Sorry about making you all take a detour before the night show.

But I felt that I should say “hi” to Emu and the others since we're here.

Are you sure you don't want to see them, Haruka, An?

I'd feel bad about taking up time before the start of their big show.

Yeah, I'm sure we'll get another chance to see them.

Okay...
Then, Kohane and I are gonna go talk to them for a bit.

Alright, have fun.

Hmm... Do you see any of them?

No, I guess they really are busy. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to do this just before their show's about to start...

Oh! Kohane! Minori!
You came to see us?!

Hi, Emu! I'm so glad we found you!

So, I wanted to thank you guys for helping us out when we were getting ready for the Fan Festival. Do you have some time to talk?

Of course!

Tsukasa! Nene! Rui!
Kohane and Minori came to see us☆

Ah, well met, you two!

Yes, it's been a while!
Thank you so much for the way you helped me out during the Fan Festival!

Oh, that? It was nothing!

We're both in the business of spreading hope and making others smile. It's only natural for us to lend each other a hand since we work so hard every day!

Hehe. What a windbag.

Oh, anyway.
Are you two staying for the night show?

Yeah! We heard that it uses all of PXL as a stage, so we're both really excited!

You are?! Hehe. That means we have to make it extra fun this time♪

Yes, we should... Why don't we send Tsukasa flying a little higher than usual as a special surprise?

That won't be necessary.
Also, there's no scene in this show involving that...

More importantly, don't forget to get a bracelet from one of the staff.

Oh, that's for the climax, right?!

Yeah. You get a signal during the show to raise it in the air.

Heh heh heh.
We made things even more fun recently by adding in some lucky bracelets♪

Lucky bracelets?

Oh, what do you think she means by “lucky”...?!

Hehe. You'll just have to wait and find out♪

Hehe. Alright, we'll be looking forward to it!

“No...! Master...!”

“The lights went out...
The horses and the flying rides...
They've all just stopped...!”

*Sob*
Shao...

Whoa... All the lights are going dim...

This is what PXL looks like when it's completely dark? It's like everything that was fun and happy here just vanished...

Yeah. I'm getting goosebumps from how well it goes with Shao's story.

This is unbelievable... It's literally using all of PXL as its stage...

“Wait, no...
This is no time to be crying...”

“If what Master said is true, that means I can...! No, we can...!”

“Everyone...!! Can you hear me?!”

Yeah...!
We can hear you, Shao!

“Everyone, please! Lend me your energy!”

“This was the last thing Master told me! Everybody here can use magic because you're all smiling, laughing and making this such a happy place...!!”

“I can't do this alone! I'm not as good at using magic like Master was, so please, lend me your energy...!!”

“Lend me your smiles, your joy, your magic...!!”

Oh, that's our signal!

Yeah! Minori!

Alright!
We're gonna give you everything we have, Shao!

Whoa, her bracelet's so pretty!

Oh wow! It's a rainbow!

Huh...?
Wh-Wh-What's going on?!

Wait, Minori... Isn't that one of the “lucky bracelets” Otori was talking about?

Yeah, it totally is! I mean, you're the only rainbow one around here!

That's amazing, Minori!
Oh, I should take a photo of it!

“Alright, let's use your magical smiles to bring light back to this place!”

“Wave!”

Minori, try pointing your bracelet at some trees or buildings like Emu's doing!

O-Okay! I'll try...!
Wave!

Whoa, the lights!
They're gorgeous...

Hey, I think we can do it too...!

Wow! This is so much fun!

Minori, turn this way!
And strike a pose!

Yay!

Hehe. That's a great expression!
Alright, one more...

Wave! Huh...?
Mommy, it's not working.

Oh, that's too bad...
We must not have enough magic.

Oh...

Would you like to keep trying with me? Here, we can do it together!

Oh, money shot...!

Wave!

Wow, we lit them all up!
Thank you so much!

Hehe. You're very welcome.

Hehe. Kohane's so enamored in taking pictures.

She and her dad like photography.
Oh, that reminds me...

Kohane's dad apparently likes taking pictures of her more than anything else...

I can see why. She's just like Minori in terms of being capable of so many facial expressions...

I know, right?! I totally get how her dad feels.

Hehe. Why don't we take some as well?

Yeah, great idea!

Huh...? A-An, Haruka?!
Were you taking photos of me?!

Oh, busted!
No, wait. This just means we should be taking more!

No, An! This is so embarrassing!
