33 Chapter 33: Club (1)

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Monday.

After breakfast, my wives and me, with the new addition of Ichika, were preparing to go to school. The maid girls already left with the exception of Sakura who would come with us.

"Are you ready, Sakura?"

"…I … uuh… I d-don't know…"

"Don't worry. We're with you."

"…uuuuh…"

Today, she would start going to school without her usual disguise. She'll need it if she wants to come out of her shell.

"Let's go."

At first, the walk was uneventful. While the dormitories and the mansion are in the same district, there is still a distance between them. When we reached the crossroad to the dorms, we started to encounter store students. Though most of them were used to seeing me surrounded by girls, they still directed their attention to us and noticed Sakura.

"Huh, hey, do you recognize that girl with Himekawa?" Said a random guy to his friend.

"Huh, which one?"

"That girl with a long pink hair somehow hiding behind him."

"Well… wow, she's really beautiful. Did we have someone like this before? I don't remember seeing her."

"Me too, and that's weird. Someone this beautiful shouldn't get unnoticed. Not to mention she would be a top contender for the school's beauty ranking."

"Could it be that she's a transferred student? Does this school allow something like that?"

"Dunno. We just entered the school this year. But if it's the case, I hope she enter our class."

"Yeah, another addition of a beauty would be welcomed."

"A shame she's with Himekawa's group."

"He really should explode."

Such a discussion were taking place as we were walking. The closer we were to the school, the more the number of students around us increased and they were attracted to Sakura's presence which caused her to hide behind me more.

"That won't do, Sakura. You need to get used to be the center of attention. While this is a little excessive due to the fact they're not used to seeing you, you would always attract people's attention so this is a good training for you."

"Uuuuh… o-okay then."

"Good, then let's go to the class. I'm curious how would our classmates react to this."

"Yeah, me too. And knowing them, it would be a little chaotic."

"Yeah, you're right, Nino. Well, this time, I'm also curious about this, even though they would be really loud."

"As if they're not loud usually. *Sigh* well, Sakura, if you have any difficulty it is someone is bothering you, you can call us."

"T-thank you, Hinomori-san, everyone."

We went to our class while Arisu went to hers. As I opened the front door and entered, I noticed that all out classmates were already there and we attracted people's attention when we entered.

"Yahallo, Yuu, everyone!"

"Huh, where did you get that?"

"It's from Yuigahama-senpai. That's how she greet her friends and it sounded fun so I also wanted to try it."

"Huh, who's this?" Exclaimed a guy pointing at Sakura. That also made our other classmates to look at her.

"Wait, Shizuku-chan?" Exclaimed Ike.

"Shizuku-chan? …Wait, that's right. She's Shizuku-chan, the gravure idol. Wow, I didn't expect her to be here."

"Now that you guys say that, I think I saw her in the Fairytopia magazine." Said Shinohara.

"Good morning. Shizuku-san right? Is there anything you need from our class?" Asked Hirata.

"Ah… uhm… i-it's not…"

"*Sigh* Hirata, maybe you don't recognize her but she's actually Sakura Airi from our class."

The whole class immediately became silent for a moment.

"""Eeeeeehhhhhhhh!!!"""

"How can that be?"

"Is this real? This can't be a dream right?"

Our classmates couldn't help but exclaim at that. The gravure idol Shizuku had an image of a cheerful girl in contrast with Sakura's meek and shy personality. Well, more than half of them already knew it so they only watched the other's reaction.

"I know she's a gravure idol but I hope you won't bother her with your questions. As you see, she's still the meek and shy girl we know so it you bother her, I'll cut down your resources supplies."

"Ehhh?? I was hoping to interact with an idol classmate." Said Sotomura, a chubby guy in our class and one of Ike's friend.

…

After school, as everyone were preparing to leave, I called Ike.

"Hey Ike, how was it?"

"Well, is seems there isn't a Pokemusical club in this school. There was one two years ago but since no one joined it after the last members graduated, the club was dissolved."

I actually asked him to inquire about that during lunch break.

"Well, I expected that. Did you ask the requirements to make one?"

"Hehe, yeah. I even got an application form for club creation. Apparently, you need at least 5 members to apply for one then you'll have to take it the the student council. They're the one to make decision for that." He put the sheet in the table.

"I see. Thanks."

After filling it, I went to the students council's office after asking the girls to go ahead since I didn't know how long it would take.

When I reached it, I knocked on the door. Hearing someone telling me to enter, I opened the door and entered. There were four people in the room.

"Good day, president Horikita, everyone."

"Heh, Himekawa Yuu right? Is there anything we can do for you?" Said a blond guy who was sitting on my left. He was the vice president, Nagumo Miyabi. The girl with a short people hair glared at him for a moment when he said that.

"I'm here for a club creation application."

"Hmm? Have you already filled a form or do you need one?" Asked the black haired guy on the desk in front of me. He was the council president Horikita Manabu, who is also the brother of Horikita Suzune from my class.

"I already have filled one. Here it is." I have him the application form.

"Hoh, you're creating a club huh, interesting. Could you tell us more about it?" Said the vice president Nagumo but I just ignored him.

Seeing me ignoring him, Nagumo got slightly irritated but before he could say anything, the president Horikita put down the sheet and said,

"Are you planning to revive the Pokemon musicals club?"

"Well, that wasn't really my goal. I just needed to make one so that we could participate in some competitions. Though it could be said it's the case."

"I see, then, fir-"

"Oi oi oi, wait a moment, Pokemon musicals? Are you really serious, Himekawa? I saw a video of your battle with Ayanokoji and I can tell you're talented, so why would you waste your talent in those things?" Interjected Nagumo.

"Shut up. This doesn't concern you."

"What are you saying? I can't let you waste your taken like that. If you focus on battles, you would reach the four stars level without a problem, and even give stars should be possible."

"Hey, Nagumo, that's your name right? Are you stupid? The battle between Ayanokoji and me should be easily categorized as a four stars one. I wonder how did you get your seat as the vice president if you don't know that. Also, while it's not official, I'm already at the five stars level."

"Huh? Don't make me laugh. You need to at least have three Pokemon capable of using a domain to be recognized as one."

"*Sigh* For your knowledge, I have more than ten Pokemon capable of that."

Everyone in the room was stunned hearing that.

"Bullshit! There's no way that's true. You shouldn't lie about those matters."

"*Sigh* Nagumo, didn't you know that the members of our clan can't lie?"

"Huh? Wait, wasn't that just store kind of urban legends?"

"Nope, it isn't. It's one of the price we have to pay for being able to use our power. Everyone have to pay something in order to be able to use any kind of power."

He was silent for a moment before saying,

"Then, why did you enter this school? You should have no reason to get here right?"

"I just judged that I would find the best candidates for my harem in this school."

"…Huh? That's your reason?"

"Yup, I don't have any other reason to get here. Also, now that I'm here, I decided to join the class competition since it seemed fun."

Nagumo just sat on his seat without saying anything to sort everything he heard.

"Anyway, let's not get derailed. Himekawa-kun, since the club you want to make already existed before and only got dissolved due to the lack of members, coupled with the fact it's about one of the four most famous Pokemon entertainments, I can approve the club creation immediately and we can give you an unused classroom as your club room. However, you would have to share one of the school's stadium with other clubs for your practices If you want to use them or you could find somewhere you could practice without disturbing the other students."

"Ah, the last part isn't needed. I already have a private stadium I paid the school to make so we would use that instead."

"You paid the school to… *sigh* Anyway, let's take care of the official documents then."

…

I went out of the teaching building after everything got finalized which you about an hour. Since I didn't have anything to do, I decided to take my time while walking back home. A few hundreds of meters from the building, I saw two people I knew so I approached them to say hello but…

"Stop, Shizuku. I know it deep down. I'm…" Said the pink haired girl. She was Momoi Airi from Class B, she was talking with Shizuku, Shiho's sister.

"But…"

"Stop!! What do you know! You've got the aura, you've got the talent! I've got a plain face, I'm not approved even if I try hard. What do you know about me? You're accepted by everyone as an idol with only what you were born with."

"A-… Airi-chan…" When she heard this words, Shizuku felt hurt and tears fell from her eyes.

"Ah, I-I'm sorry…" Momoi tried to apologize but Shizuku immediately ran away.

"Wait, Shizuku…" she extended her hand as if trying to stop Shizuku but she just stood there unable to move.

"*Sigh* it seems you did hit a sore spot."

"H-huh!" She jolted away when she heard me.

"Yo, Momoi."

"Himekawa-kun? Did you hear what we said?"

"Not everything, only from the "Stop, Shizuku." part."

"So you heard me screwing up huh…" she said with a disdain toward herself.

"Yup, and it seemed to have hit her hard. Could you tell me how did it come to this?"

"Huh? Why would I have to say it?"

"Well, I want to help Shizuku. Also, I can't let you stay like this. I know you're really hurt inside even though you're putting a strong front. So, Momoi, could you tell me about it."

"Uuuuh… That's really unfair. Ugh, well, it started when we were talking about being an idol. You see, I always wanted to become an idol. At first, I was really happy when I managed to join a small agency in which I joined QT, a newly formed idol group at that time. Though we were just newbies in the industry, I was happy to experience the beginning of my idol career and we even managed to release a few singles. It was also at that time I met Shizuku for the first time and we quickly became friends.

"I was really elated when I got my first solo job by working as an entertainer and it was also a great success. I then got more and more offers as an entertainer and it got to the point the agency asked me to accept them even if I had to miss one of our lives. I got in a serious argument after that and it got to the point that I decided to change agency just for the same thing to repeat again. They were just gentle in the beginning.

"Shizuku tried to comfort me but due to the fact she was really successful as an idol, I got jealous of her and ended up saying that to her." She gritted her teeth while saying the last part.

"I see. Hey, Momoi, do you really mean what you said?"

"Of course not!! I mean, her beauty and talent gives her an advantage but that clumsy girl would've had a hard time starting her career if I didn't give her a push and I know more than anyone she was really doing her best as an idol."

"That's good. You want to make up with her right?"

"Of course I want."

"Then, let's meet tomorrow after school. It's highly probable she would avoid you tomorrow so I'll ask her sister to take her somewhere and have you two to meet there so that you would can tell her what you think."

"Thank you very much, Himekawa-kun."

"Don't worry about it. Also, I think you have a good talent for an idol."

"…Not you too…"

"I really mean it though. From what I think, there are two reason for things to become like that for you, and it was your talent as an entertainer and capitalism."

"Huh? Could you explain more?"

"Well, in addition of your talent as idol, you also have a great talent as an entertainer. You know how competitive the world of idol is right? Especially when they enter the Pokemon musicals. On another side, it's not that much for entertainers. Due to that, you could achieve success more more easily as an entertainer than as an idol. And since you earned them more money as an entertainer, they wanted you to focus more on it."

"…So that was it… THOSE GREEDY BASTARDS!!!" she screamed in rage. Well, it was understandable since she failed to achieve her dream due to some people's greed. Thankfully for her it isn't too late for her.

"Hey, Momoi, are you interested in the Pokemusicals?"

"Of course I am. That's the reason I became an idol and that I entered this school."

"Then, I think I can help you to achieve your dream."

"Eh, really?"

"Yup. For that, you'll need to join our club!"

There would be another adventure chapter in the near future so you can comment on which Pokemon the MC would get (No legendary).

Don't forget the power stones.
