"You can masquerade and dance about, veiling the truth only for so long ... before the spotlight shines on you and all those around are left to bear witness to your falsity." Tsuki Nomura. An average looking girl living in Tokyo, Japan, with a knack for playing the piano and entertaining others. She and her parents had been happily enjoying their pampered lifestyle on the upperside of Tokyo, until the night of Tsuki's first major solo performance ... when they encounter a young, rather swarthy fellow whom invites them to dinner. From that night on, the quality of their lives only declines.

Victore Academy boarding school is a lot of things. To the outside world, it's the heaven of schools. For some students, it's an experience they'll never forget. For others, it's the place to start their careers. And maybe for a few, it's the peak of their lives and really as good as it's going to get for them. And for me... well, I'll need a bit more than this to talk about that. But before you step in, here's a few things that everyone makes note of: 1. The students have secrets. And money. It's hard to tell what more of, honestly. 2. Don't get a room on the West Side of the girl's dorms. The birds around that private property lake house downside from campus don't stop chirping at 5AM. It's unpleasant, to say the least. 3. Avoid Mr. Labadee's classroom at all costs outside of lessons, especially past fifth period. It's better off if you're left in the dark with this one. 4. That asshole from Spain that terrorizes all the young freshmen is not hot. However, girls do make note of the fact that he works out post seventh period and right before first, near the track field. 5. The Victor's Tournament happens every year for all the senior year students. It's a pretty big deal. 6. And I think Armin Rivers is probably going to kill someone before he wins it (and it's probably gonna be that Spanish asshole). cover by soundthealarm
