Author's Note: This will be a special type of fan fiction, I require that you, the reader, must play the song(s) of U's through the Net, or in your head. As such I will be placing links of the songs (you-tube) here and the lyrics as well, both in romanji and english. Whatever you prefer. Thank you for your understanding.
Miracle 4: Breakdown
"Miki, what should we do?" Yuki's worried expression was what Miki saw
"I... Don't know..." Miki said as they have both been somber for a while now
"We should try to do something at least!" Yuki suggested
"We only have few more nights to stay in this hotel for free. What do you think we can do in just a few days?" Miki's serious tone hit Yuki badly as she looks down. Miki held onto Yuki's shoulders
"We'll just have to be there for her when she needs us. Right now, it's best to leave her alone" Yuki said and Yuki could only frown as she remembered what happened
Flashback
"The final group that will proceed to the finals will be... PhantasyGirls!"
The crowd went wild, the fans cheered for the winners of the second round. An expression of disbelief appeared on the faces of Miki and Yuki but no one seemed more devastated than Saki who seems to have all her energy sucked out of her.
"Everyone... I'm... Sorry..." Saki ran away from the venue
"Saki!" Yuki ran after Saki while Miki trailed behind her. It was not until they ran back to the hotel where Saki went up the elevator already. Yuki and Miki pressed on the button to get on another elevator to continue their pursuit.
Once they entered the room, they saw Saki rolled up in sheets; sobbing so much knowing that the loss was so devastating to her
"Saki... It's not your fault" Yuki went to embrace the rolled up Saki. Miki joins in the embrace "We did our best. Saki."
Saki opened her mouth but no voice was heard. Her eyes widened as she tried to put effort into speaking. Yuki and Miki took notice as they were shocked that Saki lost her voice again. Saki cried out a cascade of tears while Yuki and Saki embrace her.
Flashback End
The hotel room contained a gloomy atmosphere. Inside it is a devastated girl who couldn't come to terms with losing.
Why...? Why...?
To add more to my suffering... I lost my voice...
So my dream is all for naught...? Being a school idol... Even if we are devoting our performances for our favorite idols, the U's, it still wasn't enough... I couldn't get up there, meet my idols and learn so much...
What else can I do...?
Yuki and Miki were out shopping in Akihabara so that they can get "souvenirs" for their families and friends who will be awaiting their return in a few days.
"Wow! I want it! I want it all!" Yuki seems to have forgotten about Saki and focused on shopping while Miki's in thought about how to cheer Saki up.
Yuki and Miki enjoy themselves as they shop for souvenirs and also getting some for Saki on the way. "We sure have bought a lot!" Yuki held tons of plastic bags and some are hanging off her arms
Miki facepalmed herself in disbelief "You really go too far when you have lots of money."
"But you only live once! It's best to continuously spend our money so that we can enjoy!" Yuki said while Miki facepalmed again "I don't think you see the use of a future"
They laughed after their "argument" and walked around. They see from afar a familiar girl with short brunette hair. "Hey, Miki. Does that look like Saki?" Yuki pointed towards the girl and Miki looked towards the pointed direction.
"It looks like her." Miki squinted a bit "Let's follow her"
Yuki nodded as they stalked the short haired brunette. They followed her around until she turned to face her stalkers. It was a bit shocking as they were right on the dot.
"Saki, what are you doing without telling us?" Miki asked concernigly
Saki looks at them and tried to speak but her voice wasn't able to leave her mouth, her head looks down on the floor in a defeated manner but she quickly turns to face them and use their secret sign language.
"I'm just taking a stroll on my own, I wanted to get some fresh air" Miki sighed "I understand but can you at least mail us?"
"I forgot to, I'm sorry" Saki followed with a bow. Yuki smiled at Saki "Just take care of yourself ok? Mail us when things go wrong" Saki smiled back at Yuki "I will"
"We'll leave you alone now. Be back at the hotel at 6pm ok?" Miki said acting like their guardian as she received a warm smile from Saki "I'll be back then"
They parted ways, Miki sighed "Miki, you're still uptight" Yuki smirked as Miki responds with a hit to her head "OW!"
My encounter with my best friends was a little unexpected but it didn't stop me from doing what I wanted to do.
I want to perform on that stage at least once. I'll feel fulfilled even if I didn't win.
I walked along the sidewalk to get myself to the competition grounds. The final stage looked so magnificent, just like on TV. The place was practically empty, with a few people in my line of sight.
I went on the stage and stood on the center of the stage.
It felt different from the other stage I performed on. This one was huge, there is a huge space in front of the stage that's big enough to hold thousands of people.
I clenched my fists and placed them on my chest.
I know this will mean nothing to others but I want to perform on this stage and feel fulfilled.
I raised my hand in the air and imagined that the song is being played. I sang and danced to my heart's content without giving a care in the world.
I was surprised that I heard my voice again but I continued singing.
Play the song "Kira-Kira Sensation" here either in your head or through the net ( watch?v=WjVsNohlL6I)
Romanji Lyrics:
Donna ashita ga matterun darou? Nante ne
(Boku wa) Bokutachi wa sukoshi zutsu tesaguri shi teta
Hagemashi atte butsukari atta tokide sae
(Wakatteta) onnaji yume o mi teru to
Mezasu no wa ano taiyou
Ookina kagayaki o tsukamaeru
Itsuka no negai e to chikadzuite
Hikari no naka de utaunda senseishon!
Kiseki sore wa ima sa koko nanda
Minna no omoi ga michibiita basho nanda
Dakara hontou ni ima o tanoshinde
Minna de kanaeru monogatari yume no Story
[Mabushii na!] [Ii na!] [Oide yo!]
[Ureshii na!] [Ii na!] [Motto ne!]
Hitotsu ni nare kokoro… KiRa - KiRa!
Kyou mo ouen o kansha shi teru yo! Tte ne
(Kimi to) Kimitachi to kataritai yorokobi no chouten
Kotoba dake ja tsutae kirenai yo dou suru?
(Konna toki) utau yo utau shika nai
Hitori zutsu tobidashite
Nidoto nai shunkan o tsukamaeru
Itsuka no negaigoto oboe teru?
Hikari no naka de odorou yo senseishon!
Boku to kimi de kita yo koko made
Minna no omoi ga todoita yo arigatou
Tsuini isshoni kita yo tanoshimou
Minna de kanaeru monogatari honki Story
[Mabushii ne!] [Ii ne!] [Kocchi da!]
[Ureshii ne!] [Ii ne!] [Motto da!]
Owaranai de yume wa…
KiRa - KiRa… KiRa – KiRa!
Hi! Hi! Yume wa yume wa owaranai
Hitori zutsu tobidashite
Nidoto nai shunkan o tsukamaeru
Itsuka no negaigoto oboe teru?
Hikari no naka de odorou yo senseishon!
Boku to kimi de kita yo koko made
Minna no omoi ga todoita yo arigatou
Tsuini isshoni kita yo tanoshimou
Minna de kanaeru monogatari honki Story
Kiseki sore wa ima sa koko nanda
Minna no omoi ga michibiita basho nanda
Dakara hontou ni ima o tanoshinde
Minna de kanaeru monogatari yume no Story
[Mabushii na!] [Ii na!] [Oide yo!]
[Ureshii na!] [Ii na!] [Motto ne!]
Hitotsu ni nare kokoro… KiRa – KiRa! !
English Lyrics
What kind of future awaits us? While wondering that
(I have been) We all have been slowly fumbling along our way
Encouraging one another, and even when we clashed
(We knew) We shared the same dream
What we aim for is that sun
To capture that great brilliance
We're getting closer to fulfilling our wishes
Let's sing our Sensations within the light!
The miracle is right here and now
Everyone's feelings led them to this place
That's why we'll enjoy this moment
The story that we bring to life together, the Story of our dreams
"It's dazzling!" "It's great!" "Come over here!"
"I'm happy!" "It's great!" "Come closer!"
Our hearts become one... and sparkle!
Once again today, I am grateful for all the support
(With you) I want to talk with all of you, that's the peak of joy
It can't be expressed with words alone; What should we do?
(At times like these) Let's sing, we have to sing
One by one we leap forward
To capture this moment that won't come twice
Do you still remember the wishes you once made?
Let's dance our Sensations within the light!
With you I've made it here, up to this point
Everyone's feelings reached us, thank you
Finally we made it here together, so let's enjoy ourselves
The story that we bring to life together, our earnest Story
"It's dazzling!" "It's great!" "Over here!"
"I'm happy!" "It's great!" "Come closer!"
Our unending dream is
Sparkling... Sparkling!
Hi! Hi! Our dream is never ending!
One by one we leap forward
To capture this moment that won't come twice
Do you still remember the wishes you once made?
Let's dance our Sensations within the light!
With you I've made it here, up to this point
Everyone's feelings reached us, thank you
Finally we made it here together, so let's enjoy ourselves
The story that we bring to life together, our earnest Story
The miracle is right here and now
Everyone's feelings led them to this place
That's why we'll enjoy this moment
The story that we bring to life together, the Story of our dreams
"It's dazzling!" "It's great!" "Come over here!"
"I'm happy!" "It's great!" "Come closer!"
Our hearts become one... and sparkle!
I took a deep breath and smiled at what I just did. I know now that I'm fulfilled enough to pass by.
I heard claps from the few people here who watched me. I was so happy that I bowed before them.
I think... I know what my purpose is for doing these.
It's not just for me...
It's also for the viewers who watch me...
Just like how I watch the U's...
