Kohane

Listen

Huff... Huff...
2

RUST Member A

Argh! Darn it!
3

GLaP day Member A

Yes, I win this round.
4

Kohane

Listen

(Everyone from GLaP day's so good...
No matter how many times I try, I still can't beat any of them...)
5

Kohane

Listen

(At this rate, will I even be able to...?)
6

Kohane

Listen

(No, I don't have time to be worrying right now. As hard as this all is, I have to find a way to win...!)
7

GLaP day Member A

You must be exhausted, Kohane.
Why don't we take a break?
8

Kohane

Listen

Huh? O-Oh, okay!
9

GLaP day Member A

Haha. I know you already want to battle again, but you'll lose your voice if you push yourself too hard.
10

Kohane

Listen

Yes, you're right...
Then, let's take a quick break.
11

RUST Member A

Still, it can't be easy juggling this with being a student. I mean, you had school earlier today, right?

RUST Member B

She did dash over to come train right after classes too. You probably don't have much free time, huh?
13

Kohane

Listen

Oh, um... No, I don't.
14

Kohane

Listen

But I'm sure all of you experienced the same thing. I heard that you also formed your teams when you were still in school...
15

RUST Member A

Yeah, true.
We always got together right after school got out and sang until we went blue.
16

RUST Member A

And the teachers kept coming after us about taking supplementary classes. They kept saying, “You're going to be held back if you don't show up for them!”
17

Kohane

Listen

R-Really? I had no idea...
18

Kohane

Listen

(Held back...
Come to think of it, some of us went through something similar...)
19

Kohane

Listen

(I'm so glad that we were all able to become second-years together.)
20

GLaP day Member A

How's life as a student, Kohane?
21

Kohane

Listen

Huh? Me?
Umm...
22

Kohane

Listen

Lately, we practice every morning before school starts.
23

Kohane

Listen

And after school, we travel to different venues or stay around here to practice. Then we practice again at night at Weekend Garage.
24

RUST Member A

Hmm, that wasn't what I was expecting to hear.
25

Kohane

Listen

Huh...?
26

RUST Member A

I was just expecting to hear that you've been hanging out with friends and stuff since you are still a student...
27

Kohane

Listen

Oh, so...
My friends have also been really busy, so we haven't been able to hang out much.
28

Kohane

Listen

Some are hard at work as idols, some are debuting as a professional band...
29

RUST Member B

Wow, credit where credit's due. Kids these days are so mature at such a young age...
30

Kohane

Listen

Yes, they're all really hard workers...!
And seeing them do that makes me want to do the same.
31

Kohane

Listen

Which is why I've been practicing on my own as much as I can!
32

RUST Member A

I see.
When you put it that way, you sorta fall into our category.
33

Kohane

Listen

Huh?
34

RUST Member A

You love singing more than anything.
35

Kohane

Listen

More than anything...?
36

Owner of COL

Well, that much is obvious.
She wouldn't be here if she were some run-of-the-mill singer.
37

Kohane

Listen

(Yeah, I'm not exactly what you'd call normal, am I?)
38

Kohane

Listen

(I haven't really given it much thought since I've been practicing after school ever since I formed a team with An and the others...)
39

Kohane

Listen

(In retrospect, all I really have been doing is singing.)
40

Kohane

Listen

(But...)
41

RUST Member A

Still, not being a normal student is pretty fun, am I right?
42

Kohane

Listen

Oh...
43

Kohane

Listen

Yes!
Singing nonstop has been really fun!
44

Owner of COL

Hehe. I see.
45

RUST Member A

That's what we like to hear!
Otherwise, you can't really call yourself a singer!
46

GLaP day Member A

Anyway, wanna get back to practicing?
47

Kohane

Listen

Oh, right.
Before I cool down too much...
48

Kohane

Listen

So, let's resume!
49

GLaP day Member A

Okay, we're ready whenever.
50

Kohane

Listen

(I'm going to keep not being a normal student. I'm going to keep practicing and singing like there's no tomorrow...)
51

Kohane

Listen

(I'm going to keep taking everything I experience and channel it all into my music!)
52

Kohane

Listen

(I'm going to propel myself forward and help make our dream come true!)
53

Kohane

Listen

Here I go!
