Episode 8 - Lost
"You probably wonder how we ended up here?" - A voice is heard as we see what looks like a deserted island with parts of a destroyed boat being seen and a now turned off bonfire
"It all started some days ago." - The voice is revealed to be a messy looking Chizuru with two openly wide eyes in a fetal position sitting next to a palm tree
Some Days Ago - Recording Studio Tokyo
"Yes, yes. Alright, I got it... Yes I'll tell them, bye." - Chizuru is seem talking on the phone while the rest of the band are resting
"You know, I always wondered Iori. How did you made the previous members of the band leave?" - Athena
"They realized they weren't fit to be playing with me and left." - Iori
"Why don't you tell them the truth, that you tricked them into firming a contract where you gained more than them?" - Chizuru appears
"Kagura! You-Yes, that is true." - Iori
"Typical Yagami." - Maki
"Yes, this is why I don't let him take care of the financial aspects of the group anymore. Iori, you know that I love you but you're so greedy sometimes too." - Chizuru
"..." - Iori
"In that case, I guess we are lucky that all of us wins the same quantity of money." - Terry
"I only spend my cents in bird food and paying the rent of the room where I live." - Nakoruru
"I-Well I do spend it on clothes." - Athena
"Ha! Me on the other hand, I save my money for good worthwile things." - Kyo
"Yes, like tons and tons of gasoline?" - Athena
"One of this days, you're going to burn yourself, Kyo." - Chizuru
"Hmph! I would like to see that!" - Says Iori getting a not so good look from Athena and Kyo
"Anyway, is a good thing you all brought this theme. Because I have been thinking that we could use some vacations, to free us from the stress and pressure of the stage." - Chizuru
"Something like a trip?" - Athena
"How about some vacations to China?" - Kyo
"Or Brazil, I always wanted to go there." - Terry
"I would like to go to france." - Nakoruru
"How about Italy?" - Athena
"No, no. Lets go to Russia!" - Maki
"Calm, calm guys. I was thinking of something... Less expensive." - Chizuru
"And I think I know what kind of trip." - Chizuru smiles
"A boat trip? A boat trip?!" - Iori and the band are seem standing in the ports looking at the boat Kagura rented
"Yes, you know how much I love the sea, Iori. I rented this for our so well deserved rest trip." - Chizuru
"Chizuru, don't take it bad. But, this isn't what any of us had in mind." - Athena
"You won't say the same once you put a foot in this beauty! Come on, jump over guys!" - Chizuru steps in the big boat she rented
The band has no other option but jump inside as Kagura uses the keys to start driving the boat on the ocean
The trip goes for the most part calm as the band start to enjoy their time in Kagura's rented boat
"You know, I think Ms. Kagura was right, this is a fun trip." - Nakoruru
Nakoruru, Maki and Kyo are seen using fishing rods to get some fish from the ocean
"Ah, the heat of the sun is soo good." - Says Athena tanning on the boat with Terry
"This is life!" - Terry is seem resting next to her on shorts drinking from a soda listening to music
"..." - Yagami is the only one who doesn't like he is enjoying the trip
"Want a spicy fish kebab, Iori?" - Chizuru sporting her white bikini approaches her couple offering food
"No, I don't want none of your stupid fish." - Iori
"Aww, why you always have to be so grumpy. Everyone is having fun, why you always can't have fun?" - Chizuru
"Is always the same everytime, I tried to do something nice for the two of us and you always are so ungrateful, you always act so grumpy! You never take into account how I just wanted to give us all a rest." - Chizuru
"I didn't asked for this, frankly. If I had to pick between being in a boat in the middle of the ocean and returning to the studio, I would prefer to return to the studio!" - Iori
This last comment makes Chizuru start to feel sad
"*Sniff* Idiot!" - Chizuru
"Mother was right, I should had listening to her when she suggested me to not get involved with you! You damn ungrateful bastard, you never appreciate what I do for us!" - Chizuru
"Perhaps you should had listened to your mom, she sounds like a less annoying woman than you!" - Iori
"*Sigh* Ah here we go again." - Whispers Maki as the group sees the heated argument between the couple right there
"Should we stop them?" - Terry
"Only if he chokes her." - Maki
The couple keeps arguing with each other, ignoring everyone and everything spitting their venom and complains about each other there
"Huh?" - Nakoruru sees something in the distance
"Ms. Kagura! Iori-san!" - Nakoruru screams at both
"What?" - Both turn to see her
"There's a palm tree ahead!" - Says Nakoruru pointing at a small island where the boat was heading closer and closer, a small island with a palm tree
"WHAT?!" - Chizuru and Iori reaction but they do it too late as despite trying to stop the boat, the boat impacts with the palm tree island with the front part damaged because of the crash
"Oh no, this isn't good!" - Chizuru
"See what is happening, we lost the front part of the boat, we are about to drown if we don't do something quickly! All because of your negativity, Iori!" - Chizuru
As the boat starts to sink, Kagura and the band jumps to a small boat that was there in case of emergency
The band now in the small boat see the rented one sinking fully on the ocean
"Well the owner of the boat isn't going to be happy." - Chizuru
"Forget about that, how are we going to return home now?" - Terry
"We are now lost in the middle of the ocean, very far away from the shores of Tokyo!" - Kyo and the rest realize they are now very far away from japan lost in the middle of the pacific ocean
"Is all your fault Iori!" - Chizuru
"I hope you're happy, Iori!" - Athena
"Are we really going to die here in the middle of the ocean?" - Nakoruru
"With enough luck a shark will come and kill us." - Maki
"Shut up! All of you! Stop being so negative like Iori, I got all of you in this and I'll get us out, we have to pull back to the shores of Tokyo, we can do that!" - Chizuru
and the band start pulling trying to move back to the shore of Tokyo
Hours go by, the band take turns to keep pulling towards home... The hours start to become days as the band start to lose hope to return back home
"We need to keep moving." - Chizuru
"But Chizuru, we are tired." - Terry
"Yes, we have been pulling for days now. I don't feel my arms anymore." - Kyo
"Chizuru, you know I don't like being so negative but... I think we should start to make us to the idea that we aren't going to be able to return back before we die of starvation." - Athena
"Grrr... Yes, you're right Athena. We aren't going to make it, we have been three days here trying to make our way back to the shore of Tokyo but we can't." - Chizuru
grabs her arms feeling the pain of having been pulling back to the shore without rest
"..." - Iori looks at his reflection on the ocean starting to feel guilty about what he caused
"This is awful!" - Maki
"Huh?" - But suddenly Iori turns to look at the horizon, as the rest of the group close their eyes starting to accept they are done for. Yagami sees a small ray of hope in the horizon, a not so far looking small island in the middle of the ocean
"..." - Iori starts pulling the boat towards the island
"Iori? What are you doing?" - Chizuru
"Shut up and start pulling! All of you! There's something in the horizon! Is an island!" - Iori
"An-an island!" - The group look at the horizon in the south, seeing the almost close island there with them all using all their forces to approach the small formation of earth
"We are almost close guys!" - Chizuru is marveled at how they are almost now closer and closer to the island
"Could it be? Some land were we can actually rest?" - Athena
The band had done the impossible arriving at the island finally
"Finally some earth!" - Chizuru
"Look a coconut tree!" - Chizuru and the group see the only way to finally combat their starvation with them forming a human stair to grab the coconuts from the tree
"Nakoruru, give me your knife!" - Chizuru
"Here!" - Nakoruru
The band enjoys a drink from the coconut finally having something to eat after so long
The group takes some time to stablish a camp for themselves in the meanwhile working together cutting some trees to prepare a camp
As night arrives, the band sit in front of a bonfire
"So what's the plan now, Chizuru?" - Athena
"Well, is a risky plan but I have an idea of how we could get some help. Well two ideas." - Chizuru shows the radio of the boat that she sneaked on the small boat
"One is if we figured a way to repair the radio of the boat, we could maybe stablish contact back with the owner of the store in japan." - Chizuru
"That or we can use Nakoruru's hawk... " - Chizuru points at Mamahaha who is seeing in his cage being feed by Nakoruru
"(For once i'm glad Nakoruru brought that bird.)" - Chizuru
"We let him rest today and tomorrow when the sun comes up, we send him with a note on his foot, see if he manages to get some help out there to get us out of here
"I'm sure there has to be some some of yatch or boat moving around meters from here. They have to pick up the note and rescue us." - Chizuru
"Sounds like you have already thought of ways to get us out of here." - Kyo
"Of course, trust me, guys. Nothing bad is going to happen to us, we will return home safe and sound." - Chizuru
"Now go to rest. We will talk tomorrow." - Chizuru sees the group going to sleep with her staying there sitting in a log drinking from her coconut
"..." - Everyone leaves except for Yagami
"Aren't you going to sleep, Iori?" - Chizuru takes a drink of her coconut
"I-I don't." - Iori
"I don't know how to say this Kagura but... I never tend to say this but-" - Iori
"What?" - Chizuru
"I-I'm-" - Iori
"I'm sorry. About how I treated you, about having caused this... I should had listened to you. If I had done that, we wouldn't be stuck here in this damn island... I'm sorry, for what I told you there." - Iori looks genuinely regretful
Chizuru smiles hearing that
"Apology accepted, you know that I can't never get too angry at you, want a drink out of my coconut?" - Chizuru approaches Yagami with a seductive smile
"No. But I think I know how I can compensate you." - Iori
"Oh yes? What do you have in mind?" - Chizuru
"Whatever you want to do." - Iori
Chizuru pushes Yagami with this one falling out of the log on the sand
"Come on, Iori. You already know what I want." - Says Kagura with a seductive smile being on top of Yagami
"Hehehe... Isn't like we could do much in this place anyway." - Iori
Iori and Kagura kiss each other under the starry sky
The next day, the band are seen standing in the shore of the beach, preparing the note that Mamahaha will carry with himself in search for a boat that can rescue them
"Go Mamahaha! Go and find some help!" - Nakoruru lets her hawk fly away in search for help
As the band patiently waits for help to arrive, they spend their hours doing various things, from playing bowling with the coconuts, carving wood and talking between each other
"Where's Athena and Kyo?" - Chizuru
"They went to walk around the island." - Maki
"Yeah suuure. As if I didn't know those two." - Chizuru
"Oh well, we need to talk about something serious, the coconuts are already starting to run out and I think it wasn't a smart idea to cut the palm trees to make those small refuges for each of us." - Chizuru
"Hi, we are back." - Kyo and Athena return looking very calm for the shock of Nakoruru, Terry and Yagami but not for Kagura
"What were you guys talking about?" - Athena
"We were discussing the fact that we are starting to run out of food and supplies. We need to think of something, because we don't know how much more days we are going to stay here." - Chizuru
The group spends the next two hours thinking but they have no idea what to do
As days and weeks past up, the starvation starts becoming more and more intense between the group with this making the band unable to think right and feel alot of pressure
*Grrr* - Chizuru touches her stomach feeling this one growling suffering of hunger
"I can't take this anymore, Athena! We need something to eat!" - Chizuru screams to Athena as the two women are starting to become nuts
"I know Chizuru, but unless Nakoruru has some luck getting some fish, I doubt we are going to get something soon." - Athena
Both girls look at Nakoruru kneeling close to the shore stabbing the ocean trying to get a fish passing by
"I'm so hungry." - Chizuru
"..." - In that moment, Athena feeling hungry too, stares intensively at Kyo and Yagami talking in the horizon
Panting passing her tongue across her lips, Athena's vision becomes blurry with her vision clearing itself out now seeing Kyo and Yagami as two tasty chickens
"That's it!" - Whispers Athena as an idea comes to her mind
"Chizuru, pss Chizuru?" - Athena
"Yes?" - Chizuru
Athena approaches Chizuru whispering something
"Wait what?! Athena have you finally go nuts? You're suggesting me that we should-No I don't want to do that." - Chizuru
"You're suggesting we should eat the boys?!" - Chizuru
"You're telling me that I should eat my dear Yagami-bear?!" - Chizuru is unable to believe this
"Trust me I don't want to eat Kyo too, but is eat or be eaten, besides what assure us that they aren't planning to eat us as well right now. Look at them! They are probably already planning to eat us while we sleep. We can't trust them anymore and this it the only way we will be able to surpass this hunger and survive." - Athena
"..." - Chizuru looks at both men, then she grabs her stomach feeling pain
"I'm sorry, Iori..." - Whispers Chizuru accepting Athena's idea
As the afternoon arrives, the girls are seen sitting next to the boys surrounding them
"So you girls told us that you two had find something to eat in the island so we don't die of starvation?" - Kyo
"Finally! I feel really hungry." - Iori
Chizuru and Athena can't help but just look at each other winking with this suspicious smiles and twitching eyes
"Yes, about that." - Chizuru
"We indeed found something to eat. Is something that will surprise you guys and believe us, it was a tough decision." - Athena
"But we came to an agreement and we a happy to inform you that-" - Chizuru
"We are going to eat you!" - Both girls show terrifying smiles as Athena and Chizuru rise two knifes that they took from Nakoruru
"This has to be a joke isn't it?" - Kyo
"No, now don't move and I'm assure you this will be quick and painless Kyo-san." - Athena tries to stab Kyo starting to chase him
"Kagura have you finally go nuts? What about those last nights together, didn't they mean nothing?" - Iori
"Oh now you care about my feelings, isn't it? Shut up and don't make this harder than it is!" - Chizuru pulls a bottle of ketchup out of nowhere pouring said ketchup on Yagami's head before trying to stab him
Yagami pushes Chizuru making her fall of hunger, with him getting up starting to run away
"Come back here, Iori!" - Chizuru
"Oh Kyo-san, don't run away from mom!" - Athena
Both women start chasing after Kyo and Yagami with the intentions to eat
"Run Kusanagi run!" - Iori
"This has to be a damn joke!" - Kyo
The girls chase the two around the island when suddenly
"STOP!" - Nakoruru with a big piece of wood stands in their way hitting both women making their fall in the ground droping their knifes
"Nakoruru! Move out!" - Chizuru
"Yes, we aren't going to die of hunger." - Athena
"Look at you two, you two disgust me! Don't you realize what you're about to do? You two are about to eat your boyfriends and when they are gone, you two are going to start crying regretting that! Think about it!" - Nakoruru berates both women pointing the obvious at them
"*Sniff*" - Both girls start to cry realizing Nakoruru is right
"You're right! We can't do this!" - Both women hug each other crying
"Now, get back to sit there, ask Kyo and Yagami for an apology and take a look with Maki if Mamahaha is returning or not." - Nakoruru crosses her arms acting like the voice of reason
"Hey, Nakoruru!" - Terry appears suddenly out of a big cauldron filled with water being heated by a bonfire
"I just wanted to thank you for preparing this warm shower for me, I really needed one." - Says Terry resting in the heating cauldron as if nothing
Both Athena and Chizuru open their eyes widely seeing that becoming speechless
"So much for not eating your friends eh?" - Both girls look at Nakoruru annoyed
"Well, what can I say, a girl needs to eat too you know, hehehe." - Nakoruru is nervous
"Share your Terry-soup with us, if you don't want to be part of the menu too, Nakoruru?" - Chizuru
"No! That's my meal!" - Nakoruru
"Then we are going to have to get rid of you first!" - The two woman grab Nakoruru tying her to a table smiling, while Kyo and Yagami are seeing this hidding behind two trees
"We need to stop them before they eat Nakoruru!" - Kyo
"Grrr... Yes, you're right, we need to stop this. Should we eat them instead?" - Iori
"I call dips on Athena." - Kyo
"Fine I will take Kagura." - Iori rolls his eyes
The two men finally come to terms that there's no other way to survive
Yagami and Kyo run screaming starting a fight with Athena and Chizuru while Nakoruru tied up and Terry coming out of his shower take a look at the four attacking each other with Yagami choking Kagura, while Athena tackles Kyo biting his arm
"Guys, guys!" - In that moment Maki appears with a happy face, only to be shocked by what she sees
"WHAT?!" - The entire group turn to look at Maki
"Mamahaha finally returned and he came back with help... A fishing boat is arriving in the horizon." - Maki
"..." - The group are surprised as they stop attacking each other getting up coming with Maki seeing a fishing boat having made his way after all those days to save them
"Hello, are you the owners of this pretty bird-Oh boy if isn't the band of fighters! Me and my crew are fans!" - Says a woman of blonde hair sporting a purple dress
"Well yes, that's our bird." - Chizuru
"Oh this is awesome, then I guess it was a good thing I followed the note you wrote, enter! I'll take your group back to Tokyo." - The woman named Bonne Jennet owner of a fishing company know as the Lillien Knights lets the group enter in her boat
"Is over? We are finally going to return home?" - Chizuru can't believe this nightmare is over
"It seems that way." - Athena
Both girls and both men can't help but look at each other
"I'm sorry!" - The four of them say to each other with them nodding accepting their apologies
"What's wrong, Nakoruru? You look annoyed?" - Asks Maki and Terry sitting with the annoyed looking Nakoruru, as Kyo, Iori, Chizuru and Athena join them
"If I knew Mamahaha was going to be successful in bringing help, I shouldn't had eaten my hand!" - Nakoruru
Nakoruru removes her glove showing her skeleton hand for the shock of the entire group with Maki passing out
The End
