Backstage Bonds Before the Spotlight

Rurino

Just fifteen minutes until we go on stage, Megumi!

Rurino

I keep messing up that spin move in the second verse.

Megumi

Don't worry, we've practiced it a hundred times.

Megumi

Just remember to spot the exit sign when you turn.

Rurino

Oh no! My hair accessory is completely tangled!

Rurino

I can't get it out without ruining my hairstyle!

Megumi

(She's going to cry if I don't help her quickly.)

Rurino

Thank you so much, Megumi.

Rurino

I don't know what I'd do without you as my partner.

Megumi

That's what partners are for!

Megumi

Now let's go show everyone what we've been working so hard for.

Rurino

What just happened?!

Rurino

Why were there smoke bombs in our prop box?

Megumi

Stay close to me, Rurino.

Megumi

Something's not right about this.

Rurino

Megumi, look at this!

Rurino

These definitely aren't stage props... are they ninja tools?

Megumi

(Fresh footprints leading to the window... someone was definitely here.)

Rurino

Did you hear that announcement? Five minutes to showtime!

Rurino

We can't deal with mystery ninjas right now!

Megumi

You're right. Let's clean this up quickly and focus on our performance.

Megumi

We'll figure out the ninja mystery after we shine on stage!

Rurino

Together, we can handle anything!

Rurino

Let's show everyone our best performance ever!
