they saw the three Idol Faculty members, which they are sure that they don't really know.

"Good morning, STA Officials…" said the three, bowing to them. One of them ushered the girls to go to the stage.

"You're such cute girls…" said the middle member, "How old are you…?"

"We're all 15 year-olds." Replied Krystal.

"How nice," said the rightmost member, "What're you going to perform…?"

"START: DASH! By μ's" replied Lilia.

"Well then, start~" said the leftmost member.

The girls went to their formations and started.

All : I say….

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Start:Dash!

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Start:Dash!

[They started changing places, Luna being the center, and Krystal and Lilia at the sides.]

Luna : Ubuge no kotoritachi mo
Itsu ka sora ni habataku
Ooki na tsuyoi tsubasa de tobu

[They changed places again, this time, Krystal is the center; and on the 3rd line of the song, she is replaced by Lilia.]

Krystal : Akiramecha dame nan da
Sono hi ga zettai kuru
Lilia : Kimi mo Kanjiteru yo ne
Hajimari no kodou

[Here they switch places every line that they take, except the 4th line.]

Luna : Ashita yo kaware!
Krystal : Kibou ni kaware!
Lilia : Mabushii hikari ni terasarete kaware
All : START!

[In the chorus, Lilia remains the center although they move in different places.]

Lilia : Kanashimi ni tozasarete
Naku dake no kimi ja nai
Atsui mune Kitto mirai wo kirihiraku hazu sa
Krystal and Luna : Kanashimi ni tozasarete
Naku dake ja tsumaranai
Luna : Kitto (Krystal : Kitto) Kimi no (Yume no)
Lilia : Chikara (Luna : Ima wo) Ugokasu chikara
All : Shinjiteru yo…Dakara START!

All : Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Start:Dash!

[Song ends, with them slowly raising their hands, as if reaching for the skies.]

The girls ended their act, and the members seemed to be awed by their performance. The members applauded them, and then they were asked to leave.

"Thank you so much for that wonderful performance." Said the middle member. "May the Muse choose you."

"Thank you, Idol Faculty members." Said the girls, then they bowed before leaving the stage.

The girls rushed to get out of the gymnasium, and there they were greeted by their oh-so-loyal butler.

"How's it ...?" he asked, walking towards them.

"Well, I do think we did nice..." replied Luna, shyly smiling.

"Well, why don't you go to the cafeteria to loosen up?" he suggested, "It's almost lunch anyway. ^o^"

The girls looked at their wristwatches. It was almost 11:30.

"Let's go!"
