"Hello, today, a girl named Nanami Haruka was found dead..."

"No...NO!" The small man with blonde hair screamed.

His voice was full of anger and hate. His eyes began to tear up.

"Syo..." A man with yellow-orange hair with glasses comforted the small blonde by patting his head.

The blonde hugged the man with glasses and cried.

"...her body was found in a small warehouse..."

Everyone was dead silent.

Ichinose quickly took the remote and turned off the TV with slightly shaking hands.

The room was silent; the only thing that was heard was the muffled cries of Syo.

"...Little Lamb is-" Ren began quietly.

"DON'T SAY IT!" Masato suddenly got up from his seat and yelled.

He had tears in his eyes, but he wouldn't let them free.

His tears were trapped in his eyes like an eternal prison; as Haruka is in the eternal prison of death.

"IF ONLY WE HAD FOUND HER SOONER! THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED TO HER!" Masato screeched loudly.

His tears finally spilled out as he collapsed on the floor.

Ren looked at him sadly and said nothing. He knew this was not the time to speak.

"Nanami...NANAMI...!" Otoya began to tear up as well.

He buried his face in his palms.

How can such a kind-hearted girl die like this?

Why did it have to be her?

"No...this can't be true..." Tokiya said under his breath.

His expression was dark and twisted; he was in pain as well as the others.

"Guys...we don't have the time to be sad. We have to go save Nanami NOW." Cecil got up and spoke in a strong voice.

Everyone looked up at him; angered.

"It's too late to help! She's gone!" Syo wailed.

"No. The muses have sent me a message. They told me that without Nanami, our music will never shine again. And thus, they want to change her fate. We must go back in time and save her life." Cecil said.

He was determined to save Nanami no matter what it takes.

"...you mean we can still save Nanami?" Tokiya asked in what sounded like a whisper.

Everyone had stop weeping; their attention completely on Cecil.

He nodded.

"The muses have decided to help us reclaim our radiance by giving us a chance to save Nanami." He explained.

"This necklace is now able to send one person at a time back to the time Nanami was not yet kidnapped." He held up the now brightly shining necklace.

"That means all of us will be able to go back to the past; but one at a time only. We can stay in the past for 3 hours only; and you will be warped back here. We can all save Nanami! We can prevent her death! We will fight the fate God has given her!" Cecil spoke out strongly.

He had confidence they would be able to save the beautiful and kind Nanami.

"But remember this: Each person is only allowed 3 trips back in time. So use your time wisely. So, are you with me?" Everyone nodded their heads.

They were no long crying; but the determination on their faces was no mistake.

"I will save Nanami...I swore to myself that I would protect her."

"Nanami, wait for me! I won't let you leave us alone again!"

"Little Lamb, stay strong and wait for me. I shall save you, for you are the beat of my heart."

"Haru-chan! I will make sure you live a happy and peaceful life!"

"Nanami-san...please don't die on me again. I will do my best to prevent your death."

"Nanami, I will protect your smile and everyone else!"

"Haruka...we're coming to save you from your eternal prison."

Each and every one of the guys swore that they will bring Haruka back; even if it might cost them their lives.

"Okay, everyone. We shall begin traveling tomorrow. Perhaps this is the perfect time to make some plans that could save Haruka." Cecil said.

"But remember...you only have 3 chances. Failure is not an option. Nanami's life is now in our hands."

"You don't have to repeat that twice. I am going to protect Nanami. I had failed to do so before..." Syo was not crying anymore, nor was he smiling.

He was full of determination.

"Kurusu is right. We must save her. Not only her, but ourselves. Without her, there is no us." Ren finally spoke up again.

Everyone stared at him, shocked.

"What? Is that something that I would usually not say?" He laughed slightly.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Then you better start getting used to it because I don't plan on a stopping!" Ren was smiling.

He had made the mood slightly better. It had made everyone smile.

"Alright; it's planning time! I'm going back to my room." Otoya said, walking out of the room.

"I guess I have to go with him...see you later." Tokiya followed Otoya out.

"Yeah, they're right! Let's go plan, Syo-chan!" Natsuki dragged Syo out of the room, despite his protests.

"...Let's go." Masato left the room. Ren followed him silently.

"..." Cecil didn't want to go to his room, he enjoyed the outdoors more.

He went to the rose garden outside and thought about some ideas.

The cold air of the night made him feel refreshed.

He looked up at the fully lit moon.

"Wait for us, Nanami. We will bring you back home soon." He whispered to the sky.

The stars in the sky shined brighter in response. As he began to walk back into the mansion, he heard a faint girl's voice.

"Goodluck, Cecil. Come back safely..."

He turned back, but all he saw was a white mist that disappeared into the air.

"What was that?" He asked out loud to no one in particular.

He took his necklace in his palm and squeezed it, thinking it was one of the muses wishing him luck.

He smiled to himself and quietly walked back into the mansion and into his room.

Well, hello everyone!
