sry this chap take too long...anyway enjoy...^^


Extra burden

The five of them look at their own music scores, they haven't even practice it so they have less confident they wouldn't hit the wrong note, or maybe Ritsu hit the wrong rhythm...

Sawako sensei came in their own dressing room with a bag full of juices, she came in and found out that the room was filled with a kind of... too serious air...

"Minna, take a break... What about some juices?" The five of them turned to look at Sawako sensei, and then dumbly nodded since they can't force their brain juice to remember all this... Yui went over to Sawako sensei and took a can of carbonate strawberry juice, while Mio passed the others some other cans.

"So... How it's going on?" Sawako sensei asked, as if she was too stupid enough to notice nothing's right... "Even though we have already played it once beside the street, but that was long enough for us to remember..."

"I hope we can make it up in time..." Tsumugi said in silence, and the others keep quiet. Sawako sensei sighed, "Don't worry, you still have time, there's a few more teams to go..."

"Un." Then the rest was silence. Everyone's focusing on their scores, Yui tired to practice them with her air 'guitar', and the others practiced their own way.

Hours went by, all the teams were done performing, and they were called up to meet the judges. "We thank you for all your hard work today, but no matter you lose or win, it doesn't matter... They said, 'Friendship comes first, then competition second.' I hope you all can understand this, and enjoyed the rest of the competition."

Everyone claps their hands, the judge bow and walk down the stage. They were given extra five minutes to take a break due to some team perform late, and this was an extra chance for the five of them to polish up their song, stances, position and notes.

Five minutes passed by, the 'wing' band went to perform first. Yes, incredible, their songs, their rhythm everything it was just too perfect. And that was their extra burden. After the 'wing' band performed, Jyan smirked at Azusa. Azusa just shot a glare at Jyan, her fist clenches hard. 'I'll never lose to you, Jyan!'

They were second to perform, their shaking legs can't seem to bring them up stage, Yui looks worried and that was a bad sign! Sawako sensei sighed and walked up to those, she pats Azusa and Yui's head, giving her best smile...

"You know what girls?"

The five of them turned to look at Sawako sensei. They asked together. "What's it?"

"You look super Moe in these costumes!"

The five of them sighed and quickly turned away from Sawako sensei, 'when she'll ever learn?'

The stage was set ready for the girls to perform, yeah... Maybe Sawako sensei's so lame cheering did the job; they felt their heart lighter again. They sit or mostly stand in their own position. Everyone drew a long breath; Tsumugi shows Ritsu an 'I'm ready' sign, then to Yui, Mio and Azusa. All of them nodded.

'Well, I hope this go on well...' Thought Ritsu as she hit drumstick together. "One, two, one two three four!"

Tsumugi: ima watashi no negaigoto ga

Kanau naraba tsubasa ga hoshii

If I can get one wish

To come true right now, I want a pair of wings

Yui: kono senaka Ni tori no you Ni

Shiroi tsubasa tsukete kudasai

Please grant me white wings

On my back like a bird

Tsumugi and Yui: kono oozora Ni tsubasa WO hiroge

Tonde yukitai yo

In this huge sky I wanna

Spread my wings and fly

Kanashimi no nai jiyuu Na sora e

Tsubasa hatamekase yukitai

Towards the free sky with no sadness

I wanna flap my wings and soar

Ritsu: ima tomi to ka meiyo naraba

Iranai kedo tsubasa ga hoshii

I have no need for wealth or fame

All I want now is a set of wings

Mio: kodomo no toki yumemita koto

Ima mo onaji yume Ni mite iru

I still dream of those things

That I've dreamed about when I was little

Ritsu and Mio: kono oozora Ni tsubasa WO hiroge

Tonde yukitai yo

In this huge sky I wanna

Spread my wings and fly

Kanashimi no nai jiyuu Na sora e

Tsubasa hatamekase yukitai

Towards the free sky with no sadness

I wanna flap my wings and soar

Azusa: kono oozora Ni tsubasa WO hiroge

Tonde yukitai yo

In this huge sky I wanna

Spread my wings and fly

Kanashimi no nai jiyuu Na sora e

Tsubasa hatamekase

Towards the free sky with no sadness

I wanna flap my wings and soar

Yui, Mio, Ritsu, Tsumugi and Azusa: kono oozora Ni tsubasa WO hiroge

Tonde yukitai yo

In this huge sky I wanna

Spread my wings and fly

Kanashimi no nai jiyuu Na sora e

Tsubasa hatamekase yukitai

Towards the free sky with no sadness

I wanna flap my wings and soar

All of them sighed heavily, tired of performing and singing the whole day. Some of the band cheered, in the crowd Mio sees something or someone she didn't really expected to see...

Megumi Sogabe!?

She, Megumi Sogabe, was the student council before Nodoka, and also the president of her own fan club, then later was succeeded by Nodoka as well... How she knows!!???

They were later been shooed down the stage because they kind of standing on the stage too long. Azusa passed by Jyan, Jyan gave her his dirty look, so obviously pissing off her.

Azusa sticks her tongue out to Jyan and left him quickly... After few hours of boredom and the mixture of fear, the results were going to announce.

"Congratulation to them being the top five and they will proceed to the final round!" Mr. Aren said, the crowd went wild, they were so eager, who'll be the top five!?

"And the fifth place goes to..."

Everyone hold their breath, the Keiron music club was trembling hard, please oh Kami! They must proceed to the final round! For the sake of Budokan!

"Congratulations! After School Tea Time!!!"


Yosh, i hope the nxt chap'll be up soon!chao!
