	Ah, the fireworks went off! That’s the signal from Konan-san~♪ L-Let's make our move too, all according to the plan! The middle school students here for the "School Information Session," the current Kimisaki Academy students, and the locals are gathering around. To liven things up... with entertainment! That’s... our role♪ Um, er... Let's work well together, okay? Sone... san?
	Mm... Rather than "Sone-san," I prefer "Seira-chan," actually♪
	S-Sorry that you got rolled up into this. As soon as I heard Konan-san go, "Don't you know anyone who can perform music?," I thought of Sone-san...? Er, umm... Sone-san, you probably don't remember, but...! I-I was in the same middle school as Sone-san...? Because I saw your concert at our middle school's festival, Sone-san! Y-You're still doing music in high school too, right...? Some girl said, "She joined the Rock Band Club," and I happened to overhear it! Um, and you always carry a guitar around and stuff? That's why I'm… I'm sorry, I'm really sorry? We bothered you by suddenly saying, "Play a gig," didn't we? And I'm not that well-versed in things like music, so it flies over my head, but... W-W-Weren't you practicing and stuff~?
	Squeeze~♪
	K-KYAAH!? WH-WH-WH-WHY ARE YOU HUGGING MEEEE!?
	Because Kuromori-chan being such a "Nervous Nelly" is sooo cute~♪ Besides, when you become panicked, the Number One thing to do is to squeeze and listen to the sound of the heart!
	Y-Y-You can't be serious...? You're embarrassing meee... even though it's in front of everyone! For me, Anzu-chan is~!?
	Ahaha. Hey Kuromori-chan, what's your given name again?
	Huh? Umm...? Suzu! Suzu Kuromori!
	Ahh, so that's it. Even though we were in the same middle school, we didn't know each other that well, hmm? "Suzu"... As in "bell"? Then "Clochette," perhaps♪* *Suzu can mean ‘bell’ in Japanese, while clochette is ‘little bell’ in French.
	K-Kuro… shetto?
	Hmm... "Kuromori" and then "Clochette"... So "Clo-chan" shall do, yes♪ Ehehe... The truth is, I've been fond of Clo-chan since the very beginning. That's why right now, I'm happy that you’ve requested a gig from me~♪ Whether or not it’s a request, I always want to sing, actually. Right now, it's just an impromptu stage... So, you know, this isn't something to be "sorry" about at all♪ That said, getting the rest of the Rock Band Club's members involved in this wouldn't be good either, would it? The one who wanted to lend a hand to Clo-chan... is me, after all. Whatever problems arise, it will be my responsibility alone♪ That's why only I can be of assistance, actually. I suppose you don't mind?
	O-Of course I don't! I was the one who thought of getting help from Sone-san! Sone-san, during middle school you were always the center of the class too! You sparkled so much, it felt like you were an "Otherworldly Being" to me! Because... I thought you looked like an a-a-angel...✩
	Hmm... I'm not anything like an angel, actually. That aside, shall we begin the performance?
	S-Sure! Nice working with youーBreak a leg♪
	Goodness, what’s with you talking as if this is someone else’s problem? Sing too, Clo-chan! Come and perform, okay~?♪ Here, I'll lend you an electric guitar! It's another club member's, actually. Let's keep that a secret from everyone, all right?♪ If it's just me, I can't pump up the crowdーIt'll be boring! Wouldn't it be fair to make up for dragging me into this by teaming up? Let me play this gig together... with Clo-chan♪
	H-Huh? With me...? But I don't know any songs or instruments or anything like thaaat!?
	No need to worry. I can play a pre-recorded track, so it's fine if you’re not experienced with an electric guitar♪ Moreover Clo-chan, it's because I sense that you have a veeery pretty voice. You can definitely singーYes, let's sing together! I want to sing! This sublime ensemble... Let it rock the souls of the people throughout this world!♪ Let's raise the hype to the point of vomiting blood! Mmhmm~ Rock 'n' roll☆
	R-Rokkun ro~ru...?  (Wowwie, all the people gathering are watching us!) (Even though I've come to live as if I was always hiding in a corner, not being noticed by anyone!) (It's almost like light's beaming on me from head to toe. Sone-san... You're giving me this light, aren't you?)
	(It's only a millionth to that of Sone-san, but... I'm sparkling too, aren't I? Right on this stage...☆) (I... I feel... a bit weird! My heart... it's going ba-dump ba-dump a whooole lot!) (Ooh~! This kind of... feels nice~☆) Rock and roooll~! Ahaah, ahahahaha...♪
