A/N: Hello, in my opinion this chapter is worse than the original. I think Tsugaru was supposed to be talking a little more, there was supposed to be more words, less information on Stride than what is actually mentioned by Tsubasa, etc.
Disclaimer: I do not own STARMYU or its characters, I only own Tsugaru.
Chapter Eight: War and Piece
Yuta's POV
Itsuki was explaining the performances and I was really excited about it, the only ones who didn't seem excited were: Toru, who had a worried expression, Kaito who had a contemplative expression, and Kakeru and Shu who both had on serious expressions. This is supposed to be fun so it annoyed me that they were so serious about this "this is so exciting!" I said before Kakeru spoke up saying it's a professional's environment.
"He said that because you guys are being way too serious" Tsugaru said before Toru said he was dizzy, I ran up on the stage and spoke "this is supposed to be fun, for the audience and ourselves guys" I told them before Itsuki spoke up. He told us it wasn't just the piece but also the staging and publicity and finding a piece is going to be hard anyway since it isn't easy.
"I want to dance with the person I admire so there's no room to be nervous Toru" I said annoyed at what Kaito said is a compliment or an insult since the tone said either. "Let's make a fun performance!" I said after Kakeru said something like 'I wouldn't be me if I wasn't charismatic' or something.
I would rather choose the outdoor stage over the other halls but I'm guessing the Grand Hall will be fine with the others. When we left the hall I asked them if they wanted the Grand hall, Kaito explained his reasons for wanting the hall but Toru seemed more nervous of the amount of people it holds.
Tsugaru walked in front of us stopping us from continuing which I didn't like since I know he has something up his sleeve especially when Kakeru said he's performed for over three thousand people. "Yuta has performed for over five thousand Kakeru" he said shocking them making me push past my brother "they don't need to know that since they're not a part of it Tsugaru" I said.
"We're being watched Yuta" Tsugaru told me and I nodded "hey I know" I said but continued walking regardless. I handed in our form and saw that Tatsumi was doing the same with the same hall to which isn't surprising since it is Tsubasa in charge of the team.
I was in a room with my team, two of the Kao council members, and team Hiragi, it was for the decision on who gets the slot we both applied for. I ended up losing but I didn't mind "I wish you would have said the French rules, if I had known those I wouldn't have been so scatterbrained" I said surprising them.
"I know those rules better than Japanese ones" I said before we headed to the practice room to discuss something. Itsuki told us we had to apply for funds soon to which will be a lot easier than the piece.
Itsuki's POV
I was walking under the bridge when I saw Akatsuki I figured he had something up his sleeve hearing what he said after small talk. "My fate is bigger than his responsibilities to Ayanagi Akatsuki, just what are you to him by the way?" I asked after he said Tsubasa has responsibilities.
Yuta's POV
When I listed some ideas for the piece Kakeru and Kaito were starting to argue again when Kaito said something true but Kakeru did as well, however we are amateurs even if Kakeru doesn't like it. I asked Toru about the play he was talking about, I was really wanting to go but then Kaito and Kakeru reminded me about the piece which reminded me I won't have time to watch it since I won't be here.
I watched as Shu left before we headed to our dorms, when they mentioned that we were going off topic I thanked them which in turn confused them. "I almost forgot I won't be here when this school year ends so thank you for reminding me" I said when they asked why I thank them.
Itsuki's POV
"No one else applied for the slot so that's the only reason we got it" I said when Tsubasa asked why I didn't have them apply for the Small hall. "Yuta already told you why you ended up like this" I heard Tsugaru say and I looked to my right to see he was wearing a smirk which made me curious but I didn't ask.
Yuta's POV
We were outside the Grand Hall when Shu said the facilities here are impressive, I know he wasn't there for the entrance ceremony so I didn't say anything before we walked into the hall. I was so excited at the thought of singing on the stage that I did almost do that but I didn't since that would be stupid of me.
Third Person POV (1)
Four of the Kao council members were in Tsubasa's office complaining about how Itsuki's actions 'degrade' the reputation of the Kao council and Ayanagi Academy which was annoying Tsubasa. Tsubasa asked what they wanted him to do and the answer was something he didn't want to risk "if you want to protect the traditions so much then don't degrade his team" I said angering Akatsuki.
"The heir to Stride, a dimension that has been letting us base our traditions off of them since this school was created, just so happens to be on the team" Tsubasa said surprising them. "Who's the heir to the throne of Stride?" Yuzuriha asked making Tsubasa sigh "Yuta Hoshitani is the 'revolutionary' you keep degrading, the reason that the school and traditions have changed so much" Tsubasa said shocking Akatsuki and Sakuya.
Tsubasa dismissed them once they said they had nothing more to say, they left Akatsuki wondering how his plan turned against him so easily. Every one of the members of Team Otori were dealing with the lack of piece by either: working, thinking, exercise, or hobbies.
Everything was dead at an outdoor stage because they still had no idea of what to do about a piece for the performance, until Itsuki arrived anyway.
*My heart's beating faster
I'm getting excited
All right! Everything will turn out all right somehow
Sometimes we're wrong
Sometimes we go out of bounds
Everything is correct
Everything sparkles
Let's try doing things we're good at and not good at! (Yeah!)
Everyone's different, but that's good, too! (Good!)
It'll slowly get more fun (Yeah!)
We can make what we imagine happen
What about out dream?!
Is it over there?!
Bursting out and shining the way we want
Doing things our way
We're not alone, let's become one
Even if we're small, gather close
We'll show you a dream you've never seen before
(Are you OK?)
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
(Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
(Dream go!)*
They decided to call the performance we're doing 'Stardust Musical' and the news spread like wildfire to where everyone wants to know what they're doing. Shu said he would do the poster so Kaito said he'll apply for the equipment which Yuta was grateful for, when Shu was done with the poster it wasn't very good in their opinions.
A/N: Hello, I finished writing this at 2:07 P.M. on June 25, 2016.
1) This was where I decided to do the third person since it keeps changing and it's annoying to have to write 's POV'every other paragraph.
Young Tsubasa looks like a small Kaito, I realized this when I watched the episode to write the original version pf this chapter. I hope you like this chapter and will continue reading, I'll see you on Monday.
