Jiro POV
The Clubhouse has been a success so far, many of my friends have even hosted concerts already, mainly Happy Around.
While doing some work on the computer about pantry replenishment, my computer suddenly shows a picture of a space station.
Jiro: What the hell?
???: Ah, you must be DJ Noir. A pleasure to meet you.
Jiro: Who is this? How did you access my computer?
???: What is your secret to creating a DJ Unit?
Jiro: Answer my question first.
Lumina: I just following your IP address, don't worry I'm not gonna leak any of your personal information...now answer my question.
Jiro: You've got a name?
???: Lumina Ichihoshi.
Jiro: Well, Lumina-chan I'm not the best person to ask. We were friends before we started.
Lumina: Hmm okay, I'll keep in touch...
Jiro: And she is gone...
Aoi: Excuse me.
Jiro: What's Boppin?
Aoi: I came to see if you are ok.
Jiro: I'm doing alright.
Aoi: Any sharp head pain recently?
Jiro: I still get it from time to time.
Aoi: Just making sure.
Jiro: What are you, my big sis?
Aoi: That's funny, speaking of which she's here with her friends.
Airi: What's this? You built a new place and didn't invite me?
Jiro: I've left keys in your room.
Airi: I'm just yanking your chain. Mom has a message for you.
Jiro: Oh?
Airi: She said Arisugawa is receiving two students into your class tomorrow.
Jiro: Alright I'll make sure to show up tomorrow.
Airi: So, what's the deal with this place?
Jiro: Hangout, practice, it doesn't matter feel free to use this space.
The Next Day
Arisugawa Academy: 9:00 am
Jiro: Alright settle down! I'm here, which means the class is about to begin.
Class: Good tidings Sensei!
Jiro: To you girls as well. Now then attendance.
Few names later...
Jiro: So I have some announcements. The class will be going on a field trip to Enoshima next week, make sure to get your permission forms signed. It's our class this week responsible for tending the exotic plant garden. And lastly, two new students will be joining our class.
Haruna: I volunteer to show them around today.
Jiro: Thank you Haruna, but they will be running late today. Tomorrow for sure.
Miiko: Yay! New friends!
Miyu: I do hope they would like to join us for tea.
Jiro: Now then, on to the Subject: Japanese history.
Kurumi: Aww, I suck at history...
Miyu: I will try to help as much as I can.
Jiro: Miiko, what was the event called when the US came to Japan to tell them to come out of isolation?
Miiko: The Perry Expedition!
Jiro: Amazing! Now then next question...
After School
Faculty Office: 4:35 pm
Head Nun: Amano-san the new students arrived just moments ago. They will be waiting for you in the guidance office.
Jiro: Alright, I'll extend them every curiosity.
Head Nun: We apologize again for making you stay late.
Jiro: Oh that's alright, anything I can do to make this go smoothly?
Head Nun: Keep an open mind.
Jiro: What's that mean?
Head Nun: You'll see...
As I made my way to the Guidance Office, the Head Nun said I should keep an open mind. Does she mean that these two might be a handful or something they do that I should consider? Who knows? As I open the door I saw an interesting sight.
Jiro: Ladies I'm sorry for the wait- Oh... am I interrupting something?
???: Mmph!
???: Uhh...
Jiro: I could give you a few minutes if you like.
???: No, please it's ok.
Jiro: Alright, please let me introduce myself. My name is Jiro Amano. I'm a Teaching Assistant here or TA. I'll be in charge of your class.
Tall Girl: My name is Hayate Tendou. It's good to meet you Sensei.
Short Girl: I'm Kokoa Shinomiya, a pleasure to meet you.
Jiro: Now I should say that I attend Yoba Academy. I'm only 17 years old, about the same age as you two.
Hayate: That's impressive. A student and a teacher.
Jiro: It's getting late so here are your schedules, your class is on the second floor, room 217. You're free to go home.
Kokoa: Sensei!
Jiro: Oh and by the way, when outside of school or after hours just call me Jiro.
Kokoa: Jiro-san, about what you saw earlier. Hayate and I are dating each other, I know it may come as a surprise.
Jiro: I have a couple of relatives who are like you two, my views are very progressive.
Hayate: Thank you for considering our feelings.
Jiro: No, I get it. I'm in a relationship as well.
Kokoa: Who's the lucky partner?
Jiro: Hehe, you'll meet her eventually. I'll see you two tomorrow.
Hayate: Goodbye Jiro-san.
Kokoa: What a considerate boy...
Hayate: Yep, he sure is.
Amano: Residents: 4:10 pm
Saki POV
Jiro: Guess who's home?
Airi: The house cook?
Saki: What's for dinner?
Jiro: Not even a "Hello Jiro how who's work?"
Saki: Welcome back Darling.
Jiro: Heh, thank you. Uhh, what do we have in the fridge?
Airi: Fish fillets, salad, and corn tortillas.
Jiro: Fish Tacos is then.
Airi: I can help.
While preparing Dinner, I was still feeling confused about my current situation. How can this world be real... I always wished I can change the past... but now I can?
On top of that, every time I look at Miyu, I feel like I'm supposed to be with her and not Saki.
Airi: Something on your mind?
Jiro: Oh you know, this and that.
Airi: Like what?
Jiro: Sakura and Saki already don't like each other.
Airi: I mean I always thought you'll end up dating Sakura, here you are with Saki. Who do you love more?
Jiro: Saki, of course, I love her cute tendencies and personality. But why do I feel something about Miyu and Sakura?...like they mean more to me than my other friends.
Airi: You and Sakura were always called the "married couple". Miyu seems the odd one out though.
After dinner, I went into my office to come up with another lesson plan for tomorrow's class.
Jiro: I should do the topic of future aspirations and old aspirations.
*computer suddenly turns on*
Lumina: DJ Noir!
Jiro: Oh it's the "Space Idol"...
Lumina: That's a sick nickname! Anyway, I heard that Nova is making a comeback.
Jiro: We are, what's it to you?
Lumina: Hey now, is that how you treat your fans?
Jiro: You hack into my computer just to talk to me... some fan you are.
Lumina: I need a DJ Unit...can I join yours?
Jiro: We're full, how about I'll help form one?
Lumina: You will?!
Jiro: I'll see who I can find to schedule a meeting. Be well.
Lumina: Bye Noir!
Flashback Yesterday-

While using the elevator I was joined by a first-year student... Kaibara I believe her name was.
Jiro: Hey, do have the time right now?
Kaibara: Oh, it's 10:02.
Jiro: Thanks.
*elevator conversations always get awkward*
Jiro: Nice weather we're having... o_o
Kaibara: Yeah it's not bad...
*Elevator Ding*
Jiro: Well that's something, see you around.
Back to the present...
Lumina's Studio: 3:30 pm
While inside a nicely decorated and well-equipped studio, adored with an outer space theme, I was meeting the so-called Space Idol who was hacking into my computer.
Jiro: So are you gonna show your face or through a screen?
Lumina: It's not time for me to show my face yet!
Jiro: Come on, show yourself, or I will leave.
Lumina: Fine! There you go!
Jiro: Hello.
Lumina: Wow... you're much more handsome in real life.
Jiro: Thanks, but I have a girlfriend.
*door opens*
???: We're here Lumina!
Lumina: The others?! *hides*
Jiro: What the?!
Kaibara: Oh hey Senpai.
Jiro: Who are you again?
Kaibara: Michiru Kaibara, you asked me what was the time yesterday!
Jiro: Oh yeah right.
Kokoa: There's a familiar face.
Hayate: Good afternoon Jiro-san.
Lumina: Now down to business! I want to create a DJ Unit with all of you!
Michiru: Really?!
Lumina: Yes, and with DJ Noir here, we'll be unstoppable!
Jiro: Whoa, hold up. What do you mean by "I'm here?"
Lumina: Oh you'll join us of course.
Jiro: Uh no.
Lumina: What...
Kokoa: Yeah, why not?
Michiru: Please, Senpai join us.
Jiro: I've got NoVa already.
Hayate: Then can you tell us anything to help us start?
Jiro: Discuss roles. Who's gonna sing, The DJ, The VJ, backup singer? That sort of thing.
Lumina: Then next identity right?
Jiro: Correct...how about you come to the NoVa performance tonight. It will give you some inspiration.
Club Nova
After Performance: 6:00 pm
Michiru: Haa, Jiro-senpai was so dreamy.
Kokoa: Yeah, what do you think Hayate?
Hayate: We can do this.
Lumina: Alright, let's meet up with Noir!
Jiro: Looking for little old me?
Sakura: You must be the girls Jiro is assisting!
Hakuro: Stick with Jiro and you'll make it.
Futaba: Of course, you'll only get so far when against us...
Lumina: Says the one riding his coat tail.
Futaba: What did you say to me?
Jiro: Must you start beef with anyone you meet?
Futaba: I have beef? With who?
Jiro: Shinobu, Muni, Noa, and Abyessmare that you and Hakuro had painted a target on our backs.
Futaba: Nothing wrong with friendly competition.
Hakuro: Where's your fight Jiro?
Jiro: I still have some fight in me you, backwoods hillbilly ass.
Sakura: Might I suggest a name for all of you?
Lumina: What is it?
Sakura: Unichord, the name we came up with before NoVa.
Michiru: Unichord... yes that's a good name.
Hayate: It's settled then.
Hakuro: How about we go into the studio to help you get started?
Futaba: In terms of the Nova rebrand. We don't have to adhere to the vision of an agency. We all wanted black and white colors for our outfits. Uhhh a light and dark fantasy theme.
Lumina: Is that why you where different outfits? Cute for the girls and bold for the boys?
Sakura: Yep, Hakuro here even draws us for his VJ displays.
Michiru: You mean the action pictures during your performance?
Lumina: That's pretty sick!
Kokoa: Why don't you be a manga illustrator?
Jiro: I've been saying that for years now.
Hayate: All in all, the VJ should provide a colorful show.
Futaba: That's right!
Sakura: Alright...next up...
*Phone vibrates*
Jiro: Who's this?
Neo: It's been a while Jiro...
Jiro: What do you want?
Neo: Come by the hotel near Tokyo Station I'd like to speak with you. Come alone.
To be continued...
