Disclaimer: I do not own Skip Beat or any of its characters. Thank you. Also, I am doing a few cameos in this chapter to include characters from The One and Paradise Kiss, neither of which I own. Disclaimer complete. Also to those worried it was a Sho and Kyoko pairing. Worry not; things get far more complicated than that. Hopefully you'll find a bit more humor in there as well.

3 MONTHS LATER

~Kyoko~

It had been a long three months since she'd left Japan. Certainly did not feel like three months. The things that one could accomplish in three months' time amazed her.

"Miaka, your documents from the agency are ready for signature." Saena's clipped tones came from the other end of the phone.

"Thanks a bunch Ms. Mogami, Miaka is so very happy you could help make her dreams come true!"

"….." the phone clapped shut and the dial tone sounded. Well, that was the end of that.

Miaka. That's what she called herself now. It was a fusion of Kyoko and Mogami and fit her new image perfectly. When she thought of it, she was reminded of a very famous manga heroine that she just so enjoyed. She ran her fingers through her silky powder blue hair. Change was good. Kyoko Mogami was another life. It was almost as if she didn't exist. Miaka liked that. She signed her LME contract with great flourish and a charming smile for Ms. Mogami's errand boy. She'd been a very busy girl since arriving in Korea. Miaka's career as a model gained popularity fairly quickly. With the aid of the ever so talented, Jelly Woods and Miaka's own past life experience with acting, the transition hadn't been very hard at all. Modeling was like acting without words. Today she was shooting with a very famously noted model by the name of Angus Lanson. Miaka was excited high profile jobs are what she lived for. It also helped that the man was so gorgeous; he oozed sex without even trying. Today's shoot was for the super chic new line of nail design. How on Earth they intended to incorporate Angus was beyond Miaka but she didn't care as long as she was doing what she loved. One day, she'd branch into acting and then the whole world would be her stage. No one could outshine the fairy of Japan.

"Miaka, make up is ready for you!"

"Miaka is coming!"

~PRESIDENT~

"The Fairy of Japan?" Yashiro read aloud incredulously, flipping through the portfolio. Glancing up at the President, he fumbled over himself.

"Yes. Don't scowl, Ren, it'll mar your handsome features." the President smiled warmly. Yashiro noticed that though the smile was genuine it also seemed a bit sad.

"You are recruiting her for the All Season campaign with George Koizumi?" Ren asked, not particularly interested, though not averse to the idea.

"I think it would be most advantageous for us to capitalize on her fame. She could take the international stage by storm under the right guidance and she certainly has that."

"She has a mentor?" Yashiro-san said, curious.

"Not just one. Several. Very famous ones at that. Cain Lele and Caroline Hayaska. She has other connections in the modelling world, I'm sure, but she was quick to become a favorite with them. Though no one is still very sure how in the world she got that first gig with the Lanson boy. "

"Lanson…..ah. Noted photographer. Twin of the male model, Angus. Correct?" Yashiro recited through memory. He'd had a lot of time to himself recently.

"Yes. If we pull her for this campaign we are sure to pull that lot into our good graces and that would certainly be advantageous as it seems no one else is making nearly as much press."

"How can you be certain she will accept the offer, ?" Yashiro questioned.

"That part is simple. She belongs to LME. And due to terms and conditions in her contract she is bound to certain requests for job offers. However, to ensure that she performs without any hiccups, we need to bring the brood. I intend to harness and unleash the talent that is Miaka. I want to make her a triple threat."

"Which three threats would those be?" Ren murmured signaling for a glass of something strong.

"She is a FANTASTIC model. Modelling shouldn't be so hard to transition into acting. Then we just add the singing or dancing…..whichever she prefers."

"Great. Well, I've got to get to a meeting, Mr. President. Pleasure seeing you again." Ren smiled and exited, not even waiting for Yashiro.

"He didn't hear a single word I said, did he?"

"Not a single one." Yashiro confirmed.

"Amazing. If only I had that ability." The President stroked his chin.

"Yes, sir, if only we all did. Well, I best get going."

"Ah, Yashiro-san! "

"Yes, sir?" padded lightly back over to the President.

"Is he still…moping?" The President made the oddest faces sometimes.

"Every day, sir."

"Fabulous." Larry mumbled to himself.
