Sasageyo! Kyoumei no Squeak Event Story/Chapter 3

Children:	*stare...*
Issei:	...
Boy 1:	H- Hey, come on, you go.
Boy 2:	Stop pushing me, didn't you find him first!?
Boy 1:	It's dangerous, I bet he'll never give me a stamp!
Issei:	......
Boy 2:	Uwah, he's looking over here!
Boy 1:	W- What should we do, should we run...?
Boy 2:	Even after we've finally found him...?
Issei:	Hey, you.
Children:	Aah...!
Issei:	Isn't there something you want from me?
Issei:	If there's something you want to steal from me--
Children:	Uwaaah, we're sorry!!!
	*runs away*
Issei:	......... Tch!
Issei:	(That's why I hate interacting with children...!)
Keji:	Ichi-nii?
Issei:	... Ah, Keji.
Keji:	Why did those children run away just now?
Issei:	They were scared of me.
Keji:	You aren't scary, Ichi-nii. You're very kind. And cool!
Issei:	... Thank you. Should've said that to those kids.
Issei:	(It's bad if I don't do something about this. But, what should I do...)
Keji:	... Thank you for the stamp. I will collect them all and get a matching pin badge with you, Ichi-nii!
Issei:	Okay, good luck.
Keji:	Thanks!
Issei:	(It's strange that I can get along so well with him...)
???:	Fufufu... You seem to be in trouble, Warlock Thunder.
Issei:	This voice--
???:	I suppose that you're in dire need of my aid.
	*ta-dah*
Hikaru:	That's right, the help of this brilliantly shining Warlock Shiny has arrived!!
Issei:	... What do you want, Hikaru?
Hikaru:	You're mistaken, Thunder! My name is Warlock Shiny. I currently function as part of the amusement park staff, as you might know!!
Hikaru:	It is the same as standing on a stage. Referring to me as anything other than the name of my role is a violation of the rules, don't you agree?
Issei:	(Sigh... I've involved myself with some troublesome guys.)
Issei:	... So, why are you here? Having multiple members of us in the same place is a bad thing. It's against the point of the event.
Hikaru:	Why would you even ask such a thing, I came here to help you, of course! My duty as a source of light is to guide lost lambs like you.
Futami:	And me, who can sense the troubled aura of Thunder, makes his gallant entry! Warlock Aerial!
Toya:	To those who are cornered and find themselves caught in a dilemma, I will open the way to new possibilities. Warlock Wisdom.
Issei:	Even you guys--
Momosuke:	I- no, we are here too! Uhm, I will deliver a smile to those who are sad, Floral! Come on, you too, Chaoyang-kun!
Chaoyang:	Uh, uuuhm, I will find out the truth for those who have been deceived, I'm... Warlock Prism!
Hikaru:	You showed to this Shiny, this Hikaru Orihara, that children are afraid of you and running away!
Issei:	Wha...!
Futami:	Issei really does seem a tiny bit scary at first glance. It's no wonder those children ran away. But don't mind it!
Issei:	Are you really trying to cheer me up...?
Futami:	Don't make such a scary face, I just said the truth-- Ah, I'm sorry, I got carried away! I'm scared, please stop making that face!
Toya:	But this is worrying nonetheless. If most of the children are avoiding you, there will be very little children who actually collect all stamps.
Momosuke:	But Issei-san isn't scary at all!
Futami:	We know Issei is kind too, so we don't think of him as scary... But I guess he might seem difficult to approach.
Chaoyang:	I used to think so too... but now I'm not scared! Rather, I'm very impressed by him, I admire his strength a lot...!
Hikaru:	Being difficult to approach might also be an element that makes up the charm of an idol... But this time it clearly does more harm than good!
Issei:	...
Futami:	Ahaha! Hikaru-kun's being as frank as ever~ But it would certainly be weird for Issei to suddenly break out into a smile.
Chaoyang:	Now... to make good use of Warlock Thunder's character while also getting close to the children... Hmm...
Momosuke:	Ah!! I Have a good idea!
Warlock:	A good idea??
Momosuke:	Yes! You know, you can show them your magic!
Toya:	Magic...
Issei:	You mean I should just improvise some tricks?
Chaoyang:	But I'm sure magic tricks and such are very difficult...
Momosuke:	You know, I didn't mean it like that... Uhm, I got mistaken for a girl by some children earlier--
Momosuke:	When I told them that I'm actually a boy, they thought I used magic to look like a girl. They were really excited.
Momosuke:	So if it looks like real magic in the eyes of the children, I think we should try it...
Momosuke:	T- ... That's my thoughts...
Chaoyang:	If it seems like real magic...
Toya:	In the eyes of the children...
Momosuke:	... So it really was a bad idea.
Futami:	No, no, I think it's a very good idea! But.. the problem is, we can't do something like you.
Hikaru:	I see... I see! This is truly a good idea, Warlock Floral!
Momosuke:	R- Really?
Hikaru:	Indeed! As I-Chu, we have the ability to do things that look like magic in the eyes of the others. It certainly is a fine idea!
Issei:	... What are you on about?
Hikaru:	Watch!
Hikaru:	*sparkles*
Issei:	... Hah?
Momosuke:	T- That's amazing, Hikaru-kun! How did you do that? Can I do it too??
Hikaru:	Of course you can! Because we are the chosen ones! We are the idols in the making, chosen by our Producer!!
Hikaru:	Because we are I-Chu!!! *sparkles*
Momosuke:	I want to try it too! I can definitely do it, because... because I'm--
Momosuke	Because I'm an I-Chu! *blooms*
Chaoyang:	A- Amazing, Momosuke-san! You were a little different from Hikaru-san's sparkling, I could see flowers coming from you...!
Momosuke:	Really!? Ehehe, I'm so glad I could do it.
Futami:	... Seems like it can be done if you want to.
Toya:	A whole new discovery. If you say it like that, maybe, we too...
Hikaru:	Of course you can do it too!!
Futami:	Guess so.
Toya:	So we're acceptable too.
Futami & Toya:	Because we are I-Chu!! *sparkles & blooms*
Chaoyang:	You two are amazing...!
Futami:	Ooh, we really did it! That's really interesting!
Toya:	It's your turn next, Chaoyang-kun.
Chaoyang:	Uhm... I wonder if I can do it too...?
Hikaru:	The first step is to hold confidence in yourself! Now, believe in yourself--
Momosuke:	I'm sure there'll be no problems, Chaoyang-kun!
Toya:	That's right. You are the same as us--
Chaoyang:	Because... I'm an I-Chu...! *blooms*
Futami:	Oooh! You could do it, what cute flowers! Good job, Chaoyang-kun.
Chaoyang:	T- Thank you very much! I could make flowers appear because all of you supported me!
Toya:	So the only one that's left is Issei-kun.
Issei:	... I won't do it.
Futami:	We've come so far, so you can't just not do it~ To begin with, everyone did their best only for you, Issei.
Momosuke:	I want to see what kind of sparkles you'll show us, Issei-san!
Chaoyang:	I'm sure you'll show us a sparkle that mine can't be compared to...!
Hikaru:	Now, Thunder! Please show us a radiant lightning, just as your name suggests!
