Love Live!: SHATTER [PART 9]

WON'T BE LONG NOW:

A/N: This is a very dark chapter, it focuses on themes some may find disturbing. I do not condone these in any way and they are presented here in a villainous light for intent of being portrayed as immoral and wrong.

The characters present are villains with no redeeming qualities. You are supposed to hate them.

Reader discretion is advised.

*MEANWHILE*

*VIP LOUNGE - ALMOST HEAVEN - SHINJUKU - TOKYO*

ODA: "My, my, my, my, my... Ohoho, 'The Shine Hour'. Our little pawn Akihiko played his part beautifully! So wide-eyed, earnest, the perfect martyr for the cameras. Little does he know he's already signed his own death warrant!
And Katsuo... Oh, that boy was exquisite. Arrogant, vicious, exactly the monster we needed the public to see. Everything is proceeding precisely as planned.
Won't be long now!"

TENDO: "The boy practically begged the nation to hate Golden Calf.
By the time the Festival rolls around, Kamijou will be the villain everyone loves to despise. And when his boy Katsuo falls... Heheheh... He'll see who the true kings of this industry are."

KAMIKI: *Sip* "Ahh... Indeed. The board's already whispering. Stocks are twitching. One decisive, public humiliation and Seichi Kamijou's empire fractures. Then we carve it up like the fat pig it is.
The solution to most problems, all it takes is one little push."

ODA: "Finally... I will take my revenge on my old business partner. Kamijou Senior. I hated that bastard, I hope he's looking up from hell at the years of preparation I've made. Years of feeding his son's ego, propping up his golden boy, and letting him believe he was untouchable.
And now the trap snaps shut. All because of one sentimental little school idol contest."
