One, two, three, four...!

Good. I have all the invitations I need for sharing!

Hehe. I bet Rin and the others are gonna be so surprised when they get invited to a show completely out of the blue.

(I took a bit of a break from doing shows to come up with new ideas and learn more about giving back to the fans...)

(But lately, the girls who made this place also just managed to get the ball rolling...)

Now that I'm done with my side dealings, I can get back to doing shows!

And since it's gonna be a special event, I really want Rin and the others there to see it.

Which is why I made these invitations...

Oh, wait a minute... While I'm at it, I could throw in a little twist.

Yeah! This'll be great!

(Oh, there's Miku!

I'm glad that I made sure to look up her show schedule.)

(Is the side entrance to the stage over there? I need to be as quiet as possible so that I don't interrupt or anything...)

Excuse me...

Okay, leave the gift and invitation here...

And we're all set!

Miku and the crowd look like they're really having fun! I'd love to be up there with her, but I still need to deliver invitations to everyone else...

That's a shame but I guess there's always next time.

Okay, MEIKO and Luka should be practicing somewhere around here...

Aha, there they are...!

Slowly... Make sure they don't notice you...

Hm? Was that balloon always there...?

What balloon?

Oh, the yellow one floating over there? It looks so cute♪

L-Luka...?

Look, MEIKO!

There's something tied to the end of its string!

Oh, you're right. Let's see... Invitations? For us? But it doesn't say who it's from...

Hehe. Maybe it's not necessary.

This balloon is a nice hint♪

Yeah, I guess so...!

Now it makes sense!

Hehe. He really likes pulling little tricks like this, huh?

I'm sure it all has to do with him wanting to spread hope and inspire everyone to see some wonderful dreams.

By doing this, the anticipation level for his show rises and makes it just that much more exciting.

That makes perfect sense too!

Next is my last one.

She should be practicing here somewhere...

Eep!

Huh? Was that...?

Ow...

I feel again. During the same part too...

Okay, one more time!!

One, two, three, four!

...

(That step sequence looks so tough, but she's not backing down from that challenge...)

Turn here and... Wah!

(Uh oh... I hope she didn't twist her ankle just now...)

No! Why can't I do it?!

I thought I had it just now!

(Thank goodness. She's okay.

But I still feel worried...)

(Maybe I should go and stop her instead of leaving this invitation behind...)

No, I've gotta keep trying...

Huh...?

I'm gonna be a great idol just like Miku and the others. I wanna sparkle the way they do!

And...!

I want to be able to help Minori and the girls more! I want to be there for them!

Okay, again!!

One, two, three, four!

Rin...

*Huff*... *Huff*... I...

I did it... I did it!

Phew... I'm exhausted...

Huh?

Is someone there...? I could've sworn that I heard somebody applauding just now...

There's something on top of my towel too. Lemme see... Oh, I'm being invited to see a show!

Haha. Only one person I know would do something like this!

Rin managed to figure it out all on her own.

(They're all so dedicated and work so hard to be the best idols they can.)

And I'm gonna put on a show that makes even them jump for joy!

I'm gonna give it everything I have!
