A/N: And I'm back with a new chapter of the All Worlds Alliance Stories! I'm glad that everyone enjoyed the previous chapter and I'm glad that everyone likes the appearance of the girls from BanG Dream!.
Number01BlazblueFan - Been a fan of Super Sentai/Power Rangers since I was a toddler and I pretty much love every iteration of it. There will be a future Symphogear storyline, both Rintarou & Kurisu are already part of the AWA and Arfoire & Kurome will become members of the Apostles.
Synchro - the characters you mentioned, with the exception of Anastasia and Blue Marvel, are already part of the AWA.
Super2019DP - Sorry but I don't get what you're trying to say there.
And with that done, let's get this chapter started!
-Normal Earth-
Tokyo, Japan
Over the course of the week, the Rainbooms, Flash Drive, After School Tea Time and Chizuru Tachibana's band has been rehearsing for the upcoming event in CiRCLE this weekend. Of course, the Rainbooms already met the members of Roselia, Pastel✽Palettes, Hello, Happy World! and the remaining members of Poppin'Party and eighteen girls from the four bands gotten along well with the Rainbooms.
It's a nice Saturday night in CiRCLE as we see a lot of people entering the studio to watch the night's event. A lot of spectators are already inside the stage area while a few people remains outside while waiting for their friends to arrive.
In the lobby, we see Kenji Kazama, Ami Mizuno, Sayaka Miki, Shinozaki and Kaoruko Moeta are gathered at one corner.
Kenji was checking the event's poster schedule, "From the looks of it... the Rainbooms will be going first, followed by After School Tea Time, Afterglow, Pastel✽Palettes, Hello, Happy World!, Roselia, Poppin'Party, Flash Drive and lastly, Chizuru's band." he listed off.
"Chizuru's band? I though they had a name?'' Ami pointed out in confusion.
"Yeah, they do." Kenji confirmed, "But the name of their is something I say more times than one, so I won't bother mentioning it.'' he stated with a blank look.
Sayaka let's out a grin, "Well... it's your fault for saying that so many times that it gave him the idea." she mused.
"It's not my fault that he's such a miserable pile of secrets!" Kenji grumbled in argument.
Shinozaki then spoke, "By the way... I would like to address the elephant in this room.'' he said before turning to Kaoruko, "I'm surprised that you decided to come along with us, Miss Kaos.'' he pointed out, "Usually... you would decline our offer since you can't take overcrowded places.'' he stated.
Kaos blushed before turning away a bit, "Ah... ababa... I-I can't really deny that...'' she admitted, "I came along since Tsubasa-san told me that I may find inspiration for my manga here...'' she stated, "And... I wanna get over my shyness... even if it's slow...'' she confessed.
Kenji then pats her head which made her blush, "That's good... I really admire people that tries to overcome their flaws.'' he stated with a smile.
Kaoruko blushed even harder, "H-Hai..." she muttered in gratitude while Ami, Sayaka and Shinozaki looks at them with a smile.
Meanwhile outside of the studio, we see Eddy Skipper McGee, Jake Long and Kenny Rogers gathered around the front alongside several girls whom the boys are not acquainted with.
Eddy is looking around with a raised eyebrow while Jake and Kenny were having a conversation, "I think you broke the dowels." Jake spoke, "You're not gonna have time to glue it back on. You'll have to nail it." he advised.
"With what?" Kenny asked.
Jake thought about it, "Does she have any pillows or wine glasses?" he asked.
Kenny nodded, "She does." he confirmed.
"Great. Neither of those. Try a hammer!" Jake suggested.
Kenny facefaulted, "Did that feel good?" he asked, "You feel like a big man now?" he pointed out indecorously.
Eddy then turns to them, "Would you guys cut it out?!" he demanded in mild annoyance.
The two boys turns to him, "What's wrong, Eddy?" Jake asked.
"You guys have been whispering ''three letters back'' over and over again, and it's driving me crazy!" Eddy exclaimed.
Jake and Kenny looks at each other before turning back to Eddy, "Dude... sorry if we're noisy but Kenny and I weren't whispering at all." Jake stated.
"Yeah... and never once we spoke 'three letters back'." Kenny added.
Eddy scratches the top of his head, "Huh? Guess... I must be hearing things...'' he said in confusion as Jake and Kenny looks at each other with bewildered looks.
Meanwhile at the backstage of the studio, we see the Rainbooms, Afterglow and Poppin'Party members gathered inside. The Rainbooms are currently wearing the attires they wore during their amp vs amp battle with the Dazzlings with Twilight Sparkle wearing Princess Twilight Sparkle's attire while Sunset Shimmer is wearing her usual attire.
Ran Mitake is currently wearing a turtleneck light gray sweater, a black leather jacket, short ripped shorts, a black belt around her waist over a pair of black tights and black rubber shoes.
Moca Aoba is currently wearing a turquoise parka, black short shorts, and a plain white shirt. Her boots are teal and black and she wears a choker.
Himari Uehara is currently wearing a black low-cut top under a white dress with plunging neckline, shoulders cut out, and a grey line pattern. She pairs this with black stockings, white and black shoes, a black bracelet on each wrist, and a dark grey hat. She wears the same choker as her bandmates.
Tomoe Udagawa is currently wearing a plain white top with a dark green fur lined vest, black denim pants with chains and belt accents, dark green and black boots, and a black studded wrist ornament. She wears the black choker worn by her bandmates.
Tsugumi Hazawa is currently wearing a gold tank-top worn with a black leather vest, along with a black skirt beneath a sheer layer and a pair of gold and black boots. She wears the choker the rest of her bandmates wear.
There are two more girls inside the room.
The first girl has a short black hair is chin-length with sections of hair pulled back in a loop on the side of her head, while her bangs are straight-cut and has red eyes. This is Rimi Ushigome.
The second girl is pretty tall with a gentle green eyes and straight, waist-length, dark brown hair. She has choppy bangs with a section of hair that reaches her navel and covers her right ear. This is Tae Hanazono.
Kasumi, Arisa, Saaya, Rimi and Tae are currently wearing a similar outfit reminiscent of stylized uniforms featuring the girls theme color in both solid and plaid fabrics. This outfit is composed of a white top, two members having sleeves with a plaid cuff, and three without; instead having plaid lace straps worn under shoulder. At the neck is a plaid tie or bow-tie, and black suspender straps adorned with gold lined stars and bows. The straps connect to a brown belt with a star buckle, worn over fabric wrapped around the waist and a small, gold star chain. Kasumi and Saaya wear black shorts with a piece of plaid fabric hanging on the left hip, with Tae matching them but wearing dark blue shorts or miniskirt. Rimi and Arisa wear plaid skirts with a frilly petticoat. Each girl wears matching shoes of their theme color in a darker or lighter shade and accent by gold detailing, along with glittering black stockings or tube socks that have a gold star cut around the top. On their wrists are multiple black accessories, and each girl wears matching hair accessories or star earrings.
Sunset was checking on her phone before turning to everyone, '"I know that the girls from Roselia, Pastel✽Palettes and Hello, Happy World! will be here soon...'' she pointed out, "... but does anyone had an idea where the others are?'' she asked.
Fluttershy then spoke, "Since, they're going last, Chizuru and his bandmates decided to help Miss Marina at the moment while Flash and his band will be here soon.'' she replied.
"And as for the After School Tea Time..." Applejack spoke, "Ritsu and Mio are currently having trouble looking for Yui when she suddenly drifted away.'' she stated with a blank look.
Rimi then spoke, "Oh... I hope they find her in time.'' she said in concern.
"Just what the heck is going on with that girl?!" Arisa exclaimed, "When I first met that girl, she's like a combination of Tae and Kasumi but now, she's completely a different person!" she pointed out in disbelief.
"It's because she's imitating a guy name Elias." Rainbow Dash replied with a look of disbelief, "And for what reason, I have no idea.'' she admitted.
Ran then turns to Sunset and Rarity Belle, "Anyway...'' she spoke, "... I think you girls should get ready, you could be called on stage at any moment now.'' she advised.
Sunset nodded, "Will do." she replied.
"By the way, Sunset, I must apologize that I couldn't provide you any outfits for our performance.'' Rarity said apologetically.
Sunset shook her head, "No need to apologize, Rarity." she reassured, "You can at least provide me with something to wear for our future gigs." she pointed out.
"I suppose your right." Rarity replied in agreement.
Arisa crosses her arms, "I still can't believe that Chizuru's band is going last." she pointed out, "I was expecting Roselia to be the one closing this event." she stated.
Saaya chuckled, "I guess they got lucky this time around." she mused.
Pinkie Pie then appears between them, "Oh! Chiz is more than lucky! He is pretty much blessed with luck this week!" she exclaimed, "I mean... he got all the 'good-luck' messages in every fortune cookies that I made!" she stated.
"That's just plain crazy." Arisa replied indecorously.
Ran then spoke, "Lucky or not, they've got an important job as the final act." she pointed out.
"That's true." Tomoe replied in agreement.
Then the doors open and came in Nagisa Shirai, "Rainbooms! Your on!" he announced while jabbing a thumb behind him.
Rainbow slings her guitar around her, "Welp! This is it! Wish us luck." she said.
"Give them a sparkling performance girls!" Kasumi cheered.
"Thanks, Miss Kasumi." Twilight replied in gratitude.
And with that, the Rainbooms left the room when Pinkie zips back and placed a basket of cupcakes & muffins on one table, "Please keep an eye of this while we're performing and make sure Chiz don't touch it!" she advised, "I plan on sharing it with everyone after the show! Thanks!" she said before leaving again.
Arisa stares at the basket in shock, "I don't remember her leaving this room with a basket of cupcakes in hand.'' she pointed out in disbelief.
At the stage, the Rainbooms introduces themselves to the crowd which earned them a small yet welcoming applause, the girls then began to play the song Shine Like Rainbow which immediately got the crowd cheering for them.
Once upon a time
You came into my world and made the stars align
Now I can see the signs
You pick me up when I get down so I can shine
Shine like rainbows
Shine like rainbows
Shine like rainbows
Shine like rainbows
Friends, you are in my life
And you can count on me to be there by your side
And when the music comes alive
We sing our songs to lift us up so we can shine
And the sound that we hear in our hearts makes a crescendo
And the light that ignites in the dark it makes us all glow
And shine like rainbows
We shine like rainbows
Shine like rainbows
We shine like rainbows
Together we stand
As the rain begins to fall
And holdin' our heads up high
As the sun shines through it all
And the sound that we hear in our hearts makes a crescendo
And the light that ignites in the dark it makes us all glow
And shine like rainbows
We shine like rainbows
Shine like rainbows
We shine like rainbows
We shine like rainbows
Back in the dressing room, the girls from Poppin'Party and Afterglow watches the Rainbooms perform on a flatscreen television and they can't help but feel awed by their music.
"Not bad." Tomoe spoke, "The girls sure know how to open up an event." she commented with a smile.
Tae nodded, "Hai... they doesn't seem to be bothered performing here for the first time." she pointed out.
Nagisa then came back in the room, "Excuse me, Afterglow?!" he called out getting the band's attention, "Since Yui is still nowhere to be found at the moment, you girls are expected to perform next.'' he announced before leaving the room.
"Eh?! Yui is still missing?!" Himari exclaimed in shock.
Arisa leans back on her seat, "Aaah! That girl is really nothing but trouble!" she squawked in annoyance.
"You think Yui lost interest for this event?" Tsugumi asked in concern.
Saaya shook her head, "I don't think Yui is that kind of person." she replied.
Before anyone could speak, the doors open and in came, Mio Akiyama, Asuza Nakano, Ritsu Tainaka and Tsumugi Kotobuki - the girls are currently wearing their performance outfits which is their attires from the No, Thank You! music video.
"Girls! You made it!" Kasumi cheered.
"But where's Yui?'' Himari asked.
Ritsu brought out her phone, "Yui texted me a minute ago, she said she'll be there once the four of us are on stage.'' she explained.
"How is that gonna work?" Arisa demanded indecorously.
Ritsu shrugged her shoulders, "I dunno... she probably wanted to do some grand entrance or something.'' she said.
"Is it all right just to let Yui come on stage late?" Ran asked.
Asuza sighed, "I know it's troublesome but Yui-senpai has arrive on stage late several times before yet our performances always came out fine, so I guess we'll just have to trust her whatever she had in mind right now." she stated.
Nagisa then came back in the room, "Excuse me, everyone?!" he called out when he took notice of 4/5 members of After School Tea Time, "Yui still not here? Guess we'll settle with Afterglow going first.'' he stated.
"No, no, no... we'll go next." Mio spoke, "Yui said that she'll be on stage with us.'' she reasoned.
Nagisa raised an eyebrow, "Whatever.'' he replied with a blank look.
Back on stage, the Rainbooms finished their song as the crowd gave them a worthy applause, much to their joy and delight.
"Thank you very much!" Rainbow said, "Again... we're the Rainbooms! Rock on, folks!" she cheered.
As the girls ran backstage, they ran across the 4/5 members of After School Tea Time, "Great job, girls!" Tsumugi complimented while running past them.
"Thanks for warming up the stage!" Ritsu added with a grin.
Rarity turns back at them, "Good-luck, girls!" she called out.
Sunset then spoke, "Is it me or they're still missing one person?" she pointed out.
On stage, 4/5 members of After School Tea Time got onto their instruments as Ritsu got onto the microphone.
"Hello, everyone, this After School Tea Time and we're ready to rock!" Ritsu cheered, "So...'' she spoke, "... YUI GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE, SO WE CAN GET FUCKING STARTED!" she yelled in demanded.
Suddenly, everyone heard a loud strum of guitar, everyone's head turns to the audience's entrance door and saw Yui Hirasawa standing there with her guitar in hand. Yui is wearing a black shirt with a black & white scarf drapped down on her shoulders, black tattered jeans and brown shoes. She has tattered scarves wrapped around her wrists and a sunglasses dangling on her shirt.
Yui then began to strum her guitar, "The whole journey of being a musician is also a journey of finding yourself and who you are. If it feels natural to you, it's natural to me because I'm just being myself every time I'm out here." she sang through the headset that she is wearing, "I love music. I love creating, so I just get inspired with whatever mood I'm in. Whatever the story dictates, that's where my mind goes." she sang in a slow, blues-like tune as she made her way to the stage and for some reason, the crowd is loving it, "It's tough to say what separates me from everyone else. I guess it's one of the things that the audience feels as soon as the spotlight hits me. All I can say is that I'm being as true to myself the best way I can." she finished as she got on stage. Yui then looks around, "My name is Yui Hirasawa.'' she introduced herself, "Everybody get ready to applause, hold your phones up, raise your glow sticks high because it's time... to walk.. with the After School Tea Time!" she announced.
And with that, the band began to play their song Fuwa Fuwa Time!, much to the crowd's delight.
KIMI wo miteru to itsumo HAATO DOKIDOKI

Back in the dressing room, the girls watches the After School Tea Time perform in relief.
Applejack spoke, "Hoooeeey~ That's a relief." she said in relief, "Glad that Yui arrives in time.'' she mused while tipping her hat.
Arisa then spoke, "Just what the heck is that all about?!" she exclaimed, "Is it really necessary for Yui to do that?!" she demanded in disbelief.
"Well... the crowd seems to love it, so I guess no harm done." Sunset replied.
As the After School Tea Time are performing on stage, we see Jean Kirstein and Marcus "The Kane" McGee hanging out by the studio's lobby when five girls enters the area.
The first girl has a fair skin, large pink eyes, and shoulder-length, pastel pink hair with wavy ends. Her bangs are straight cut with a small slant to the corner and a split off-center. Her forelocks are thin and curled. Usually, she wears her hair loose, but when performing or training, she ties it up in pigtails. This is Aya Maruyama.
The second girl has a sharp green eyes and light, wavy teal hair and bangs are brushed towards the right, and her hair is shoulder-length. Sections of her hair are worn on either side in a braid held by tiny yellow bows. This is Hina Hikawa.
The third girl has a long, platinum blonde hair nearly surpassing her chest with her thick, layered bangs split into three portions framing her face. Thin sections of hair is worn beneath her ears and on her shoulders, while her forelocks are pulled back. When performing her loose hair is normally pulled back and held by a white ribbon or other accessories. She has big, droopy violet eyes. This is Chisato Shirasagi.
The fourth girl has a fair skin and big, feminine turquoise eyes. Her medium length silver hair is worn in thick braided pigtails normally adorned with ribbons, a headband, or a hat. Her bangs are split off-center with a loose, pointed strand layered over them on either side of the head. This is Eve Wakamiya.
The fifth girl has a shoulder-length, pale brown hair with layered forelocks and a tuft of bangs covering her forehead. She wears half-rim glasses over her dark green eyes. This is Maya Yamato.
The girl's costumes are inspired by Magical Girls and Lolita style dresses with their pastel theme colors (pink, blue, green, purple, and yellow), with white and accenting of another color (blue, purple, yellow, or green). Originally they wore a dress with a corset top that had ribbon lacing or bows at the middle and two ribbons on each side of the chest, with the exception of Aya's dress, which has one large ribbon at the middle. The skirt is shaped to reveal shorter white fabric, and two layers of ruffles. Sewn to the back is a bow in their theme color with frilly white or pale colored tails. They also wear ribbons on their wrist and frilly cuffs beneath the shoulder, and a frilly choker. Their shoes have small heels and ankle straps wrapped around the foot and ankle, worn with white stockings that have a ribbon on the side of the cuff. Each girl wears two white ribbons in their hair.
These girls are the Pastel✽Palettes.
Aya let's out a sigh of relief, "Hu-wah! Glad that we made it in time." she said.
Chisato then spoke, "I can't believe our schedule got messed up! I thought we're never gonna make it here.'' she stated.
"Well... it's a good thing that we managed to finish our work in time." Maya pointed out, "All we need to do right now is to get ready before it's our turn to perform.'' she advised.
"It looks like the next band is already performing." Eve pointed out, "I can hear Yui's singing all the way here.'' she claimed. Her eyes then widens, "Is Yui screaming?" she asked in confusion.
Hina then listens, "I think she is." she replied, "You think the girls added heavy metal in their genre?'' she asked.
Chisato then spoke, "I heard that Hirasawa-san has been acting differently lately but do I believe that they're not the type to change their music.'' she stated, "Plus... Akiyama-san is not a fan with those kind of music." she pointed out.
"Good point." Maya replied in agreement.
As this is going on, Jean took notice of them, "Hey... aren't you girls called Pastel✽Palettes?'' he pointed out getting their attention, "You know... the band that had a pre-recorded music during your first performance?'' he added.
The girls could only look at him in horror, Aya then spoke, "S-Sorry... please pardon us!" she exclaimed before running off, followed by the others.
Jean can only watch them go in confusion, "What's up with them?'' he asked as Marcus just took a sip of his beer in a red cup.
Back with the girls, they continue to trek down the hallway towards their destination, which is the dressing room by the way.
"Mou... that was mean." Aya spoke, "I can't believe that guy had to ask that in front of us." she said with a sad look.
Eve then spoke, "Don't get disheartened, Aya-chan, what happened back then is long over." she pointed out.
"Besides... we're good in playing instruments now." Hina added with a smile.
Aya sighed, "I know... but still... I just don't like it when people bring that up.'' she reasoned.
Chisato spoke, "I understand how you feel but there's nothing we could about that, there are people that will always try and bring up old shames towards others for their own amusement.'' she stated, "But doesn't mean that we're gonna let them bring us down because of that.'' she declared.
Maya nodded, "She's right! Let's show that guy that we're a real band!" she exclaimed with a grin.
Aya smiled, "Okay." she said.
Meanwhile at another area of the studio, we see Chizuru Tachibana sitting on top of a stereo taking an ice-cold beer after helping Marina sort out some things. He is currently alone at the moment as Cesaro Oohori and Yuuki Asaba went out at the moment to get some grub. The blonde is currently wearing a black hooded jacket with a yellow-zigzags on each side over a red Slipknot t-shirt, blue jeans and white & black kicks.
Chizuru checks on his watch, "Only six more bands to go, then we're on." he mused.
"CHII-KUN!" a voiced cheered.
Suddenly, a girl caught Chizuru with a glomp, much to the blonde's shock. The girl has a large, rounded yellow eyes and long, straight, waist-length platinum blonde hair. Her fringe is cut unevenly and separated into two parts. She has thin forelocks which touch her shoulders. This is Kokoro Tsurumaki.
"T-Tsuramaki-dono!" Chizuru squawked as he find it awkward that another girl, not named Yoshika Miyafuji, is hugging him.
"No, no, it's Kokoro." Kokoro corrected with a big smile.
Then Hagumi Kitazawa with two more girls and a mascot walks towards them. The first girl is with angular facial features, slanted crimson eyes and long purple hair worn in a ponytail. She has chest length forelocks and bangs that frame her face with a single lock that hangs loose between her eyes. This is Kaoru Seta.
The second girl has a big violet eyes and long, pale blue hair worn loose with a section held in a side-tail with a teal ribbon. She has short bangs and forelocks with a slight curl on end. This is Kanon Matsubara.
The mascot is a fluffy pink bear costume with white facial detail and paws. It's eyes are big and shiny, and her mouth is fixed to be opened in a cat smile. It wears a matching uniform of her band mates, with the addition of fuzzy purple headphones with a black and gold center. This is Michelle but inside the mascot is a girl name Misaki Okusawa.
The girls are currently wearing a white top and skirt for three members, while Kaoru wore pants and Hagumi chose black pumpkin pants. A red vest with gold and black detail is worn over this with three chains attached at the middle. The black and gold collar accents the fringed shoulder-pads, wrist accessories, thigh-length boots, and marching hats.
These girls are Hello, Happy World!
"Oi! Oi! Let go, Tsurumaki-dono!" Chizuru requested, "People may get the wrong idea!" he pointed out.
"I told you to call me, Kokoro!" Kokoro insisted with a smile.
Kaoru did a pose, "Such a fleeting feelings..." she spoke rather dramatically.
"What are you doing here, Tachibana-san?" Michelle asked.
Chizuru shifted on his seat, "Just resting here for a minute after helping Marina-dono sort out some stuffs." he replied, "That... and I'm waiting for my boys to come back.'' he added.
"Fueee... that's very nice of you." Kanon said.
"Well... I got nothing to do at the moment, so I decided to kill time before we get on stage." Chizuru explained, "Speaking of which... shouldn't you girls getting ready for your performance?'' he pointed out, "After School Tea Time's performances will be done at any moment and once Afterglow and Pastel✽Palettes are done... it's gonna be your turn." he stated.
Kokoro then spoke, "Oh, it's going to be okay! We'll be on stage on time and we're gonna show everyone something fun!" she exclaimed in excitement, "Hello, Happy World! Making the world smile!" she cheered.
"You are so full of positivity." Chizuru pointed out, "You should hang out with the New Day sometimes." he suggested.
"Definitely not." Michelle spoke, "Or else... she'll be throwing pancakes to the audience." she pointed out.
"I'm surprised that you know the New Day." Chizuru mused.
Kaoru then spoke, "By the way... is my fleeting rival around?'' she asked with a pose.
"Rival?'' Hagumi asked with a smile.
"She's talking about Flash Sentry." Chizuru replied, "You know... the blue-haired pretty dude that went shirtless during their first performance." he pointed out.
Michelle spoke, "I think I get why Kaoru-san calls him a rival of hers." she claimed.
"We all known that Kaoru-san does get a lot of girls would cheer whenever she is around, so it's kinda surprising to see another person could do the same thing." Kanon stated.
Kaoru chuckled, "Fufufu... I worthy rival indeed." she mused while flicking her hair.
"Well... Flash generically is a good-looking dude and a nice guy to boot." Chizuru commented, "Too bad for the girls... Flash has already had his eyes to someone else.'' he pointed out.
"Kinda like me, though." Kokoro chimed in with a smile.
Chizuru was taken aback by Kokoro's comment. The blonde is fully aware that the other blonde has a crush on him and he already told her that he has a girlfriend, she has yet to understand that though.
Chizuru sighed, "Don't say that, Kokoro-dono, I'm sure that there is someone out there for you.'' he reassured.
Kokoro smiled brightly, "Don't worry, I haven't given up to begin with.'' she replied, much to the blonde's horror.
Meanwhile outside the studio, we see Flash Sentry, Brawley Beats, Ringo and Sandalwood hanging out at the parking lot by Flash's car. Flash and Sandalwood are having a conversation with red-colored cups of beer in hand while Brawley and Ringo are talking with the former doing some imaginary free throw.
"Sorry if I was late for rehearsals the other day." Sandalwood spoke, "I was on the phone with my mother." he reasoned.
"How is she?" Flash asked.
"Pretty good." Sandalwood replied, "She bought the book "Eat, Pray, Love", and used it to set my father's Mercedes on fire." he said with a blank look.
Then five girls approaches them. The first girl has a sharp, gold eyes and long silver hair worn loose with some type of hair decoration. Her long forelocks rest over her shoulders and her bangs just reach her eyes. This is Yukina Minato.
The second girl has a slanted green eyes and long, light, teal hair about navel length with her forelocks worn behind the ear with a curl on the end. Her bangs are neatly parted with the exception of a single loose lock. This is Sayo Hikawa, the older twin sister of Hina.
The third girl has a fair skin with curvy green eyes and long, wavy, soft brown hair with thin curled forelocks and long, thin bangs. She wears a part of hair up in a ponytail. She also wears a pair of pink earrings shaped like upside-down bunnies. This is Lisa Imai.
The fourth girl has a pale skin, and big, slanted violet eyes. She has long black hair styled loosely after a hime cut; heavy bangs across her forehead with straightened sidelocks that reach past her shoulders. This is Rinko Shirokane.
The fifth girl is a short, petite girl with big, sharp crimson eyes. She has long light purple hair worn in curled pigtails with matching forelocks and straightened bangs. This is Ako Udagawa, the younger sister of Tomoe.
The girls are currently wearing a purple and black gothic dress with the skirt in four ruffled layers, coming in purple, dark purple, black, and white. Their tops are in various styles, but each girl wears black frilly sleeves and a ribbon at her neck; each coming in a unique color: Yukina has violet, Sayo's is turquoise, Ako has neon pink, while Rinko has white, and Lisa has red. Each girl also wears the same gothic hat and has a lace ribbon sewn to the side of their skirt, but while Sayo, Yukina, and Lisa share the same diagonal cut skirt design, Ako's resembles a mini-skirt, and Rinko's skirt reaches all the way down to her ankles. They also wear rose hair clips on their heads with purple and black feathers hanging down, with a light teal rose beside a big black rose with black and white accents. Each girl also wears black knee-high boots with gray soles and light gold accents with dark gold lines on top.
These girls are the band called Roselia.
Sayo spoke, "What are you boys doing out here?'' she asked with a strict tone, "Aren't you suppose to be getting ready for your performance?" she pointed out.
Flash turns to them, "Hey, girls.'' he greeted, "We're just biding our time before it's our turn to perform but we've done our rehearsals several times, so we'll be okay once we're on stage.'' he explained with a smile.
Lisa giggled before turning to Brawley and Ringo, "I heard that After School Tea Time are on stage.'' she pointed, "Shouldn't you boys cheering for your on girlfriends?" she asked.
Sandalwood spoke, "Well... they love to but they cheer to loudly that it distracts the girls.'' he explained while earning a nod from the two boys.
"I see." Lisa said, "Still... can't believe that you guys will be performing second to last.'' she pointed out.
Yukina spoke, "It's kinda disappointing that we're not the last one to perform.'' she claimed.
Lisa chuckled, "It's not that bad, I mean... we still get to play our music.'' she pointed out.
Yukina scoffed, "I suppose you have a point." she replied.
"So, how everything is going?'' Sayo asked.
Flash spoke, "Ah yeah, the Rainbooms started the event with a bang!" he cheered, "They were on fire and so does the crowd!" he pointed out, "And the After School Tea Time is keeping the momentum up.'' he added.
Ako let's out a chuckle, "Kuh-kuh... the apostles have gathered, and the revelry shall...'' she tried to say but lost her words.
"... delight." Rinko chimed in.
"That's right! Delight!" Ako cheered.
Flash ruffles Ako's head, much to her delight, "I think you girls should head inside and meet up with the others." he suggested, "I know that your performing fourth to last but I know you girls want to be on stage on time." he stated.
Yukina nodded, "Indeed.'' she replied in agreement.
"Guess we'll see you boys, later." Lisa said.
"Good-luck." Rinko added.
"And lay off with the drinks." Sayo pointed out causing Flash and Sandalwood to hide their drinks behind their back, earning a giggle from Lisa, Ako and Rinko.
And with that, Roselia went inside the studio while the boys remained outside, Flash looks up at the starry sky before taking a sip of his drink with a smile.
