Today was another day at Phoenix Wonderland, an amusement park owned by some rich people in Shibuya, everyday being the same old same old.
You weren't tired of it though. It was fun because you got to experience the livelihood you never got to as a child. Making people smile and laugh, feeling the over rushing joy of making happy.
You were already walking to the park, showing your permission pass to the staff and security at the side where you usually enter, meeting up with your troupe at the Polaroid Skies stage.
"Hey guys. You all seem.. dull today. What's going on?" Speaking up to break the awkward silence of your troupe, them being so into thought.
"Kayo overheard one of Lady Otori's brothers hosting another Show Contest. You already know who's going." Huyata rubbing his temples in stress while sighing.
"You know I can't stay still whenever there's a new one, Kai! I need to make sure perfecting out skills in what we do here out-stands everyone else, especially you know who." Miori stomped her foot, knowing exactly who she was talking about.
Tsukasa Tenma and Miori aren't exactly on good terms ever since that one time she declared she was the 'greatest' leader in another show contest the park hosted and have been super competitive ever since then. So I guess that made Polaroid Skies and the WonderlandxShowtime rivals.
Me, Yuta and Kayo never found it serious or anything. We just found it funny that Miori is like this around us.
"Chop chop guys! We need to think of a fabulous idea for us to pull off to beat Wonder Stage!!" Miori clasped her hands excitedly but the same competitive tone as ever, which led me and Yuta to groan annoyingly.
"Mio-san, is it really that important to beat WonderxShowtime or are we still sticking to our usual prompt?.." I murmured loud enough for her to hear, Miori giving me the same little snappy look she always does whenever I offend her 'dreams'.
"Ah-?! Excuse me! That's the whoollleee point...plus beating Wondershowtime." She gave a quick smirk, letting out a mischievous giggle as she placed her hand on her hip.
Rolling our eyes in response, Kayo came last as we told her we would participate in the contest and that she'd have to help with more costumes this or that.
She happily agreed and had no problem already searching up ideas on what to take inspiration off of. Meanwhile, Huyata, Miori and I all had to think of an idea to pull most of the audiences dazzling gaze onto us, or how Miori worded it mostly.
"I think we should go glimmering, sparkly lights show. It has been a while since we've pulled off another one of those ever since our first show.." Miori spoke up as we lifted our heads.
"I mean, it's difficult unless L/n-san is up for the challenge. Is that alright?" Yuta placed a hand on my shoulder as I gave a side glance, nodding yeah since I didn't really mind the work. Honestly, it was better than having to do nothing at home and a good way to distract me off of homework and my parents.
"Then it's decided! A glimmering neon lights show~! How exciting." The blackette gave a small chuckle as she ran backstage to her bag, grabbing a notepad and writing down more ideas.
The rest of the day, we continued planning out our show to see how it would play out. We thought of music we might do and costumes maybe. We had a lot on our mind since the deadline was due almost in two weeks...
(QUICK SIDE NOTE: just pretend tsukasa and rui didn't sing fixer already 🥰 im too obssessed w the song and idk what else to use😢 and also just imagine it being like a super bright purple blue yellow and red in the dark neon typa show bc yeah....)
"Nnnghhh!! I'm tired already guysss..." Kayo stretch her arms out tiredly, throwing herself on the floor as some papers flew around.
"Kayo! Stop playing around! It hasn't even been about 2 hours—"
"Actually Miori-san, it's been 4 hours." Yuta interrupted Miori as she pouted her lips angrily.
"O-Okay well, still! Rest is for later. Planning is important!" She crossed her arms as she let out a nervous chuckle, Kayo and me giggling lightly as we stood up and went over to our bags.
Kayo told me about what type of music we should do for the light show. It was going to be a retro yet exciting but scary show at the same time. I nodded to her idea and planned to help her out to attach some lights to the costumes she already found inspiration for. Kayo, Hayuta and me would be wearing suits while Miori wore a dress. Kayo and Hayuta's suits would be the same while mine was different since we already told Yuta about the plan along with Miori. I'd have to be Miori's dance partner alongside her and have one of my robots do the lighting themselves..
"I'd have to add modifications if so. Just give me five days...I'll figure it out." I sighed as the rest nodded, us deciding to meet up in the sekai a couple of times during the week on our lunch.
Next week show is gonna be exhausting...
30 minutes later of talking, planning, agreeing and arguing, we manage to come up with a script in a day, more so in just a couple of hours too. We just needed to help Kayo find designs for the costumes, help with the music as well, lyrics and choreography with Yuta. It was definitely going to be exhausting and I can't wait to go home...
We all finally parted ways, me going the same path I usually take home from PW, but suddenly stopping at a stoplight.
The streets were a bit empty around my neighborhood, even though in Shibuya the streets were always filled to the brim.
I didn't like this uneasiness. I looked around and there I saw out of the corner of my eye.
