The sizzling sound of a frying pan was all that could be heard in this little ramen shop in the Savage South District. Given, it wasn't that far off the crossing with Entertainment East and was right on the main street. There was a ramen bowl neon sign outside saying "Kurogami Ramen" and the whole place was quite eastern themed in the lay-out. It had taken Ryuu a while but he finally go together the funds for this place... Only to have his mom move in with him. Not that he minded, the company was welcome and he'd never kick his mom out but... The black haired chef wished she wouldn't meddle with his business so much. While the chef himself was standing in the moderate open kitchen his mother was enjoying a meal he made for her earlier. It was "lunchtime" after all and Ryuu was preparing something for himself as well. While she was his mother and had 2 decades on him, she still looked quite beautiful. Long flowing blond hair tied into a practical side pony tail, still not a single grey hair and an elegant purple kimono with a flower pattern the middle aged woman was enjoying a bowl of Ryuu's cooking. Next to her were two kids in a high school uniform. His younger siblings Kyo and Ryo, the twins. Wearing a rather stylish black uniform with a white trim, Ryo, the boy of the two, was playing with his chopsticks after finishing his meal. His uniform was a bit messy, tie undone and shirt untucked. He had short black hair and was quite similar to his older brother in terms of looks. Kyo, a proper young lady was still eating her bowl as she very carefully didn't want to ruin her uniform. The difference in the male and female highschool uniform here was that that the female one had a skirt and a ribbon instead of pants and a tie. Stockings and whatnot were optional but Kyo opted for a pair of white kneesocks. Her hair was long and straight, black of colour and she had a small set of glasses on her nose with a black rim. Her manners and even seating at the bar of the little ramen place was dignified in contrast to her twin brother's seating. Additionally it seemed she took more after her mother in terms of looks but was even more proper than her. Finishing up her bowl, she let out a soft sigh and placed her chopsticks on the bowl. Ryuu himself, a smiling somewhat short black haired chef was just done with his own meal. A particular meal constructed for a long day of hard work he walked out the bar from behind his furnace of crafts with a personal bowl. Wearing an apron around his waist, it was black and had a single pocket in front of it. Undoing a white headband for his cooking hi put the cloth in the apron's pocket. The rest of his outfit consisted of a pair of black pants with a matching leather belt, a black formal shirt, nearly tucked in and a strong green tie around his neck, which he currently had stuffed into the shirt during cooking. Fixing that as he was sitting down with his bowl, the man smiled. His whole attire was fairly formal and the only thing he lacked was a jacket at this point. Putting it down and grabbing a set of chopsticks the man spoke: "Itadakimasu~!" the man remarked with a wide smile as he started to dig in. His eating was fast but still somewhat dignified. Not quite like many of those characters in manga at all. "Bro, it's only 10:30 am, what are we even having lunch for..." Ryo asked the chef. Ryuu wanted to speak up but was stopped by his younger sister who made a zipping motion on her mouth and gave him a stern look. Ryuu smiled a bit and decided to swallow first. "Well, I suppose it is the first time you're helping out outside of last summer right? Once noon hits, everyne's lunch breaks start and tourists will come here so we need to eat now since we won't be eating until 4 pm likely. Hence the hearty meal, ku ku ku~! Hard day of work ahead!" the trickster spoke as he continued his meal. Ryo only sighed deeply while Kyo got up and turned towards the staff entrance: "I'm going to go change..." she spoke a bit cold. Ryuu was well aware she just wanted to go home and study some more but since they were staying with their mother this week, and his mother staying at Ryuu's well... She also just felt bad just sitting in her books while they were working below. Giving her a smile as she left to change, Ryuu finished up his meal. "Goshisosama deshita~!" Ryuu spoke in a word of thanks to whatever pasta god of floating spaghetti there was out there. Not that he was religious mind you. His younger brother shook his head: "I see you're not minding her as usual. You know today she really is a bit upset though." Ryo continued while he decided to clean up the bowls. Ryuu tiled his head with a surprised expression. His mother nodded as she also had just finished her meal: "You don't know, Ryuu-chan? Annabelle Amagi is giving a concert in the East today and Kyo-chan's a big fan of hers. She was looking forward to it since it's a very rare occasion for one of her idols to stop by. She even insisted on having her school papers done today, before the holidays and all so she could have the whole day to be prepared for this." his mother spoke as he placed her hands gracefully on her lap and gave the chef a bright smile. Ryuu was a bit surprised to hear of this. Mostly because the name of this idol didn't ring any bells at all. Sighing a bit but still keeping up his smile he shook his head. When Kyo came back down, dressed in her work clothes, Ryuu was waiting for her by the stairs up to his living area. Smiling as usual she just gave him a glare and walked past him until he put his hand on her head. "You can just tell me if you have plans today you know. I heard from mom you wanted to see... Annabelle Amagi was it? Well, you guys helped me out a lot during this first hard summer so... I closed shop for today." Ryuu spoke as he removed his hand from her head. She turned to him with a blush and then stomped on his foot. Groaning in pain but keeping up the smile, he shook his head a bit. "Jerk... Tell me before I change, now I have to change again..." she said as she ran up the stairs again. Ryuu sighed as he entered the little restaurant again and took a seat at one of the tables. "So nice of you Ryuu, you'd probably get a lot of customers if you stayed open. The twins can go on their own you know." his mother replied still smiling from the same spot. Ryuu shook his head. "It's quite alright, I'm a bit interested myself. Besides it'd be very busy and troublesome without them, especially because of the event... Plus you can get some rest too~!" Ryuu answered her with a wide grimace. His mother shook her head and Ryo just smiled widely and happily. "You're a sucker Ryuu. And to think you're so damn strong yet get bossed around by a 16 year old girl..." he teased his older brother. Ryuu just scoffed a bit and made a hand pillow behind his head as he stared at the ceiling. "The concert's a bit later right? Is there enough time for me to run an errand? I've been wanting to visit the market for some new spices..." Ryuu asked and his brother checked the clock in the room. "Yeah, you got some time left. Should be enough for a trip like that." the sibling replied with confidence. Ryuu smiled a bit wider and got up. Leaving his apron in place, he headed for the door: "I'll be back soon. Hold down the fort!" Once outside he made a brisk walking pace for the market. Living in Savage south, the place wasn't much of a nice sight, in fact it was a lot like an industrial slum. At least main street was cleaned up a bit and somewhat shinier to look at but as soon as you made a couple turns, you'd find yourself in some dangerous neighbourhoods. Maybe he should have taken a sword with him? No, he'll just attract attention with a weapon on him. "Maybe today I can find that coriander from the latter half of the grand line... Would that go well with salmon or maybe something like a river lobster? Perhaps crab or pork?" Ryuu contemplated as he made his way to the shopping area. The day was young so he should be able to find at least something innteresting there. Tech used

"This is innacceptable, do you hear me?!?!?" "Miss Amagi-" "Innacceptable!!!! This was outrageous, blasphemous, inconceivable! Annabelle still could not believe what she was looking at, as the very idea of such a thing existing without all of the necessary components being a crime worthy of the devil himself! Perhaps the reason behind her temper tantrum, though she would never use such words to describe her current attitude as such childish fits were beneath her, was because it was early in the morning (ignoring the fact that it was about 11:00) and she had just woken up (again, ignoring the fact that it was about 11:00), but that still didn't mean what she was looking at wasn't simply flabbergasting! There Annie was, in her cute, pink onsies pajamas with hair that wasn't even tidied up yet and still messy from her tossing and turning in bed all night and a very upset expression on her face, looking at the most ridiculous thing in the world: a shipping wall. The day had started out like any other one: because it was the day of a concert, Annie had been able to sleep in to make sure she was 100% well rested. The ship's cook, or at least the fill in until they could find a replacement for the old one who quit(something about Annie not having a big enough "bust" like the old owner had, which was rather silly since she nor Dani had any statues of them erected in the ship to her knowledge), fixed her special breakfast like always and her head maid, Azuki, and two of her assistants came to deliver it to her while she was still in bed. She ate, they cleaned, the four girls talked and gossiped the whole time, etc. Then, right when she was finishing up and ready for the maids to help her get dressed and what not, one of them asks Azuki if the rumors were true and that her shipping wall had been updated. Of course Annie had no idea such rumors were going around, and although she had owned the ship for about a few weeks by this point, she had never even heard of this supposed shipping wall before (God knows how she hadn't yet...). Of course this was the most ridiculous thing she had ever heard of, a wall dedicated to matching up potential couples using weird "troll" romance as Azuki put it, and it is precisely because of this absurdity that Annie had to see it for herself. And when she finally gets a good look at it herself, what does she find? That she's not even on the darn thing!!!! I mean what kind of updated shipping wall was it if the owner of the friggin' ship wasn't even on the thing? "But Miss Amagi, I thought you said it was stupid and didn't care about it." "But that was before I knew I wasn't on it!!!" "So if you were on it, you wouldn't care and would hate it?" "Of course! Why would anyone ever want to see themselves get partnered up romantically with someone based on the desires and opinions of someone else?!?" "Well actually, Miss Amagi, only two of the four quadrants involve romance. You see..." Oh great, she got Azuki going again. Jeez, it took about ten minutes the first time; who knew how long it would be this time! I mean she kind of got the heart and the diamond, but the spade and the freaking clover?!? Give her a break; romance couldn't possibly be this complicated, not even in the sick mind of a rather odd individual. Heck, next Azuki would be preaching to her about some kind of romance system where there were nine symbols, and you could have more than one at once; she could call it something else silly like leprechaun romance! To be completely honest and not coy with you, Annie wasn't even sure why she was so upset to begin with. None of the men that Azuki would know would be even remotely good fits for her, including her manager who was just a party pooper at best, and it's not like they had any super hot Oh crap, Azuki looks like she's wrapping up. Nod and agree, Annie, nod and agree! "Umm, yeah. That makes sense...." Annie said while nodding her head in agreement. "Good, now that we got that out of the way, you really need to get dressed, Miss Amagi. Come along now." Before she had a chance to even consider what they just got out of the way, Annie was suddenly grabbed by the collar and practically dragged all the way back to her room. Even though she was probably much stronger than the young maid, something about her just made it hard to resist. Of course unlike the maid's previous mistress, it's not like it was because she was cute and there was any attraction to the young lady that made her treat her nice, but.... ok, maybe it was because she was really really cute and adorable. But she was straight, you hear? Straight! |

Up, down, up, down, up. Marching along the putrid sidewalks of the Savage South was none other than the mortified archer. She and her signature pair of bunny ears gazed upon the sights of the streets; the walls of the buildings were begrimed with mold – the once solid gray stones had now been stained with the griminess of green. "How revolting," Ellie mumbled under her breath. With each step, she could feel the a bump, then something squishy... then, something icky. A broken smile began to forge on her expression, her lips twitching towards the right. On the inside, the inner child of the archer cried an ocean far purer than the streets of the district. "To think that they would ask me, out of all people to venture into the town to visit a rather incredulous shop to pick up navigation tools... which are possibly not even legitimate," she complained, her eyes gazing forward with a deathly glare. Within minutes of going through of what was believed to be the equivalent of walking through an actual horror house, Ellie had finally arrived at her destination: the docks. But, what her eyes had gazed upon was not what she had expected—the group she had been traveling with had been sailing off without her. Before she was able to mutter a single word, the security guards of the docks had raised a single firearm and aimed it directly at the ship; within a single second, a shot had been fired and the ship had been set ablaze. "Excuse me," Ellie spoke, tapping the male guard on the shoulder. He turned around to look at her and was taken back by her rather unique appearance. "If I may inquire, why did you burn ou—er, I mean their ship down?" she asked, stuttering halfway to correct herself. The guard squinted his eyes and glared at her ever so slightly, suspicious of her intents. "They were caught stealing from various shops moments ago. They were deceived into believing that the items would simply be confiscated and be deported from the island, but they should know much better than to trust that. Pirates are getting stupider by the day," he complained before marching off. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Nothing but a blank expression covered the face of the archer. Lifting up three fingers on her right hand, she placed them upon her forehead and shook from side to side. A great sigh was then heaved. "To think I was fooled into believing I was traveling with a group of genuine travelers..." she began in a sarcastic tone while turning around to head back into the Savage South. "I suppose my suspicions of them being nothing but a wild pack of dubious swines proved to be correct after all." Annoyed, ticked off and rather in a poor mood overall due to the conditions of her situation, Ellie was beginning to find it difficult to retain her sanity. She looked around for other ships within the vicinity, but all ended up to no avail. And so, the archer gathered the will to carry on and paced forward with a slight dreadfulness to her pace. As a sign of mourning for her ride off the island, her bunny ears began to droop. The archer wandered around the various streets, attempting to search for a single source of light within this foul darkness. A ride off the island, a directional guide leading to different docks, anything! Ellie grumbled in frustration – she didn't quite understand what she had exactly done to deserve this torment. Was it because she refused to let the travelers touch her bunny ears? Or was it because she threatened to chop their hands off and sew them to their foreheads when they were millimeters away from touching Mr. Fae? Those were the questions she didn't quite know the answer to. 'I'm so sorry, Fae-Fae... I promise, I'll get you off this island as soon as possible, once I figure out how that is...' she wept in her mind. Ellie continued her journey to search for the bridge, which was becoming a rather unfortunate trip considering the amounts of lefts and rights she had to take. But, within time, she had soon arrived. Blocking the entrance to the bridge were rather two large men on either side – their faces stern and their bodies ready for combat at any moment. With a speck of hope glimmering within her eyes in belief that she had finally found an escape, Ellie began to increase her pace. Upon reaching the bridge, she was halted by the guards who examined her up and down, expecting to find something suspicious or pirate related. "You're not from around here, are you? What business do you have going into Entertainment East? You a pirate or something?" one guard asked with a rather intrusive tone. Ellie glared at him, tilted her head to the side and gave him an expression that said indirectly, 'are you serious?' "No, I'm not from around here. I'm looking for a way off the island and I'm hoping to find one in... Entertainment East, you called it? And no again, I am not a pirate. Don't associate me with that kind of filth," she retorted back in the same tone. If he had no intention of speaking to her with at least a decent amount of respect, then Ellie could easily return the favor. The guard glared at her. "Fine. You my pass," he commented before stepping towards the side. "And by the way, really? What's up with the rabbit ears, you trying to be a mascot or something?" he snarled rudely with his mouth producing snorting sounds. With a roll of her eyes as she walked forward, she left the guard with one last comment. "Personally, I don't think I possess the capability. But, with your looks and laughter, perhaps you could pass for a pig? I believe I saw a flier earlier looking for volunteers to help out in a barn earlier," she spoke before venturing off into the new district. Edited by Namine, Feb 7 2014, 01:34 AM.

Getting a bit lost in his own thoughts, Ryuu's pacing had slowed down a bit, something he did not really want but it happened anyway. Regaining his focus, he noticed he was about to run into a lighting pole. Sighing out of relief he sidestepped the pole, straight onto an old banana peel and crashed with his head against the pole, falling over completely. The chef could have sworn the peel wasn't there in the first place... Where the hell did it even come from? Sitting up straight he rubbed the sore spot on the side of his head and sighed deeply. At least the kitchen didn't catch fire again like it did last summer... Either one of the 9 times it burned down would work for this metaphor. Standing up, he figured he needed to step up his pace some more if he wanted to be on time for the concert. Kyo would probably stomp him if he was late now. Hurrying up in a jogged pace he arrived at a small open plaza with lots of stands. The place was near the docks and smelled heavily of fish considering the man fish stands. Ryuu didn't have a need for any major supplies like that today so he made haste to the spice man he wanted to see. Arriving at the stand he waved a hello as a strong aroma of spices already hit his nose. Standing next to man was an exercise in breathing. Turning to face the young chef, the man had a bit of short stature and could be called an old man considering his large grey beard and his lack of any actual hair on his head. Bald, short, somewhat of a crooked back and a wide smile he welcomed Ryuu: "Ah, Ryuu me boy, back for more I see?" he greeted the chef with a wave as well. Dressed in a pair of red coveralls and wearing a black shirt below them, he had a friendly, somewhat scary smile. Ryuu walked closer and examined some of the pots of spices on the table. "Nothing in particular, just checking if you got something new and interesting for me?" Ryuu replied as he took a step back. The man stroked his beard and and nodded in thought. "Oh I did get this new strange spice!" the man spoke as he reached for a pot somewhere behind him in crates. Searching for it, he ended up showing Ryuu a glass pot of sparkly pink powder and as he opened it, there was an extreme sweet scent to it. "My my... What is this particular aroma I'm sensing?" Ryuu spoke in amazement as the pot made hm a bit nauseous. "The sweetest spice in the world my boy. They call it Stardust, it's an extract from a very rare plant in this world mixed with every single sweet spice you can imagine. A marvel of chemistry!" the man praised it as he closed the lid and relieved Ryuu. The latter jsut sighed seeing as even a single grain of that powder would oversaturate any other flavour in the dish. "I believe I will pass on that for now... Maybe if I ever tried to make the world's sweetest dish but for now I don't have any flavour that can match that strong taste." The black haired man rejected the offer of Stardust in a polite way. Making his way back to his shop it seemed that his sister had already changed and his brother as well. "You're late, idiot..." Kyo remarked as Ryuu arrived at the shop empty handed. Ryo raised an eyebrow at his older brother: "No pruchase? You usually bring home some crazy experimental thing frm that crazy old geezer..." the young man remarked. Ryuu just sighed a bit at Kyo's remarked before turning to his brother: "Nothing to write home about this time, sadly. I'd only ruin dishes and alienate people with this particular spice he had for me today..." Ryuu spoke with a light smile and crossed his arms. His sister had some sort of light blue cotton cardigan with a nicely stitched in logo at the bottom. Annabelle's? Was this from the same artist she was going to see? Wow, Ryuu didn't think she had her own clothes line. It looked comfy to say the least. Still wearing her glasses from before, a plain black t-shirt underneath, a skirt that went to just above her knees, proper but still not long and she had a pair of light blue knee socks to match her cardigan. His brother just had a pair of plain jeans, some sneaks and a red fiore t-shirt. "Mother's at the shop, so I just need to close the business and take a-" the chef spoke, thinking out loud but was interrupted. Kyo, his younger sister had tugged him along and was rushing him to the bridge. Crossing over to East was also a decent walk so she was in no mood to wait. "We still have to wait in line there stupid! Let mom lock up! If you're taking me there then at least do it properly you jerk!" she scoffed at him as he was being dragged away. Giving pleading look to his brother, the latter nodded with a laugh: "I'll make it's done right and catch up, you to go along..." he spoke, kind of mocking Ryuu with that fatherly tone. Such troublesome siblings he had... Passing Mainstreet they arrived at the bridge with guards. There was no real trouble there outside of a few glares. One of the guards seemed to be particularly upset and murmuring about something but Ryuu didn't pay it much heed. Neon North folks were always stuck up about something when they were in South. His sister dragged him along the bridge in such a pace, you'd call them some sort of relay team. Except Ryuu was the stick. The short end of the stick. At least the sight of the open ocean was a nice view while he was being a stick... |

One would think that it would be rather embarassing for an 18 year old pop star in pink pajamas who was the queen of her ship for a lack of a better term to get dragged around the ship by a young, cute maid, but it actually wasn't that bad. I mean first of all, getting dragged around meant that Annie wouldn't have to walk everywhere, which was a rather tedious and tiring activity; you would think that someone of her stature and importance would not have to walk places, but noooo, she has to just like everyone else. So this was a well welcomed method of avoiding walking, and since it would have been rather hard for Azuki to lift her off the ground and carry her across the entire ship up several flights of stairs, even with the help of her two tag along hand maidens, this was the best realistic option that Annie could hope for. I mean it was a little bumpy going up the stairs, but it sure beat walking or using her cotton powers to fly; besides, all of these things would be obsolete when the ship's inventor finally finished the prototype for the floating chair. Of course, it would have probably been helpful if he hadn't quit the same time the chef did, but she was sure she could eventually find someone to replace him that was as proficient in levitation technology as he was. Or, even better, she might be able to find someone with a masters in Teleportation! And of course then there were the added bonuses that came along with being dragged across the floor, namely what would happen to her pajamas when getting dragged across the floor. You might think that would be a bad thing, but hear her out: this entire past week, she had been arguing with Azuki about whether or not the floors were truly clean or not whenever they went around dusting things up. Well if she got dust on her pajamas, she would have proof that the floors weren't really clean and Azuki wouldn't be able to argue against being forced to clean the entire ship again. And what's more, as punishment for going against her and trying to cover up her inadequate floor cleaning techniques, Annie could make her wash her entire wardrobe in fear of there also being unaccounted for dirt in the closet that would get all over her clothes! It was the perfect revenge, mwahahahaha!!!!..... Except that whenever she checked her butt, there was never any dirt. Pooey. And she was so certain that there would be spots unaccounted for, especially since it seems like Azuki was purposely dragged her around certain areas instead of taking the most direct route. But of course Azuki couldn't possibly have guessed what Annie was hoping to discover, so she was probably just being weird again. The other upside to getting dragged around was that since she wasn't being forced to walk, she could spend less time worrying about getting to point A to point B in the most efficient manner possible and more time observing her surroundings, and people were more eager to stop and talk to her since she didn't seem like she was in a rush, which was always nice. So as they made their way across the entire ship, Annie got to say hi to and even have short conversations with most of her staff, from the maids, to the medical staff, to the bartenders, to the crewmen, to the extremely intimidating looking guards.... Actually now that she thought about it, the only men left on this dang ship were a handful of male crew members and the guards. You know, it was really weird because when she bought the ship, the ration of men to women in the crew was about 70:30, and they all stuck around the next few days as Dani stayed to finish moving her stuff out and make sure Annie got the hang of running things around the place (with her manager's and Azuki's help, of course). But as soon as her friend was gone, it took only twenty four hours for the staff distribution to become 20:80 males to females. What was even weird was they all left for the same reason as the ship's cook and inventor: they though Annie didn't have a big enough bust to be worth working for (either that or they didn't like the idea of working for a sadistic slave driver); seriously, what was it with these people and statues? This of course forced Annie to reach out and hire people for the vacant spots, though she only found women to take their places. Heck, she even almost lost the rest of her male crew members, but luckily she decided that they might be more willing to stay around if she gave them a very small raise, along with all of the female staff members to be fair. Well she wasn't sure why such a raise was so effective, but suddenly everyone remaining was glad they hadn't left, and she started to get a few men willing to fill empty spots now too! She, of course, didn't understand what the big deal was since she still made a lot more zeros than they did, but maybe they just liked the idea of seeing a bunch of zeros on a weekly paycheck. Either way, it didn't really concern her; the point was she was able to keep at least a portion of her male staff. The problem was that there weren't any really cute guys to serve on her as butlers! What's more is that none of them were even her age, so she couldn't even try (and fail) to lower her standards! Stupid young and attractive guys caring so much about stupid statues or busts or whatever they called them.... Well anyways, they eventually made it all the way up into Annie's room and then, after that, into her closet. Once they got there, Azuki forced Annie upright into perfect posture in front of a mirror and began to quickly undress her, all the way down to her bare skin. It would usually be this point in the storyline that Blades would tease icy and the grader about the process, going to the point where it looks like he'd just have to cross the line but then suddenly move away from the line and leave the reader mildly disappointed, but sadly that would not happen this time around. Rest assured it's because Annie's too important to be trifled with such petty things such as fan service, and it's totally because her chest wasn't that big and there wasn't that much sex appeal, ok?!?!?!?!?!!? Ehem, anyways, they immediately began to dress up Annie as soon as they had stripped her down, dressing her up in her frilly white underwear and bra followed by a black skirt with teal edges, a light gray tank top with a bit of a collar (somehow) and a teal tie. To cap it off, they slipped on some black stockings and sleeves with teal borders and some nice, shin high black boots. They then dragged her off into the mirror where they spent the next fifteen minutes doing her slight make up and fixing her hair up, making sure they got the pigtails just right and the ribbons completely symmetrical and tied just right. Alas, Annie had finally gotten ready for the morning! "Now remember Miss Amagi," Azuki started, "The show starts at 3:00, so you have plenty of time to go look around town before you need to get to the concert area; Kirijo-sensei will, of course, accompany you along with a few of the guards to make sure you stay safe. And that the city does too..." Huh, that was odd; Annie could have just sworn she heard Azuki mutter something. "I'm sorry, Azuki-san, but what did you just say?" "Kirijo-sensai will, of course-" "No, after you said 'stay safe.'" "Nothing until you asked me to repeat myself, Miss Amagi." "But I-" "Don't fret, Miss Amagi. Just take a shower and get ready to head out." "Oh alright...." Annie started to make her way to the shower, slowly undressing as she.... wait a minute. "Why did I bother getting dressed if I just had to get undressed again?" Azuki just giggled in response at first. "I just like helping you get out of your clothes, Miss Amagi; it's nice practice~" "Huh...... I guess that makes sense." And she was right; it really did make sense. Yup, no hidden sexual innuendos that Annie was too naive to get lying around here.... |

"Did I perhaps walk into a different island by accident?" The dazed and confused archer stared out into the distance, attempting to figure out what was exactly happening on the island. She looked behind her and saw the grim atmosphere of the Savage South, then she looked forward again to see what appeared to be an enormous amusement park. Ellie squinted her eyes and perked her shoulders up; without breathing, she attempted to take the whole thing in but found herself rather... lost. "This is one awfully strange island," she commented to herself, releasing a sigh. "Maybe I'll find another group to travel with, or perhaps even find a boat of my own!" she spoke, her voice increasing in volume as her thoughts became more optimistic. Unsure of what to expect, she stepped forward into the district of lights, entertainment, and hopefully transportation. Ellie began to walk through the streets of the Entertainment District, passing by the various centers and stores of different activities. "Extreme Robot Fighting Center 3000.56!" a building sign exclaimed, while another said "Luigi Boat 7!" in bright neon, comical lights. A faint smile was slowly being painted onto the young archer's facade; she found herself amused at the happiness that was being exuded throughout the entire area, but, at the same time, it had also begun to bring her down. As Ellie passed by each family, she was reminded of how she was never able to experience such things due to her mother always being stationed in her room while her father had no time to waste with such festivities. 'I wonder if he actually cares enough to look for me...' she thought in a somber manner. Heaving a deep breath once again, she continued to explore the district. Left. Right. Left. Right. Within time, she had found herself in a rather peculiar predicament. Ellie had arrived at the district with the belief that there would be a station in which she would be able to find some way off the island, but the challenge had literally become the impossible. She turned every corner, walked along every major street and even peeked inside various shops only to rediscover that the Entertainment District stuck true to its name. 'Why is everything literally about entertainment here!?' she screamed internally, her fists slowly beginning to clench. Ellie would not let her frustration get to her though; surely, this would be a challenge she needed to learn to overcome. "Why do sea level islands have to be so unnecessarily complicated and aggravating!?" she grumbled as she gave the 'Entertainment District' sign her infamous death glare. Before the young archer was able to take another step, a small tap on her shoulder was suddenly felt. As Ellie turned around, she would be met with much surprise upon focusing on the sight before her. A large man of abnormally large stature stood before her, quite possibly even double the height of her. "U-Uh, is there something that I can help you with, sir?" she said, taking a singular step back. "Before you say anything, I must tell you that I am not a mascot of any sort. I don't even belong here!" she exclaimed, potentially afraid of the intentions he possibly held. There was a brief pause - Ellie glared into his stone cold blue eyes; he remained there, unwavered by her appearance. The brief pause would be filled with nothing but pure awkwardness. A few seconds later, it had suddenly broke. "Ha! Little girl, you've got nothing to be afraid of!" he exclaimed in a passionate voice. He raised his right arm in the air while his left palm was firmly pressed against his chest. As the tall man began to look at the sky, he opened his mouth to speak once again. "I mean no harm. My name is Heisman I am here to promote the one and only Annabelle Amagi concert happening today! You are aware of her, no?" he spoke dramatically, motioning his hands to form various gestures. "Er, I'm not too familiar with the name. I assume she's a popular game character of some sort?" Ellie inquired, relieving herself of her temporary fear. Overly tall people had always made her feel uncomfortable in one form or another. The man looked at her with a blank expression. The excitement and joy that was once radiating throughout his body had suddenly vanished into thin air, quite possibly to the point of nonexistence. "You don't know who Annabelle Amagi is...?" quietly said Heisman. A brief second of pause passed by. "Annabelle Amagi is the princess of pop music! Her voice soothes the soul and cleanses the impurities in everyone's souls, even the pirates! I hear her music is the official playlist of the heavens so that when everyone dies, they get to hear her still!" he suddenly exclaimed with passion. "Little girl, I am not sure what has happened in your life that was so tragic that you were unable to hear Annabelle but today will be the day when your life turns around! For I, Heisman, the vice president of the Annabelle Amagi Las Arcadas Branch Fan Club, also known as A.A.L.A.B.F.C, will cordially invite you to attend her free concert!" "No." "I mean, she sounds like a lovely girl. Personally, I am not a fan of pop music but if it is that important to you, then I suppose I will consider attending. But, I will only do so if you tell me something: is there a way off the island that's perfectly safe and wouldn't involve me associating with pirates?" inquired the young archer, who was still recovering from the burst of emotions thrown in her face. Heisman's eyes began to glow with a certain flavor of joy. Though Ellie's expression showed no sign of care, he was glad to hear about her attending. "Okay, after you attend the concert, head down to the docks in this district. There should be some merchant ships that have come by to drop off some Annabelle Amagi goods... ask if you can join along and tell them I sent you. Everything should go smoothly from there!" Ellie nodded her head in agreement. "Thank you." "Wait, before you go, come and try some of our sushi. Sushi good for you!" By the time those words were said, the young archer had ventured off into the district once again. |

Ah, Entertainment East... This used to be a fun hang-out spot for when Ryuu was a kid. Hell, some of the best times of his childhood were spent in this district. It had all the fun for the family and kids and was so close to home as well. However right now he wasn't experiencing a fun time. In fact from from that as his only companion in this very tiring endeavour he plunged himself into was his little sister who really didn't like him at all. Here he was surrounded by the awesome arcades he used to waste hours at, so tempted to actually go back to them and play them... But being unable to because he was lining up with Kyo for the concert hall. Located a bit more to eastern side, there was a large, open air performance area for all types of artists to use. Lined up around it were probably thousands of fans, waiting for Annabelle Amagi to arrive. Standing a good amount in front of most fans, only the true die-hards were ahead of them though that was still a good 100 people or so. Ryuu sighed as he had no real will to stand in line for hours. This was his first day off in a while too ad all those lights and sounds... Especially the roller-coaster, he really wanted in on that party. Ryuu sighed deeply again as he saw it go down in the horizon and the screams of young girls and mothers resonated across the themepark. "Stop complaining..." Kyo remarked as she crossed her arms and pouted a bit at his reaction. Ryuu just smiled and shook his head: "I didn't say anything~! You must be tired from all that school work..." He spoke in a bit of a dismissive tone. Kyo just shrugged and let out a sigh herself: "We both know you want to go play at the arcades and ride the attractions..." she spoke a bit upset. Ryuu could tell she more upset that he wasn't paying much attention to her. Thinking about it, the chef wasn't such a good older brother in the past now was he? She probably was already bracing herself for disappointment from him once again. It's not really a brotherly thing to let your little sister down huh? Ryuu took a quick look at the line in front of them. Even if they waited here, it would take forever to enter. There was something he could do to try and make it up to her... A bit out of line and his old master would have condemned him for this but still. Focussing his willpower he unleashed a pulse of it to overpower the wills of everyone who was in front of him. Dropping like flies, Ryuu casually made a bow to Kyo and smiled widely. "It seems our fellow fans have forfeitted their conciousness and in turn also their spot in the queue... After you milady Kurogami~!" the black haired chef spoke in his amused tone while his sister shook her head but also formed a smile. A really small and faint smile. "Well at least you're good for something..." she answered with his soft smirk and proceeded to walk across the row of now unconcious, rather fat men in their twenties and thirties. Kinda creepy how such an innocent young girl has such creeps for fans... At the very least Ryuu was able to win his sister back over for a bit. Today was about spending some quality time with his family members so he should focus on that. Considering he kind of ignored it all when he was their age... The past is in the past and Ryuu's delinquent days were over. from this point on he could focus on being an upstanding member of society and the best damn chef out there. However there was one issue with that dream. He needed to move on out of this island soon if he wanted improve that. His dream was to be the best chef in the world but how could he do that if he didn't broaden his horizon? The playground so far was just this island, how could he learn more about culinary arts if he was stuck in this kiddie pool. Of course, looking for silly things like the All Blue was a pipe dream at this point. Ryuu was close to being broke anyway and affording a ship on top of the bills he has already was far too much. A pipe dream as always... And so the two of them waited in line while time passed. The fated moment of the concert's start was soon to arrive. |

You know, for a popular singer who had achieved such high status and was practically treated like a goddess, had maids who helped her dress, and felt the need to complain that she wasn't being carried around everywhere, you would think that Annie would have also arranged it so that her maids would also bathe her so she wouldn't have to worry about doing it herself. And you would be completely right. But they couldn't all fit in the shower. So then she tried taking bathes since her bath was the size of a freaking pool. But then she realized that she didn't like the idea of a bunch of women seeing her naked (even though it was, for some reason, completely ok when they helped her get dressed) and touching her body all over (again, how the heck was this supposed to be different from being helped getting dressed up?). So that meant it was back to showers and cleaning herself, which was a rather disappointing conclusion. But maybe perhaps one day she would find someone who she would feel comfortable ordering them to bathe her...... haha, yeah right, and Dani would have a slumber party with her, get drunk, and try to steal her first kiss. Hahaha.......... actually that one probably was fairly accurate, even if Annie didn't know it..... Anyways, after thoroughly cleaning herself, once again skimming over any details just to irk the readers and totally not because she had a somewhat flat chest, she had Azuki and her fellow maids dress her up again, going through the exact same vague process as before. Though now that this was her second time getting dressed in the exact same fashion (Get it? Fashion?!?!?!?), Annie did notice certain things, including some excessive feeling that she personally felt was a waste of time, but Azuki was the expert here. After all, she had presumably done this same thing with Dani, and the very idea that Azuki and her maids would be doing any inappropriate touching on a modest girl like Dani was simply absurd. Anyways, now that she was completely dressed for the day ahead, Annie began to make her way out of the bathroom and through her massive bedroom, picking up her charm bracelet and Dr. Fluer Beats on the way. Did anyone even call Dani Dr. Fluer anyways? Sounded to her like a just a failed attempt to make a canon equivalent of Dr. Dre for the sole purpose of her Beats product line, but whatever. Wasn't her place to question the powers that lied beyond the fourth wall. Yet. Ignoring the constant green glowing of her bracelet every time she got near stairs, as if some omnipotent force was trying to warn her about stairs, bro, Annie made her way throughout the inntire ship and eventually found herself on the deck. There waiting for her was a team of four very intimidating bodyguards (though she knew they were secretly soft teddy bears on the inside....... she hoped) and her manager, Kirijo-senpai. A young man of 25, he was rather tall and his radiant solid red hair just screamed "hot head." Of course he wasn't hot headed at all and was really sweet, but he was still a complete party pooper; I mean why the hell couldn't she send fireworks flying at other people and have then dodge as part of some fun game?!? "Now Annabelle," her manager began, already upsetting her just with two words."I told you to call me Annie!" Annie protested, though to no avail. "Now Annabelle, we have some time to burn before the concert, but I still personally advise we head straight to the concert area so we keep the cit- I mean you out of danger." "But-" "No buts. What would we do if some ruffian tried to mug you while we were out in the streets, or if you slipped through the restraints while riding the roller coa-" Wait, what?!? "THEY HAVE ROLLER COASTERS HERE?!?!?" Annie exclaimed at the top of her lungs, and her manager immediately knew he made a mistake. "No, you misheard me, I said-wait, where are you going, Annabelle?!?!?!?" Her manager immediately began to run after Annie, who had decided to start sprinting at full speed towards the park, leaving him and the guards in the dust. And so time passed as the guards and her manager eventually caught up to Annie and acquiesced to her request and began having fun riding roller coasters and what not. Normally you wouldn't find many people complaining about having fun, but then again, Jacob Kirijo wasn't exactly your average Joe. For instance, he had the nerve of trying to convince Annie that not everyone who lived on the planet was there to serve her. Just who in the hell did he think she was?!?!? Ahem, anyways, despite all of their merry times, she eventually had to make her way to the concert area and prepare for the show. And as much as I would love to go into extreme details about preparing for such a performance, I really don't want to, and I could care less if that was a contradiction! 2:50 PM |

The mindless wandering of the archer landed her in a rather peculiar situation. With a metal bar firmly pressed against her abdomen and a seat to support her, Ellie sat upon a Ferris Wheel with a quaint calmness, her body relaxed and comforted by the cushion beneath her. "Ah, so this is what Las Arcadas is about," commented the archer in a soft tone; with an overview of the island and the surface below her, Ellie was able to see how the island was separated into three different districts that were all connected on an enormous platform. While the Savage South district and the Entertainment East district were open to the public, there lied one that had caught her attention—the mysterious and intriguing Neon North. Though, as curious as she was to set out to explore it, Ellie constantly reminded herself to not get involved with any form of trouble as she desperately desired to flee the mortifying nature of grossness that lurked within every corner of the island. It was soon then that the Ferris Wheel had come to a halt. Frozen in mid-air, the young archer had assumed that she would be stuck there for a little while, so she resorted to one of her favourite past times as a last resort option. Pulling out a small miniature book and pen from her bag and placing it upon the metal bar gently, she began to... doodle! Inspired by Mr. Fae and other assorted adorable creatures roaming around in her mind, she began to illustrate (though not very well) various drawings in her notebook of all things cute. While her natural persona was one of grave seriousness and calmness, the young archer found it relaxing and a great way to pass by the time to dwell into the art of doodle drawings. For two whole rotations of the Ferris Wheel, Ellie was found constantly swiping the pen across the pages of the journal; there was even a time when the ride attendant had asked her to step off but she refused to and instead gave them the death glare. Of course, they would have no other option other than to comply. Within time, the archer would soon step off the ride and head back into the district to further waste some more time. "Uguguguguu~" snickered the young woman as she walked through the crowd of people while staring flipping through the pages of her journal. While it was completely unlike her, Ellie was found smiling and giggling to herself at the various drawings she had created in her own spare time. But, the moment she had caught herself committing such a heinous crime, she stopped for a brief moment and looked around—luckily, no one had caught sight of her performing such an act. "Darn, it must be the effects of the Entertainment East getting to me," she mumbled to herself with a small grunt towards the end. Releasing a small sigh, she continued forward, opening her doodle journal one last time before putting it away into her bag. Unfortunately, that very action would cause what would be the equivalent to a heart attack, but on a spiritual level. "Ah, sorry about that. That was partially a bit foolish of me to not be aware of my own surroundings," apologized the young archer, crouching down to pick up her book. As she raised her body upwards, she had caught sight of a rather adorable young girl, one whose hair radiated with a beautiful blue. Her overall appearance and facade was reminiscent somehow but she remained unable to determine her actual character. Nevertheless, Ellie continued onwards, dealing with her own usual business. ————— sometime in the future ————— Over the next couple of hours, the young archer would allocate her time in various areas of the district. While she had not participated in any of the grand rides, she found pleasure and entertainment through the gestures of finding her own space to enjoy some cotton candy, a refreshing beverage and the continuation of her doodle adventures. She hid herself in an area that remained invisible to the public eye, which generally included in the secluded corners where there was enough space for a table of one. "Uguu~" she giggled to herself as one drawing of Mr. Fae in a chef's costume made her glow with excitement. After a certain amount of time, Ellie found herself staring at the clock to only realize that she had not spent enough time as she had expected to. With a fuel of creative juice that seemed to just have depleted itself after a while, she figured she would resort to her last option (this time, it's for real), which would be to attend the free Annabelle Amagi concert. Luckily, Ellie was able to find a comfortable position in the midst of the crowd filled with die-hard fans. Located near the central area around the front, the young archer would soon realize that she was surrounded by Annabelle maniacs who seemed to desire to obey her every command if they had ever gotten the opportunity. The thought of it caused her to cringe. "I sincerely hope she's as good as everyone seems to think," she commented to herself. With a few minutes before starting time, Ellie had remained still. |

Honestly you'd expect that being second in line would get Ryuu a good seat. Of course because it was Kurogami Kiryuu, there was no other way for things to turn out for him. Kyo naturally got a seat as close as possible to her beloved idol but Ryuu was seated way in the back, so far from the stage that Kyo's seat was but a speck in the distance. Even worse was the fact that his seat wasn't an actual seat. It was below some seats even, just below the stands, Ryuu felt like a prisoner in this cage. As if the universe was doing some sort of half hearted attempt to mess him up again. Back at the ticket stand, Kyo instantly got a front row ticket but then when Ryuu's turn came up, all the other tickets were suddenly gone and he needed a proper number for his seating and whatnot. The black haired chef wanted to wait for a bit to get a proper ticket but according to the lady behind the counter he was just stalling the rest of the line. The non-existant line of people who lied there unconsciously. This time Ryuu just didn't want to argue it. Not like anyone would trade spots with him here anyway, they'd have to be complete idiots. That and the fact that Kyo was probably better off without him anywhere near her to possibly ruin the experience with a wrong look or remark. Eventhough he was a bit of joker at times, this was her moment and Ryuu didn't plan on ruining anything for her during the concert. Regardless, he was enough trouble on her when he was her age. Rebelling against his father, ignoring the twins while they had it rough being moulded into the new successors of the Kurogami family business. Kyo probably had it the roughest being a girl. And meanwhile he was dying his hair and running around with gangs. Minkao handled Kyo really well and after her death, his sister hasn't been the same. He hasn't been the same either but it was like she had an older sister who suddenly died because her older brother was mixed up in gangs and whatnot. Trying to pull him out of there, she got caught in the process. Truth be told, even Ryuu blamed himself for that. If he wasn't so hellbent on fighting back and trying to find a worthy existence and focus on what he already had, he might have been able to save her. Hell, not get her involved in the first place... She would have been alive today. Kyo probably never forgave him for that. She lost a very good friend that day too yet her brother somehow lived with 25 stab wounds in his body. From that day on, she treated him colder and colder. Given it was worse back then and has somewhat turned around nowadays but even so, she never forgave him for his lifestyle choices back then. And for that reason he was fine with completely awkward seating. He needed to somehow ease the relations between them. Perhaps he also needed to look into hiring part-time workers... Even though his mother insisted it was good for them to work in his shop, he figured that he was just burdening them by bugging them with this. Regardless, the concert seemed to be starting soon as the crowd's voices were getting a bit too much to be called a silent talking. Ryuu didn't check the hour really but judging by the enthusiasm of the crowd, Annabelle Amagi was up soon. Ryuu could probably barely pick up anything from the concert anyway so he sighed deeply and rested his elbows on his knees and his head on his hands. This would be a waste of time likely. Kyo on the other hand seemed very excited about the performance. Leaning in as close as possible to stage, her face was beaming to see the young girl with the long blue hair. If Ryuu could only see her now, this type of happy face is something he hadn't seen in year from her... |

As the clock clicked down to 3:00, the lights in the are surrounding the stage and the general concert area began to dim down until everything went black. Nothing had even happened yet, really, yet the crowd was already starting to yell at the top of their lungs in ecstatic joy at what was about to transpire. Though she was not a big name idol such as Starzune or Danielle LaFleur, Annabelle Amagi was starting to make a big name for herself in the world, and that in itself made her feel a little nervous. The young girl took several deep breathes as she prepared to get on stage after her introduction was finished. "Ladies and gentlemen....." the voice boomed across the speakers, even further amplifying the screams of the crowd. To be honest, you really couldn't blame them given that the guy sounded exactly like world acclaimed actor Logan Freemen, but they were still over reacting just a little bit. "Las Arcadas proudly presents....." This was it. No take backsies. All or nothing, Annie. All or a whole lotta nothing. ".....Annabelle Amagi!" The crowd started screaming at volumes that would make most men go deaf. But of course this was shonen world so even the normal people found themselves oddly uneffected by the screaming, though perhaps those individuals that were not joining in (coughotherPCscough) would find it very, very irritating. Annie made her way across the stage in silence and darkness, taking her place in front of the microphone at center stage. Once she arrived there, her band began playing, still in the darkness of the stage. When the guitar part picked up, spotlights shone down on each band member and, of course, the one and only Annabelle Amagi. Her face was hidden by the shadows, but her outfit could clearly be seen. And pretty soon the lights turned on back to full, and the young lady began to belt out her amazing voice in a beautifully melodic fashion. Editor's Note I've dressed myself beautifully today So please, let me stay dry As I gaze up, please don't rain on me what an unexpected rainy evening this is I feel cold. I hate water Please wipe me dry, with your hands But just why are you not here When I need you the most? I need love, and to stay by you, on your lap I, my, me, mine. I aim straight ahead For "you", my sunshine Yes, I am a moody lady Yet, you are still nowhere to be found Tears? No, I say these are raindrops. This freezing weather's monochrome makes me feel lonely So quickly find me, open your umbrella, and say "I'm sorry" As the sunny weather turns rainy, I take shelter under a roof, where a flower has bloomed This all seems like a dream, lalala That boy always has his ears folded And can never hear my complains Please, lend me your ears just this time And don't scold me, my nagging darling I don't like your angry face I don't like your smiling face, either You're not quite my type to begin with But please love me You need friendship. It's important to feel that way You live for me. I aim straight for your heart Being honest and frank is a form of selfishness Please, since I'm a lady loved by you Forgive me, as I honestly didn't do anything wrong The one not to your liking is yours truly here With an identity mixed with tenderness and fuss I can't bring myself to say it, so don't expect a "sorry" from me If you already have "that" in your heart Then even when I don't express love or affection in words You should still understand, right If there's delicious food, I'll let you live with me If there're funny TV programs, I'll let you watch with me If there's a warm bed, I'll let you sleep with me Besides all that, what else do you need? I'll gladly ask I want to play the spoiled child from time to time Please take me in, a lady of yearning Yet, you still don't understand my feelings I guess any love will eventually cool down Maybe this is goodbye then, with my eyes teary? But as the door is opened, there you are saying to me, "Another rainy Day, huh?" If the rain is not stopping Then I wish to take shelter with you under the same roof Forever and ever, lalala... I say meow! Right by your side I say meow! In your arms I say meow! Why am I still Unable to utter even your name right? Annabelle of course did a whole song routine including dance and what not to this song, but I don't deem it important enough to go into full detail about exactly what she did. The point was it was clean (of course) and the crowd absolutely loved it, eating up every second of it like their grandma's world famous blueberry pie. You know, with the honey coated crust? So delicious...... Where were we? Oh right, the concert. Anyways, when Annie finished singing and the band hit the last note on their respective instruments, the crowd began to scream even louder than they ever had before (which was incredibly loud), and this was coming from the same people who had been screaming all throughout the entire performance. Jeez, you would have figured they were getting tortured or something...... Don't make any jokes about that. Anyways, this wasn't going to be a drawn out stoppage of performance; that could wait for later. For now, it was time for the next number: Next to you, my troubled thoughts Are a clock pendulum swinging at the local minimum I place the embarrassing vocabulary vertically side-by-side Where I began the next puzzle Love drawn with complicated formulas The machines called people run with their feelings What do you mean, what do you mean What do you like? What do you mean, what do you mean It's not something like that You don't feel anything from touching shoulders? Each time it happens, your components accumulate Soon my hand will reach you, but I can't do it Even our friendship looks like it will be destroyed Love poems and revolving puppet sheep Solve the problem of like and dislike What do you mean, what do you mean Why do you like? What do you mean, what do you mean It's not in that sense What do you mean, what do you mean What are your tastes? What do you mean, what do you mean I'm reaching you? Without relying on numbers, things would become boring Unexpectedly, our eyes meet and I hide my sigh And so the machines called people run with their feelings, huh? What do you mean, what do you mean What do you like? What do you mean, what do you mean It's not something like that What do you mean, what do you mean Who do you like? What do you mean, what do you mean Tell me everything What do you mean, what do you mean Your smile What do you mean, what do you mean It turns me into a co-occurrence And yet another stunning performance by the wonderful Annabelle Amagi. The audience was captivated by every undescribed dance step, and their heads were filled with the sweet melody of the lyrics. The audience was screaming just as loudly as before and those who had not already fallen in love with the pop star had been swept off their feet. Well, all of the non important NPCs in the crowd, I mean. Kind of can't do that thing to people who actually matter just for singing a few songs with no techniques or proper reasoning to back it up. Anyways, as the backstage crew and the band did some rearranging and some fix ups along with other things that still don't need to be described, the Amazing Annie began to speak up, this time actually talking rather than singing but still keeping a sweet tune to her voice. "Hey everybody, I hope you're enjoying the concert so far!!!" she said as she raised her hands out and forwards, waving to everyone which, accompanied with her comment, made them go wild. Or, you know, wild in comparison to the level of wildness they had already reached. "Now for this next song, I have a little dance that goes along with it, but I'm not too confident in my dancing abilities..." This of course spurned reactions from audience members such as, "Don't say that Annie; you're a great dancer!" or. "Oh my God, she's modest and adorable!", and even the occasional, "I love you, Annie!" or, "I want to have your adorable blue haired children!" The responses varied wide and far, though of course the young girl couldn't decipher any individual Ok, that did it. All of that screaming you had just heard up to this point? It was now like whispering compared to the uproar just caused. I hope you brought the ear plugs, because while your ears might not be bleeding or getting damaged in anyway, they probably feel like it. "Now who should be our lucky winner....." Annie said into the mic as she started to step towards the crowd and survey it. Her manager said she could pick whoever she wanted to, but to make sure it was a popular choice and not some weird chef guy with terrible luck that would start terrible media stories about some unknown fake love affair. Sigh, if only she could find an adorable young girl who's dream it was to dance on stage with her. But where would such a person be...... |

It was minutes after the archer had arrived at her spot that the audience began to expand by a tenfold with each passing second. But, while it grew, the spaces in between each person began to decrease, leaving Ellie to feel a little... annoyed with the amount of breathing room. Plus, it was quite unimaginable to be surrounded by those who, to say at the very least, didn't quite take care of themselves hygienically. All in the meanwhile, the working crew members of the concert were swiftly moving across the stage, positioning props and other various items in place; the rising tension within the atmosphere continued to grow. When the clock struck three, the lights began to move and the audience's screams blasted through the air, sending a crippling chill down the woman's spine. "And so it begins..." she mumbled to herself, though her sounds would be muffled out by the fans. "I suppose it's time to find out what that pop star advocate was raving about." Soon enough, the highly praised Annabelle would arrive on stage and the music would began to play after a short introduction. The audience, with its blaring screams radiated throughout the entire district. But while everyone was cheering with excitement and joy that the so called 'angel who probably tripped and accidentally fell down from heaven,' Ellie simply remained motionless. Her eyes and body had remained as static as ever, minus the small pushes here and there from the people around her. Her face was expressionless — it was practically a blank slate. The young woman was not amused nor was she impressed by the performance being given. It was not to say that she hated it nor disliked it; it was more of the music and the style not being her style. If anything, Ellie did appreciate the visual story being told throughout the lyrics, though at some parts she found her self questioning some of the 'deeper meanings' behind them. The second number would then arrive, sending Annabelle's fans into a ballistic state of endless hollering. 'I don't think it was a very good idea to c—' she thought before even the words of her own mind were blocked out by the endless cheering. It was safe to say that while Ellie was wise, she made a very poor decision in choosing her spot in the audience. 'I wonder if I can ask them to turn down the volume, that seems like the most appropriate course of action to take...' she continued... after repeating that same line three times before being able to hear it. But, it was then after that she realized, 'Maybe not.' Of course, the stationary woman would not go unnoticed in a crowd filled with hardcore fans; the people around her and someone behind her yelled at the bunny eared woman, though they would all be met with the same expression: the infamous death glare. Thankfully, at least for Ellie, the second performance soon came to an end. She let out a deep breath, finally being given a chance to breathe as the sounds of cheering had begun to fade. 'The perfect opportunity. Here's my chance to leave,' she thought, proceeding to take a single step. But, unexpectedly, the audience around her had created a literal unmovable wall Fans were a strange phenomenon that Ellie hoped to never come across ever again. But, the main purpose of her halting her performance was to invite a surprise guest. The lights began to dim and a single spotlight was being shot at the crowd, moving at intense speeds. A drum roll was being played in the background, increasing the tension of the audience. Within seconds, the surprise feature had found its target — and it was directly shot at Ellie herself. People gasped. They all glared at the woman with brimming hatred and jealousy, though the young woman didn't seem to show much care. In fact, she was becoming more irritated at the whole concept of a pop concert performance. Staring directly at the stage, she began to speak. "If you dare point that light at me a second longer lighting person, I will personally find you and place you upon a prize wheel and spin you against the wall while I perform target practice at your moving head," she threatened in the most calm of voices. The audience gasped once again, and this time... it was more dramatic than the time Annabelle Amagi tripped on the red carpet and it became the headline of Rolling Seastones for a good week. "Uhm. I mean, I'm not too great with dancing... perhaps you could choose someone else? I'll be a good Samaritan today and give someone else the opportunity," she said, this time with a little bit of forceful cuteness. And with that, the drum roll began again and the lighting person, who was most likely quivering from fear, started to move the light again. lol

And so the show began! Except that Ryuu had literally no show to enjoy at all. He couldn't see Annabelle dancing due to his incredibly impossible seating, he couldn't hear a thing due to the crowd and the distance between them as well as the creaking stand some really chubby fans had taken their claim on. Overall, the only thing he could hear was fans cheering on the melody of her music and the only thing he could see was a light blue blur between 2 fat guys in some kind of extreme fan get-up. The chef could feel his mental stability slipping in this spot. "That's it I'm out of here..." he thought to himself as he got up, his left eye twitching slightly from all the commotion around him. Sometimes this bad luck was really getting to him. While he did have nerves of steel, this was just... Inhuman. People could joke what they wanted about human rights but this was worse than Impel Down. Making his way out of the crowd during the first song, Ryuu bumped into a group of about 4 pretty damn hardcore fans who just wouldn't budge. It was an accident but it didn't stop them from pushing Ryuu back: "Hey, what the hell are you doing, leaving in the middle of Amagi Oujo-sama's first song!! Do you not have a single grain of manhood!" one of them shouted at Ryuu, over the sound of the music. Dusting himself off a bit as he fell over from the shove, Ryuu was in no mood for this. His usual smile still up he walked over to them and implored to the fans: "Please gentlemen, I have simply the worst of seats and it's getting a little too busy for me to-" the black haired chef pleaded to them but was pushed back to the ground as the men started laughing like some high school bullies. Every fanbase of an innocent young girl had rotten apples to spoil the bunch... His eyes, shifting to a malicious look, Ryuu laughed a little himself, only slightly, barely noticeable over the music and their own. Shaking off the dust Ryuu simply gave the group a look as a small pulse of his ambition could felt by them. The men were mesmerised. Walking over to one of them, Ryuu put his shoulder around the man as he walked towards the exit, the rest following. "Feels great to bully people doesn't it? It gives your own hollow, empty and pointless existence just that little spark you need to break the drag. The drag of a life, straight through the dirt you crawled out of, little maggots that you guys are... Did your mother not love enough? Did your daddy never give you a pad on the shoulder?" Ryuu spoke to the man as he stared out in front of him in shock. The chef however was still smiling as usual. "... Next time you feel like picking on someone in a bad mood, I suggest it being no one. Because no one deserves to feel less than the atomically tiny little asshole of a man that you are. If I were a few years younger..." Ryuu continued as they arrived near the edge of the crowd and he let go of the man. Walking forward, he turned around to face him, swiping past his neck with his thumb as a sign of decapitation. "... Your life would already be... Over~! Kukukukuku~!" laughing them off as they fell over flat on their faces, no one seemed to bat an eye. Too distracted with the young girl dancing and singing, Ryuu actually got a good sight of her here. Huh, she was pretty cute and her voice was pretty sweet sounding too. Her choreography was also quite alright now that he could actually see it. Putting his hands in his pockets, Ryuu kept walking out of the open air concert hall. Quickly finding refuge in a wide hallway that led back outside, the chef pulled out his special cigarette case. For whatever reason, he never needed to buy new cigarettes with this case. Each time he ran out, some demon came to refill it. No joke, this thing is probably cursed and Ryuu was afraid as all hell to treat it badly. The flip side was some of the best menthol cooling ever. Lighting one up, Ryuu watched the concert for the hallway. He still had a terrible view of it and the acoustics were far from perfect either but it was still better than his original spot. With the second song, Ryuu closed his eyes and just listened as he leaned against the wall. It wasn't his preferred style of music but there was a certain talent to the young popstar and she certainly knew how to sway a crowd and that was something that Ryuu could respect. As the spotlight was sent around the crowd and stopped on... A young woman, maybe a girl even, with pink hair and bunny ears, Ryuu could not help but wonder what was up with bunny ears. Was she cosplaying or something? He couldn't quite understand what she said but it didn't sound very friendly to the man operating the spotlight. Oh well, not his problem, people can do whatever they want with their looks he supposed. Ryuu simply took another deep breath from his cigarette and waited for the spotlight to end it's movements. And of course, the luck in his family must have landed with the twins entirely. Stopping on Kyo, the young girl seemingly lost all of her marbles. Being guided to the stage, she was blushing heavily next to Annie. The two of them were nearly the same in length and body build even. "I-I-I-I can't believe I'm on s-s-s-stage with you A-A-A-Amagi-ss-sss-sensei... the girl spoke with a face as red as a tomato, hiding it with her hands. Ryuu smiled a bit as he saw his little sister up on stage. It was nice for her that she got to have a great day already but this was just icing on the cake wasn't it? Shaking his head a bit as he took the cigarette between his fingers and let his arms rest on his knees. Kyo probably knew all the dances and songs of her idol considering she talked for 15 minutes straight before they got to their seats about her. The black haired chef was pleased her day was made. Another step towards being a better brother and better human being well made. However over the sound of the next song which was inevitably starting soon, Ryuu could hear the sound of tumbling trash cans. Turning his head to the source of it all, there was a group of 3 men in ragged clothing, he couldn't quite make out what their deal was but it seems one of them had fallen off somewhere and the other two were lecturing him. Leaning his head back against the wall and closing his eyes, Ryuu put the cigarette back in his mouth. "Heh... Pretty funny how it all turned out huh? Me, sitting in some hallway smoking, waiting for my little sister to have fun. I wonder what you would be doing if you survived..." The swordsman spoke to himself in a soft, silent tone, not quite like a mumble but something close to it. Technique and OOC

Alright, she had waited long enough: it was finally time to choose. The spot light would land wherever she pointed it, but Kirijo-senpai said to not wait for too long or people would start to get restless. So she really had to find someone to select real fast, but who on Earth would she- wait, she saw her! Oh my God, she finally found her: the perfect girl to join her on stage! She was young, cute, and no doubt it was her dream to be on the stage of a pop star, which would not only appeal to the fanbase as a whole, but also make Annie feel very warm and fuzzy inside herself. "Alright guys, I've finally decided. The person to join me on stage is....... you!" She pointed straight at her target and the stop light suddenly stopped..... on the wrong person. Annie was pointing at a young girl in the front row and the spotlight was shining at someone nowhere near the lady. People gasped as they saw the girl in the spot light, some pink haired lady with bunny ears, but then were extremely confused when they noticed Annie wasn't looking or pointing at that person. "Umm.... I guess we're having technical difficulties?" No later than after she said that the light started to blink a few times and then went out. Luckily, another spot light came to life almost immediately and another drum roll started, prompting Annie to point again. "Sorry about that guys. But without further ado, my lucky helper is...... you!" This time when she pointed at the young girl, the stoplight stopped in the proper place. The girl looked extremely surprised and a bit flustered, but there was no doubt about it: Annabelle Amagi was pointing right at her. One of the guards in the crowd proceeded to escort her onto the stage, which wasn't that long of a walk thankfully for the young girl, considering there were probably several people who were now slightly hostile towards the lucky girl. But the girl herself just seemed very happy to get to be chosen, even remarking how she couldn't believe that she was on stage with Annabelle. "Aww, you don't need to call me sensei; just Annie's fine!" This of course prompted a roaring applause and screaming from the audience. People began to shout stuff again, such as, "She's so modest and down to earth!" or, "That girl's so lucky to be able to go on a first name basis with Amagi-san!!!" as well as, "Are you two up for a threesome later?!?!?" One of the assistants then came up with with a microphone and held it out in front of the young girl so she could speak into it. "Alright then, do you mind telling everyone your name?" "K-Kyo K-Kurogami." "Kyo: that's a cute name! So tell me Kyo, are you feeling up to dancing to this next song with me?" The young girl was so excited that she couldn't even say anything, or at least chose not to, and instead just nodded her head very eagerly. "Hehe, alrighty then! Like I said, I'm not sure about my moves on this one, but it's still a rather simple dance; hopefully you can catch on quickly and help me and anyone else in the audience who wants to dance along!" And with that, the assistant with the microphone vanished almost as quickly as he arrived and the song began. The strobe lights are glimmering The LED is throbbing Let's run, take my hand, Even if we'll stumble a little, It will always stay in my mind, The image of those colorful, playful lines. The hands of time will continue ticking Until they diminish 'Round and round, they go Surrounding the boring days that pass. Let's dream again today For lively, colorful music To fill the vastness of space. I don't want to let go of this wounderful feeling So come on, let's raise our hands up! Reach for the opposite end of the prism. I can't wait! Weekender Girl Weekender Girl No matter how much we stare at it, The pages of the calendar won't move by themselves. Leaking from my headphones and onto my fingertips A racing beat starts It's some what a habit, For each and everyday, there's something new to love. That light feeling in our body As if we're free and light as air. Let's dream again today For this lively colorful twittering To echo into the vastness of space. I don't want to let go of this wounderful feeling So come on, let's raise our hands up! Reach towards the opposite end of the prism, I can't wait! Weekender Girl Weekender Girl Weekender Girl |

The concept of fandoms was like a myth to the young woman — it was something that was seemingly pulled out of a novel of great war and strife. To Ellie, fans were the equivalent of soldiers in a war, willingly sacrificing their lives for their leader and their country; or, in this case, Annie and her music. She watched the crowd grow with anticipation, their hearts beating in unison as the next candidate for the performance was being chosen. And, within time, they were chosen — a young girl was randomly selected from the crowd and walked upon the stage. Not much of a surprise to Ellie anymore, the crowd roared and howled like hyenas with some being of the lustful taste. The archer stood still and looked at the audience around her with a look of slight disgust. In addition to their undying love, they also seemed to possess a certain... undying smell to them as well. It was the accumulation of poor hygiene and sweat at work. "Tch. How putrid," she said, wanting to leave the crowd. Eventually, the song and dance began to surge throughout the plaza, sending everyone into a hysterical hype. Not wanting to deal with the horrors of the concert any longer, Ellie had finally decided once and for all that she would no longer stay in such a predicament. Muttering her strength, she began to make her way through the crowd, poking herself into every opening and every leeway she could find. When she had reached the outskirts of the area, she dropped down to her knees and let out a huge sigh of relief. "Finally!" she exclaimed, her voice quaking with happiness. She paused for a moment to catch her breath. "I guess all that's left to do is to simply wait for the ship to arrive," she thought to herself. The young woman stood up from the grass beneath her, brushing off all the dirt that seemed to have collected in such a short amount of time. She then looked towards the west and headed straight towards it. But, it would seem as though misfortune had continued to stalk her. Within the distance, she could see a trail of flames running down the street. All around a single person was a swarm of people — pirates, perhaps. They were all seemingly carrying around a plethora of various weapons of swords, maces, flails and Molotov cocktails. Yet, for some odd reason, the rage induced crowd seemed to possess a sense of familiarity... could it be!? Immediately, Ellie ran forward, locking her eyes onto the sight in front of her. "Magus," she muttered under her breath. And with that, the small resident star within her eye began grew larger, becoming a prominent element within her iris. Her ability to see further into the distance was heightened, allowing her gather greater details. "Odd. I could have sworn they were gone," she commented, her heart garnering worry. The audience for Annabelle's performances seemed to have gone unnoticed. Was the power of music that effective that it lulled everyone into a state of trance? Regardless, as much as Ellie had grown irritated with the status of pop music and its followers, she would have hated to see them harmed. Within moments, the young archer had arrived at the scene, standing in front of various pirates. "Halt!" she yelled, pushing her arms outwards to the sides. "What is the meaning of this? Were you guys not on that burning ship a while ago?" she continued, her eyes gleaming with determination. The captain of the crew, whom Ellie thought out to be a gentle giant was no more than a blood lusted, infuriating man of abnormally tall stature. He scoffed. The captain stopped his crew from moving forward and looked at Ellie with squinted eyes. Step by step he would move in closer... putting Ellie at a state of uneasiness. "Edmund... why are you looking at me like that..." And step by step, she moved back, fearful of the dangers that would soon befall upon her. "Well, look at who we have here. Isn't it little Ellie?" he began, his voice brimming with a demonic playfulness. "Say, Ellie. Would you care to join us in this parade of ours? Our ship was burned but we managed to escape and come back... and this time, we're burning the whole island down. Whaddya say?" he smirked. His darkening brown hair and camel colored skin, rich with hairs that were covered by a plain tunic, an oversized jacket, and jeans to match. It was the complete opposite of the clothing he had worn in past times. But, his intimidating look would only put Ellie at further uneasiness. He continued to walk slowly, his arms beginning to reach out to her as if he were about to grab her. "After that you can continue to navigate for us. We're always in need of one if we're going to find some treasure... or 'go on an adventure,' as you would call it." "Absolutely not," the young archer spoke calmly. "To think I was fooled by the likes of you. You stole from innocent people and were punished for it; do you not realize how stupid you are? You think that you were entitled to those items and now that they were taken away from you, you suddenly gain the right to wreak destruction? Ha! You've got to be kidding me," she said, increasing her speed as she walked backwards. She placed one hand behind her back and held onto her bow. "As if I would ever participate in such things. I'd rather watch the concert with an awful audience than navigate for you." And with that, Ellie turned around and began to flee, hoping to find authorities of some sort to help her. She dashed down the street, yelling out from side to said of how everyone was about to be in danger. People began to move and their attention was caught. Even members of the concert audience noticed. Soon, everyone would be thrown into a state of panic. But, misfortune never seemed to have left Ellie's side. In a mere moment, she would be grabbed by the overgrown man, squeezing her sides as if she were a toy. There wasn't much she could do now. Techniques Used ooc
