(GS3) Field: Beach
Jello:
A man with a camera appeared, talking about something with the Espoirs. As Haruka widened his view a bit from his position, he noticed a crowd. And a stage-
Oh boy.
BELLA was gonna make quite a debut it seemed. Haruka lightly cheered in anticipation. He scooped himself up into the lounge chair to watch, wagging his head like a dog to sand out of his hair.
A dog he was, sometimes. Rustling the last bits out of his hair, he sat patiently waiting for the show to start. He even grabbed candy from his bag, nibbling on a bit of strawberry chocolate sweets.
Hypeeeeeeeee.
NeoBuster:
Neo was walking toward the beach
"No better place to go then here" He said to himself
Then he noticed Hana and everyone else and a stage being setup so Neo walked up to everyone.
Hey everyone!" Neo said. Whats going on?" Neo asked
Hope:
Taken to backstage she was quickly escorted into the dressing room. She recognized these workers too, they were the same one from the Summer Festival. All of them were here cheerfully working, but now for her show, where she was set to perform. It was a strange feeling that two months ago she was more or less just a nuisance to these workers as she was a crazy fangirl who was running around the backstage. Well that was, until the end of the show. They all greeted her like an old friend as she walked past them, remembering her closing act from months back and her bravery in standing up for another performer's sake and saving the show. A lot has happened since then.
The dress looked awfully familiar, or rather, it looked like the exact replica of certain Vanguard unit's dress. Well, it was pink frills and ribbons. Penguins everywhere, just like what she wears to the formal Cray Council meetings. It was the dress that was made for her as the Princess of Cray modeled after that worn by Top Idol, Pacifica. The sight of it put her in awe, and then one of the other workers approached her, it was a strange looking object, he held with great care in his hands, but she couldn't tell what it was. She looked onto the mirror as he placed it over her head. It was her tiara, the one that had shattered apart, not put together and placed on her head again.
The make-up crew made quick work and eventually she had changed into the stage costume to preform her role. She stepped out of the dressing room and there he stood, Drake. Drake had flown all the way from the states to come and watch this show, thanking her for the comforting words from last time. In his hands, he held her hat. He gave her a hug and wished her good luck.

Drake: +3
The stage was set and the sound crew gave her a microphone stand as she requested. She wasn't in the mood to dance, at least not as she currently was. She wanted to pierce crowd's hearts in a different way tonight than what a standard idol would do. It's not that she wasn't ready to improvise a dance, but being out in the sea, she realized what would go well with this night, one where waves crashed rhythmically onto the shore and the world felt as if it were standing still. The stars in the sky were in stasis, and the moon that overlooked the beach put a spotlight upon the entire world. If she danced, she would ruin the balanced, but if she sang with all her heart and merged her voice with that of Earth's song, that would be true harmony.
It was the fact that Hana loved the song of Earth played by the sea.
In Cray it was the same, the sea played the songs of that world through Bermuda Triangle, though unlike on Earth, the song of Cray's seas have temporarily come to a hiatus.
The curtains opened and a single spotlight was set onto the center. Last time she performed here, she let out an emotion of happiness in order to keep her sadness, fear, and anger hidden. This time it was the exact opposite. She planned to express herself to this crowd, the convey her emotions through her voice, to share a tale of sadness to them, but it wasn't to hide a single thing. The song would let the crowd dig deep into her heart, the happiness that truly lie within it.
She grasped the microphone in her hands and closed her eyes.
"Hello minna," she waved at them, and said in a quiet voice, "I appreciate you all coming out today, and I remember you guys from last time. My name is Isabella or BELLA and I want to be an up and coming idol."
There was a murmur among the crowd, of course, they recognized her as someone else as well.
She began to look back on her experiences since the last time she took the stage here. She let out a faint smile, "Haha yes, if you guys play Vanguard, I am a fighter for that too," they let out a clap as that's what she showed them last time, a Vanguard fight with a brilliant idol performance.
"I've encountered a lot because of it, from when I first took the stage here, to nationals, to losing and gaining new friends, learning new things, leaving things behind, and eventually ending up here.... I'll sing a song for you all that is from my song... from my kokoro. The experiences I've had and things I've seen and desire to overcome."
It was the song that she sung out by herself. It was what she had sang to the world and now the world will sing with her as she takes the stage, walking the first step towards her dream.
The instrumentals started playing. The drums, the piano, the bass, and the guitar, all in perfect sync with the world. The stars glimmer with the piano's high pitch, the waves crashing on shore matched with the bass guitar's lower octaves. The drums reverberated with the beating of everyone's hearts and the guitarist's strokes traveled with the wind. The one to mix this all into one would be her voice, so she closed her eyes once more and prepared to mix the elements of music together into one. The song of the world played on.

This world would crumble, meet its end
It informs us about that mercilessly
What were you hearing, all alone?
I was dreaming a distant dream
What would you select for the best?
What would you give up?
I wonder, who am I
to have rights for deciding that?
The one I'd choose
has been decided from the beginning
I begin to ask the God,
This isn't a wrong decision, right?
I wasn't all alone
You were always by my side
I'd reach out my hand to you
I've nothing to fear
Even if we have become a monster,
we shall make it through the end together
That day was supposed to be the end.
Yet, have you become even stronger?
I was forever a coward,
You were always reckless
Move forward?
Or just give up every thing here?
I wonder, who am I
to have rights for deciding that?
It has been decided from the beginning
that we'd keep moving forward
I begin to ask the God
This isn't a wrong decision, right?
I wasn't all alone
When I recalled that,
I also found the meaning of life
No matter how much, I'd take it back
Because I've gained courage
the moment I trusted both of my hands
I wonder, since when
has my view towards you changed?
I'd like to be mingled as one
with things reflected in your eyes
Even tough, I also become afraid
about how much difficulties we'd face
But things you've entrusted to me
Those alone, I promise never let them go
I wonder just who am I?
Why do a mere human like me,
must bear a great role
that equals to the God?
I even become fed up
to move forward
Spit out the truth to the God
that I'm tired, and just want to rest
I heard a voice, was asking me
that a person I've been trusting
is a person with such attitude
Because I heard it,
as if someone else's matters
on the contrary, it has led me to desperation
I wasn't all alone
It seems that thing I've grasped
within my hand is the actual proof
Throw this weakness off,
Even if we have become a monster,
we shall make it back home together
Beryl:
Hana's song was gorgeous.
Satoshi was still sitting at the snack bar, but he had noticed the crowd gathering at a stage that got assembled. Hana got to sing, and her voice was absolutely beautiful. As the rest of the audience cheered and clapped, he too clapped. Maybe this is why Yukino had everyone gathered: she wanted to give her sister a great audience, in addition to enjoying a casual day at the beach.
Sweet of her, really, considering what had happened recently---
Thinking of the lyrics in conjunction with those memories made his mood drop immediately. Was Hana still struggling with the fact that so many demands had been placed on her because her older sister had failed in some regards? How was it that Yukino had gotten out of her depression so strongly? He hadn't really gotten the chance to talk to either of them since the younger sister left while her senior had been briefly stuck in the Rift.
Satoshi sighed and ordered another basket of fries. Despite the concert, everything he was trying not to think about had wound back and made him feel rough. Hopefully this funk would leave soon, but he really didn't feel like he could go over to the group at this point, even if they felt he belonged.
Hana +5 AP
Beryl:
Satoshi looked out over the water. The past 24 hours had been ones of reflection. Going to dinner with Hana and Haruka and their friends wasn't too bad. Even the Floor Monkey, the person who had given Yukino an awful time, seemed like a pretty reasonable and nice kid, for what it was worth. It was kind of unfortunate the whole group didn't go together (he had been interested in meeting Seifer's companion a bit), but nevertheless, the steak he had was pretty decent. He would've ordered more, but most of the dinner was conversation and good tidings, something that wasn't very frequent with him as of late.
He sat cross-legged in the sand in his old tanktop. The coat was still very much a thing and more of a permanent part of his attire, but that didn't necessarily mean it had to stay on all the time. This was what he used to wear consistently when he played Neo Nectar, and even though those days were gone, it felt nice to relive the good memories at the beach, at least just a little bit.
He sighed. Well, yeah, it was only a little bit, because the past also brought a little pain with it. He wondered what Yukino was up to, but he felt like texting wouldn't reach her. He also felt like maybe prodding at Hana or Haruka, but their days were probably up as well. So he sat and waited. Maybe someone would show up, who knows.
