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 5: U's/K-I Trio
Back at the hotel, where Miki and Yuki were waiting for Saki. Their watchful eyes were on their clocks/watches especially as the time stated 6pm. Worried expressions were worn on both of their faces. Waiting for Saki for at least a few more minutes until they snap and search for their mute friend.
Knock Knock
Miki opened the door but couldn't hold her surprise "U's?!" Yuki dashed towards the door hearing the word U's and she also thrives in excitement "It's really them!" but it was only two members of the U's: Sonoda Umi and Minami Kotori. "Good evening, may we come in?" Umi asked the duo
"Um, sure... I'll be right back. I need to find my friend" Miki answered as she attempted to pass by them but Kotori held onto Miki's shoulder which stopped her in her tracks "Don't worry, Honoka-chan is with her."
Miki's confusion led her to blush a bit "You, know her?" Kotori nodded "We know you performed our songs, we're happy that you did, you know." Miki's ears perked up as she blushes even harder, Yuki is also on the same boat blushing that they received a complement from the U's. "Pardon the intrusion." Kotori said as she entered their hotel room with Umi following her . Miki closes the door behind them as they all took a seat on the bed.
"So, I don't want to sound rude but why are you here? Shouldn't you be with another idol group that you're be assigned with?" Miki asked the duo.
"We wanted to help you grow into better school idols." Umi said
"You all did well in that performance" Kotori added
Miki and Yuki are hand-in-hand surprised to hear about it "You will really help us?"
"Yes, not only just help you grow. We want you to perform the opening of the finals." Umi smiled at them, Kotori smiles at them as well. They reached out their hands to Miki and Yuki as they stare at the hands in front of them.
Yuki immediately took hold of Kotori's hand "I'm in!" Then their attention is all on Miki who seems to be hesitating.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept until Saki accepts" Miki bowed before them. "I understand" Umi nodded "I was against being a school idol when Honoka brought it up. But I became a school idol because of her." Miki nodded "I'm the same, I never would've become a school idol if it weren't for Saki"
"So, how about we chat until the two arrive?" Kotori asked
I was so fulfilled. I saw the people leave the venue after my performance. I sighed and sat on the edge of the stage.
"Hey there." I turned to the person who called me. I couldn't believe my eyes so I rubbed them to get a clearer view. "Y-you're Honoka-san?" I still couldn't believe it at all that I'm on the same stage as Honoka-san.
"Yup! I've watched your performance. I liked it!" Honoka complemented me which caused me to blush "Th-thank you..."
Honoka smiled at me, it seemed like the greatest moment of my life to meet up with one of the U's and Honoka being my favorite made this the best day ever! I couldn't hold in my excitement any longer but I didn't know what to say!
"I say. Hey, hey, hey START:DASH. Hey, hey, hey START:DASH" Honoka sang and gestured me to take my turn. I blushed and did my best
"Ubuge no kotoritachi mo. Itsuka sora ni habataku. Ookina tsuyoi tsubasa de tobu" I finished my part and could only blush. Little did I know that we were both going to sing together until the end.
"How did it feel?" A sudden question popped in after our singing "It felt good" was my reply.
"Isn't it? I originally wanted to become a school idol in order to save my school." Her body shifted into a different direction as she looks up at the night sky. "I realized that it was fun to be an idol. Being able to do my best, to do my best to reach the hearts of many people, so that they know that we, the U's are here. I've wanted these feelings to reach them and I was able to achieve it." She turned to me "Are you going to do the same? Will your passion, your drive and your hard work reach out to them just like I have?"
In the spur of the moment, I felt like I had an epiphany, an epiphany to try my best and succeed. I knew I had to answer her right here and right now. My hands were on my chest and look at her directly in the eyes "Yes, I want to be able to do my best. To be able to express my feelings to everyone just like you did Honoka-san. I promise, I'll do my best." Honoka walked towards me and held my hands "I'm glad to hear that. Now... Do you want to perform the opening act of the finals?"
"Huh?" I was caught off guard. I didn't expect Honoka-san to ask me anything, let alone to perform at all. It was too quick, I didn't know that I would be acknowledged so easily. I easily nodded on the spur of moment yet again and she celebrates with a smile. "Let's go to your hotel room! We've got a lot to do!" She grabbed my hand as we made our way to my hotel.
"We're here!" Honoka's enthusiastic entrance got everyone staring. Miki and Yuki ran towards me as they pulled me to an embrace "I'm glad you're alright" Miki said "Yeah." I said.
The U's trio smiled at us seeing the beauty of our friendship just like what they hold together. Honoka, Umi and Kotori pull each other to an embrace just like the K-I trio with smiles on their faces.
"They made a joke about them being like us" Kotori said
"It sounded hard to believe but I understand now why they are really similar to us" Umi added
"They'll probably have the same number of members just like us and their leader is Saki-chan" Honoka smiled
Moments later
"I see, so want us to perform this song at the finals as the opening act" Yuki said
"Yes, I know you guys can do well with this song." Umi said
"I can make your clothes for you guys" Kotori suggested
"You will? Thank you!" Miki's eyes shimmer with happiness knowing that she'll get to wear beautiful clothes that Kotori will make is quite the dream.
"I have one favor to ask you guys" I said as everyone directed their attention towards me "Can you please perform alongside with us?" I asked the U's for their consent. Honoka, Umi and Kotori glance at each other then they return to face me with a smile "Of course we will!"
We all had smiles on our faces and I personally wished that this happiness would never end.
Ever since then, we got our training from the U's trio. Learning our dance steps, doing very excruciating exercises (Eli's training method). With the finals right around the corner, we as the opening act, must be there the earliest and be prepared to perform first so that we give the fans a good time and expect more good things in the finals. That is our role as K-I, we are no longer competitors but we are suppose to give everyone a great time. I learned that when I met Honoka-chan on that stage. I'll be standing on that stage on more time.
"Wow!" We were dazzled at the clothes that Kotori-chan made for us. It looked just like the one they used in their finals performance for Kira-Kira Sensation. "Thank you Kotori-chan!" I shook Kotori's hands and she returns it with a warm gentle smile "You're welcome"
"So, let's resume with practice. The day after tomorrow is the finals after all." Umi said as everyone followed her lead to the hotel rooftop.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8." Umi's clapping in sync with her counting while the others were practicing the dance for the finals opening.
"Ah, done." Miki sighed and went to drink some water. Yuki wipes away her sweat and I take in deep breathes.
"By the way, where are the other U's members?" I suddenly asked "Oh, they are training the other idol group that was assigned to us." Honoka answered my question
"Shouldn't you be with them then?" Another question is posed onto Honoka "Well, I personally wanted to meet you three. Because, I want your feelings to reach to them, your fans." Those words were enough to make me blush. She really does acknowledge me and my group!
"You'll meet the others during the finals after all!" Honoka's smile was so invigorating that it got me to smile too. "Yes!"
"Bye! See you guys! Make sure you get a lot of rest tomorrow!" Honoka waved to us alongside Umi and Kotori. "You too! We'll be performing together after all!" I said waving at them alongside Miki and Yuki. "Yes!" Honoka replied before leaving us.
"Let's all go shopping!" Yuki fist pumped then Miki went to pinch Yuki's cheek "Hold your horses, we'll do that tomorrow."
"Ehhhh... You're such a joy killer Miki" Yuki complained which irritated Miki some more as she puts more force into pinching her "Ow! ow! ow! OW! OW! OW!" I just watched the 'Umi-chan' and 'Honoka-chan' getting into another nagging argument.
I went to our hotel room ahead of them as they continue the nagging quest. I take my time having a hot bath so that I can relax. I heard the two arrive in our room but the argument continues on. I reached for my phone and earphones nearby and listen to the song I'm going to perform alongside my friends and the U's the day after tomorrow.
Next day. Throughout the entire day we enjoyed ourselves to the fullest since this will be more or less the last day we'll be staying here. After this, we'll be returning to Fukuoka not just as school idols. But as winners at heart. Being able to entertain, being able to reach out to people through music and giving everyone a chance to live happily. I now realize that is what we should be doing. Our performance tomorrow will change everything. Not just in us but also the people we perform for. It's definitely a wonderful life.
LLAFC Finals
Oh my... Is it just me or did my nervousness increase tenfold? Shaking in place is definitely going to get noticed by the others. I felt two hands touch my shoulders and I saw my best friends "Don't tell me you're nervous?" Miki asked "If you can handle saving me from embarrassment back then, this should be a piece of cake!" Yuki comforts me, somewhat. "Thanks guys." Our gaze turns to the U's trio
"This is it guys. Let's give it our all!" Honoka started the circle with the her fingers in a V shape. Umi and Kotori joined in as they looked at us. "Join us! You're part of us now!" Honoka stated. Smiles crossed our faces and we joined the circle.
"One!" Honoka started the number count
"Two!" Kotori followed
"Three!" Umi said
"Four!" I started as leader of the K-I
"Five!" Yuki followed behind me
"Six!" Miki ended the number count
"All right, let's go!" Honoka and I said at the same time. Gaining a light laugh from our particular members as a response. Honoka and I looked at each other and smiled
"Guess we are similar" We both said again further indicating that we could soul-mates.
"Good luck to you guys" We heard different voices and we couldn't hold our excitement. We saw the other U's members: Nico-san, Eli-san, Nozomi-san, Hanayo-san, Rin-san and Maki-san. "I think our hearts will burst out of our chests any moment now." Little did we know (K-I trio) that we were thinking the same thing.
"Thank you for your support!" I bowed before the other U's members
"Thank you for your support!" Yuki and Miki followed.
The non-performing U's members smiled at us, Hanayo-san and Rin-san went behind me, Nico-san and Maki-san went behind Yuki, and Eli-san and Nozomi-san went behind Miki as they gave each of us a small push. We turned to them and felt the encouragement in our bodies as we faced the curtain."Now, performing on stage for the opening act is the K-I and U's" The announcer stated as everyone began to cheer.
"It's time to give everyone a great time!" I did my sign language as my friends noticed it "Classic Saki" Miki and Yuki thought as the song began to start.
Play the song "Susume-Tomorrow" here either in your head or through the net ( watch?v=9d9jOdTM7nA)
As for the dance: Saki is copying Honoka
Yuki is copying Kotori
Miki is copying Umi
K-I is mirroring U's in the performance

English Lyrics:
I feel we have a chance
Yes. Let's push forward!
I don't want to regret it later, our future lies right ahead
Let's go! Do! I do! I live!
Yes,Do! I do! I live!
Let's go,Let's go! Hi!
Look ahead, look up, don't wait for anything
Let's go now, let's go quickly, we can go anywhere
The sun's shining and beckoning the future
Now, come. You come too. Forge ahead to tomorrow
My passionate heart (Was overflowing with emotions)
I embraced it and ran (it was painful)
Everyone, come with me (I want to move my body more)
And make sure I know what I'm capable of
Let's go! It's still the same world
Do! I do! I live! (yes, yes, yes!)
Let's go, as long as there's a chance
I won't give up (yes, yes, yes!)
Let's go! With a natural smile
Do! I do! I live! (yes, yes, yes!)
Let's go! I'm starting to see potential
We can shine when we're cheerful, there's a place for us
Let's go! Do! I do! I live!
Yes,Do! I do! I live!
Let's go,Let's go!
Look to the sky, Look together, If we catch a miracle
Let's fly right away, Let's fly to our dreams, I wonder if it'll be fine if we sing
Pure feelings of excitement, Point to the future
Come, let's fly, You fly too. Forge ahead to tomorrow
Strong feelings (Because they were born)
I've made up my mind and I'll do it (I was so happy)
Right here with everyone (More and more)
I want to get moving more and get started on my wishes (From here on out!)
Let's dance, The fun doesn't end
Do! I do! I sing! (Yes, yes, yes!)
Let's dance, With infinite energy
Create sparkles (Yes, yes, yes!)
Let's dance, Smile naturally
Do! I do! I sing! (Yes, yes, yes!)
Let's dance, Infinitely powerful
We can share that vibrancy, There is a place for us
Rising feelings (Oh yes!) Rising wishes (Oh yes!)
We're starting here I'm sure
Rising prayers (Oh yes!) They're rising you know (Oh yes!)
Something's… starting!
I want to move more and affirm my strength
Go go!→Tomorrow
Let's go, The world isn't unchanging
Do! I do! I live!
Let's go, As long as there's a possibility
Don't give up just yet
Let's go, If it's a natural smile
Do! I do! I live! (Yes, yes, yes!)
Let's go, The possibilities have come into view
We can shine vibrantly, There is a place for us
Let's go! Do! I do! I live!
Yes,Do! I do! I live!
Let's go,Let's go! Hi!
The crowed applauded for us. The whistling, the screams and the claps. It felt so surreal just like before. But this felt a little different. I didn't feel the pressure anymore, I felt that I was doing this on my own pace. So this is what it feels like, being able to give everyone a good time. I also had fun as well. With this experience, I know that Yuki, Miki and I will be able to reach to the top in Fukuoka once we return. Eventually, we'll enter the Love Live as our own idol group.
I see a bright future ahead of us.
I thank the U's for giving us this chance.
