Aikatsu Crescent!

「Phase 02」Aiming for a Dream!

Mai walked onto the grounds of Celestial Academy, clutching onto the handle of a pastel pink suitcase. It had been around a month just the auditions had taken, and the school year was finally starting. The school grounds were bustling with students, some looking extremely nervous, but the majority seeming excited. Mai looked around, her eyes sparkling.

"I'm here... I'm finally going to become an idol!" She exclaimed, with a large smile on her face. She had been looking forward to arriving for the entire month, and she was finally here! After taking in the amazingness of it all, the pink haired took a deep breath, before noticing a bulletin board with the words "Dorm Numbers" neatly printed on the top. Mai's eyes gleamed once again as she excitedly started to walk over. She pushed through the large crowd in front of her and started scanning through the list for her name. After a few seconds, she finally noticed her name, and she nodded.

"Room 437... that's here!" Mai clutched onto the sleeve of her green blazer. She had forgotten to check her roommate's name... What if she was supposed to? The pinkette quickly shook her head, took a deep breath, and placed her hand on the door handle.

"Calm down, Mai. You're worrying for nothing- I'm sure she's nice!" She muttered to herself, desperately trying to perk herself up. The young girl opened the door. On the other side, there was a girl with long, purple hair in a side ponytail, desperately unpacking. As the door opened, she turned to face Mai, and both girls blinked.

"It's you!" Mai exclaimed, pointing at the girl, "I'd recognise that side ponytail anywhere!" The purple haired girl stood up.

"Amamiya Mai... I knew I recognised your name from somewhere!" She paused, before smiling. "You made it in, then? Congrats!" Mai blushed slightly before realising something.

"Wait, I'm in the wrong dorm, aren't I?!" She reddened, embarrassed by her realization. "There's no way you're a first year... Right?" She reached for the door once again until the purple haired girl spoke up.

"I... am a first year though?"

"Ehh?? But, you look so mature, and you're so talented!" Mai let go of the handle and turned to take a better look at her new roommate. The girl had bright magenta eyes, and an extremely good figure, especially for a twelve-year-old. She sighed.

"Just because I don't look like a child like you do...", she muttered, laughing slightly, "What about the other one? Did that annoying girl get through?"

Mai pouted."Sachi-chan isn't annoying!!" The purple-haired girl laughed in response, causing Mai to giggle as a result.

"You're pretty good at avoiding questions," the purple-haired girl responded before holding her hand out, "I never introduced myself, did I? I'm Shimura Tsubaki!" Mai smiled and grabbed Tsubaki's hand.

"I'm Amamiya Mai! Nice to meet you, Shimura-san!" She beamed brightly, and Tsubaki smiled, as the two shook hands. Tsubaki stared at the two suitcases, dumped on the floor before glancing over to the two twin bed.

"We should probably start unpacking already. We have the entrance ceremony soon, after all. Which bed do you want?"

Around an hour later, the two girls made their way to the main hall. It was filled with students, all shining in their own ways. The two girls sat, and before long, the headmistress walked onto the stage.
