"I've got to pee so bad!" Yui exclaimed, crossing her legs as she stood behind the curtain to the stage.

"Why couldn't you have used it before we put on our costumes?" Moa questioned, looking at her friend.

Yui pulled an almost painful-looking face. "I didn't have to at the time!"

Su walked up behind them, a refreshed look on her face. "The bathroom has scented soap! America is great!"

Yui pouted as she turned towards the tallest member. "Stop boasting, Su-chan," she grumbled.

"She has to pee," Moa explained to the eldest of the group.

"Oh! Well then why don't you go--"

"You're on!" A staff member whisper-yelled, before the introduction played.

Yui let out a sigh as she stood with her other members, and tried not to concentrate on her already-full bladder. Why did she drink can after can of American soda? Why? Why did the sweet, carbonated liquid taste so good to her? Why was it so addicting that it made her consume liters of it in one sitting?

"Just hold on until break," Moa said, smiling.

Yui nodded, walking out to her spot. Maybe if she doesn't think about it, then she'll forget about it, right?

Finally, break came, and Yui rushed off the stage to the bathroom. It had come earlier than planned since Yui's dancing was weird from her trying to control her bladder.

The small teen ran to the bathroom and used it in relief. After washing her hands, she walked out, smiling a bit to herself. At least she didn't pee on the stage, because that would have been embarrassing.

"Yui..."

Yui paused upon hearing the voice. Well, more like a hissing noise. She looked around and noticed none of the stage crew was around. So what made the noise?

"H-hello?" She called out, in English.

She hoped it was just an American fan that was lost. And they probably had a cold or something, which was why their voice sounded weird.

In the corner, she found a black-hooded figure hunched over, facing her. She couldn't see a face, due to how dark the corner was, so she didn't walk over.

"Who are you?" Yui asked, still in English.

The figure stood to its full height, still covered by what looked like a cloak. They stood at least a foot taller than the small Japanese native, which was more than slightly intimidating. Who were they? Why were they just slouching in a corner? Had they been plotting this the whole time?

"You look absolutely stunning, Yui," the figure said. She knew for sure it was a man. The hissing was hardly there, but she could detect a faint lisp.

"Th-thank you. But who are you?" She repeated.

The man took a step towards her, and she took a step backwards. Who the heck was he?? This was what Yui wanted to know, but she could also feel a sense of danger. There was something shady about this guy. Very shady indeed.

"Don't be afraid," the man assured. "I just want to talk to you."

Yui fumbled with her fingers nervously. She had to get back to Su and Moa before the break ended, but what about this guy? If she left, would he still be here? She still wanted to know what the deal was with this guy.

"Um, I have a show to continue," Yui said, trying to excuse herself.

"Aw, come on. Only a couple of minutes. It won't take long, I promise."

Yui knew she shouldn't have accepted, knew she shouldn't have even been talking to him. But she stayed.

And she regretted it.

Okay, this probably turned out pretty crappy, since I think it was late at night when I wrote this.😬
