It's the final song, the decisive song that will end this concert, and the battle with Yumi-senpai. She was worried about what was happening outside, even more after the skies turned red. But, 'I believe in them.' It seems Yuhi stuck to his promise and stayed put too. If Yuhi is doing that, then she ought to follow his example.
Her thoughts broke off whenYumi-senpai appeared behind her and patted her shoulder.
"Take a deep breath, one, two-"
Sumire followed those instructions, and her shoulders relaxed.
"Do you love music? Do you like singing?"
"I do. I have so much love for it that I can't hold back anymore."
"I will put everything into this moment."
The two of them have shared the same feelings towards music from the very start. Yumi-senpai must have noticed that otherwise, she would not have accepted her to be her disciple.
Sumire: Where do you want to go?
Yumi: What do you want to be?
Sumire: Picture it in your mind however you like
Yumi: Think of what's right before you
Sumire: and of what's to come
Yumi: The excitement builds as the view turns colorful
Sumire: Saying, "I can't."
Yumi: is no good
Both: Rather than that, "let's give it a try!"
Her dream started because of Yuhi, but then she met those guys.
..
At Tsukuhara high last year
Sumire couldn't believe they had found her. 'I was careful not to leave any tracks, and this is an abandoned building. How did they know I would come here?'
"Senpai...why?"
"There's nothing wrong, is there? For a while, I've noticed it too." he trailed off, holding up a piece of paper, causing her eyes to widen. " Besides, this is the perfect timing for this too." Arashi wore a tender gaze on his face as he said this.
Nao casually hits him with his spear, " Quit acting cool and hogging the spotlight."
"Right, it's not fair at all." Sei agreed.
"Good grief," Masato said with a deep sigh.
"But our harmony only seems to work well with your songs, lady. "Masaru said with a wink.
Mikaze nodded and smiled. "We saw one of the songs in the pack you gave us a while back and realized that the melody was written for seven The painting and the double centers. We realized what it was you were searching for-" He trailed off. "Lately, you've looked down too; that's why we wanted to do something to cheer you up."
"The only way we can do that is writing the best lyrics for your songs," Masaru added.
Sumire suddenly felt Daiki squeeze her hand and smiled warmly at her.
"Didn't you find your answer?"
…
Right now, she cannot meet with them; to pursue her current goals, she has to abandon them.
Imagination is what leads to my future self
Admiration is what becomes my hopes and dreams
Having a goal is what drives me forward
Along the path to where I'll realize my aspirations
Sumire: Keep running straight ahead,
Yumi: as believing in your own feelings
Both: is where it all starts
Yumi: I want to fly high and try shining bright
Sumire: We're able to do anything
Yumi: so let's start⇒
Sumire: Having even more fun, closer to reality
Yumi: I can't stop myself just thinking about it
It was shortly after Midnight five's first performance. The five got invited to a prestigious music show, and they invited her to watch. It was then where she decided that she would do anything to make sure they achieved their dreams.
..
At Stadium - Tokyo, a few months ago.
She could see five colors, five different colors. It is not a rainbow, nor do these colors blend well together. They are distinct and different from one another. But why does it feel right? What is this? This is the first time she has ever seen such a stage. How often has she watched their stages individually or as Yuhi and just Quatro light?
However, there is something different. Sumire couldn't calm her heartbeat. She quickly left the special guest seats and headed towards the gate. But before she could leave, she glanced up and spotted five people.
"According to my calculations, that was perfect; you also think so, do you not?" Jun said, bending down and placing a kiss on her hand.
"Indeed, next time we can all fall together," Tetsuo said, doing the same with her left hand.
Kou suddenly leaned close and grabbed hold of her arm, ensuring that it was high up before he clasped their hands together. "Yay, we did it !"
"Sumire! We did a great job, eh? What's with that surprised look of yours, stupid." Ran said, flicking her forehead.
She turned to her black-haired boyfriend, who immediately embraced her, causing the crowd to go rather wild.
"W---ait, we're in front of people...."
Rather since Yuhi just joined them, he shouldn't be doing something like this. " No, I want to make it clear. That you are my girl."
Doesn't everybody know that already? What is he trying to do?
"A-are you guys stupid?" Sumire exclaimed, flustered.
"If we are stupid, what does that make you, my dear?"
Gah- when Yuhi says things like that with a smile on his face, it is hard for her. Moreover, his smile is very dangerous for her heart. Sumire wrapped her arms around his waist, and she felt him intertwining their hands.
"Thank you." She whispered ever so quietly, but she knew the others heard her.
...
Yumi:: The power to make things come true. Yes
Sumire Everyone has it deep inside
Both: Imagination is what opens the door to tomorrow
And soon a new world will come into view
The stronger your feelings, the greater your power
Be brave, and your map will spread out before you
Yumi: One day, I'll become my ideal self
Sumire: All I've got to do is look within me
So many people have given her the strength to sing, to continue even though it is painful and suffocating for her. She is still frightened, but she wants to convey these important feelings.
'I want to continue to sing.'
No matter how many people resent her in the future, no matter how much malice there is in the world. She will never give up singing again. For her, singing is her lifeline; without it, she cannot survive.
The months she went by without singing were so very painful. But she no longer has to do that.
She will sing and make sure it reaches everybody, even those who resent her.
Imagination is what brings forth a new reality
So let's fantasize as much as we can
The bigger the picture, the greater the possibilities
So let's dream up something beyond imagination
Yumi: Even if it seems impossible.
Sumire: I don't want to just give up
Let's make a miracle of our own
The board behind them changed the moment the song ended, showing a large picture of Yumi-senpai and her. Then a small bar gauge gradually fills. Her eyes widened when she noticed that Yumi-senpai's had stopped, and hers kept going.
Sumire walks over to the mic, "To all of my fans who have supported me. I'm grateful beyond words. Thank you very much!"
She felt so overwhelmed and quickly passed on the mic to the purple-haired woman.
"I am glad that I decided to be an idol. In all my years on stage, I've had the same wish. I wished that my singing and dancing could bring to as many people's hearts as possible. So many people have come all the way here to watch our concert, who have smiled at our singing and dancing. That is my greatest happiness. I have now done my idol activities on the greatest stage, with my greatest rivals, with the greatest passion."
Yumi-senpai, really for everything you've done.. She can't be anything more than grateful.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
