[This Chapter is non-canon to the main storyline]
December 1st
Winter has finally set afoot in the town, with stores showing the holiday spirit by decorating for Christmas. We find ourselves at CiRCLE, with two particular workers getting in the Christmas mood as well.
Akira: And... done!
Akira soon got off of the ladder and fully examined the completely decorated tree, with its lights and ornaments sparkling.
Marina: Thanks for the help Akira-san, we managed to finished ahead of time somehow.
Akira: Its feels as if I been here since forever, even though it hasn't even been a year.
Marina: You excited about the Christmas party on Christmas Eve?
Akira: Sure am! Can't wait till then.
Marina: Akira-san, what do you plan on giving to the girls?
Akira looked puzzlingly at Marina for a monent, then turned back around and innocently began to whistle.
Marina: ...Don't tell me you forgot!
Akira: I haven't forgot about them, in matter of fact I am more confused.
Marina: Confused?
Akira: It's very much impossible to give everyone a gift, unless I don't want to not eat for a week. The only logical thing would to entertain them with an experience.
Marina: Why not hold a magic show for all of them?
Akira: They seen me perform my tricks already. It wouldn't really be treated as "special" in this case.
Marina: How about you sing in front of them?
Akira: No can do, I absolutely terrible at singing.
Marina: I beg to differ, come here.
Marina soon waves for Akira to follow her into a mysterious room, with the door being labeled with "STAFF ONLY". As he entered the room a wall of what appears to be moniters were displayed, each one was then connected to the various surveillance cameras around the live house.
Marina: Here, take a look.
Marina then held a disc that was labeled November 24th-November 30th and inserted it into the computer.
November 28th, 11:30 a.m., Studio 1
Marina was found in Studio 1, just cleaning up the mess and performing any needed maintenance. After finishing everything she needed to do, she walked forward to the microphone stand and began to talk to herself.
Marina: C'mon Marina, it's only five simple words. You have to to express your true feelings or you are gonna lose to them.
She then appears to take a few minutes to stand there, as if she was readying herself for some major.
Marina: Akira-san, I L-L...
End of Video
Before hearing the line being spoken completely, Marina quickly began to fast forward to another time taken by the camera. When Akira initially tried to question Marina about the video, she stared daggers back at him, which caused him to completely avoid the rest of the topic.
Marina: Here's the real video!
Once again, Marina began to press the play button and the video started playing.
