Chapter 6: A Tight Spot

Iruru: (I can't use my Sense...)

Iruru: (Why...! Why in the middle of the performance?)

Iruru: (SHe's sealed my Sense.)

Iruru: (Hatsumi...!)

Hatsumi: "...What's wrong? Continue."

Spectator A: Salome's stopped dancing...

Spectator B: Whats going on? Did something go wrong?

Iruru: panting

Hatsumi: "You look out of breath. Did you push yourself too hard?"

Iruru: ...

Hatsumi: "No matter, I will wait for you to dance again."

Iruru: (...It was going so well too. Why? I made it this far, so I don't get it.)

Iruru: (To go this far and to not let me use my Sense.)

Hatsumi: "You look like you want to say something. I shall have someone bring some water to you."

Iruru: "....ahh....."

Iruru: "..."

Hatsumi: "Or maybe you don't."

Hatsumi: "In that case."

Hatsumi: "Come, dance for me once more."

Iruru: (It's no use, I can't escape from this."

Iruru: (The audience is becoming wary... We can't let this play stop now...!)

Tetra: ....Hahh.

Tetra: You've went and done it now.

Shigure: You've got to be kidding me, why did you seal her Sense in the middle of the performance...!? That's gonna be troubling for Iruru-senpai...!

Tetra: It sure is. But Hatsumi want to see her true ability.

Tetra: (How far are you willing to go in order for people to chase up to you, to go for the ideal stage?)

Iruru: "I apologise, my King. I will now dance for you."

Hatsumi: "Ah, wonderful. I'm sure my eyes will be all on you this time."

Hatsumi: "The dance that enchants the guards each night. The dance that depicts the small bird burning under the ligth of the silver moon."

Iruru: "..."

Iruru: "Understood."

Shigure: Ah...! Iruru-senpai's going to start dancing again.

Iruru: ... pant pant

Iruru: ...

Iruru: ...

Iruru: (Can I really do 4this?)

Iruru: (I don't even know. My mind is completely blank.)

Iruru: (Hahaha... This is just the worst...)

Spectator: "..."

Shigure: ...

Tetra: ...Iruru.

Hatsumi: ...

Iruru: (Hatsumi's expression hasn't changed at all. What is she thinking about me right...?)

Iruru: (Come on, just end this already... I can't take it anymore...!)

Iruru: Ah.

Spectator A: ...!

Spectator B: The actor for Salome has collapsed.

Spectator A: What's going on...?

Hatsumi: "What's wrong? Stand up. Stand up and dance for me once more."

Iruru: Ahhh....

Hatsumi: ...

Hatsumi: "Fine."

Iruru: "My King?"

Hatsumi: "Enough. That dance was not enough for your reward."

Hatsumi: "Someone, bring a sword. Someone take her head."

Iruru: ...!?

Tetra: Huh..!?

Shigure: You're really going to flip the script right the end...!?

Tetra: You're really pushing for this ending aren't you.

Hatsumi: "Farewell Salome..."
