So guys… here's the new chapter… this took me longer because I just graduated so yay! I know this is not the proper chapter to say that because of what happened, but I think that you guys should at least get a reprieve for breaking your hearts over my stories, so anywho to the story!

I do not own Love Live.

Before the Storm's Eye

"I wonder what will happen to Muse now."

"I don't know."

"Wait… look isn't that your-"

"Move aside!" Honoka screamed as she bumped into two figures, one having blonde hair and the other with auburn hair.

"O-Onee chan?!" The auburn haired girl remarked and the blonde with, "Honoka-san?!"

"Ah… Yukiho, Arisa?" The gingerhaired remarked to the brunette and blonde respectively, "Why are you two here?" Despite trying to contain her voice in a calm manner, the two could notice the tears in her eyes.

"Onee-chan? Why are you crying?" Yukiho asked.

"I-it's nothing."

"It's not just nothing!"

"Just let me pass!" The ginger screamed as she pushed her way through them.

"Wha?"

"Is it that bad already?"

"Yukiho, Arisa!" Maki announced as she approached the two. Her labored breaths made it clear to the two that she was gasping for air which does not help the fact that tears could be seen in her face.

"Maki-san?!"

"Why?"

"D-doesn't matter," the redhead forced her words out, "h-have… you… seen… Hono-" she couldn't finish it as she collapsed on the floor.

"Maki-san?!" Both girls panicked as they wondered what to do.

"W-what do we do?!" Yukiho asked in fright.

"Onee-chan!" Arisa figured out and immediately held Maki's hands and legs as they lifted her back to the clubroom, where everyone else who remained stood in shock.

"Yukiho and Arisa?!" Nozomi gasped.

"No," Eli pointed out, "The one they're carrying…"

"Maki-chan!" Hanayo, Rin and Nico immediately rushed the redhead to the table as they checked her pulse and despite not being experienced as the heir herself, managed to at least get a light read.

"She'll be fine…" Hanayo declared, much to the relief of the rest, but what bothered Eli most was how Maki passed out, so she looked at both Honoka's and her respective younger sisters.

"What happened?"

"She was looking for Honoka-san when she just passed out." Arisa explained.

"Come to think of it," Yukiho placed her hand on her chin as she tried to piece the evidence, "Nee-chan was crying, like Maki-san, do you know what happened?"

"W-well… you might want to sit down," Eli motioned the two to sit down before telling them of the events that transpired. Both girls just gulped in horror of what was happening. Maki awoke during this explanation, and like Nozomi noticed on how the two were taking note of the situation miraculously enough.

"B-but… Umi-san wouldn't do something like that!" Arisa shouted before Yukiho placed a hand on her shoulders.

"No… come to think of it, it makes perfect sense."

"Explain yourself Yukiho-chan," Nozomi demanded, which the brunette clarified.

"I remember, before high school, I remember Onee-chan coming home telling me about how Umi-san stuck close to only Kotori-san, and rarely left together with nee-chan…"

"So… it's true then…" Nico said the words that everyone couldn't say out. As much as she doesn't want to admit it, she like everyone, thought the second year trio was untouchable, the bond unbreakable, yet here they are witnessing how fragile the relationship actually was.

"W-what will we do?" Hanayo meekly asked.

"What else, we have to fix this…"

"But, how nya~?"

"Right…" Eli realized before she like them had no idea what to do here, considering that they don't know any possible outs of this problem. Cursing herself for not thinking of this possibility she merely clapped her hands.

"All right everyone, there is nothing we can do today, we have to go home now."

"Aww…" Despite all of them wanting to do something, they know that they can't so resigning to this dilemma they all went home. But where is the second year trio?
