Minori

Listen

Hmm...
Shiho's been gone a long time...

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, you're right. She did mention something about Tenma's group needing a little more time before they perform...

Minori

Listen

Oh, right... I've been meaning to ask Kohane about that since she's in Saki's group, but I haven't seen her for a while now either...

Haruka

Listen

Oh, there go the lights. Does this mean that they're about to start...?

Haruka

Huh? Wait, is that...?

Saki

Listen

Hello, everyone♪
Welcome to Saki and Emu's magic show!

Saki

Listen

We were actually supposed to do our real performance now, but we ran into some trouble and need a little more time to get ready...

Saki

Listen

We apologize for making you all wait like this! But in the meantime, we'd like to do a magic show for you! We hope you like it♪

Sound Effect: Play

Minori

Listen

They ran into some trouble? So they're doing a magic show instead...?

Haruka

Listen

I don't really understand either, but I guess they're buying time for their other group members...?

Saki

Listen

Alright, I hope you're ready.
Presenting our great magician, Emu!

<Emu! Can you hear me?>

Emu

Listen

Yup! Loud and clear☆ But it's funny how you're sitting in my pocket like this, Miku♪

Miku's Voice

Listen

<Right? It's like I'm your fairy companion.>

Emu

Listen

Hehe. Especially since we're the same height in SEKAI!

Emu

Listen

Anyway, Miku, I'll be counting on your help...!

Miku's Voice

Emu

Listen

Thanks!
Alright, let's use our magic to make everyone smile!

Emu

Listen

Let's start with an extra special trick☆
Out of this hat, many things will appear!

Minori

Listen

Oh, this is better than I expected! I can't wait to see what happens!

Haruka

Listen

Me too. Otori's a seasoned stage performer, so I'm sure she'll do great.

Emu

Listen

Now, Saki, if you'll repeat after me...♪
Cards! Cards! Wherever you are!

Saki

Listen

Okay!
Uh... Cards! Cards! Wherever you are!

Emu

Listen

Ta-daah!
Cards everywhere!!

Saki

Listen

Whoa, that's amazing...!
So many playing cards...!

Minori

Listen

What?! Was she hiding all those cards in her hat?!

Haruka

Listen

Maybe, I'm not sure...! I wonder how she did it...

Emu

Listen

(Honami and Kohane still aren't back yet, huh...?)

Emu

Listen

(Shiho said that she'll give us a signal when they did...)

Emu

Listen

(I'm sure they're doing their best. That means Saki and I need to keep trying too...!)

Emu

Listen

Next, these cards will magically turn into... Mr. Fishy!

Saki

Listen

What? Mr. Fishy?

Emu

Listen

Three, two, one... Wonderhoy!!

Saki

Listen

Whoa, they turned into a fish plushie!

Minori

Listen

Haruka, that was so cool!
How on earth did she just do that?!

Haruka

Listen

I don't know either.
It's also incredible how they had time to work on this alongside their actual performance...

Emu

Listen

And to finish, let's return our little fishy friend back to its home in the ocean!

Saki

Listen

Back into the ocean?
How?

Emu

Listen

Heh heh heh. Leave that to the great Emu☆

Emu

Listen

Let's all say farewell to our friend, everyone! Three, two, one, wonderhoy!!

Sound Effect: Play

Saki

Listen

What?! It turned into blue confetti...?!

Minori

Listen

Oh, it's so pretty!!

Haruka

Listen

It is...!
It's like the stage is the ocean now...

Emu

Listen

Mr. Fishy made it back to the ocean!

Emu

Listen

Oh...

Emu

Listen

(Thank goodness, they made it back! We did it, Saki! We can do our real performance now!)

Emu

Listen

And Mr. Fishy being back home in the ocean means our magic show must sadly come to an end!

Saki

Listen

Thanks, everyone! We hope you enjoyed it!

Emu

Listen

Bye bye!!

Emu

Listen

Luckily, Saki did super duper good, so everything went really smoothly!

Saki

Listen

Shiho helped too!

Shiho

Listen

Hardly. Well, maybe a little...
