Honoka woke up and got ready to go downtown. She wanted to go to some places to see if she could remember anything from her past. But most of the places that she visited were not familiar to her at all. She couldn't remember anything at all. Honoka was starting to think that it was impossible for her to get her memory back. She made it to a park and sat down on a bench. She hated having no memories. She could tell that her other friends were hurting because she couldn't remember anything about them. Every single memory that she had spent with her friends were gone.

"Well, it must be fate for us to meet you here of all places" A voice said

Honoka turned to see who the source of the voice was. It was girl who looked a little older than her and she was being followed by two other girls around her age. The girl in the middle had sandy blonde hair that ended past her ears. The girl on the right had red hair that ended at her back while the girl on her left had purple hair that also ended at her back. Honoka remembered them from watching the video of them singing a song on a video a couple of days ago. Honoka remembered them being called A-Rise.

"You're A-Rise right?" Honoka asked

"That's right, my name is Tsubasa Kira" Tsubasa said

The girl with red hair introduced herself next.

"My name Anju Yuki" Anju said

The girl with purple hair was the last one to introduce herself.

"My name is Erena Toudou" Erena said

Tsubasa asked Honoka how she was feeling after her accident.

"We saw you live performance and were shocked when you suddenly collapsed. You probably overworked yourself. You need to learn to take it easy. You're no good as a school idol if you collapse in the middle of your performance. We saw that you tried to do another show but it looked like you tried to get back on stage when you haven't completely recovered. Please wait until you're better. Try not to push yourself too hard next time" Tsubasa said

"Tsubasa is right. We may have won but we had a feeling that if you were able to finish your performance then you would have won" Erena said

"You nine girls are amazing. To rival us is something you should proud of" Anju said

"Idol talk aside, how are feeling?" Tsubasa asked

Honoka started to fidget and told them what was going on.

"I got amnesia from that fall I took. Now I can't remember anything" Honoka said

A-Rise was shocked to hear that Honoka had amnesia. An idol losing her memories is the worst thing that could happen to them.

"I'm sorry to hear that" Tsubasa said

"It's okay. The others have been trying to help me get my memories back" Honoka said

"Have you remembered anything yet?" Anju asked

"No, I don't remember anything at all. I'm starting to think that's impossible for me to get my memories back" Honoka said

"Don't give up yet. If you just give it some time and your memories will come back on their own" Erena said

"You really think so?" Honoka asked

The three idols nodded and after a brief conversation the three girls left and Honoka was alone again. Honoka was luck that she was able to A-Rise. Honoka decided to go back home and think about what she should do next. She needed to figure out if there was anything else that might bring her memories back. Honoka was about half way to her house when she was confronted by Kotori and Umi. Umi was not very happy and Kotori just looked relieved.

"Where were you?!" Umi said

Honoka could tell that Umi was really pissed off. Honoka was starting to feel scared because Umi was looking really scary right now.

"I was downtown trying to see if there were any other places that might help me get my memories back" Honoka said in a scared tone

"You should've gotten one of us before you went off on your own like that" Umi said

"Umi, calm down" Kotori said

"No I will not calm down! She has amnesia and that makes her very naïve. What if she got tricked by someone?" Umi asked

"The important thing is that she's okay. So let bygones be bygones" Kotori said

Kotori was trying her best to calm Umi down but nothing seemed to be working. Umi ran up to Honoka and grabbed her by the shoulders. Umi's grip was really tight and it was hurting Honoka. Honoka winced at the tight grip that Umi had on her. Umi started to shake her and Honoka was starting to feel dizzy.

"Do you realize how worried we were when your parents told us that you went off by yourself? Going downtown on your own is what we've been told and you went to various locations out on your own" Umi said

"I'm sorry! I didn't know you would be coming over" Honoka apologized

Umi started to shake Honoka even harder and Honoka tried to pry herself away from Umi but her grip on her was too strong. Umi's grip on her tightened even more. Honoka felt that her shoulders were going to come off any minute. Kotori noticed that Umi was going too far and stepped in to pry her off of Honoka herself.

"Umi stop! You're hurting her!" Kotori said

Kotori managed to get Umi to stop her assault on Honoka. Honoka was able to regain herself and looked at Umi in fear. Umi saw the fearful look in her eyes and realized that she went too far. Umi went forwards and tried to apologize to her.

"Honoka, I'm sorry I didn't mean to–"Umi started

Umi reached out her hand towards Honoka but Honoka scurried away from Umi and went over to Kotori and hid behind her. Umi looked hurt when her childhood friend ran away from her. Umi saw that Honoka was afraid of her. Umi felt guilty but it was too late for regrets the damage had been done.

"I think you should leave Honoka alone for a while Umi" Kotori said

Umi was about to say something but Kotori cut her off.

"I think it would be better if she stay with me until she's no longer afraid of you" Kotori said

Umi took a look at Honoka and saw that she was actually crying tears of fear. Kotori led Honoka to her house and left Umi all by herself. Umi's knees gave out and she fell to her knees.

"I'm sorry I was just so worried about you" Umi said

Umi was crying. The tears fell from her face and hit the concrete. Umi's actions may have caused her to lose the trust of her childhood friend, her best friend.
