Do you remember Na'el plays the piano? And she gets some suggestions from the kids, and the kids suggest her some Xenosongs.
But...?
"Na'el~!" A group of childish voice called Na'el from far away, as the catgirl trained with her brother Matthew and her grandfather Ghondor.
"Oh! Na'el! Looks like you have company!" Matthew, always the enthusiast, said as he detected a group of kids from far away.
"Is it time already?" Na'el said, looking a bit surprised.
"Looks like it. And…Voila, the symbols of peace!" Matthew replied, as the group of kids got even closer.
"I knew it you were here!" One of the kids exclaimed.
"You're training with gramps again, aren't you?" Another kid exclaimed.
"You said you'll play the piano for us today!" Another kid joined in.
"Ahh, sorry, sorry. I'll be there just in a minute. Would you wait until big sis gets her training done?" Na'el said, as she squatted down to face the small kids.
"Not just a minute! Now!" The kids said in unison.
"Really…? Okay, okay, got it. Uh…Matthew…? Ghondor…?" Na'el turned to her brother and her grandfather, who were looking confidently at her.
"Well, guess we can call it a day for today's training." Ghondor said with a smile.
"Maybe I could have a listen too!" Matthew gave Na'el a smile full of beans.
"Thanks, guys." Na'el said, and she got up to lead the kids to her piano.
"Now, what song do you want?" Na'el asked, as she walked with the kids.
"Gaur Plains!" A kid said.
'Gaur Plains, yeah, a classic. A song that must be listened to every generation. Although it's not my most favorite song in the world… The kids have taste!' Na'el thought.
"The Tomorrow with You!" Another kid said.
'The Tomorrow with You… Man, I could get emotional while playing it… Well, could be better than playing Walking with You….' Na'el thought.
"Bringer of Chaos: Ultimate!" Another kid joined in.
'Bringer of Chaos: Ultimate…? How am I supposed to play that with a piano…? Good choice, though.' Na'el chuckled.
"Any more suggestions? Just the three of them?" Na'el asked, as she expected the kids to answer "Yeaah!" to her question.
But no.
The kids were up to…
Something more.
"z5m20i12r04a28!" A random kids shouted out.
'Ah, yes. z5m20i12r04a28…. Wait… WHAT?!'
"Oh, you're suggesting that? Then my turn! N周L辺A!"
'The….fuck?!' Na'el, who usually didn't even thought of swearing in front of kids, swore inside her head.
"46-:ri9!"
"raTEoREkiSImeAra!"
"fiKAleldJOU!"
"Uncontrollable!"
'Finally something that sounds normal. But anyway…'
"HOW THE F…. No, how do you even pronounce those names?! And, how do you even know it?!" Na'el shouted, as she heard the barrage of suggestions.
"So you can't play it…?" The kids looked disappointed.
Now, Na'el was in big trouble. She always was a trusty big sister, and a professional piano player who can play anything. She had pride in her. She couldn't lose this piano pride to this bunch of kids, but….
Their suggestions really did wear her off.
"O…of course I can! Heck, give me more! Big sis Na'el will show you what she's got!" Na'el exclaimed, as she was declaring war.
And…
The kids accepted war.
"Wir fliegen!"
"NEMOUSU秘OUS!"
"z29ba2t0t1l301e17!"
"z23s20a12m0a9-1r4u!"
And that's when Na'el sensed….
She fucked up.
But the spectators never knew.
"Looks like the kids are having a good time with Na'el! She's always so sweet around them." Matthew chuckled, as he watched the scene from afar.
"Of course, of course. I feel pride." Ghondor nodded.
As the spectators watched Na'el and enjoyed the scene, Na'el's frustration grew even more.
'Matthew… Always in fantasy land….' Na'el sighed.
(Omake)
"Uh…Na'el…?" A kid came to the frustrated catgirl.
"Yes…?" Na'el tried to keep her calm.
"Can I make my suggestion… Too…?" She asked shyly.
"Of course! Big sis is having her time of her life!" Na'el tried to stay upbeat.
"Then… How about… Kokoro~Spirit…?" The kid said.
And Na'el froze right at the place.
'How… The… Fuck… Does this kid know that….?!'
"Um… How about a different song…? The one everybody might know." Na'el tried to change the subject.
"Then I have one suggestion!" A boy jumped in.
"Small Two Pieces!" He exclaimed.
'And how does HE know that!?' Na'el just wanted to die.
"Come on, Fei, no one knows that!" The girl said.
"No way, Shion, that one is the best!" The boy said.
"Okay, guys, don't fight… I'll just…figure out how to play those songs…" Na'el sighed.
"Yay!" The two peculiar kids cheered.
