Restricted - KiriBaku Idol AU

Prologue

Please look at the bottom of the page for notes

Eijirou awoke to the sound of his alarm, which read 5:30am.

Today's plans were long, practicing for 11 hours straight until his body physically could not take it anymore was not exactly what the younger 10 year old him, had in mind for a career. Then, he aspired to be a teacher, teaching others to be kind and help one another. Eijirou wanted nothing more than that, to save people even if he didn't have the knack to be someone going down the medical field.

Until his childhood best friend, Tetsutetsu, convinced him to accompany him to an open audition a popular k-pop industry, UA Entertainment, had to open new opportunities for teenagers to train to become idols. He was only 16 at the time, only going just to see if he could spot any idols or famous people, which he did, and it was amazing.

Eijirou also hadn't been expecting to get in at all, considering he never once had a thing for singing, only dancing. He took some dance classes when he was in elementary school, loving to move his body to the rhythm. Dancing had always been a profound passion for Eijirou, a language through which he could express his emotions. Each movement he made felt like a release, allowing him to channel his energy into powerful motions which gave him a sense of self-accomplishment.

Especially when two weeks after the audition, UA Entertainment had sent both him and Tetsutetsu acceptance letters to train under the company. He remembers first walking through the practice room doors, bright lights illuminating the room. Other trainees around his age all sitting in the corners. Many of whom looked absolutely terrified, most likely the nervousness and excitement of starting a new chapter of their lives others could only dream of. However, the new trainees who weren't shaking with nervousness were jumping on and off the walls, their bodies pumping excitement throughout them. (Eijirou was part of the nervous group, just for context.)

Despite the pressures and challenges Eijirou had gone through to get where he was today, his group already with plans for a new comeback, he would not change any part of the journey he had coming here. It made him who he was today, who his group was today, the journey is still ongoing. He hopes it won't end anytime soon.

Eijirou stretched his arms, ignoring how droopy his eyes were and how restless his limbs had felt. If he went all this way, there was no going back from all the negative memories he really wished could be buried deep into his mind where they would be forgotten for the time being. At least until his group had finished its path, hopefully years from now.

After a quick shower he threw on his practice clothes, the fabric still lightly scented with detergent. And headed out the door, arriving at the studio not too long after.

By now the sun had risen, shining through the windows and painting the air with a golden hue. His members; Katuski, Hanta, Denki, and Fumikage, were already there, sitting on the floor waiting for their dance coach and team manager to come. Yes, they were a smaller boy group than most, but Eijirou liked it better this way, it gave him a shot to have more lines in songs, and show off his dance skills more.

In his group, he's the leader and main dancer, making sure everyone is in check while dancing to his heart content. He also is a sub rapper. Denki has once mentioned he is like the heart of the group, Eijirou denying, saying they all brought goodness.

Denki, the group's trip over, acts not only as a goof but also their main vocalist, a vocalist who's energetic and charming. Denki's vocals are beautiful, Eijirou was intimidated by him in their trainee days. So it was no wonder he made the group. His upbeat personality and infectious enthusiasm made him a popular member since their debut, bringing a light hearted vibe they all needed. Additionally, his natural charm makes him a great voice and expression for the group in interviews, bringing his humor along with him. He balances the more intense energies other members have.

Hanta is their lead rapper and sub-vocalist, kind of an all-rounder as he's great at everything a j-pop idol needs to be great. His laid-back personality adds to the group that Eijirou never knew they needed. As a rapper, Hanta's unique flow and charisma makes him stand out in their songs, while his ability to harmonize with Denki's vocals makes him a valuable asset in performances as well.

Fumikage, the youngest, but also the lead vocalist and visual, brings depth and style. His deep and resonant voices adds a unique dimension to their sound. As the visual, his strikingly handsome feature captures their fans' attention, embodying the group's concept. Eijirou wished he had a hot face like him.

Lastly, there was Katuski. Honestly, Eijirou was doubtful of the judges decision to put him in the final line-up of his group, but was incredibly grateful they had. Now he just pretends he hasn't doubted or questioned pre-debut Katuski. But Katuski is the group's main rapper and the group's center. He comes up with some of the group's songs, writing his own lyrics most of the time. Eijirou admires his ability to write lyrics. As the main rapper, he gives off a fierce delivery and sharp tone. Being center, he has this intense energy and captivating stage presence. He's outstanding, demanding attention with every move he takes, even Eijirou's attention.

Overall, Eijirou feels an overwhelming sense of pride and success of his group. As leader, he cherishes the strong bonds he developed with each member throughout the last 2 years, viewing them not only as teammates but as family. He does his best to celebrate each member's successes, and tries to meet their individual needs. Like he's responsible, which he is, to ensure everyone feels valued and included, he wants to create an atmosphere of positivity and encouragement. Watching his groupmates shine on stage for the first time ever filled him with joy and motivation, reinforcing belief in their potential.

Denki had rambled on to Eijirou about some fan edits he saw the previous night, when suddenly their manager and dance coach walked into the room. A wave of authority washing over the room. Denki gulped, all the members raising and greeting them. Their manager was a savvy and dedicated woman, named Miura Sana.

"Alright, let's get started, shall we?" their dance coach, a man named Hajime, said. Well not really said, commanded. From there they began the 11 hours of practicing the members are used to. Save for Denki, who always complains later in the evenings about his body aching too much to go out with the rest.

Evenings were also the time Eijirou took to communicate with their fans, their Sparkz, wanting them to know they are also part of their group, DYNAMIX 's, journey.

Notes.
