'Wait Back up for a sec'
Miki PoV
"I... I... I don't know." I said as I let go of the printed paper on my hand.
"Thats ok son, you don't have to rush yourself, look at your sister Hanako it took her awhile to know what she wanted to do with her life, now she's happy." My father said.
"Yeah but sister has always been smart... I'm not... all I'm good for is dancing amd singing." I said with a sad tone.
"Yes and we all love you for it, especially both your sisters, Hanako adores your singing and Anju loves the way you dance, don't sell ypur talents short Miki, your special in your own way." My mom said as she gave me a hug and a kiss on the head.
"Thanks guys... you know... maybe going here wouldn't be so bad... but I still need some time to think." I said.
"Take all the time you need." My dad said.
I gave them a smile and took off towards my small dance studio.
After a short walk I finally arrived in the studio where I began setting up my stuff, I placed my camera near me, and assembled my Microphone, thats right no dance video today, I'll be singing a song that I composed a few days ago called 'inferno'.
After I finished setting up my stuff I placed my wolf mask on my head and pressed record.
"Hi guys its me Promethius, this time I wanna share a song with you guys that I was working on for awhile, this will be the first song that I will sing that I also composed... so please go easy on me, also according to YouTube statistics only 16% of you that watch my videos subscribe, so if you can please hit that button and subscribe to the channel, its free and you can always change your mind, ok on to the video."
I then played the instrumentals from my laptop as I began to sing my song 'Inferno'.
"A light unto my darkening
Illuminate the path
Of old familiar days
Now I stay content living a dream
Am I becoming lazy
Living careless and free?
It's a light unto my darkening
What happened to the comfort
Of the streets that we walked?
Now the cold at time is
Worse than it seems
But we can light a fire
And we'll fight it
Now we can find a way
Through the fire and the flames
Now it's burning in my heart
Just like a melody
Now there is no forever
I've been told we'll fade away
So laugh in every day you get
Don't let it go to waste
So if your light is fading
From the shadow of a doubt
We'll light the sky
With our
Inferno
We'll keep marching right until
Our fire's burning out
Now at what point did we stop it all?
And now that you're not moving
You feel like you can't fall
But a still flame doesn't burn at all
We gotta keep the fire burning
Hotter, hotter
I can taste it it's so close to me
But in the end you take your time
Then it'll soon rot
Though it might feel like
It's burning down
The scars you wear
Remind you that you made it
Then we'll evaporate
As we rise up to the sky
In my hands I will protect
These precious memories
As we're walking down this road
We'll look up and start to fly
You will never be alone
We work in harmony
Now there is no forever
I've been told we'll fade away
So laugh in every day you get
Don't let it go to waste
So if your light is fading
From the shadow of a doubt
We'll light the sky
With our
Inferno
We'll keep marching right until
Our fire's burning out
I'm not afraid
To keep the fight going
Sometimes you keep on
Feeling your pain
I saw the
Fire in your eyes burn
Stronger inside you now
Burning brighter
Every single day
There might be no forever now
So what we're bound
To burn and fade away?
So treasure every day
Don't let it go to waste
So if your light is fading from
The shadow of a doubt
We'll light the sky
With our
Inferno
We'll keep marching right until our
Fire's burning out!"
"Ok that was a great take, lets do a few more." I said as I played the song again.
After about 1 hour and a half I finally finished recording and began packing my stuff.
Instead of going straight home I decided to go around the city to clear my mind for a few hours.
I went to all my favourite places to dance amd have fun, the park, the skate park, the alleys and some abandoned places and old construction sites, but one thing was still playing in my mind like a vidio on loop, it was Hanlim... and if I should take it or not... I wanna be able to do music... to spread happiness through it... but I... I don't wanna leave my parents... My sister Hana told me to take care of them and Anju... this is so hard.
Suddenly I bumped into someone, I looled at who it was and to my surprise it was my korean teacher Mr. Han.
"Ah Miki-shi annyeong." He said with a smile.
"Ah Annyeong Mr. Han, fancy meeting you here." I said.
"Ah well I got bored at home, and you? If I recall correctly you usually go around dancing at the park at this time." He said.
"Wow Mr. Han how'd you know?" I asked the teacher.
"The grocery store I go to passes the park, I often see you there dancing." He replied.
"Oh I see." I said.
"Is something wrong Miki?" He asked with concern.
"N-no... everything is... fine." I said with a forced smile.
"Come on I know something is troubling you, it maybe good for you to say it tather than keeping all that worry in you." He said as he placed his gamd on my head.
"... My parents... wanted me to go to a music school in Korea called Hanlim." I said.
"Oh wow Hanlim is a great school for arts, you would DEFINITELY learn alot from them." He said.
"But... I don't want to leave my life here behind... my friends.. my family... and everyone." I said with a sad tone.
Suddenly I felt a light karate chop on my head, I looked up and saw Mr. Han smiling at me.
"You make it sound like your never gonna come bach here, listen no matter where you go your family will always be there to support and love you, if they are willing to send their only son to an unfamiliar place to study then that means 2 things 1.) they hate you so much that they wannaget rid of you as soon aspossible or 2.) -which is the MOST plausible answer- They wanna be there when you finally reach your dream, they want what YOU want, and as for your friends if they don't support you they that means they aren't real friends." Mr. Han said.
"I see what you mean Mr. Han... thank you for the advice, thats why alot of us students have you for a favourite teacher." I said with a grin.
"Am I actually your favourite for how I teach or the fact that I give away free Kpop merch to those who get a perfect score intest?" He asked.
"I never had a perfect score in class sir." I replied.
"True hahaha, well if you do decide to ho there then you better start studying Korean, Summer break starts in a few more days, use that time to study more got it Ace?" He said.
"Got it sir." I replied as we went our separate ways.
After that little talk with Mr. Han I went to my favourite place to think, it was an old construction site with a great view of the city, I sat near the edge as I replayed what Mr. Han said to me.
Suddenly something cold touched my cheek and I yelped in surprise, I looked to my side amd saw Amy and Damien looking at me with a smile.
"Klondike for your thoughts?" Damien said as he offered me a Klondike bar.
"You guys scared the living daylights outta me." I said as I grabbed the ice cream.
"Sorry bout that Miki." Amy said as they sat beside me, Amy on my right and Damien on my left.
We were eating our ice cream in peace when suddenly Damien bagan to talk... and he sounded serious.
"So... yor parents told us that they wanted to send you to Korea to study." Damien said.
I suddenly stopped eating and lowered my hand.
"Yeah... but I am still thinking if I want to or not." I replied looking at the view.
"Dude there is nothing to think about... just do it." Damien said with a smile.
"Yeah, your already a great dancer, singer, and composer, if they can teach you better stuff then wouldn't that be more beneficial for you?" Amy said.
"Wait you guys aren't mad at me?" I asked.
"Miki what kind of friends would we be if we got mad at our best friend for follow his dream?" Amy replied.
"Yeah dude, have a little more faith in us, yeah?" He said.
"You guys are the best." I said as I pulled them in for a hug.
""We know."" They replied in unison as we sat there for a bit more.
A few hours later
Location: Home
I walked inside the house to see my father and mother sitting on the couch watching TV, as soon as I entered the house they looked at me with smiles on their faces.
"Something tells me you have your answer already." My dad said.
"Yeah." I replied with a smile.
"And, what do you wanna do son?" My mom asked.
I simply smiled and gave a thumbs up.
1 month later
"Are you sure you have everything, your passport, toothbrush, clothes, and your phone and laptop is it all there?" My mom frantically asked.
"Mom I got all of them here don't worry." I replied.
My family and I are currently infront of the airport where my flight to Korea will be departing soon, I have a long flight infront of me and my mom is already starting to get sad about my departure.
"Hon let Miki go, he's gonna be late." My dad said.
"Ok... but once you land, call me ok?" My mom said.
"HAI!" I gave a salute as she gave me a tight hug.
"HEEEEEEEEEY MIKI!" I suddenly heard shouting, I looked past my parents and saw Damien and Amy -along with a few other friends- running at me.
"GUYS!" I called back as I met them half way.
"What are y'all doin' here?" I asked them.
"Were here to see ya off." Amy said.
Suddenly 2 of my other male friends pulled out a banner that had the words 'GO MIKI, WE'LL MISS YOU!' on it.
"Guys... I'll miss you all too." I said as I tried my best to hug them all at once. Isaid.
"We know so get to the plane before you end up missing it you girly boy." Damien said.
"Well f**k you to man haha!" I said as I gave min a light punch.
"Hahaha!" They laughed.
"Well guys... its gonna be a long time... but I promise to see y'all when I can." I said to them.
"We know." Damien said as the two of us did our secret handshake.
"Son time for you to." My dad said.
I nodded and began walking towards the airport, with one last glance behind me I saw my family and friends waving goodbye at me with smiles on their faces as I did the same.
Suddenly my phone received a text, I looked at who sent it and saw that it was my older sister Hanako.
It read
-You took a big leap towards your dream, and big sister will always have your back, when you arrive there a friend of mine will take you in with her, I know how independent you are but your still a minor, she'll be waiting for you at the airport, I think you'll like her, love you always little bro.-
"So thats why mom and dad said not to worry about the place I should go." I said as I began to wait for my flight.
1 hour later
"Flight 0766 to South Korea is now boarding, please head to your designed gates, I repeat Flight 0766 is now boarding." The announcer said.
I then got up and wheeled my luggage along towards the gate.
After dropping off my luggage and confirming my passport I was finally able to board the plane.
While waiting I began listening to some of the songs I have written to see if any of them needed some changes, suddenly someone sat beside me.
"Hello my name is Huening Kai, uhh guess we are in this long flight together miss." He said with a smile.
I suddenly became depressed and slouched forward with a defeated look on my face.
"I-Is something wrong?" He asked.
"Dude... I'm a dude too." I replied.
"O-Oh sorry dude, I didn't mean to offend you, let me start over then, my name is Huening Kai but just go ahead and call me Kai, and you what's your name bro." He asked.
"My name is Miki Wells, but my friends call me Ace, nice to meet you Kai." I replied as we shook hands.
"Miki Wells... that name sounds familiar... actually you look familiar as well... but where?" He said.
"I dunno?" I replied.
"Oh well, guess it's nothing." He said.
During the flight Kai and I began talking, turns out he was a trainee or something at an agency called BigHit which was BTS's agency as well, he showed me some dance videos while I let him listen to some of my songs like: Night Sky patrol, Ao to Natsu, and Grandeur.
"Wow your songs are amazing, I especially liked Grandeur, I like it alot." Kai said.
"Thanks, actually your like the 5th person to listen to my songs, only my parents and my best friends were the only people I allowed to listen to these." I said as I placed my laptop away.
"Well I'm honoured, hey you seem like a great singer and dancer, are you also a trainee?" He asked.
"Oh heavens no, I wanna sing, dance and compose songs but being an Idol or a singer sounds too much of a hastle." I said as I leaned on my chair while grabbing my 3DS.
"What? But your wasting your talent dude." He said to me.
"Nah bro, I ain't wasting if, I just don't want a camera pointed at me 24/7." I said as I loaded my pokemon Omega Ruby game and began playing.
"Why not?" Kai asked.
"Dude when you sat here about 8 hours ago you called me 'miss' what would a bunch of people think if YOU thought I was a girl but didn't correct you?" I replied while trying to catch a shiny Ralts.
"I see, so why ARE you going to Korea then?" Kai asked.
"To study, I wanna produce music, I wanna make songs and spread happiness with music." I said with a smile... because I caught the Shiny Ralts.
"Wow... guess that is a great profession as well... *yawn* wow I'm tired, I'm gonna sleep for the duration of the flight." Kai said as he grabbed a mask from his seat.
"Sure." I said as I continued playing.
Time skip
Kai and I finally landed on IIA, we were on the conveyor that brought our bags out, I found my luggage relatively quickly since it was the only bag with a wolf design on it, but Kai's luggage took a bit of time to come out.
After about 5 minutes he finally spotted it and we walked around together, suddenly he received a text message and we split ways , he went another way to meet his ride while I walked towards the front of the airport to meet my 'guardian'.
As soon as I walked out I saw a person holding a small sign that said 'welcome Miki Wells'.
She looked a bit older than my sister, has short bobbed hair, she also seemed luke a good dancer judging by how she stands.
[Everything now is in korean]
"Hello ma'am, are you the friend my sister mentioned?" I asked the lady.
"Yes, your Hana's little brother Miki, right?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am." I said with a smile.
"Great, my name is Lia Kim, nice to meet you Miki, or do you prefer Ace?" She said with a smile.
"Haha anything will do ma'am." I replied.
"Wow your korean is amazing." She said.
"Thank you I'm a very good crammer but I still can't understand somethings if people say it too fast." I said remembering the hellish 1 month and 2 weeks.
"Well you must be tired, come I'll take you to your apartment." Ms. Kim said as she helped me with my bag.
"Thank you ms. Kim I really appreciate it." I said as I followed her to her car.
"HEY!" I heard a call from behind.
Ms. Lia and I turned around and saw Kai getting down a black van.
"Kai?" I questioned.
"Hey dude, here's my contact, call me so we can hang sometimes." He said as he handed me a piece of paper.
"Sure, I'd be happy to." I said as I unconsciously gave a wide smile.
"-Blush- *ahem* Great, see ya Ace." He said as he ran back to his van.
"You know with your hair and petite figure people might've taken that scene out of context, specially the way you smiled." Ms. Kim said.
"... Damn it... I smile like that whenever I make a new friend." I said as I hung my head low.
"Hahahaha come on, lets go." Ms. Kim said as we went to my new home.
45 mins later
We finally arrived in a relatively... expensive looking building, Ms. Kim parked her carnear the front as she stepped out of her car while I did the same.
We walked inside the building and went to the 4th floor where ms. Kim opened the door to room 401, as soon as she opened the door I was met with a beautiful apartment that looked like it can cost an arm, a leg, and a kidney.
"Wow... can I afford this?" I asked.
"Don't worry this actually belongs to me, you can use it and while your studying here, also I actually have a job for you." Ms. Kim said.
"What kind of job?" I asked.
"Come with me." She said.
I did just that and began following her back to her car, we drove for about 15 minutes until we arrived in a well sized building that had the words '1 Million' on the front.
"Wait... 1 Million... Lia Kim... OH S**T!" I yelled as I finally remembered who she is.
"Y-Your Lia Kim... the famouse choreographer... I'm so sorry I didn't recognise you sooner!" I said as I gave a bow.
"Hahahaha its ok Miki, so shall we?" She said as she pointed towards the door.
"It would be an honour!" I said as I ran towards her side and went inside the building.
As we were walking inside people who passed by us people began to bow to ms. Kim and to me as well, so I replied with a how as well, it felt so surreal, I didn't know much kpop but I know who ms. Kim is, her choreographies were some of the best I've seen.
After a bit of walking we entered a room where other people were dancing happily to their music.
"Ok guys gather up." Ms. Kim said as everyone complied.
"This here is Miki Wells, his sister is a friend of mine, so as a favor to her I am letting him damce here." Ms. Kim said.
"... WHAT!?" I said in shock.
However the other people only clapped and cheered, and told me welcome.
"But there's more, any of you huys know the YouTuber Promethius?" Ms. Kim said.
Almost all of them raised their hands.
"Of course ma'am, he is an amazing dancer, actually I saw him singing his song a month ago, its called inferno and it's really good!" All of the agreed.
"I see... go on, promise we will not tell." Ms. Kim said.
"...Now we can find a way
Through the fire and the flames
Now it's burning in my heart
Just like a melody~
With the wait of the world, hi I'm the dance Youtuber Promethius, please take care of me!" I said as I sang parts of my song and bowed.
