Who: Masami, Toru
What: Pre-Idol Panic
When: Just before the idol contest
Where: Backstage
Why: Because they both wish they were anywhere but where they are.

Masami sat in a secluded section of the backstage area of the idol contest, wrapped in a blanket. Why had she let her kendo teammates tell her what to do? If it had just been Hitomi it would've been OK, but Natsuko and Youko were... probably the ones responsible for signing her up in the first place. Those two and Miyuki had assured her that they had everything figured out, but they hadn't actually told her what their plan was until only a few hours ago... most likely intentionally, so she wouldn't have the time to change the plans.

So it was that Masami was dressed in what was essentially nothing more than a bikini top and a pair of really short shorts, though nobody currently could see it due to the blanket she'd appropriated to hide herself. She sipped some tea in an effort to calm down, but for once it didn't have very much of an effect. She could only hope nobody would notice her, and that they'd somehow forget that she was signed up for the stupid idol contest in the first place.

But since when had she ever been so lucky?

"...Retsu-senpai? R-really? The President? I-I guess that makes it a little better..." Toru gulped. Would he be able to avoid looking like a total idiot in front of competitors like that?

"It's still terrible that you're stuck like this... N-no student of Nanakamado ought to have to do something like this just because somebody else signed them up..."

It surprised Toru that Masami would apologize for such a thing, and it showed on his face. "In Kondo-san's... oh! N-no, that's fine! We were being mind-controlled and attacking you, right? It's only normal to want to knock out the big bad's flunkies before you kill it! In fact, were I in your situation, I'd have done the same thing!"

Masami started to say something back to Toru, but whatever it was wound up being cut off when a certain person swaggered up to them.

Shirou was dressed in that outfit he had worn before Ito-sensei's new gym uniforms had come in, and he looked just as ridiculous now as he did back then.

"Sakuraba-senpai! I almost didn't recognize you! I've been looking around all over for you! That wig really makes you look different! Oh, and hi to you too Ishinomori-san! Are you two both ready to go out there and amaze everyone? I'm pretty psyched..." Shirou just went on and on, without a chance for anyone to get a word in edgewise. After a long-winded monologue including several mentions of conviction and willpower, he finally ended it with his signature line.

"ALL RIGHT! I'M PUMPED NOW!"

If Toru was surprised then, he was now in full-blown shock. It wasn't enough for the world to inflict this competition upon him, apparently. It had to throw in Shirou, too. He found himself attempting to back away, only to run into the wall and flatten himself against it.

"O-oh, h-hi, Mizoguchi-kun! I, er... I l-like your costume!"

The speech made him figurative crumple for a bit. Shirou was just so... loud. But as it went longer, it actually inspired a bit of hope within Toru. This kind of stuff happened in anime, too, right? So it was that Toru responded.

"I think I'm pumped, too! Thanks, Mizoguchi-kun!"

Of course Masami's luck wasn't bad enough. No, apparently Shirou needed to be present. Naturally. While Toru flattened himself against the wall, Masami just wrapped her blanket more tightly around herself.

Sadly, unlike Toru, Masami wasn't quite as inspired by Shirou's speech. If anything it just made her want to disappear even more.

"Umm... Shirou-kun," she said, standing up. "Thanks for that speech but umm... Ishinomori-san and I were talking about Anti-Bullying Club stuff..."

"Sakuraba-senpai! I know you must be nervous about going out there and facing all those fans of yours, but take heart! Everyone loves you, Sakuraba-senpai! I'm sure you'll do a great job out there! I believe in you! And even if you don't believe in yourself, you can always believe in me, who believes in you!"

Shirou had apparently not noticed Masami's attempts to shoo him away at all. In other stunning news, the sun rose in the morning. Luckily(or unluckily), it looked like the show was starting.

"Hey, it looks like it's almost time!" Shirou said, before breaking out into some... strange English. "ARE YOU READY GUYS? PUT THE GUNS ON!" He turned and began heading toward the stage before turning back and adding a couple more random English lines. "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED! HERE WE GO!!!!!"
