arrow27-
Thank you too for reassuring me that Atsumina is forever there. Takamina is always awesome, and I'll always be a fan. Ah, Maeda won the best new actress award?! WOW that's amazing!!!!!
hidden_player- I am honestly really happy, you have liked Takamina more, because she is amazing. Haha. I always enjoy your encouragements in your comments. Makes me feel really motivated.
Thank you.
steftakami - I'm glad you like it!
I enjoy writing it.
Thank you for reading
kahem - Acchan's hatred towards Takamina is something that will not stay forever, even if she wants it too.
yuuzu05 - I'm so glad someone picked it up, it was deliberate. Because those words inspired me.
Ah...
Tanchan - Ah. Nonono. I don’t mind Takamina’s changes (as in growing up) at all and I admire and respect more than I've ever liked any other actor, actress, singer, etc. . I really do realize the big changes to her life due to her role but it’s just that Acchan isn’t with her….if you get what I mean. And about her keeping the stress and problems to herself is just one of the major points I love about her.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
But I can see you love Takamina a lot.
I'm really sorry to have stressed you with my comment.
Haruko - You want a boyfriend like Kai? Hahaha, that's so cute, but only because Takamina is so perfect that I can create this kind of Kai in my fic.
Sydney W- I will continue, as long as there are people reading, I will continue. Though school is coming up again, so the update might not be as quick.
Thanks for reading! I hope you'll enjoy the upcoming chapters aswell.
I really love replying to your comments

Chapter 5 – Live Debut Takamina looked around the streets of Akihabara, and just gleamed in pure ecstasy. Posters of anime and manga surrounded the walls and shops, and Takamina wanted nothing more but to jump into one right away and purchase the latest volume of One Piece.
She took her eyes off the shops and looked forward to see Maeda striding along the streets not paying attention to her bodyguard. Takamina had no excuse to walk beside her but that was all she wanted to do and as soon as she caught sight of a complete one piece store she ran forward and gently grabbed Maeda’s wrist.
Takamina pointed to the window flowered with one piece posters and life sized boards.”Isn’t this shop amazing?” The midget pointed to the comic displayed inside the transparent window, and gazed at it. I wish I had some money. Earlier when Takamina suggested she wanted to go shopping for clothes, Maeda surprisingly loaned the midget with 1500 yen. It was only 1500 yen, but Takamina was really happy, of course not because of the money, but because it was given, well loaned from Maeda.
Glancing at Maeda’s bored look as the actress looked elsewhere, Takamina brought herself up from her crouching position and smiled at Maeda. “Let’s go. What was that shop you recommended?”
Akihabara didn’t have many clothes shop as you would have imagined and therefore Maeda, wearing her huge sunglasses and a hat offered to lead Takamina to a decent shop where “normal” (as Maeda stated) clothes could be purchased.
Maeda walked ahead leaving a slightly lonely Takamina, who turned back to once again look at her newly claimed favourite shop.
They entered a mall and soon: “We’re here.” Maeda stated. “This is basically the only shop to sell normal clothing.”
Takamina admired the grand and sparkly, Ginza like shop and gulped softly before she stepped in.
Takaiiii- Takamina shouted in her head.
Takamina walked towards the male section and looked at the price tags on the belts, and to her dismay, her 1500 yen could not even afford half of what the belt costed. She sighed and walked towards Acchan who was busy wandering through the woman’s section glancing at the clothes.
“Oujosam-“ Before Takamina could start Maeda glared at her.
“What are you doing in the woman’s section? Don’t tell me you’re trying to subtly look through women clothing?”
Takamina was lost. Why would
she subtly look through women clothing? “Um…no? I just wanted to ask if I could perhaps, um visit another shop and purchase something there… instead” The midget scratched her head.
“Hmm, are these not to your taste? I’ll stay here.”
Takamina nodded. “Stay safe Oujosama.” She smiled which made Maeda madder.
Who does he think he is? I can be safe without him. (Will I see you tomorrow) Takamina exited the prestigious mall and looked at her watch, quickly running to the place she assumed would be Alley 209.
The alley was found at the end of two corners, the walls were covered in black paint and it seemed to be a desolated place. At the back, although it seemed like a dead end, there was brick poking out from the side and with that it would be easy for someone athletic to just jump over using the help of the brick.
Takamina made preparations for her attack and once she got an overall feel to the area ran back into the mall and spotted Maeda surrounded by a bunch of paparazzis. With no thought at all, the midget doved in the crowd of paparazzi’s and grabbed Acchan’s wrist, hoping to pull her out. However the crowd wasn’t making it easy, and Takamina was afraid Maeda would get hurt if it was forcibly done.
As a result the midget let go of Maeda’s wrist and jumped above the crowd with a running start and landed on the table inside the circle of paparazzi’s which Acchan clinged onto. She then grabbed Acchan, held her in a bridal style and jumped away. It was only then, Takamina realized this would be on entertainment news and would be a new scandal to Acchan’s life.
Acchan did not care much about scandals, after all they were scandals, and all she needed was her most loved ones to believe her words. To her that was enough. But having the world see her with what she thought was the “worst kind of guy” was something unbearable. However, even those thoughts clouded her mind about her bodyguard, she still noticed the close proximity between her and the midget.
He looks kinda cool….. wait what am I thinking! This is stupid! They started running until they lost the crowd and Takamina instantly stopped and let the struggling Acchan jump off her arms.
Takamina bowed “Oujosama, I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking of the result of this. I’m really sor-“
“What took you so long?”
“I was well…um”
Maeda looked at the midget suspiciously and glared again. “You can’t even say what you were doing. Isn’t that suspicious? You know what you did and its none of my business” Maeda said, assuming that the midget performed ridiculous and dirty acts.
Takamina apologized once more. “Sorry for taking so long. I’m sorry for leaving y-” The midget looked into Acchan’s eyes and she walked forward, and placed her hands on the actress’s forehead.
“Are you feeling okay?” Takamina said as she felt the girl’s temperature increase. “Your cheeks are all red. Should I take you to the hospital?”
“N-No.” Acchan swiped Takamina’s hand off her and stumbled backwards, covering her mouth.
I stuttered… “Oujo-“
“Just stay away from me. I’ll be okay as long as you stay away from me.”
Takamina was about to protest but knowing that it’ll just make the princess more stressed she kept it back and nodded.
Again, the formation of Maeda walking a few paces in front with Takamina following occurred as they walked to the train station.
“I need to go to the bathroom so just wait here.” Maeda ordered as she briskly walked to the nearest train station toilet. Takamina’s eyes followed Maeda, making sure she would be safe.
I hope Oujosama’s okay…she seemed a bit depressed after that incident and a bit heated up, though it didn’t seem like she was getting a fever. The blonde walked into the shop next to the toilet after seeing a bunny phone keychain, quickly purchasing it with the money Maeda lent her. She swiftly stuffed the change and the keychain in her pocket before running back to Maeda who just came out of the bathroom.
“Are you feeling okay?” Takamina asked.
Maeda simply ignored the midget and walked ahead.
Stupid Kai. (Will I see you tomorrow?) Yuko finished the interview concerning the latest horror movie she starred in and walked into the room where Kojiharu was waiting for her to return.
She had planned to run and jump onto the tall bodyguard as soon as she opened the door except she found Riku fast asleep on the couch, holding a towel and bottle of water.
Yuko smiled and walked closer to the oblivious red streaked boy. She leaned her head into him and lightly planted a kiss on Riku’s lips. “Nyan Nyan…” She murmured softly, causing Kojiharu to turn and shuffle on the coach.
“Cut-“
“Takamina…” Kojiharu purred.
Yuko’s eyes widen as an unknown name flowed out from her bodyguard’s mouth. Ignoring all the negative thoughts, Yuko, like her positive self went back to assume positive reasons for that certain name to have been called out of the sleeping girl.
Like, Takamina was the name of her cat.
Or, dog.
Or, Goat.
While Yuko was thinking of the list of reasons, the sleeping girl murmured something else, something that shocked Yuko even more.
“Takamina…I love you.”
Fear stabbed the perverted squirrel like girl, and unsteady tears started dripping from her eyes.
“I’m crying?” Yuko claimed as she furiously wiped away the waterworks from her eyes. “What. Hahaha, what am I doing?” Yuko staggered backwards and eventually fell to the ground, covering her face.
“Who is Takamina…Nyan nyan ”
At that time Kojiharu woke up from her siesta, rubbed her eyes she saw Yuko and her red puffy eyes, which immediately brought her back from her dreamland.
“Y-Yuko?” Kojiharu asked as she walked to the girl. “Have you been crying?” She said slowly touching the red part with her thumb.
“Hahaha, I’m just tired.” Yuko claimed as she slowly took Riku’s hand from her cheeks and held them tight. “Don’t worry.”
“How can I not? I’m your bodyguard.”
I want to be more than just your bodyguard. Yuko nodded and grinned. “Too bad you don’t have your 'body-guard'.” She smirked and jumped on top of her bodyguard giving her a passionate kiss.
“Kya, Y-Y-Y-uko!!! Too close.” The disguised girl yelled as she pushed the girl away.
“Kya?” Yuko asked.
“I mean, HA.” Kojiharu said, her face red from Yuko’s advances.
“Whatever you say. By the way, are you guys prepared for your live debut tomorrow?”
“Debut?....Oh, that one. No, we aren’t ready at all.” Kojiharu calmly stated.
Yuko frowned. “Riku, I don’t want you to mess up…”
The airhead girl smiled and patted the shorter girl. “Will you come to see us?”
“Yes! Definitely! So you better give me an amazing show.”
(Will I see you tomorrow?) The three spies were waiting patiently up on the roof and looking down the alley in which they could see the trading of drugs and money. Their hair was with no wig, and they were back to their normal selves. They had locked the door to their room and said to the girls that they needed quiet time in order to write their new song. Takamina, who didn’t check her phone, got the news from Kojiharu, and she was worried. But the thought of Maeda feeling unwell, and the scandal that might occur happened clouded her mind.
It's all my fault Maeda's feeling sad. Why did I leave her? I should've never left her side. I'm so stupid. Waiting for a good time, Mii chan jumped from the roof and landed on one of the drug dealers’ head. “You’re all under an arrest for the use of illegal drugs.” Mii chan smirked and handled all the gang members, none having the time to escape.
Up from the roof, Takamina and Kojiharu applauded.
“We weren’t even needed.” Kojiharu added,
“Wow, Mii chan! ” Takamina stated, her eyebrows curled in worry. Of course she wasn't doubting her sister's skills and ability but that was...
That was almost too easy. She held her older sister back from jumping down the roof. “Stay here and don’t jump down, she said as she proceeded to meet Mii chan.
“Mii chan. That was cool.” The midget exclaimed, while she grabbed the video cameras she had installed.
The sounds of the police siren sounded and the three spies ran off into the darkness and back into their rooms from their window.
“That was one of the easiest mission ever!” Kojiharu sighed as she leaned back onto her bed, after taking a fulfilling shower.
Takamina nodded, still in thought as to how they could’ve handled that so easily. It was almost if it was all an…act…for them. The midget scratched her chin and lied on Kojiharu’s bed.
However the midget was thrown from her thoughts as the older sister shook the midget. “Do you have any idea what song we should do tomorrow?” Their leader froze and sighed. Even though Takamina had no idea that they were doing a debut until 2 hours ago, she had been doing some thinking of this concern aswell.
“You know the song we sort of started during our high school years, when you and Mii chan had a crush on the same boy??” Takamina asked, but when she turned to look at Kojiharu, she was already spacing out causing the midget to laugh.
“You tired?” Takamina asked as she rubbed the older girl’s back. “You haven’t spaced out for a long time.”
Haruna blushed and nodded. “Just a bit.”
Takamina nodded in reply. “Get some sleep, leave the rest of the lyrics to me.” The midget said as she hit her chest with convection.
She was too kind, too kind for her own good.
“....Hey Takamina, what would you do if someone you never thought told you they l-loved you…in that way…” Kojiharu said in a voice which almost seemed like a whisper.
“W-What kind of question is that? I-I’ll never be told that…." Takamina looked at Kojiharu's curious and deep gaze and answered truthfully.
"...But no matter who it is it might be, I’ll respect it. I’ll actually be really happy.” Takamina smiled.
“I’ll be happy.” She repeated, causing her older sister to blush harder.
Suddenly the bathroom door burst opened and there stood Mii chan. “I got it! Why don’t we do the song we sorta made during our school days. 3 seconds!!!”
For the rest of the night the three siblings wrote their songs and created their stage name, Persona. Mii chan was in charge of the lyrics. Takamina the dance movements and music sheets, and Kojiharu was in charge of the melody.
Even thought they were tired, they had fun and it felt to them that they were back to their school days.
(Will I see you tomorrow)Persona spent the whole off the Saturday, practicing and performing their song. They also borrowed instruments from Akimoto Yasushi’s music room, with Takamina playing the guitar, Mii chan the bass, and Kojiharu the keyboard.
The four sisters plus the remaining bodyguards who were invited to their performance were now sitting in the living room watching TV and sharing thoughts.
“Acchan…Acchan… Acchan!” Yuko screamed.
For the whole morning Acchan had been spaced out, and her left hand would stay in her jacket pocket plus her gloomy mumbling hadn't stopped since the morning. Seriously, her sisters were getting worried.
“Acchan…what’s wrong?!” Tomochin asked, her voice full with concern.
Mariko looked at her sister and smirked. “OMG, Kai fell down the stairs!!!”
At once as if a switch was turned on, Acchan rose up immediately and her eyes widen. “What! Wher-“
Realising Kai was nowhere near, her head turned in anger at her sister’s laughing. “Mari!”
“You do care about Kai! Acchan~” Yuko said as she jumped onto her sister and hugged her. “You, Tsundere.”
The red on Acchan’s face began to develop and she pushed the smirking squirrel away. “I hate him, and that’s not ever going to change!..And I’m not a Tsundere.”
On the other hand, Tomochin and Sato Takeru were not amused by the conversation. Both of them knew Acchan was warming up to Kai, meaning the switch of bodyguards might not occur.
Sato Takeru spoke up. “Maeda san, Kai seems like a good guy.” He smiled his fake gentleman smile.
Maeda turned to look at the masculine man and frowned. “Even, you think he’s a good guy? Are you serious? I’m just wishing for next week to come. “ Maeda sighed and her hand clenched the item in her pocket
(Will I see you tomorrow?) “Hi, my name’s Kasai Tomomi, and I’ll be your manager from now on.” The mature girl said as she shook Persona’s hands.
The gang was now in their makeup rooms getting ready for their big debut performance, each one of their hearts pounding with anxiety and fear. They had never performed behind on stage and to make things worst, they were exhausted.
Takamina held both her sister’s hand and clenched them, even though hers were shaking the most.
“Kuu, you’re finally getting the screen time you’ve always longed for, and Riku, you're our Persona leader right? You can do this. If three of us are together like this, we can do anything right?”
The two sisters nodded in silence. They really really loved their sister, I mean how could they not, they could feel the nervousness Takamina was feeling, but despite that she still managed to replace their anxiety with warmth.
“You ready, Persona?” Kasai asked.
“OSU!”
They ran up the stage with their formal gear and looked around to find that they had an audience of seven, plus the daughters and bodyguards. They were all dressed casually and had big sunglasses and cough masks on to avoid public recognition.
“I’m Persona’s Riku.” Kojiharu started knowing she was the leader of the group. The aura of airhead Kojiharu had changed to a real confident singer. The two other sisters inwardly smiled. Out in the small crowd, Yuko squealed as she saw how cool looking and hot the Riku she was seeing was.
“I’m K-Kaii” Takamina followed, taking a soft gulp as she stared at the stares.
“ Hey! I’m Kuu.” Mii chan said excitedly as she waved to the crowd. Mariko smiled as she saw the instruments they were going to use.
The crowd remained silent except for Yuko’s loud squealing and Mariko and Tomochin’s clapping. Persona smiled awkwardly, knowing that it probably wasn't going to end well.
Looking awkwardly into the crowd, the three boys had no idea what to say next, and resorted to staring at the stares given from the crowd. As they were looking, Takamina’s eyes fixated on a certain man, who had his hands in his jacket pocket, the shape of his right hand seen outside the pocket made it seem like he was holding…a knife.
Just as fast as she realized, the man moved his other hand and touched the back of one of the teenage girls in the crowd.
“Ahh!” The girl screamed and turned around. “This man touched me!”
“What the hell, stop accusing things!” The man growled.
The crowd separated themselves from the girl and man and watched, feeling guilty as they had no idea what they could do. Mariko called the police subtly, with her sisters covering her from the eyes of the criminal.
Takamina walked from the stage and into the crowd where the commotion was happening. “I saw the whole thing.” She stared and as soon as the man made any sudden moments she, kicked the man’s shin. He groaned in pain and was about to take out his knife to realise that it wasn’t there.
Takamina grinned. “Looking for this?” She held the knife up with her gloved hand, and smiled.
“Heh.” The man returned his smirk, as his companions attempted to take a strike at the midget from behind which failed as before anyone’s eyes could make it, Kojiharu was already standing back to back with Takamina and holding the guy’s punch with one hand and attacking his stomach with the other.
“Thanks.”
“Any day.”
From the far end of the crowd, another companion was present and holding another girl hostage.
“L-Let, them go, or else I’ll shoot!” The man said as he held his gun to the girl’s temple, who shivered in fear. Her eyes were gleaming in tears and the man laughed.
“I guess this one’s for me.” Mii chan said under her breath, as she appeared behind the attacker giving him a hard and heavy blow to his neck. Mii chan sighed a breath of relief and checked if the victim was alright.
The sounds of police cars were heard and the three criminals were taken away, apparently they were the town’s three most wanted pedophiles. The crowd gave a loud cheer and applauds as the three boys made their way up the stage again. Their confidence boosted up and they smiled, excited to sing their song.
“I hope you all are alright.” Kuu shouted at the increased amount of people who gathered. The crowd replayed with a louder cheer and the boys smiled to one another.
“Here’s our song. 3 seconds.”
“sanbyou mitsumeru dakede “ Riku sang into the microphone while playing the keyboard. Yuko couldn't stop squealing and screaming, that Riku inwardly sighed every two seconds. He was happy though, really happy, to have someone cheering him on like this. "Nyan Nyan!!!! I'M YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN!" The smile on Kojiharu's face grew and seeing this, Yuko screamed even more. Her legs were wobbling due to the cuteness and hotness the guy was showing.
“otoshite mise youka” Kai continued, strumming the chords of her guitar. Beneath the big sunglasses, Acchan was continuously gazing at the hated blonde. But even though she kept telling herself that he was a jerk and the only reason she was looking at him was because she hated him, subconsciously, she thought the courage Kai showed before was something only something Kai could do. Despite that, Acchan also admired the courage Kuu and Riku showed and also had her eyes on all three of them. Kai was nothing special, just a lot more hated.
Tomochin on the other hand was only looking at the blonde, her heart was beating to the music, no maybe faster. Her hands covered her chest where her heart was located and she gave several cheers for Kai during the performance. Her eyes were full with love and admiration.
Kai didn't forget any of them, his eyes circled the spectators, thanking them for being here and each one of the Akimoto family and through his mind he thanked each single one for numerous reasons. When his eyes settled on Maeda, he felt a stab of guilt, and he mentally engraved in his mind that he needed to sincerely apologised to Maeda again for his mistakes during their shopping experience, and of course to ask if she was feeling better.
“omae no ai nante” Kuu followed plucking her bass strings. Kuu was having the time of his life, he had always loved and wanted more screen time. His overflowing energy reached the crowd and soon they were cheering louder than they already were.
The cool Mariko found herself swept along Kuu's energy and began cheering for her little bodyguard. Mariko really felt a connection with Kuu, and as their eyes met they stared harder at each other and their smiles widen. They both gave a quick giggle.
As they sang, the crowd increased, photographers were everywhere and everyone drowned in the song and the voice of the singers.
Behind one of the totem poles stood the top selling diva, Ray and her producer from the same company as Persona, Akimoto studios. “Sarukawa Keiji”
“What do you think Ray?”
Ray didn’t answer but her eyes focused intensely on the group, and a breeze of fear touched her.
They better not take over me and my place. (Will I see you tomorrow?) The sisters and bodyguards waited with Persona’s manager in their room, introduced themselves and conversed.
“Tomomi?”
The younger girl nodded.
“I’m Tomomi aswell!” The manager exclaimed as she shook the girl’s hand. “You’re really pretty Chiyuu.”
Tomochin stared and quirked her eyebrow. “Chiyuu?”
“Chiyuu?” The manager repeated with a confused tone.
Tomochin laughed and patted the other girls shoulder. “You’re funny. Nice to meet you.”
The manager blushed.
Sato Takeru stood by the door, and looked at the corner of the room, where Acchan was sitting. Her mind seemed elsewhere.
Acchan took the item out from her pocket revealing a bunny keyring. She looked at it and frowned remembering early that morning when she found it.
“That da- I mean shopping experience was terrible with that guy!” Maeda said to nobody as soon as she woke up. An annoyed expression appeared as soon as she realized that that was the first thing she thought of when she woke up.
STUPID KAI
Maeda did her daily morning routine and walked out of her room, expecting to see a crowd of bodyguards and her sisters sitting on the table, but instead only her sisters, Sato san, and Nakamura san were present.
“Good morning.” She briefly said.
“Good morning Acchan.”
“Good morning Maeda san.” Nakamura and Sato greeted with a smile.
Maeda gave a brief nod and walked into the kitchen, taking out her favourite cereal, and milk. She opened the box of cereal and poured it into the bowl, however the first thing that she saw was a key ring with a rolled up piece of paper stuck to it.
She held it up and looked at the cute bunny keyring, it looked so much like the drawings she does on almost everything. She smiled, and unrolled the piece of paper.
Hope you are feeling better.
Despite the short note, Maeda had a hunch of who it was from, and her lips unconsciously curled into a smile. [/i]
Maeda looked at the bunny in her hand and took out her phone; she slowly threaded it through and looked at the bunny dangling from her phone.
STUPID KAI
