Story 2
Chapter 4 - The Flame Residing in my Chest

==61: Start of Cooperative Offense==
61-1: Domestic Exchange Students
[Coming along with changes for new determination at Shinjugamine Girls School]
[There Kanon and Shiho of f*f are welcomed as domestic exchange students]
[~Shinjugamine Girls School Grounds: Gate~]
Shiho asks if Kanon has gotten used to the school. Pretty much...
Another student says bye, Kanon almost replies with their old school's phrase
Shiho points it out but Kanon claims it's because they're sudden exchange students.
Kanon wonders why they've transferred to Shinjugamine. Shiho says it's a temporary attempt.
Kanon is annoyed that Aoi-chan seemed happy about it, who said it'll be fun~
But that's how Aoi-sensei is and Shiho thinks they might be able to learn something here.
Kanon doesn't know what they can learn but an alarm goes off!
Irous are attacking outside of the city at noon and everyone is to show up to get ready
This will be their first fight since coming here. The other girls can defeat the new type of Irous
But if they're not told about other secrets...
Kanon is happy for the activities and will defeat all of them

61-4: Start of Cooperative Offense
Sensei asks if everyone is ready, with Itsuki stating this is the first time f*f and Hoshimori are cooperating together
Kanon and Urara call out their friend. They warn each other to not get in the way.
They continue to tell each other to get out of the way. Asuha asks them what they're doing, the battle has already begun.
Urara gets hit but Kanon steps in and fends the Irous off
Urara protests that it was her's. Kanon asks who decides that.
Shiho ara ara's and Hinata comments on how scattered they are
Kurumi worries if they can continue like this. Maybe if they're considerate...

61-7: Can't Leave it Be
[~Shinjugamine School Grounds: Lab~]
 Itsuki:
"JUST WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
"I'm aware that you have complaints about each other"
"However, during a battle you guys are partners"
"I'm not saying to become good friends immediately"
"But, please refrain from getting in the way of others from now on"
  Urara: "Sorry..."
  Kanon: "Sorry, there was no excuse for it"
They leave
 Itsuki sighs
  Botan: "They seem quite difficult to deal with"
 Itsuki:
"Director..."
"Was this really alright?"
"Even though it's a rare chance for each other to build a good relationship..."
"General combat power compared to before, seems to have fallen considerably"
 Botan:
"Despite not being Hoshimori, they have a similar power to Hoshimori..."
"We, Arc of the Stars..." 我々、星の箱舟としても…
"We couldn't very well leave Kougami Kanon and Kunieda Shiho like that"
 Itsuki: "Having said that, can't think of it as a good idea for them to stay fighting"
         "It would be good if they made use of their comparative strengths but..."
  Botan: "Indeed..."
         "Ah right, how is the other teacher getting along?"
 Itsuki:
"Nanashima-sensei? She has been very cooperative"
"Regarding the deployment location of Irous, thanks to her, the predictive accuracy has increased considerably"
"Realizing that sort of approach existed, had Fulan frustrated"
"Also for the incidents of disappearing girls, last time, we were successful in having the enemies withdraw..."
"Abduction numbers decreased, and there is a trend of number of girls found increasing"
"Of course, this might be a temporary effect but..."
  Botan: "Where will this situation end up...?"
         "All of it depends on the girls"

==62: One Sigh==
62-1: To Satisfy a Wish
Kanon is blaming Urara for them being mad, Urara insists it was Kanon
 Kanon:
"Ever since we decided to be prepared to fight..."
"We haven't gone a day without taking on every aspect of training"
"Regarding battle techniques we are further above so..."
"Every member of Hoshimori, should follow me and Shiho"
 Urara:
"In reality, since Urara's group has had much longer time fighting..."
"You should follow Urara's group"
 Kanon: "What did you say...?!"
 Urara: "What...!"
Kokomi pleads with them to stop arguing. They're in the same class so they should try to be friends...
Kanon doesn't think it's fine to stay like this. Urara too
 Urara: "But, this person, lacks honesty despite being an idol"
Kanon is surprised, she didn't think she'd bring up idols. She asks what Urara knows about idols
Urara was born to become an idol♪ In the future she's going to become an idol that gives love to everyone
 Urara: "To satisfy people's wishes, Hohsimori and idols are the same"
 Kanon: "You don't get it. Only satisfying wishes will have you becoming weary of it immediately"
        "A true idol, shows people new hope"
Urara gets cross, since it seems Kanon only ever complains about what Urara says. Kanon invites her to try something
Kokomi panics and tries to say something
Urara yells at her to speak up clearly if she wants to say something! Kokomi yelps!
Kanon tells Urara to not scare her and don't drag her into this. It's fine since Kokomi is Urara's rival.
Kanon says that's only what Urara is saying for her convenience. Kokomi yells at them to stop arguing about her
She pouts, unsure about what to do from now on.

62-4: One Sigh
Kokomi wants everyone to get along but she doesn't really know how
 Shiho: "If you only sigh, your happiness will run away" She offers a home-made cookie
After stopping her from being formal with her name, Shiho apologizes, since Kanon is rather stubborn
Kokomi informs her that Urara-chan is that type too.
But Shiho notices that Asahina-san and Hasumi-san get along well. Kokomi notices Shiho-senpai and Kanon-senpai get along very well
Kanon is Shiho's best friend. She looks scary, but Kanon-chan has a ton of cute aspects.
Like in the bath earlier...

[... ... ...]
Kokomi says Urara-chan has lots of kind aspects too. Like before, when Kokomi tumbled down a hill...

[... ... ...]
It's getting late! They got caught up with chatting...
So they forgot about the time, but Kokomi enjoyed talking with Shiho-senpai
Shiho is also glad she was able to talk with Asahina-san.
So surely sometime, Kanon-senpai and Urara-chan will be able to understand each other and become good friends
Shiho gives a token of acquaintance and asks that the other Hoshimori come watch
They're f*f concert tickets! Shiho was going to give it to her parents but they can't come due to work
So she was given a ton to invite friends. Kokomi is going to bring everyone of the Hoshimori!
That would make Shiho happy. She says goodbye and leaves

[... ... ...]
 Shiho giggles:
"Asahina-san, looks like she was happy"
"Looks like things are going to become fun from here on"
Kanon shows up. Shiho calls out to her
 Urara:
"Right! Had said that!"
"Idols have to take on even more people!"
 Kanon: "So, there's no need to put a limit on idols!"
 Urara:
"Fine! Got it if that's how you say it!"
"In this case, today..."
 Kanon: "Arguments until the end!"
Kanon has a smirk and leaves
 Shiho:
"Ah..."
"..."
"Kanon-chan... You're making that kind of face..."
"Even though I thought we would have a chance to eat these home-made cookies together..."
"..."
[She throws them away!] クシャッ！


62-7: As a Battle Friend
[~In front of the Concert Venue~]
 Miki:
"Wah~, this is the concert venue?"
"There's a ton of people outside too...!"
   Anko: "As expected of a place with very famous idols..."
  Renge: "Renge, is already heavy and can't move~"
   Anko: "GAH, YOU'VE BOUGHT A MOUNTAIN OF GOODS!"
 Subaru: "Being invited to such a nice concert..."
         "Really looking forward to it!"
Miki laughs...
 Haruka: "Miki, what's wrong?"
 Miki:
"Kinda have a weird feeling"
"At first it seemed scary, and I thought they were from a far world but..."
"Now, they've suddenly become our classmates"
"And because of that, we were able to see a few of their expressions that we never saw before"
 Asuha:
"Yes indeed..."
"Still haven't exchanged many words but..."
"In their own way, when they're fighting seriously, it shows well enough"
 Haruka:
"Yeah, since we got the chance to meet them like this..."
"Together as battle friends, I want to become better friends"
  Urara: "..."
 Hinata: "Hey hey, hurry let's go-!"
         "There's a booth over there too-!"
 Sadone: "Sadone, wants to eat taiyaki!"
   Miki: "Alright, everyone!"
         "Let's enjoy today as much as we can!"
Everyone: "Yeah!"


==63: No Matter Where Alone==
63-1: Stir of the Chest
[~Concert Venue: Green Room~]
Kanon asks Shiho if those girls are coming to watch. Yep.
It's pretty rare for Shiho to invite someone. It's a rare chance so Kanon wants to show them what they can do!
Shiho is silent. Kanon asks what's wrong.
Nothing, she's just a bit nervous. Kanon asks if she's alright.
She insist she's fine♪ She steps outside for a bit of air.
 Kanon: "Ah... Shiho"

Shiho sighs. Her chest is bothering her.
She's never felt this way before. She sighs
  Aoi: "What're you doing?"
       "If you only sigh, your happiness will run away"
Shiho: "Aoi-sensei!"
  Aoi: "Yahho~"
       "It's before your recital, what's wrong?"
       "Perhaps, it's the first time inviting me so you're nervous?" she plays it off like a joke
Shiho: "..."
  Aoi: "Ara, was that really it?"
Shiho: "Aoi-sensei..."
       "Actually..."

63-4: Anywhere Alone
Shiho: "Aoi-sensei..."
       "Actually..."
  Aoi: "In fact is Kanon around? A friend asked me to get a signature"
Shiho: "Right, Kanon-chan is in the green room..."
 Aoi:
"It's amazing how popular that girl is recently"
"Without knowing it, seems that she'll eventually be distant~"
"For me too but, it'll be difficult for Shiho to follow along"
"Since Kanon is the type to head anywhere alone"
Shiho: "Head anywhere alone..."
 Aoi:
"Well, that's also part of Kanon's charm isn't it"
"You too Shiho, do your best to not lose to Kanon!"
"So, looking forward to your recital~" She leaves
Shiho: "Ah..."
       "..."
[There's a sharp pain! ズキン！]
[Since Kanon is the type to head anywhere alone]
Shiho: "In time, she'll abandon me too and go somewhere..."
       "..."
       "...No, surely I'm thinking too much into it"
An audience member is looking forward to the concert~♪ Another wants to see Kanon-sama's dancing!
A third would definitely buy her solo single if she had one!
Shiho: "..."
      ::Maybe, I'm have a ways to go still...::
       "...Okay"
       "I have to get back in the mood..."

63-7: Connected Path
  Miki: "They've started!"
The crowd cheers!
Nozomi: "The energy is amazing...!"
Sadone: "Kanon and Shiho are glittering"
  Miki: "This is the leading idols..."
  Yuri: "With just this they can make a lot of people excited"
        "Likely a result of steady effort"

 Urara: "..."
Kokomi: "Urara-chan..."
 Urara starts giggling...
"As expected! Isn't it fascinating!"
"It's fine, here's some praise. As Urara's official rival!"
::A Hoshimori or a idol, recently, have been thinking about that but all of it is gone!::
::Thanks to that, was able to remember the path to proceed with::
"Urara's target idol should be..."
"There is nobody else aside from f*f..."
"Just Urara can do it, Urara's only idols!"
"Surely all of the experience as a Hoshimori is connected..."
"Definitely, going to excite even more customers than what's here!"
 Kokomi:
"Urara-chan...!"
::Amazing...::
::Showing people their hopes... This is what an idol is...::
"M-Me too..."
"GOOD LUCK YOU TWO-!"
The crowd cheers!"

[... ... ...]
 Evina:
"...Hmph"
"The enjoyment ends here..."

==64: Show Time==
64-1: Show Time
[~In front of the Concert Venue~]
 Evina:
"Hmph..."
"This is the venue"
 Alulu: "What the hell are we doing here...?"
 Evina:
"Since our pawns have decreased we came to increase them"
"Also today, here..."
"Is the final end for the Hoshimori"
 Alulu: "Seriously...?"
 Evina:
"I've brought all of the combat power we have..."
"Already won't be able to withdraw..."
"We have failed twice"
"Iris-sama also can't wait any longer"
 Alulu sighs: "That's certain..."
 Evina:
"Good? Alulu, don't do anything unnecessary this time"
"We'll move just as I said"
 Alulu:
"In agreement!"
::Hm, how long will she last...::
It laughs ::We'll see::
 Evina:
"So then, let's begin..."
"And show those girls true hell"
"IT'S SHOW TIME!"

64-4: Amid the Darkness
 Evina:
"So then, let's begin..."
"IT'S SHOW TIME!"

Kanon: "Everyone, we can still go-" The lights shut off
 Miki: "W-WHAT?"
[There's a sound...]
The audience murmurs...
Subaru and Asuha ask what's going on
 Subaru: "Don't understand but, the people around us are collapsing one after another..."
An Audience Member screams: "Where is this... my body..." and continues screaming!
An Irous appears!
Haruka yelps!
 Miki:
"This is...!?"
"What's happening..."
"The fainting people are becoming the new Irous type...!?"
Haruka: "Look! One after another around us..."
  Miki: "Perhaps... this..."
 Evina:
"Yes it is"
"Humans change into the form of new Irous type when they're possessed by their own darkness"
Sadone: "Evina!"
 Kaede: "All of this, is your deed...!?"
 Alulu snickers:
"Half of it was my doing"
"Show weak humans an illusion and allow them to be taken in by their heart's darkness"
"Humans torn apart by their own darkness are released from everything, their self, heart, and attain change"
"Until now we tested on easy girls but..."
 Miki:
"Hey wait!"
"So then, the new Irous type that we have been defeating until now are..."
 Michelle:
"Were the... kidnapped... girls..."
"When we defeated them, the person they were before..."
 Shiho: "Don't worry!"
Kokomi: "Shiho-senpai!"
 Shiho:
"When defeating the new Irous, and release their dark heart..."
"Those people will return to their former self"
"That's how we came to help the girls who have been kidnapped up to now"
Kokomi: "Is that how it is?"
 Shiho:
"Yes, even when returning to their former self, there are individual differences but there's no mistake"
"I'm sorry, even though I thought I should've told you girls too..."
Sakura: "Hmm, if that's available..."

64-6: To Risk One's Life
 Kanon: "Won't allow it..."
 Shiho: "Kanon-chan...?"
 Kanon:
"Doing this to the people who came to see our concert..."
"The crowd of this extent took the effort to come here today..."
"HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU THINK WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!"
"UNFORGIVABLE! UNFORGIVABLE! UNFORGIVABLE!!!"
She attacks!
 Evina: "Excellent, finally showed your real face haven't you"
 Shiho: "Kanon-chan, stop!"
  Yuri: "Damnit! She's lost control of herself!"
 Evina: "EXCELLENT, MORE ANGER! Throw out your own desires just like that!"
 Kanon: "This! Wait there...!"
[Smack!]
 Urara: "HEY! Calm down!"
 Kanon: "Eh..."
 Urara:
"When fighting, don't recklessly dive in is what you said!"
"Had you been done for here..."
"The most devastated would be the f*f fans that are here!"
 Kanon:
"..."
"Certainly... Looks like I let it get to my head a bit"
"Urara... thank you"
 Shiho:
"..."
"Kanon-chan..."
[There's a sharp pain! ズキン!]
::Even though my voice didn't reach her...::
::Why, how come...::
::Perhaps, truly she's already...::
(Evina) Attacks!
Shiho screams!
 Asuha: "IT'S DANGEROUS!"
Shiho is panting...
::No good. I'm only thinking about bad thoughts...::
 Evina: "Tch, unnecessary crap..."
 Asuha: "Don't be so hasty, Evina"
  Miki: "We're here, all of us are your opponent!"
 Evina:
"Hmph, had saw a nice rare face then..."
"But, it's fine. This is the final battle"

(Evina)
"An unsafe future, an unpleasant past, an ultimate army from the darkness that grows in people's hearts..."
"Continuing this fight from the past..."
"To risk each others' life..."
"WON'T IT BE A CLASH UNTIL THE LIMIT OF LIMITS!"


64-8: What Happens Instead
  Miki: "With this..."
 Kanon: "IT ENDS!"
 Evina: "Impo...ssible..."
 Asuha: "The outcome" 勝負あったな
Sadone: "Evina..."
 Evina:
"STOP IT! DON'T LOOK AT ME WITH THOSE EYES!"
"As someone I once threw out...!"
"It's not possible for me to lose..."
"FOR HOSHIMORI... ONLY FOR HOSHIMORI...!"
  Yuri: "She escaped!"
Nozomi: "Chase after her!"

Outside...
 Evina gasps
"Again, can't be defeated again..."
  Iris: "Does leaving it to you end up in this mess?"
 Evina:
"Iris-sama, why are you here...!"
"There is no excuse... However, it's still..."
"IT'S STILL NOT OVER!"
"So, please, your assistance please...!"
 Iris sighs...
"Still haven't gotten used to the Hoshimori since the start..."
Evina: "Eh?"
 Iris:
"It is unfortunate but, it seems like this is enough"
"Thank you for everything until now. And so..."
"Farewell, Evina"
 Evina:
"That's... For your sake I've..."
"PLEASE WAIT...! IRIS-SA..."
There's a flash of light and Evina screams!

[Ba-king!] バキンッ!
 Evina: "My e-ears have...!?"
She sees the classroom
 Evina:
"T-This is..."
"Right... I... remember..."
"At that place... ...I... was..."
There's another flash of light and Evina disappears
 Iris:
"Good bye, Evina"
"Cherish your past memories..."
"And sleep at ease"
"...So, let's begin the true feast"

 (Iris)
"The two stars blessed by a natural talent who everyone envies"
"Especially, that girl..."
"I'm greatly fascinated by the flame residing in her chest"

 Iris: "Are you here, Alulu?"
Alulu pops up
 Iris: "We're returning, so we can begin our preparations for the next fight"
Alulu: "We're not fighting here?"
 Iris:
"It took a lot of trouble to come gather the brilliant Hoshimori for this moment"
"We'll have to prepare an extraordinary treat for those girls..."
 Alulu:
"I-Iris-shama, making moves personally..."
"Perhaps this will become, a terribly horrible thing..."
 Iris:
"Everything is from here on..."
"Let's continue dancing until the end"
