[Word count - 865]

A new day...

Location - Kaisei Academy, Front Gate

Your POV

As I made my way to school the next day, I noticed Mitsuka hanging out by the front gate, waiting for me like she always does.

"Good morning, (Y/N)-kun." She said and she gave me a sweet smile.

"Good morning to you, too." I said and smiled back at her.

"Were you able to listen to that band I recommended to you the other day?" She asked.

"Yeah, and thanks to them, I managed to get my homework done in no time." I replied.

"Really? That's good."

The bell started ringing, signaling us that it was time for us to head to our first class of the day.

"Shall we get to class?" I asked.

"Yeah. We don't need to get in trouble with our senseis." Mitsuka chuckled.

I chuckled as well as the two of us headed inside the building. I honestly couldn't get Ave Mujica out of my mind, though, and I couldn't wait to hear them again.

Lunchtime...

Location - Kaisei Academy, Courtyard

Once again, I am at the courtyard eating lunch with Mitsuka, and the whole time, we were talking about what kind of bands we're interested in. To my surprise, she has a lot of groups she's interested in, especially Pastel*Palettes and Roselia.

As for me, so far I've been interested in Hello, Happy World!, and Matsubara Kanon is my favorite member. But if I had to pick a second band to like... perhaps it would be Ave Mujica, and Timoris would be my favorite member.

But I can't seem to figure out why would they cover their faces on stage? Maybe Mitsuka knows the answer to that.

"Say, Mitsuka, I do have a question about Ave Mujica." I said.

"Yes, what is it?" She asked.

"Have you ever wondered why they wear masks on stage?" I asked.

"I wondered about that, too." She said. "But it sounds like something only they would know."

"Yeah, maybe you're right."

However, giving up isn't in my dictionary. I am going to uncover the identities of Ave Mujica, and learn the truth with my own two hands.

After school...

Location - Train Station

I soon realized that trying to uncover the identities of Ave Mujica was going to be a lot harder than I thought. To be honest, I have no idea where to begin. What was I thinking?

I let out a sigh as I waited for the train to take me home. Mitsuka said she was going to hangout with a friend after school, so it's just me by myself. I looked up at the sky and saw the gray clouds above.

"Is it going to rain?" I asked myself while still looking up at the sky above.

"I wouldn't bet on it."

To my surprise, there was a girl wearing a Hanasakigawa school uniform standing beside me. She appeared out of nowhere with a serious expression.

"WHERE THE HELL DID YOU COME FROM?!" I asked. The girl wasn't taken aback by my outburst. She just stayed serious while looking up at the sky.

"It's only going to be cloudy for the next few days, and after that, it'll start raining." She said.

"Incredible..."

"It isn't. I just pay attention to the weather app on my phone."

"Oh, I see."

The girl kept standing there, and looking up at the sky. She was cool for sure, but I can't help but think that I might've seen her somewhere before.

After a while, she looked at me and saw my school uniform. She let out a smile as she did.

"That's Kaisei Academy's school uniform, isn't it?" She asked.

"Yeah, have you heard of it?" I responded.

"Yes. I wanted to go there, but my parents made me go to Hanasakigawa Girls Academy instead."

"Oh, do you like there?"

"I guess so. I did manage to make a few friends over there, so I guess maybe it was a good thing that they made me go."

She looked at me again with curiosity.

"What about you? What made you go to Kaisei Academy in the first place?"

"Well, I think it's because it's the closest school to my house."

"Is that so?"

"Yes."

"I see."

Soon the train began to pull up, and right when I was about to get on it, the girl stopped me.

"Is it okay if you tell me your name?"

"My name is (Y/N) (L/N). What about you?"

"Yahata Umiri."

Umiri, huh?

Soon the train took off, and I sat down on one of its chairs. During the whole train ride, I kept thinking about that girl, and how cool she was. Still, though, she does look familiar. But where? I can't put my finger on it.

"Oh well, maybe I shouldn't overthink this anyway."

As such, I just looked at the window, and began to think about life a little bit.
