Yamato
It seemed like Adriano was gonna question the girl a bit, from what he could see before, the girl was being chased by some people but he wasn't sure if to get involved with all this right now. He still had half the image of the kiss in his mind, a hint of arousal in his mind but he quickly shook his head to clear it up.
"Yea I'm having fun, what about you Luna? Oh yea maybe nows the chance in which you could explain to me, are you Luna, I mean the Luna I met with Alice?" he inquired seeing as they where alone once again.
"I guess I could loosen my lips a little on why. But exactly why? Now that's a door you ain't got the key for, darlin'. Now smile for me and I'll throw a bone to that there invasive curiosity of yours." She said as she moved her two index fingers to the corners of his mouth and pressed them gently upward, forcing his serious expression into a smile.
"Ain't you just something else. M-hm I could just eat you all up couldn'I? Now, as for the 'why' you were hollering about all I feel like sayin' is that those rude men seemed to have involved me in some business of theirs through a misunderstanding I can assure ya' was on their behalf." she replied, still keeping her playful tone throughout the exchange.
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven
Luna
"yeah, that's me" She said with a smile. "I was cursed by a witch, that's why I'm half human, half cat" She said looking into his blue eyes with her big hazel eyes. "but you know, I kinda grew fond of being like this. not that I really had a choise" She pokes Yamatos side as she was telling him about herself. "btw, the whole cats have 9 life's thing... it's true, I have 8 more to go" She says while giggling.
Yamato
Luna's explenation brought up even more questions to his mind like why did a witch curse her or how did she already loose one of her lifes but he refrained from asking them since he felt it might bring back bad memories for her, right now they where gonna have fun after all. "No wonder my hand kept getting drawn towards your head" he said with a laugh, "I did feel like I had seen those eyes before, but it's really a surprise it's you Luna" he added with a smile and poked back at her.
"Having 9 lifes seems pretty great"
"I suggest you answer the question, I just want to help, and please don't touch my face, I don't know where your dirty self has been at, ...darling" saying that last part with attituded as he removed her finguers by moving his lips around,he gave her a stare that seemed angry, yet willing to help, as he thought " Oh come on Atlas, like this girl wants your help, still I'm better off asking, than keeping my curiosity buried in "
Luna
She couldn't help but chuckle a bit when he said that his hand was drawn to her head. "isn't it ironic? I mean when you first saw me, I don't think you could have imagine it end up like this, with us having so much fun togather" She quickly glances over to where Adriano was at, to see if it looked like he was coming over soon. she then gazes back at yamato, she loved looking into his eyes. "I told you a bit about myself, you should tell a bit about your self. like where you came from and stuff."
"Oh-ho the boy's got himself a big pair of balls don't 'e?" She said with delight as her grin grew broader. After tapping on the railing one last time for good measure Allyson lept onto the ground and walked to Adriano. When she reached her destination she stopped and put her arm around Adriano's shoulder and squeezed him tightly against her body. With their heads so close together Allyson used her free hand to pull out her phone to take selfies as she spoke, striking a different facial pose with each shot. "The problem you're asking to help with is the kind'a one that makes better men realise where altruism ends and audacity begins. So how 'bout we leave this to the lovely lady to solve for herself?" she said, giving him a peck on the cheek and taking a picture of it as she did.
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven
Adriano knew he wouldn't get the chance to help, but he couldn't help having this blood lust, feeling as though he needed to kill. Adriano removed Allyson from him, and grabbed her phone, deleting all pictures but one, the one of her kissing his cheek. "I'll let you keep one you prev, next time I'll just brake your phone, but may I know who exactly was I talking to?" He asked in a strange happy yet annoyed voice. Starring at her dead eye, with his blood red eyes, and the most solemn face. He just looked at her while he walked away expecting an answer by the time he would make it to Luna, and Yamato
Yamato
"Yea it's pretty strange how things turn out, but I guess that's all pretty normal in Mirai" he said jokingly, he returned the stare and replied, "Hmm something about? I'm not sure what I could say, I'm a pretty great guy, not really, I'm just normal I guess." he joked around a bit and thought some more. "Let's see, I grew up in my hometown which is a bit faraway from here and I wasn't that great of a student but school wasn't bad either. Although stuff seems so lively over here that I feel like I'll never feel bored again." he finished with a smile. This was pretty true since the moment he has arrived one thing after another has happened and he got to pass through some hardships and through some rewarding moments like beating Cilia, or passing out due to Red's seeds or the whole incident with Mary.
Luna
she giggles a bit after hearing a bit about Yamato "sounds like you've have had nothing but fun." She reached over to his car and poked his cheek before getting herself back in the car. "Do you belief in fate? and that everything happens for a reason?" she asks him out of the blue.
Yamato
Looking back on all his experiences in Mirai he chuckled and replied with a smile, "Yea I've had a lot of fun." He started thinking for a bit once Luna asked him if he believed in fate, "Hmm, I would say I kinda believe in it but at the same time not. It might sound dumb but I believe that some things happen for a reason but I also believe that this isn't set in stone, I feel like we can change fate sometimes." he said noticing that he rambled on he scratched his head in embarassment. "How about you? Do you believe in fate?" he asked Luna wanting to know her thought on it.
Luna
"I do believe in fate and that everything happens for a reason. I did meet Alice because of fate. She is the nicest and most caring person I know' She said with a smile "and it so happens that the very first person she meets has the power to talk to animals and he was able to talk to Me in my cat form" she says whIle giggling. "I think they are on a date right now"
Yamato
"How long have you and Alice known each other?" he asked Luna, after hearing her speak of this other person and his power he asked her, "And how come didn't you stay with them? It feels like you could talk with him even in your cat form and not be bored" he felt a bit strange about it since it wasn't like he could understand her in her cat form.
Adriano
As he noticed he was not going to get an answer from Allyson, Adriano made his way to Yamato and Luna, not surprised he saw the two acting like a couple again "Could you love birds stop being all googaly eyed at each other its making me quite sick? And also, I know we had a bet, but could one of you show me where I could practice my singing? It has been a while and I want to get to work on the songs I wrote." he tried his best not to sound annoyed, so he just looked at them with a lost face, trying to seem innocent while doing it.
Luna
'there in the school garden, that place is way two peacefull for me. I wanted to go out and play. and that's when I smelled your scent so I decided to go and play with you." she says happily "I made the right choise!" right when she says this, she see's Adriano coming back and blushes as he says the comment about them acting like a couple
"Karaoke!" She says as he says he wanted to sing "we should do that after playing some games, it sounds like so fun!"
"btw, the game is already set, we are just waiting for you"
Adriano "I guess since we are here, I can beat you both, and sing karaoke, but I choose the song, I love some american songs, sad, yet nice, plus the singer sounds like me so yeah" he laughed, began to work on his voice, and got on the car and got prepared to most likely loose, despite learning how to drive, he still felt he could not drive good enough to win.
Luna
She presses the start botton and the game began
On your mark....Get set....Go!
She pressed the start botton which was also the engine and began their race through Europe. It started ato a pretty easy pace and she was doing ok in her driving. She speeds up and makes all the twist and turns without hitting anything
Yamato
He was partially thinking that they weren't flirting or anything like that but at the same time they might've been? He didn't really have experience with this stuff so he couldn't tell from someone elses point of view if it seemed like that.
"I'm not that confident in my singing but sure we can try it out after the race" he said as he got ready, once the race started by mistake he bumped against some other cars causing him to stall behind but from that point he went at a steady pace trying to catch up to the others.
As he started, he began to talk about his time in Europe, trying to make it sound nice he spake about Italy first, "In Italy, these races are huge, so many people show up, as well as famous artist, and politicians, and religius leaders, man when I was there the water look so clean, I could just fall and..." he was cut off from his rambaling when he hit a wall within the game.
Yamato
It seemed like Adriano really liked to go off and talk about different things while he was ocupied but I guess it's good to keep your mind off stressful stuff, Yamato thought when he noticed him smashing against a wall, maybe it's not that good when you should be concentrating though he added to his thoughts. It seemed like Luna was in first place but at least Yamato was catching up passing one car after another, at this point it still wasn't determined if she would win or not.
As he got back in the game, he began to speed up, he had to win, he had to know who these people are, power knowledge, and so as soon as he saw Yamato's car he rammed it out the way, pushing forward hoping to catch up to Luna in time to win. "I need to know them more, just in case I ever feel like its necessary to take them down, I know what to do" is all he could think while speeding in the game. As he sped up, something from the back of his mind just told him " Don't worry, these people are good, you even let them know you sing, its to late to have second thoughts at this point" So he slowed down, and began to smile, and stared at the screen with the dumbest smile ever, making both Yamato, and Luna chuckle.
Luna
She hears him talking about how nice Italy was "ehh..that sounds so fun" She was able to multi task because despite talking and hearing adriano. Luna was able to not make any mistake and keep herself in the lead. She giggles when she sees adrianos expression "you guys have some catching up to do if you want to win" she said as she stuck out her tongue
Adriano stop smiling so much and said "I might not win, but as soon as we get on that karaoke, I know for sure I will win that...I had a great teacher" he said this while staring fairly quick at the thin air above him, and then began to speed again, hoping to at the least get 2nd place.
Yamato
"Hey!" he yelled once Adriano rammed his car and got passed him, "I'll get you for that" he then said in a playfull tone, trying to catch up to him. At this point the chances of passing Luna where much lower since he got rammed but he wasn't gonna give up.
Luna
She had a big smirk on her face as she crossed the finishing line. who knew that she was actually going to be able to win. it was two badays that theyou had mention this was only a test run "yayyy!! I win." she waited to see who got second and who got third
Adriano began to fake a laugh of masculinity as he just reached his goal of second place. "And here I was worrying, well you should go ahead and ask me your question, shouldn't you?" All Adriano hoped, is she didn't ask something that would really hit his personal feelings. He just looked down at her, with a innocent face.
Luna
She pokes Adriano on his Stomach "so we are just gonna make this the determining race? that's fine by me" She said while giggling a bit. She then pats Yamato's head like he did to her often "you did a good job two"^.^
She starts to wonder about about what she should have them do. that's when it hit her. She just wanted to play with them and have a good time. "Both of you becamey friends and hang out with me for the rest of the day, doing fun things like karaoke and playing other games" she blushed and looked to the side "I also like being petted" she mumbled to herself
All Adriano could think was "This girl is strange, but I guess being her friend isn't bad, its a start to gaining some better people skills." Adriano reached out his hand far from his chest, and pated her head around there to four times as soft as he could, while still going fast, so it made her head bobble around a bit. "I don't fully know you, so for now that's the most of a petting you'll get."He than stared at the karaoke machine. "I'll get the machine ready" He proceeded to walk towards the karaoke machine.
Luna
She giggles as Adriano petted her head. his hand wasn't as warn as yamato's but She still liked it alot. she looked at him with her big hazel eyes as her head bobble around "haii, you go ahead and ready the machine up"
Once he left to do that, She turned to face Yamato and gripped his shirt looking down a bit. "I have never sang before, do you think, I will be ok?" she asked a bit nervous
"I guess I should stop being so weird, going from nice, to just utter strange, at the least I haven't gone on a mood swing and tried to explode on these guys, they really are nice. Oh I forgot, I should go set up I should sing, or should they set up a song first" As Adriano turned around he stared at Luna, and yelled his words "Hey do you want to pick the first song, I don't want to pick a song you don't want to sing."
Yamato
No matter how much he tried he could just make it to third spot as the race finished, once Luna patted his head like he usually would do hers he felt a bit like she was pitying him but surprisingly enough it didn't feel too bad being pat in the head.
"That's a simple request, we've aleady been doing that" he said jokingly at Lunas request, it seemed fitting her adding the petting part which made him laugh. Adriano seemed to go along with it and patted her, "Okay we'll catch up to you" he said to Adriano and turned to look at Luna "I think you'll be perfectly fine, I'm the one that will have a hard time" he joked as he patted her head.
Luna blushed and was relieve to know that she wasn't the only one that was worrying over this. She nuzzles her head against yamato's hand as he was petting her. She hears Adriano yell for her to go over and pick the first song. "haiiii!" She says as she makes her way over to where Adriano and the karaoke machine where at with yamato. . "I will pick the song that I was dancing to before, that is if neither of you mind. Oh, I've never done this before, so do we each pick our own songs and sing that or do we take turns singing the same song?" She says while looking at Adriano. She then picks the song she wanted to sing
Yamato
"Nah I don't mind at all" he said walking behind Luna as she rushed over, he then added "I think each person chooses the song they want to sing, or we could switch it around and make the other person choose the song that the person will sing. That would make for some funny moments" he finished with a smile.
"We all pick a song to sing, it has to be a song we all like. You can go ahead and choose what you want. We will take turns, each time singing a different song, so go ahead and start, and by the way, that song is just fine" As Adriano already knew which song he was going to sing, and smiled at Luna as well. He was content with not having to sing first, he was nervous actually.
Luna
She was nervous while she made her way to the small stage that was there. She went up a Few steps of stairs and made her way over to the Microphone. She just stood there for a bit and looked at both yamato and Adriano. "a-alright, Start the song and I will start singing to the beat"
Yamato
He gave Luna a thumbs up as she looked back at the two, "Okay I'll start the song" he called out and pressed the play button. Waiting expectantly to see how she would do.
Adriano stared at Luna, and made a quick inexpressive smile. Yamato started the song, and as it reached to the vocal portion of the song, to his surprise Luna was a good singer. He enjoyed her voice, and bobbed his head side to side while he closed his eyes.
Luna
As soon as the song started to play and when it was the right time. She started to sing the lyrics of the song. She was doing an ok Job but her voice was a bit low. Luna still felt a bit nervous but once She started to sing and feel the beat. She forgot about everyone and just started to have fun. Her singing Became just like the singers of the song and She sang the song perfectly. Perhaps it was because She loved that song, or perhaps it was because she had lost her nervousness. But she was singing the song just like the singer or maybe even better.
Lyrics
When I was darkness at that time, with trembling lips
I cry in the corner of my room
The more I struggle, the more these wounds pierce into me
Our broken promises hurt me
Nobody can save me
God, I have one request
Stop tearing apart my love
I need your love. I'm a broken rose
The sadness of your song falls down on me
My life is lonely and I've nowhere to go
I need your love. I'm a broken rose
Oh baby, help me from frozen pain
With your smile, your eyes
And sing me, just for me
I wanna need your love...
I'm a broken rose
I wanna need your love...
When you are with me at that time
I chased after your shadow
Running barefoot, stop me
The more I try to shut it away, the more twisted this love gets
Yamato
It was no surprise that she was a bit nervous at first but once she got comfortable she sang really well, it seemed like Luna might be good at many things in this arcade. Yamato could see how much she was enjoying herself as she started skipping from side to side following the beat and her ears also seemed perked up, he was having a good time watching her be this upbeat and listening to her singing.
Adriano loved female singers, it made him smile to see how much fun Luna was having. "You are talented." he expressed as he clapped his hands. Now he had to push Yamato to go before him, so he said "Your turn Yamato, no holding back" He jokingly told Yamato.
Luna
She blushes as they clapped and Adriano said she was talented "thanks, I had so much fun doing that." She made her way off the stage and poked yamato "looks like your next. don't worry it may look scary at first, but it actually isn't and its super fun" She says trying to give him advise and encourage him. She was very curious as to what song he was going to choose.
Adriano did his fake masculine laugh and patted Yamato in the back and pointed him the stage. "Share your glorious voice my friend, allow us to hear the voice of a god' He laughed even more and looked at him with a fairly manly yet kind face.
Yamato
He had a troubled expression once both Luna and Adriano told him it was his turn, he looked at the list of songs and wasn't really sure what too choose, finally after a bit of searching he decided on one song. He walked up to the microphone in a stiff manner and took a deep breath, "Okay, I'm ready" he said as he looked back at Luna and Adriano
I've gotten used to this super-natural-cataclysm-like madness that I mistake this daily life for peace
Shaken around by the rambling coaster, what is the thing I can't lose sight of?
Swallowed by the concept of fundamental equality, it feels like even my heart is an et cetera
I hate you, I love you; if you don't speak out clearly, you're no different from a doll
Some in the crowds of people moving through the night city streets seem happy and others seem lonely
The contrast skips around the music staff, and turns into song and rhythm
Marmalade & sugar song, peanuts & bitter step,
It's sweet and bitter and my head seems to be spinning around.
Let's head for south-southwest and keep the party going on, it will be a night to amaze the whole world
I feel fantastic; form a chain and reflect
Jostled by the reasoning of probabilistic rationality, would our music be reduced to just a tool?
Turn this way, don't turn your back on me; although that's not really a sound argument
When the festival music ends, some are still excited and some happen to burst into tears
They're probably the same, but to put it into words would be the silly
Saying this is the best, sugar song; saying this is happiness, bitter step.
Project the reasons we can't die over there
Even if you regret, tomorrow will still come at the same speed
When the mental weather forecast update is done
Someday, even if madness holds its breath,
Someday, even if reasonings lose their meaning,
Feeling song & step, the way our sound keeps on ringing out
Is the proof that shows we are what we are, QED!
Marmalade & sugar song, peanuts & bitter step,
Project the reasons we have to live on over there
The north-northeast lies behind; we can be proud the of distance we've come
Let's keep on amazing the entire world.
Marmalade & sugar song, peanuts & bitter step,
It's sweet and bitter and my head seems to be spinning around.
Let's head for south-southwest and keep the party going on, it will be a night to amaze the whole world
I feel fantastic; form a chain and become the reflection
Goes on; fun leaves, hardship leaves and fun comes again!
Luna
She giggled a bit From the way Adriano told yamato to share his godly voice. After He had gone up there and said he was ready, she smiled and pressed play in order for the song to start. She stayed there watching Yamato waiting to see his debut as a singer for the two of them.
Adrino looked at Yamato, and pushed the button. He couldn't wait to see how he could sing, despite not having a female voice, he hoped Yamato would show at the least some talent in singing. "Do Your best." Is what he said before Yamato began to sing.
Yamato
Still extremely nervous from singing infrot of the others he waited for the vocals to begin, he would have to look at the screen that displayed the lyrics since he didn't know them by memory. Once the time came he sang the words at the time they where meant to, after a bit he could feel himself loosening up and his nervousness fading away. As for his singing he didn't pay it too much attention, he just felt like he was keeping it as close as he could to the actual song.
Adriano was surprised, although Yamato didn't have the godly like voice he mentioned, he was still a good singer, now Adriano was afraid in sucking so badly in front of Yamato and Luna. "Oh please don't let me fail He then clapped his hands.
Luna
She clapped her hands as her ears was sticking out and she had a big smile on her face. She had so much fun hearing him sing "you did great!" She play's with a piece of her hair as she turned to Adriano "Your turn!"
Yamato
Even after the song finished he still had this strange feeling in his chest, was he happy or was it just the nervousness still there. He just felt like he wanted to do it again so once it was Adrianos turn Yamato started looking in the list of songs for which song he wanted to go with next, and pretty quick he found one. "Let's see you sing Adriano" he joked around raising his face from the book with the list of songs.
Adriano was getting really nervous and chose his song "I decided to use an American song, due to the singer, sounding almost exactly like me." He was trying his best to be formal. He got on stage and looked at Yamato and Luna, noding a yes, stating he was ready.
Think back to a time
When I still had so many answers to find
No worries were mine
All intentions and morals aligned
But the more I find myself remembering that place in my mind
The more I struggle to return to my pathetic life
And even though I cherish my prime
It’s hard when the sun doesn’t shine
I can’t go back
To live those dreams that were once my past
Have I lost my way counting down those days?
How will I cling to the memory?
Just make me innocent
I want my purity back
Cognitive dissonance
Keeps me from what I lack
I’ve fallen into a daze
Youthful hope replaced with mind-numbing haze
Wish I could relive the days
Portray the world before a childish gaze
I try to focus on the future but I’m falling behind
Now I feel sluggish and sedated, running out of time
And I don’t think can’t handle the truth, so bring me that fountain of youth
I won’t go back
I’ve lived my fears, now make this last
Have I lost my way counting down those days?
How will I cling to the memory?
