Chapter 5 - The Voice Actress

Day 4 of recruitment finding the right time to catch the ex-member from the idol club members have been quite difficult for us...

"Hey, we been planning to see this theatre club's play everyday are you sure?" Kasumi asked, "Huh don't like plays eh Kasumi?" I asked confused expression "I enjoyed the plays especially learning more about Shakespeare," Yu said smiled "It's not like that...For Shizuko would it better to like, go right to her classroom during break times, or something?" Kasumi asked confused "Isn't it Shizuku, not Shizuko?" I asked "It's the nickname I give her," Kasumi said "Ah alright then," I said "Uwah...." Ayumu said "My my Shizuku sure knows how to be actress," Yuu said shocked expression "Ah?! Don't cry," Kasumi asked Ayumu...

"Shizuku Osaka acting is really amazing," Ayumu said wiping tears aside "Oh that we watched this like I don't know three times already," Kasumi said confused expression "No matter how many times I watch it, This scene always makes me cry, As she sucks you into the stage," Ayumu said (I can understand that) I thought confused (Oooh now having feelings for this actress eh Leo?) Leonidas thought (SHUT UPP) I thought annoyed "I will admit she's really good at the acting," I said as others nodded in agreement...

"Shizuko wanted to do theater right from the start. She even says wanted to put her school idol activities to use in her plays" Kasumi said confused "So that's why she so good at acting" Ayumu said smiled "Being an Idol probably help her resonate her feelings to the audience" Yuu said smiled "What does Resonate mean??" I asked confused "Are you that dumb?" Kasumi asked annoyed "Leon resonate means to have particular meaning or importance for someone" Ayumu explained "Ooohh alrighty," I said, "And you are our manager..." Kasumi said sweatdrop "Hey you wanted me to be the manager and here we are," I said "True..." Kasumi said sweatdrop "However as I was saying...That not really what I'm getting at I meant to say that being a school idol isn't what she only after at" Kasumi said sweatdrop "That's understandable never put all your eggs into one basket" I said confused "But she said she bet her entire school life to become idol *sniffle*" Kasumi said as I sweatdrop... "Ah, Kasumi don't cry!" Ayumu yelled panic "I ain't crying you are..." Kasumi said while that was going on the play finally stops and we are just wasting time going back n forth like this...

I gotta get to the backside of the room and talk to Shizuku...Maybe talking to a theater club member who will let me in...

"Hey, I don't recognize you buddy what you think your doing??" T.C Member asked "Uh I have to talk to Miss Shizuku about club matters," I said "Pfft yeah right you just want to get her autograph," T.C Member said (Ugh for Pete sake I don't have time for this!) I thought "You will let me inside," I said hand glowing blue "...I will let you inside" T.C Member said "Actually you'll come back here with Shizuku saying there are few club members from Idol Club arrive to talk to her," I said "Understood," T.C Member said left as I chuckled to myself (That was dick move Leon) Leonidas thought (...I know but can't waste any time yah know) I thought (True that T.C Member was acting annoying runt) Leonidas thought as I chuckled...

"Yes?" Shizuku asked appeared before me "Hello Shizuku can I talk to you for a few minutes" I said smiled "There are others with you?" Shizuku asked "Yes Kasumi came to asked you to come back into Idol Club," I said, "Kasumi is here???" Shizuku asked shocked "You really don't expect to believe him?" T.C Member B said "Let him speak," Shizuku said stern tone "Fine..." T.C Member B said walked away...

"Hey, I was able to get Shizuku!" I yelled "You did? That's wonderful!" Ayumu yelled, "Wow meeting her in person she looks beautiful!" Yu yelled "..." Kasumi said nothing looked at her "Ahaha...nice to meet all of you My name is Shizuku Osaka" Shizuku introduced herself...

"Sorry about dragging you out here must be tired from that performance," I said nervously chuckled "..." Kasumi said nothing "Kasumi could you at least look at her it's rude you know," I said sighed

"No that's alright Leon-senpai... It's been a while hasn't Kasumi...I'm sorry" Shizuku said concerned expression "Shizuku your acting was amazing up there! I cry no matter how many times I see you up there!" Ayumu yelled "It's true we seen it three times and boom tears," Yu said nervously chuckled "Thank you very much! I'm really moved you come to see us that many times" Shizuku said smiled "Shizuko why'd did you stop coming back to the club?" Kasumi asked "Oi hey Kasumi!" I yelled, "K-Kasumi that's little..." Ayumu said concerned "No that's alright it's really something I should talk to her about," Shizuku said concerned expression "Please...explain," Kasumi said as we all turned to Shizuku...

"Well I always loved theater, but I wanted to be just a school idol as much. So I transferred to this school since I knew this would be the time in my life where I can focus on being a school idol" Shizuku said smiling "I'm guessing there's weren't any school idols back in your old school" I said sweatdrop arms crossed "They weren't. And I knew Nijigasaki High would be an institution strongly promoting their idols, and I could figure put some work in these next three years" Shizuku said "If your so passionate then, why? Kasumi told me much of it but was the differences in the direction that bad painful or?" I asked confused "It wasn't that...I thought it was interesting when we all had our differences to do new things, Personally, I wanted to use my idol experience with my acting, and it was fun to see the differences in what everyone sought and how they expressed themselves" Shizuku said explained, "I must say you're really doing an amazing job, I could feel your resonance to the audience like, an idol would express.." I said truthfully as Ayumu and Yuu both nodded in response while Kasumi just listen...

"Thank you, we were all different in our own ways Setsuna really stand out for a lot of us...I thought if I followed her, I would get closer to my school idol ideal..." Shizuku said as I was thinking for a bit in my head "That what Kasumi told me she did but something went wrong?" I asked "Setsuna definitely lead us to the right path, but I could never freely express what I wanted to do as well," Shizuku said "...Dang," I said stunned...

"That got me frustrated with myself and I wanted to expressed enough so that Setsuna expressive enough so that Setsuna could pick up to my feelings...so I started to train here," Shizuku said, "T-Then just say that beforehand y'know how worried I was?!" Kasumi yelled "I had my plate full with rehearsals, line reading, and studies...I'm really sorry.." Shizuku said eyes closed "So...you mean this entire time you were a guest performer in the theater club so you could become an even better school idol?" I asked confused expression "That's right," Shizuku said "That checks out I knew you still had that school idol passion still," I said smiled "The whole reason I transferred here in the first place to become school idol...That passion isn't going away that easily" Shizuku said "Remember what I say Kasumi looks like I was correct" I said smiled "I know...then come back Shizuko!!" Kasumi yelled, "Wait, What?!" Shizuku yelled flinched "The School president says if there are not enough members by the end of this month it will be disbanded," I said "Oh no it's because I went on my own isn't it? I'm really sorry!" Shizuku yelled, "So does that mean you'll come back?" I asked confused expression "If you'll let me! I managed to pick up some little confidence, and I want everyone to see me perform!" Shizuku yelled "A little confidence? You completely owned that stage yours! Your amazing!" Ayumu yelled, "I agreed!" Yuu yelled, "Thank you so much!" Shizuku yelled, "We loved to have you back isn't that right Kasumi?" I asked "Yes..." Kasumi said "Awww that's great Kasumi," Ayumu said smiled "Heh not bad everyone," Leonidas said on my shoulder "There you are Leonidas," I said sweatdrop "I was patrolling the clubroom since I got bored," Leonidas said yawned "It's great an all but I'm still little mad," Kasumi said "Ughh come on," I said sweatdrop "But well Shizuko you're the same age as me, and I'd really missed you if you left completely so..." Kasumi said "Kasumi! Thank you very much!!" Shizuku yelled as we all were happy for them to reunited unexpected face appeared in our conversation...

"My, what a coincidence," Nana said stunned looking at all of us "P-President Nana?!" Kasumi yelled shocked expression "I'd happened to come to check on Theater club and to run into all of you...Is the recruitment going well for you" Nana said "It sure is! Powered-up Shizuko's agreed to come back into the club" Kasumi said "Kasumi..." Shizuku said sweatdrop "If we keep this up we are going to get ten members in a flash! Just you wait!" Kasumi yelled "Well I'm looking forward to that moment take care," Nana said smiled giggled left the area...

"You know she not my favorite person hmph," Kasumi said "Ahaha..." all said nervously laughed "Come on we should get the move on," I said smiled "YEAH!" Everyone yelled...

Hm, that's weird I feel a little different like something inside of me change...looked at my hands flash blue glow then faded away..."Eh oh well something random" I said
